Chapter 512 - Underground Poison

Jana and Xila didn't know what Rean was trying to do. However, they were in front of all the other experts. It would be quite embarrassing to show that they were afraid of Rean.

"What do you want to do?"

Rean laughed, not minding their tones as he responded.

"It's fine. Senior Jana and Xila couldn't be thinking that I would kill you or something like that, right? Don't worry, this is beneficial."

Roan was also beside Rean as he looked at the low-leveled Lakure Race members coming at them. He was ready to enter the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm if those guys didn't stop.

Jana narrowed her eyes in response. If she didn't do anything, Rean and Roan would definitely be attacked. However, she felt that something was off about Rean's attitude. At least, she couldn't feel any malice behind that action. Eventually, just as the two were about to be attacked, Jana extended her hand.

"Wait."

Everyone stopped just a couple dozen of meters away from the twins. Unlike those at the Nascent Soul Realm and above, they didn't have to show mercy to the twins. They only stopped because Jana said so.

"Very well, let's see what you want to do."

Xila then looked at Jana as she gave her hand to Rean. Just a little bit, and he would see the twins being torn to shreds, so why was she following his words?

"Are you sure?"

Jana nodded.

"I'm curious to see what he's trying to do to the point that they refused to escape. They're currently surrounded, and they don't even have an inkling of a chance to escape. Don't you think that's odd?"

Xila shrugged his shoulders.

"Well, up to you. I doubt they can run either way. You won't try to protect them against the lower-level cultivators, right?"

Jana shook her head.

"I won't. For now, let's see what he can do."

Rean smiled in gratitude.

"Thank you for the chance, senior."

Rean then grabbed Jana's hands. As for Xila, he didn't seem willing to do so, but he didn't leave Jana's side either.

'Life Style, Third Form, Purification!'

Rean's body burst out with Light and Dark Elements, quickly entering Jana's body. As always, the Light Element protected her body while the Dark Element eliminated everything that Rean considered harmful to the body.

Back when Rean and Roan captured a Lakure Race member, Rean checked his body to see what was different between them and normal humans. It was then that he found out that there was some kind of poison that he had never seen before running through their bodies. It wasn't enough to kill them, but it was definitely excruciating.

Rean thought that the guy they caught was just an exception. However, during the attacks on the other Red Crystals, he took the chance to examine the enemies' bodies once again. In the end, all of them had one thing in common, that same poison. Nevertheless, since they were enemies, Rean didn't care too much about it. Since that made things worse for the Lakure Race members, then so be it.

However, what happened here in the valley had changed Rean's plans. For some reason, that so-called Ancestor didn't want the high-level Lakure Cultivators to kill the low-level ones. That went against what they had seen in the city before. Why did he give that order? Why didn't he say that before? What was that Ancestor planning to do? Rean thought that running away wouldn't give him that answer. Even if they captured the low-level Lakure Race members, those members wouldn't know anything. That being said, he could only find answers from the top brass like Jana and Xila.

Jana couldn't help but feel the comfort from Rean's Light Element. However, her cultivation was several times higher than Rean's, so his Light Element had a hard time passing through her body. Nevertheless, it felt quite pleasing, just not enough to bring out a moan like what happened to Tiria and the others.

The Dark Element quickly followed suit. Obviously, it targeted the poison that ran through Jana's body. Once again, her cultivation was too high, so the Dark Element also worked very slowly. Of course, that wasn't all. The poison had been inside her for hundreds of years, so it had basically integrated into her cells. High cultivation and time, these two elements, made Rean's work really complicated.

However, Jana immediately noticed what Rean was doing as her eyes widened and her mouth went agape! With her Spiritual Sense, she could tell that the poison that had been running through her body almost her entire life was being eliminated bit by bit. Rean would need at least a few hours at that rate, and she didn't know if he could take care of all of it. Then again, she couldn't help but start to feel excited.

On Rean's side, he began to feel tired just a few minutes into the purification process. In the end, he needed a lot of Spiritual Energy just to be barely able to run his Light and Dark Element into Jana's body. However, just as Rean was about to take a few Spirit Stones out, several Rank Four Spirit Stones appeared in Rean's hands.

He then looked at Jana, who was still shocked by his ability.

"Take it! It doesn't matter how much Spiritual Energy you need. Make sure you see it to the end!"

Rean laughed before nodding his head.

"Oh! That's quite generous. I'll be using these Spirit Stones, then."

Rank Four Spirit Stones. Even Roan was surprised that Jana would go as far as using them for this.

However, all the experts and the waiting low-level Lakure Race cultivators were puzzled. Just what was Rean doing that Jana had decided to even use Rank Four Spirit Stones? Even for them, Rank Four Spirit Stones were quite hard to come by. All they could see was how Rean and Jana shone due to Rean's Light Element.

Xila couldn't hold his curiosity anymore, though.

"What are you two doing? Why is it taking so long? If you keep me waiting, I'll give the order to attack these brats."

Jana's expression immediately darkened when she heard that statement, responding.

"I'll kill you if you do that. I swear to the heavens that I'll be your eternal enemy for life!"

Xila and everyone else were taken aback by Jana's harsh words. However, Xila's expression darkened in response.

"You...! I might be one stage below you in cultivation, but do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Jana snorted as she said.

"Just shut up and send your Spiritual Energy together with your Spiritual Sense into my body, idiot. I refuse to believe you'll order to kill this brat after seeing what he's doing."

Xila's dark expression changed into that of surprise. Just what could make Jana so certain about it? He knew that she hated the people from the surface as much as he did. Though, he would obtain his answer soon enough.

Rean couldn't help but smile subconsciously. That was the kind of result he was expecting.

Xila immediately put his hand on Jana's shoulder and did as she asked. His Spiritual Energy went into her body, making it easier for his Spiritual Sense to pass through. He examined Jana's body for a few minutes when all of a sudden, Xila's eyes opened wide!

"Impossible! Even Ancestor's power isn't enough to do that! How can this brat do such a thing?!"

Jana nodded before asking.

"Do you still want to kill them?"

"I..."

Xila couldn't answer. The poison had been the Lakure Race's nightmare for way too long. Although it couldn't take their lives, it made them quite miserable. He lost count of how many times he dreamed about getting rid of it.

Jana then looked at the low-level cultivators who were waiting for her order to attack the twins.

"All of you, go back and do your own things. None of you are allowed to attack these twins unless they attack first or do something that could endanger our plans. Make sure everyone else knows about it as well."

Rean and Roan couldn't help but think that things were going better than they thought. Of course, that was a good thing.

Xila, who seemed to be having an internal conflict, didn't say anything. He absolutely didn't want to obtain help from the humans on the surface. However, he definitely wanted to get his poison removed as well.

Soon after that, Jana and Xila began to receive Spiritual Sense messages from the other experts observing the event. After all, they still didn't know what was happening there. Naturally, Jana explained to them what Rean was doing for her.

"What?!"

"He can heal the underground world poison?"

"You're kidding, right?"

"But I don't think Senior Jana would joke about such a thing."

"Hey, they're humans from the surface. Is it really okay to accept their help?"

"I also want to kill them all, but the poison..."

In less than an instant, a conflict arose in everyone's minds. If it was anything else, they would definitely refuse any help from their most hated foes. But when it came to the underground poison, the answer wasn't so easy.

Rean noticed how the experts around them were filled with confused expressions and took the chance to ask.

"Senior Jana, what is this underground poison? My healing skill can indeed take care of it. However, I have studied multiples types of poison in the past, but none of them looked like this thing. It can't kill you if you use your Spiritual Energy to keep it at bay. Unfortunately, this is quite a strong poison that can still cause a lot of pain. How come everyone is affected by it?"

Jana narrowed her eyes as she thought about it. That wasn't a topic their Lakure Race members liked to talk about.
