From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master-Chapter 201: Acid Venom Scorpion

Next day.

When Lin Fan was having breakfast in the dining area, he noticed many armed men around.

He casually asked the waiter who was bringing them hot tea.

"What’s the occasion?" Lin Fan asked.

"Oh, those are the armed guards from the guild.

"The guild master’s daughter needs a Nine Dragon Healing Pill, and they are out to find the Dragon’s Tail Grass.

"Which is one of the herbs that’s required."

The waiter replied as he put down the pot of tea on the table.

Lin Fan thought for a moment and asked, "Why the sudden shortage of the Dragon’s Tail Grass? From what I know, it wasn’t something that’s rare."

The waiter looked right and left, making sure there wasn’t anyone around, and said softly, "I wouldn’t know for sure. But it’s best not to talk about it too much."

"Thanks." Lin Fan poured himself a cup of tea and sipped from the teacup.

He sensed a conspiracy from the waiter’s response.

Which was good for them, as the suspicion of killing the merchants wouldn’t fall on them.

The person trying to get rid of the guild master’s daughter would be the prime suspect.

After breakfast, they set off for the journey to the Tiger Jade Mountain.

Only in the snowy areas could they find the Ice Mountain Lotus.

The guards at the entrance were surprised they turned up again.

These noobs just don’t know when to give up, they thought.

And today, with the guild members out in full force, it was nearly impossible for them to be able to find anything.

But Lin Fan couldn’t be bothered with them. Guo He Ru paid the toll fee, and they entered the Medicine Valley.

Lin Fan, Ho Ming, and Guo He Ru trekked through the thick forest for half a day.

They arrived at the foot of the Tiger Jade Mountain at noon.

With the bright sun shining above them, they started searching for the Ice Mountain Lotus.

This time it was relatively easy as the Ice Mountain Lotus had optimum growing conditions here.

They grew in abundance and were easily found if you knew where to look.

Guo He Ru’s knowledge proved to be useful, as he knew the Ice Mountain Lotus tends to grow on the walls of the mountains where there was plenty of sunshine.

They just had to go where the sun was shining brightest.

Lin Fan used his spear and plunged it into the walls of the mountain and used it to stand on as he plucked the Ice Mountain Lotus from the walls.

The Ice Mountain Lotus had a pale white appearance like snow.

Its roots were about one meter long, and Lin Fan had to immediately store them in his storage artifact.

The basket they brought wasn’t big enough to hold them.

When he was done, he dropped and held onto the shaft of the spear.

Then he used his legs and kicked at the mountain walls to pull the spear out.

And while descending, he used his Chain Leap and stepped into the air to slow his fall.

With that, he was able to land safely back on the ground.

"Great, now we can go back and conjure the Heavenly Rejuvenate Pills that you need.

"I can’t wait for you to witness my talents in Alchemy Cultivation."

Guo He Ru said excitedly.

His venture out to the Medicine Valley was sneered at by the other elders.

Now, he had proven them wrong and shown that he could gather the required herbs by himself.

Lin Fan, however, wasn’t so eager to leave yet.

The cave marked on the map was just nearby.

He was thinking of killing the Acid Venom Scorpion.

"I have some matters to attend to first," Lin Fan said as he took out the map and oriented himself.

"Do you need my help?" Ho Ming asked, knowing Lin Fan was up to something risky again.

"Sure, you and Guo He Ru stay at some distance first. Let me first probe how strong the Acid Venom Scorpion is," Lin Fan replied.

Ho Ming nodded, and Guo He Ru had no choice but to follow them.

When they reached the area near the cave where the Acid Venom Scorpion was, they smelled an awful stench coming toward them as the wind blew.

It smelled of death and corpses decaying in the cold and wet climate.

"Hide behind this bush while I lure it out first. Ho Ming, I will call for your help if I need to."

Lin Fan briefed them as he walked toward the cave alone.

He stepped outside the cave and waited.

There were bits of cloth, items like swords, and coins strewn all over the area.

The rocks around him were uneven and had a spiky feel to them.

This Venom Acid Scorpion must have taken many people’s lives.

Nothing happened for some time as the cold wind blew at him from the cave.

Suddenly, a familiar sound erupted in his mind.

[Ding!]

[Detected soul with malevolent intent incoming!]

[Terminate Acid Venom Scorpion with malevolent intent for 500 vengeance points.]

Lin Fan heightened his alert as he saw the vengeance points.

But the Acid Venom Scorpion was nowhere to be seen.

He used the Sound Memory ability and listened carefully.

Rustle.

The sand and rocks underneath his feet moved.

Lin Fan quickly leaped to the side.

Boom.

The ground exploded as the tail of the Acid Venom Scorpion shot out from it.

It sprayed out green liquid, and the liquid melted the rocks as it hit the ground.

Smoke came out of the rocks as the acid venom worked its way through.

Then the tail disappeared back into the ground again.

Lin Fan gripped his spear tightly as he anticipated the next attack from the Acid Venom Scorpion.

Rustle.

He heard the soil and ground moving again.

With his Chain Leap ability, he tried to get away from the attack.

But this time, he wasn’t fast enough.

Some of the acid venom sprayed onto his legs.

"Argh."

He gave out a muted cry as the acid venom tried to burn through his skin.
