Poison God's Heritage

Within the sphere of the God Killing Formation, and right between the two massive First Borns, Shen Bao's ship hovered in space. While the group inside had little knowledge of what was going on around them.

On the other side of the formation, three Sun Stage cultivators and one who seemed to have a cultivation base that could easily overthrow the three suns altogether stood, their Qi completely hidden from praying eyes.

"Where is he?" a man wearing gold and back robes said.

"I sense small almost negligible radiations of Qi from between the Two First Borns," one of the suns stages said.

The man wearing black and golden robes focused his eyes and was able to spot a translucent metallic object, "They're inside that thing," he said.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Do we go and break it open?" one of them asked.

"No need, they're coming out," he said.

And he was right, a woman wearing blue robes and another woman donning a helmet and armor walked out, and among them was their target. The man they needed to capture as he seemed to be the one with authority despite his mediocre cultivation base.

"What are they doing?" a sun stage asked.

"I have no clue," another said.

"They're taking samples," the strongest of the four said.

The Blue Sun aided by Tao Yang were cutting a small piece of the First Born, the creature was large enough it didn't even feel its flesh being torn by Soul Steel.

While they were working, the man wearing purple and golden robes was moving about scanning the body of the First Born, form the looks of this man he seemed quite annoyed and was thinking of something.

"Are you ready?" the man in gold and black spoke.

The other three all nodded in cohesion.

He then pressed both palms on the formation, and it immediately lit up. Showcasing the massive entity of illusion that brightened up the entirety of Solarous and the space around it.

The giant was a sight to behold, and was all they needed to confuse and distract all three cultivators who were busy watching the strange occurrence.

In that moment, the man in black and gold took a single step, and appeared right behind the man in purple, he placed a hand on his shoulder, and with another step, took him from between the still confused Sun Stage cultivators. Read exclusive chapters at empire

It was quick, efficient and instantaneous. The move and action was so fast that even after the bright light from the formation died down, it took several seconds before the two Sun Stages realized that Shen Bao had disappeared.

"Shen Bao?" the Blue Sun asked as she looked around. "Where is he?" she asked Tao Yang.

"I have no idea, he was right next to us," she said as she turned around. Panic began ensuing as they realized something happened to Shen Bao.

Just as they tried to used the bracelet to contact Shen Bao, it signaled to them that it was offline and he cannot be contacted.

"Grab him tight," a man said as he threw me toward three other cultivators. Just as I tried to figure out what was going on, one of them slammed his palm straight into my abdomen.

Blood burst out of my mouth into the open space as my mind felt as if it was rattled by a sledgehammer.

"Hmm, strange, I just broke his Dantian, but seems like it was already shattered, he has no Qi in it anyways," one of them said.

I gasped for breath as two others wrapped my hands behind my back, and placed several talismans on them along with more talismans on my mouth eyes and part of my body.

"Doesn't matter, let's take him to the headquarters. Our mission here is done," he said as he looked back at the formation, "Look at those fools, they still don't understand what happened.

Well, they didn't, I sure as hell knew what happened.

First things first, he didn't break my Dantian, not in a longshot. Since I didn't have a normal one that harbored Qi.

Second, all these guys, I can't beat any of them no matter what I do, they're clearly at the heaven… no, definitely Sun Stage, and the man who kidnapped me is probably higher level since not even the Blue Sun could sense him.

Thirdly, I'm in deep shit. But nothing that I can't handle. I immediately twisted my wrist breaking the bracelet I had on me, if Tao Yang and the Blue Sun were to contact me these guys might use me as a hostage and ask for something unreasonable.

Fourthly, whoever these guys are, they're well aware of everything that we're doing or at least a good portion of it, and are probably the ones who captured the entire planet under the formation.

And finally, I lack information so might as well go along with this play of theirs.

"What's this?" the man in black said as he noticed the broken bracelet.

"Looks like a metallic ornament, check his holding bag, he might have treasures in it," the Sun Stage said.

They forcefully opened my holding bag, not that they'll find anything of use inside it.

"Heavens, you see how many Poison Pills he has… could he be a Poison Cultivator?" one of them asked.

Damn, they're quick on the uptake…

"Doesn't matter, with those seals even if he's a Sun Stage he'd still be unable to move a muscle. Check his holding bag some more, what else does he have?

Nothing really, just a strange thin sword, and pills, and a couple puppet parts…

"Quite brave to come to our Confederation with just these things," the leader spoke.

"He probably left his main tools in the vehicle they were in," one of the three sun stages said.

"Regardless, let's move," the man wearing black said as the three of them flew forward while I got pulled behind by a strange force.

We flew at an incredible rate to only god knows where while I remained silent. While at the same time, I threw a couple small marble ball sized puppets I had on me from the Poison God's Book storage space. That's where I kept everything I needed.

The small balls had recorded everything that happened and were seamless in the darkness of space.

Sometime later.

Inside the first advanced confederation base of the alliance, the group arrived with their prisoner. Shen Bao moved according to his captor's orders and followed along quietly and without making any fuss.

It was to the point that it was nerve wracking that one of the Sun Stages removed the seal on his mouth.

"You're awfully quiet for someone who just been captured," the man said.

"If you wanted me dead, you'd have killed me by now," Shen Bao replied, "So what's the point in panicking?" he asked.

"Shut him up," the man in black said, "I hate smartasses," he groaned as he led them all into a teleportation gate.

They placed the same talisman back on Shen Bao's mouth to make him quiet again.

The group took the gate and appeared in the center of the HQ of the confederation alliance. They dragged Shen Bao along while everyone was watching in anticipation, seeing what would happen from now on.

The four walked with prideful strides as they completed their mission and got up to the upper floor of the HQ.

The meeting which had been running for sometime had yet to end and soon the door opened up.

"Don Ma, you're back already!" the Elder Said.

Don Ma, the man wearing black and gold said, "What did you expect, here's the man you wanted," he said and pushed She Bao forward.

"Seat him there," the Elder said as he gestured to the only empty chair left around the table.

They placed Shen Bao down the chair and then the elder said, "Remove the seal on his mouth, let's hear what he has to say."

Before one of Shen Bao's captors could even move. Shen Bao's presumably sealed arm moved up and tore the talisman out of his mouth and at the same time all the talismans around his body simply turned to ash. "That won't be needed. So, tell me, what do you want from me?" Shen Bao asked in a most cold and indifferent tone any of them ever heard.
