42 - The inner disciples selection (04)

Silence overtook the outer disciples' arena as the female elder knelt beside the poisoned disciple, picked him up in her arms and carried him towards the sect's medicine pavilion.

Elder Tian looked at Tianming with disapproval, but did nothing.

The sect was quite liberal, any kind of cultivation that didn't directly follow the unorthodox paths was allowed.

Poison was right on the border between orthodox and unorthodox, but it hardly chose sides.

After all, medicine was just a poison in a dosage low enough not to kill. How could they ban it?

What really intrigued the elder was the origin of that power.

Tianming had a sword spirit root, had he awakened a new spirit root like Feiyan?

No, that was impossible, two miracles couldn't happen like that in such a short period of time.

'He must have consumed some kind of poisonous essence...' Elder Tian concluded as he shook his head.
