Chapter 479: Chapter 479: Use Him as an Experiment

"What’s going on?" Xin Badao frowned and asked Yan Dujiu, who was taking Tang Ming’s pulse.

"This is bad, this guy’s body might have developed an immunity to the Bone-Eroding Tendon-Separating Powder. Instead of taking effect, the poison has been digested along with the food in his stomach and intestines."

Yan Dujiu shouted with an ashen face, "I estimate that from now on, poisons weaker than Bone-Eroding Tendon-Separating Powder and the Three Corpse Brain Elixir will have no effect on him!"

"Wow, does that mean I’ll be immune to all poisons in the future?" Tang Ming suddenly got excited and laughed, saying,

"Hahaha, I thought that without the Detoxification Pill, falling into the hands of the Poison Sect would definitely mean death by poison. I didn’t expect to become immune to all poisons!"

"Damn it, damn it."

Hearing this, Xin Badao cursed through clenched teeth. If someone hadn’t acted recklessly, how could Tang Ming have ended up like this?

Chu Batian stood to the side with an expressionless face, observing with his nose and contemplating with his heart, completely unmoved.

Long Duba and Mei Dufeng, on the other hand, looked nervous, realizing they had caused a big disaster.

"You little brat, don’t celebrate too early!" Yan Dujiu glared at Tang Ming and said coldly,

"This isn’t something to be glad about; it’s just that you’ve consumed a large amount of poison before, and due to the principle of fighting poison with poison, your body has temporarily developed a poison immunity."

"So what? As long as the minor poisons no longer affect me, what can you do to me, huh?"

Tang Ming grinned and said, relieved, "Originally, the poisons of your Poison Sect really troubled me, like that Bone-Eroding Tendon-Separating Powder. If it had acted a few more times, I would have been forced to confess everything just to survive. But now I’m immune to all poisons, what can you do to me, huh?"

"Hmph, the Poison Sect has many poisons much stronger than the Bone-Eroding Tendon-Separating Powder. If you don’t confess honestly, then I will have no choice but to use even more powerful poisons on you!"

Yan Dujiu warned with a cold face.

"Oh my, trying to scare me, huh!" Tang Ming retorted, confident and unafraid, "I’m immune to all poisons now; I’m not afraid of your threats. If you’re capable, then bring it on!"

"You..."

Yan Dujiu was infuriated by Tang Ming, his job being to develop fearsome poisons that instill terror, but Tang Ming’s attitude was extremely annoying to him.

"Sect Master, I request to incarcerate Tang Ming in Yunhai Courtyard. I want to use the poisons I’ve developed to torture him!"

Yan Dujiu looked at Xin Badao and requested through clenched teeth.

"Granted!" Xin Badao nodded, glancing at Chu Batian and the others meaningfully and said,

"Incarcerate him in Yunhai Courtyard, which will prevent certain people from doing something to him in secret, affecting your research and interrogation. Furthermore, I will issue an order that no one but me and the staff of Yunhai Courtyard are allowed to see Tang Ming."

"Sect Master, we were the ones who captured Tang Ming. Why can’t we see him?"

Long Duba glanced at Chu Batian and protested unhappily.

"Isn’t it because of your reckless actions that he has become immune to all poisons? Isn’t that reason enough?"

Xin Badao looked at Long Duba coldly and inquired.

Long Duba quickly shut his mouth, as they were indeed at fault to begin with and now lacked the boldness to argue with Xin Badao.

Chu Batian shared the same sentiment; previously, Xin Badao had also proposed to interrogate Tang Ming privately, and at that time, he was firmly opposed to it. However, now he had lost the capital to argue.

"Hey, you guys are not really going to use me for experiments, are you?" Tang Ming revealed a panicked expression, shouting fiercely and rapidly:

"I’m now immune to all poisons; your poison has no effect on me. Would you just let me go?"

"Kid, I’ll show you the power of our Poison Sect’s Yunhai Institute; sooner or later, I will make you confess."

Yan Dujiu watched Tang Ming with an excited expression. Having such a subject with poison resistance capabilities seemed not to be a bad thing for him.

Afterward, Tang Ming was transferred to the high-tech cell in Yunhai Institute, and from then on, he would endure Yan Dujiu’s "inhumane" poison medicinal research.

After leaving the cell, Chu Batian, with a gloomy face, summoned Long Duba and Mei Dufeng to his room.

"Have you two got water in your brains? Why did you go torment Tang Ming? If you hadn’t recklessly fed him poisons, how could he have successfully employed poison against poison and developed immunity to poison?"

Chu Batian berated them relentlessly.

Long Duba and Mei Dufeng did not dare to retort and nodded obediently, though they felt indignant inside. After all, it was Chu Batian who had first tried to poison Tang Ming, and he had used the fatally potent Three Corpse Brain Elixir, much more virulent than their chronic poisons. Even if it was poison against poison, it was surely the poison power of the Three Corpse Brain Elixir that played the main role.

"Elder Uncle, there’s no point in talking about this now. Shouldn’t we be thinking about what to do next?"

After being scolded, Long Duba spoke up timidly, reminding him.

"Hmph, what can we do now?" Chu Batian snorted coldly, narrowing his eyes and said:

"Chu Batian has already taken Tang Ming to the Yunhai Institute. It will be much harder to interrogate him in the future."

"What if the Sect Master really does get the secret of the Detoxification Pill? Wouldn’t that be disastrous for us?"

Mei Dufeng reminded with concern.

"Yes!" Chu Batian sighed, his eyes flickering with a ruthless light:

"If Chu Batian gets the secret of the Detoxification Pill, then our poison skills would be rendered useless. If he decides to deal with us then, we would only have a dead end. So, no matter what, we cannot just sit idly by."

"What do you mean?" Long Duba and Mei Dufeng’s faces shifted, watching Chu Batian with uncertainty.

"Keep a constant watch on the news from Yunhai Institute, and the moment you hear any information about Tang Ming confessing, come back and tell me immediately."

Chu Batian commanded with no room for doubt, murmuring to himself ominously:

"It seems I must implement my plan ahead of schedule to ensure the safety of us all!"

After Tang Ming was transferred to Yunhai Institute, Yan Dujiu immediately fed Tang Ming all sorts of poisons that were excruciating yet not lethal, and the results...

In the face of these poisons, sometimes Tang Ming showed no reaction at all, and other times he continued to suffer unbearably for a while before it was over.

Of course, at this moment, Tang Ming’s unbearable suffering was all an act; he didn’t want Yan Dujiu to discover the real reason for his poison resistance. He was just giving the impression that his immunity to poison was continuously improving.

In light of this situation, Yan Dujiu was nearly driven mad; not being sure to what extent Tang Ming’s poison immunity had grown, he did not dare to use the fierce poisons like the Myriad Poison Pill. He was afraid that if he accidentally killed Tang Ming, then the trouble would be enormous.

Therefore, in the following period, Yan Dujiu frantically developed poisons that were fierce in nature but not enough to kill. As soon as he had a new poison, he would eagerly administer it to Tang Ming, hoping to make him confess.
