Chapter 2478 Flesh And Qi Strangling Poison
Lin Mu's voice was astonis.h.i.+ng to everyone present in the hall and alarmed them to no extent.
But more than that, they were threatened by the extreme weight that was currently bearing down on them and they had no idea how.
"W-Who!?" The Great Dagger asked with difficulty.
He was the only one among them that was currently on his knees instead of just lying flat like the others. It was understandable due to his Cultivation base that was at the Fifth Tribulation Stage of the Immortal Realm which now became apparent.
~SHUA~
"HAH!" He released his power, to resist the weight and actually managed to raise himself enough that his hands were now off the ground.
Lin Mu who saw this simply pointed his hand at him and lightly uttered a word.
"Meld." As soon as he did, the Great Dagger felt as if his body all the way up to his neck were encased in concrete, making him unable to move at all.
This was different than the immobilization from the weight as he couldn't even feel the Qi from the air. "What is this??" The Great Dagger was confused.
~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~
But Lin Mu had no intention of answering as he quickly restrained the others with Meld too, sealing their heads as well to prevent them from killing themselves.
"Hmm… you should know the most among them." Lin Mu reckoned and approached the Great Dagger.
The man finally laid his eyes upon Lin Mu and soon recognized him.
"The Imperial Imperator!" he finally recognized him. 'How did he get in here?' the man was utterly confused.
After all, there were no signs of him infiltrating from anywhere. He had neither broken through the roof and neither had he come through the door. Since there were no other means of entering, it was as if the man had directly manifested inside the hall.
"You got that right." Lin Mu replied. "Now open up," he said before holding the man's jaw firmly.
~POP~
He then emptied the liquid contents of a small bottle inside his mouth.
~WOONG~
Then, exerting a bit of his Qi and using the Bending Will Fists, Lin Mu forced a short burst of wind into the man's throat, causing the liquid to reach his stomach within a second, leaving the man no chance to resist.
"Ugh… What did you… Wad dit yu fid… e…" the man tried to ask but found his mouth getting numb.
The numbness rapidly spread from his mouth to his neck and the rest of his body. And it wasn't just his muscles that were going numb either, even his Qi seemingly slowed down and his meridians started constricting.
"HNNNNNNG!" The man was paralyzed but still trembled, as a nerves wracking pain a.s.saulted his senses.
This was none other the pain from his Meridians constricting shut. It was similar to a person's entire body spasming due to Teta.n.u.s and was rather horrible for one to bear. But this was something necessary to ensure that the man didn't kill himself like the others or by the restriction that they seem to have on their brains.
'Does he have it too?' Lin Mu wondered if a high ranked member like the Great Dagger would be subject to it or not. 'Let's see…' he then directly probed the man's body with his immortal sense, causing him to tremble even more.
When one's meridians were constricted shut and the flow of Qi was interrupted, even the slightest intrusion of a foreign Qi would cause a sharp pain, as if a needle was traveling through their body.
This was all due to the poison that Lin Mu had used.
It was a special paralyzing poison called as Flesh And Qi Strangling Poison.
This was of course made by none other than Crown Princess Shang and Lin Mu had several bottles of it leftover from a while back. He had used some of it when making the Herbsbane Arrows, but it hadn't been the best.
As such he had simply stored them for later, and now it was finally coming in handy. Granted it was a rather harsh poison and was not something Lin Mu would usually use on someone. But he knew the people he was facing were not worth the mercy and he had to be harsh with them.
It was something he might have hesitated to do in the past, but having gone through the Expedition and the Eight years of Astral Dimension 'trip' he was a lot more decisive.
'Hmm… He does seem to have a restriction.' Lin Mu could sense a tiny knot of Qi that was seemingly present in the man's brain.
He only perceived it from the faint fluctuations it released now that the rest of the man's Qi was constricted. He didn't dare to touch it directly with his Immortal Sense for the fear that it might trigger and kill the man regardless.
'If it was normally, this restriction might not even be visible due to the Qi flooding it.' Lin Mu reckoned this was the method of masking they used. 'Though removing this would have to be done by experts.' He knew this wasn't something he could do himself.
While he was a formation master, the restrictions placed on bodies weren't something he was versed in.
Plus he didn't think it was a normal formation restriction either.
'Is it a curse perhaps?' Lin Mu wondered and tried to sense more from it but couldn't do much.
"That's a Curse for sure." Xukong spoke up. "Ah, that'll make things tough then." Lin Mu knew removing those was not simple. "Though the Imperial Court should have people who specialize in it." He hoped.
"They might not, but the Temple of the Four Guardian Beasts surely will have them." Xukong replied, making Lin Mu relieved.
"That's good." Lin Mu said before repeating the process for the other members too, securing them for the transport that was already on the way.
Lin Mu only waited for about five minutes before he heard a bunch of foot steps.
