Hearing this, Ye Cangtian immediately let out a cold laugh and said indifferently, "You think this counts as fulfilling your promise? Or are you trying to dismiss me like this?"
"Huh?"
Han Weicao's smile instantly froze on his face, and his heart tightened. He asked, "Ye Cangtian, what do you mean by this?"
"The meaning is very simple: until I get the exact location, you won't die!"
Ye Cangtian gave a cold smile, and the Heavenly Eye between his brows suddenly opened.
It was obvious that Ye Cangtian intended to use torture to extract information. Han Weicao immediately began to struggle.
However, no matter how much he struggled, he could not break free from Ye Cangtian's grasp.
The next moment, after a psychic energy shot into his brain, he abruptly stopped struggling, and all that remained was his continuous, sharp screams.
There was no other way. Organizations as evil as the Five Poisons Sect were absolute tumors on the Huaxia Ruins, and Ye Cangtian was determined to eradicate them.
For this, he could only resort to some ruthless methods.
Three minutes later, the screams stopped.
Han Weicao regained consciousness from the pain. When he looked at Ye Cangtian again, his eyes, in addition to the increased fear, also held a hint of excitement.
The more powerful Ye Cangtian appeared, the more excited he became.
The reason was simple: the other party was definitely poisoned. By sacrificing his life, he would cripple Ye Cangtian, and this deal was not a loss.
After all, Ye Cangtian, at such a young age, could reach the Heavenly level, making him an absolute prodigy.
And he, at his age, only reached the Earth level through various poisons. The gap between them was inherently vast, hence his thought process.
"Now can you tell me where the Ten Thousand Poisons Rainforest is?"
"If you don't tell me, I can only double the punishment time!"
"Oh, and a friendly reminder, that was just three minutes..."
Ye Cangtian paid no mind to Han Weicao's demeanor and continued to press for the crucial information.
"What's the use of telling you?"
"Do you think you can go to the Ten Thousand Poisons Rainforest?"
"Don't dream! Your time is limited. If you don't believe me, look at your palm!"
Han Weicao glanced at Ye Cangtian, his face filled with mockery.
The poisons on his body were all potent, capable of causing instant death even to an Earth level expert upon contact.
Only quasi-Heavenly and Heavenly level supreme experts could suppress it with their profound cultivation, but it was essentially just buying time.
Yet, judging by Ye Cangtian's expression, he clearly hadn't realized he was poisoned. In that case, the other party would only die faster.
Because once the poisoning was discovered, it might be irreversible.
"My palm?" Ye Cangtian smiled and looked at the other person.
"That's right, your palm!"
Han Weicao nodded and continued, "Do you think my neck was easy to grab? Let me tell you, my entire body is covered in poison. Even a trace of contact will be fatal!"
"Hahaha... This is the funniest joke I've heard today!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian burst into laughter. As he laughed, he presented his palm to Han Weicao.
"This..."
Upon seeing Ye Cangtian's palm, which appeared perfectly normal, Han Weicao was stunned.
"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
"The poisons on my body are basically incurable, ancient and potent poisons. Why are you immune?"
"Could you be the legendary Ten Thousand Poisons Physique?"
Han Weicao seemed disoriented, unable to believe what he was seeing. But in an instant, something suddenly came to his mind.
Legend had it that there was a special physique called the Ten Thousand Poisons Physique.
It was said that those who possessed this physique could be immune to all poisons.
Furthermore, they had a unique ability to absorb poisons and convert them into cultivation, thereby rapidly increasing their cultivation level.
Given Ye Cangtian's Heavenly level attainment at such a young age, his cultivation speed was astonishing.
If he possessed the Ten Thousand Poisons Physique, then everything would make sense, making it more plausible than merely exceptional talent!
"Whatever you say it is, it is!"
In response, Ye Cangtian did not argue. He had no intention of revealing the unique aspects of his cultivation technique, and since the other party had provided an explanation, he might as well accept it.
"It really is the legendary Ten Thousand Poisons Physique!"
"Heavens! Why?"
"Why didn't the Ten Thousand Poisons Physique appear in the Five Poisons Sect..."
Upon hearing Ye Cangtian's words, Han Weicao suddenly knelt on the ground and roared at the heavens.
The Ten Thousand Poisons Physique was an excellent constitution for cultivating poison techniques and poisons. Not only could it rapidly increase cultivation through poisons, but most importantly, it granted immunity to toxins.
Even for them, their bodies were affected to some extent when cultivating poison techniques and using poisons.
These accumulated effects made it difficult for them to break through bottlenecks and become true powerhouses.
This was also why the Five Poisons Sect had not had many powerful figures stationed within it to date.
If that were not the case, the ruins would not have only five peak forces, but six.
"What are you howling about!"
"I don't have time to waste with you. I'm asking you, where exactly is the Ten Thousand Poisons Rainforest?"
Listening to Han Weicao's lament, Ye Cangtian grew impatient. He directly interrupted the other party and questioned him again.
At his words, Han Weicao's gaze returned to Ye Cangtian.
He remained silent for a moment, then slowly said, "In the northern region, north of Chu Tian Han Guang, there is a hot rainforest, filled with countless poisonous insects..."
"The northern region?"
Ye Cangtian's brow furrowed. Although he had never heard of the Ten Thousand Poisons Rainforest, he was aware of the climate in different regions of the ruins.
The hottest region should logically be the southern region, where the probability of finding a rainforest would be highest.
However, the northern region was the coldest area in the ruins, said to be perpetually frigid. Under such conditions, how could a rainforest exist?
Pondering this, he looked at Han Weicao and said indifferently, "I advise you to tell the truth. How can there be a rainforest in the frigid north!"
Upon hearing this, Han Weicao chuckled and said, "The world is vast and full of wonders! Just as in the eyes of most people in the outside world, the ruins are a legend, or something that shouldn't exist, but in reality, it does..."
"Hmm?"
Ye Cangtian's brow furrowed at this explanation.
This statement held a certain degree of truth. One could not simply assume something did not exist just because they thought so.
Moreover, he had previously followed the guidance of the Four Seals to the southern region.
Although the route at that time was somewhat limited, he had not found anything resembling the Ten Thousand Poisons Rainforest. Thus, it was possible that such a unique place did exist in the northern region.
With this thought, Ye Cangtian began to believe him to some extent. He then said, "Alright, I've asked what I needed to ask. I said before that anyone who lays a hand on Dongfang Mingyue will face certain death!
Do you wish to end it yourself, or shall I do it?"
Han Weicao let out a wry smile upon hearing this and said, "I admit defeat, having fallen into your hands! However, I want to tell you, don't waste your physique. Join the Five Poisons Sect instead, so you won't let yourself down..."
Han Weicao genuinely wished for Ye Cangtian to join the Five Poisons Sect.
If that were the case, the Five Poisons Sect would also have a Heavenly level expert, and they would surely ascend to the ranks of peak forces.
Concurrently, Ye Cangtian could use his Ten Thousand Poisons Physique to enhance his cultivation.
If this happened, he might even break through the Heavenly level and become a legendary existence in the near future.
In other words, the wish was beautiful, but difficult to realize.
Han Weicao knew this and understood that he couldn't change Ye Cangtian's mind immediately, nor would he live to see that day.
He could only hope that Ye Cangtian would later recognize the benefits of joining the Five Poisons Sect and change his mind.
With this thought, Han Weicao drew a dagger and, without a word, plunged it into his own chest.
Alas!
Looking at Han Weicao, who had fallen to the ground, Ye Cangtian sighed helplessly and said, "It's a pity I don't have the Ten Thousand Poisons Physique, and more importantly, I would never join an evil organization like the Five Poisons Sect..."
With that, Ye Cangtian returned to the headquarters of the Hidden Group.
