Chapter 1671 Ten Thousand Poison Body!

Jonathan exchanged a glance with Julie first before speaking again.

"Have you ever heard of a physique called the Ten Thousand Poison Body?"

The moment those words entered his ears, Max's expression changed slightly. Naturally, he had heard of it before.

Back when he was still within the Black Dragon Clan, Max had spent enormous amounts of time reading through ancient records and books related to physiques, bloodlines, cultivation constitutions, and forbidden powers.

Because of that, he possessed at least some understanding regarding the Ten Thousand Poison Body.

"I have heard of it. It is considered one of the most terrifying cursed physiques recorded in the ancient eras. If I remember correctly, the Ten Thousand Poison Body is not a physique people are born with naturally through ordinary bloodline inheritance. Instead, it is something far stranger and far more dangerous."

Max continued.

"It is said that individuals possessing the Ten Thousand Poison Body are cursed by fate itself. The exact origins of the physique remain unclear because even the oldest surviving records regarding it are incomplete. However, one thing has always remained consistent throughout every historical account. The Ten Thousand Poison Body is extremely deadly."

As Max spoke those words, even the atmosphere inside the pavilion gradually became heavier.

"The body of someone possessing this physique naturally generates terrifying poison energy from birth. That poison is not ordinary toxin. It is a highly evolved poisonous force capable of corroding flesh, spiritual energy, bloodlines, organs, and eventually even the soul itself. The truly horrifying aspect of the Ten Thousand Poison Body is that the poison does not merely affect outsiders. It affects the owner as well."

Jonathan's expression darkened noticeably while Julie's fingers unconsciously tightened slightly.

"From the moment someone with the Ten Thousand Poison Body is born, their body continuously produces stronger and stronger poison energy over time. At first, the symptoms may remain manageable. However, as the years pass, the poison gradually begins consuming the user from within. Their internal organs weaken first, then their blood, then their meridians, and eventually even their spiritual energy itself becomes poisonous."

Max's expression gradually became more solemn as he continued.

"In the later stages, even remaining close to someone possessing a fully awakened Ten Thousand Poison Body can become dangerous because their mere presence can spread poison unconsciously into the surrounding environment. Plants wither around them. Spirit beasts die near them. Even powerful cultivators can gradually become infected after prolonged exposure."

The silence inside the pavilion grew increasingly heavy.

"The cruelest part is that the stronger the owner becomes, the stronger the poison becomes as well. That is why the Ten Thousand Poison Body is considered a cursed physique instead of a heaven-defying physique despite its terrifying potential. Although the physique grants overwhelming poisonous power capable of making even powerful cultivators fear them, the owner themselves is also slowly dying the entire time."

Max slowly narrowed his eyes afterward.

"In most historical records, people possessing the Ten Thousand Poison Body rarely live long lives. Many die young. Others lose their sanity from the constant pain and poison corrosion. In some cases, the poison eventually completely loses control and devours both the owner and everyone around them."

The moment Max finished speaking, his gaze slowly shifted toward Julie.

The tension on her face already told him more than enough.

Her expression was unusually strained while a faint sense of exhaustion could be seen hidden deep within her eyes. Even the spiritual aura around her felt slightly unstable now that Max paid closer attention to it.

At that moment, Max immediately understood the situation.

"Is she…?" Max asked quietly while looking toward Jonathan.

Jonathan slowly nodded.

"Yes," he replied heavily. "Julie possesses the Ten Thousand Poison Body."

The atmosphere inside the pavilion instantly became even heavier.

"Right now, we are only able to suppress the poison temporarily using several special treasures," Jonathan continued. "Those treasures prevent the poison from leaking out of her body and affecting the surroundings, but this is only a temporary solution."

Jonathan's fists tightened slightly afterward.

"The poison inside her body is still growing stronger with time. It is already slowly destroying her from within. Unless we completely remove the poison one day, she will eventually die."

Julie remained silent throughout the entire conversation, but the slight lowering of her gaze already revealed enough.

Jonathan let out a slow breath before continuing again.

"There is only one treasure known to possess the ability to completely erase the poison inside someone with the Ten Thousand Poison Body."

"The Poison Erosion Fruit."

The moment those words were spoken, Max's eyes narrowed slightly.

Jonathan's expression became increasingly solemn afterward.

"However, the Poison Erosion Fruit is unbelievably rare. Some ancient records even claim it has already gone extinct entirely. Finding one is nearly impossible."

Then Jonathan looked directly at Max.

"But according to my sources, the Poison Erosion Fruit still exists."

A faint hope appeared within his eyes afterward.

"And the only force currently known to possibly possess it…"

Jonathan paused briefly before finishing his sentence.

"Is the War God Palace."

Then he continued quietly.

"I heard that you have some connection with the War God Palace."

"That is why we need your help."

Max fell silent after hearing Jonathan's explanation.

The pavilion became unusually quiet afterward.

His gaze slowly shifted toward Julie once again while countless thoughts flashed through his mind silently. Now that he knew about the Ten Thousand Poison Body, many things about her suddenly began making sense to him.

The faint instability within her aura.

The unusual tension she constantly carried.

Even the subtle traces of suppression treasures hidden around her body.

Everything finally connected together.

Meanwhile, Julie remained silent beneath Max's gaze, though the pressure surrounding the conversation had clearly become heavier for her.

Several moments passed before Max finally looked back toward Jonathan.

Then he spoke calmly.

"I can help her."

The moment those words fell, both Jonathan and Julie's expressions changed immediately.

However, before either of them could speak, Max continued.

"But I have two conditions."

His voice remained calm, yet serious.

"And both of those conditions must be agreed to first."

Jonathan immediately stepped forward slightly without even hesitating.

"What are the conditions?" he asked hurriedly.

At that moment, Jonathan no longer cared about anything else.

As long as there was even a possibility of curing Julie's Ten Thousand Poison Body, he was willing to accept almost any price.
