Chapter 1740: The Destined Toad was Upset
Ye Xiao widely opened his eyes. He knew what was tying these people up all of a sudden. It must be the long and special tongue of the toadā¦
He was probably right about that, becauseā¦ When he flew over the Foggy Miasma Mountain, he encountered an incredibly long tongue in the skyā¦
Well, he cut the tongue that was attacking him with one sword strikeā¦
After what had happened, Ye Xiao finally realized why the poisonous fog suddenly changedā¦ Because he cut the tongue of the monster with one sword attack, the blood that came out from the wound of the tongue became the poisonous fog. When the toad was hurt, Ye Xiao saw the blood became poisonous fog, so he was certain about itā¦ In fact, the more important part of the toad was cut, the blood became more powerful poison!
The most important part of the Destined Toad was its tongue. It was also the most horrible and harmful part of the toad.
The tongue could be long, or short, or thick, or thinā¦ I was flexible and agile. Normally, weapons couldnāt easily cut it. Most importantly, over ninety percent of the poison in the toadās body was in the tongue.
What Ye Xiao did must be quite a surprise. The toad didnāt have time to react. One-third of its tongue was cut off by Ye Xiao and that was why the poisonous fog became tens of thousands denser than usual!
The beast had lived on the Foggy Miasma Mountain for hundreds of thousands of years. How powerful was the poison that it had collected for hundreds of thousands of years? It must have swallowed and absorbed so much poison from other poisonous creatures! It was unimaginableā¦
Its tongue suddenly got cut and it almost lost half of its tongueā¦ No wonder the Foggy Miasma Mountain would become so much more horrible.
The Destined Toad must be quite upset and angry about it.
It didnāt mess with anybody, just stayed on this mountain peacefully. Maybe it just came up with an idea, or just felt hungry after sleeping for a long time, so it opened its eyes and saw a few humans casually flying over its head. Well, it must have had annoyed the toadā¦
The toad unconcernedly reached its tongue to the sky. Three men were not much for the toad, but when it was hungry, it was better than nothing!
It was a subconscious move to reach the tongue up. It didnāt even use any power. It was a predatory move in the nature of an animal!
That casual move brought the toad misery! Unexpected to the toad, one of the three men wasnāt just some ordinary cultivator. His martial art perfectly overpowered its poison and the sword of the man was some incredible divine weapon that the toad had never seen before.
It was just a single sword strike. One-third of the toadās precious tongue was cut off! That was a tongue that escaped all weapon attacks!
āHoly hell! It hurt so much that I nearly passed away!ā
The pain was not the biggest problem. Because its tongue was cut off, the poison in the tongue was mostly releasedā¦ When the toad was recovered from the unbearable pain and found the broken tongue, it hurriedly put it back and fixed its tongue. However, it was impossible to get the poison back anymore.
The poison had become the poisonous fog all over the mountain!
It truly upset the toad and almost drove it crazy.
It hadnāt ever thought that it would suddenly encounter such a painful accidentā¦
In fact, there was a way to change the situation. The poisonous fog was created by the toad itself by breathing in and out. It intentionally made such an environment by releasing a certain amount of poisonous fog. What it had lost to the wound on this toad eventually became a part of the poisonous fog on the Foggy Miasma Mountain, which meant it didnāt really lose the poison. All it needed to do was to absorb the poison back.
That was why the toad hadnāt move for a long time, concentrated on absorbing the poison in the poisonous fog to recover its power. At the same time, it needed time to fix its tongue. The poisonous fog was from the essence of the toadās energy. Because of Ye Xiaoās attack, the essence of the energy became the poisonous fog on the mountain. It took only a few seconds to become the poisonous fog, but took a long time to become the toadās energy again!
Anyway, the toad was broadminded. The Foggy Miasma Mountain had the Destined Poison Shield, so the poison was not going anywhere. It didnāt mind spending some time to get the poison backā¦ After hundreds of thousands of years, it was still the Destined Toadā¦
However, even it was optimistic, things always changed. When it was busy absorbing the poison back and recovering its power, something happened.
āWho are these people?ā
āWhy are they here together to attack me?ā
āWell, I donāt fear the attacks! Butā¦ Bastardsā¦ This is unforgivableā¦ Why did they create such a weird valley? How could they create such a strong wind storm? It blew my fog away and broke my Destined Poison Shieldā¦ā
āNow what? My poisonā¦ I have collected this for hundreds of thousands of yearsā¦ Now, most of it is goneā¦ It flew away upon the clouds! Is the god going to get it?ā
āThis is unforgivable. I canāt stand this! I wonāt let go of this!ā
The toad jumped out without hesitation. It reached out the tongue and scrolled over three hundred men away at a time. However, it seemed the tongue moved a little slower when it moved back to its mouth. There were some powerful cultivators among hundreds of peopleā¦
The toadās back was nearly one hectareā¦ Now it bore many woundsā¦
āF*ck! This is more to lose!ā
The toad was so angry, but it didnāt stop eating the men that were tied up by its tongue. It swallowed them all with one bite.
āIt canāt taste worse!ā
That was true. However, it was better than nothing!
āI have lost my power, and I am starvingā¦ Fine. I should eat more!ā
The toad had eaten some men and then its big eyes, which were as big as three houses, slowly closed down. The eyelids couldnāt help falling down.
āI must pretend I am asleep, so they will be careless, and I can wrap more men to eatā¦ā
āA few hundreds of men are far from enough to fill my stomachā¦ I need more!ā
The old man in the purple robe was totally shocked.
He kept his eyes open, staring at the giant toad that was hiding behind the fog. He was shaking.
He wasnāt shaking because of fear, but because of anger. He was so angry that he was shaking.
āI have traveled the world for so many years and I have never been taken advantage of like this!ā
āThe poisonous fog is cleaned, and the beast is right in front of us. That damn toad actually swallowed my men like that! Three hundred and fifty-seven men of mine are gone!ā
āIt chewed them and swallowed them!ā
āThis is unbelievableā¦ā
āIt is too arrogantā¦ too crazyā¦ too aggressiveā¦ It is sick!ā
The old man in purple robe felt that his head was going to explode.
He had never been in such a negative situation, not even when he had to face a million men in the enemyās army!
Now he was only fighting against an animal!
āF*cking animal! How vicious! How brutal! How arrogant!ā The old manās face turned dark.
āMy lord, the poisonous fog is clear. What should we do now? Are we going to besiege the monster and kill it?ā A few vice-generals surrounded the old man in the purple robe.
āDo you have to ask such a silly question?ā The old man fiercely said, āArenāt we here to hunt the evil toad? I donāt care what or how much it costs! We must capture the Destined Toad!ā
He thought for a while and then took a long breath. He said, āThe poisonous fog on the Foggy Miasma Mountain is broken. The Destined Toad is right before our eyes. The only thing the monster can do to attack is to wield its tongue! There is nothing else it can do nowā¦ Humph! It is easy to catch an animal with such limited attacking methods!ā
āMy lord, you are wise!ā
The vice-generals kept kissing the old manās ass, but in their hearts, they were cursing him.
āOnly to wield its tongue? Only?ā
āLimited attacking methods?ā
āThere is nothing else it can do?ā
āHow dare you? Really? Old man?ā
āThat thing just moved its tongue and we lost three hundred and fifty-seven menā¦ā
āHow many people do we have?ā
āEight thousand! That is all! My bloody lord!ā
āEight thousand men! That monster ate three hundred and fifty-seven men with one bite! Ten bites, it swallowed three thousand, five hundred and seventy men of us! With less than thirty bitesā¦ We will all become pieces in the toadās mouth!ā
āIt takes a man more than thirty bites to finish dinner!ā
āThe eight thousand of us are only as much as half a meal to the monsterā¦ā
āWe are alive now, and we can laugh and talkā¦ If the monster swallows us, we will become stools in half a dayā¦ā
The vice-generals all felt so sad as they thought of half a meal and the stools.
āOnly half a meal to itā¦ā One of them actually spoke it out.
The others heard it, and they quickly turned over to prepare for the fightā¦
(Off-screen voice of Erhuo: āPah! What are you thinking? I am smart and great! All beasts must bow to me! How do you have to call people erhuo when you actually want to call them idiots! Erhuo should be the highest-level compliment! Remember? Do not use it incorrectly!ā)
āHalf a meal?ā The old man in purple robe asked. His strong power wave was oppressing down.
The vice-general was so upset, and he didnāt dare to lie to the old man. āI meanā¦ The toadā¦ The Destined Toadā¦ Itā¦ This isā¦ A mealā¦ I meanā¦ No, I didnāt meanā¦ Pleaseā¦ā
The old man in purple robe half-closed his eyes and said, āDo you want to say that even if the toad eats all the eight thousand men, we are just half a meal to it? Is that what you want to say?ā
āNoā¦ Noā¦ I donāt want toā¦ It wasnātā¦ I didnāt meanā¦ā The vice-general was sweating.
āWhat do you want to say then? Go ahead. I am listening!ā
āWhat do you mean? Well, let me tell you what I mean. I mean you should get twenty black dragon whips! Somebody come! Give him the lesson he deserves!ā
The shout shook the entire army.
The vice-general was so upset.
āOh, f*ck. Do you really have to vent your anger on me? Really?ā
On the other side, Ye Xiao was urging the two sisters to cultivate harder, and he was supervising them.
āCome on! You look like two starving girls!
āHanāer! That was wrong! You must give more attention! Push it harder!
āShuangāer, you are in the wrong mood! You are distracted! Go again!ā
Ye Xiao was pointing at them like he knew everything. Yue Shuang and Yue Han only followed his instructions and cultivated really hardā¦ At least it looked like so.
In fact, it was just like so.
The two ladies werenāt using any powerful spiritual energy, but they were practicing their martial arts for realā¦
They were concentrated on cultivating their unique martial art!
The old man in purple robe looked over and then looked back.
He was a little confused though.
āThat was such a strong wind storm. Why are those ants still alive? Were they just lucky? Orā¦ā
As he looked at the bottom of the mountain, he found the cave. It explained many things.
āThey were hiding there. They are just lucky. Thatās all.ā
Ye Xiao was training Yue Shuang and Yue Han. He gave the ladies dan beads from time to timeā¦
The army did ruin his plan and stopped the Poison Kingās training, but they disclosed the Destined Toad. Ye Xiao and his people would have to face the toad if not for the army. After all, after the Poison King and the Silver-scaled Golden-caruncled Snakes finished improving in this area, they would have to deal with the monster on the mountain. Now that the North Sky Kingās Army was crazily attacking the toad, Ye Xiao felt lucky about it.
āWe are so luckyā¦ Those men are dying for usā¦ If they didnāt come, we will encounter the Destined Toad carelesslyā¦ According to the incredible power of the toad, we might have to run for life in the end!ā
āIn fact, maybe one of the ladies or the Poison King would have to stay behind! That would have killed me with extreme agony in the heart!ā
He had all the reasons to be pessimistic. Nobody would believe that a toad could reach the Undead Stageā¦ In fact, the Destined Toad was at the late phase of the Undead Stageā¦
It should be even much stronger if its tongue wasnāt hurt!
What level was the toad when it was at the prime status?
It was leaving no room for humans to be cultivators!
Ye Xiao was shouting inside his heart, but he was actually silent.
āHumph! These men are powerful, but they canāt kill the toad. Hmmā¦ They canāt kill the toad, but they will hurt the toad badly. When both sides were dead, I will show up and collect whatever is valuableā¦ā

āWell, if both sides were exhausted and nobody was unharmed, it would be betterā¦ā
āAfter all, these men were all high-level cultivatorsā¦ They must have a lot of valuable things with themā¦ā
āI should clear their pockets! That is what the One Meter Higher Sky would definitely doā¦ā
