Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Of course, according to the hearsay, no one in the Supernal Continent had obtained this pill inside the Poisonous Viper yet, so no one could confirm whether that rumor was true or not. The Poisonous Viper was elusive in nature—it was hidden in the farthest depths of the swamp, and it would not show itself to any individual easily. Even though the pill inside its body had such highly-coveted effects, no one was willing to risk their lives to take it out. After all, the viper was famed to be very powerful. Apart from it, its venom was so lethal that it could ruin a person's health. Even Holy Level warriors would lose their composure if they encountered it.

Since the Poisonous Corpse Pond was more difficult to find than the Illusory Poison Cave, Zachary spent three days scouring numerous floating mountains. After eight attempts, he eventually found the Poisonous Corpse Pond.

"But it's too dangerous! Besides, I am responsible for the lives trapped there since I was the one who led them to that dangerous situation. I wasn't careful and now, all of us are in peril. I can't let you risk your life too because of something I did," Fabian explained. He, too, was worried for Zachary's welfare.

"Then you should do better this time and choose the most rational option instead of throwing yourself out there again. Deep down, you know clearly that I'm more appropriate to help Sharon and the others," Zachary said firmly, injecting some sense into Fabian.

Hearing this, Fabian hesitated, because what Zachary said was right. He knew that compared to him, Zachary was more powerful and also had three Divine Level treasures and two Sage Level beasts. In terms of fighting ability, Zachary was obviously superior.

"Hurry up. Whether we can come back to the Dignified Supernal Sect alive or not is entirely up to you now!" After saying that, Zachary immediately disappeared from where he stood.

Fabian clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, and he headed straight for the entrance.
