Villain: Manipulating the Heroines into hating the Protagonist

Chapter 371 Gathering Resources and Developing Deadly Poison

The small twig Wang Jian had brought back from the Elven Kingdom contained a minuscule trace of the World Tree's energy. It was a feeble link to the immense power that resided within the World Tree, but it was all they had to work with.

The Dwarven Race, the Devil Race, and the Miracle Angel Tribe joined forces to develop a poison capable of restraining or corrupting the World Tree and its energy. It was an arduous task, for the World Tree's energy was unlike anything they had encountered before. It seemed to be impervious to both the devil attribute and the angelic attribute, presenting a unique challenge.

Wang Jian had anticipated this difficulty, and it was the brilliance of the Dwarven Race's four geniuses that ultimately provided a breakthrough. They devised a method to create a poison that could affect the World Tree, using an amalgamation of various resources.

One of the four dwarves approached Wang Jian and informed him of the demanding requirements. To create a corrosive poison of such potency, they needed resources at the Ninth Tier Level. These materials were rare and challenging to obtain.

Wang Jian fell into a thoughtful trance, considering the immense challenge of gathering the necessary resources. However, his determination was unwavering, and he assured the dwarves that he would acquire the materials they needed. He wanted them to continue their research while he took care of this critical task.

With resolve in his heart, Wang Jian knew it was time to embark on a quest to gather these Ninth Tier resources. He decided to explore the entire Northern Region with the help of Bixi Shuyan.

Leveraging the power of the system, Wang Jian had the unique ability to fuse two rare high-tier resources to create a resource of even higher tier. This was a key advantage that would aid him in acquiring the rare materials necessary for the creation of the potent poison.

Amidst the sprawling expanse of the Northern Region, Wang Jian and his concubine, Bixi Shuyan, embarked on their quest to gather the rare and potent Ninth Tier resources.

Their journey took them through pristine forests, and it wasn't long before Shuyan sensed the presence of a legendary herb, the elusive Silverpetal Blossom. She led Wang Jian to the heart of a secluded glade where the exquisite herb bloomed. Its petals shimmered like silver in the dappled sunlight, and it was said to possess extraordinary properties. Wang Jian carefully harvested the herb, well aware of its potential uses in their mission.

Continuing their exploration, they soon discovered a rich deposit of Mithral Ore deep within a hidden mountain cavern. This rare and precious material was known for its exceptional strength and adaptability. As they collected samples of the ore, Wang Jian's mind raced with possibilities of how to utilize it in the creation of their special poison.

A particularly fascinating find was an ancient beast's burial ground. The remains of a colossal Flameclaw Wyrm, its bones radiating a residual electric charge, lay in a massive pit. Shuyan explained, "These bones contain potent elemental energy. If used correctly, they could bolster the power of our poison." With great effort, they extracted the massive skull, knowing it would be a vital component.

While journeying through dense forests, Wang Jian stumbled upon an overgrown and forgotten tomb. Its inscription revealed it to be the final resting place of an ancient king. Within the tomb, they found a burial chamber filled with precious artifacts. Wang Jian was drawn to a peculiar relic: a crystal vial filled with an iridescent liquid. This was a rare elixir known as the Tears of Earth and it had incredible regenerative properties.

Wang Jian felt that combining the Tears of Earth with the poison was going to yield a great result.

Their relentless quest yielded more Eighth Tier resources, including pure Essence Crystals and Dragonheart Stones. Each discovery further fueled their ambition to create a poison capable of tainting the World Tree.

As they continued their journey, their encounters led them to resources of undeniable value, carefully catalogued and prepared for use.

Wang Jian and Bixi Shuyan returned to their palace, eager to put their hard-earned resources to good use. The first step was to harness the unique capabilities of Wang Jian's system, which allowed him to fuse materials together with unparalleled precision.

With the remains of the colossal Flameclaw Wyrm at their disposal, Wang Jian embarked on a meticulous process. He ground the wyrm's bones into a fine dust, and with Shuyan's guidance, they infused the Tears of the Earth into the powdered bone fragments.

The result was nothing short of remarkable. What emerged from this fusion was a Ninth Tier Elixir known as the Tears of Inferno Elixir. This potent elixir possessed the ability to enhance and amplify the flames and infernal energy within a being, gradually consuming them from the inside. The Flames of Inferno had been born.

The Tears of Inferno was a powerful substance that would serve as the cornerstone of their ambitious poison. Its unique property, the internal generation and amplification of flame energy, made it an ideal catalyst. To make it even more deadly, Wang Jian infused the elixir with the raw power of his Solar Flames, further augmenting its destructive capabilities.

The next phase of their project was the fusion of the remaining Eighth Tier resources they had collected during their journey. Wang Jian's expertise and Shuyan's guidance played a crucial role as they meticulously combined the rare Essence Crystals, Mithral Ore, and a host of other materials, crafting a variety of powerful and sinister concoctions.

They created an alloy capable of withstanding immense elemental pressure, a subversive toxin that could corrode even the most resilient of materials, and enchanted gems that could siphon energy from the surroundings. Their efforts culminated in the production of several Ninth Tier Resources.

Wang Jian surveyed their stockpile of materials with satisfaction, knowing that they now had more than enough resources to fulfill their objective. Their poison was taking shape, each component designed to corrupt and weaken the World Tree's energy and defenses.

The development of the poison aimed at corrupting the World Tree's energy was a collaborative effort that drew upon the unique strengths of the Dwarven Race, the Miracle Angel Tribe, and the Devil Clans.

The Dwarven Race contributed their exceptional knowledge of energies. With their ingenious minds, they devised the foundational concepts for the poison's composition, ensuring its effectiveness against the World Tree's powerful defenses.

The Miracle Angel Tribe, renowned for their understanding of rare herbs and concoctions, played a vital role in refining the Tears of Inferno Elixir. They combined their expertise with the elixir and the herbs, crafting a mixture that would allow the World Tree's energy to accept the Tears of Inferno as part of its own power, rather than as a foreign threat. It was an intricate and challenging task, but the tribe's members were determined to see it through.

The Devil Clans, each with their unique abilities and curses, added their own sinister touches to the concoction. The Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan's experts contributed a malevolent curse that would not only afflict the victims but also siphon their vitality, channeling it into a treasured artifact of their clan – the Ancestral Devil Scythe, which belonged to one of their greatest and strongest ancestors.

The Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Clan harnessed their moon-based powers to create illusions and numb the World Tree's senses. These illusions were designed to impede the World Tree's ability to perceive and counteract the poison, buying them precious time.

The prototype of the poison had shown promise on the twig Wang Jian had brought from the Elven Kingdom. However, Wang Jian was fully aware that the success of the plan hinged on how the World Tree would react when exposed to the poison. The entire enchanted forest and the World Tree's energies were the real challenge they faced.

With the poison nearing completion, Wang Jian ordered his subordinates to commence mass production. Their plan was to disperse the poison throughout the entire enchanted forest of the Elves.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

Wang Jian was preparing to disperse the poison throughout the enchanted forest of the Elves, he received unexpected news that sent shockwaves through his plans.

Reports indicated that the combined forces of the Verzen Empire and the Everlasting Mystical Empire had successfully pushed back the Dwarven Race's Dominion. It seemed that the advanced Devil Artifacts and Devil Talismans had given them the upper hand.

Simultaneously, the Beast Race, previously in conflict with the Elven Race, had decided to withdraw from the battlefield due to the heavy losses they'd suffered. This surprising turn of events left Wang Jian contemplating his next moves.

He was on the brink of conquering the Dwarven Race's Dominion, capitalizing on their weakened state. However, just as he was about to set his plan into motion, a shocking development occurred.

The forces of the Verzen Empire and the Everlasting Mystical Empire, riding high on their recent victory, had plans to disrupt the connection between the Earth Veins and the Dwarven Powered Immortal Dominion. It was a strategic move that could cripple the Dwarven Dominion.

Before they could execute this operation, they found themselves under attack. The assailants were from the Elemental Nexus Immortal Dominion, specifically the contingent of Small Sects within that realm.

Wang Jian was taken aback by this unexpected twist. It appeared that the Elemental Nexus Immortal Dominion had entered the fray on behalf of the Dwarven Race!
