"Yes, Princess."

Earth Medicine also lost confidence, showing a serious expression.

One must admit that this person still had some skill, saving those mice one after another.

However, once the poison entered the body, even with an antidote to save a life, the destructive effect on the body was unavoidable.

Each mouse's vitality was not strong, and in the face of such a potent poison, most were ruined after one poisoning and detoxification.

If the poisoning continued, they would mostly die, so the consumption was high, and before long, another cage was brought up.

Shen Wang watched seriously from the side, wondering if these venomous creatures were specially cultivated by someone, or if the local ones were indeed more poisonous, as all the poisons were very potent.

Visibly, Earth Medicine's expression grew increasingly grave, sweat dripping from his forehead.

Shen Wang quickly connected the practical situation with the Grand Poison Manual, instantly comprehending a lot.

Silver Moon had someone record the poison testing situation, clearly intending to understand the poisons of Jade Silkworm Valley through this menial task.

Seeing this, Shen Wang suddenly understood why the Demon Suppression Department dared to be so arrogant.

Just from researching venomous creatures, one could see that their system was more advanced, with a complete set of schemes.

The response speed and problem-solving ability of those sects and families were inferior, how could they compete?

An entire afternoon passed, and Earth Medicine researched over twenty types of poisons as required, basically finding the antidotes.

Shen Wang did not intervene from start to finish, Earth Medicine was exhausted and had no mood to care about him, and when Silver Moon announced to come back tomorrow, he left as if fleeing.

Shen Wang reviewed what he saw today against the Grand Poison Manual and gained quite a bit.

As he was about to slip away, Silver Moon coldly said, "After watching all afternoon, you know how to do it now, right?"

"I do, but with him here, I won't make a fool of myself."

Shen Wang intended to shirk work.

"Fine, you don't have to do anything."

Silver Moon nodded.

"You're so kind." Shen Wang was a bit surprised.

"The poison testing consumes a lot of mice; you'll be responsible for catching mice."

Silver Moon sneered, "If you don't want to catch them, you can be the mouse yourself, surely much tougher than those fragile mice."

"I'll catch them, it's not a difficult task."

Shen Wang had no more excuses to avoid and did not refuse further.

"Five hundred mice every day, I want them by tomorrow morning."

Silver Moon said this, then walked away.

Shen Wang said nothing more, left the Dragon Ship, and exited Jade Silkworm Valley to a lush forest, waved his hand, and a burly figure appeared before him.

This figure was Chen Xian, who had unfortunately been refined by the Black Death Blade King into a Human Puppet, completely controlled by the Black Death Gu.

This was known from examining the Black Death Gu in the Grand Poison Manual.

The Black Gu is a specially cultivated Gu, with a complex nurturing process, but the finished product is powerful; those initially poisoned fall into an Illusion Realm, and those deeply poisoned can be completely controlled, reduced to mindless puppets.

Chen Xian was just like this, Shen Wang took out a black token and injected Spiritual Essence, and a ghostly light shone from Chen Xian's eyes, as if he had come to life.

"Master."

Chen Xian knelt on one knee, saluting Shen Wang, or more accurately, the token.

Beyond this, he said nothing more and made no extra movements, standing woodenly, looking not very intelligent.

"From now on, you will cultivate during the day and catch mice for me at night, here is a Beast Taming Bag, temporarily it's five hundred mice a night."

Shen Wang ordered.

"Yes, Master."

The latter's gaze moved slightly, seemingly understanding Shen Wang's words, took the Beast Taming Bag and entered the forest to begin the hunt.

"Interesting, except for a lack of self-awareness, not too different from ordinary people; this is a high-level puppet."

Shen Wang marveled, watching for a while, noting that Chen Xian could do more than catch mice; he could also use Body Technique, Primordial Power, and much more, far superior to ordinary puppets.

Shen Wang felt assured, found a clean place to sit down, released the power of the Eight Trigrams Plate to isolate himself and avoid interference from external poisonous creatures.

He took out another Jade Scroll, which recorded information related to Puppetry, revealing that the Black Death Blade King controlled Chen Xian by combining Black Poison and Puppetry.

Shen Wang found the method of control, discovering it quite brutal.

To control a person to this extent, one must erase their subjective consciousness, turning them into a high-level puppet that merely obeys and acts.

Shen Wang increasingly felt that the Black Death Blade King was undoubtedly a Demonic Cultivator, and these things most likely originated from the Demon Suppression Department and Sun and Moon Dynasty, which presumably founded itself through the Demonic Dao.

"Only officials are allowed to set fires, not the commoners to light lamps, the Sun and Moon Dynasty forbids other sects and families from using the ways of Evil Demons and Outsiders, yet they are the most orthodox at it themselves."

Shen Wang muttered, finding it somewhat amusing, yet feeling it was realistic.

Whoever is strong, their words are deemed correct.

He continued to study, discovering that the creation of high-level puppets always requires various souls, ordinary puppets can be made through various Arrays, but high-level ones need a soul as the core.

The most powerful puppets can appear identical to ordinary people, but are in fact controlled.

Browsing to the end, the Jade Scroll even mentioned a Mind Control Technique, entirely a secret technique of the Demonic Dao, through planting a Demon Seed in someone's heart to gradually control them,

Such methods were eerie, and Shen Wang broke into a cold sweat reading them.

He approached the Black Death Blade King: "Is there no chance for Chen Xian to return to normal?"
