Chapter 229 The Third Gate

Chapter 229 The Third Gate

Gabriel Edwards's face was frosty and he forcefully pushed Stella Turner away.

He positioned himself to block Red Spider and Blunt Knife.

At this moment, the cold poison was wreaking havoc in his body, almost freezing him stiff.

What was the most terrifying was that his heart was beating slower, and his blood flow was almost stagnant.

It seemed as if all the functions of his body were about to be frozen to a halt.

Such a terrifying poison! Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

At this moment, he finally understood the malicious intentions of Red Spider.

From the very beginning, this vicious woman had been setting a trap for him.

In reality, the Ice Beauty didn't take effect after half an hour, but in a much shorter time.

Red Spider deliberately altered this information to mislead him and make him let his guard down.

Afterwards, she proposed to poison Stella, calculating that his chivalry would compel him to take the poison in her place.

In this way, she successfully lured him into being poisoned by the Ice Beauty.

It must be said that this strategy was ingeniously designed.

It seemed highly risky and difficult to succeed, but in reality, it was meticulously planned and executed to perfection.

Even though he had been cautious beforehand, he was still caught off guard.

Such an outcome could only mean he had been careless!

"Go quickly! I'll hold them off. Thomas Taylor is in the off-road vehicle at the park entrance. Let him take you away!"

Gabriel shouted at Stella again, believing that he could hold on for a bit longer and block Red Spider and Blunt Knife for a few minutes.

He only hoped that in these few minutes, Stella could escape safely.

"But... I, I won't leave!"

Stella's mind went blank, her expression panicked and her actions flustered.

She knew she couldn't leave and abandon Gabriel here alone.

"Get lost! Stop being so melodramatic!"

With a forceful roar, Gabriel's eyes blazed with anger.

He despised those who were indecisive and overly sentimental. If she left, he could be free of worries, and there might still be a chance.

Her staying would only distract him and be of no use.

Only in TV dramas does sentimentality lead to a happy ending.

In reality, sentimentality only leads to painful consequences.

His shout pained Stella's heart.

But it seemed to also bring back some of her sanity.

So, she bit her lip hard and turned to run towards the Floating Bridge!

"Running? Neither of you will escape today. My husband has suffered so much, I'll use Stella's body to compensate him!"

Red Spider's eyes were fierce as she delivered a side kick.

She was also a Fighting Master of Physique Level and was very ferocious.

Gabriel's consciousness was starting to blur, and his body was even more rigid.

His world had slowed down considerably due to the freezing.

He tried to lift his arm to block, but it was slow and strenuous.

Before he could fully raise it, he was kicked in the neck by the Red Spider, and his body slammed hard against a pillar of the pavilion.

Gabriel, who had fallen to the ground, had passed out completely, losing consciousness.

Blunt Knife, covered in injuries, had a fierce and excited look in his only remaining eye.

Gabriel had been poisoned and passed out, now was the perfect opportunity for revenge!

He said to the Red Spider with gritted teeth, "Cut off his head! I want to bring it back and stew it for a meal. Only then can I relieve the hatred in my heart!"

His left shoulder, left hand, right arm, and right eye - with so many injuries, only by consuming Gabriel alive could he quench his thirst for revenge!

"As you wish!" Red Spider replied with a light smile, squatting in front of Gabriel.

She clicked her tongue and shook her head repeatedly, "You are indeed strong, but you were easily deceived by me. Look at you, your face covered in frost, truly turned into an ice beauty. I'll cut off your head now and take it back for my husband to eat with his wine!"

She raised her small knife, about to stab it into Gabriel's neck.

Suddenly, a loud shout came from the entrance of the Floating Bridge, "You... You are not allowed to move, don't hurt Gabriel Edwards!"

Stella had actually returned, somehow finding a wooden stick along the way.

With trembling hands, she held the stick and shouted nervously at Red Spider and Blunt Knife.

Although she knew returning might be futile, she couldn't stand by and let Gabriel get hurt.

Red Spider stopped her knife and stood up.

She laughed heartily at Stella and said, "You really are a hopelessly romantic woman. Your man is about to die. If you're willing to serve my husband, I might just spare your life!"

Stella was momentarily taken aback.

Has this woman gone mad, offering another woman to her own husband?

Gripping her wooden stick tightly and glancing at Gabriel on the ground, she gritted her teeth and charged, exclaiming, "I'll take you all on!"

Rushing towards Red Spider, she raised the stick, ready to strike.

"Smack!"

But before she could swing it, Red Spider slapped her across her face.

The force was so strong that Stella staggered and eventually fell to the ground.

She lay on the ground in a disheveled state, her face stinging from the slap.

"You think you can lay a hand on me?" Red Spider sneered coldly, taking out a bottle of potion and uncapping it as she squatted down.

She gripped Stella's chin with her left hand, ready to pour the potion into Stella's mouth. "This is my secret poison. It can make a woman lose her mind and become incredibly promiscuous. Even beggars on the street would be sought after by her. I'm going to turn you into a wretch!"

Stella desperately turned her head, keeping her mouth tightly shut.

But in the end, she couldn't resist Red Spider's strength, and her mouth was forcibly pried open.

Red Spider gave a sinister smile and was about to pour the potion down.

But suddenly, a fist came flying, sending Red Spider flying with a "boom".

The potion spilled, with only one drop landing on Stella's lips.

Red Spider was knocked sideways to the ground, her left eyeball dislodged from its socket due to the impact.

"D*mn it!"

She covered her left eye, enduring the pain as she tried to push her eyeball back into its socket.

Turning her head, she exclaimed in surprise, "How is this possible? You were poisoned by my Ice Beauty, how can you be alright?"

The one who had struck her was none other than Gabriel Edwards.

At that moment, Gabriel's entire body's meridians were bulging, all turning black, winding and twisting all over his body.

His eyes were blood-red, emanating a terrifying aura.

With the black meridians, Gabriel looked terrifyingly monstrous, like a death god from hell.

"Ice Beauty?" Gabriel said coldly, "Today, I must sincerely thank you. If not for you, I wouldn't have awakened this terrifying power hidden within my body."

After being poisoned, his consciousness had once again arrived at the gates of the eight memory seals.

The first gate, representing a fortune of ten billion, was open, as was the second gate related to medical skills.

And at that moment, the third gate opened!

On this gate was a depiction of the human body's channels and blood vessels as well as a peculiar insect.

As he entered the opened third gate, before he could see clearly, an insect swiftly burrowed into his body.

From that moment, a mysterious power hidden within his body awakened.

It was the supreme and most powerful Gu Worm from the Miya Gu techniques, the Chaotic Celestial Embryo Gu!

Those who possessed this Gu, if they also mastered a Miya occult art called Chaotic Frenzy Meridian, could reverse their blood flow and enhance their physical limits to the extreme.

With black veins bulging all over his body, Gabriel's physical limits had been elevated significantly!

Now, his physical limits had reached a terrifying level!

The Chaotic Celestial Embryo Gu, being the progenitor of all poisons, could devour any toxin within the body, rendering its possessor immune to all poisons.

This was the third gate among the memory-sealed doors, the Meridian Gate...
