The traits of every poison in the world, the potency of its venom, and the methods used to tame and breed it are all grounded in rigorous science.
Every step is an adventure, every contest a battle of wits. No reliance on lucky breaks, just expert knowledge and the company of Sixteenth Master.
When science lifts the veil of mystery from the art of Gu, Chen Yuan uses knowledge as his foundation and venomous creatures as his weapon, rising to the top of the world’s Gu arts.
No supernatural elements, just pure science-based Gu cultivation!
Chen Yuan, a graduate student in toxicology, inherits his ancestors’ secret records of venomous creatures
and devotes himself to breeding the peerless predator Sixteenth Master.
He competes in venomous-creature tournaments in Bangkok and Cairo,
mingles in Hong Kong’s black markets, and explores ancient tombs in western Hunan, the Amazon wilderness, and the deadly Ailao Mountains.
The traits and toxicity of every creature are verified against real research.
No empty mysticism or cheap tricks: he commands ten thousand poisons through science and becomes a legendary scientist Gu King!
