"Five Poisons Hall, is it powerful?"
After listening in, Carson Flores quietly asked Edward Miller. Though he was new to the area and had read some material about the Heavenly Profound Continent, he figured someone who lived here would be more knowledgeable.
Edward replied, "Overall strength isn't impressive, but they have a big reputation. First, because of their mastery with poison, and second, because the founder of the Five Poisons Hall, Five Poisons Elder, is a notorious old monster, a Peak Heavenly Immortal, whose skill with poison is unparalleled. Even Peak Heavenly Immortals and Immortal Monarchs usually avoid provoking him."
Carson understood instantly.
When combat power is lacking, poison fills the gap. Even if you're stronger, you have to constantly be wary of their poison. If your strengths are close, the fight could be even more disadvantageous.
This is probably why no one wants to mess with the Five Poisons Hall.
