Chapter 34 The Method of Detoxification
Dugu Bo blushed, awkwardly tugged at the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile that looked more like a grimace: "I'm used to it, I'm used to it... Please forgive me, young master."
He finally understood that the young man in front of him, though young, was insightful and had unfathomable strength and background, and was not fooled by his usual bluffing tactics.
Faced with absolute strength and the hope of possibly resolving his greatest predicament, his old-fashioned probing and reserve were best left alone.
Lin Qiyue stopped teasing him and nodded to Xiao Lan: "Xiao Lan, let's put him down first. It's not proper to keep him tied up like this."
"Yes, Master."
Xiao Lan responded with a soft wave of her hand.
slam-la-
The tough, steel-like blue silver grass receded like a tide, loosening its restraints on Dugu Bo.
The surrounding imposing blue-silver spears softened and drooped, transforming back into ordinary blue-silver grass blades and blending into the grass.
Dugu Bo felt a sense of relief, and his previously imprisoned soul power began to flow smoothly again.
He moved his stiff and numb hands and feet, secretly relieved, but also shocked by the blue-clad girl's control.
With effortless control and masterful manipulation, his mastery of plants and power is simply astounding.
He straightened his slightly disheveled robes before stepping forward and solemnly bowing to Lin Qiyue, his attitude completely different from before.
"Thank you, young master. May I ask your name? I apologize for my previous rudeness."
Lin Qiyue accepted his bow without hesitation and said calmly, "Lin Qiyue. This is my maid, Xiao Lan."
"So it's Young Master Lin and Miss Lan."
Dugu Bo quickly replied, adopting a very humble posture.
He is now basically certain that this young master Lin is no ordinary person, and that he may have unimaginable power or lineage behind him.
The ability to see through the deadly poison in his body at a glance and be confident that he could cure it is something that no ordinary soul master could do.
Moreover, he was protected by a powerful expert at the level of a Super Douluo.
Still calling me master...
That's not simple at all.
"Young Master Lin, what you just said could cure the backlash from the Azure Phosphorous Snake venom..."
Dugu Bo couldn't wait to steer the conversation back to what he cared about most.
"I wonder... what does the young master need from me? Or what kind of medicine or conditions are required? As long as it is within my power, I will not refuse!"
Lin Qiyue looked at Dugu Bo's urgent yet humble and hopeful eyes and nodded inwardly.
Although this old poisoner has a reclusive and eccentric personality, his love for his granddaughter is genuine, which can be considered both his weakness and his strength.
"Treatment is not something that can be rushed."
Lin Qiyue waved her hand, her gaze sweeping over the magnificent valley.
"The most urgent matter is to deal with this Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire. As I said, I want it. In exchange, I will cure you and Dugu Yan of your poison. Do you accept this deal?"
"I accept it! I completely accept it!"
Dugu Bo nodded without hesitation.
For him, this was not a transaction at all, but an immense blessing!
This pharmacy is good, but compared to my and my granddaughter's lives, it's nothing.
"very good."
Lin Qiyue nodded in satisfaction.
"Then, from this moment on, this Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, including the surrounding valley, belongs to me. You may continue to use this place as your herb garden, and you may come and go freely, but nothing here, including all the immortal herbs, may be touched without my permission. At the same time, you must keep this place a secret from everyone, and you must not reveal any information about me and Xiao Lan, or about this place, to anyone. Can you do that?"
"Yes! Absolutely!"
Dugu Bo patted his chest and guaranteed.
"I swear by my martial spirit that I will keep this a secret and obey Young Master Lin's every command!"
"As for detoxifying you and Dugu Yan..."
Lin Qiyue pondered for a moment.
In fact, the best way to cure Dugu Bo's body of the deadly poison is with a soul core.
In the original work, Tang San's method of storing poison in his soul bone was not bad, but it only treated the symptoms, not the root cause.
The amount of toxins that a soul bone can store is limited.
It will eventually be full.
It will only get more painful afterward.
He doesn't know the method of creating a soul core, but he has immortal herbs that can be produced indefinitely.
As long as we obtain the method of using the miraculous herb, how could we not be able to resolve this bit of toxin?
It doesn't exist. As for now...
Let's just make do with the method of storing poison in the soul bone for now.
……
After listening to Lin Qiyue's method of storing poison with soul bones.
Dugu Bo was stunned at first, then his eyes flashed with disbelief!
"This...it's actually that simple?!"
He muttered to himself, then slapped his thigh, his voice trembling with excitement.
"It's feasible! Absolutely feasible! How come I never thought of that before?! It's true what they say, those involved are often blinded by their own perspective!"
The seemingly unsolvable problem of highly toxic substances that had plagued him for half his life was surprisingly solved with a clear and straightforward approach.
The Azure Phosphorus Serpent Venom, which originally permeated the body and martial soul, was forcibly forced out and channeled into the soul bone for storage!
Soul bones are the condensed energy essence left behind after a soul beast dies.
It is theoretically entirely feasible!
Moreover, the soul bone is closely connected to the body, and can use the toxins within it to attack at any time, which may even take his poison skills to the next level!
The overwhelming surprise instantly clouded Dugu Bo's mind.
However, Lin Qiyue's next words were like a bucket of cold water, quickly calming his feverish mind.
"While this method is feasible, it has one drawback."
"There is a limit to the amount of toxins that a soul bone can store. This is especially true for ordinary soul bones, whose capacity is relatively fixed. However, the toxins of your Azure Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul will continuously accumulate and intensify as your cultivation level increases and the frequency of use increases. Once the toxins stored in the soul bone reach their limit and overflow, or the soul bone becomes overburdened, the backlash will be more intense and difficult to control than before."
The joy on Dugu Bo's face instantly froze, and his brows furrowed tightly.
Yes, the soul bone isn't a bottomless pit... He was so blinded by hope that he completely overlooked this point.
Lin Qiyue glanced at him and continued, "Therefore, the best method is to find an external soul bone. External soul bones have growth potential and can evolve as the host's strength increases. Their storage capacity will also expand accordingly, which is more suitable for your situation where toxins will continue to accumulate. Moreover, an external soul bone full of toxins will inevitably be more terrifying."
"The only problem is... that external soul bones are too rare."
"External soul bone..."
Dugu Bo pondered these four words, a hint of longing flashing in his eyes, but mostly a sense of helplessness.
The rarity of external soul bones is almost the same as that of 100,000-year soul bones!
That was a priceless treasure, something that could only be encountered by chance and never seen in person. He had lived for so many years and had only ever heard of it, never seen it with his own eyes.
But soon, Dugu Bo's eyes hardened again.
He clasped his hands deeply in thanks to Lin Qiyue: "Thank you so much for your guidance, Young Master Lin! At least... at least there's hope now, isn't there?"
