CBGC - ch144.2

2/4

Having traversed many realms in the past ten thousand years, he has heard about Lei Ming in the Xuyu Realm. At that time, Lei Ming had already left Xuyu tens of thousands of years ago, but mentioning this name still evoked fear in those cultivators. He was the number one figure in the demonic path, unifying all the demonic sects in the Xuyu Realm at his time, causing extreme devastation to the righteous cultivators in that realm. Even though he had long disappeared, the Demonic Path still maintained absolute dominance. Strangely, in such an environment, those righteous cultivators who stuck to their principles were able to unite and support each other, which was admirable.

Lei Ming is a demonic cultivator who ascended to the True Demonic Realm tens of thousands of years ago. After intense battles and plundering in the realm, his strength has become unfathomable. Even separated by the riverbank, one can still sense his fierce and ominous aura.

In this world, peace won't last for long.

Bai Su remains calm, but the other three members of the Bai family are anxious, and they dare not stare at those white calves. They hurriedly take out detoxification pills for Su Tingyun to try. Unfortunately, none of the attempts show any effect, making everyone even more worried, "Quick, send her back for Sixth Elder to take a look."

"I've contacted the Clan Leader, and he'll come with the Sixth Elder to meet with us. With this arrangement, half a day should be enough."

The fastest they can return from the Tianhe River to the Bai family is a day. So, notifying the Sixth Elder and having them rush over will give them some time. 

The Sixth Elder is the top alchemy master in the True Immortal Realm. If she can't cure Su Tingyun, it would be impossible for even a god to do so.

Su Tingyun wants to explain, but she doesn't know how to articulate it. Bai Su gives her a direct look, signaling her not to speak. He then helps her onto the flying treasure.

The group flies towards a valley where members of the Bai family could go in seclusion, and Su Tingyun sits on Bai Su's flying artifact, both her feet numb. The black line continues to crawl upward, reaching the inner side of her thighs.

Previously, there was pain, but now there is no reaction at all, as if both legs have been severed. Big Bai and Little Bai are currently playing happily inside her ring, showing no concern for her. Bai Su, who knows her secret, doesn't say much either. Occasionally, he would remark, "If it hurts, just go out."

His suggestion implies that if it hurts, she can leave her physical body. Now that the ring’s world has taken shape, she doesn't need to stay confined in the Soul Bell. Being in the ring is even better, with no worries about her primordial spirit dissipating. Instead, she'd receive more nourishment from being there.

This secret is truly extraordinary. She cannot reveal it to anyone, even if these people are his family; she cannot fully trust them.

Back then, some people defected from the Bai family. Who knows if there are still some who stayed behind and became double agents. Even if these individuals are trusted by the Ninth Elder and deemed absolutely reliable, Bai Su still can't rest easy.

"Yeah," Su Tingyun responds. She's truly unlucky; just fetching water, she encountered a demonic cultivator on the opposite bank.

A while later, Su Tingyun realizes that she can't move her hands. As a gentle breeze blows, strands of hair fall on her face, and she tries to lift her hand to brush them away but fails.

Struggling to raise her hand a few times, she can't even reach her face. 

Just as Su Tingyun is about to use her primordial spirit to attempt it, a hand reaches over and effortlessly tucks those strands behind her ear.

"It really doesn't hurt?"

"Not at all."

"En."

This scorpion poison seals off spiritual energy. For cultivators, if spiritual energy cannot circulate, it's as good as a death sentence. Naturally, they will try to desperately operate their spiritual energy to expel the toxins, or they'll become anxious and fearful. In this way, it will instead cause the toxins to spread faster. By the time it erupts in the Dantian and sea of consciousness, not only will the body decay, but the primordial spirit will also be completely destroyed. However, before that, they simply can't move.

A while later, the Sixth Elder of the Bai family joins them.

The Sixth Elder is at the Ninth Heaven Profound Immortal realm, a cultivation level higher than Bai Su's. She appears to be in her early thirties, with a not very glamorous appearance. Her eyebrows are arched, and her round face looks very gentle, with kind brows and benevolent eyes. There is a faint glow about her, and at first glance, she looks like a Goddess of Mercy. The Bai family quickly sets up a formation barrier, directly covering the area within a radius of a hundred lis.

Upon her arrival, she looks at Su Tingyun and says, "Fortunately, you didn't recklessly exert yourself. This poison can be cured, but it will be very painful. Endure it for now."

After the Sixth Elder finishes speaking, she takes out a bone-scraping knife and then asks, "Are you ready?"

Su Tingyun is a bit stunned for a moment, then nods. The next moment, the bone-scraping knife is inserted under her armpit. It hurts so much she feels like she's about to die, her face instantly turns as pale as paper.

She almost detaches her soul, but thinking of Bai Su's warning not to expose her godly treasure, she grits her teeth to endure. Big Bai is currently causing a ruckus in her consciousness, and she has to explain to while enduring the pain, until she eventually convinces Big Bai. Xi Guang's primordial spirit still exists, so she can't let the woman's body fester. Therefore, she has to endure, at least to get rid of the poison.
