Chapter 851: Chapter 851: Purging the Fire Poison
"It seems they won’t be returning for a while."
Chen Nan breathed a sigh of relief; he didn’t want to be targeted by another Nascent Soul monster.
With no more worries, Chen Nan headed straight to dicine Immortal Valley.
Qing Yao had been waiting for a month, and upon seeing Chen Nan arrive, nearly burst into tears of joy.
"Chen Nan, you’ve finally co!"
"My father has fallen into a coma again, and even the Spirit Cold Pill has no effect."
Chen Nan was taken aback, not expecting the fire poison to flare up so quickly; Qing Xuan hadn’t even lasted a month.
Without hesitation, he went straight to Qing Xuan’s room.
The old servant was standing outside the door, and upon seeing Chen Nan arrive, his eyes lit up with hope.
"Chen Nan, is it true what the young lady said, that you can eliminate the fire poison from the master’s body?"
Chen Nan nodded and said, "Yes, it’s true. That’s why I’ve co."
"However, during the process of removing the fire poison, no one except Qing Yao should be near to assist ."
The old servant was almost moved to tears, agreeing to any terms at this mont.
"Alright, I’ll activate the array right now and ensure no one disturbs you!"
Soon, a layer of array barrier rose outside Qing Xuan’s small courtyard, allowing Chen Nan to enter the room at ease.
The information about the Heaven-Burning Fla must not leak out; otherwise, both Qingshan Sect and dicine Immortal Valley would face disaster.
Approaching the bed, Chen Nan saw Qing Xuan, who looked even worse than before, tortured by the fire poison until he was unrecognizable.
"Chen Nan, you must save my father."
Qing Yao, seeing the scene, couldn’t help but shed tears.
"Don’t worry, I will definitely save your father!"
After comforting Qing Yao for a while, Chen Nan helped Qing Xuan up, gently placing his palm on Qing Xuan’s back.
The emaciated bones could be felt with a light touch, and without any checking, it was clear that Qing Xuan was close to his end.
Without further delay, a strand of Heaven-Burning Fla flowed through his palm, slowly entering Qing Xuan’s body and into the ridians.
Using Heaven-Burning Fla to eliminate the fire poison requires absolute control over the fla; any mishap could cause irreversible damage to Qing Xuan.
Fortunately, Chen Nan had been using Heaven-Burning Fla for Alchemy all this ti, and his control over spiritual fire had advanced.
Especially with the absolute control an Alchemist has over the spiritual fire, accidents were unlikely as long as he was careful.
The spiritual fire moved slowly along the ridians and soon encountered the fire poison entrenched within; upon eting the spiritual fire, the fire poison seed to retreat like a living creature.
How could Chen Nan let the fire poison escape? With a thought, the Heaven-Burning Fla transford into a peerless beast and pounced, not giving the fire poison even a breath before turning it into black smoke.
Standing by, Qing Yao, observing nervously, also saw the black smoke emanating from Qing Xuan’s body, filled with unexpected joy.
"It really works!"
Seeing Chen Nan closed-eyed and looking serious, Qing Yao felt incredibly lucky to be Chen Nan’s woman.
The work of eliminating the fire poison continued but was too slow for Chen Nan.
The fire poison in Qing Xuan’s body had already penetrated to the marrow, and just clearing the poison from the ridians took an imnse amount of ti.
If it continued, Qing Xuan might not endure.
Chen Nan made a bold decision, multitasking by deploying a second spiritual fire, effectively accelerating the process.
This required even more concentration from Chen Nan.
Once proficient in using two spiritual fires, Chen Nan found he still had extra energy and employed a third spiritual fire, multitasking yet again.
After adjusting, he split out another spiritual fire.
In the end, Chen Nan managed to multitask with nine spiritual fires simultaneously, dramatically speeding up the process.
Thankfully, his Divine Soul Power was robust enough to control nine spiritual fires, though it was already his limit.
Qing Yao saw one strand after another of black smoke arise from Qing Xuan and felt even more delighted, yet upon seeing Chen Nan’s furrowed brow, she realized removing the fire poison wasn’t simple.
She took out a handkerchief and helped Chen Nan wipe the sweat from his forehead.
Thus, after persisting for three days, Qing Xuan’s ridians were finally cleared of the remaining fire poison, and Chen Nan reached his limit, ceasing his efforts.
As soon as he stood up, he felt the world spin, nearly collapsing, but Qing Yao was quick to catch him.
"Chen Nan, how are you?" Qing Yao asked with concern, helping him to sit on a chair and pouring him a cup of tea.
Chen Nan waved his hand, forcing a smile and said, "It’s nothing, just exhausted Divine Soul Power consumption lately, a bit dizzy."
"Now, the fire poison in your father’s ridians is completely cleared; only the marrow retains so. I believe your father will soon wake up."
"Once I’ve rested, I’ll clear the remaining fire poison, and your father will be fine."
"That’s wonderful!" Qing Yao wept with joy, embracing Chen Nan tightly, "Thank you, Chen Nan, without you, I wouldn’t have my father."
"There’s no need to be so formal," Chen Nan, sowhat fatigued, smiled, "since you are my dao companion."
In this regard, Chen Nan wasn’t bashful, as in the Cultivation World, a cultivator having multiple dao companions is commonplace.
Even a female cultivator can have multiple dao companions.
Of course, there are also many cultivators who are treated as cauldrons for harvesting Primordial Yin or Yang and discarded afterwards.
Qing Yao knew that soone like Chen Nan was destined to soar to great heights and would be pursued by countless female cultivators.
In this place, Qing Yao had so reputation and a title of fairy but fell short compared to true daughters of heaven or sect holy daughters.
So she didn’t hope for Chen Nan to be committed entirely to her, as long as he cared for her it was enough.
"Alright, then I won’t be polite," Qing Yao kissed Chen Nan lightly, smiling as she said, "I’ll take you to rest and prepare Spirit dicine Soup for you later."
"Alright."
Indeed, Chen Nan was very tired, not physically but ntally exhausted, and upon being brought to his previous room by Qing Yao, he fell asleep imdiately.
After settling Chen Nan, Qing Yao returned to Qing Xuan’s room to joyfully find her father had awakened.
"Father!"
Qing Yao wept with joy, hugging her father tightly.
Qing Xuan felt an incredible relief in his body, with strength restored to seventy or eighty percent, knowing that most of the fire poison was cleared, realizing Chen Nan had co.
After the last Immortal Ascension conference, Qing Yao had told him about Heaven-Burning Fla, and he had been waiting ever since.
