Chapter 492: Chapter 484: Neutralizing the Fire Poison_1

Human fear arises from many aspects, such as the fear of the unknown, like this sort of fear where one can only watch helplessly as a close attendant’s internal organs are cooked alive and die.

“May I feel the fire poison within your body?”

Out of gratitude to Gongsun Jin, Qin Niu was willing to offer help now that the other party was in trouble, should he be able to provide any assistance.

Moreover, having ford a deadly enmity with the Nine Insect Gang, they would surely not let him off the hook.

The day for battle would inevitably co, perhaps even looming on the horizon.

Given the formidable attacking tactics of the reinforcents brought by the Nine Insect Gang, he definitely needed to learn more. This way, when he eventually confronted those people, he could do so with full awareness.

“This fire poison is extrely domineering; your cultivation is still shallow, so you must be careful! Probe only briefly, and imdiately retract your energy, do not let it invade your body,” Gongsun Jin instructed.

Qin Niu had revealed an unparalleled talent in controlling insects, even breaking through the carefully laid Insect Formation of the Nine Insect Gang, making him a star of hope in the eyes of the Black Tiger Gang’s upper echelons.

Having witnessed the prowess of the Insect Master, they hoped even more that their own faction could have such a formidable Insect Master in residence.

It could be said that with Qin Niu present, the Black Tiger Gang need not fear the Insect Masters of the Nine Insect Gang.

Nearly every far-sighted mber of the Black Tiger Gang’s upper level would protect Qin Niu like Gongsun Jin, to prevent any accidents from happening to him.

After receiving permission from Gongsun Jin, Qin Niu extended a finger to touch the palm of Gongsun Jin’s right hand.

Upon contact, he felt an intense heat.

Like a red-hot branding iron.

“This fire poison is truly terrifying!”

Qin Niu withdrew his hand as if he’d been shocked by electricity. This reaction was within Gongsun Jin’s expectations.

“Let take another look!”

He extended a finger again to touch Gongsun Jin’s palm. This ti, prepared, he activated his energy to protect the finger from being scorched.

Who would have guessed that just one second upon contact, before he could further investigate, he felt a fiery breath rushing into his body through his fingertip.

Frightened, he quickly withdrew his hand.

But it was still slightly too late.

The fiery breath couldn’t be shaken off and rapidly spread from his fingertip to his palm.

It was an indescribable sensation, like boiling water flowing upwards or as if his hand caught fire, burning up along the finger.

“Has the fire poison invaded your body through your fingertip? Sit down quickly and use your energy to suppress it,” Gongsun Jin’s complexion changed subtly.

He guessed what was happening from Qin Niu’s reaction and urgently advised him on how to counter it.

Qin Niu sat down and closed his eyes, mobilizing the power of the Everlasting Spring Technique within his body to suppress the fire poison that had invaded him.

Unexpectedly, not only did this not help, but as soon as he mobilized the Everlasting Spring Technique, it was like pouring oil on the fire.

The fire poison beca even more violent.

He had an ominous feeling.

Curiosity killed the cat. He truly hadn’t expected the fire poison to be this terrible.

“Is the cultivation technique you’re practicing wood-elent?”

Seeing Qin Niu’s entire palm turning red and spreading rapidly towards his arm, Gongsun Jin began to panic, his voice urgent as he pressed for an answer.

“I’m practicing the Life-Nurturing Technique; I don’t know if it’s wood-elent!”

Upon hearing this, Qin Niu quickly switched to using the power of the dicine King Sutra to suppress the fire poison.

This ti it had so effect.

The spread of the fire poison significantly slowed.

It seed that indeed the wood-elent technique had exacerbated the onslaught of the fire poison.

“Ah, it’s all my fault for being careless; I’ve done harm to Brother Qin!”

Gongsun Jin repeatedly stamped his feet in distress.

“Others have also tested the fire poison in my right arm like you did, but no accidents occurred. I didn’t know that the technique you were practicing was of the wood elent, and now I’ve put you in danger. This fire poison is overwhelmingly domineering; if you can’t suppress it with your power and you don’t have a thod to eliminate the fire poison, I fear you may have to amputate your arm to save your life.”

It was like being bitten by a venomous snake on one’s foot.

If at the mont of the bite one imdiately had the heart to sever the foot, it would prevent the snake venom from spreading through the body.

In the end, although one would lose a leg, life would be preserved.

It’s extrely rare to find soone decisive enough to amputate their own leg. Most people would try to bind their injured leg tightly to prevent the blood carrying the venom from flowing upwards.

Then they would seek to squeeze the poisoned blood out from the wound.

This thod can sotis save lives, but if you encounter a particularly powerful poisonous snake, it definitely won’t work.

Qin Niu had been poisoned by fire, and if he couldn’t suppress it, the poison would soon spread throughout his body. Eventually, his internal organs would boil alive, and he would die in agony.

“I will think of another way, please excuse !”

Qin Niu stood up and ran quickly toward the back yard.

Two attendants followed closely behind him.

“You don’t need to follow , just stay in the front hall. Xiao Qing, arrange two rooms for them to stay in.”

Qin Niu’s residence was quite large.

Accommodating a dozen or so servants was not a problem.

The four boys he had bought last ti lived in a room. Qin Niu had specifically asked Xiao Qing and another literate maid to teach the four boys how to read during their free ti.

Once they could read, they would be given books to study on their own.

Over ti, slowly nurtured, they would be able to share the worries of the Qin Residence and beco loyal servants of the household.

“It’s all my fault, I was so careless! What should I do now?”

Gongsun Jin showed imnse remorse.

Originally he had planned to leave imdiately after delivering the reward, but now seeing Qin Niu poisoned by fire, he worried about Qin Niu’s safety and had to stay temporarily to observe Qin Niu’s subsequent condition.

Qin Niu rushed to the back yard and directly leaped into the deep well.

Cold air was rising inside, the water’s temperature extrely low.

You could even see a thin layer of ice on the surface.

He discovered that the cold air of the Ice Lotus had a good effect in suppressing the fire poison, and his heart quietly rejoiced.

It seed he wouldn’t need to amputate his arm to save his life.

He dived to the bottom of the well, grasped the Ice Lotus, and strands of cold seeped into his left hand, seeming to gradually dilute the fire poison.

At this mont, the cultivation thods from dicine King Sutra erged in his mind.

After reaching the Innate Realm, the dicine King Sutra suggested you could directly absorb the dicinal properties of herbs into the body.

He tried to operate the dicine King Sutra and then followed the second layer of its thods.

Gradually, an alchemy stove ford from the concentration of his cultivation strength erged outside his body, spinning incessantly in front of him.

The Ice Lotus he was holding was pulled out of his grasp by a powerful suction, flying into the alchemy stove.

Even more miraculous was what happened next.

As Qin Niu continued to channel the strength of the dicine King Sutra, the alchemy stove incessantly drew the cold air from the Ice Lotus into Qin Niu’s body.

The fire poison in his left arm was washed away continuously, and he felt exceptionally comfortable.

The pain from the fire poison was steadily decreasing.

As ti passed, the fire poison in Qin Niu’s left arm had been completely controlled. A large amount of the poison had been weakened by the cold.

However, he still did not dare to be careless; this fire poison was extrely malignant and could easily flare up again.

Initially, only a hint of the fire poison had infiltrated his body, but in a very short ti, it spread ferociously to his left forearm, already passing the wrist joint.

Now, only a small cluster of the fire poison remained in the palm of his left hand.

But it was extrely stubborn and difficult to completely eradicate.

“Maybe if I cultivate in this well several tis, I could completely clear the fire poison from my body.”

Qin Niu, deeming it almost sufficient, slowly ceased his cultivation.

At that mont, he was surprised to find that the Ice Lotus had gradually shrunk along with the alchemy stove and then was absorbed into his body with it.

“This is too incredible!”

Via internal inspection, he quickly discovered an Ice Lotus within the alchemy stove in his body.

It had not disappeared; instead, cold air was continuously drawn from it in the alchemy stove. After extracting the cold, the stove delivered it to Qin Niu’s limbs and body.

The fire poison had been well-suppressed, and he no longer needed to worry about the issue.

A new problem erged.

The cold made Qin Niu feel severely chilled. If it continued for a long ti, he would turn into an ice sculpture.

At the sa ti, he also accidentally discovered a significant growth in the strength of his dicine King Sutra cultivation.

The Ice Lotus was a good thing; refined by the alchemy stove, it was the reason behind the remarkable increase in his cultivation strength.

This was a brand new cultivation thod he had figured out after his dicine King Sutra had advanced to the Innate Realm.

“Can I refine the Fire Lotus in the sa manner?”

Qin Niu pondered internally about the solution.
