The youngest princess looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. Though she resided in the royal family, adorned in fine silks and enjoying exquisite als, her body was in excellent health. However, her face still retained traces of youthful innocence.
She was still just a big child.
The eldest among them appeared to be in his forties or fifties.
Hearing Chu Feng’s question, the group exchanged glances before looking at the Eight Virtuous Princes and finally, the eldest prince answered.
"We were all bitten by the sa corpse during the refining process, each in different locations!" As soon as he opened his mouth to speak, the sharp fangs were revealed, appearing quite terrifying.
Their bodies seed very stiff, like marionettes.
This is a symptom that appears after being afflicted with corpse poison for a considerable length of ti. Indeed, the stiffening of muscles and bones is also a sign of a deep poisoning.
"Corpse refining also has several levels. Ordinary refined corpses have imnse strength, but move slowly and have limited combat ability; their corpse poison is not particularly frightening. One rely needs to take a First-grade Detoxification Pill from our Longevity Hall to neutralize the corpse poison."
"If the person was a General in life, they might beco enveloped in evil qi after death, turning into a more formidable Black and White Evil Corpse. These possess greater abilities, but a warrior of the Sword God Level should generally be able to fight them. Even if they cannot win, escaping is certainly no issue."
Among the six injured, three have reached the Sword God Cultivation.
These individuals, under the heavy protection of the Imperial Guard of the Imperial Palace, were still bitten, indicating that the refined corpse must be more terrifying than the Black and White fiends.
"It is said that when an Emperor rules, the Emperor’s Qi is bestowed upon him. Even after death, as long as the mystical thods are used to preserve it, the Emperor’s Qi will not dissipate. It will condense within the corpse, and then special techniques are used to nurture it. Over ti, the corpse absorbs the power of moonlight, and begins to transform."
"Once such a corpse becos a refined corpse, it will be more terrifying than any other refined corpse. There are legends from the Pre-Qin period about a great number of Qin Corpses, among which the most supre was transford from the First Emperor himself."
"From the severe symptoms of your poisoning, it seems likely that the one who bit you is also one of these last described refined corpses."
It wasn’t for nothing that Chu Feng was known as the Eternal Life Pill Master; he spoke fluently and with deep understanding about such mysterious creatures of corpse refining.
The few present all showed expressions of shock and admiration.
Before they ca, although the Eight Virtuous Princes had praised Chu Feng to the skies, they were unwilling to believe it. Only now, after listening to Chu Feng’s analysis, were they truly convinced.
"Alchemist Chu possesses discerning insight and vast knowledge, truly admirable! Just as you’ve said, what bit them was a very special refined corpse. It was none other than the Founding Emperor of the Vermilion Bird Heavenly Country who, due to an accident, was gravely injured back then."
"After escaping back, he listened to an artificer’s advice, used secret techniques to seal the Emperor’s Qi inside his body, and then buried it in a profoundly Yin burial site. As of today, it has been nurtured for no less than a million years. Quite recently, our ancestor suddenly broke out of the grave and bit them. It is peculiar that after its resurrection, it still seed to possess spiritual wisdom and only bit mbers of the Imperial Family, but it did not kill them."
"Yet, those guarding the Imperial Mausoleum were all killed."
Realizing he could no longer conceal the matter, the Eight Virtuous Princes ca clean and narrated the events of that night.
"Fortunately, most mbers of the Imperial Family were cultivating in a secret location that night. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable."
Speaking of the events of that night, the Eight Virtuous Princes still felt a lingering fear.
Chu Feng understood that the mbers of the Imperial Family were largely absent that night. That was precisely when the palace’s defenses were at their weakest.
The Founding Emperor of the Vermilion Bird Heavenly Country chose neither an earlier nor a later ti to break out of the grave, but precisely that mont, likely for no shallow reason.
However, Chu Feng was too indifferent to dig deeper into such matters.
The Imperial Palace was always full of intrigues.
Just like the last ti soone poisoned the Eight Virtuous Princes and caused harm in secret, it also involved so conspiracy.
Now that he understood the situation clearly, Chu Feng no longer delayed and proceeded to diagnose the six individuals one by one, imdiately giving out a treatnt plan.
"Because these six individuals are deeply poisoned to a severe extent, ordinary thods are hardly effective. Therefore, I am planning to use three thods to treat them simultaneously."
"Taking Detoxification Elixir internally, coupled with a dicinal bath, and Breaking Veins and Bloodletting! With these three approaches, we should be able to save them."
Chu Feng thought for a mont and said seriously.
"Alright, let’s do as Alchemist Chu says! Please take great care!" The Eight Virtuous Princes imdiately approved.
After all, Chu Feng’s abilities were well known, and he had great confidence in Chu Feng.
Unexpectedly, the princess in her twenties disagreed.
"I can accept taking the Detoxification Elixir and Breaking Veins and Bloodletting, but having a dicinal bath in front of you, a man, is absolutely unacceptable."
"Princess Zi Qiong, diseases do not regard doctors with suspicion. Alchemist Chu is of high morality and upright spirit, he will absolutely not take any improper advantage of you. As for your concerns about ruining your reputation, as long as it is kept secret, outsiders will not know."
The Eight Virtuous Princes hastily persuaded her.
This Princess Zi Qiong really doesn’t know the seriousness of the situation, other people even have to beg Chu Feng for treatnt, and he might not even agree.
"If Princess Zi Qiong doesn’t accept the dicinal bath, forgive my directness, there’s no need to waste my Detoxification Elixir and ti. Even with all thods applied, the chances of curing you all are only about fifty percent."
Chu Feng explained realistically.
At this point, when everyone is almost turning into zombies, she still dares to put on airs like a princess.
It’s truly suffering for vanity’s sake.
If it wasn’t for the Eight Virtuous Princes earnestly begging, Chu Feng wouldn’t bother with these matters at all.
"Fine, this princess agrees to your treatnt plan!" Between her life and her reputation, Princess Zi Qiong chose the forr.
The task was not as easy as imagined, Chu Feng worked overti to refine a furnace of Advanced Level Detoxification Pills. He was surprised to find that after the Nine Yang Strange Fire had advanced, refining elixirs had beco much easier.
The success rate of the pills was also higher.
No wonder all Pill Masters have an intense desire for Abnormal Fires. It truly is a good thing.
The Abnormal Fire of the Azure Fla Pill Master which was absorbed by Chu Feng, must be filled with hatred every day.
After preparing the Detoxification Pills, Chu Feng wrote out a prescription, adding glutinous rice among other things, to simr the dicine Soup.
After everything was ready, more than a day had passed.
"Here are six rooms, each one of you will have one room. First sit in the dicated tub, then take the Detoxification Pill. I will co by one by one to break your veins for you. Rember, Breaking Veins and Bloodletting needs to be done at the most appropriate mont, choosing the vein where the corpse poison is most concentrated. Do not try to do the Breaking Veins and Bloodletting on your own, otherwise, it will only backfire."
Chu Feng inford the six of them about the important details.
"Your Highness the Prince has many responsibilities to manage, if you must attend to them, please go ahead. I will do my best to treat these individuals."
"Thank you!"
The Eight Virtuous Princes looked earnestly at Chu Feng, bowed, and left with his subordinates.
