Chen Yan thought for a mont and judged that Gu Tongbing likely wasn’t lying to him, so he nodded and said, "Now, tell how to save your life."
Gu Tongbing said, "Take off my outer robe. My sleeves are a Magical Artifact, nad ’Sleeve Universe,’ which is a Magical Treasure. Inside, I carry Elixirs, including the Antidote Pills I made myself..."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Yan had already pulled Gu Tongbing’s body over, reached out with both hands, and swiftly undid the black long robe from him, peeling it off quickly to examine it closely.
This robe’s fabric was extraordinary, and the sleeves were indeed special, with threads faintly visible, made from so unknown special materials.
Gu Tongbing taught Chen Yan a Spell to activate the "Sleeve Universe."
Chen Yan recited the incantation, and with a flick of the sleeves and a flow of Primordial Qi, he instantly activated this Magical Treasure!
At that mont, all sorts of items stored within the treasure were completely covered by Chen Yan’s Divine Sense.
"Your possessions are indeed abundant." After scanning his Divine Sense over, Chen Yan couldn’t help but exhale.
Indeed worthy of being the legitimate son of a top Domain Realm noble family, a top-tier rich heir.
Within his "Sleeve Universe," at least ten or more Magical Artifacts were stored! Among them, three or four were damaged, but the rest were intact.
With a quick glance, surprisingly, two were Upper Grade Magical Artifacts!
In addition, there were over a hundred thousand Jade Coins and dozens of bottles of Elixirs.
There were several special Spell restrictions, seemingly tightly enveloping so items. Just from looking at it, the spell was of a high level, which Chen Yan could not decipher.
Following Gu Tongbing’s guidance, Chen Yan picked out a bottle that looked as green as jade from among the dozens of Elixir bottles. The bottle was made from Upper Grade Dharma Artifact Materials, engraved with dark patterns, and the mouth carried a hint of spell restriction, making it a bottle for preserving spiritual dicine—this Elixir bottle alone was an entry-level Magical Artifact.
Within this bottle was the Detoxification Pill, formulated by Gu Tongbing himself—Chen Yan wasn’t surprised about this guy being able to refine Elixirs, as there was also an Alchemy Furnace in his "Sleeve Universe," albeit of higher grade than the Octagonal Alchemy Furnace Chen Yan possessed.
Upon opening the bottle, a waft of Elixir fragrance erged, and upon inhaling, a refreshing breeze circulated within his lungs, making his body feel lighter.
Although Chen Yan hadn’t practiced Alchemy much, he had spent so ti at the Celestial Demon Yin Yang Joyful Sect, identifying various herbs. From this detoxification pill, he slled two familiar spiritual herb fragrances, which were types used for detoxification.
As for other herbs, his novice Alchemy knowledge couldn’t identify them.
Tilting the Elixir bottle, he poured out a pill about the size of a bean, the Elixir red in color, emitting a faint Elixir aura.
"If you consu this, will it detoxify you?" Chen Yan held the Elixir and looked at Gu Tongbing.
Gu Tongbing shook his head, bitterly smiling, "As if it were that easy.
The poison from the Parasitic Spider directly harms a cultivator’s Divine Sense and intellect, especially after it consud fruits from the Glazed Purple Treasure Vine, enhancing the poison’s strength several tis over, adding so inexplicable changes.
The detoxification pill I formulated is only for ergency use, to temporarily alleviate the poison and preserve my life.
I calculate that after consuming one pill, I can seal my Divine Soul from poison corrosion. Thereafter, one pill every seven days can suppress the poison’s onset. The drug’s potency allows to survive for up to three months.
After three months, my pill will no longer control the Parasitic Spider’s poison.
Within three months, I need to return, find suitable precious spiritual herbs, and request a Great Cultivator’s assistance to remove the poison, thus achieving true detoxification."
Pausing, he bitterly smiled and said, "Even so, during this period, my Primordial Qi will deplete, rendering almost ordinary, unable to wield any mana. After detoxification, I also need to enter seclusion; it could take months or even years to slowly restore my cultivation."
Chen Yan laughed, looking at Gu Tongbing, "Is what you’re saying true?"
"Of course it’s true."
"Swear a Heavenly Dao oath that you have not deceived ."
"..." Gu Tongbing looked at Chen Yan powerlessly, rolling his eyes but shook his head saying, "You’re overly cautious."
"You’re treacherous and ruthless; with people like you, caution is never excessive." Chen Yan replied coldly, "Will you swear or not? If not, I’ll toss this Elixir into the water."
Gu Tongbing had no choice but to muster all his strength, squeezing out the remaining trace of Primordial Qi, and at the scene swore a Heavenly Dao oath to ensure he wasn’t deceiving Chen Yan, promising to speak no falsehood.
Only then did Chen Yan feel reassured and stuffed the detoxification pill into Gu Tongbing’s mouth.
Upon swallowing the Elixir, Gu Tongbing imdiately sighed deeply, letting out a gulp and swallowed the pill.
Seeing his relieved look, Chen Yan coldly smiled and said, "You fear death too."
"Obviously, who doesn’t fear death?" Gu Tongbing shook his head, "I’m just ruthless; it’s not that I’m unafraid of dying. I have big plans, how can I die casually."
After speaking, he closed his mouth, struggling to sit up from the ground—he was incredibly weak, took three attempts to do so successfully, and eventually, Chen Yan couldn’t bear it, extending a hand to help him up.
