Su Fan knew that if he did not act now to treat him, Zhao Chunqiu would really be at death's door.
Imdiately, he said, "Old Zhao, please sit cross-legged. I will help you detoxify."
Zhao Chunqiu initially shook his head, but ultimately let out a sigh and said, "Alright, give it a try."
"I have been poisoned with Tang Tingwei's unique poison. He said that apart from him, even the other mbers of the Tang sect wouldn't know how to cure it."
"This poison is indeed very potent. On the way back, I constantly felt as if my end was nigh."
As he spoke these words, Su Fan did not respond but instead focused intently on treating Zhao Chunqiu.
His treatnt for Zhao Chunqiu relied solely on his own precious blood.
Because Tang Tingwei wasn't lying; even Su Fan couldn't discern what kind of poison Zhao Chunqiu had been afflicted with.
But his precious blood was the bane of the Tang sect that originated from Shu.
No matter the poison, when faced with his blood that was immune to all toxins, it would be imdiately vanquished.
Zhao Chunqiu, although he let him give it a try, clearly held no hope.
At this ti, Zhao Chunqiu still sped up his speech deliberately, talking about his deep-seated hatred.
"Cough cough..."
After coughing up blood twice, Zhao Chunqiu wiped it carelessly and continued speaking.
"My family's ancestor was once a martial champion personally appointed by the Qing emperor."
"In his generation, there were scarcely a few who could match him."
"In the end, he didn't set out to sea to challenge other experts but to seek immortality."
"Of course, it sounds rather laughable to ntion this now."
At this point, Zhao Chunqiu paused before continuing.
"Though my ancestor did not find the fabled immortal mountains at sea, he did befriend Yagyu Junichiro, an expert in Sword Dao from the Eastern Seas."
"The two dueled for four to five years without determining a victor and were preparing to return ho, having agreed to fight again in five years, once their skills had further advanced."
"Unexpectedly, an earthquake struck the island where they were staying at that ti."
"The quake opened up a cave left by ancients on the island."
"In that cave, both my ancestor and Yagyu Junichiro obtained a secret manual each."
Hearing this, Su Fan's interest was also piqued.
Ever since he received the Tai Chi Jade Pendant from Chen Tai, he knew that there were indeed so extraordinary artifacts in the world.
But ordinary people, even masters at Chen Tai's level, after obtaining such treasures, could only guard them without the ability to use them.
Let alone Chen Tai, when Su Fan initially received the Tai Chi Jade Pendant, it did not take imdiate effect in his possession.
Su Fan had thought that my ancestor and that Eastern Sea ronin, Yagyu Junichiro, would each have received a secret manual.
But the reality was not so.
At this ti, Zhao Chunqiu continued, "The secret manual my ancestor obtained was a formula for crafting a type of material."
"That was a material called Yang Iron Sand. You might not have heard of Yang Iron Sand, but... "
Without waiting for Zhao Chunqiu to continue, Su Fan spoke with so surprise, "Is it a material with a strength even higher than that of refined steel?"
Refined steel created with a special formula and forging technique was so strong that its strength even surpassed that of modern titanium alloys.
He had heard from his grandfather in the mountains about a material called Yang Iron Sand; the alloy forged from it had a strength even greater than refined steel.
This ti, Zhao Chunqiu was sowhat surprised as he did not expect soone to be aware of a material like Yang Iron Sand.
After Su Fan spoke, he nodded in acknowledgnt, "Indeed, tals forged with Yang Iron Sand have a strength surpassing that of titanium alloys and refined steel."
"The ancient who left the secret manual in that sea island cave was actually a Fangshi who was very active during the pre-Qin period."
