Mortality cos in five forms; even the gods find it difficult to save.
Given Mo Han’s dical skills, even if he exerted all his efforts to apply the Purple Cloud Needle Technique, it would be extrely challenging to pull the old lady back from the brink of death.
This was a matter of fate; how could a re mortal contend with the King of Hell?
The only thing that could possibly save the old lady was the Qiankun Elixir, which possessed the power to reverse the laws of the universe and to bring the dead back to life.
He reached his right hand into his bosom, where a White Jade Vase was hidden inside his pocket, containing nine Qiankun Elixirs.
Just as he was about to take out a Qiankun Elixir, the old lady on the bed suddenly quivered, her originally pale cheeks instantly turning purplish-black. With a pfft, a mouthful of black blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, instantly staining her neck and clothes black.
"Auntie!"
Miss Qin hurried forward in a panic.
"Don’t move! This is the poison within the old lady escaping!"
Mo Han intercepted Qin i’er with his right hand, saying gravely, "To save the old lady, the urgent task at hand is to first detoxify."
"If I’m not mistaken, the old lady must have been poisoned by snake venom, and not just any snake, but the Blue Snake that can only be found in the Rainbow South."
"Blue Snake? Rainbow South?"
Miss Qin was startled upon hearing this. "How could that be possible! Auntie and I live in Yanziwu, and we have never seen a Blue Snake."
"How could Auntie possibly be poisoned by a Blue Snake!"
Xue Qingniu’s eyes lit up, and he suddenly smacked his forehead, "How could I have overlooked snake venom? Right! The old lady foaming at the mouth and in convulsions—that’s exactly the symptoms of snake venom poisoning!"
Seeing even Doctor Xue acknowledging it, Miss Qin finally felt a bit relieved. She looked at Mo Han eagerly and asked in a deep voice, "Mister Mo, how sure are you about curing Auntie Chen?"
"It’s a bit tricky, but not a big problem."
Mo Han replied, then imdiately said to Xue Qingniu, "There’s no ti to waste, we must detoxify the old lady promptly."
"Xue Lao, do you have silver needles with you?"
"I do."
Xue Qingniu quickly handed over the needle case he carried with him, muttering to himself, "The Blue Snake lives year-round in the damp conditions of Yunzhou in the Rainbow South, known for its particularly fierce temperant and powerful attack. The poison it carries is exceptionally potent."
"Ordinary people bitten by a Blue Snake would die within seconds."
"Auntie Chen convulsed and foad at the mouth while basking on the balcony; from the symptoms, it truly seems like that was the case."
"Could it be that Auntie Chen really suffered a Blue Snake bite and her Innate True Qi automatically operated to neutralize part of the venom, temporarily preserving her life?"
Gui Nongsang nodded gravely and said, "This possibility is very high. The old lady is a martial artist of the Innate Realm, her physique extraordinary, it is very likely that her Innate True Qi helped her avoid this disaster."
"However, with the old lady’s advanced age, coupled with her old injuries, although Innate True Qi can neutralize so of the snake venom, the excessive consumption also hastened the ebbing of her life force, hence the appearance of Mortality’s five forms!"
The two went back and forth, analyzing the old lady’s condition in great detail.
Mo Han took the needle case and first took out three silver needles, then opened the dical alcohol on the table next to him.
After disinfection with a cotton swab, he held a silver needle in his right hand and aid for the Baihui, Qingming, and Danzhong acupoints on the old lady.
"This..."
Xue Qingniu watched intently as Mo Han applied the needles, his eyes wide with astonishnt.
It must be understood that the Baihui, Qingming, and Danzhong acupoints are among the body’s nine lethal points, where a slight mishap can result in instant death for the person being needled.
"Brother, don’t worry, Master Mo is a man of great skill and profound knowledge. His dical expertise, you can definitely trust!" said Gui Nongsang, having previously witnessed Mo Han’s miraculous needling technique and thus not surprised at all.
Qin i’er was initially worried, but seeing that both Doctor Gui Nongsang and Doctor Xue Qingniu did not speak out to stop it, she swallowed back the words she was about to say.
As Mo Han’s silver needles descended, strands of gas as thin as smoke gently seeped into the old lady’s body.
"Dispelling Clouds to Reveal the Moon!"
Mo Han exclaid in a low voice. The three silver needles, arranged in a ’品’ shape, emitted a faint glow as a vigorous current rushed into the old lady’s extraordinary vessels and channels.
About half a minute later, the dark purple on the old lady’s face slowly receded, like the light dispelling the night at the break of dawn, heralding a rebirth.
Although the old lady had not yet woken up, everyone present could feel that she was once again alive.
"How... how is this possible?"
Qin i’er watched, utterly astounded, murmuring, "Just with three silver needles, she brought back Auntie Chen who was on the verge of death?"
"No, not yet," said Gui Nongsang gravely. "What Mister Mo used just now, ’Dispelling Clouds to Reveal the Moon,’ served to drive the snake venom out of the old lady’s body."
"To break the Mortality’s five forms, it is far from enough."
Xue Qingniu nodded in agreent and said solemnly while looking at the old lady, "True, Auntie Chen’s complexion has beco much rosier, but her vitality has not yet fully recovered."
"I am also very curious to know what ans Mister Mo has to break the Mortality’s five forms and snatch the old lady from the hands of the King of Hell."
Gradually, a flush of red appeared on the old lady’s face, and the silver needles inserted at the three fatal acupoints turned as black as if they were inked.
As everyone watched, Mo Han flipped his right hand in the air, and the three needles soaked in dark blood shot out as if pulled by a thread.
"Qi Silk Condensation, shaping Qi into form; what sort of divine technique is this?"
Xue Qingniu was outright stunned, having never seen anyone twist their True Qi into silver threads and control objects from a half-ter away.
Qin i’er’s lips trembled slightly as she suddenly rembered the allegations against Mo Han at Luo Ning’s opening ceremony, where Cheng Debiao and others had accused him of killing a man with just a single silver needle.
Could all that be true?
