"You have done well..."
Seeing that Donkey was able to outrun a stallion, Su Yin nodded his head in satisfaction. Looks like... I didn't raise him for so many years for nothing. At crucial moments like this, he was still quite reliable!
"It can't be that you have the strength to turn into a demonic beast, right?" Zhang Xuan turned to look at Dahei.
"No, no!" With a dazed look, Donkey let out a long neigh.
"Looks like I was overthinking things..." Seeing the other party deny it, Su Yin shook his head.
This fellow had been with him for a long time, and it had eaten quite a lot of food. It was understandable that it was able to understand human speech, so it was slightly stronger and faster. However, it was unlikely that it had the strength to do so!
After all, demonic beasts had to cultivate as well. Without a cultivation technique, how could it cultivate?
It couldn't possibly kill someone with just its hooves!
"Forget it, let's head back first!"
Seeing that the sun was about to set, Su Yin decided not to dwell on this matter anymore. Riding on his donkey, he rushed in the direction of the Secluded Immortal Residence.
On the other hand, Donkey, seeing that Zhang Xuan didn't pursue the matter any further, heaved a sigh of relief. If I were to run so fast, I would really be a mule!
...
Great Salt Merchant Company.
Mo Yuan hurriedly headed to where Bai Yiran was. As he walked, he listened to Chu Jiang's explanation of the situation. The more he heard, the more awful his complexion became.
"You fed her a Spirit Replenishing Pill?"
"Yes!"
Chu Jiang explained, "She is suffering from a deficiency in both her Qi and blood, and the vitality in her body is fading away too quickly. In order to preserve her life, she can only use the Energy Replenishing Pill to replenish her vitality. Otherwise, I'm afraid that she would be gone before the Founder arrives..."
"Fool!"
A berating voice interrupted his words. Mo Yuan's voice was filled with rage. "Spirit Replenishing Pill is made from ginseng, deer antler, snow lotus, Celestial Green Grass, Summer Sun Flower, and other nourishing herbs... It is a nourishing pill. Usually, cultivators who are severely injured or whose zhenqi is running low can consume it to recover their vitality. However, she has been plagued with illness for many years and is extremely weak. How can she endure such a powerful pill? What's the difference between feeding her by force and directly killing her? "
Even though she had guessed that Bai Yiran's condition would flare up in the next few days, she didn't expect it to be so soon. She also didn't expect the doctor to use the most foolish method to treat her when she wasn't by her side.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Mo Yuan turned his head and scolded, "Yunfeng, he's stupid, and you're also stupid. Didn't you teach him the four words' weak body can't withstand nourishment '? Don't you know that if you're too weak, you shouldn't use such a strong medicine? "
Scolding this grand-disciple whom he had just met for the first time was too beneath his dignity. Thus, he could only vent his anger on this "uneducated" grand-disciple.
"I …" Yunfeng Physicians' face turned pale.
It was common for physicians to fail to take in nourishment when prescribing medicine, and he must have taught it before. However, the situation was critical, and he didn't understand the other party's condition, so it wasn't wrong for him to use it directly!
Not to mention the other party, even he might use it.
Chu Jiang trembled when he saw the Martial Ancestor getting angry. He didn't dare to say a single word.
Just now, someone seemed to have advised him not to give the other party this medicine, but … he seemed to have been reprimanded by him!
Of course, he didn't dare to say anything at this moment. Otherwise, the Martial Ancestor would definitely split him into two …
"Then, what do we do now?"
After the Martial Ancestor was done scolding, Yunfeng Physicians asked cautiously.
He had never seen the illness that his disciple was talking about. If she didn't consume the Qi Replenishing Pill, she would be dead in less than half an incense's time. If she consumed it, the exhaustion would be even greater … Even he was helpless.
"Let's go over and take a look. If she has already stopped breathing, even the gods won't be able to save her. If there's still some life left in her, we can try that method!"
After venting his anger, Mo Yuan calmed down and sighed.
"This …"
Taken aback, Yunfeng Physicians' face suddenly paled. "Is grand master referring to … the legendary 【Reversal Art】, which is said to be extremely difficult to complete?"
"Un!"
Mo Yuan nodded. "Bai Yiran's body isn't in good condition. Furthermore, she has consumed the Qi Replenishing Pill. Thus, normal methods won't work on her!"
"But … the Reversal Art has been lost for a long time. If we were to make a mistake, even the gods won't be able to save her!" Yunfeng Physicians said anxiously.
"I know that as well. However, given the current situation, is there a better solution?" Mo Yuan shook his head.
Yunfeng Physicians was at a loss for words. After a moment of silence, he replied, "Indeed, there isn't a better solution …"
Her vitality was so weak that even the Qi Replenishing Pill didn't work on her. This meant that she was already at the end of her life.
"Teacher, what is … the Reversal Art?"
By the side, Chu Jiang couldn't help but ask.
"The Reversal Art was created many years ago by a grade-9 pinnacle physician in the continent. In order to save his lover, he created the Reversal Art. The Reversal Art is, in fact, a way to revive someone from death!" Yunfeng Physicians explained.
"Revive someone from death?"
"Un. Regardless of whether one is severely ill or frail, there will be a short period of time before their death when their mental state, thoughts, and even stamina are far superior to their normal state! You should know about this, right? "Yunfeng Physicians asked.
"Terminal lucidity?" Chu Jiang looked at him doubtfully.
"That's right, terminal lucidity! The Reversal Art uses a unique method to search for this short period of time when one is on the brink of death! Once found, the medicinal tonics that one couldn't consume in the past can be consumed at this moment. Furthermore, it can be assimilated at the fastest speed possible! "
Yunfeng Physicians said. "This way, not only can one recover from the terminal lucidity, one can even extend one's lifespan for a short period of time! It's a true way to revive someone from death! "
"This …"
Chu Jiang's body shuddered in disbelief. "How is that possible? Putting aside the fact that the terminal lucidity is extremely short, even if one were to find it, it wouldn't take more than half an incense's time … How much medicinal tonics can one assimilate in such a short period of time? Who can guarantee that one will survive after breaking through the boundary of death? "
"Indeed, it's too difficult!" Yunfeng Physicians shook his head. "Not only is it difficult to grasp the timing, there's also the method used to prevent one from truly dying despite being on the brink of death! Under normal circumstances, one would use lethal poison. However, everyone's physique is different, and they are in different states. How much poison can be used to maintain the state of death? Putting aside me, even a grade-9 physician wouldn't be able to do it! "
If one couldn't treat the patient using such a method, one would surely die. Even if one managed to treat the patient, if one didn't find a way to resolve the root of the illness, one would still die in a short period of time … Thus, it wasn't widely circulated.
"Grand master, did the physician who came up with this method succeed?" Yunfeng Physicians asked.
"He succeeded, but he only managed to extend his lover's lifespan by a month. Later on, there were others who tried it as well, but less than a tenth of them survived. In other words, out of ten people, not a single one survived."
Mo Yuan shook his head and sighed. "Given Bai Yiran's current state, other methods are useless. Thus, we can only resort to this method! If it succeeds, she'll be able to live longer. If it fails … I'll personally seek forgiveness from the Great Yan royalty! "
Who would be willing to resort to such a method until the very end? But now, there was really no other way.
"Let's go over to take a look. Hopefully, there's still a chance for us to save her …"
By the time the trio finished speaking, the stall selling medicinal herbs had already appeared in their sight. A bunch of guards were standing on the spot with a depressed expression on their faces.
On the other hand, the lady whom they were worried about was lying motionlessly on the soft bed, as though she had already stopped breathing.
"We're late …"
In an instant, the trio froze, and their hearts sank to the bottom of a lake.
