Chapter 57: Detoxification
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The Book of the Pill Lord contained instruction on how refine the pills, which ranged from Rank One to Five. All kinds of training pills, healing pills, and breakthrough pills were recorded in the book. It even clearly detailed their raw materials and their sources.
It was said that once, there was a talented alchemist who accidentally got their hands on The Book of the Pill Lord. Within a few years, he immediately became a master alchemist.
After that alchemist died, his property was put up for auction, including his Book of The Pill Lord.
However, the auction was not held successfully. Once The Book of the Pill Lord was in sight, a number of people attempted to steal the book.
This battle lasted for three days and three nights. During the competition between several major martial arts masters, The Book of the Pill Lord fell off a cliff, and its whereabout became unknown.
It was an alchemist of the Mo family who, while searching for medicine, accidentally found the Book.
It can be said that with this book, as long as you weren’t a poor alchemist, it was only a matter of time before anyone would become a Rank Five alchemist.
Once you became a Rank Five alchemist, your status throughout the Tianwu Kingdom would heighten dramatically.
“The Book of the Pill Lord? You have it?”
Ye Mo was intrigued. He once heard of the Book of the Pill Lord from Elder Yin. It was surely a very intellectual text and was something that all alchemists dreamed of obtaining.
Moreover, the Mo Clan owned this rare book. That’s why it was only when Mo Feng spoke of the book, rather than just anybody, that he showed an interest in it.
“Yes. As long as you let me go, I will give it to you.”
When Mo Feng saw that Ye Mo was intrigued, he could not have been any happier. For pill fanatics like Ye Mo, the Book of the Pill Lord was still too tempting to resist. Once he saw the right opportunity, he had planned to make his escape.
After that, he would tell the Barbarians that Ye Mo had killed Man Thai. The Barbarians would be infuriated, and the whole Ye Clan will face the consequences of Ye Mo’s actions.
“Show me the Book of the Pill Lord. If you lie to me, I will make sure you’ll wish you were dead.” Ye Mo pointed his spear at Mo Feng. A chill went straight down Mo Feng’s spine, like a sharp knife slicing through his body, causing him to start trembling again.
Mo Feng did not doubt Ye Mo at all. If he really didn’t have the Book of Pill Lords, Ye Mo would definitely kill him immediately.
“I do not have The Book of the Pill Lord at this moment. It is in the warehouse of the Mo Clan right now. I can help you steal it.”
Mo Feng paced back and forth with a terrified expression on his face. Just one shake of Ye Mo’s arm, and he was sure he’d be dead.
“Help me to steal it? What if I let you go and then you stab me in the back?”
Although the Book of the Pill Lord was tempting to him, he was also fully aware of the consequences of letting Mo Feng go alive. There wouldn’t be a better time to kill Mo Feng than now.
“Die!” Ye Mo glared at Mo Feng. The Formation-Breaking Spear projected a blood red ray aimed right at Mo Feng’s heart.
“Ye Mo, Qi Ying is still under the effects of the Happy Excursion. If you don’t detoxify her immediately, she will soon explode and die.” Mo Feng glanced at Qi Ying and shouted loudly.
The force of the Formation-Breaking Spear pierced through Mo Feng’s clothes, but the spear stopped right in front of him.
Ye Mo saw Qi Ying’s appearance and immediately knew something was wrong. He went immediately to Qi Ying and hold her up in his arms.
“I must find a way to detoxify Qi Ying now!” Ye Mo murmured, frowning slightly.
Mo Feng had found his opportunity. His expression changed. He grabbed the two people behind him and threw them right at Ye Mo while he darted away and escaped.
“Ye Mo, you just wait! I, Mo Feng, get my payback for today’s humiliation!”
After cursing Ye Mo, Mo Feng had already gotten quite far away.
The two human shields were Mo Chihu and Mo Xiaowu, who were both shocked at first, but stabilized themselves and stopped in front of Ye Mo. They both looked disappointed. They never thought Mo Feng would use them as his human shields.
When Ye Mo saw them lurching forward, he took out his Formation-Breaking Spear. He aimed his spear, not at Mo Chihu or Mo Xiaowu, but at Mo Feng as he escaped.
Ye Mo was scornful towards and never hesitated to kill those who used their companions as human shields.
“Don’t kill my young master!”
When Mo Xiaohu saw Ye Mo throw his spear, the outline of a body blurred past Ye Mo. Mo Xiaphu blocked the spear with her own body. The spear pierced right through her and blood spurted out, flying across the air, dying it blood red.
“Xiaohu!”
When Mo Chihu saw what had happened, his eyes went red, and he screamed, rushing to catch Mo Xiaowu’s body.
“Xiaohu, why did you do this? Mo Feng is not worthy of you dying for him.” Mo Chihu said.
“So… sorry… Find someone who loves you more!” After finishing this sentence, Mo Xiaohu fainted and died.
Ye Mo watched this scene and secretly sighed. He did not know whether it was lucky or unfortunate to have a master like Mo Feng.
However, Ye Mo wasted no time on them. He retrieved his spear, and then immediately took Qi Ying to a cave he found. When Ye Mo put her down, her vision was already blurred, and her breath sped up.
At this moment, the power of the Happy Excursion had made its way throughout her body. If Qi Ying’s strength could recover to the Energy Shaping Seventh Realm, she could use her own Yuanli to force the drug out.
However, she was injured and had exhausted her strength. The power of the Happy Excursion had taken full effect within her body.
“Ling Er, Qi Ying seems to be having a difficult time. What is the Happy Excursion?”
Ye Mo looked at what was happening in front of him. His heart beat faster, and his breathing quickened in concern for Qi Ying.
“Idiot! Idiot!” Although Ling Er had no idea what the Happy Excursion was, from what she could tell from her appearances, Ling Er guessed, “An evil poison?”
Although Ye Mo did not understand, he saw Qi Ying’s appearance and knew the pain must have been unbearable. He immediately put his palm on her chest and began to initiate his Rising Dragon Pillar
The Rising Dragon Pillar could absorb anything, so naturally, it should also be able to absorb the evil poison inside Qi Ying.
Ye Mo urged the Rising Dragon Pillar to awaken. A black vortex appeared once again. Ye Mo summoned a trace of black Yuanli and directed it swiftly towards Qi Ying’s body. This black Yuanli contained an Engulfing Force, which absorbed the evil poison invading her body.
As expected, under the absorption of the Rising Dragon Pillar, Qi Ying looked slightly better, and her breath also became much smoother.
However, Ye Mo had not yet stopped the poison. He directed more black Yuanli to Qi Ying’s body several times, eventually eradicating all of the evil poison inside her body. Ye Mo was relieved when Qi Ying had fully recovered.
Presumably, all of the evil poison had been cleared out of Qi Ying’s body.
Ye Mo retracted the trace of black Yuanli while the black vortex absorbed it. But then, Ye Mo realized that something had gone wrong. After the Rising Dragon Pillar absorbed that last trace of Yuanli, an immense energy erupted, dissipated around the Energy Center, and then began invading his entire body.
“Idiot! Idiot! You absorbed the evil poison, so now it’ss your turn to become poisoned.”
