Chapter 134: Cold Poison
Chapter 134: Cold Poison
I didn't expect that as the pill entered my body, the coldness in my body quickly spread throughout my body driven by the heat, and I became stiff and unable to move.
Qiuqiu used his remaining strength to activate a defensive array, and used his spiritual sense to activate the Duobao Jade hanging around his waist. After sending a cry for help to Qingheng, he became so stiff that he almost fainted!
As for the outside of the defense formation, a mad Jindan stage white bear ran over. Qiuqiu directly threw the snow shovel in his hand at it and detonated it with his spiritual sense before he completely fainted.
Qiuqiu hung the Duobao Jade around her waist so that she could contact Xuanchen and Xuanshen to avoid missing their messages. Unexpectedly, it saved her own life.
Qingheng, who was far away in the Dragon Island clan, had just finished training with two little dragon cubs in the clan's secret place. When he walked out of the isolation formation of the secret place, he received a call for help from Qiuqiu. He directly handed the two little dragon cubs to the clan leader Qingling next to him and used all his strength to advance towards the North Ice Field!
His speed is much faster than Qiuqiu's. It only takes one day for him to reach the North Ice Field if he travels at full speed. Based on the contract mark in his sea of consciousness, Qingheng can easily sense Qiuqiu's location!
He saw a scene that made Qing Heng's eyes bloodshot. Around the big ice pit, seven or eight snow wolves were ramming into the crumbling formation barrier. In the big pit not far outside the formation, a white bear that was eaten by the snow wolves was bleeding all over the ground, and the scattered flesh and skin had been frozen into the ice.
When Qingheng saw the blood all over the ground, his heart almost stopped and his eyes had turned blood red. Using the most primitive method, his original body, the Azure Dragon, teleported to the front of the snow wolf that was still attacking the formation, and tore it apart with his bare hands. With a ruthless face and wolf blood all over his body, Qingheng turned into a human form. When he saw Qiuqiu lying on the ground, still breathing weakly, his sanity slowly returned.
Qingheng picked up the cold and stiff Qiuqiu, and felt that the empty space in his heart that had been missing was now completely filled.
Unable to find out what was going on, he held the ball in his arms, set up a spiritual shield, and teleported back to the Dragon Clan with all his strength. He asked the best doctor of the Qinglong Clan to treat the ball, and at the same time sent a letter to his good friend Xuejian, asking him to rush to Dragon Island to rescue people.
Although he brought one more person with him, his speed was not slowed down at all. When he returned to the clan, he saw that the seventh elder who was good at medicine and his good friend Xuejian were waiting for him in his palace.
Qingheng put Qiuqiu down and signaled them to treat him quickly. During this time, he never let go of Qiuqiu's hand and kept feeling Qiuqiu's weak pulse, as if Qiuqiu would disappear if he let go!
The loneliness of searching in vain, waiting in vain, nearly drowned all my rationality. This was the awakening of my eternal consciousness under the strong stimulation of seeing the ball lying lifeless on the snow.
The two doctors' diagnosis brought Qing Heng back from a state of near-disordered control. "Madam has been struck by a cold poison, but the heart meridians have been protected, so she's fine for now. This poison is quite potent, and to cure it, according to clan records, one needs the blood of the Vermillion Bird as a lead, and a corresponding fire-source-catalyzed medicinal liquid."
"The Suzaku clan's bloodline has degenerated severely now. There is no usable Suzaku blood left." Qingheng was a little desperate.
Xue Jian consoled him, "With the appropriate medicinal solution, it should be possible! The reason your heart meridians are still intact despite the cold poison is because your sister-in-law possesses a contracted spiritual fire. However, without a master to energize it, it can only defend, not attack. It's also because the cold poison is too overbearing. Normal spiritual fires would consume their essence to resist it, and this contracted spiritual fire is probably quite weak."
Qing Heng has returned to normal and is thinking quickly about the current situation. He knows that Zhu Yan, the strongest person of the Vermillion Bird bloodline, has been in seclusion since his Taoist partner passed away.
He ordered the Seventh Elder to quickly find the necessary medicine in the warehouse, and then he was about to carry Qiuqiu to the Suzaku tribe's territory. Before leaving, he instructed the Seventh Elder, "Don't tell those two brats about Qiuqiu's condition. I ask you and the tribe leader to take care of him and train him well. The Dragon Tribe cannot afford to be weak!"
Xuejian followed Qingheng to the deepest part of the Suzaku Forest, which was outside a tree house on the top of a mountain between Yin and Yang. He touched the formation barrier and waited for a while, but there was no movement. He then increased the beating on the barrier. This time, the movement came from the belly of the mountain. Soon, a handsome man in black clothes, white hair and red eyebrows walked out. He should have been a fiery man, but he had an icy and cold temperament. He was a very contradictory person!
Zhu Yan: "What's the matter?" He looked at Qingheng and the ball in Qingheng's arms with cold eyes.
Qing Heng: "I need three drops of your blood essence and a portion of the Vermillion Bird Fire Essence. I don't know what the conditions are."
Zhu Yan: "You want to save her, who is she to you?"
Qing Heng: "A Taoist companion is someone who is more important than life!"
Zhu Yan's cold eyes lit up with nostalgia when he heard the word "Daoist companion." After hearing the phrase "more important than life," he murmured softly, "More important than life? She also said those two little lives are more important than her own... Then what am I?"
Seeing Zhu Yan lost in his own memories, Qing Heng lowered his head and brushed away the scattered hair on Qiuqiu's face, thinking to himself: If he doesn't agree to the deal, then I will just snatch him away, even if it means causing a war among the demons!
Xuejian next to him became anxious. Qiuqiu's condition was getting worse and worse. The cold poison had invaded his heart meridians. In the end, even with the medicine, it would be of no use. Two big guys, can you hurry up!
Perhaps it was because he heard Xuejian’s inner call that Zhu Yan finally returned to normal!
"I can agree to your terms, but you have to give me some demon cores in exchange."
Xuejian immediately objected. The demon core is the source of the demon race's power. If the demon core is damaged, only 50% of its combat power can be retained! Are these two crazy? Moreover, Qingheng is already a blue dragon, and his demon core is a dragon ball.
The Feather Clan is extremely loyal to their Taoist partners. Zhu Yan's Taoist partner belongs to the Black Bird Clan. They were together for hundreds of years before they conceived a child, and they were pregnant with extremely rare twins.
Before the couple could be happy for long, they found that Wu Que was very weak. She barely survived for three months with a large supply of natural treasures. Finally, Wu Que used the forbidden sacrificial technique without Zhu Yan's knowledge, sacrificing her life and cultivation to the fetus in her belly. She used her last strength to separate the fetus from her body, sealed it, and handed it to Zhu Yan, asking him to find a way to feed and hatch the cub, because to her, the cub she gave birth to was more important than her own life.
Qingheng looked at Qiuqiu gently and replied seriously: "Okay, I have to save my partner first." The dragon ball can be repaired through practice if it is damaged, but Qiuqiu cannot be in danger.
Although the powerful demons have long lives, compared with humans, they are more trustworthy and simple and unpretentious.
After hearing Qingheng's agreement, he took the three of them to a sunny cave. Qingheng first took out a large medicine refining pool, then injected wood spiritual energy into the various spiritual medicines brought by Xuejian to sort out their medicinal properties, and then asked Xuejian to refine them into liquid medicine.
During this process, Zhu Yan abided by the agreement. He first forced out three drops of blood and stored them in a jade bottle. Then he separated a wisp of the original Vermillion Bird Fire, gave it to Qing Heng to seal, and then returned to the clan's underground fire pool to recuperate.
