Chapter 1548: Heavenly Blood Marrow-Exchange Pill
Peerless Medicine God · 第1548章 天血换髓丹
Huang Qian's body trembled violently, and golden blood seeped from every pore.
He became a blood-soaked figure, hideous and terrifying, evoking a sense of shock.
He looked utterly miserable.
Yet, streaks of golden light radiated from Huang Qian's entire body, making him appear strangely sacred.
This stark contrast left everyone bewildered.
They were all curious about what pill Ye Yuan had given Huang Qian.
"He's about to go berserk. Restrain him and don't let him hurt anyone. Ning Siyu, you can step back," Ye Yuan said to Huang Haoran.
At this moment, Huang Qian's face was twisted, and he was on the verge of losing control.
Huang Qian was also a Guixu realm expert, not weak in strength.
Once he went berserk, his destructive power would be considerable.
Seeing his nephew's pained expression, Huang Haoran looked worried.
"Ye... Ye Grandmaster, is he alright?" Huang Haoran asked anxiously.
At this moment, he had completely forgotten about the task of apprehending the wind.
Ye Yuan said calmly, "He was poisoned by an ancient toxin called Purple Plume Marrow Eater. His divine marrow has completely necrotized, and his divine blood is nearly ruined. If delayed another three to five months, his divine consciousness would be extinguished. The Heavenly Blood Marrow-Exchange Pill can forcibly cleanse his marrow and replace all his divine blood."
Ning Siyu suddenly recalled something, her mouth wide open in shock. "Purple Plume Marrow Eater! He was poisoned by Purple Plume Marrow Eater! I always thought it was just a legend, but it actually exists!"
Ye Yuan was slightly surprised. "You know about Purple Plume Marrow Eater?"
Ning Siyu's eyes showed astonishment. "I read scattered records in an ancient text. It said this poison is different from ordinary ones—it penetrates deep into the marrow, killing all divine blood, and there is no cure! In ancient times, many four-star, five-star, and even higher-level divine alchemists tried to overcome this poison, but none succeeded! Can you... can you really save him?"
This Ning Siyu was truly surprising, having even heard of such a poison.
But her words shocked everyone.
Divine-grade poisons and mortal poisons, though incomparable in potency, share the same principle: they aim to destroy a martial artist's physiology.
Even when a martial artist breaks through to the divine realm, their physiological functions are not much different from mortals.
Divine marrow produces divine blood, and divine blood nourishes divine marrow.
Divine path experts have strong regenerative abilities; even if half their body is destroyed, they can recover.
This requires divine blood to regenerate divine marrow.
But if a poison can penetrate deep into the marrow and kill all divine blood functions, there is no remedy.
Because the divine blood loses its vitality and cannot regenerate.
Such poison is extremely difficult to produce, but once poisoned, it is also extremely hard to cure.
In short, it is incurable!
Purple Plume Marrow Eater is such a poison.
Ye Yuan had only confirmed the poison through Wuchen, but even Wuchen was helpless against it.
Hearing Ning Siyu's words, everyone gasped, realizing how severe Huang Qian's poison was.
A poison that can devour marrow is absolutely terrifying.
Ye Yuan nodded. "If I'm not mistaken, Huang Qian was poisoned in some ancient ruin. He might not have taken it seriously at the time, but after returning, the poison erupted, leading to this."
Huang Haoran shuddered and nodded. "Ye Grandmaster, your deduction is brilliant. Huang Qian became like this after an expedition. But... no one could find the cause. I never expected it to be such a terrible poison. Grandmaster, this... this Heavenly Blood Marrow-Exchange Pill, will it really work?"
Ye Yuan said indifferently, "Don't worry. If it doesn't work, you can take back the fifty million. In fact, the cost of the medicinal herbs alone is no less than twenty million, and I only have this one dose. Charging you fifty million is not expensive."
"Hiss..."
Everyone drew a cold breath. A third-grade divine pill costing at least twenty million in materials alone showed how precious it was.
"Heavenly Blood Marrow-Exchange Pill—it sounds like it will replace all of Huang Qian's divine marrow. Can such a thing... really be done?"
"Not just replacing divine marrow, but also divine blood! Such methods are simply inconceivable!"
"I've never heard of this pill. But judging by Huang Qian's appearance, he seems to be in great pain. Could he die before the marrow is replaced?"
...
Exchanging marrow was unheard of.
This realm was beyond the comprehension of ordinary martial artists.
"Ah!"
Huang Qian suddenly let out a piercing scream, turning into a blur as he charged at Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan seemed to have anticipated this, pointing a finger and sending Huang Qian flying.
"Restrain him and don't let him move. Be careful not to touch his blood—it's poisonous!" Ye Yuan said sternly.
Huang Haoran's expression changed, and his aura erupted violently. He shot out several beams of light, binding Huang Qian.
Ye Yuan flipped his palm, and a pale white flame shot out.
"Boom!"
Huang Qian became a human torch!
Huang Haoran was shocked and shouted, "Ye Grandmaster, what... what are you doing!"
Ning Siyu's eyes flickered, and she said coldly, "Shut up and hold him tight! His blood is highly toxic. If it's not cleansed, none of us here will survive!"
Everyone's face changed, realizing how terrifying the poison was.
In short, touch it and die!
Ye Yuan didn't reply, continuously manipulating the flame to purify the toxic blood forced out of Huang Qian's body.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Yuan withdrew his palm, and the Nether Sandal Sacred Flame receded like a tide.
Huang Haoran's eyes narrowed, staring at Ye Yuan in shock.
There wasn't a single burn mark on Huang Qian's body!
"This... such terrifying flame control!"
"Though it's a second-grade divine flame, its temperature rivals third-grade. Yet... not even a trace of scorching!"
"Today has been an eye-opener. Ye Grandmaster's methods are simply beyond belief!"
"No wonder he dares to hang the sign 'Requests Granted.' I now think it's not an exaggeration at all!"
"But... has he been saved? I feel like Huang Qian has no life left in him."
...
Huang Qian had completely fallen silent, lying motionless on the ground.
But after being burned by the Nether Sandal Sacred Flame for half an hour without a single burn mark, everyone marveled.
However, Huang Qian's aura was now extremely faint, and Huang Haoran didn't know if he had been saved.
Just then, powerful spiritual energy converged from all directions, centering on Huang Qian.
Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief.
This... was he about to break through?
