Chen Zhou initially thought that the entire scarlet blood cell was the source of the poison, but after seeing it constantly devouring the potential true energy, he realized that it was not the real source of the poison.

The true source of the deadly poison was inside the scarlet blood cell, which Chen Zhou could not see at the moment.

"We absolutely cannot attack the Crimson Blood Sphere rashly now. If we attack it rashly and cause the true energy inside to rush out, given the current fragility of Qianlong's dantian, it will be impossible for him to absorb all of that true energy. If we don't control it properly, it could very well cause his dantian to shatter," Chen Zhou said as he thought to himself.

Every word he said was based on evidence; the level of true energy within the scarlet blood cell was definitely beyond what Qianwei could currently withstand.

Think about it, Qianwei's talent must already be at the Heartbeat stage, but because of the existence of that scarlet blood sphere constantly eroding his true energy, he only has the strength of the Foundation Establishment stage. In other words, the scarlet blood sphere contains true energy that can transcend the Foundation Establishment stage, reach the Enlightenment stage, reach the Fusion stage, and then reach the Heartbeat stage! This shows how abundant that true energy is!

"But if you don't attack that crimson blood orb, what else can you do now?" Elder Ren suddenly asked at this moment.

Upon hearing Elder Ren's words, Chen Zhou fell into deep thought. Indeed, as Elder Ren said, if he did not attack the scarlet blood orb, he would have no way to deal with it.

"You can only minimize the losses by attacking that crimson blood sphere, breaking it, and then using other methods to guide the true energy inside out or force the potential energy to absorb it, making the potential energy absorb as much as possible," Elder Ren said.

Chen Zhou nodded and immediately gathered the true energy he had accumulated within his body, launching it at the scarlet blood sphere.

The crimson blood sphere collided with Chen Zhou's dark green true energy. After the collision, Chen Zhou's true energy quickly broke through the membrane on the surface of the crimson blood sphere. This membrane was no match for Chen Zhou's attack and immediately ruptured, allowing Chen Zhou's dark green true energy to flow into the crimson blood sphere.

This influx wasn't important; Chen Zhou immediately sensed the true energy contained within the scarlet blood sphere! That surging true energy immediately turned towards the hole he had breached.

Chen Zhou frowned immediately. He had no choice but to use the golden-white true energy containing primordial truth to control the surging water that was like water bursting through the dam. Only Chen Zhou's true energy containing primordial truth could steadily suppress the surging true energy.

But the power of that true energy was beyond Chen Zhou's imagination.

A series of dragon roars emanated from the true energy.

Chen Zhou's dark green true energy was instantly released, turning into tiny particles within the ocean of true energy.

"The main cultivation technique of the Hidden Dragon Sect is very powerful, so the true energy they cultivate is very domineering! Be careful!" Elder Ren suddenly shouted.

Chen Zhou has already suffered from the effects of that true energy, so it's undoubtedly too late for Elder Ren to say that.

The surging true energy would soon break through the constraints of the scarlet blood cells, reaching the latent dantian first.

Chen Zhou first used his golden-white true energy to shatter the blood lines binding the latent dantian. In this way, the latent dantian could finally be fully opened. Although the opened dantian was not as large as Chen Zhou's, it was not much different.

Now, it is possible to absorb a portion of the true energy that surges forth from the scarlet blood cells like a tide.

"The true energy within that scarlet blood sphere is your own! How much can you absorb?" Time was of the essence, and Chen Zhou asked urgently.

Upon hearing Chen Zhou's question, Qian Wei sprang to attention and quickly replied, "One-quarter!"

The numbers Qianwei gave were actually very accurate, because Qianwei could feel the true energy in the scarlet blood sphere above his dantian, and he could also clearly know the fragility of his dantian and how much true energy he could withstand.

Chen Zhou now knows how much Qianwei can absorb: a quarter of the true qi. That means Chen Zhou needs to guide and absorb the remaining three-quarters himself.

"My lord, the sect holds a monthly event to break that crimson blood sphere. So after breaking it, I have a way to expel the unabsorbable true energy from the body. Please step back, my lord! Don't get hurt by my true energy!" Qian Wei now roughly understood what Chen Zhou was doing, so he immediately said.

Upon hearing Qian Wei's words, Chen Zhou's heart immediately relaxed considerably. This meant that he didn't need to help him channel his true energy, saving him a lot of effort. After careful consideration, Chen Zhou could guess that this step wasn't difficult. Since this deadly poison had plagued the Qianlong Sect for so long, they must have their own solutions, even if they couldn't cure it completely.

As Qianwei said, they would break the scarlet blood sphere every month, and they could absorb a small portion of the true energy inside. This also explains why Qianwei was able to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Chen Zhou immediately channeled his true energy into Qian Wei's body and quickly retreated a few steps. Qian Wei immediately snorted coldly, and circles of true energy slowly rose around his body.

"Roar... Roar..."

Chen Zhou could clearly hear the dragon's roar within the hidden true qi. There was such a powerful cultivation technique that could still produce a dragon's roar even after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage. Chen Zhou suddenly became curious about that technique.

But despite his curiosity, he couldn't cultivate it himself.

The next moment, Qian Wei's aura suddenly surged, and waves of true energy burst out of his body and spread into the air. The true energy that spread into the air was extremely violent, and Chen Zhou also felt a familiar feeling, which was the true energy in the scarlet blood ball in Qian Wei's dantian.
