The three compared the ingredients and found that more than thirty kinds of medicinal herbs could be identified. However, the so-called antidote was not an antidote at all, but a poison.

If Ye Xi were to give Chi Yi a small amount of the antidote and observe the changes in his body, it would provide energy to the gray mist within Chi Yi's meridians, temporarily calming it down and giving him the illusion of detoxification. In reality, the poison was getting deeper and deeper until it became uncontrollable.

"According to Junior Sister, these gray mists seem to have a life force, wandering through the meridians and even slowly corroding the dantian."

The person who poisoned them has a truly vicious mind. No wonder they didn't seal the true essence within Chi Yi and the others; it was completely unnecessary. Chi Yi and the others were doomed to die.

Even if they manage to escape, what then? Zu Zihong's fate is still death.

Those gray mists probably can't be completely removed by medicine alone. Ye Xiruo thought of the strange fire, the strange fire of heaven and earth, which is extremely strong and yang, and is the nemesis of all poisons, as well as demonic energy and Gu worms.

"Senior Brother, I've handed over the poison on Chi Yi. You all continue your research on Shi Chixing on the Bai family patriarch."

They hadn't expected to encounter such a troublesome poison, but as alchemists, facing such a rare poison was a challenge for them, and there was absolutely no reason for them to back down.

Ye Xiruo led Chiyi to the next room, where Xiu Qiyu stood guard outside the door.

“Red Wing, I suspect that the poison you have been afflicted with is not just poison, but also a kind of Gu worm, or rather, it possesses the nature of a Gu worm. I currently have no way to concoct an antidote that can completely cure you, but I have thought of a way to remove the poison from your body, but it requires your cooperation. You must trust me, I will not harm you. You must control your true qi and not reject the spiritual energy entering your meridians.”

"Don't worry, Master Ye. Over the past three years, seeing so many people dying suddenly in the mine, I actually guessed that this poison might be incurable, or at least very difficult to cure. We had no chance of gaining freedom. Now that we've escaped and become free, I'm already very satisfied."

"Don't worry, I will do my best."

"I believe you, Night Alchemist."

“I also believe that you will get better. We agreed to open Zuixianju together and make a lot of spirit crystals. Even if it means hiring someone to kill, we will make sure they never have a peaceful day again.”

"Night Alchemist, I'm ready. You may begin."

Ye Xiruo released her spiritual power, and at the same time, a wisp of five-colored transparent flame appeared at her fingertips. The flame gradually stretched into a thin thread, which was wrapped by her spiritual power and entered Chi Yi's body.

"Relax." Ye Xiruo's words contained a touch of mental power, carrying a hint of mental suggestion.

However, the moment her mental energy entered, Ye Xiruo was still attacked by Chi Yi's instinct, and her face turned pale. But she did not stop, because stopping now would truly mean all her previous efforts were in vain.

This is a hurdle that must be overcome. A cultivator's meridians, dantian, and spiritual sea are the most important places for a cultivator, possessing inherent protective abilities that instinctively resist any intruders.

"Relax."

Ye Xiruo's spiritual power finally entered Chi Yi's meridians.

The strange fire used by Ye Xiruo was the Ice Heart Flame. When the gray mist encountered the Ice Heart Flame, it was like snow meeting the sun, quickly swallowed up without leaving a trace.

It worked! If done correctly, it's not impossible to remove all the poison at once.

Under Ye Xiruo's control, the Ice Heart Flame transformed into an invisible network, rampaging through the veins of the Crimson Wings. Countless gray mists crumbled and were swallowed up before they could even react.

"Circulate your cultivation technique without worrying about the consumption of your true energy."

The poison in the meridians was a minor issue; the real problem was the poison in the dantian. As Chi Yi continued to circulate his cultivation technique, more gray mist lunged at Ye Xiruo, trying to devour the Ice Heart Flame as well.

Ye Xiruo's lips curled into a cold smile. These poisons were truly domineering, treating Chi Yi as its spoils of war. Unfortunately for Chi Yi, it had encountered Ye Xiruo and Bing Xinyan.

Ice Heart Flame still resembled fine strands of hair, but it had absorbed all the gray mist.

And so, Chi Yi kept wishing you to change your cultivation method, and the Ice Heart Flame devoured it endlessly. Ye Xiruo sensed that half of the poison in Chi Yi's body should have been absorbed. The remaining half was sitting in the dantian, and it was no longer as fierce and reckless as before, but rather moved with a bit of caution.

Seemingly testing the power of the Ice Heart Flame, these gray mists, though their nature is unknown, are indeed alive and possess self-awareness.

Ye Xiruo quickly enveloped the Ice Heart Flame with her mental power: "Continue to circulate the cultivation technique."

This time, Ye Xi did not act rashly, but remained still, waiting for the gray mist to fill Chi Yi's meridians again before withdrawing his spiritual power. The Ice Heart Flame immediately swept across the area, invincible, and quickly devoured all the gray mist, even moving closer to his dantian.

This sense of threat quickly caused the large amount of gray mist in his dantian to dissipate, and a look of pain appeared on Chi Yi's face.

Ye Xiruo felt that she shouldn't be so passive. These gray mists seemed to have a life force. If she couldn't completely drive them away, all her hard work today would have been for nothing.

Did you really think that hiding in your dantian would make you untouchable? What a joke! With a cold laugh, Shui Qingqing's right hand produced several slender silver needles, which quickly pierced into the acupoints near Chi Yi's dantian, hitting the mark precisely and just barely.

Then, what did she do? The Ice Heart Flame in her hand flickered again, turning into fine strands of hair that wrapped around the silver needles. The Ice Heart Flame followed the silver needles and subtly sealed Chi Yi's dantian.

Of course, if Ye Xi hadn't overlooked the fact that these gray mists had become sentient, she would have left them a small exit.

What do you call this now? Trapping a turtle in a jar. You should just hide well inside your dantian. The aura of the Ice Heart Flame will drive you crazy.

If it still doesn't come out in the end, Ye Xiruo doesn't plan to wait any longer. Instead, she uses the Ice Heart Flame on the silver needle to take the initiative and destroy it.

If the gray mist couldn't withstand the aura of the Ice Heart Flame and tried to break through, the Ice Heart Flame and the Azure Lotus Heaven had formed a team outside, waiting for it to come out, ensuring it would have nowhere to hide.

As Ye Xi increased the output of the Ice Heart Flame, the pain on Chi Yi's face became even more pronounced.
