Chapter 359: #359 - Cutting out flesh to test drugs

Through the three-colored light, there was actually a fresh piece of meat inside the glass bottle.

The entire piece of meat was covered by an eerie green light.

However, on its exterior, red and white lights were constantly flowing and merging.

Although these two lights were extremely small, the energy fluctuations they emitted were extraordinary.

“This is the aura of the Blazing Apricot and the Octagonal Ice Profound Herb.”

Quan Yi's pupils rapidly contracted, becoming narrow vertical pupils.

Scarlet Dragon scales quietly crept onto Quan Yi's cheeks.

Quan Yi quickly transformed into Scarlet Dragon Eyes.

In the Scarlet Dragon Eyes' vision, he clearly saw that in the process of intertwining red and white, they influenced each other and promoted each other, forming a state of dynamic equilibrium.

This situation was exactly the same as the Ice and Fire Spring inside the valley.

Two completely opposite energies, after colliding with each other, neutralized and emitted a special energy that nourished all things.

Of course, although this energy no longer had the dangers of extreme heat and extreme cold, it was still not something a small piece of meat could withstand.

However, the reason it was still able to maintain its original state was because the green light covering the piece of meat was stubbornly resisting the scouring of the red and white energy.

Quan Yi was also no stranger to this green light; it was precisely the light emitted by Dugu Bo's own poison-attribute soul power.

Seeing this, Quan Yi completely understood whose piece of meat was inside the glass bottle.

“Senior actually cut off his own flesh and blood to experiment with the medicinal properties of the herbs!”

Quan Yi's gaze shifted to Dugu Bo's left arm, where he saw a square-shaped opening that was neither too big nor too small.

Although the blood was blocked by Dugu Bo's own soul power, the cut surface and the internal flesh tissue were clearly visible.

Quan Yi understood Dugu Bo's behavior.

Besides his own flesh, no living being could withstand his own poison.

Therefore, to solve his own poison, he had to use himself as the material.

Having said that, Dugu Bo's decisive act of cutting off his own flesh was worthy of Quan Yi's admiration.

Quan Yi solemnly focused on the movements inside the glass bottle.

He also noticed that the balance of the three energies in the bottle was reaching a certain equilibrium point.

The tenacious poison-attribute soul power attached to the piece of meat was becoming loose under the scouring of the energy.

Before long, Quan Yi could see a turquoise liquid slowly flowing out of the flesh.

When more than ninety percent of the poison-attribute soul power had been filtered out, the red and white energy that had been continuously releasing energy could no longer hold on.

Quan Yi secretly lamented that it was just a little bit away from completely removing the poison.

However, contrary to Quan Yi, Dugu Bo, who was staring intently at the glass bottle, burst into a loud laugh.

“Hahahaha, it's a success, it's a success!”

The hearty laughter echoed throughout the valley, and because Dugu Bo was too engrossed, the loud sound actually caused a slight tremor in the entire mountain.

It was not until this moment that Dugu Bo noticed Quan Yi standing at the entrance of the cave.

He hurriedly walked to Quan Yi and said excitedly, “Kid, you've come at the right time. I've found a way to solve the poison in my body.”

Dugu Bo, who had always maintained the demeanor of an expert in front of Quan Yi, was now like a happy little old man, constantly patting Quan Yi's shoulder.

Quan Yi was somewhat puzzled.

“Senior, the poison doesn't seem to be completely eliminated. What kind of success is this?”

Dugu Bo said with a beaming smile, “You don't understand this. This old man's body has been soaked in poison for decades.

If all the poison in the body is removed, the body will instead experience abnormalities.

Leaving some poison appropriately is necessary for my current body.

The current residual amount is the best ratio I've obtained after countless experiments.”

Hearing this, Quan Yi's gaze turned to the piece of meat in the glass bottle.

It was clearly a piece of cut-off flesh, but he could see that the cells were exhibiting an unusual level of activity.

It felt as if this piece of meat had completely 'come alive'.

“So that's how it is. Then congratulations, Senior, on resolving your own poison.”

Quan Yi sincerely congratulated Dugu Bo.

He saw Dugu Bo's bloodshot pupils and unkempt appearance.

It was conceivable how much effort Dugu Bo had put in to reach this point.

Dugu Bo stared deeply at Quan Yi, and then, with difficulty, he opened his mouth and said, “Thank you.”

After saying this, Dugu Bo's cheeks flushed slightly.

He had forgotten when he had last said these words.

Quan Yi also knew that with Dugu Bo's proud and aloof personality, it was not easy to say these words.

“Haha, Senior, you're making me feel a little embarrassed by saying that.”

Quan Yi smiled shyly.

“Ahem, brat, there are only a handful of people in this world who can be thanked by me, so cherish it.”

Dugu Bo's expression changed abruptly, using a dissatisfied expression to conceal his shyness.

“By the way, what brings you back this time? Are you leaving again soon?”

Quan Yi smiled and said, “I'm back this time to reforged the Supreme Yang Dragon Rider Lance, but after that, I'll also come back often to cultivate.”

In more than half a year, Quan Yi and Huo Wu had wiped out dozens of pirate groups, large and small.

The island development plan was also on track.

It was time for Quan Yi to return to his former arduous cultivation.

Dugu Bo's tone sank slightly as he said, “Your goal is a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, right?

With your cultivation speed, breaking through level seventy will only be a matter of one or two years. Have you started looking for a hundred-thousand-year soul beast?

Do you need me to help you find one?”

“Thank you for your concern, but I've already found one.”

Quan Yi smiled faintly.

“Did you still have time to look for a hundred-thousand-year soul beast in Vast Sea City?” Dugu Bo asked suspiciously.

“It was because I went to Vast Sea City that I was able to find a suitable soul beast so quickly.

You should know that there are countless volcanoes on the vast sea.”

Hearing Quan Yi's explanation, Dugu Bo revealed an expression of understanding.

He had also fallen into a fixed mindset. Whenever he thought of the ocean, he thought of sea soul beasts, and subconsciously, he ruled out the possibility of fire-attribute soul beasts existing.

“Don't worry, after I detoxify, I'll help you out for free.”

Dugu Bo was serious when he said this. At the same time, he also wanted to witness Quan Yi create a miracle up close.

Hundred thousand years, seventh soul ring.

If it were in the past, he might not have dared to even think about it.

However, in Quan Yi, he could envision a definite picture.

As a soul master, he was sometimes jealous of Quan Yi's talent and ability, but on the other hand, he admired Quan Yi's efforts and ambition.

In addition, Quan Yi had also done him the favor of detoxifying him, so he sincerely wanted to help Quan Yi achieve his goal.

However, Quan Yi refused his help at this time.

Quan Yi said, “I want to try facing the hundred-thousand-year soul beast alone.”

“Huh~?” Dugu Bo asked puzzledly, “Kid, I already said I'd help you for free. Don't miss such a good opportunity.

Moreover, a hundred-thousand-year soul beast is bound to produce a soul bone. You don't have to concentrate the resentment of the soul beast on yourself.

I don't understand the meaning of you doing this?”
