Chapter 318: Treatment

The letter in his hand was precisely the one sent back by Su Yuqing from the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty.

Su Yuqing first offered congratulations to Qin Ming, lamenting that he had not only broken through to the Jin Dan stage but also become a two-discipline Tier-3 Grandmaster.

He now surpassed the majority of cultivators.

Afterwards, he did not forget to introduce his current situation.

Su Yuqing had also broken through to the Jin Dan stage, and his Daoist arts had already reached the peak of Tier-3 Superior Grandmaster.

Nowadays, he could be described as a highly sought-after figure in the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, enjoying immense popularity.

Even the elders of the Brother Li Huo Palace showed him deference when they met him.

Beyond that, the letter contained the news about the situation in Great Jin that Qin Ming cared about most, as well as intelligence regarding the Brother Li Huo Palace's war.

Su Yuqing detailed everything one by one, telling Qin Ming every detail of what he wished to know.

From the letter, he learned that just two years ago, the battle between the Brother Li Huo Palace and another major enemy had paused due to certain reasons.

The situation in the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty had also returned to a relatively stable state.

"No wonder the Brother Li Huo Palace was able to respond to Profound Stream Valley's plea for aid and dispatch an elder to resolve the ghost disaster at Taihu." Qin Ming finally understood some of the connections.

"It seems the situation in Great Jin has truly stabilized."

Su Yuqing also strongly invited Qin Ming to travel to Great Jin.

Had this been in the past, he certainly would not have gone.

However, now that Qin Ming's strength had improved in all aspects and the situation in the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty had stabilized, it was not impossible to go and take a look.

Originally, his plan had been to wait until the late Jin Dan stage before going to Great Jin to seek opportunities.

He had little interest in getting involved in the messes of the Southern Wild Immortal Realm.

After finishing reading Su Yuqing's reply, Qin Ming roughly had an idea of the situation in his heart.

Afterwards.

Qin Ming put away the letter, flew out of Moon Gazing Island, and headed toward Canghai Xiancheng.

After obtaining the Small Xiao Lingjing, this portable grotto-heaven, Qin Ming had planted his natal spiritual plants and precious Tier-3 spiritual plants inside it.

His three spiritual pets were also cultivating within it.

This was extremely convenient for Qin Ming's future travels, as he no longer needed to worry about his belongings.

Almost all his important possessions were now within the Small Xiao Lingjing.

Even the spiritual plants could be carried on his person.

It was simply incomparable to a storage bag.

As for Moon Gazing Island, he had not neglected it either, still planting quite a few spiritual plants there.

Half an hour later.

Qin Ming transformed into a streak of green rainbow light and arrived at Canghai Xiancheng.

He did not linger, passing directly through the protective great formation and descending toward the Mirror Jing Xue Ge in the inner city.

The moment Qin Ming arrived, the first person to sense him was naturally True Person Canghai.

Nalan Xi had long been waiting there respectfully; she greeted Qin Ming, saying, "Fellow Daoist Qin, you have arrived."

"Mm." Qin Ming returned the courtesy.

Afterwards, accompanied by Nalan Xi, the two of them walked and talked as they headed upstairs.

Along the way, the people of Mirror Jing Xue Ge all stepped aside to make way.

It was the first time two Jin Dan Laozu had visited.

"Fellow Daoist Nalan, I heard you have already examined Fellow Daoist Gu; how is the situation?" Qin Ming asked.

Nalan Xi sighed and said, "Sigh, it does not look promising; in my opinion, Qingzhao will likely have difficulty surviving this tribulation."

"She must have had her origin wounded by a Jin Dan-level ghost creature; a strange poison has struck within her dantian sea of qi, proving difficult to extract and continuously eroding her sea of qi."

"I have never heard of this type of poison before; if one forcibly uses magic power to clear it, it will instead have the opposite effect, accelerating the spread of the toxic qi."

Hearing this, Qin Ming nodded.

A moment later.

On the seventh floor of Mirror Jing Xue Ge, Huangfu Qi and Gu Tongshan, Gu Qingzhao's second uncle, had also arrived.

"Senior Nalan!"

"Qin Qianbei!"

The several individuals bowed respectfully to Qin Ming and Nalan Xi.

"Mm, let us go in and take a look."

Qin Ming nodded, then stepped forward into the room.

There, Gu Qingzhao lay on the bed with both eyes tightly closed.

"Qin Qianbei, please help us see if there is still any hope for Qingzhao?"

"If you have a method, our Mirror Jing Xue Ge is willing to offer any price, and furthermore, should Qin Qianbei have any requests in the future, we will definitely do our utmost to fulfill them."

As the helmsman controlling a major power, Gu Tongshan was currently extremely anxious as he pleaded with Qin Ming.

He was then about to perform a great bow toward him.

Qin Ming immediately waved his hand lightly, lifting Gu Tongshan up. "I share years of friendship with Fellow Daoist Gu; there is no need for this."

Only then did Gu Tongshan sigh, saying, "Sigh! I advised Qingzhao not to take risks long ago, but she was too strong-willed; I never expected something like this would happen."

"I heard that the Gu Gezhu's last trip was to the State of Liang; she must have participated in the suppression of the ghost disaster."

"We trouble you, Qin Qianbei," Huangfu Qi also stepped forward to say.

Qin Ming nodded, then walked to the bedside but did not step forward to take her pulse.

Instead, he stood in place, activated the Yin-Yang Profound Mirror divine ability, and scanned into Gu Qingzhao's body.

Upon inspection, Gu Qingzhao's body was wreathed in lush, vibrant vitality, yet a dark black thread, like a parasite clinging to the bone, was slowly devouring the life force within her.

"Fortunately, it was discovered in time; not too much vitality has been lost."

Qin Ming frowned and spoke.

As soon as these words were uttered, hope reignited among everyone present.

All of them displayed expressions of great joy.

"Truly?!"

"Can the Gu Gezhu still be saved?" Hu Fuqi asked.

"Mm, I will do my best to try."

"However, you all wait outside first."

Qin Ming said indifferently.

Hearing that Gu Qingzhao could still be saved, and that these words came from Qin Ming, a Jin Dan True Person, naturally no one dared disobey.

Immediately, the others withdrew from the room and went downstairs to wait.

Inside the room.

Only Qin Ming and Gu Qingzhao remained, a lone man and a lone woman.

Qin Ming carefully examined her injuries once more; although there were many wounds, large and small, the most severe was the gu poison within her sea of qi and dantian.

As long as this was resolved, the other injuries could be slowly nursed back to health.

Qin Ming gently lifted Gu Qingzhao, then removed her green robe to facilitate treatment, revealing her snow-white fragrant shoulders and jade-like feet.

He was a righteous gentleman; having undergone the tempering and testing of his Dao heart at Qingyang Market City, where he could even refuse free benefits, he naturally would not take advantage of someone in distress.

Gu Qingzhao was also wearing undergarments beneath her robes.

Subsequently, Qin Ming extended his right palm, and a wisp of cyan divine light emerged, radiating a rich aura of time.

It was precisely his Four Seasons Divine Light.

Qin Ming pressed his palm against Gu Qingzhao's lower abdomen, injecting the Four Seasons Divine Light into her sea of qi and dantian.

The moment the Four Seasons Divine Light appeared, those black threads of gu poison, like darkness encountering sunlight, instantly melted and disintegrated.

"It's working!"

Qin Ming immediately felt joy and continued to drive this wisp of divine light to dissolve the gu poison.

In an instant, a wisp of endless cyan radiance flickered between the lower abdomens of Qin Ming and Gu Qingzhao.

His divine ability possessed healing effects; for treating injuries and illnesses, its efficacy was even significantly higher than that of spiritual pills.

One hour later.

The wisp of Four Seasons Divine Light in Qin Ming's hand was exhausted, and the gu poison within Gu Qingzhao's body had been partially cleared.

He unleashed a second wisp of Four Seasons Divine Light and continued to accelerate the treatment.

After breaking through to the mid-stage of the Jin Dan realm, Qin Ming had condensed eighteen wisps of his Four Seasons Divine Light.

Time passed bit by bit.

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.

The crowd waiting downstairs at the Mirror Jing Xue Ge was restless, all awaiting Qin Ming's result.

"Senior Nalan, can True Person Qin surely save Qingzhao back?" Gu Tongshan asked anxiously.

Nalan Xi nodded and said calmly, "Since Daoist Friend Qin said there is a chance, we simply continue waiting."

"If even Daoist Friend Qin, with his cultivation as a third-tier Dandao Sect Grandmaster, cannot manage it, then no one within the Southern Wild Immortal Realm can save her."

Another three days passed.

Qin Ming had nearly drained all eighteen wisps of Four Seasons Divine Light he had condensed over these years.

Only then was the black thread gu poison within Gu Qingzhao's body completely cleared.

Within Gu Qingzhao's sea of qi and dantian, lush green vitality was restored, her origin source received healing and repair, and the stagnant magic power within her body began to circulate normally once more.

Just at this moment.

"Mm~"

The eyelashes on Gu Qingzhao's beautiful eyes twitched slightly; she let out a soft hum from her exquisite nose, seemingly waking up, and her delicate hand grabbed Qin Ming's lapel.
