Chapter 337: The Method of Healing
"Senior Mo, can you cure this?" Chen Fan asked with difficulty.
At this moment, everyone's gaze fell upon Mo Yichen.
Mo Yichen let out a long sigh and said, "This old man is powerless!"
"This..." For a moment, everyone's hearts sank to the bottom.
Especially Chen Fan; he felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck his mind.
He had gone through such hardship to find Mo Yichen, only for it to be all in vain.
Just as Chen Fan was in despair, Mo Yichen added, "I do know someone; he might be able to remove the Vow Poison."
"Who is this person?" Luo Jingyun asked curiously.
"This person is my elder brother, named Mo Wuya. He specializes in the way of the Soul and may have a solution."
Everyone immediately revealed a look of hope.
However, Chen Fan's face was full of bitterness: "It's no use. Today is the last day before the Vow Poison takes effect; it is already too late to find Senior Mo Wuya."
Seeing Chen Fan so desperate, Mo Yichen suddenly laughed.
"Kid Chen, since you have found me, how could I just watch you die?"
"What does Senior mean?" Chen Fan was puzzled.
"Although I cannot cure this poison, I do have a method to delay its onset."
"What method does Senior have?" Chen Fan was immediately overjoyed.
Mo Yichen said, "This method is very simple. When one's cultivation advances, the Soul is cleansed, and the Vow Poison will also be temporarily forced back. As long as you two can raise your cultivation by a small realm, you can delay the poison's onset for ten days or half a month."
Hearing this, Chen Fan could not help but smile bitterly: "Senior Mo, the two of us are deeply poisoned, and our Souls are almost frozen; it is simply impossible to break through."
Mo Yichen laughed: "There is a type of spirit herb in this world called the Blazing Sun Flower. If an ordinary person absorbs it, their Soul will be burned to death, but your current Soul state can withstand it! By utilizing the burning effect of this flower, you can neutralize the Vow Poison for a short time."
"However, this neutralization effect only lasts for one day! Once the energy of the Blazing Sun Flower is exhausted, the Vow Poison will attack with even more ferocious intensity!"
"So I must break through within one day, is that right?" Chen Fan asked in return.
"Correct!" Mo Yichen nodded heavily.
Chen Fan hurriedly said respectfully: "Senior Mo, where can I find this Blazing Sun Flower?"
Mo Yichen looked toward Luo Jingyun, who was standing to the side.
"The Blazing Sun Flower is not a rare item. Jingyun, arrange for people to search the nearby mountains; you should be able to find it!"
Although Luo Jingyun had advanced to a Martial Saint, he did not put on any airs in front of Mo Yichen and hurriedly ordered people to go.
By five o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Fan could no longer hold on and fell into a coma.
It was not until nightfall that Luo Jingyun finally brought back two bright red flowers.
"This is it. Have someone crush them, dissolve them in Water, and have them drink it!" Mo Yichen hurriedly instructed.
As the liquid entered their mouths, a warm current rushed into Chen Fan's Sea of Consciousness.
His previously rigid Soul began to slowly regain vitality under the nourishment of this warm current.
After more than ten minutes, Chen Fan finally woke up. He slowly opened his eyes and felt his entire body was incredibly light.
"It seems the Blazing Sun Flower has taken effect." Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief.
Not long after, Diana also woke up slowly.
She discovered that the chill in her body had disappeared and was immediately delighted: "Chen Fan, has our Vow Poison been cured?"
"Not yet," Chen Fan shook his head slightly and said, "It has only forced back the chill for a short time..."
Chen Fan explained the need to advance his cultivation to her.
Upon hearing there was hope, Diana was not discouraged.
"Chen Fan, I have been stuck at the Sixth-Order Peak for a long time. Now that I have the Soul Spirit Fruit, I can break through at any time, but you... what will you do?"
Diana looked at Chen Fan with some worry.
Chen Fan smiled calmly. Although he had not broken through to the Fifth Stage long ago, the successive battles had already made his foundation incredibly solid, so it would not be difficult to make another breakthrough.
He looked at Luo Jingyun to the side and asked: "Senior Luo, I wonder where there are high-level Thunder-type Strange Beasts, preferably Seventh Stage Late Phase, or where natural Thunder often strikes."
Luo Jingyun did not know why Chen Fan was asking this, but he still said: "There are very few high-level Strange Beasts near Hope City. Unless facing a Beast Tide attacking the city, it is very difficult to find Seventh Order or higher Thunder-type Strange Beasts."
Chen Fan frowned slightly, but he could understand; a city built within an Other-dimensional Space naturally had to avoid areas where Strange Beasts gathered.
Luo Jingyun continued: "However, about 500 kilometers north of Hope City, there is a natural thunder field called Red Thunder Mountain. That mountain is often covered in red Thunder; I wonder if that can meet your needs?"
Chen Fan's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurriedly said: "Senior Luo, can you send someone to take me there?"
Luo Jingyun laughed: "No need to call me Senior. You are friends with Yao'er, just call me Uncle Luo. Besides, I will take you there myself to prevent any accidents."
"Many thanks, Uncle Luo!" Chen Fan did not stand on ceremony and hurriedly agreed.
As a Martial Saint, Luo Jingyun was extremely fast, and before long, they approached Red Thunder Mountain.
At this time, it was already 8 o'clock in the evening, and the sky had turned completely dark.
But that Red Thunder Mountain was like a bright lamp in the dark night, exceptionally dazzling.
The entire mountain was about a thousand meters high, completely wrapped in crimson Thunder, illuminating the entire night in a deep red.
The two stopped at the foot of the mountain.
Luo Jingyun warned: "Chen Fan, the Thunder here is terrifying. Even ordinary 8th Rank Grandmasters dare not set foot on this mountain; you must be very careful."
"Rest assured, Uncle Luo, you can just wait for me here."
After saying this, Chen Fan began to climb the mountain.
The moment his soles touched the mountain, a powerful force of Thunder passed through his feet into his body, subsequently rampaging and impacting his flesh, muscles, and bones without restraint.
Hiss! Chen Fan could not help but gasp: "What tyrannical Thunder."
Chen Fan did not use the power of his Supreme Thunder-Devouring Dao Body to suppress this crimson Thunder, but instead let his body truly feel every wisp of Thunder impacting his body.
Only by doing this could he grasp the rules contained within it.
Chen Fan landed one foot on the mountain, his entire body seemingly frozen in place, motionless, allowing the crimson Thunder to surge into his body.
Finally, after ten minutes, he began to take his second step, and after another five minutes, Chen Fan took his third step.
Gradually, his movements became faster and faster; he left a footprint with every step, like a climber conquering a high peak.
With each step he took, the crimson Thunder swirling around his body grew increasingly dense, and his aura became ever more formidable.
Luo Jingyun stood at the foot of the mountain, his gaze fixed on Chen Fan the entire time; a flash of astonishment crossed his eyes, for he knew very well the terror of the crimson Thunder, as even an ordinary Eighth-Rank Grandmaster would not dare to set foot on this mountain at will.
Even though Chen Fan was an Ability User with a Thunder-type Ability and his body's immunity to lightning far exceeded that of an ordinary person, this was still hell-level difficulty for an Ability User at the Fifth Rank Initial Stage.
Yet Chen Fan remained expressionless throughout, as if he were born immune to pain.
"This kid is definitely no ordinary person! Such perseverance is truly terrifying," Luo Jingyun could not help but think to himself.
At this moment, Chen Fan was already standing atop the mountain peak.
At this instant, his essence, Qi, and spirit had reached their peak through the ascent of this mountain.
He simply sat cross-legged, allowing the crimson Thunder to penetrate his limbs and bones through his Spinal Great Dragon. With a shift of his mind, the Supreme Thunder-Devouring Dao Body began to circulate, a vortex formed at the center of his brow, and the next instant, the surrounding crimson Thunder surged in madly!
