Chapter 400

"Mm-hmm."

Hearing Hu Tao's words, Collei nodded very obediently.

Immediately after, Lin Mo finished his instructions and left Wanmin Restaurant.

"Eh? Hu Tao, Collei."

Just as Lin Mo had not been gone from Wanmin Restaurant for long, and Hu Tao and Collei were standing up to leave, a sudden exclamation of pleasant surprise rang out.

Paimon and Lumine had arrived, and their eyes lit up when they saw the two.

It was Hu Tao and Collei.

"Yo, it's you two."

Seeing the pleasantly surprised Paimon and Lumine, Hu Tao smiled and said, "What a coincidence, we've met again."

"Paimon, Lumine, hello."

Collei greeted them softly.

"Um, I want to ask, when does the Rite of Descension start?"

Lumine looked at Hu Tao and scratched her head, saying, "Hu Tao, as the Director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, you must know the date of the Rite of Descension, right? I'm a bit impatient to know when it is."

After all, only at the Rite of Descension could she see the Geo Archon, Morax, and ask her question.

"In two more days, it will begin."

Hearing Lumine's words, Hu Tao smiled and said, "Did you not ask around for the date? This is a date that all the people of Liyue know."

"We asked, but those people wouldn't tell us."

Hearing Hu Tao's words, Paimon said with a distressed look, "They all just said 'soon, soon,' and told us outsiders not to be impatient."

Hu Tao: "..."

"It seems the people you asked were all the older generation of Liyue."

While Paimon and Hu Tao were conversing.

On the other side.

After leaving Wanmin Restaurant, Lin Mo had already chosen to return to the Luofu.

When he walked out of his room, Lin Mo checked the time and found it was just past noon; Jingliu had not come yet.

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Mo decisively took out his phone.

Before he could even send a message to Bai Lu, he saw the continuous stream of messages she had sent.

【Bai Lu】: "Hey hey hey, Lin Mo, I've checked everything regarding your physical condition and have reached a definite conclusion."

【Bai Lu】: "You don't need to worry, there's nothing wrong at all. On the contrary, there are benefits; your physique will strengthen rapidly during this period, and that bloodline will reinforce your body."

【Bai Lu】: "But remember to apply those ointments I prepared for you."

Looking at the messages Bai Lu sent, Lin Mo simply replied while heading out the door.

He also took the opportunity to ask if Bai Lu had time right now.

【Lin Mo】: "Do you have time now? I've brought some residue of a god, and I'd like you to see the situation with your own eyes and analyze it."

"Eh?"

Seeing the message Lin Mo sent.

At the Alchemy Commission.

In the medical clinic Bai Lu was in charge of, Bai Lu raised an eyebrow at Lin Mo's message: "You managed to get residue of a god? Not bad, this young lady can take a look and provide a more accurate conclusion."

Although she had learned about it from Lin Mo before, and even prepared some things.

But without seeing it with her own eyes, she couldn't give a truly precise judgment.

Now that she had this opportunity, Bai Lu was quite curious.

Bai Lu replied immediately: "Sure, bring it over for me to take a look. Didn't you say this stuff stimulates the obsessions in one's heart? Making negative emotions erupt, causing people to become mentally unstable, go crazy, and so on."

Just after sending that, Bai Lu thought of something and hurriedly added: "Right, right, help me bring some meat skewers too."

"Ding-dong."

Just as Bai Lu finished sending the message, she received a reply from Lin Mo.

【Lin Mo】: "Okay."

Seeing Lin Mo's reply, Bai Lu narrowed her eyes, waiting happily.

There was food to look forward to; that was great.

If only Lin Mo could come over and bring her food every day.

Under Bai Lu's anticipation, time passed quietly.

After Bai Lu had grown somewhat impatient, Lin Mo's figure finally appeared before her.

"You finally showed up!"

Seeing Lin Mo appear, Bai Lu was delighted and immediately jumped off her chair, pouncing toward him.

"There's an evil aura on your body."

Just as she pounced into Lin Mo's arms, Bai Lu suddenly sensed an evil aura and immediately squirmed uncomfortably, flicking her tail.

"Slow down, slow down."

Watching Bai Lu's movements, Lin Mo handed the meat skewers to her while saying helplessly, "You're a dragon lady, you should be a bit more reserved."

"Why be reserved in front of an acquaintance?"

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Bai Lu waved her hand dismissively, took the fragrant meat skewers, and took a light bite, immediately squinting her eyes in enjoyment: "Sure enough, fresh-off-the-grill meat skewers taste the best."

"Right, the bottle you're holding in your hand must be the so-called residue of a god, right?"

After tasting the meat skewer, Bai Lu looked at the bottle in Lin Mo's hand with great interest: "A very evil aura indeed. Let me see."

Saying this, Bai Lu reached out to take it.

Lin Mo did not stop Bai Lu's actions in the slightest.

"Hmm, it is indeed very crazy, but compared to the aura of the Abominations of Abundance, it's still far off."

After a brief examination, even without opening it, Bai Lu had already made a preliminary judgment: "Although in some aspects it seems even crazier than the Abominations of Abundance, overall, compared to them, it's far off. However, the regenerative substance is quite interesting."

"So, the blue pill you prepared for me before—if given to living beings suffering from the erosion of the god's residue aura, could it also purify them?"

Hearing Bai Lu's words, Lin Mo pondered: "Can it heal people?"

"It can, but it's best not to do so."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Bai Lu shook her head gently: "The pill I prepared for you before was researched using the power of Abundance, primarily targeting the combination of the 'Eleazar' you mentioned and the god's residue. It was meant to thoroughly cure that specific condition."

"If it's just used to heal people eroded by the god's residue, while it could heal and expel/purify this stuff, it might also 'overdose' the person, leading to bad outcomes."

Having said this, Bai Lu looked at Lin Mo with a hesitant expression and hurriedly added: "You really mustn't do that; it will cause an overdose, and an overdose is like a bomb."

Lin Mo: "..."

Hearing Bai Lu's words, Lin Mo's eyelid twitched.

Fortunately, he hadn't fed the little blue pills directly to Jialiang and Jiang Li.

"But that shouldn't be right."

The next second, Lin Mo pondered: "You prepared quite a few of those pills for me, and they can be used to heal the combination of Eleazar and the god's residue, and can even treat Eleazar itself. Wouldn't that also cause an overdose?"

"The dosage is different."

Bai Lu shook her head gently: "To be precise, the Eleazar you mentioned—according to your description, although its danger isn't as great as the god's residue, to cure it at the root, one must excise the core element. And wanting to excise this core element is much harder than dealing with a god's residue."

"You can think of it this way: the potential degree of Eleazar is far beyond that of the god's residue. The god's residue erodes people and belongs to the acquired, but Eleazar is equivalent to the innate. Excising the innate is much harder than the acquired, and I even had to use the power of the Abundance Path."

"If you just want to heal people eroded by the god's residue, that's very simple. I can prepare some more pills or ointments for you, or even a powder to brew. That's equivalent to purification; even without relying on medicine, you could do it by relying on other things."

"But Eleazar is different. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

As she spoke, Bai Lu scratched her head.

Although what she said was a bit complicated, Lin Mo should be able to understand, right?
