Chapter 788: Metastasis of the Innate Fetal Poison
Translator: StarveCleric Editor: Millman97
Even 7-star physicians would have been helpless in such a situation, but Zhang Xuan was different .
Possessing the capability of a soul oracle, if it were to come down to it, he could even draw the other party's soul out to nourish it directly before placing it back into her body .
However, given Wei Ruyan's current feeble body, if he were to draw her soul out, there was a chance that she might succumb to her frailty and die . Thus, that could only serve as his final resort .
"Medicinal herb? What medicinal herb do you need?" Wei Changfeng asked anxiously . "Give me the name, and I'll definitely find it no matter how much it takes!"
"I don't have a specific name to give you, but the medicinal herb must at least reach Saint tier and possess the ability to nurture souls . Furthermore, the herb must be alive… On top of that, I will need a Grand Intermittence Pill!" Zhang Xuan said .
"A living Saint herb? And a Grand Intermittence Pill, the g-grade-7 pill?" Wei Changfeng's face paled .
If it had been anything else, given his strength as a Saint realm expert and his influence as the head of the Spirit Emporium, it wouldn't have been too difficult for him to find them as long as he were to devote his resources into it . But those two items… that would be difficult .
This was no longer a problem of whether he had the connections to obtain them or not, but that it was very possible that these items might not even exist in the entire Hongyuan City!
If it was on some other occasion, he might still have been able to head to a higher tier empire to search for those items . However, Wei Ruyan's current condition didn't permit him the luxury of time!
"Only a living Saint herb possesses sufficient vitality to nurture her feeble soul . As for the Grand Intermittent Pill, I believe that you should have heard of it as well . As long as one hasn't hurt one's foundation, one will be able to recover from even the most severe of injuries easily by consuming this pill, and this includes severed limbs as well! This pill is also extremely effective in tackling physical frailty," Zhang Xuan explained .
The Grand Intermittent Pill harnessed the ability to stimulate the vitality within a human body, allowing even one's severed limbs to regrow .
Considering that Wei Ruyan's bodily functions had nearly come to a complete halt, only a pill of such a level could alleviate her condition .
Any pill weaker than that was likely to be completely ineffective on her .
"I understand… It might still be able to find a living Saint herb in Hongyuan City, but where am I to search for a grade-7 pill?" Wei Changfeng clenched his fists tightly in distress .
As rare as Saint herbs were, there were still some who cultivated them in Hongyuan City . As long as one could offer them a satisfying price, it wasn't too difficult to obtain it .
But… it was nearly impossible to find a grade-7 pill here .
"Hmm . " Zhang Xuan also frowned .
Even the most capable of apothecaries in Hongyuan City were at 6-star pinnacle, and it was impossible for them to forge grade-7 pills . Not to mention, the Grand Intermittent Pill was one of the more advanced pills amongst grade-7 pills .
"For the time being, let me see if I can find some other way to strengthen her body . " Shaking his head, Zhang Xuan turned his sight back to Wei Ruyan .
At this moment, Zhang Xuan was considering trying the Heaven's Path zhenqi to nourish Wei Ruyan's body .
The Heaven's Path zhenqi possessed the ability to allow one to recover from one's injuries swiftly . While Zhang Xuan had never tried to see if it was capable of stimulating the regrowth of severed limbs, there was no doubt regarding its ability to heal most wounds .
If it could be used as a substitution for the Grand Intermittence Pill, they could be spared from the effort of having to find a grade-7 pill .
Thus, placing his wrist on Wei Ruyan's wrist, he sent a surge of Heaven's Path zhenqi into her body .
Her meridians are completely blocked?
Zhang Xuan had thought that he would be able to send his Heaven's Path zhenqi throughout Wei Ruyan's body to trigger her vitality, but who could have known that he would meet with a blockade shortly after entry?
To his astonishment, the meridians in her body were like sealed tunnels, unconnected to one another .
Helpless, Zhang Xuan retracted his finger .
This is probably a result of the attack from the Saint realm expert she suffered back when she was still a fetus . As a self-protective mechanism, her body automatically sealed her meridians to limit the damage . Furthermore, as she has been in this condition for too long, it would be dangerous to attempt to force her meridians open, especially while she's unconscious…
Zhang Xuan swiftly got a rough grasp regarding the situation .
Maybe I should try this!
Despite his initial failure, Zhang Xuan didn't despair . He flicked his wrist and took out a box of silver needles .
Hu!
With a light shake of his hand, the silver needles fell on the various acupoints throughout Wei Ruyan's body, and using them as a medium, Zhang Xuan sent surges of his Heaven's Path zhenqi into her body .
"Good, it worked!"
As the Heaven's Path zhenqi seeped into Wei Ruyan's body, her ghastly pale face finally began to regain a red glow .
"It worked…" Wei Changfeng's body trembled in agitation .
Seeing that it was effective, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief . He continued to infuse his zhenqi into the other party's body through the silver needles .
However, just as Zhang Xuan was about to circulate his Heaven's Path zhenqi throughout Wei Ruyan's body to nourish it, he suddenly noticed something, and his eyebrows shot up in alarm .
"No, something's wrong!"
He immediately rushed to retract the silver needles, but before he could do so, the face of the young lady before him suddenly turned pale once more, and her body abruptly convulsed intensely .
"Damn it!"
Zhang Xuan swiftly retracted all of the silver needles from Wei Ruyan's body as fast as he could .
However, it was already too late . As if struck by lethal poison, white foam seeped out from the edges of the young lady's mouth, and after a slight moment of trembling, her body fell deadly still .
"D-dead?" Wei Changfeng quickly rushed forward to check the condition of his daughter, and upon realizing that there was no pulse, his eyes immediately turned crimson in fury .
He had thought that the young master might be able to save his daughter, and clutching this final straw of hope, he had rushed over to seek his help . Who could have known that the latter would actually treat his daughter to her death!
In that instant, the final spark of hope in his heart faded, and madness overtook his rationality .
"This…" Zhang Xuan was also in a frenzy by the situation before him .
The Heaven's Path zhenqi had never failed him before . Why would something crop up this time around, causing Wei Ruyan to lose her life?
"It must be the effects of her Innate Poison Body…" Zhang Xuan's face turned livid as realization struck him .
The other party's Innate Poison Body seemed to have clashed with his Heaven's Path zhenqi, resulting in a backlash .
Considering the incredibly feeble state that Wei Ruyan was already in, how could she possibly withstand the impact of the backlash? Due to the heavy toll on her body, she breathed her last .
