Chapter 78: Discussing Dugu Yan's Treatment
Yu Tianlin took the bundle of immortal herb information from Yang Wudi and began to carefully read through it.
He had to admit, the Breaking Clan's collection was impressive.
In Yu Tianlin's memory, every immortal herb that appeared in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was recorded here, and even several herbs that never appeared in the original story were included as well.
As he flipped through the documents, Yu Tianlin took notes on the precautions and usage methods for each immortal herb. Only after a long while did he finally reach the last page.
Seeing that Yu Tianlin had finished, Yang Wudi leaned forward and asked,
"So, were the rare medicinal herbs your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan discovered included in this information?"
"They were."
Yu Tianlin nodded, pulling 3 pages out from the stack.
"Besides the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid, these are the other 3."
"The Fiery Apricot Blossom and the Eight-Cornered Mysterious Ice Grass, both excellent things."
Yang Wudi's eyes brightened as he read the first 2 pages. When he flipped to the last one, he could not help but exclaim,
"There's even the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item recorded here!"
That was exactly what Yu Tianlin had prepared for him: Fiery Apricot Blossom, Eight-Cornered Mysterious Ice Grass, Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid, and the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item.
According to the agreement, Yang Wudi could choose 1 of the 4.
Of course, "4" was only in theory. With Yu Tianlin's arrangement, Yang Wudi was effectively choosing between 2.
The Fiery Apricot Blossom and the Eight-Cornered Mysterious Ice Grass had to be taken together. On their own, each one was a deadly poison. Since Yang Wudi could only choose a single plant, those 2 were automatically ruled out.
That left the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid and the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item.
The main function of the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid was to strengthen the foundation and purge impurities. Put simply, consuming it would improve a Spirit Master's aptitude and accelerate cultivation.
However, Yang Wudi was already old. Even if his aptitude improved, the benefits would be limited. It was too late for that sort of boost, and Yu Tianlin knew that Yang Wudi was so obsessed with medicinal research that he often ignored his own cultivation. The likelihood of him choosing the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid was very low.
As for the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item, that one struck directly at Yang Wudi's greatest need.
Yang Wudi lived for medicine, but many medicines were poisonous. Whenever he refined drugs or experimented with new formulations, he always had to worry about being poisoned and could not let himself go all out.
The Fragrant Silk Immortal Item had no other use, but its ability to ward off poison was unparalleled. If Yang Wudi obtained it, he could play with all kinds of toxins as recklessly as he pleased without worrying about harming himself.
For Yu Tianlin, the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item was of limited use. For Yang Wudi, it surpassed all the other immortal herbs.
As expected, Yang Wudi's choice matched Yu Tianlin's prediction perfectly.
Yang Wudi stared fixedly at Yu Tianlin, barely holding back his excitement.
"I want the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item. How about it?"
Yu Tianlin smiled.
"Since Senior likes it, we'll do it that way."
"Hahaha, the Fragrant Silk Immortal Herb!"
Getting a clear answer, Yang Wudi almost leapt out of his chair, laughing as he paced back and forth.
"I've searched all my life and never thought I'd get it like this. Wonderful, truly wonderful!"
After a long burst of joy, Yang Wudi finally calmed himself and asked,
"Since it's decided, when can I receive the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item?"
That was the troublesome part.
I don't even have it in hand yet. How am I supposed to give it to you now?
"The Fragrant Silk Immortal Herb hasn't been harvested yet," Yu Tianlin said smoothly. "And our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is in the Heaven Dou Empire, quite far from here. It will take some time before it can be delivered."
Without giving Yang Wudi a chance to press further, he smoothly shifted the topic.
"There is another matter I'd like to ask Senior Yang to help with."
Yang Wudi was still in an excellent mood. He waved casually.
"What is it?"
Yu Tianlin did not beat around the bush.
"It's like this. I have a friend who has been poisoned. Senior Yang, could you…"
Before he could finish, Yang Wudi suddenly flashed to his side, grabbed Yu Tianlin's wrist, and checked his pulse with a serious expression.
"That's odd. You're not poisoned."
"I said it was a friend who was poisoned."
Yu Tianlin felt both amused and helpless.
"It wasn't me, and I didn't make up a 'friend' just to trick you."
"Ahem, I see."
Yang Wudi coughed lightly, slightly embarrassed.
"Tell me in detail about your friend's condition."
Yu Tianlin continued,
"My friend is a woman in her early 30s. Her cultivation path is poison, so she concentrated all her toxins into her Martial Soul. However, her Martial Soul is a snake-type beast Martial Soul. As a result, the poison has fused with her body and become inseparable from it. While she enjoys the destructive strength brought by the venom, her body is also constantly corroded by it."
"A poison-type person, interesting."
Yang Wudi became even more interested and pressed,
"To what extent has the poison corroded her?"
"The corrosion must be severe," Yu Tianlin recalled. "Her hair has turned purple, and her eyes are green."
"If it's that serious, then it is somewhat troublesome."
Yang Wudi frowned, but his tone still carried confidence.
"Troublesome, but not impossible to treat."
"However, my most straightforward method would be to completely remove the toxins from her body. Doing that would neutralize all her Spirit Power and turn her into an ordinary person."
Yu Tianlin hurriedly responded,
"That's not necessary, Senior Yang. We can prepare a Spirit Bone for her and guide all the toxins in her body into that Spirit Bone. In future cultivation, we can keep channeling new toxins into it as well. That way there will be no hidden danger."
"Forcing the toxins into a Spirit Bone, that is indeed a clever idea."
Yang Wudi's eyes lit up with appreciation.
"But Spirit Bones are extremely precious. It won't be easy to find one that suits her."
It had to be said, Yang Wudi's words were not an exaggeration.
He himself was already a Spirit Douluo, yet he did not possess a single Spirit Bone. That alone showed how rare and valuable they were.
"There will be no problem with the Spirit Bone," Yu Tianlin replied softly.
"I was overthinking it. For your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, obtaining a Spirit Bone probably isn't that difficult," Yang Wudi said, shaking his head. "Still, while the idea is sound, the actual process of driving the poison out won't be as simple as it sounds."
"Your friend is deeply fused with her poison. If we try to force it out recklessly, the backlash could easily kill her."
"This is exactly what I wish to ask of Senior Yang," Yu Tianlin said quickly. "Could Senior help refine some medicine to assist in guiding and expelling the poison? With your skills, Senior, I believe it should not be a problem."
"Alright, I agree."
Given the temptation of the Fragrant Silk Immortal Herb, this detoxification was nothing more than a small favor in Yang Wudi's eyes. He accepted without hesitation.
"But I still need to know exactly what kind of poison your friend carries."
"Jade Phosphor Serpent," Yu Tianlin answered without the slightest pause.
