Chapter 1187: Chapter 617: Still Alive (2)

The anger in Gu Sheng’s heart grew even fiercer, but he had no time to care about the person outside the door; the intense pain in his body nearly deprived him of his ability to think.

His will began to blur, and his body trembled uncontrollably. Time and again, he struggled to stand up, only to fall heavily to the ground each time.​

"I cannot die... I have survived so many desperate situations on the Holy Road; how can I die here!" Gu Sheng’s heart was filled with unwillingness. He endured the excruciating pain and desperately thought of ways to resolve his predicament.​

Gu Sheng sensed a faint light deep within his body. It was the glow of the Taiji Hunyuan Heavenly Book. He also sensed a fluctuation in the aura of the mysterious woman dormant within the Heavenly Book.

An idea flashed in Gu Sheng’s mind; he remembered having refined the energy of a barren tree using a mental method. Perhaps this mental method could also refine this poison!​

At this life-and-death juncture, Gu Sheng had no other choice. He gritted his teeth and, enduring the pain that almost drowned him, began to operate the Nine Dragon Heaven and Earth Technique.

As he recited the incantation, a powerful devouring force surged from within him, rushing towards the poison.​

Gu Sheng, enduring the pain in his body, focused inwardly on the situation inside his body. He watched closely as the devouring force slowly approached the poison. It all came down to this moment; his fate, and his sister’s safety, hinged upon this bet.

Gu Sheng suddenly felt a pain on his lips as a salty and pungent taste spread in his mouth. The excruciating pain pierced deep into his consciousness, finally granting him a moment of clarity.

His eyes, filled with bloodshot lines, stared directly at the rampant poison inside him. Teeth clenched, he made a determined, do-or-die decision in his heart—to use the Nine Dragon Heaven and Earth Technique to devour this terrifying poison that targeted Body Refiners specifically.​

This poison was unimaginably bizarre, and Gu Sheng lamented in his heart. His once-proud Sacred Body had become a clear disadvantage at this moment. The stronger his physical body, the more potent the poison’s effect became.

His body was already weak beyond belief, yet a momentum capable of shaking heaven and earth roared explosively from within him. The astounding devouring force launched a ferocious assault on the peculiar poison inside him.​

Gu Sheng felt as if every cell in his body was howling and struggling.

If he failed this time, the dreadful poison would swiftly invade his heart. By then, even if he possessed the Sacred Body, it would be too late to save him. Inside him was a chaotic and tragic battle of life and death, silently taking place.​

Fortunately, the devouring power of the Nine Dragon Heaven and Earth Technique naturally restrained this evil poison. In front of this power, the poison trembled uncontrollably.

Gu Sheng forced open his heavy eyelids, excitedly watching the clash between the two, his heart full of hope. Yet his consciousness grew increasingly fuzzy, and his vision dimmed as he passed out.​

It was uncertain how much time had passed as Gu Sheng’s consciousness seemed to drift through a fog of chaos,

hearing faintly the sound of rain pattering down. The cool raindrops lightly beat against his body, bringing a long-missed sense of coolness.

A familiar voice tinged with a sob entered his ears: "Brother, wake up, don’t scare me..." It was his sister Gu Yu calling him!​

Struggling, Gu Sheng opened his heavy eyelids, and the first thing he saw was his sister’s face. Gu Yu clung to him tightly, crying uncontrollably.

Gu Sheng raised a hand, gently touching his sister’s face, feeling the real, tangible sensation, his heart filled with post-crisis relief. He was still alive.​

Despite his body’s weakness, Gu Sheng looked inwardly at his condition, seeing that his internal organs had been devastated by the poison, with evident damage. Seeing his sister safe and sound finally allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief.

He opened his mouth slightly, asking hoarsely, "Yu’er, do you remember how we got poisoned?"​

Gu Yu, sobbing, said, "Brother, I felt terribly uncomfortable while cultivating, then a sharp pain hit, and I passed out. When I woke up, I saw you lying here, unconscious."​

Gu Sheng’s heart sank; he knew the poison was aimed at him. The poisoner must have been extremely cautious, leaving no evidence.

Looking at his sister, he softly said, "Yu’er, go outside and protect me; I need to cultivate and recover."​

Gu Yu quickly wiped her tears, nodded, and turned to leave the room.

Gu Sheng, enduring the discomfort, focused on operating his mental method. As the mental method circulated, a warm current flowed through him, visibly speeding his recovery.​

While Gu Sheng was immersed in cultivation, he sensed an unwelcome presence approaching Tianshan Residence.
