Emperor Jianwu’s Divine Sense was constantly observing Qi Tian. There was no one else in the world who cared more about his own body. He asked anxiously, “Qi Tian, is there still hope for me?”

Qi Tian was silent for a while before he replied, “Prince, your condition is not very good, worse than I had expected. However, rest assured that since I have already promised you, I will definitely do my best to help you open up your meridians and cleanse the toxins from your body.”

Emperor Jianwu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Qi Tian started to contemplate how to cleanse the toxins within Emperor Jianwu’s body—it was the most urgent task at hand. Qi Tian did not have a systematic study of the various toxins that might affect a cultivator, but his frequent reading of various ancient texts over the years had accumulated a certain degree of understanding of toxins.

Of course, compared to the vast sea of knowledge about toxins, his understanding was still superficial. Even so, he could ascertain that the toxins within Emperor Jianwu’s body were extremely complex, numerous, and very difficult to cleanse.

What made Qi Tian scratch his head was that many of these toxins did not exist independently. They were intertwined with one another, containing traces of each other, which made them particularly troublesome. Moreover, some toxins had deeply penetrated into Emperor Jianwu’s organs and had merged profoundly with his meridians.

To cleanse these toxins, there was only one method for the current Qi Tian: to sever the affected meridians. There was no other way.

Qi Tian closed his eyes and pondered for a long time. After a long period of consideration, he finally integrated a plan.

Qi Tian was very aware of his own capabilities and had an accurate self-assessment. He did not intend to play the role of savior in Emperor Jianwu’s life. Therefore, he straightforwardly decided to abandon those areas where the toxins and meridians had deeply fused, not planning to deal with them at all.

Qi Tian only intended to deal with the areas that were relatively easy to cleanse. If possible, he would help Emperor Jianwu cleanse some of the more challenging, yet important meridians. As for the other areas, Qi Tian planned to forsake them altogether.

However, before cleansing these toxins, the first task was to cleanse the toxins contained within the medicinal soups that Su Jinghan had given to Emperor Jianwu to drink. These toxins were the key to Emperor Jianwu’s paralysis. Removing them was also key for Qi Tian to initially gain Emperor Jianwu’s trust.

To cleanse these toxins, the first step, of course, was to locate them.

The toxins that could affect a cultivator were certainly not ordinary substances. To some extent, they were also entities rich in Spirit Force, but this Spirit Force was not the usual kind. Instead, it was a kind of Spirit Force that would adversely affect a cultivator’s body, meridians, and even soul. For others, cleansing these toxins would be extremely difficult, but for Qi Tian, it was much easier. This was because he possessed the Heavenly Dao Engine, a treasure with an insatiable desire for substances infused with Spirit Force.

Qi Tian said, “Prince, I will start cleansing the toxins in your body now. Please prepare yourself mentally. It would be best if you could fall into a deep comatose state, so that you could suffer less.”

Emperor Jianwu knew the pain Zhao Ninglu had endured when Qi Tian had stimulated her potential. He said, “I understand that it will be painful. If possible, I would like to fall unconscious. But now, my body is no longer under my control. My Divine Sense can only shrink in the Sea of Consciousness, unable to go anywhere. To make my Divine Sense unconscious is not an easy task, and I cannot do it by myself. Qi Tian, feel free to use whatever means you have. I can bear it.”

Qi Tian shook his head. If it was about completely harvesting Emperor Jianwu’s Divine Sense, Qi Tian would have a way to do it. But to simply make Emperor Jianwu’s Divine Sense fall into unconsciousness, Qi Tian really had no method for that. He did not possess such skills, and Master Ming Ren’s inheritance did not include such techniques.

“Alright, Prince. If you can endure it, you’ll have to bear it yourself. If you can’t, I’m afraid there’s nothing I can do,” Qi Tian said.

Emperor Jianwu said, “Qi Tian, begin cleansing the toxins for me. Whatever happens during the process, I will bear it alone and will not blame you.”

Once again, Qi Tian placed his finger on Emperor Jianwu’s wrist. With a thought, the Transporting Whirlwind burst out from the black hole in his palm, drilling into Emperor Jianwu’s body through the wrist and rapidly entering his meridians.

This process was akin to Transporting Whirlwind making a hole in Emperor Jianwu’s body. The entire process was very fast, and Emperor Jianwu did not feel much pain. In fact, he couldn’t feel pain at all now—his body and Divine Sense were separate. His Divine Sense could not control his body, so naturally, the sense of pain was divided from his Divine Sense.

Once the Transporting Whirlwind entered Emperor Jianwu’s meridians, it began to cleanse them under Qi Tian’s control.

Emperor Jianwu’s meridians were filled with various entities that possessed Spirit Force, from his own True Essence to various toxins. They were interwoven, each containing traces of the other, making the cleansing extremely troublesome.
