Chapter 418: Chapter 418: Lotus Ring

Tang Yue’er wanted to stop him, but she didn’t know how.

Qin Chuan had been afflicted by the Heart Devouring Gu, and if he couldn’t fully resolve it, he would only be able to exert ten percent of his cultivation power.

So, Tang Yue’er really felt at a loss.

"Big Brother Qin!"

Tang Yue’er tightly clenched her fists, her face full of worry, praying silently in her heart, hoping that Qin Chuan would successfully overcome this ordeal.

Qin Chuan held a thirty-centimeter-long silver needle in his right hand, ready to plunge it into his heart at any moment.

He could clearly feel the Heart Devouring Gu frantically gnawing at his heart, devouring the blood there, an extremely unbearable sensation.

"Pfft!"

Suddenly, he fiercely plunged the silver needle into his heart.

"Ah..."

Qin Chuan couldn’t help but let out a painful scream as the silver needle not only hit the Heart Devouring Gu but also pierced through his heart.

"Big Brother Qin!"

Tang Yue’er’s expression changed dramatically, she shouted and rushed up to support Qin Chuan.

"Big Brother Qin, don’t scare me, how are you? Please, say something!"

"It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t taken it upon myself to try and wake you with the Ye Family’s jade bottle, how would you have been afflicted by the Heart Devouring Gu?"

"Big Brother Qin, please don’t be hurt!"

Tang Yue’er cried as she spoke, genuinely feeling very guilty.

"Stop crying, I’ve already killed the Heart Devouring Gu."

Just then, Qin Chuan suddenly spoke, his face a sickly pale.

Tang Yue’er immediately stopped crying and looked at Qin Chuan with surprise, saying, "Big Brother Qin, did you really hit the Heart Devouring Gu?"

Qin Chuan nodded, while he drew a short dagger from his waist and began to take off his shirt.

"Although the Heart Devouring Gu is dead, it’s still attached to my heart. I must remove the Heart Devouring Gu from my heart to truly resolve this trouble," Qin Chuan explained.

Before Tang Yue’er could react, she watched as Qin Chuan made a shocking cut in the area of his heart with the dagger.

Then, she saw Qin Chuan’s other hand move as fast as lightning to insert several silver needles into the wound, immediately stopping the bleeding.

Tang Yue’er stared wide-eyed, holding her breath.

Her face showed complete disbelief and shock; only at that moment did she realize what Qin Chuan meant by removing the Heart Devouring Gu from his heart.

Suddenly, Qin Chuan extended two fingers, reaching into the slit made by the dagger at his heart area.

Qin Chuan’s veins bulged, his face twisted in pain, and Tang Yue’er tightly covered her mouth with her hand, fearful that any sound she made might disturb Qin Chuan as he performed "surgery" on himself.

"Found it!"

Qin Chuan suddenly said through gritted teeth; a second later, his fingers retracted from the wound, pinching a bug the size of a thumb.

Clearly, this bug was the Heart Devouring Gu.

In the Five Poisons Gu Formation, Miao Dahai, who was suffering from the torment of the five poisons, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his complexion turning extremely pale.

"How is this possible? How could this be?"

He looked at Qin Chuan outside the formation, his face filled with disbelief and despair.

It wasn’t that there was no solution to the Heart Devouring Gu, but it was the first time he had seen someone resolve the Heart Devouring Gu in such a brutal manner as Qin Chuan had.

He had been desperately holding on within the Five Poisons Gu Formation, hoping that once the Heart Devouring Gu consumed Qin Chuan’s heart-flesh, the power of the formation would be greatly reduced, possibly allowing him a chance at freedom.

But having witnessed how Qin Chuan dealt with the Heart Devouring Gu, he was utterly hopeless.

"Ah..."

After another wave of frenzied attacks by the Five Poisons Gu Worms, he let out a shrill scream of agony and writhed in pain on the ground.

By this time, Qin Chuan had already treated his own wounds.

Tang Yue’er asked worriedly, "Big Brother Qin, have you recovered your cultivation level?"

This was her main concern, as Qin Chuan was about to meet Liu Kuangren in battle, and now he had just removed the Heart Devouring Gu from his heart with his bare hands. If he couldn’t recover his cultivation level, how could he fight?

Qin Chuan shook his head, "If I’m not mistaken, the effect of the Heart Devouring Gu on the victim is persistent. Although I have extracted the Heart Devouring Gu, it has already devoured some of the flesh around my heart, causing my cultivation to drop sharply."

"So, I need to wait until the flesh around my heart is fully healed to fully recover."

"As of now, I have only recovered thirty percent of my cultivation."

Upon hearing Qin Chuan’s words, Tang Yue’er became anxious and almost pleaded, "Big Brother Qin, I’m begging you, please don’t fight Liu Kuangren, okay?"

Qin Chuan said firmly, "I must go!"

It wasn’t that he was arrogantly overconfident; this battle was a matter of honor for the Battle Domain. If he didn’t go, how would others view the Battle Domain?

Green Gate Sect had already announced that Liu Kuangren would fight the Sovereign Master today at the summit of Yandu Yun Summit Mountain. Since the Battle Domain had chosen him to replace the Sovereign Master, it clearly meant the Sovereign Master was not in Yandu.

If he fled the battle, it would certainly damage the reputation of the Shen Zhou Battle Domain, and even the nationals would feel humiliated.

This battle must not only be fought but also won!

Seeing the worry on Tang Yue’er’s face, Qin Chuan confidently said, "Thirty percent of my cultivation is enough!"

"But..."

Tang Yue’er wanted to say more but was interrupted by Qin Chuan, "Don’t worry, I will be fine."

After speaking, Qin Chuan looked towards Miao Dahai within the Five Poisons Gu Formation.

At this moment, Miao Dahai was nothing more than a crippled body, his flesh gnawed away by the Five Poisons Gu Worms.

Qin Chuan asked, "Now, can you tell me why you used the Gu poison on Murong Fu?"

Miao Dahai, seeing a glimmer of hope, pleaded, "I’ll tell you! I’ll tell you everything if you deactivate this formation first."

Qin Chuan merely stomped his foot and saw the Five Poisons swiftly burrow into the cracks in the ground, and then the earth shook again as those cracks quickly closed up and disappeared.

Seeing this, Miao Dahai realized how terrifying the young man before him was. With such godlike abilities, who would dare to battle against him?

Miao Dahai gritted his teeth and said, "It was Murong family’s son-in-law Long Sanlin who asked me to afflict Murong Fu with the Zimu Gu!"

If it weren’t for Long Sanlin getting him into such a mess, how would he have ended up in such a plight?

If Long Sanlin were here, he would definitely fight him to the death.

Qin Chuan didn’t speak, just stared somberly at Miao Dahai, waiting for more.

Miao Dahai continued, "The reason I agreed to help Long Sanlin against Murong Fu was that Long Sanlin gave me an irresistible treasure."

Qin Chuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, "What treasure?"

A treasure that even a powerhouse at the Initial Stage of the Emperor Realm would covet must be extraordinary.

Miao Dahai glanced at Qin Chuan, then suddenly asked, "If I give you this treasure, can you spare my life?"

Qin Chuan shook his head without hesitation, "I can’t!"

Miao Dahai’s face turned green. Although he had anticipated this response, it was still hard to accept.

But the experience within the Five Poisons Gu Formation was something he truly did not want to endure again. Given the choice, he would rather choose death.

With this thought, he no longer hesitated and removed an ancient ring from his finger.

When Qin Chuan saw a lotus pattern on the ring, his expression changed drastically, and he stared intently at Miao Dahai, gritting his teeth, "This ring, is it the compensation Long Sanlin gave you?"

Seeing Qin Chuan’s murderous look, Miao Dahai hurriedly nodded, "Long Sanlin said that this ring hides all the wealth of the exterminated Qin Family."
