A gift returned ten thousandfold: I am the number one licker in all realms!

Luo Xing trembled involuntarily upon hearing the elder's words, never expecting that he could maintain such a state even under the corrosive influence of fire poison.

If an ordinary person were to be exposed to the poison of fire, their very survival would be in question. Yet, the current generation of Qian has only experienced a decline in strength.

Luo Xing couldn't help but wonder, what kind of person was this senior in the past?

But there's no time to think about that now. The most important thing right now is to get this senior to save Liu Yan's life. Judging from Liu Yan's condition, she probably won't live much longer if she doesn't receive treatment soon.

"Since you have recovered, senior, then what you just promised..."

The senior nodded, "Of course."

"Since you wish me to expel the fire poison, then I will grant you what I just promised."

"Of course we can't go back on our word. This girl's heart meridian has already been invaded by the poison. If we delay any longer, it's really hard to say what will happen."

"Straighten his body immediately. I'll try it here first."

"My strength has just recovered, and I feel quite uneasy."

In truth, he had already forgotten how long this fire poison had been eroding him. From his memory, it seemed to have been at least a decade or more. For these past ten years, he had suffered from the fire poison's corrosive effects every day, as if his entire body were being scorched by flames, or as if he were engulfed in a sea of ​​fire.

In that instant, the sheer ease he felt made him slightly uneasy, yet it was such a comfortable feeling. As the saying goes, being free of possessions brings a sense of freedom.

Upon hearing the elder's words, Liu Yan was immediately helped to sit cross-legged on the stone bed by Luo Xing.

The elder walked slowly over to Liu Yan's side and gently waved his hand. A stream of ice-attribute spiritual energy instantly enveloped Liu Yan.

In an instant, Liu Yan's body trembled, and her originally pale face suddenly became flushed.

"The scorpion venom is a rather overpowering and common method, but it has no effect at all."

"You were just lucky. If I were an ordinary person, even if I were the most powerful, I wouldn't be able to cure you of this scorpion venom."

"Of course, I can't guarantee it either. Whether it can be cured or not, we'll have to wait and see."

"If I really can't cure the poison by then, don't blame me."

Luo Xing nodded and continued.

"Senior, what you say is natural. As long as you have done your best, that's fine. Whether you can interpret it or not is entirely up to fate. As the saying goes, after doing your best, you can leave the rest to fate."

"If this girl's fate cannot be saved, then it's over."

The elder nodded, quite satisfied with what Luo Xing had said. Putting everything else aside, this young man's temperament was rather calm. He was indeed a promising talent for cultivation, and given time, he would surely achieve great things.

The next second, two streams of ice-attribute spiritual energy from the cold-attribute human body wrapped around Liu Yan's body.

It must be said that this cold-attribute spiritual power seems to have a miraculous effect on the scorpion venom.

At the very moment of contact, the scorpion venom seemed to recede. The veins previously eroded by the venom appeared to slowly disappear under the influence of the ice element.

The old swindler was sitting cross-legged behind Liu Yan, slowly forcing out the ice-attribute poison.

You can see black sweat beading on Liu Yan's forehead; from a distance, it even looks a little creepy.

Luo Xing and Lily were both worried for him.

Whether this girl can survive depends on now. If this old man still can't make it, where can we find some poison for him in this vast desert?

The interpretation lasted for about two hours. Even the senior was somewhat exhausted, his spiritual power was constantly weakening, and his aura began to tremble.

Finally, the old master withdrew his supernatural powers and slowly stood up, letting out a breath.

Luo Xing and the others quickly gathered around.

"How are you, senior? Has the poison been neutralized?"

Luo Xing looked at Liu Yan, and something still seemed off, even though her complexion had regained some color. He could sense that the toxin was still present.

Of course, judging from the fact that it's a new purchase, there's no immediate danger to his life.

The old man sighed heavily and shook his head.

"No, you're too late. If you had arrived earlier, it would have been alright, but you've come far too late."

"Just now, while I was treating him, the scorpion venom had already invaded his heart."

"I can only temporarily use ice-attribute spiritual power to freeze the poison, but removing the poison will not be so simple."

"This girl's life is really a bit tragic."

Princess Lily, the primal goddess, changed her expression instantly upon hearing the elder's words.

He had always treated Liu Yan as a companion along the way, but now one of them was going to die?

"Doesn't the senior have any other options? What is his current condition?"

The old man slowly rose, his hands behind his back, his eyes deep in thought, a hint of sleep in them.

"There is a solution, but it's a bit difficult."

"Strictly speaking, scorpion venom can be considered a fire-attribute toxin, which is the so-called 'fighting poison with poison'."

"Deep within the desert lies a core of fire attribute called the power of fire."

"Also known as the Flame Stone, if you obtain it, you might be able to use it to dispel scorpion venom."

"Of course, this girl is not in any immediate danger, but she may suffer from the same fire-attribute toxins as me every now and then."

For a moment, Luo Xing fell into deep thought. Was it deep in the desert again? Did that coincide with their current trip to the Tager Desert to find the core of that spaceship?

"Thank you for informing me, senior. May I ask if it would be possible to leave my friend with you temporarily?"

"Let's head deep into the desert to find that thing."

"After we return, we will take him with us. May I ask if it would be convenient for you to take care of him?"

The old man stroked his beard and smiled.

"I'm already quite old, what's the point of talking about convenience? Besides, my strength hasn't fully recovered yet, so I might as well sit here and recuperate. Once you return, perhaps I'll be able to recover more spiritual power and venture out of this desert again."

Back in the day, he was a spirited and ambitious man in Black Soil City, but now he's trapped in the desert, filled with resentment for years. He has no idea what has become of his family.

When the elder in the family agreed, Mr. Luo was overjoyed and bowed with his hands clasped in greeting.

"Thank you very much, senior. We'll set off right away."

Liu Yan slowly opened her eyes and looked at Luo Xing.

"Young master, are you leaving? Don't leave me behind."

Although Liu Yan had regained some of his strength, he was still very weak. He could only lie in bed and could barely move, and he didn't even have the strength to get out of bed.

Luo Xing stepped forward and put her hand on his shoulder.

"Girl, stay here and take good care of yourself. An elder is here to look after you."
