Chapter 622: Chapter 622: The Space Detoxification Horror Upgrade (1)_1

In the three primary medicinal ingredients, the century-old red python gall is a holy item for detoxification, but it is also extremely Yin and cold by nature. Its medicinal properties are extremely dominant, and only black Lingzhi, which is mild in nature and possesses multiple effects such as detoxification and repair, can suppress and neutralize it, making it usable for the human body.

As for the thousand-year Ginseng, it is used to strengthen Chu Heng’s foundation and cultivate his original energy. Chu Heng has been poisoned for a long time, with his internal organs, flesh, and bone marrow all contaminated by toxins. Now, in such a weakened state, his body is severely deficient. During the detoxification, the essence of his blood and original energy will also be expelled along with the toxins.

Without the support of essence and original energy, even if the toxins are successfully removed, he will have no chance of survival. Only the thousand-year Ginseng can quickly make up for his lost essence. Common Ginseng and similar substances are useless to him.

Doctor Gui did not have full confidence in removing the heart-eating poison from his body, and the detoxification process was very painful. He did not know if Chu Heng had the willpower to endure it, but aside from this, there were no other ways to prolong Chu Heng’s life.

Emperor Huian was very aware of this. He stayed in the medicinal chamber the entire time Night Ghost Doctor was detoxifying Chu Heng, barely closing his eyes for a moment.

In the medicinal chamber, Chu Heng, still in a coma, was soaking naked in the scorching medicinal pool, with only his head exposed. The three-foot-square medicinal pool was covered with dozens of precious and common medicinal herbs, filling the entire chamber with an unpleasant medicinal scent.

As time passed, an unnatural flush appeared on Chu Heng’s originally pale face. The reason it was abnormal was that within the flush, hints of green-black could be seen faintly—and they were moving. Like black worms hidden beneath the skin, they made Chu Heng’s originally gentle countenance appear frightfully ghastly and eerie.

Emperor Huian saw this scene very clearly. He took a sharp breath and hurriedly looked at Doctor Gui, only to see him seriously pick up a porcelain bottle containing the century-old red python gall from the table, uncorking the bottle and slowly pouring it into the medicinal pool.

The moment the dark green liquid merged into the pool, the water in the pool seemed to boil, churning and bubbling up, releasing an even more pungent odor that immediately filled the entire medicinal chamber.

Emperor Huian unconsciously furrowed his brows, his gaze unwavering as he watched Chu Heng in the pool. He saw the green-black streaks moving more violently on his face, thrashing about as if they were about to break through the skin’s confines.

At that moment, dense beads of sweat appeared on Chu Heng’s forehead, his facial expression becoming even more dreadful, and he involuntarily let out fine moans from his throat, clearly enduring immense pain.

Emperor Huian felt extreme heartache, wishing he could suffer this pain in place of his child. He suppressed the impulse to pull Chu Heng out, but with difficulty, he turned his head away, his bloodshot eyes flashing with a thick hatred.

At that time, Emperor Huian didn’t know that the pain his most beloved child had to endure during detoxification had only just begun...

Outside the medicinal chamber, Yan Junyu walked back and forth restlessly, wishing he could break down the door and rush in.

Xiao Ruiyuan stood expressionless beside a column, watching the door of the medicinal chamber. He didn’t seem too worried about the situation inside, yet he hadn’t changed his standing posture even though one and a half hours had passed.

Chief Eunuch Liang Gonggong was also frantically wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, having already soaked several of them through.

Seeing that another one and a half hours would bring dawn, Mo Yan also began to grow anxious. First, she was concerned about whether Chu Heng’s poison could be successfully detoxified; second, she was eager to return home, hoping to sneak back into her own courtyard unnoticed before dawn. Otherwise, if her family knew she was missing, she couldn’t imagine how worried they would become.
