My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 393 Method to Remove the Gu
"The Gu techniques of the Southern Yue are truly living up to their reputation!"

Finding a cure may not be so easy.

After carefully examining the group of cultivators who had been poisoned by Gu, looking emaciated and lying weakly on their sickbeds, who had come from the front lines,
Shen Changchuan sighed.

He gently closed the door, shook his head, and walked outside.

The types of Gu worms that these people were infected with were incredibly diverse.

Some are parasitic, some are integrated into the flesh and blood, and some are even microorganisms that are difficult to detect.

There are all kinds.

The worms are different, the symptoms are different, and the ways and forms of their onset are all different!
How difficult it is to find a cure!
This is not something that Shen Changchuan, with his mere second-tier Gu technique advancement, can resolve.

Even among these cultivators who have been poisoned by Gu, the person who cast the Gu might only be at the second level of Gu cultivation.

But finding a cure is extremely difficult.

This is not difficult to understand.

Ordinary people can find things to use as poison.
However, detoxifying is not something an ordinary person can do.

Even experienced doctors,

It is also necessary to examine the patient's various external symptoms and even conduct various tests to determine the type of poison and ultimately provide a reasonable treatment plan.

No wonder.

Many late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators who remained in the Desolate City were helpless in the face of this situation.

"Ah, does that mean these fellow practitioners are just waiting to die?"

Seeing this, Gu Xuanqing, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but show a worried expression.

"That's not the case."

Shen Changchuan waved his hand, then changed the subject.

"Although I cannot determine what kind of Gu worms they are infected with in a short time, I also do not have the ability to concoct an antidote."

"However, there is no need to treat those who are afflicted by Gu poison with a completely targeted approach."

"how do I say this?"

Gu Xuanqing's eyes lit up as he looked at Shen Changchuan.

"Although I don't have the ability to prescribe the right medicine, I do have the ability to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause!"

Between talking,

Shen Changchuan nodded slightly to him, a smile appearing on his face.

He certainly did not have an antidote, nor could he develop a corresponding antidote in a short period of time.

However, eliminating the Gu worms does not always require an antidote.

The last time Wu Tianhao's Gu worms were removed, it was by expelling the Gu worms themselves.

No specific antidote was used.

Anyway,

As long as the Gu worm is expelled from the human body or even dies.

Then, with the addition of treatments such as Rejuvenating Pills, the body can gradually recover.

It's just like the surgery performed by Western medicine in my past life.

You can operate on the affected area without needing any expertise in pathology or pharmacology to prescribe the right medicine.

of course,

This method naturally has certain drawbacks.

One,

Implanting Gu worms into the body, or even turning the human body into a battlefield, would cause cultivators to suffer further damage to their vital energy, and their injuries might even worsen as a result.

Furthermore, the severe depletion of vital energy may have a certain impact on future cultivation.

Second,

However, this method is somewhat difficult to promote.

Taking Shen Changchuan's method as an example, he was able to control Xiao Jin to enter the human body to expel the Gu.

But he was only one person, and as a second-tier high-level Gu King, he only had Xiao Jin. In contrast, there were hundreds of Gu-infected individuals in the Wilderness City who had been withdrawn from the front lines and were in the worst condition.

There are many more wounded on the front lines whose injuries aren't that severe and who can still be barely suppressed!
Therefore,
Shen Changchuan has limited manpower.
It can only save those cultivators who are seriously ill, or whose condition is so bad that they are almost on their deathbed.

As for the others, they can only endure it and rely on themselves to get through it.

For this,

Shen Changchuan did not hide anything at all.

He told Gu Xuanqing everything.

"Being able to remove the curse and save a life is already quite remarkable!"

“In recent days, I have witnessed countless cultivators suffering from Gu poison die before my very eyes.”

"Please do your best, my junior disciple!"

"Whatever is needed, the Wilderness City will provide it all!"

"If we succeed this time, I will definitely report to the Alliance and ask for a generous reward for you!"

Gu Xuanqing was overjoyed and paid no attention to the potential harm to his vital energy that Shen Changchuan had mentioned.

Compared to life, what is a serious loss of vitality?
Even with his nearly two-hundred-year-old temperament, he couldn't help but feel a little excited at this moment.

Because among these cultivators who were afflicted by the Gu poison, the disciples of his Ancient Sword Sect were the most numerous!

Because the Ancient Sword Sect practices the way of the sword, its members are basically all sword cultivators.

Sword cultivators, on the other hand, derive most of their strength from their swordsmanship.
This gives them immense destructive power that surpasses that of cultivators of the same level, but it also makes them lack protective measures and more susceptible to being infected by Gu worms.

Since this time,

The sect's sword cultivators, whose protective measures were weak, suffered a significant loss of elites.

If Shen Changchuan can resolve this matter, it will undoubtedly save the sect from a great deal of loss!
"Then I will do my best."

time flies,
Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

Within these five days,
Shen Changchuan repeatedly commanded Xiao Jin to enter the human body and expel the Gu worms from the body of the cultivators who were afflicted by Gu.

Simultaneously,

After expelling the Gu worms

Then, someone would give these Gu-afflicted cultivators, whose vital energy was so weak that they couldn't even move, healing pills such as Rejuvenation Pills.
Furthermore, physicians and cultivators who practice wood-attribute magic will help them recover some of their vital energy.

At least ensure that these cultivators, whose physical condition has been tortured to the point of near death, do not die suddenly from the severe damage to their vital energy after expelling the Gu worms.

However, these things have little to do with Shen Changchuan.

He had already exhausted a lot of energy just from being responsible for expelling the Gu worms from the cultivators' bodies, so he had to leave the rest to others.

Five days,
One by one, the curses were driven away.
Shen Changchuan successfully exorcised the Gu poison from 393 people.

among them,

Twenty-one people died immediately after the Gu worms were expelled from their bodies because their bodies had been hollowed out by the excessive growth of the worms.

And beyond these 393 people
Another sixty-eight people,

It appears to be some kind of microbial worm that cannot be seen by human eyes, which Xiao Jin cannot expel.

of course,

Those sixty-eight people were not entirely without options.

Seeing the despair in the eyes of those weak, dying cultivators who couldn't be exorcised by the curses,

Among them were also outer disciples of the Longxiao Sect.
Out of compassion, Shen Changchuan decided to try anything, even if it seemed hopeless, and suggested injecting purified penicillin into blood vessels.

We have no choice but to take a gamble.

The world is different, and he doesn't even know if penicillin exists in this world.

Moreover, even if he did have penicillin, he didn't know the purification process.

However, it shouldn't matter if it can't be purified.

After all, those who are afflicted by Gu poison are all cultivators.
People's physical constitutions are different.
Besides, with Rejuvenation Pills and Rejuvenation Techniques, these immortal cultivation pills and spells may have a little toxicity, so there shouldn't be any problem, right?
