Many children, many blessings: Stealing the offspring of powerful figures to cultivate immortality.

Gu Qinghan placed his fingers on Jiang Yining's wrist pulse.

His face turned even paler than the snow and ice outside in an instant.

The "Shadow Poison" pulse that had just been suppressed was now ten times more violent than before.

He could clearly feel an extremely domineering devouring force raging in Jiang Yining's dantian.

This force is frantically draining Jiang Yining's life force.

"How could this happen?" Gu Qinghan's voice trembled uncontrollably.

"The medicinal power of the Nine Suns Melting Snow Pill has clearly neutralized the toxicity."

Why did it deteriorate so quickly?

Gu Qinghan had no idea.

The intense battle outside just now, especially the high-level energy of the Protoss race that was released when Tianyan died.

It stimulated the little flower bud inside Jiang Yining's body.

The Divine Tree of All Spirits, eager to protect its young, began to absorb energy indiscriminately in order to store energy for the little life.

This caused Jiang Yining's pulse to appear as if she were suffering from poisoning and her life was about to end.

Jiang Yining leaned weakly against Gu Qinghan's broad chest.

Her breathing was extremely faint, like a butterfly that might die at any moment.

"Qinghan... Am I going to die?" Jiang Yining's voice carried just the right amount of sorrow.

Actually, she is perfectly clear-headed right now.

She even had time to complain that the "money-devouring beast" in her belly had too big an appetite.

If we don't find some high-level energy to replenish it, this little tyrant will eventually have to draw blood from herself.

We must not sit idly by and wait for our demise.

"Nonsense!" Gu Qinghan suddenly hugged Jiang Yining tightly.

His eyes were bloodshot from extreme anxiety.

"With me here, even if the King of Hell himself came, he wouldn't be able to snatch anyone from my grasp!"

"I will definitely heal you, I definitely will!"

Gu Qinghan gently placed Jiang Yining on the couch.

He turned around and frantically searched through the mountains of ancient medical books and jade slips.

The jade slip rustled as he flipped through it.

Countless precious ancient books were scattered all over the ground.

at last.

Gu Qinghan stopped in front of an ancient scroll made of yellowed animal hide.

His eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had grasped at the last straw in despair.

"Found it."

Gu Qinghan walked quickly back to the bedside and took Jiang Yining's cold hand in his.

"Ning'er, the reason why the Shadow Poison is so stubborn is because it has already damaged the foundation of your soul."

"Conventional pure yang substances can only suppress, not eradicate."

"I must reshape your soul."

"Only the legendary 'Nine Netherworld Soul-Nourishing Grass' can achieve this miraculous resurrection!"

Jiang Yining squinted her eyes, revealing a hint of doubt at the opportune moment.

"Nine Netherworld Soul-Nourishing Grass? What's that?"

Gu Qinghan's expression became more solemn than ever before.

"That is a sacred object that only grows in the most dangerous place in the Canglan Realm—the 'Ghost Domain'."

"The Ghost Realm is not part of the world of the living; it is a place where countless ghosts roam and the air is thick with yin energy."

"Even powerful cultivators at the Spirit Awakening Realm often never return after entering."

Gu Qinghan gritted her teeth and made up her mind.

"But I, Gu Qinghan, have saved countless people in my life. I don't believe I can't even save my own woman."

"Wait here for me, I'm going to the Ghost Realm right now!"

Jiang Yining's heart stirred.

Ghostland?

She had heard about it from rogue cultivators when she was in Dan City.

Those prodigies with special physiques captured by the Protoss in the lower realms, if they do not meet the official auction standards...

They would be treated as "black goods" and thrown directly into the underground trading market of the Ghost Realm.

Erbao Chu Anyan possesses the Purple Star Emperor Physique and has boundless fortune, making it highly likely that he left clues in that chaotic place.

She was worried about not finding an excuse to leave Danta to find her relatives.

This is like a pillow delivered just when you're about to fall asleep.

However, the Ghost Realm is so dangerous that it would be too risky for her to go alone.

Bringing Gu Qinghan, a high-level fighter at the Mahayana stage or even the Dao Inquiry stage, will definitely increase safety many times over.

Moreover, the little bud in her belly must really love the pure Yin energy of the Ghost Realm.

Just as Jiang Yining was pondering how to persuade Gu Qinghan to take her along...

A sudden change occurred.

A chilling black streak of light suddenly ignored the restrictions on the Pill Tower.

With a "whoosh".

The streak of light pierced through the broken glass window like a sharp arrow, striking the nearby gold and purple pillar with a resounding crash.

A dark, gloomy aura instantly filled the room.

It was a black invitation made of human skin.

Fresh, dark red blood was still dripping from the edge of the invitation.

Gu Qinghan's eyes sharpened, and he raised his hand to grab at something in the air.

The invitation in human skin fell into his palm.

As soon as the invitation was opened, a sinister and eerie laugh echoed through the laboratory.

"I have long heard that Gu Qinghan, the master of the Pill Tower, possesses divine medical skills and is the number one divine physician in the Canglan Realm."

"I have been unwell recently, so I have specially arranged a 'Banquet of Ten Thousand Ghosts'."

"I humbly request that Physician Gu grace the Ghost King's Palace with his presence and offer me some medical treatment."

"If you can cure my strange illness, the entire field of Nine Nether Soul Nourishing Grass can be given to the divine physician as payment for the consultation."

The signature was three striking blood-red characters: Yu Luofeng.

Gu Qinghan's expression turned extremely ugly.

Yu Luofeng, the Lord of the Ghost Realm.

He was a notorious madman in the Canglan Realm.

A terrifying being in the semi-saint realm, capricious and ruthless in killing.

Rumor has it that the techniques he practiced were extremely evil, often involving skinning and dismembering living people to create grotesque ghost puppets.

Going to treat him is like asking a tiger for its skin.

But the field of Nine Nether Soul-Nourishing Grass is an irresistible temptation for Gu Qinghan.

Jiang Yining struggled to sit up in bed.

She reached out and grabbed Gu Qinghan's sleeve.

"Qinghan...can you take me with you?"

Gu Qinghan immediately refused: "No way! The Ghost Realm is too dangerous, and Yu Luofeng is a ruthless demon who eats people without spitting out the bones."

"Your body can't withstand the yin energy there."

"You stay obediently in the Pill Tower, and I will set up the strongest barrier to protect you."

How could Jiang Yining possibly agree to stay here?

Her eyes reddened, and tears rolled down her cheeks like beads from a broken string.

She can pull off this kind of innocent, vulnerable act with ease.

"I'm not staying here." Jiang Yining's voice choked with emotion, carrying a hint of determination.

"If you're not here, what will happen if Zhao Wudu's remaining forces and the Protoss attacked again?"

"I don't want to die alone in this cold tower."

"Before I die, all I want is to keep looking at you."

"If I really have to die, I want to die in your arms."

These words struck Gu Qinghan's biggest weakness precisely.

What he feared most was that Jiang Yining would face death alone and helpless.

He recalled the arrogant killing intent that Tianyan had just displayed.

If he really leaves, Dan City is indeed not safe.

Gu Qinghan took a deep breath and tightly grasped Jiang Yining's hand in return.

"Okay, I'll take you away."

"As long as I, Gu Qinghan, have a breath left, those demons and monsters of the Ghost Realm will not be able to touch a single hair on your head."

Jiang Yining nodded obediently.

The tears in his eyes vanished instantly, replaced by extreme calmness and calculation.

Gu Qinghan quickly searched the medicine storehouse and found a large number of extremely yang and strong defensive magic treasures and pills.

He put all the resources into a high-end storage ring and put it on Jiang Yining's finger.

Half an hour later.

A black spirit boat that looks ordinary on the outside, but is actually covered with hidden formations.

It rose silently from behind the tower.

Like a ghost, it sped towards the Ghost Realm in the far west of the Canglan Realm.
