One person: Lu family bodyguard, who shattered Longhu Mountain with a single palm strike.

Lin Mo had just finished speaking.

Chen Duo let out a muffled groan, her slender body jerking backward.

In that instant, she felt a vast, warm power that brought tears to her eyes.

Like a raging torrent in spring, it violently yet gently opened up her blocked and withered meridians.

This power was filled with unimaginable vitality, and wherever it passed, the hidden pain caused by the primal poison that had been gnawing at them for years miraculously subsided.

And as the true energy circulated, that vitality became more and more vigorous.

"Don't just stand there, calm yourself down."

Lin Mo sat on the wooden stool, his eyes like two burning golden flames, and reminded him in a deep voice, "Coordinate with the true energy I infuse, follow the path of your usual circulatory cycle."

Chen Duo bit her lower lip, letting out a muffled cry of pain, and obediently replied, "Okay."

She closed her eyes, enduring the soreness and swelling from her meridians being instantly filled, and began to actively activate the already scarce innate Qi within her body.

However, what happened next deeply shocked the girl who had suffered so much at the Medicine Fairy Society since childhood.

She sensed it clearly.

When his meager innate Qi came into contact with the terrifying energy that Lin Mo had poured in, he did not encounter any rejection.

On the contrary, that vast external force changed its nature in an instant, transforming entirely into her own natal true qi, which shared the same origin as her.

This feeling is so strange.

It was as if this immense, terrifying power had been lurking within her body since the moment she was born, and had always belonged to her.

Her power was increasing exponentially, and Chen Duo felt as if her internal organs were being soaked in warm water. The sense of crisis that she used to feel, that the poison might break through her skin at any moment, had vanished without a trace.

Moreover, the Gu-body Saint Child within her, which had been stagnant, was undergoing a dramatic transformation under the nourishment of this massive amount of life force.

Originally, due to Chen Duo's own cultivation level, the Gu Body Saint Child was only in a rudimentary growth stage.

However, this external force forcibly broke the shackles, causing this long and painful growth period to be shortened indefinitely.

It is climbing wildly toward some unknown high point with an unstoppable momentum.

Standing to the side, Lu Linglong opened her mouth wide and covered her lips tightly with both hands, afraid that she would exclaim and disturb the amazing scene in front of her.

In her view, Chen Duo was undergoing an extraordinary and illogical transformation.

The closer you get to the core of the body, the more the riddled, tattered tissues begin to wriggle and grow at a visible speed.

Bright red new flesh has grown along the edges of the once deep, bone-revealing boil, and the numerous tiny pores are gradually closing.

A storm raged within Lu Linglong's heart.

She could hardly believe her eyes. This was no ordinary healing; it was the legendary act of restoring flesh to bones.

Lin Mo ignored the reactions from the outside world. He closed his eyes slightly and, relying on the terrifying perception of the Shattered Void Realm, he grasped every subtle change in Chen Duo's heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys.

He keenly sensed that the Gu-body Saint Child within Chen Duo's body was greedily devouring true energy, constantly breaking through its original limits.

Lin Mo nodded to himself, it seemed that his previous speculation was completely correct.

If the Gu-body Saint Child can skip the growth period and reach its complete form, then its host will inevitably be able to be just like a normal person.

At least outwardly, there are no visible signs of anything amiss, and the release and containment of the original Gu poison can be controlled at will.

Even if we take a step back and assume that this method was destined to have such a fatal flaw from the very beginning...

If they could only create an uncontrollable source of poison, those old poison masters from the Medicine Immortal Society would never go to the trouble of making something like that.

Back then, the Medicine Immortal Society used secret techniques to search for hundreds and thousands of promising talents from all over the country.

These children were locked in a cave to fight poison with poison, and in the end, some died and others were maimed, leaving only Chen Duo as the sole survivor.

You should know that those children who were used as nourishment, as long as they survived and practiced Qi properly, would all become top-notch individuals in the world of supernatural beings.

This will definitely boost the overall strength of the Medicine Immortal Society by a significant margin.

But those old guys didn't do that. They coldly treated these geniuses as disposable cannon fodder, like raising poisonous insects, letting them kill each other and die from the poison, thus creating a poisonous saint child.

They paid such a terrible price.

The Medicine Immortal Society is definitely not after a defective product that is riddled with holes, could accidentally kill its own people at any time, and even has to wear heavy protective clothing when going out.

Thinking of this, Lin Mo did not stop what he was doing. He quietly activated the most profound secret technique in the Sacred Heart Technique, the Ocean-Absorbing Sacred Heart Mantra.

This secret technique can not only perfectly transform the Heavenly Extreme True Qi poured into Chen Duo's body into Chen Duo's attributes.

This energy, like a gentle stream, completely permeated Chen Duo's limbs and bones, even deeply participating in the core operation of the Gu Body Saint Child technique.

However, all of this, which seems like a selfless gift, actually hides a secret.

Although this true energy was disguised as Chen Duo's natal qi, Lin Mo still firmly held control over it at the most fundamental level.

Xu Fu spent a thousand years creating the Sacred Heart Mantra, and the core purpose of this mantra is precisely this.

First, transform your own true energy into the same source of power as the target, and then silently merge it into the other person's body.

When the time is right, extract all the true energy that the other party has painstakingly cultivated, along with interest, and keep it for yourself.

This method can both seize the supernatural power and strength within another person's true energy and achieve victory without bloodshed.

In fact, when Xu Fu disguised himself as Indra to recruit those peerless masters at the Heavenly Gate, the method of prolonging life used to win people's hearts was the same.

On the surface, it appears to be a benevolent act of granting his disciples long lifespans.

In reality, it's just about pouring one's own true energy into their bodies to forcibly restore their aging vitality.

If Indra were willing, he could sever the connection at any time and instantly drain the true energy used for support.

Once the true energy is extracted, those masters who have been forcibly extended will instantly run out of energy and die. This is what is meant by granting life and taking away life.

Lin Mo wasn't trying to scheme against Chen Duo; he just habitually kept a trump card up his sleeve.

After all, in this perilous world of supernatural beings, it's always good to be cautious.

The inner room of the courtyard was quiet, with only the sound of Chen Duo's heartbeat gradually becoming steady and strong.

Lu Linglong stared intently at Chen Duo, noticing that Chen Duo's wounds were healing faster and faster.

The originally bleak and lifeless atmosphere became stronger and more vibrant, like withered trees coming back to life in spring.

This made Lu Linglong genuinely happy; she even felt that the scene before her was more meaningful than anything else.

But when her gaze returned to Lin Mo, a sense of worry inexplicably rose in her heart.
