"I think that the poison on Mr. Dugu should be the inherited poison of your family's wuhun Bilinshe. This kind of inherited poison will be passed down generation after generation, and it will only become more severe."
"This poison, I have a way to help you remove it." Cheng Xiao met Dugu Bo's hopeful gaze and pondered, "Not only you — I can also remove the poison on Dugu Yan, it's just that it may take a little longer."
"Boy, didn't you just speak confidently about being able to remove the poison from my body?" Dugu Bo stared coldly at Cheng Xiao, "Could it be that you are trying to deceive me?"
Hearing this, Cheng Xiao sighed helplessly, "Mr. Dugu, nothing is absolute. Since you want to remove the poison from your body, but you don't believe me, and what I said about time refers to the success rate of removing the poison."
"If you don't believe me, then there's nothing I can do."
Seeing Dugu Bo's gloomy expression, Cheng Xiao didn't waste more words, leaving the choice entirely to Dugu Bo. After all, he was not the one who would die from poison — he was in no hurry.
Moreover, Cheng Xiao understood well — Dugu Bo could not possibly ignore the life of his granddaughter. How old was Dugu Yan now? She still had a promising future.
On the other hand, Dugu Bo's own son had died due to the Bilinshe poison. His green hair already marked the tragedy of "white-haired man sending off black-haired youth." Naturally, he would never allow his granddaughter to walk down that same path.
Dugu Bo had played with poison all his life, yet in the end, he was helpless against the poison in his own body. What a sorrowful fate. Perhaps he had tried to resolve the poison before, but the result had only been more pain.
Over time, he simply gave up…
"You're called Cheng Xiao, right? If you can really help me remove the poison from my body, you've seen this medicine garden — many herbs here even I do not recognize. If you need something, just take it." Realizing he could no longer delay, Dugu Bo's shifting expression slowly calmed, his hands moved behind his back, and his tone also softened.
"Speak — what method do you have to resolve the poison in my body?"
"The simplest method is to transfer all the poison in your body into a hun bone. A hun bone is a dead object, so the poison won't反噬 your body. In that case, the problem of poison in your body will be solved."
"But although this method is simple, it also carries many hidden risks. It can only serve as a temporary measure, not a good or permanent solution."
"Hun bones are extremely rare, but they also vary in quality. Their capacity to contain poison is limited. How much poison they can ultimately store, no one knows."
"Moreover, your Bilinshe Huang is different from ordinary Bilinshe. Your poison has extremely strong corrosive properties. If all the continuously generated poison in your body is transferred to the hun bone, over time, whether the hun bone can withstand it is unknown."
"Furthermore, when you use hun bone skills, if the bone's durability is insufficient and poison leaks out, that will be the most dangerous situation. After all, no one knows whether the hun bone will develop problems in the end."
"But you don't need to worry. Using a hun bone as a temporary method can at least reduce some pain for you, preventing you from suffering like death every time the poison flares."
As soon as Cheng Xiao finished talking, Dugu Bo couldn't help but interject, "Boy, your solution is to have me temporarily use a hun bone? Then what about the long-term solution?"
"Ah, Mr. Dugu, don't rush. As they say, food must be eaten bite by bite, and matters must be handled one step at a time. Solving the poison in your body cannot be rushed." Cheng Xiao waved his finger and then smiled, "Of course, if you are desperate, I do have a method to completely remove the poison in your body. But in that case, your proud poison skills will be completely erased."
"What? What kind of solution is that? I have spent my life mastering poison, and now you tell me that to remove it, I must abolish my poison cultivation?" Staring at Cheng Xiao's calm face, Dugu Bo felt despair. To erase his poison cultivation was worse than killing him.
After all, what is a titled Douluo known as Du Douluo if he cannot use poison? Wouldn't he become just an ordinary useless old man?
Dugu Bo's mentality was breaking. He was completely stuck between two choices now.
Either use the hun bone temporarily, but with uncertainty, or erase his poison cultivation to save his life.
At first glance, the former seemed better, but who could guarantee it would succeed?
Dugu Bo's current situation was to gamble on success — otherwise, death awaited.
Seeing Dugu Bo deep in thought, Cheng Xiao glanced around and secretly thought, "As expected, I still need that cheap teacher of mine to come. With Ju Douluo's knowledge of flowers and herbs, he should recognize the immortal herbs here. Otherwise, even if I pick them, I won't know which immortal herb is which."
"Boy, is there no better solution?" After thinking a while, Dugu Bo still felt uneasy and asked quietly.
"There is — but you must wait." Cheng Xiao looked at Dugu Bo and smiled faintly.
"Then how long must I wait?" Dugu Bo frowned.
"Probably… around ten years or so?" Cheng Xiao rubbed his chin seriously.
"Ten years!" Dugu Bo exclaimed, then waved helplessly, "Forget it. I'll trust you this once. For now, I'll use a hun bone to temporarily suppress it."
"I currently have a head hun bone. According to your method, I should transfer all the poison into the head hun bone?"
"If you transfer it into your head hun bone, you might as well prepare to die." Cheng Xiao glanced at him.
Hearing this, Dugu Bo's face froze, "Then what do I do? I only managed to obtain one head hun bone after roaming the continent for so many years. You can't seriously expect me to go to the Soul Beast Forest and farm hun bones?"
"The drop rate of hun bones is already low. If you really go and farm soul beasts, within a week, all the soul beasts in the forest will be slaughtered by you." Cheng Xiao said helplessly.
"Then what should I do? You can't seriously expect me to erase my poison cultivation?" Dugu Bo asked in frustration.
"Don't rush. Let me think again." Cheng Xiao waved his hand, sat cross-legged, and began thinking.
His yinying zhili was not like Tang San's Xuantian Gong inner power — it could not help Dugu Bo clear some of the poison first and then transfer it into the hun bone. His yinying zhili, apart from being usable by him, had destructive effects on others.
After all, yinying zhili was largely used by the Shadow Monarch to reclaim dead souls and turn them into shadow soldiers. Such a powerful ability would not work well for saving people.
