Douluo V: Starting with daily check-ins, I'm trying to trick Xiao Wu into becoming my wife.

Faced with dire straits, Liu Erlong, who had fallen into utter despair and almost given up on survival, had a glimmer of light instantly appear in her dim eyes when she heard that Ao Yin still had a last way to detoxify.

That is the instinctive hope of a person on the verge of death, grasping at their last chance for survival.

She looked urgently at the boy in front of her, her tone filled with the earnestness of someone who had survived a disaster.

"Ao Yin, there's no need for such politeness!"

"If you hadn't risked your life to protect me today, I would have been completely corroded by Dugu Bo's strange poison, leaving no trace of my body!"

"Go ahead and do whatever you want, I'll accept whatever method you use! By the way, what exactly is this strange herb you have? How do you plan to cure me?"

Seeing Liu Erlong's completely trusting expression, Ao Yin's expression turned solemn. After a moment of contemplation, he slowly revealed the truth.

"This herb is called the Twin Dragons' Immortal Union Flower, a top-tier treasure unique to the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire."

"Its greatest effect is not to forcefully eliminate toxins, but to forcefully harmonize the yin and yang of the human body, unblock disordered meridians throughout the body, and activate the ultimate vitality of the physical body."

"You are poisoned by Dugu Bo's triple-type poison, which is intertwined with yin poison, cold poison, and fierce poison, taking root in your meridians and heart. Ordinary immortal herbs, soul power purification, and medicine to remove the poison are all ineffective."

"Only the Twin Dragons' Immortal Flower can forcibly disperse the disordered toxins and restore the balance of Qi and blood in the body."

Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong was shocked and instantly understood the special nature and harshness of this method.

The combined poison of the Title Douluo was too domineering, completely blocking all her meridians, sealing her soul power, and almost extinguishing her own life force.

Detoxification cannot be achieved simply by taking medication.

Ao Yin took a deep breath, his eyes extremely serious, and continued to explain in a deep voice.

"But this medicinal herb has extremely potent and unique properties."

"After taking the medicine, it will forcefully stimulate the rapid circulation of Qi and blood throughout the body, and the hot and cold properties of the medicine will violently collide with the root of the toxins."

"With your current weak and broken body, you simply cannot withstand the impact of this medicine. Your meridians will rupture, and you will explode and die on the spot."

"Therefore, I must use my own physical constitution to help you, leveraging my innate power of immunity to all poisons, combined with the medicinal properties of the immortal herbs and the ice-fire spring water, to help stabilize your body, facilitate the flow of the medicine, and gradually peel away the deadly poison!"

"This detoxification method requires you to be completely relaxed, absolutely trusting, and willingly cooperating; there can be no resistance whatsoever. Once you resist, your balance will be disrupted, and the toxins will instantly attack your heart, leaving no chance of survival!"

Boom!

These words exploded in Liu Erlong's mind like a thunderclap.

She instantly understood the danger involved.

This method is an ultimate rescue therapy that deeply guides, mutually supports the source, and unites body and mind. It is the only way to survive in desperate situations, but it is also the riskiest method.

Having lived for so many years, Liu Erlong was resilient, virtuous, and upright, and had never experienced such an extremely intimate and primal fusion with anyone.

For a moment, her cheeks burned, her mind was in turmoil, she felt both ashamed and flustered, but deep in her eyes, there was more helplessness in the face of a desperate struggle for survival.

Death was imminent, and she had no other choice.

But her instinctive restraint still made her grit her teeth and struggle.

"I……"

Liu Erlong's lips trembled slightly, and he was at a loss for words.

Seeing this, Ao Yin understood her concerns and did not press her. He simply spoke in a calm and earnest tone.

"Teacher Erlong, I know it's hard for you to accept."

"But in the face of life and death, all empty fame, etiquette, and pride are not worth mentioning."

"Dugu Bo has given us only a few hours left. The poison is eroding your heart every moment. If we delay any longer, even a god couldn't save you!"

"I saved you not for any personal gain, but solely to protect your life, and to complete the trial and resolve this deadly predicament for all of us!"

Ao Yin's eyes were open and honest, his heart upright and without a trace of ulterior motives; he was only determined and resolute in saving lives.

He has witnessed life and death, and understands even more the preciousness of life.

Rather than pointless pretense and pride, living is the only truth.

Looking into the clear, firm, and guileless eyes of the boy before her, Liu Erlong's chaotic thoughts gradually calmed down.

She smiled bitterly to herself.

Now that things have come to this, with his soul power completely depleted and his body poisoned, his life and death are entirely in the hands of the young man before him. What right does he have to resist?

After a long while, Liu Erlong slowly closed his eyes, nodded gently, his voice weak but calm.

"I understand... Go ahead and do it, I trust you."

Having received Liu Erlong's completely voluntary consent, Ao Yin no longer hesitated.

Saving lives is like putting out a fire; there is no time to lose!

With a flick of his fingertips, he steadily pinched the Twin Dragons' Union Flower and, with swift and deliberate movements, directly fed it into Liu Erlong's mouth.

The herb melts instantly upon entering the mouth, its gentle and pure medicinal power flowing down the throat and sweeping through the body in a flash.

With two soft whimpering sounds, Liu Erlong swallowed unconsciously.

The next instant, the overwhelming medicinal properties erupted!

boom!

The extremely warm medicinal power exploded, frantically attacking the three deadly poisons entrenched in her body.

The extreme clash of hot and cold medicinal properties caused the two forces to tear and clash wildly within her meridians.

Even in the freezing spring, Liu Erlong instantly felt hot and swollen all over, his blood surging and his bones burning!

The previously stiff and numb body was instantly enveloped by an endless flow of heat.

The medicine was too potent; in just a few breaths, it completely overwhelmed her weakened physical defenses.

She closed her eyes tightly, her brows furrowed, her whole body trembling slightly, letting the icy and fiery spring water wash over her body, trying her best to calm her mind and relax completely, cooperating with Ao Yin in the rescue.

Ao Yin quietly observed her changes in condition, constantly controlling the pace of the drug's effects.

A moment later, he seized the opportunity, moved swiftly, and slowly swam to Liu Erlong's side.

Having undergone tempering by the Yin-Yang duality of ice and fire and awakened the Yin-Yang protective divine energy, he possesses a robust and imposing physique, a calm and profound aura, and is surrounded by a pure and domineering Yin-Yang essence.

This unique aura has a strong calming and balancing effect on disordered Qi and blood, disordered meridians, and violent medicinal properties.

Upon close contact, the agitated Liu Erlong instinctively felt an extremely calming and reassuring power.

She slowly opened her hazy eyes, her gaze falling on the steady and reliable young man before her. Most of the panic in her heart quietly dissipated.

The effects of the medicine continued to erupt, and the toxins in her body kept surging back, making her feel unbearably hot and her meridians throbbing with pain.

She subconsciously raised her hand, trying to relieve the discomfort in her body, her movements weak and feeble, conveying extreme weakness and helplessness.

The undulating spring water accentuated her slender and delicate figure, making her appear pitiful.

The medicine completely stimulated the last bit of life in her body, forcibly awakening her dormant bodily functions. All the numbness and lifelessness were replaced by extreme heat.

All the previous struggles and anxieties vanished completely in the face of life-or-death crisis and the domineering effects of the drug.

At that moment, she had only one thought in her mind—to live!

She slightly raised her eyes, looking at Ao Yin in front of her, her voice soft and weak, with an uncontrollable urgency.

"The medicine... is too strong, I can't hold on much longer..."

"Ao Yin, quick! Help me channel the medicinal power and remove the toxins! I... I can't take it anymore!"

Ao Yin's expression was solemn, without the slightest hesitation.

"Stay calm, do not resist, and completely submit to my power!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and placed it on the acupoints on Liu Erlong's lower back, and the powerful and gentle Yin-Yang Divine Qi slowly flowed into her body.

The pure and stable primordial power instantly suppressed the rampant and chaotic power of the immortal herbs, firmly locking in the triple poison that was about to attack the heart.

The power of Yin-Yang Divine Qi, the source of immunity to all poisons, the power of the Twin Dragons' Immortal Flower Medicine, and the power of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Spring Water are combined into one!

They began to peel away the incurable poison left by Dugu Bo layer by layer, inch by inch, and meridian by meridian!

The icy spring water flows through your body, while the warm source soothes your meridians; the interplay of cold and heat creates a perfect balance.

As the excruciating pain in her body subsided and her disordered qi and blood gradually stabilized, Liu Erlong, who was on the verge of despair, finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

His tense body completely relaxed, entrusting his safety entirely to the boy before him.

She breathed softly, her gaze fixed entirely on Ao Yin, filled with complete trust and reliance.

"Thank you... Ao Yin."

"You must... save me from death."

Ao Yin's eyes were firm as he responded in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, with me here, the toxin will be eliminated, you'll be absolutely fine!"

At this moment, the spring water of the Yin-Yang duality spring gently ripples, and the ultimate Yin-Yang power flows slowly.
