The fall of his two colleagues made him realize that although he had taken the poison seriously enough, it was still far from enough.
He knew that he had tried everything and it was impossible to develop an antidote in a short time.
The only hope is to exchange ideas with other alchemy practitioners and find inspiration, but all the alchemy practitioners of the same level have fallen, leaving only a bunch of scum who are only thinking about making money.
This cannot be blamed on them. After all, those who choose the path of alchemy practice do so to make money, and I am no different from them.
Those who dreamed of saving the world by practicing medicine and held on to ridiculous and moldy idealism have all become medical practitioners and are now under house arrest in Taiming Mountain.
Perhaps if he were given a few more months, he would be able to find a new antidote independently, but Shenzhou couldn't wait any longer.
Before the antidote appears, all the monks in Shenzhou will die completely.
Medical help is necessary!
Huang Dahao suppressed his years of disgust towards medical practitioners and suddenly became determined in his goal.
(2/2)
94. Poison without an antidote (4)
The sky was covered with haze.
On the way to Taiming Sect, Huang Dahao saw low-level monks fighting each other to the point of bleeding in order to snatch ineffective elixirs.
I saw the child holding his unconscious parents, at a loss, his face covered with poisonous blood from the blood blisters bursting from his parents' bodies.
The streets were in chaos as panic-stricken people ran all over the place. Everyone's eyes were filled with fear and panic.
Huang Dahao had seen wars among monks and was accustomed to life and death, but this scene was even more shocking than a war with real swords and guns.
Finally, Taiming Sect's barrier appeared in sight.
Looking at the monks from Taiming Sect guarding the barrier in front of him, Huang Dahao hesitated and didn't know how to start.
"I am Huang Dahuo, the elder of Mingyang Sect. Please open the barrier. I have something important to discuss with the doctor of Lingyin Valley."
"Danxian? Huang Xiaodan?" The head of Xingluo Peak looked at Huang Dahao in surprise, "Why are you here? But it's impossible to open this barrier, no matter who comes."
"Shenzhou is in danger and urgently needs medical help!" Huang Dahao said urgently.
"It's useless for you to tell me this. Was it Emperor Jing who sent you here?" the leader of Xingluo Peak asked back.
"No..." Huang Dahao said with a stiff face.
"The emperor won't let us out, so what's the point of you coming to us? You know it's not that we don't want to help you," the leader of Xingluo Peak sighed.
"An epidemic broke out in Shenzhou, and countless people died. You can't just sit there and do nothing, right?" Huang Dahuo was sweating profusely. "The emperor is stubborn... but you can at least teach me how to deal with the epidemic and save the people of this world! Please let me meet the person in charge of Lingyin Valley!"
"So you're trying to get something for nothing?" The leader of Xingluo Peak smiled. "It's not that we don't want to help you, but the person in charge of Lingyin Valley has been captured by your emperor a long time ago... Yiqin hasn't returned yet, and her life or death is unknown. Even if we want to help you, we have the will but not the strength."
"..."
"Instead of coming to find me, you might as well go find where Yiqin is," the leader of Xingluo Peak waved his hand, "She's stupid, you don't even need to blackmail her morally, she will definitely help you."
After being rejected, Huang Dahao turned around helplessly.
He knew that what Emperor Jing had done this time was too ruthless, but Yiqin had lost the face of Emperor Jing in public, and Emperor Jing was an emperor who cared a lot about his reputation, so he hated Yiqin to the core.
As long as Emperor Jing does not back down, the conflict between the two sides will never be resolved, and the medical practitioners will not be able to help.
Emperor Jing has always been stubborn and would never compromise.
"Wait!"
A voice behind him suddenly called out to Huang Dahao.
The head of Xingluo Peak looked at him with disgust and said, "Yiqin left a message. If anyone comes to ask for help, tell them... to use drugs to keep them alive first, but don't use pills that enhance spiritual power. Use biological agents and physical methods that won't affect spiritual power. For example, assisted breathing, cardiac pacing, and injection of adrenaline."
Huang was overjoyed and quickly took note of it.
"Also, coughing is a symptom of infection with this virus. Those who cough should be isolated first, and healthy people should stay at home. This can effectively prevent the spread of the virus and reduce the subsequent treatment materials and workload. Even if there is no antidote in the end, at least a few people can survive."
After the leader of Xingluo Peak finished speaking, he waved his hand with an extremely impatient expression: "Thanks to Yiqin for being so stupid. If it were me, I wouldn't care about your life or death. I'd rather everyone die with that stupid emperor!"
"What about the antidote? All of this can only delay time!" Huang Dahao asked hurriedly.
"Even if Yiqin is not in Lingyin Valley, the most important research and development force is not here. How can I give you my head to research the antidote?" The leader of Xingluo Peak glanced at Huang Dahuo with disdain, "Thank your majesty, we will die together, Shenzhou is finished."
After leaving Lingyin Valley, Huang Dahao still felt upset.
Without an antidote, even if one's life could be temporarily saved, it would only be a slow death.
At this moment when all the lives in China were racing against time, Emperor Jing was determined to suppress the chance of survival.
Perhaps if his two colleagues had not fallen, he would have viewed this incident as an opportunity to make money just like Emperor Jing... But the fall of the two strongest alchemists in Shenzhou made him realize that he had become the last line of defense for Shenzhou.
However, this last line of defense of his had no countermeasure against this unknown toxin, and he didn't even have any idea of how to solve it.
No more delay!
Now the whole world is looking at him eagerly, waiting for him to come up with a solution... The huge pressure he is carrying and the clear awareness of his own inadequacies make him unable to endure it any longer!
He can't take it anymore!
Whether it means death or anything else, he doesn't want to become the sinner who will be cursed by future generations!
Go and curse the emperor!
I can no longer carry this burden on myself, I have to pass it on to others!
Huang Dahuo strode towards the palace with big strides.
"...Continue to increase the publicity of the Shenzhou Cup. I want to make this Shenzhou Cup final in Jiangdu more grand than any previous one!"
When Huang Dahao met Emperor Jing, he was discussing matters related to the Shenzhou Cup with a minister beside him.
Huang Dahao's mentality collapsed at that time.
"The Shenzhou Cup must be stopped!" Huang Dahao said, suppressing his anger.
"Impossible." Emperor Jing looked unhappy and answered decisively.
"Your Majesty! Please go outside the palace and take a look!" Huang Dahuo strode forward and said sadly, "In a few days, all your people will die!"
"Is it that serious?" Emperor Jing was slightly surprised. "Just now, the memorial reported that the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the situation is stable. I also praised the officials in charge of the government offices."
Peace and prosperity? Stable situation?!
Huang Dahahuo almost died of anger.
These bastards have absolutely no shame in trying to take credit!
Huang Dahao took out his recording crystal and played the images he had recorded on the road.
Emperor Jing looked at the hellish scene on earth with an expression of disbelief.
After watching it, Emperor Jing sighed and said, "Then it would be better to hold a wonderful Shenzhou Cup to appease the people."
Huang Dahuo: “???”
"You don't understand," Emperor Jing shook his head, "Only if you sit in my position will you understand what is more important."
"But the people..."
"It's not the life or death of the people that matters," Emperor Jing interrupted. "Even if all the people are alive, if they are no longer my subjects, they might as well die."
"..."
In an instant, Huang Dahao seemed to fully understand the deep despair and powerlessness Yiqin felt when facing himself and Emperor Jing.
"cough……"
Emperor Jing's cough suddenly woke Huang Dahao up.
At this moment, the cough of the person in front of him seemed to be his savior.
He suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and handed a treatment report to Emperor Jing.
"This is the summary of the treatment given to the leader of the Jinlei Sect before Dan Sheng fell. Your Majesty, please take a look."
"What's so good about this kind of thing?" Emperor Jing said impatiently.
"The leader of the Jinlei Sect is dead, and his death was tragic," Huang Dahuo said in a deep voice, "and it all started with a cough..."
Finally, Emperor Jing's expression changed.
(1/3)
95. It's Qingyi
A trace of panic emerged in Emperor Jing's eyes.
He tried to calm down and looked through the treatment record carefully.
"Well, to be honest with you, I have had a slight cough recently..." Emperor Jing looked at Huang Dahao and said hesitantly.
"May I ask how advanced your Majesty's cultivation is now?" Huang Dahao did not ask about the illness, but instead asked about Emperor Jing's cultivation.
"The peak of the Venerable Realm." Emperor Jing replied.
"Your Majesty is able to manage state affairs while not neglecting your own cultivation. This is truly admirable," Huang Dahuo looked at Emperor Jing with sympathy. "But this time, the poison is spreading from top to bottom. According to existing statistics, it takes about five days for a Venerable to fall into a coma, five to six days for the Seven Lights realm, six to seven days for the Six Combinations realm, and six to eight days for the Five Elements realm... After falling into a coma, the poisoned person's spiritual power begins to dissipate, their meridians wither, their organs quickly fail, their blood vessels rupture and bleed profusely, and even their souls begin to decay. They are usually on the verge of death within a day."
"And it all started with a cough. The initial symptoms were just a normal cough."
After Huang Dahao finished speaking, Emperor Jing stood up suddenly.
"May I ask how many days your Majesty has been coughing?" Huang Dahao continued to ask.
"Two days," Emperor Jing said with a trembling voice.
"For a cultivator, coughing is very abnormal, especially since your majesty has reached the peak of the Venerable Realm," Huang Dahuo analyzed enthusiastically for Emperor Jing, "It seems that your majesty has also been infected with this epidemic."
"Then what should I do?" Emperor Jing held Huang Dahuo's shoulder and glared at him murderously, "Antidote? You are an elixir immortal, you must have an antidote, right?"
"If I had, Li Zuanming and Liu Jinting would not have lay down," Huang Dahao shook his head helplessly.
"Can you develop an antidote within three days? No matter what conditions you put forward, I will fully cooperate! I will use all the power of the whole country to help you develop an antidote!" Emperor Jing said sternly, "No matter whether it is the royal alchemy cultivator or any other alchemy cultivator, I will let them help you!"
"Impossible. Even if there are ten times more alchemy practitioners, they still can't figure it out," Huang Dahuo said bluntly. "Three years is enough."
"Then can you help me hang on for three years?"
"I can only keep you alive for one day at most."
"..."
Emperor Jing fell onto the dragon throne with a thud.
What is more torturous than death is knowing that you only have three days to live, especially for him.
He still has endless achievements to accomplish and vast territories waiting for him to conquer.
He wanted to live as long as the heavens and become the greatest emperor in human history... How could he die here?!
"There is one last way," Huang Dahao suddenly said.
Emperor Jing quickly widened his eyes and sat up suddenly: "Hurry up and tell me! As long as my life can be saved, I am willing to pay any price!"
"Ask the doctor for help."
Emperor Jing froze for a moment, and the murderous intent in his heart seemed like thousands of sharp blades piercing towards Huang Dahao.
"Are you asking me to bow to the rebels? Besides," Emperor Jing held the sword in his hand, "how can medical practitioners solve the problems that alchemists can't solve? Are you admitting that you are not as good as medical practitioners?"
Huang Dahuo, however, took a step forward without fear and looked into Emperor Jing's eyes: "Every profession has its own specialty. If Your Majesty continues to be hostile to medical practitioners, whether it is Shenzhou, Dasiguo, or Your Majesty, they will all be destroyed."
"Is there no other way?" Emperor Jing was unwilling.
"No."
"Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't," Emperor Jing was furious, "Immediately summon all the alchemists in the country to the palace! If anyone can cure my stubborn disease, I will reward him handsomely!"
"That's enough!" Huang Dahuo was also completely furious. "It's already this hour and you still care about your broken face! I am the strongest alchemist in the whole Shenzhou! No one can do what I can't do! If you keep on wasting time, you will die! I don't give a f*ckin' care!"
Huang Dahao suddenly took off the mask of his protective suit, and in anger he spit all over Emperor Jing's face.
"You...are you going to rebel too?" Emperor Jing drew his sword in anger and put it on Huang Dahao's neck.
"You can kill me or chop me up as you please! I've had enough of this, you become the eternal sinner! I'm done with this! You useless tyrant, ugh!"
Huang Dahao spat a mouthful of phlegm on Emperor Jing's face.
With his status, he was not afraid of Emperor Jing, and he had the hidden sect to rely on behind him... Even the Grand Siguo could not do anything to him.
