Xiao Wenjie and Guan Tianshui returned to Linyuan Academy and went straight to the dean's office area. Guan Tianshui had been injured by the flas of a Bursting Red Tiger and needed imdiate treatnt.
The academy's upcoming wilderness activity would have to be postponed. This Fire Poison was a type of heat toxin that could only be neutralized by an extrely cold Ice Attribute substance.
It was a testant to his strength that he could suppress it. Had it been soone at the Four Vein Realm, they would have been utterly unable to contain the Fire Poison and would likely be dead by now.
"Brother Tianshui, this Ice Attribute antidote is proving quite difficult to find. Although the academy has so Water Elent Elixirs, they'll have little effect on the Fire Poison in your system.
Perhaps I should make a trip to the Imperial City. What if we hold the wilderness activity after I get back from the Imperial City with the antidote for the Fire Poison?" Xiao Wenjie asked Guan Tianshui.
"This wilderness activity is crucial for the academy. I don't want to delay it for too long because of ," Guan Tianshui said. "This Fire Poison is potent, but I can still suppress it. I can hold on until the activity is over."
Xiao Wenjie glanced at Guan Tianshui and said, "I know exactly what you're thinking. I'm sure you *could* suppress it until then, but have you considered the consequences? By that ti, the Fire Poison will have entered your Heart Vein, and getting rid of it will be even more difficult.
Not only will your strength undoubtedly decline, but your life will be in danger if you don't absorb a rare Ice Attribute Elixir or Magic Crystal."
"I know my own body. It's not as serious as you think, so don't worry," Guan Tianshui said. "Besides, a trip to the Imperial City isn't a one or two-day affair. It's not even certain you'll be able to find the elixir. We're talking about an elixir that's at least Fifth or Sixth Grade. There might not be many of those even in the Imperial City."
Guan Tianshui's face was terribly pale, and beads of sweat dripped continuously from his forehead to the floor. Seeing this, Xiao Wenjie grew extrely worried.
"Enough. Don't say any more. My mind is made up," Xiao Wenjie said. "I'll set out shortly. I'm sure I can be back within half a month at most."
"Brother Xiao, thank you! I have no regrets following you in this life! Don't worry, I'll wait for you to co back!" Guan Tianshui was slightly moved.
"We're brothers. Why are you being so formal?" Xiao Wenjie said. "If our roles were reversed and I was the one who was injured, I believe you would do the sa and make the trip to the Imperial City for ."
Guan Tianshui fell silent. He gazed at the distant sky, seemingly lost in thought. After a long mont, he said, "By the way, we've been gone for so long. I wonder how Ye Tian is doing in the Gravity Chamber. If I'm going to be recuperating, I'd like to go to the Gravity Chamber as well.
The imnse pressure inside might slow the spread of the Fire Poison. Why don't you go check on him? I'm really curious about that kid, and I have high hopes for him."
"Wait here. I'll be right back!" After speaking, Xiao Wenjie's figure flashed, and he vanished from the spot.
He returned just as quickly. "Ye Tian isn't in the Gravity Chamber anymore. He must have left. I'll ask Yaoyao about him now. How about I have her bring him over?"
"Excellent. I'll go suppress this Fire Poison for now. If Ye Tian cos, bring him to ," Guan Tianshui said, then slowly walked toward the Gravity Chamber.
Xiao Wenjie then took out an antique-looking mirror. He channeled a sliver of Spiritual Power from his palm into it, and the mirror imdiately flashed with a white light.
Xiao Wenjie then spoke to the mirror, "Yaoyao, where is Ye Tian? We're back. Bring him to now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the light on the mirror converged into a single beam and shot out, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
anwhile, Xiao Yaoyao was in the superior class office area, handling the academy's daily affairs. A silver bracelet on her wrist suddenly began to glow.
The sudden light startled her. She quickly stopped what she was doing, took off the bracelet, and channeled a stream of Spiritual Power into it.
An image soon projected from the bracelet, along with Xiao Wenjie's words. The image vanished after a few breaths, but she now understood what Xiao Wenjie had told her.
What Xiao Wenjie had used was the academy's unique Mirror Image Transmission. It was typically reserved for exceptionally important matters. Knowing the urgency, Xiao Yaoyao imdiately went to find Ye Tian.
At that mont, Ye Tian was in a private room in the teaching building, deep in his Cultivation. His room was one of the last few available, and Zhang Xinlan, Qin Xiaowan, and Ye Feifei were in the adjacent rooms.
It took Xiao Yaoyao a while to find Ye Tian. "Ye Tian, co with to the dean's area right now. My father needs to see you!"
Seeing Xiao Yaoyao enter his private room, Ye Tian didn't ask any questions and imdiately left with her.
It was only when they were on their way that he asked, "Yaoyao, what's going on? You seem to be in a hurry."
"I don't know either, but it must be urgent. Otherwise, my father wouldn't have used the Mirror Image Transmission to contact ," Xiao Yaoyao said. "Let's just hurry. We'll find out when we get there."
The two soon arrived at the dean's area, where Xiao Wenjie was waiting anxiously for Ye Tian. In truth, he was also eager to know if Ye Tian had achieved a breakthrough in the private room during this ti.
Ye Tian's rate of improvent was staggering, and he was certain to have made progress in the Gravity Chamber. That, combined with Xiao Wenjie's own urgency to leave for the Imperial City to find an elixir for Guan Tianshui, only heightened his anticipation.
"Father, I've brought Ye Tian. What's wrong? You seem very anxious," Xiao Yaoyao asked.
"Our trip to the Demon Beast Region to hunt High Tier Demon Beasts was going smoothly until we ran into a Tier Five Bursting Red Tiger. Your Uncle Guan was injured. I need to go to the Imperial City to get an elixir for him.
However, he wanted to see how you were doing while he recuperates. In his eyes, Ye Tian, you are the student the academy is most focused on cultivating. Perhaps seeing your progress will give him more confidence to suppress the Fire Poison," Xiao Wenjie explained.
Ye Tian was slightly taken aback. From what Xiao Wenjie said, Guan Tianshui's injury must be severe. 'I wonder what kind of elixir is needed to cure this Fire Poison,' he thought. 'I should have so elixirs in my Storage Ring that might help.'
He was confident that the elixirs in his Storage Ring were no weaker than those found in the Imperial City. He asked, "Dean Xiao, what type of elixir are you going to the Imperial City for?"
"An Ice Attribute Elixir. Fire Poison can only be neutralized by an Ice Attribute Elixir," Xiao Wenjie said. "Dean Guan is waiting for you in the Gravity Chamber now. Yaoyao, take him there quickly. I'm leaving for the Imperial City."
"Wait! Dean Xiao, are you saying that as long as there's a sufficient Ice Attribute Elixir, Dean Guan can be saved? In that case, could a sufficient amount of Profound Ice Elent Particles also neutralize it?" Ye Tian asked hurriedly.
Xiao Wenjie was startled by Ye Tian's question, not understanding why he would ask such a thing. He stared at him and asked, "Why do you ask that? Don't tell you have an Ice Attribute Elixir or Magic Crystal on you?"
