Chapter 1646 Two completely different people
The vehicle drove out of the city, passed through several hidden side roads, and finally entered a seemingly ordinary industrial park.
But after passing through several checkpoints and verifying multiple identities, they finally entered a secret military base deep underground.
The base was brightly lit and heavily guarded, with the air thick with disinfectant and a tense atmosphere.
As soon as Mingchuan got out of the car, he keenly sensed that the base had an extremely high level of protection and seemed to have been activated only recently.
He looked at Yong Gu and said in a deep voice, "You... deliberately found a place in Tianhai just to wait for me?"
Yonggu nodded, his voice low: "The Wolf King of the Northern Frontier is in a special situation and should not be moved long distances. This place is relatively safe and closest to you."
He paused, then added, "We've been waiting for you for seven days."
Seven days!
Mingchuan's heart skipped a beat.
Given the identity and physical condition of the Wolf King of the Northern Frontier, he had secretly waited for him here for seven days!
This means that the Wolf King of the Northern Frontier might be in a worse situation than he imagined, and Yonggu and the others only placed their hopes on this uncertain factor because they had no other choice.
He couldn't imagine the pain this tough man had endured during those seven days!
"Take me there quickly!"
Yong Gu said no more and led Ming Chuan through several quiet corridors to a heavy alloy door.
After another rigorous biometric and password verification, the door slid open silently.
The room behind the door is a state-of-the-art intensive care unit, where various sophisticated medical instruments emit regular ticking sounds.
The air was filled with an even stronger smell of disinfectant and a faint, chilling energy fluctuation.
Mingchuan's gaze instantly locked onto the hospital bed in the center of the room.
There lay a wolf king from the northern frontier who should have been a tall and strong man, but now he was emaciated and looked like a ghost.
His face was an abnormal bluish-gray, as if shrouded in death; his lips were dry, cracked, and purple; his breathing was weak and rapid; and his chest rose and fell only very slightly.
On the exposed skin, one can vaguely see some twisted, dark purple patterns that wriggle slowly like living things, emanating a faint, eerie aura that is the same as the sinister techniques of the cultivation world.
Compared to the Wolf King of the Northern Frontier in Mingchuan's memory, the man before him was almost unrecognizable!
All that remained was weakness and near death from the torment of illness.
Even Mingchuan's heart clenched painfully at the sight.
He strode to the bedside, and without even exchanging pleasantries, he extended his fingers and gently placed them on the wrist of the Northern Frontier Wolf King.
A wisp of extremely fine and pure nascent soul spiritual energy, like the most sensitive probe, carefully probed into the body of the Northern Frontier Wolf King.
The moment the spiritual energy entered, Mingchuan's expression darkened instantly.
Within the meridians of the Northern Frontier Wolf King, an extremely insidious and domineering power is raging wildly!
This force not only eroded his vitality and froze his blood and qi, but also continuously devoured his original soul power!
Although the Northern Frontier Wolf King was struggling to maintain its strength and will, forming a thin layer of resistance, it was like a candle flickering in the wind, retreating step by step in the face of that strange poison.
His internal organs were covered in frost, and his vitality was rapidly fading away.
Mingchuan's expression changed.
"How could someone who cultivates the power of ice let his internal organs be frozen solid?!"
Yong Gu clenched his fists, unsure how to respond.
Mingchuan sighed and continued his investigation.
What alarmed him even more was that the energy properties of this toxin were extremely strange and of a very high level, making it incredibly difficult to deal with!
The person who administered the poison must possess extraordinary cultivation and understanding of the art of poison.
"Well, do you have a solution?" Yong Gu stood to the side, his expression still cold, but his clenched fists and slightly tense jawline betrayed his inner tension.
Mingchuan slowly withdrew his hand, his tone solemn.
"The situation is very bad. The toxin has penetrated deep into the internal organs and is even beginning to erode the soul. This is a complex and extremely potent poison that combines the properties of extreme cold and soul poison, making it extremely domineering and insidious."
The person who poisoned me was aiming to kill me, and... their strength is probably no less than that of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
He took a deep breath, a resolute glint in his eyes: "However, there's still hope! I need to expel the poison from him immediately; we can't delay any longer!"
Upon hearing this, Yong Gu's eyes suddenly blazed with hope.
"What do you need? All the resources here are at your disposal!"
Mingchuan shook his head: "The spiritual energy here is thin, and the equipment is interfering, making it difficult to exert our full strength. I'm taking the Northern Frontier Wolf King to a place. You stay outside and keep watch, making sure no one disturbs us!"
Although Yonggu did not know where Mingchuan was taking the Wolf King of the Northern Frontier, he had absolute trust in Mingchuan and immediately nodded emphatically upon hearing this.
"Okay! Don't worry, with me here, no one will bother you!"
He then turned and left the room.
Seeing this, Mingchuan no longer hesitated.
He gently placed one hand on the chest of the Northern Frontier Wolf King, while holding the Burning Heaven Ancient Jade in his arms with the other.
With a thought, the ancient jade flashed with a faint light, and an invisible spatial fluctuation instantly enveloped him and the Wolf King of the Northern Frontier.
In the next instant, the two figures vanished into thin air from the intensive care unit.
The scenery before my eyes changes in an instant.
It is no longer a ward filled with the smell of disinfectant, but a private space filled with spiritual energy, like a fairyland.
The sky is high and clear, the spring flows gently, and exotic flowers and rare herbs dot the landscape; this is the core secret realm within the Burning Heaven Ancient Jade.
Just as Mingchuan appeared with the Wolf King of the Northern Frontier, two figures swiftly approached like ghosts.
Lingxu Zhenren and Qingmianhu.
During their time cultivating in the secret realm, their strength and cultivation had become much more stable than before.
Sensing that Mingchuan had suddenly entered with an extremely decaying aura containing potent poison, they immediately rushed over.
"Young friend, this is..."
Master Lingxu immediately noticed the dying Northern Frontier Wolf King in Mingchuan's arms and sensed the chilling, vicious poison emanating from it, causing his white eyebrows to furrow.
The blue-faced fox twitched its nose, and a look of surprise appeared on its foxy face.
"What a potent poison! It's a mixture of the essence of Xuanbing and the aura of Soul-Eating Grass, along with several other insidious ingredients that even I can't identify... This is definitely not a human-made method!"
"Who is this person? How did he come to be poisoned by such a strange toxin?"
"There's no time to explain in detail. This is our Dragon Kingdom's general, who was ambushed by villains from the cultivation world." Ming Chuan spoke rapidly, carefully placing the Northern Frontier Wolf King on a soft patch of spiritual grass. "This poison has already invaded his heart and soul. Ordinary methods of expelling poison are unlikely to be effective and are prone to backlash. Senior Lingxu, you are knowledgeable and experienced; do you have any good solutions?"
Master Lingxu bent down, his fingertips glowing with a clear light, and gently examined the condition of the Northern Frontier Wolf King, his expression growing increasingly solemn.
"The toxins, like threads, have become entangled with life force. Forcibly removing them may damage the very foundation and could even accelerate the toxins' eruption..."
