- 65 Treating Fan Song Xue
Taking a deep breath to prepare herself, Fan Zhu Xia then waved her hand and several objects appeared beside her.
A refinery cauldron that was half her size with intricate, life-like carvings of phoenixes in flight throughout it’s body while the four corners where pillars held the cauldron up had four dragons with different appearances that wounded up and had their claws extended that seemingly held the cauldron up by it’s brim while their jaws opened up towards four individual openings as if about to breath fire while the rest was covered with a lid that had flowing clouds engraved on it with a lone phoenix with it’s wings spread majestically before curving forward, stood perched just at the edge of the cauldron with it’s head bowed and beak slightly open as if about to sing a beautiful song.
This was actually a high-grade, transcendent level artifact that was passed down generation after generation to the most promising individual who would most likely be the future head of the Cong Clan and just before she left for her last journey back then, her father; Cong Zhi Qiang who was the current head and patriarch of their clan had passed it down to her and told her to use it well and familiarize herself with it.
The first time she used it was before she left the clan with her father watching over her. What he didn’t tell her was that the refinery cauldron which was aptly called; Gods Amidst Floating Clouds Cauldron, has actually developed a form of sentience that before a person can use it, they must undergo a test and this test has been taken by all the previous heads of the clan, all the way to their ancestors.
This is actually why there isn’t a fixed first family and why there is no such thing as internal strife since every generation gets an equal chance to try the test. Before her, several youths had already tried their hands with it to see if they could pass the test when they turned sixteen but although some came close, they still failed at the end. The only consolation they got was that those who showed promise were given more resources and nurturing from the clan before all were sent off to travel with elite escorts of their own.
Looking at the other items she brought out, she then placed them on a nearby table and carefully laud them out. Most noticeable was her set of acupuncture needles as well as several jade chests that contained rare spirit and medicinal herbs.
Pausing for a second, Fan Zhu Xia thought deeply on her findings when she examined Fan Song Xue.
The poison that was used was almost the same as the poison that her clan was feared for; ‘The Immortal’s Decline’.
There is only a small difference with the effects of ‘The Immortal’s Decline’ and this particular poison which is; if what she remembers is correct, then it would be the most vicious poison that her mother’s clan; The Zhan Clan is known for which is called ‘The Eternal Damnation’.
With ‘The Immortal’s Decline’; it would slowly eat at one’s cultivation until it turns the person into a total waste, destroying even the person’s dantian once it reaches it’s late stages and it’s at this stage that curing the poison would practically be impossible and the worst part is that it doesn’t stop there. Once the dantian is crippled and destroyed beyond repair, the poison will then move on to consuming every last traces of qi in the body and as a side effect, this will cause premature aging on the poison’s host thus accelerating the body’s deterioration which will inevitably result with death.
On the other hand, ‘The Eternal Damnation’ which works in a somewhat similar way to ‘The Immortal’s Decline’ in such that it also eats away at the person’s cultivation but it’s effects are wholle different. The higher the individual’s cultivation is, the more painful the poison will be for them since it uses the person’s qi as an anchor and the level of purity and power to strengthen the potency of the poison. In a prolonged state, the poison will slowly seep into the person’s body; into their bloodstream, their muscle, bones and at the most painful and dangerous place; their meridians and dantian. The only positive thing about this is that although the poison has no cure, her mother; Zhan Mei Ling managed to develop a way to extract the poison from the body of the person afflicted with it. The only down side to it is that the treatment involved is quite taxing and painful which applies even more so if the poison has been left untreated in the body for a longer time since it would be harder to extract and harder to cure since during the course of the treatment, succumbing to death due to the immense pain and torture of the extraction process is quite probable.
This was her main concern with Fan Song Xue right now.
Even though he was placed under the effects of a stasis seal and his bodily functions had slowed down to the barest minimum, the poison still resided in his body for over a decade and when the seal was broken earlier, the poison immediately reacted as if a bloodthirsty beast going on a rampage.

Right now, all she could do was try to supplement and reinforce the strength of Fan Song Xue’s body and try to wake him up since she will need him conscious to help her during the treatment, with him fighting against it’s effects despite the pain that will cause while she slowly extracts them from his body.
First things first, she made her way towards her refinery cauldron and started opening the jade chests were the herbs were. What she planned to do first was refine a pill called Absolute Purging Pill.
As the name suggests, the Absolute Purging Pill will purge all harmful substances in a person’s body and this includes poisons, impure or negative qi such as death qi or demonic qi as well as substances imbibed by the body due to a person’s environment that affects one’s physique in a negative way.
With this pill, extracting the poison should be easier, her only problem as of now whas if Fan Song Xue can actually survive it.
