Looking at the monster squirming in the ice in front of him, Chen Yanjun held his breath and tried to tell himself that this was the Xianwu Tang Dynasty, not some weird world.

If you look closely, there seems to be a black deformed worm in the frozen space.

At first glance, it looks like some kind of insect, but upon closer inspection, it has human characteristics. The bones are mutated, the muscles are twisted, and the blood vessels are exposed into various sticky spiral shapes.

The two big eyes are bright and bright, but they appear where they shouldn't.

The look was not only disgusting, but also a kind of sting that touched the human soul.

Especially a pair of big pale eyes, staring straight at Chen Yanjun, vaguely revealing a kind of compassion that only belongs to humans.

Even if it is frozen, this monster can still squirm slowly in the solid ice, but it can't break through the external seal.

Chen Yanjun was fascinated and asked subconsciously:

"Is this a newly discovered strange beast?"

"This is Fan Yu."

Fang Qunyu frowned slightly, turned to look at Chen Yanjun, and was particularly surprised by his calmness.

After all, it was difficult for him to suppress the shock and excitement like Chen Yanjun when he saw this monster for the first time.

"However, your talk about strange beasts inspired me... maybe it really has something to do with strange beasts."

In fact, Chen Yanjun just saw the shadow of Fan Yu in these big, bright eyes.

"Why did Fan Yu become like this?"

Fang Qunyu's eyes were dull and her expression was complicated. She turned around and poured a cup of hot tea. The tea still smelled of alcohol.

He did not pour tea for Chen Yanjun, but drank it himself while calming down.

"I have investigated Fan Yu's residence. He probably received a large amount of money and intended to harm you. Although he also took poisonous mushrooms in order to deceive your trust, he took a special antidote in advance."

Fan Yu intends to harm me?

Chen Yanjun's heart skipped a beat and he was a little scared.

As a time traveler, he is not afraid of monsters or demonic illusions, but he is afraid of someone trying to harm him.

And the action is done behind the back... The time traveler is afraid that someone will shoot a cold arrow from behind.

In addition, another ominous premonition slowly came to mind.

After eating the same mushroom, Fan Yu turned into a monster. Could he...

Seeing that Chen Yanjun finally became anxious, Fang Qunyu explained with a smile:

"The problem lies in the antidote, which speeds up the spread of poison."

"If I hadn't found Fan Yu's body in time and brought it back here, he might have turned into a man-eating monster."

It just speeds up the spread of poison... The more Chen Yanjun listened, the more uncomfortable he became.

"You mean, I also..."

Fang Qunyu shook his head, shook his head halfway, and suddenly nodded again, making Chen Yanjun's face turn pale with fright.

Then he said:

"This is a poison whose origin I cannot determine. It mainly affects the soul and Dantian. Fan Yu has become like this, but you are safe and sound."

Chen Yanjun quickly looked at the status bar of the add-dot panel.

[Status: Extraordinary physique, full of blood and essence.]

He clearly remembered that the first state after the panel appeared was: the poison had dissipated and there was no serious problem.

What exactly did he do to rid his body of toxins?

Fang Qunyu was also puzzled, and then took him to another hospital where the living bodies and corpses of spiritual beasts were stored.

"What's frozen here are bugs, spiritual beasts, and ordinary beasts that have been injected with Fan Yu's blood..."

"Signs of mild mutation similar to Fan Yu's were found in the spirit beasts."

Chen Yanjun couldn't help but guess that this poison was probably just a soul poison.

After the poison controls the soul, it forcibly drives the Dantian and distorts the human body.

The process of time travel is the process of the new soul forcibly occupying the old soul, and it is likely to destroy the poison that is occupying the old soul.

"Probably my mortal status saved my life."

Chen Yanjun said casually.

Fang Qunyu took a big sip of tea with the leaves attached and said:

"Ordinary beasts and bugs have not yet mutated, but they are all in an alternating state of coma and madness."

"It's understandable that you don't have a Dantian, but your soul can resist the poison. It's a strange thing."

Saying this, he suddenly thrust his rough, dark face in front of Chen Yanjun's handsome fair face.

"Let me ask you, on the day of the Cold Food Festival, when you were dying of poisoning... did you have any visions?"

Chen Yanjun's heart tightened.

The second most feared thing for a time traveler has come: being discovered by others as a time traveler, or being treated as someone who has occupied the dove's nest.

He explained calmly:

"There wasn't any special vision. I could only vaguely see a Five Fingers Mountain towering into the black mist. I tried hard to see the top of the mountain but couldn't see it... Later, I also discovered a similar vision in the demonic illusion."

Chen Yanjun wanted to rely on the majestic balance of the five elements to explain his buried talent.

Fang Qunyu frowned.

"Illusion of demonic energy... You, a mortal, can see demons... Wait, you said you have entered the third realm?"

Your reflex arc is long enough... Chen Yanjun nodded:

"Um."

Fang Qunyu held his wrist roughly.

"The marrow cleansing was successful. I am in the third level of Qi nourishment. My physique is actually better than that of a ninth-grade martial artist, just short of being a first-grade martial artist."

The more he talked, the more excited he became, and his eyes were as bright as seeing a unique experimental subject.

"Tell me, what is your demonic illusion?"

Chen Yanjun felt a little confused and said:

"I vaguely saw twelve giant beasts that I had never seen before coming to Chang'an, bringing twelve kinds of disasters, pollution of spiritual energy, loss of life, and even the collapse of buildings."

Fang Qunyu frowned and fell into deep thought.

This is the most dangerous doomsday scene in the demonic fantasy world. This kid is still alive and kicking. Is he mentally abnormal at all?

Moreover, is there a specific number of twelve?

Chen Yanjun continued:

"Later, when I was cleansing my marrow, I once again entered a similar illusion of demonic energy. I persisted all night, and at dawn I entered the third state of nourishing qi."

Fang Qunyu stared at Chen Yanjun for a long time, speechless.

Such a genius, he has only discovered it now!

Immediately, he raised his finger and poked it between Chen Yanjun's eyebrows.

He drew out a drop of blood essence, pondered for a long time, then looked at the mutated spiritual beast, gritting his teeth and not tasting it himself as usual.

"You have an extraordinary bearing. You don't seem to be someone who is deliberately hiding. Once you have gone through hell, the poison that cannot kill you actually makes your spirit stronger."

Chen Yanjun wiped his forehead smoothly.

"Have I been cleared of toxins?"

After some appraisal, Fang Qunyu shook his head and said:

"There are no more toxins in your blood."

"It may be that your special soul suppresses it and changes the poison, or even fuses the poison into a part of your soul."

"On the contrary, you borrowed the power of poison to invisibly strengthen your soul, and then you entered the third realm of nourishing qi as a mortal."

Chen Yanjun frowned, it seemed to make sense, but he felt something was wrong.

The traveler's soul shouldn't need any poison to enhance it, and more importantly, his body fluids and blood are not poisonous.

This means that when he and his wife practice dual cultivation in the future, the poison should not infect her, let alone pass it on to the next generation!

After Fang Qunyu said this, she took out a small packet of medicine from her sleeve and threw it to Chen Yanjun.

"This is a specially made tranquilizer. You can take one pill every ten days. It may be good for you."

or……

Chen Yanjun asked carefully:

"Isn't this thing almost as effective as Fan Yu's antidote?"
