Huang Shi was exceedingly straightforward, pouring out all the essence blood from the porcelain bottle.
Chu Nan sniffed the air slightly at this scene, realizing these were actually the essence blood of Divine Illumination Realm demon beasts!
As the demon beast essence blood merged into the array, the entire array glowed blood-red, transforming into mist and seeping into Zhi Ruo through his seven orifices.
The once wildly struggling Zhi Ruo gradually calmed down, the scarlet in his eyes slowly faded, and a trace of clarity appeared in his gaze.
"What... what happened to me?"
"I remember I was dueling with Zhi Qingge, hissing~ so painful!"
Zhi Ruo's eyes were clear, looking around blankly, soon sensing the pain emanating from his body.
Spears were still piercing his body, making him unable to move, each motion accompanied by excruciating pain.
"It worked!" Yet, no one cared if he was in pain; Zhi Qingyu rejoiced at seeing Zhi Ruo regain clarity.
Huang Shi let out a sigh of relief and said to Ge Bai, "Mission accomplished."
Ge Bai, relieved as well, looked at Zhi Changmei and asked, "Senior, are you satisfied with the result?"
Zhi Changmei stared intently at Zhi Ruo, not allowing anyone to release him, and instead asked Zhi Jiang, "What do you think?"
Zhi Jiang frowned, scrutinizing Zhi Ruo, and noticed his state was even better than at the start of the duel.
"He seems to have genuinely regained clarity," Zhi Jiang said, somewhat incredulous.
The martial artists in the stands exploded in excitement witnessing the scene. Could it be that the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall had truly succeeded in resolving the demonic blood flaw that had plagued the Zhi family for countless years, bringing them both greatness and downfall?
"Great, now I won't have to live in constant fear anymore!"
"Even if the demonic blood never bursts, the flaw always persists, the higher the cultivation, the more dangerous it gets, causing many of us Zhi Family martial artists to dare not cultivate, now all that can finally end."
"What a pity, what a pity, if the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall had come sooner, my parents wouldn't have had to die."
...
For a moment, everyone was discussing, some even shedding tears of joy.
Ge Bai was extremely satisfied with the result, looking at Zhi Changmei and asking, "Senior, are you satisfied?"
Zhi Changmei, seeing no flaws, nodded in agreement.
In his heart, cooperating with the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall was clearly more promising than Chu Nan's prospects. After all, the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall was a formidable force, and resolving the demonic blood flaw, the two powers combined could easily take Mosen Province.
Then, using Mosen Province as a base, they could counterattack the Qin Kingdom, seeking revenge for the Zhi family's past massacre!
Seeing this, Zhi Qingyu joyously questioned Chu Nan directly, "Chu Nan, what else do you have to say now?"
Ge Bai also closed in on Chu Nan, "Chu Nan, it's time to settle accounts for killing my Blood Spring Hall's martial artists."
With Zhi Changmei acknowledging the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall's success, he naturally abandoned Chu Nan.
And Ge Bai's intention to confront Chu Nan wasn't stopped by Zhi Changmei either, for family heads of such prominent families, individuals who couldn't bring benefits held no value.
They wouldn't act for a mere acquaintance, especially one with no value.
Facing Ge Bai's approach, the pressure from a Cloud Sea Realm martial artist made Zhi Qingge intensely worried about Chu Nan.
Chu Nan remained calm, slowly responding, "Is mere clarity enough? Why not let Zhi Ruo unleash the power of the demonic blood?"
These words made Zhi Changmei open his eyes, looking at Zhi Ruo trapped on the ground.
Zhi Qingge's face flashed with delight, while Zhi Qingyu's expression changed drastically, "Chu Nan, are you still struggling in vain?"
Ge Bai sneered, "Chu Nan, having even brought back the frenzied Zhi Ruo, do you think we'd fear a second outburst of demonic blood's power?"
Chu Nan stared directly at Ge Bai, showing no signs of backing down, "Then let Zhi Ruo give it a try."
Ge Bai wanted to speak, but Zhi Changmei had already taken action. A wave of his hand removed the spears from Zhi Ruo's body, then commanded, "Zhi Ruo, unleash the power of the demonic blood, and I will not let you stop until I tell you to!"
Witnessing this, Ge Bai and Zhi Qingyu's expressions turned grim, while Huang Shi seemed reluctant to speak.
Zhi Qingge and Zhi Jiang's eyes brimmed with hope, while Chu Nan maintained a spectator's demeanor.
Zhi Ruo was utterly bewildered by the situation; as his consciousness returned, he naturally understood the harm of unleashing demonic blood. But faced with the command of the Zhi family's three ancestors, he didn't dare to disobey, so he immediately unleashed the demonic blood.
With the explosion of demonic blood power, Zhi Ruo stood still, awaiting the passage of time.
One incense stick, two incense sticks, three incense sticks...
Zhi Qingyu's solemn face lit up with a smile, "Hahaha, three incense sticks have passed, and Zhi Ruo remains clear. Huang Shi has completely eradicated the demonic blood flaw!"
Huang Shi breathed a sigh of relief as Ge Bai viciously glared at Chu Nan, "Given the situation, what more do you have to say?"
"Why not keep watching?" Chu Nan's mouth suddenly curved into a slight smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhi Ruo, who had been standing still, suddenly roared and, like a frenzied beast, charged toward Ge Bai with an even more insane demeanor than before.
"Bastard, how can this be!" Ge Bai was furious, full of resentment, retaliating with a palm to pin Zhi Ruo to the ground mid-air.
Zhi Ruo's eyes were bloodshot, his features twisted, with no trace of the previous clarity remaining.
This scene silenced the once-excited martial artists in the stands; Zhi Ruo's renewed madness doused them like a cold water splash.
Ge Bai angrily questioned Huang Shi, "The array deduced by the Hall Master couldn't have a problem, what have you done!"
Huang Shi, flustered, replied, "It's just a simplified version, maybe that's why it can't fully function..."
Zhi Qingyu gritted his teeth; Zhi Ruo's return to madness undoubtedly placed him in a passive position.
Having initially sided with Zhi Qingyu, Zhi Changmei once again turned to Chu Nan, "Chu Nan, young friend, what do you think?"
Chu Nan's smile remained confident, "I'll say it again, with a snap of my fingers, I can restore Zhi Ruo to normal, with no recurrence forever!"
Upon hearing this, Ge Bai was furious; even he wouldn't dare make such an outrageous promise, yet Chu Nan, a mere Divine Illumination Realm dared to promise?
"Chu Nan, don't boast!" Ge Bai gritted his teeth in rage.
Chu Nan stepped closer to Ge Bai, giving no ground, "Whether true or false, try and you'll know."
Zhi Changmei also spoke at this moment, "Ge Bai, let young friend Chu Nan give it a try."
Ge Bai showed a hint of reluctance, but ultimately grit his teeth, "Fine, I don't believe that a mere Divine Illumination Realm can resolve a problem even a Cloud Sea Realm can't solve."
With those words, a sly smile appeared at the corner of Ge Bai's mouth as he released Zhi Ruo from his bindings, letting him charge at Chu Nan.
A frenzied Zhi Ruo was comparable to an eighth-stage Divine Illumination Realm martial artist, despite the difficulty it posed even for a ninth-stage to suppress, Ge Bai wanted Chu Nan to make a fool of himself to curb his arrogant demeanor.
