Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 267: Exchanging Lives for Lives
Tang Xiu was well aware that taking care of Tang Yunde would greatly deplete her mental strength. In particular, the removal of the gray matter blocking his mind and his brain ventricles, as well as the coagulated mass of blood, would require the complete coordination of his star power and his spiritual senses. He is required to stay focused all the time, controlling the input of his star power and his spiritual sense. Overall, the task itself is a huge necessity.
Success meant that Tang Yunde would wake up and survive, and failure would result in his death.
Disappointing her mother was something she never wanted. After all, for twenty years he had suffered, and the good days he had always hoped for with great difficulty, were approaching. Even if she had to dare to face danger, Tang Xiu had to try his hardest.
Instantly piercing the silver needle on the acupoint in the middle of Tang Yunde's head, Tang Xiu's finger clamped the needle and carefully inserted his star power into the acupuncture point. Along with the star power injection, he guided his star power to enter Tang Yunde's brain. The coagulated blood had to be cleaned first, and the food to repair Tang Yunde's brain nerves had to start afterward as well. Then he could remove the gray substance slowly.
A thread, a silk-like star style, under the control of Tang Xiu's spiritual senses, slowly seeped into the coagulated blood. It penetrated and recovered as the process repeated itself. Every time he took back the power of the stars and his spiritual senses, a coagulated trail of blood was ejected.
Time pass.
Tang Xiu's mental strength had been concentrated to its limit, carrying blood that froze many times. An hour passed and a fifth of the coagulated blood had been removed. Soon after, Tang Xiu recovered his star power and spiritual sense and quickly took out a silver needle over Tang Yunde's head. He then released his spiritual senses to seep into the brain once again, enveloping the coagulated blood and extracting a little more.
Next, he pierced the silver needle again in an instant, started the same procedure earlier, and cleared a bit of coagulated blood. However, along with the increase in speed, the cleansing of coagulated blood clogged within Tang Yunde's brain had spent a full four hours. The neural repair of Tang Yunde's brain was as slow as before. While star power had a powerful nourishing function, Tang Xiu had spent two whole hours and could only repair 60% of the atrophic part of the brain.
“It's about there!”
Grain of thick sweat rolled on Tang Xiu's forehead, yet he didn't notice it. At this moment, he could feel the occasional burst of exhaustion in his soul, causing him an enormous burden. However, he knew very well that the more critical he was, the more he could not relax. It was because the removal of coagulated blood and the repair of the brain nerves would cause an enormous burden to Tang Yunde's brain if his consciousness could not be released as quickly as possible. Problems created in the last 20 years will carry a heavy burden to the brain due to sudden changes.
Suddenly, a bundle of scent gnawed at Tang Xiu's nose. Quickly, his spirit was shocked. He knew that Chu Yi had lit the Dragon Grass. As his spirit slowly recovered, he began to slowly remove the gray substance that was blocking the ocean mind and the blood vessels of Tang Yunde's brain. This gray substance is much more difficult to clean than the removal of coagulated blood. It was basically thicker, sticky and viscous. The process of removing these substances will require more effort and multiply the amount of mental strength.
Half an hour later, Tang Xiu's complexion had already become paler, as if a paper, while the removal of less than one-twenty gray substances was done.
The door was pushed gently as Chu Yi walked in without a sound. His vision landed on Tang Xiu as his complexion was slightly dazed, along with a shocked expression. Before this, although she saw that Tang Xiu looked a little tense as he pinched a silver needle over Tang Yunde's head to treat her, however, she didn't look like him now. Sweating all over his face, pale, lips turned purple and his eyebrows knitted.
After being silent for a while, he turned on the Dragonfume Grass again and left the room.
Half an hour later, when Chu Yi entered again, she discovered that Tang Xiu was not only sweating, looking pale again, even his body was a bit shivering now. Concerns and worries instantly grew in his heart and could be seen on his face.
After he lit up another Dragonfume Grass, he left the room. Outside, the Tang Family members were still waiting. Despite the fatigue that could be seen on their faces, there was nothing left to rest.
As Tang Guosheng saw Chu Yi come out and was ready to close the door, he asked in a heavy tone, “How?”
“I don't know, but ..” Chu Yi hesitated for a moment and replied with an astringent expression.
“But what?” Ask Tang Guosheng. Her skin changed a little.
“Tang Xiu's condition is very bad. He had sweat all over his face, he was pale and his body trembled. It was as if he was in a very uncomfortable condition, “ Chu Yi replied.
Instantly, all the Tang Family members showed worried and worried expressions.
Su Lingyun asked hurriedly, “Xiuer, she .... she is not in a dangerous condition, right?”
“I don't know,” shook his head, Chu Yi replied.
Time passes quickly.
Four hours later.
After Chu Yi turned on the eleventh Dragonfume Grass, Tang Xiu's slightly hoarse voice entered her ears, “Turning on the tension for every ten minutes later.”
Chu Yi did not reply, but she firmly remembered it. This time her worry for Tang Xiu escalated to an extreme. Right now, not only did Tang Xiu sweat covering his face, there was no more redness on his skin. The blood vessels on his forehead protruded and his lips were no longer purple as there were some cracks on them; there was even blood seeping from him. His body trembled twice as bad as before, looking as if he would fall into a coma at any moment.
After hesitating, she quietly pulled out her phone, taking a photo of Tang Xiu and Tang Yunde before she left the room quietly.
“It's not finished?”
Tang Guosheng asked with worry all over his face
Shaking his head, Chu Yi took his phone and said, “Grandfather, this is the picture I just took. Look at! ”
Tang Guosheng picked up the phone. Her body trembled as she looked at Tang Xiu's appearance, disbelief appearing in her eyes.
It was a very pitiful and miserable appearance!
He would never have thought that Tang Xiu would fall into such a miserable condition to heal his son. In particular, blood also seeped from Tang Xiu's dry and chapped lips, making him somewhat depressed.
Su Lingyun quickly grabbed the phone. When she saw Tang Xiu's appearance, it was as if her heart was pierced by a knife. Two tear lines can't help rolling down. He wanted to rush in and stop his son from stopping treatment, for fear that he would lose his son.
However, there was little reason to tell him not to be impulsive. If she annoys her son, not only can her husband be saved, his son will also be involved.
The phone was given to the other Tang Family members. When they saw the picture, each of them fell silent. At first, they showed approval for Tang Xiu because he was one of their blood. But talking about family affection, to be honest, is not much.
However, they no longer had such thoughts at this moment. The reason why Tang Xiu asked them to look for the Dragonfume Grass in advance, was probably because he already knew that he would face such a situation. However, she did not hesitate to treat Tang Yunde with everything she got. This by itself showed that he was a genuine descendant of the Tang Family with great affection.
“Goodies!”
Looking at the image, tears could not stop flowing from Qin Changyue's eyes. Her heart was like being twisted with a knife. 20 years had passed with her lost granddaughter and she could finally see it, but she never expected that she would fall into such a state.
In the room.
Tang Xiu had cleared four-fifths of the gray matter within Tang Yunde's brain. However, he had also reached the limit because his mental strength had been consumed. If he was persistent, his mental strength would be heavily involved in a detrimental way. However, his tenacity and willpower had been forged for 10,000 years, causing him to insist and endure like before.
Whether he didn't do it or actually finished it, there was no other choice!
Tang Xiu bit the tip of his tongue. The tickling pain made him conscious again. However, the speed to remove the gray substance will be slower later.
When Tang Xiu had been taking care of Tang Yunde for about 27 hours, there was only a tenth of the gray substance left. At this moment, he discovered that Tang Yunde's consciousness had penetrated into his mind and regained control of his body.
“Do not move first.”
With a hoarse and weak voice, Tang Xiu spoke to him.
At this moment, Tang Yunde felt that he was in a dream. He did not know how much time had passed in the outside world. What he felt was that he had been trapped within the endless darkness for a very long time. So long that he forgot how long, even almost forgot who he was. Over the years, there has only been one obsession that unites him, supporting him in order not to let his consciousness break apart and dissolve, turning him into mass energy within himself.
The voice he heard, was the voice of a very young person!
As she opened her eyes, she saw Tang Xiu in an extremely pitiful appearance sitting cross-legged in front of her. As his eyes turned around, he also saw the scene inside the room.
“Who are you?”
Tang Yunde's throat wriggled a few times as she spoke in a weak voice.
“Shut!” Tang Xiu's hoarse voice sounded again.
Tang Yunde was silent. Although she did not know Tang Xiu, but she also realized that she was treating him. The endless darkness he awakened was also a benefit of the young man before him. Grateful, he remained silent and sat down without moving.
32 Hours have passed.
As Tang Xiu cleared away the remaining gray matter, he finally could not suppress the burning blood inside as a mouthful of blood spurted out crazily. At the same time, all of his mental strength and star power were consumed thoroughly. Darkness shrouded his consciousness as his body fell to the side shortly after and fell into a coma.
“You..”.
Tang Yunde's clothes were dyed red with Tang Xiu's blood. However, she was more worried about Tang Xiu's safety. After all, this person was the one who had saved him. He wanted to help support Tang Xiu, but his body was stiff, causing his movements to be extremely slow. This kind of weak feeling that came from his soul also made him feel extremely dizzy and faint.
Finally, as she touched Tang Xiu's arm, darkness filled her mind as she also fainted.
Outdoors.
Tangs finally couldn't wait any longer. Some of them went to rest elsewhere, while others sat directly on the bench, asleep. Tang Guosheng had rested for a moment, and his eyes, which had been through the weather and storms of life, were staring at the door. But at the side, Su Lingyun, who had not rested for more than 32 hours, had his eyes turned red, looking extremely miserable. But he was still waiting and praying.
“Grandfather, should I go inside again?”
Chu Yi crouched down beside Tang Guosheng. He also waited anxiously and finally could not bear it except to ask.
After being silent for a while, Tang Guosheng nodded, “Remember, don't interrupt her.”
“Good!”
Nodding, Chu Yi got up and rubbed her numb legs. Then, he walked towards the door. When he gently opened the door and saw the situation inside, his complexion changed instantly. He turned his head and said, “Grandfather, that's no good!”
