A full hour passed before Dai Mobai finally enveloped the last meridian occupied by the serpent poison in Blood Demon Flame.
That meridian was the main channel of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison, extending from her dantian to near her heart meridian. It was the thickest of the branching channels, and the one where the poisonous mist was densest.
It lay deepest within her body, and the poisonous mist there was several times more concentrated than in the other meridians. Its color had turned from jade green to an inky green, almost solidifying.
Blood Demon Flame enveloped the entire meridian, burning along its outer wall and gradually consuming the poisonous mist clinging within.
This was the most crucial step.
This main channel connected her dantian and heart meridian, serving as the source of all the serpent poison.
Unless it was completely purged, the poison would spread from the main channel again, even if every other branch had been cleared.
Dai Mobai focused all his remaining mental power on this single meridian. Blood Demon Flame formed an impenetrable film of fire around its outer wall, locking the inky-green poisonous mist firmly inside.
"Melt-for me!"
Dai Mobai gave a low shout, opened his fingers into a palm, and slammed it against Dugu Yan's lower abdomen!
The instant the force of his palm surged into her, the mass of Blood Demon Flame enveloping the meridian abruptly contracted, then expanded outward.
As it contracted, it compressed the inky-green poisonous mist into a fist-sized clump; as it expanded, it shattered that clump completely.
The force of the expansion shattered the last traces of serpent poison clinging to the meridian wall, turning them into wisps of pale smoke that dispersed within the meridian.
The smoke seeped out through Dugu Yan's pores, forming a thin jade-green mist
