Fabre in Sacheon’s Tang

I had learned poison arts, so I could attempt detoxification using internal energy, regardless of the poison.

Poison arts allowed me to drive poison out of my body by channeling it through my blood vessels to one side, then expelling it outward.

Even without poison arts, ordinary internal energy could achieve this, but poison arts were far more efficient.

Of course, it could vary depending on the poison.

The stronger the poison, the less effective the method could become, and in some cases, it might not be possible to completely detoxify it. In the process, one’s meridians could also suffer damage.

However, the poison carried in with the scent of flowers wasn’t a lethal one, so I immediately sat down cross-legged and began the detoxification.

The creature that had inhaled Sister Jeokwol’s Blood-Blossom Dream Illusion Butterfly powder would fall asleep before long, and probably wouldn’t wake up until midday. So I decided to detoxify myself first.

But right from the start, I was shocked.

It wasn’t a lethal poison, but it was truly bizarre.

I already knew that trying to move my left leg would cause my right leg to move, and that moving my right arm might cause my left arm to react.

So I’d assumed it was a nerve-affecting poison that caused left-right reversal—but now, even my internal energy manipulation was being affected.

When I tried to circulate internal energy to expel the poison, I clearly attempted to follow the proper flow, yet my energy suddenly reversed course.
