第五卷 天云十二州 第一千一百五十九章 九天回元丹

"Ah," Xiao Tao nodded. Her pretty face then showed a look of indignation: "It was those True Immortals who interfered."

"True Immortals interfered?" Yue'er was stunned, her pretty face full of bewilderment.

"It's true. Those shameless fellows from the Celestial Realm were afraid that Miss would seek revenge and thus went through great lengths to prevent your reincarnation. They even tampered with the laws of this world, trying to stop you from being reborn. Although their plan ultimately failed, it still had some impact on your soul," Xiao Tao said angrily, her words filled with hatred for the True Immortals. This girl was loyal and devoted.

"Impact? How serious is that?"

Yue'er couldn't help but feel tense at this news.

"It's hard to say..." Xiao Tao's face showed a hint of difficulty.

"Not easy to say?"

"Yes." Xiao Tao nodded: "Miss, although your current abilities are excellent, they still fall short compared to your past life. But that doesn't matter; once the seals are lifted, you will naturally return to your original brilliance as King Asura. However, before that, cultivation will present some challenges."

"Challenges? Are you talking about mental breakdowns?"

Xiao Tao's face showed a mix of amusement and exasperation: "I forgot; Miss has her memories sealed. This river, the Unfixed River, is significant to you because it was your abode in the mortal realm."

Meanwhile, Lin Xuan frowned deeply as he found the situation with Qinxin much more complicated than he had anticipated.

The spider venom had completely taken effect. Previously, since Ou Yang was an Incarnation Stage cultivator, her injuries could be somewhat suppressed by her cultivation level. But now, she was severely injured and seemed to have lost most of her power.

In simple terms, this situation wasn't much better than that of a commoner who had been poisoned. Yet, she had fallen victim to such a terrifying poison.

Thus, Lin Xuan's left hand tightly held Ou Yang's jade palm, using his true essence to suppress the poison from spreading throughout her body...

However, this was not the worst part.

What troubled Lin Xuan more than the spider venom was that he had no idea what secret technique Ou Yang used. Both her physical body and Incarnation were clearly struggling, showing signs of imminent collapse.

While it might be manageable for a physical body, if her Incarnation disintegrated, even with True Immortals present, there would be nothing they could do.

What should he do?

Although Lin Xuan wasn't panicking, concern was certainly affecting his judgment.

Don’t panic; urgency won’t solve the problem. Lin Xuan told himself to focus on alleviating the spider venom first.

With that thought in mind, Lin Xuan reached out and patted his waist.

A shimmer of light appeared before him as a jade bottle floated into view.

He unscrewed the cap and poured out a small pill about the size of a dragon eye.

Its fragrance filled his nostrils, making him feel refreshed and at ease.

Lin Xuan smiled. He had only refined three such pills in nine days.

The name of this elixir was not widely known among cultivators today, but it was famous during ancient times.

As everyone knew, the most precious elixirs in cultivation were those that could reverse fate and extend life. After them came those that helped with breakthroughs.

Next, more rare but commonly used were power-enhancing elixirs.

However, there were many other types of elixirs involved in alchemy, such as healing injuries or even regenerating severed limbs...

Overall, these were considered healing elixirs. In the secular world, they couldn’t bring back the dead, but they were highly sought after by common people. For cultivators, however, these healing elixirs were far less important compared to those that enhanced cultivation.

But there were exceptions, like the Nine-Days Rejuvenation Pill, which had another name: Three-Day Lifesaving Powder.

The name itself explained its effects; as long as one was still alive after taking it, they would be safe for three days. Of course, this safety meant only that death could be avoided, but it provided an extra three days to seek medical help.

Back in ancient times, the Nine-Days Rejuvenation Pill was highly renowned, and its ingredients were extremely rare. Even ordinary cultivators couldn’t afford them, let alone late Incarnation Stage experts.

Lin Xuan happened upon this formula by chance when he was sorting through his storage bag one day. He had no idea where it came from; perhaps he inherited it after killing a unlucky cultivator.

After understanding the effects of this elixir, Lin Xuan became very interested. Although he possessed powers equivalent to those of higher-stage cultivators, who knew when he might be severely injured?

Overall, it was always better to prepare for such situations in the cultivation world.

However, after much effort, Lin Xuan had only managed to refine three of these elixirs.

Now they were exactly what he needed.

Lin Xuan gently lifted the girl and placed her half-sitting on his lap.

Ou Yang's eyes remained tightly shut, her face as pale as paper; she was still unconscious.

Giving a drug to an unconscious person in the secular world would be extremely difficult. But for cultivators, it was nothing.

Lin Xuan cast a spell and the pill floated in mid-air, enveloped by a layer of light. He then placed his hand on Ou Yang's chest and slowly infused her with his power.

Although she remained unconscious, her lips moved slightly as the Nine-Days Rejuvenation Pill slid down her throat along the esophagus.

Lin Xuan's frown eased slightly; he saw hope in his eyes. This elixir was famous for its effects back then, so it wouldn't be a lie. In three days, Qinxin should be fine.

But danger wasn’t over yet; just delayed by a few days.

Lin Xuan couldn’t bear to watch Qinxin die. He only wanted to save her. But what could he do?

He had no idea and could only focus on removing the poison first.

His sleeves fluttered, and a sword of light shot out, illuminating the cave as it carved out a stone bed.

Lin Xuan carried Qinxin over and laid her down gently.

The method to expel toxins was similar to what he had done in Snow Tower City. He needed to remove her outer clothing and massage specific acupoints using his true essence mixed with the strange poison from the Green Illusion Mystic Fire, which could temporarily suppress the spider venom.

He swallowed hard as his hands trembled. Even facing Hu Tongseng, he hadn’t felt this nervous before.

Although they had already experienced it once, that time Qinxin had taken off her clothes on her own.

Now, in a situation where both were alone and she was unconscious, Lin Xuan felt extremely anxious as he needed to take off her outer clothing.

He had never undressed a girl before. With Peacock, although he initiated it, his initial actions were hesitant and awkward.

Hell, what was he thinking? He was here for the sake of saving Qinxin.

Lin Xuan silently recited "Southwest Buddha" in his mind, taking deep breaths to calm himself. His heart still raced, but he carefully lifted Ou Yang's back and slowly removed her outer clothing.

Only her undergarments remained as she revealed her fair skin and the delicate curve of her back. The scene was eerily similar to their previous encounter.

Back then, both were embarrassed; Lin Xuan had no courage to look more closely. Now that Qinxin was unconscious, he couldn’t help but gaze at her a bit longer.

The result was that his eyes almost wouldn't move.

Ou Yang was undoubtedly beautiful, though not as stunning as Qin Yan or Yue'er. Her beauty was undeniable; her youthful appearance due to the anti-aging technique made her look even more charming with her curvy figure...

Lin Xuan’s distraction was understandable, but he quickly regained his composure and felt a bit guilty for his actions, which were meant to heal Qinxin.
