Several years ago, Vermilion Bird Peak lost many elders during the Xuandan Sect’s doomsday disaster. In the early stage after the catastrophe, the Chief Elder was only at the Foundation Building Middle Level. However, a year after the tragedy, Jiang Yu broke through from the Foundation Building Middle Level to the Foundation Building late stage, becoming the new Chief Elder of Vermilion Bird Peak.
Jiang Yu had a deep impression of Han Yi, after all, he was the only one in the entire Xuandan Sect that the sect master, Yuan Shun, personally protected during his breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment stage.
In the Vermilion Bird Peak.
After conducting a thorough inspection, Jiang Yu let out a heavy sigh.
“Junior Brother Han, this outer sect disciple, Zheng Hai, should have been captured by the Fragrance Sect to be bred in their pill refining grounds, and used to refine their Fragrance pill, right?”
Han Yi nodded, “That’s right, Zheng Hai was indeed captured to refine the Fragrance pill.”
“Elder Brother Jiang, is there any way to heal him? You can mention any difficulties, and I’ll try to solve them. Regardless of whether we can save him or not, I, Han Yi, owe you a favor.”
Han Yi solemnly said, he didn’t make promises lightly, but once he made a promise, he would go all out to fulfill it.
He was a man who valued commitments.
Jiang Yu waved his hands.
“Junior Brother Han, please listen to me first.”
“Cultivators captured by the Fragrance Sect to refine pills can be divided into two situations, one is recoverable, and the other is irreversible. The recoverable cultivators are those who have been refining pills for a short period of time and have not really damaged their foundations. They only need Spiritual Medicine to recuperate, and they will recover after a while.”
“The second one, irreversible, is also divided into two situations: one is that they can be saved. They can be saved by taking certain Spiritual Medicines, but even if they can be saved, they will become mortals, their Immortal Path cut off. The other one is decided to die, unable to be saved even by Spiritual Medicines.”
“In my opinion, Zheng Hai belongs to the second situation, irreversible, and should be at the borderline between being saved and unsaved. If there were certain Spiritual Medicines, he should be able to be saved.”
“However, such Spiritual Medicines are too rare. Our Xuandan Sect doesn’t have many.”
Jiang Yu shook his head, obviously feeling that healing would be very difficult.
But Han Yi’s eyes brightened. As long as there were Spiritual Medicines, he could buy them. At present, he has more than ten thousand middle-grade Spirit Stones and more than one hundred high-grade Spirit Stones, plus two treasures. With such wealth, he was already comparable to a Golden Core Stage Cultivator.
He didn’t believe that he couldn’t buy the required Spiritual Medicines even if he used all his wealth for it.
“Elder Brother Jiang, just say it. What kind of Spiritual Medicine is needed and how many Spirit Stones or points are needed to buy it?”
Seeing Han Yi’s full confidence, and recalling Han Yi’s relationship with Yuan Shun, Jiang Yu nodded in agreement.
“There is a type of Spiritual Grass called Back-to-Life Spirit Grass. Just a small amount of it can revive a cultivator’s body and Divine Soul. This kind of Spiritual Grass is effective even for Foundation Establishment stage cultivators.”
“If Junior Brother Han can get a small piece of it, there will be no problem saving Zheng Hai.”
“Additionally, there is a kind of Evil Beast called the Light Scale Beast. A seven or higher order Light Scale Beast will condense a Light Scale Pearl in its head. This pearl is also a treasure, and if consumed, can save Zheng Hai as well. However, this kind of Light Scale Beast only appears in the Evil Mountain Range and is extremely rare.”
As he said this, something seemed to occur to Jiang Yu.
“These two Spiritual Items, as far as I know, nobody in the sect has them in their possession.”
“However, there is a third Spiritual Item, and it is currently in the possession of our sect.”
Han Yi’s eyes were full of joy upon hearing this.
“It is said that Jiang Bo obtained a Spiritual Jade at the Emperor’s birthday celebration last time. This Spiritual Jade is very gentle and, if consumed by Zheng Hai, may nourish his body, giving birth to a trace of mana. With this trace of mana, he would be able to consume other Spiritual Medicines to gradually grow stronger. Given time, he will surely recover.”
“This Spiritual Jade is called Spiritual Jade. It is said to have been handed over to Elder Huo Ming to be made into a pill. If you step up, considering your relationship with Master Yuan, Elder Huo Ming should give you face and not make things difficult for you.”
“I can’t guarantee how effective this will be.”
“But it’s worth a try.”
After Jiang Yu finished speaking, Han Yi was momentarily stunned before suddenly beaming with joy. He immediately turned his hands over, taking out a fist-sized purple Spiritual Jade from his storage ring.
“There’s no need to look for Elder Huo Ming; 1 already have some here.”
Jiang Yu was slightly taken aback. After standing up and taking the Spiritual Jade from Han Yi’s hand to inspect it, he looked at Han Yi in disbelief.
“Junior Brother Han, how did you come to possess the Spiritual Jade? This is a unique spiritual item from Treasured Jade Heaven.”
Instead of explaining, Han Yi urged, “Elder Brother Jiang, I’ll explain the details to you later. At any rate, this Spiritual Jade is indeed mine, and it was indeed obtained from Treasured Jade Heaven. It’s definitely genuine.”
Jiang Yu stopped asking questions when he heard this, and pried open Zheng Hai’s mouth to insert the Spiritual Jade. Then, he placed both hands on Zheng Hai’s chest at the Dantian location, and a fluorescent light spread out from his palms, seeping into Zheng Hai’s chest little by little.
Han Yi’s divine consciousness was closely following the situation of Zheng Hai’s Dantian.
As the Spiritual Jade entered Zheng Hai’s abdomen, it transformed into the most pure spiritual energy. If a cultivator were to absorb this kind of energy, it would perfectly integrate into their body, strengthen their Spirit Sea, enhance their magical powers, nourish their Divine Soul, reinforce their physical body, and elevate their Realm in all aspects without any side effects.
However, at this moment, Zheng Hai was no longer considered a cultivator, or even an ordinary person, as he was on the brink of death. Thus, after the Spiritual Jade dissipated in his abdomen, it was all drawn in by Jiang Yu’s magical powers and completely merged into his Dantian.
With this, a localized spiritual rain began to fall in Zheng Hai’s severely shrunken Dantian, slowly but continuously.
After an incense stick’s time, the spiritual rain transformed from the Spiritual Jade in Zheng Hai’s shrunken Dantian, gradually turning into a type of magical power suitable for Zheng Hai himself.
“Success.” Han Yi was relieved inwardly, his face revealing joy.
Jiang Yu, however, didn’t release his hands but continued the treatment until all the spirit liquid in Zheng Hai’s Dantian had been converted into magical power. However, ninety-nine percent of the magical power was scattered throughout the rest of Zheng Hai’s body, leaving only one percent in his Dantian.
It took a full hour before Jiang Yu withdrew his hands, his face slightly fatigued. For him, this full-force rescue effort was not easy.
“Many thanks Jiang brother, I will definitely repay you,” Han Yi said earnestly.
Jiang Yu waved his hand: “Han junior brother, don’t get too optimistic yet. Although the Spiritual Jade brought out a trace of magical power in Zheng Hai, he can no longer cultivate in this lifetime and will merely remain an ordinary person.”
“Keep this in mind.”
“According to this situation, Zheng Hai should regain consciousness in three days.”
“After that, whether conscious or not, he can take the Nurturing Qi Pill and Focus Pill within a month to recuperate and recover from his injuries.”
Soon afterwards, Jiang Yu gave Han Yi some additional instructions. Before leaving, Han Yi took out an equally sized Spiritual Jade from his storage ring and handed it to Jiang Yu.
“Brother Jiang, please take this as a token of my gratitude and don’t refuse.” Han Yi’s eyes were sincere.
Jiang Yu’s heart skipped a beat again. Han Yi could easily take out two Spiritual Jades at once, making him seem extravagant beyond imagination.
Nevertheless, he didn’t decline and accepted the Spiritual Jade.
In the Cultivation World, people believe in the law of cause and effect. They were both satisfied with the exchange, considering it as a fair trade.
After Han Yi left with Zheng Hai, Jiang Yu couldn’t help but sigh lightly.
“As expected, this guy’s identity is not simple. He can easily take out two Spiritual Jades in a row, and it seems like he still has more.”
“Speaking of which, is it possible that Han Yi is really the descendant of Duke Dingguo? With so many Spiritual Jades, it would explain why the Sect Master personally built the foundation and protected him.”
The more Jiang Yu thought about it, the more he believed he had uncovered some big secret.
On the other side.
After leaving Vermilion Bird Peak, Han Yi steered the Immortal Boat to land at the Azure Dragon Palace, bringing Zheng Hai into a quiet chamber within the palace.
Next.
Every day, he would dissolve Spiritual Jade for Zheng Hai to consume. Over the course of three days, he spent more than a dozen Spiritual Jades. Although the effectiveness was not great, he was willing to spare some if it could increase Zheng Hai’s recovery speed and healing.
Three days later.
Zheng Hai woke up and understood his situation after Han Yi explained everything.
After anger came helplessness, and after helplessness came silence. When the silence passed, he had already come to terms with his fate.
Five days later.
Han Yi took Zheng Hai around the Xuandan Sect. From the Sect Master to the Supreme Elders, and from the Supreme Elders to the other Foundation Establishment stage Elders, none had any other solution.
Ten days later.
An Immortal Boat ascended from the Azure Dragon Palace, cutting through the Cloud Sea and leaving the Xuandan Sect behind. On the boat were Han Yi and a pale-faced Zheng Hai.
This time, their destination was Mengshan City..
