Chapter 991 My Daoist Companion Fell in Love with Someone Else on the Road to Resurrecting Me (2)
Shen Shuyi sat in the ice coffin, recovering some of her spiritual power, while listening to the system talk about Wen Yuheng and Yun Qingyi.
Wen Yuheng and Yun Qingyi were in a secret realm at the moment. They had just gone through a fierce battle and obtained a spiritual medicine for refining the Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill. The two found a secluded place to rest.
A fire was burning in front of her. Yun Qingyi looked at the absent-minded Wen Yuheng and asked softly, "Master, are you alright?"
"It's alright." Wen Yuheng's face was cold and indifferent.
Yun Qingyi opened her mouth, but held back her words of concern, and only said, "That's great! We found the Nine-Leaf Soul-Gathering Grass today. Once we find the Moon Soul Immortal Mushroom and the Star Marrow Snow Lotus, we can refine the Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill to revive our Holy Maiden sister."
As she spoke, she clutched her chest, blood trickling from her lips.
Wen Yuheng noticed that she was injured, so he reached out his hand to her and said, "Come here, let me heal your wounds."
"Thank you, Master." Yun Qingyi was overjoyed; her master still cared about her.
After healing her wounds, Yun Qingyi asked somewhat nervously, "Master, are you also blaming me for harming the Holy Maiden?"
"Don't overthink it, it wasn't your fault back then," Wen Yuheng sighed.
Yun Qingyi felt a surge of joy upon hearing this. Fortunately, her master didn't blame her.
When she first encountered the Demon Lord in the forbidden area, she thought that since he was handsome, he must be a good person. She believed that she could help him repent and cleanse himself of his sins, so she agreed to let him reside in her body to nourish his soul and bring him out of the forbidden area.
She just didn't expect that the Demon Lord would actually attack her most respected master.
Thankfully, Master is alright.
As for the Holy Maiden, she didn't do it on purpose.
"Master, I will definitely apologize to the Holy Maiden when she wakes up."
Wen Yuheng remained silent after listening to Yun Qingyi's words, recalling the days he spent cultivating with his Daoist partner.
If this accident hadn't happened, they would have formed a pact, would have lived and died together, and would never have been separated.
Seeing his absent-minded look, Yun Qingyi knew he was thinking of Shen Shuyi. She bit her lower lip, and her eyes reddened.
If only she and her master had met first.
……
Shen Shuyi emerged from the ice coffin, still feeling weak all over. "66, I feel completely drained, no different from an ordinary person."
[Host, don't worry, you can choose a cheat ability in this small world.]
Shen Shuyi raised an eyebrow. "Such a good thing? Let's see what we can choose from."
[A: A cultivation tower that can accelerate time; one day inside the tower is equivalent to ten years in the cultivation world!]
[B: Forbidden Land Sign-in Artifact. Follow the artifact's prompts to sign in at various forbidden lands and secret realms to obtain various divine pills and secret manuals!]
[C: The Path of Cultivation Simulation allows you to simulate in advance, choose the optimal cultivation path, and break through to the Divine Artifact realm!]
[D: A naturally born Dao embryo, possessing a pure spiritual root, a chosen physique for cultivation, with cultivation speed and potential both at a genius level, and no bottlenecks in cultivation!]
After reading it, Shen Shuyi chose the last one without even thinking.
"66, I want the innate Dao embryo."
[Host, you're fine. Your original body was already severely injured, so replacing it with a primordial Dao embryo is the most suitable option.]
Shen Shuyi nodded, "Let's choose this one. Before Wen Yuheng returns, I'll cultivate in this spiritually rich forbidden area for a while before leaving." Such a blessed land shouldn't be wasted.
After Shen Shuyi used the cheat, she immediately felt the essence in her blood boiling and surging, which took until the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to completely calm down.
Then she began to cultivate in seclusion. Three days later, the forbidden cave suddenly shone brightly and burst forth with a sound like a tsunami.
Shen Shuyi looked inward at her dantian, where her sea of consciousness was filled with a golden light, accompanied by lightning and thunder.
She couldn't help but exclaim, "As expected of a primordial Dao embryo, my sea of consciousness is filled with myriad divine lights, as dazzling as a rainbow. It must be extraordinary to produce such a phenomenon."
[Hmph o(￣ヘ￣o＃) Dear host, this thing is incredibly powerful! If I had this physique back then, I would have become a true immortal long ago, instead of being reduced to just a tail!]
Shen Shuyi stroked the head of her fiery red fox form, which had reverted to its original form, and said, "Sister Fox, you will definitely be able to fight your way back in the future!"
[I'm not in a rush, what are your plans for the future?]
Shen Shuyi pondered for a moment, "I'll go into seclusion for another half month, then go to Xuandan Valley to rescue Li Canglan, and then go to the Demon Abyss to destroy the last wisp of the Demon Lord's soul. After dealing with the Demon Abyss, I'll naturally go back to the Duxian Sect to settle accounts with Wen Yuheng."
She felt that Yun Qingyi was not as innocent as she appeared. She knew that Mo Xuanjin was the Demon Lord, and that Mo Xuanjin had harmed innocent people in several cities and was eventually suppressed and sealed in the Nine Netherworld Forbidden Land by the combined efforts of various sects. She not only released Mo Xuanjin from the forbidden land, but also brought this demon to the Crossing Immortal Sect.
I really don't know what she was thinking. Mo Xuanjin almost killed his master. Although the one who died in the end was the Holy Maiden, she still secretly hid a wisp of the Demon Lord's soul when Wen Yuheng killed the Demon Lord and let him leave.
Suddenly, an idea came to Shen Shuyi's mind, and she felt even more motivated to cultivate in seclusion.
At the same time, on the peak of the Spirit Medicine Peak in Xuandan Valley, an old man with an air of otherworldly grace, yet also like a ghost, drifted into a cave.
Inside the cave, a barrier emitted a soft green light, completely enveloping the stone chamber. Wherever the green light reached, the air was filled with a bitter, herbal scent.
In the center of the stone chamber, Li Canglan, who possessed the bloodline of a dragon demon, had his collarbone pierced by seven Xuan Iron Soul-Devouring Chains. The other end of the chains was deeply embedded in the dragon-patterned stone pillar on the cave wall. The dark chains gleamed with a cold light, and each link was engraved with runes that suppressed demonic power, which were sizzling and burning his exposed dragon scales.
His dark-colored outfit was already soaked in blood, his long black hair was messily stuck to his neck, and his face, which was originally covered with fine silver scales, was now completely drained of color. Only his vertical pupils remained sharp as knives, staring intently at the old man who was floating towards him.
The dragon's tail was wrapped three times with iron chains, and half of the bone spur at the tip of the tail broke off. What flowed out was not ordinary blood, but demonic essence with a faint green light. It turned into a wisp of green smoke and dissipated when it fell to the ground.
Elder Liu looked at the half-demon he had raised with elixirs with satisfaction. "You will soon be free. I have prepared many spiritual medicines for you."
"Kill me or torture me, enough with the nonsense." Li Canglan's voice was hoarse. With each word he spoke, the runes on the black iron chain lit up a little more, causing his muscles to tense up in pain, and the veins under his silver scales to bulge.
Elder Liu's wide, plain-colored Daoist robe swept across the ground, carrying a chilling fragrance of pills. A sinister smile curled at the corner of his mouth: "Your dragon demon bloodline is an ancient and exotic species. Combined with the thousand-year-old Vermilion Fruit and the Nine Nether Cold Spring from my valley, the 'Blood Essence Pill' refined from it is enough to allow this old man to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm."
Upon hearing this, Li Canglan struggled violently, the black iron chains rattling loudly as they were pulled, causing rubble to fall from the cave ceiling. However, the runic chains tightened more and more, almost breaking his bones.
His vertical pupils surged with boundless rage, and he lashed his dragon tail at Elder Liu, only to be bounced back by the barrier, causing him to cough up a mouthful of blood.
