Chapter 38 You want me to save her?
Reading Settings
Just then, Shui Ze's voice suddenly rang out in her mind.
"Calm your mind and focus your energy, then use the Weak Water Zither in conjunction with the Yin Technique!"
Lu Fuyue was slightly taken aback. The Yin Technique?
Suddenly, a cultivation technique appeared in her mind.
She immediately summoned her Weak Water Harp, then leaped to the highest branch of the tree beside her, calmed her mind, and began to play.
The Great Yin is boundless, Yin and Yang give rise to each other, and Yin string takes form!
Instantly, the moonlight shone down, and the black yin string on the Weak Water Zither seemed to come alive, flying off the zither and then hovering in mid-air, absorbing a large amount of the moon's yin energy.
Yin String, with the attribute of Yin, can absorb all Yin energy.
At the same time, the white skeletons on the ground, under the influence of the Yin energy, began to wail continuously, gradually becoming transparent, turning into dust, and disappearing from the ground.
Lu Fuyue's face also paled a bit, and the spiritual energy in her body was being consumed rapidly, but she still did not stop.
The blood corpse not far away was furious, but dared not get too close.
Although it was not afraid of the Yin energy, it was afraid of the black string floating in mid-air. For some reason, it always felt that the black string would absorb all of its thousand years of cultivation in the next second.
Just as it was about to escape, Lu Fuyue's gaze fell on it.
Trying to run away?
It's not that easy. If we let it go now, we might be the ones who die next time.
One of the most taboo things in cultivating immortality is being soft-hearted and having a soft hand!
Lu Fuyue summoned the Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire from her forehead and struck the blood corpse. The Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire is a Buddhist treasure that burns away all sins. With so much blood on its hands, the blood corpse, even with its early Nascent Soul cultivation, could not escape death.
"Ahhhh—"
The blood corpse struggled and screamed incessantly in the raging flames, but the more it screamed, the more intense the Red Lotus Karmic Fire became.
Just in case, Lu Fuyue plucked the strings of her zither again. Because she used more techniques than she could, a metallic taste of blood welled up in her throat. She suppressed the urge to faint and circulated her techniques once more.
Under Lu Fuyue's control, the Yin String in mid-air immediately locked onto the blood corpse, then quickly grew larger and tightly bound it.
Immediately, the ghostly energy within the blood corpse began to be continuously absorbed by Yin Xian, and the blood corpse's screams became even more shrill.
"Ahhh, Yu Lang, save me, please save me..."
It used all its ghostly power to try to break free, but in addition to the power of the Yin, countless red lotus karmic fires were burning its body.
Lu Fuyue's expression changed drastically. If it attracted the thing behind it, they would be in big trouble.
A cold glint flashed in Lu Fuyue's eyes as she poured all her spiritual power into the strings of her zither.
"Ahhh, let me go right now, or Yu Lang won't let you off the hook, you bitch!"
"Let me go..."
Gradually, due to the disappearance of the ghost power and the burning of the red lotus karmic fire, the blood corpse's body shrank continuously until it shrank into a pool of blood. In less than a moment, the pool of blood on the ground also disappeared.
With the blood corpse finally dealt with, Lu Fuyue was able to relax. However, the next second, due to the exhaustion of her spiritual energy, she fell headfirst off the tree.
Fortunately, a clever monkey appeared and caught her, then took her unconscious body to a cave deep in the forest.
When Lu Fuyue woke up again, she was in a brightly lit cave with a wide view.
Wasn't she in the Valley of Misty Clouds? How did she end up here?
Just as Lu Fuyue was feeling puzzled, a hand suddenly landed on her shoulder from behind.
Lu Fuyue's expression immediately changed slightly. She immediately summoned the Weak Water Harp and turned to attack the opponent. However, after seeing that the opponent was just a thousand-year-old spirit monkey, she was slightly stunned.
Did you save me?
According to the cultivation world's calculations, this thousand-year-old spirit monkey's strength is only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm. Generally, demonic beasts must reach the Nascent Soul stage or above to transform into human form.
However, it had already awakened its spiritual consciousness, otherwise it wouldn't have been able to save Lu Fuyue.
The thousand-year-old spirit monkey nodded, then grabbed Lu Fuyue's hand and anxiously pointed to another spirit monkey behind it.
When Lu Fuyue saw the large hole in the chest of the female monkey lying on the ground, she was taken aback. "You want me to save it?"
The male monkey nodded excitedly.
Lu Fuyue walked over to the injured female monkey and carefully examined its injuries.
A hint of seriousness flashed in her eyes.
The female monkey's chest was likely injured by the cultivator's sword; the bloody wound still emanated the residual spiritual energy from the attack.
Judging from the aura, the person who attacked it should be at least a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, and judging from the degree of rot in the wound, it was probably injured five days ago.
However, because its injuries had dragged on for too long, the pills on Lu Fuyue's body could not completely heal it; at most, they could only protect its heart meridian and slow the spread of the injuries.
To cure it, we must find the Grade 3 spiritual herb, the Rejuvenation Flower, and refine it into the Grade 3 elixir, the Rejuvenation Pill.
Lu Fuyue pursed her lips and looked at the spirit monkey that had saved her. "Its injuries are too severe. I don't have any medicine on me, so I can only save its life temporarily. If you want to save it, you'll need a Resurrection Pill, but I don't have any here."
"If you can find the Rejuvenation Flower within three days, I can try my best to refine a Rejuvenation Pill for you, but I'm not confident I can succeed."
She has only studied alchemy for half a year since she first came into contact with it. She can make second-grade pills, but the success rate is not very high. She has not yet tried to make third-grade pills and does not know if she can succeed.
Lu Fuyue really wanted to help it, but her spiritual power hadn't recovered yet, so she couldn't go with it to search for the time being.
Upon hearing this, the male monkey's spirits immediately sank.
It glanced at the still unconscious mother monkey, a determined glint in its eyes, just as it was about to leave.
Lu Fuyue called out to it, "Wait, the Resurrection Flower usually grows next to a cold pool. Its petals have seven colors and emit a faint blue light. However, it is usually protected by a guardian spirit beast."
Upon hearing this, the monkey stopped moving.
Excitedly, it grabbed Lu Fuyue and quickly walked to a small ditch at the entrance of the cave. Then, it parted the weeds beside the ditch, and suddenly a seven-colored flower emitting blue light appeared in Lu Fuyue's sight.
A hint of shock flashed in Lu Fuyue's eyes. So this little ditch was actually the Cold Pool, and the spirit monkey beside her was the guardian spirit beast of the Rejuvenation Flower?
She stepped forward and carefully picked the flower; it was indeed a resurrected flower.
I didn't expect to find the Resurrection Flower so easily.
The monkey was also excited. It had thought the flower was beautiful and wanted to pick it and give it to its mother when it was in full bloom. It never expected that it would save her life.
***
After Lu Fuyue meditated to recover her spiritual power, she got up and took out the alchemy furnace, intending to go through the steps of refining a grade three Rejuvenation Pill.
After all, this was her first time refining a grade three pill, and the materials for the Rejuvenation Pill were only available in one batch. If she failed, then the female spirit monkey would be beyond saving.
However, she suddenly remembered that the book said that using different flames to refine pills could increase the success rate and also improve the quality of the pills.
