Volume 1: Zhao Shanhe Chapter 100 A Blessing in Misfortune
When Ji Yuan woke up, it was already early morning on the second day.
He opened his eyes and looked at the beams. His half-day and one-night sleep made his thoughts seem a little sluggish, and it took him a while to recall everything before he fell into coma.
After a long time, I just sighed silently, and for a while I felt a lot of emotion in my heart.
"Master! You're awake!"
And just as he sighed, a surprising voice sounded not far away.
Ji Yuan turned his head and looked, and immediately saw Zhao Yuebai moving a futon and sitting cross-legged not far from the bed, looking at him with a look of joy.
"Do you want me to tell Master and the others?"
Zhao Yuebai stood up and stepped forward, helped him up from the bed, and asked softly at the same time.
Hearing this, Ji Yuan shook his head gently: "I will meditate and adjust my breath for a while. There is no need to tell them for the time being."
As soon as he finished speaking, he made a gesture with his heart raised to the sky. As soon as he closed his eyes, his mind sank into his body and he began to look inwards at his own situation.
Over these days, the continuous battles have accumulated a lot of hidden wounds in his body. Looking at it with his mind, some black light can be faintly detected in the flesh and blood that is obscured by the fog.
These black lights are equivalent to a manifestation of hidden wounds. Only by observing them with your mind or spiritual thoughts can you get a glimpse of them.
But compared to the condition inside the physical body, these hidden wounds seem nothing.
At this time, Ji Yuan's body could see stagnation of essence everywhere, blocking various meridians. The qi and blood that were originally integrated were now scattered here and there, making it difficult to connect with each other.
The impact of blocked Qi and blood is that the pieces of flesh and blood become dull, and in the long run there is a risk of withering and necrosis.
In addition, the forceful use of the sword energy lake in the center of his eyebrows also caused serious damage to his meridians, accumulated a large amount of hidden injuries, and even Zifu suffered a serious shock.
Coupled with the injuries suffered by the opponent, if you want to completely recover and recover, you may not even think about it in less than a month or two.
However, physical injuries are easily healed, but the shock in Zifu is not so easy to calm down.
Even though Ji Yuan himself is a highly accomplished alchemy master, he is quite helpless in this regard. Among the elixirs he is good at, they are not effective in calming the turmoil in the Zi Mansion.
Not to mention that although he has condensed the Dao Heart and made his soul more condensed, his soul has been damaged because of the forceful use of the sword energy lake in the Zi Mansion.
What all living things in the world fear most is damage to their own souls. If you are not careful, you may lose your mind, or even lose your soul.
Looking around, Ji Yuan found that his current state could no longer be described as bad, it was simply a mess!
Injuries to the physical body are easily healed, but the damage to the Purple Mansion and the soul can only be repaired bit by bit with the help of water grinding.
The most direct impact of this situation is that he will no longer be able to use the sword energy lake and the sword intention he has comprehended for a short period of time.
Perhaps the only good news is that he can still open and close Zifu and use the white jade flying sword that lives in it.
Suddenly, Ji Yuan had a thought, and his mind immediately sank into his belly. There was still a Water God Pill that had shrunk several times, and it was continuously releasing abundant spiritual energy and medicinal power.
After pondering for a moment, he immediately mobilized the nearby essence and began to refine the Water God Pill, which still had most of its potency.
In just a few breaths, a stream of pure water appeared on Ji Yuan's body, gently blending into his limbs and bones, and began to nourish his body silently.
At the same time, the incense and fire power that had been purified of distracting thoughts escaped from the Water God Pill. He did not need to control it, and it went straight up, and then split into two, blending into his purple mansion and soul.
among.
He knew that the Water God Pill had the effect of nourishing the soul's light, but he did not expect that the power of incense and fire contained in it could repair the damage to Zifu and the soul.
Although the repair speed is not very fast, it is extremely stable, and during the recovery process, he
The purple mansion and soul are also constantly strengthening and becoming more condensed.:
After feeling it for a while, Ji Yuan secretly estimated that once the water god pill is completely refined, the shock in the Zifu will be completely healed, and about half of the injuries to the soul can be recovered.
"not good!"
Just when he was happy about this, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen. When his mind sank, he saw that the rich spiritual energy had filled his entire lower abdomen.
In normal times, the more pure spiritual energy the better, but at this moment, his meridians were severely damaged and blocked by siltation, making it impossible for this spiritual energy to disperse throughout his body.
Nowadays, the huge amount of spiritual energy is constantly squeezing his lower abdomen. If it cannot be drained out in time, at least the meridians here will be destroyed, or at worst, the physical body will collapse completely, and a big hole will be blown out of the abdomen by the spiritual energy.
At that time, even if you want to survive, it will be difficult!
"We have no choice but to fight!"
Ji Yuan muttered to himself, then gritted his teeth and sunk all his mind into his lower abdomen, manipulating the pure spiritual energy as much as possible to hit the blocked meridians!
In just a moment, severe pain came from all around his lower abdomen. The pain was like a heart-piercing pain, which caused layers of cold sweat to break out all over his body.
But at this moment, he had no other choice. Between the injury becoming more serious, his meridians might be completely destroyed, or being blown to death by this spiritual energy, he could only and must choose the former.
Taking a deep breath, Ji Yuan endured the pain from around his abdomen and guided the huge spiritual energy to impact the blocked meridians again and again.
After half a moment, he managed to open up a small meridian, allowing the ever-increasing amount of pure spiritual energy to finally have an opening to pour out.
But this alone is not enough. The speed of spiritual energy pouring out is still not as fast as the speed released from the Water God Pill.
In desperation, he could only grit his teeth and continue, pulling the spiritual energy towards another meridian pulse.
For an entire hour, Ji Yuan opened up seven meridians, and then the spiritual energy in his lower abdomen reached a balance, but a new problem arose.
As the Water God Pill is refining out of control, more and more spiritual energy pours into several meridians. I'm afraid it won't be long before the same situation occurs again.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, and soon a fierce energy emerged.
Since this is already the case for both the left and the right, we might as well just stop doing it!
"There is a mysterious law in the great road. The heaven and earth are in the heart. I observe all living things and illuminate the mountains and rivers for thousands of miles..."
He recited the mental method silently in his heart, and at the same time, he began to run the Xuantian Dao Sutra in his body regardless of everything.
Huge spiritual energy surged through his meridians, breaking through the blocked areas one after another. However, although the disaster of exploding the body was temporarily relieved, it still caused him to endure unimaginable pain at all times.
It wasn't until noon passed, and the Jiyuan of nine great cycles had been running, that I finally opened my tired eyes.
At this time, the Taoist robe on his body had been soaked with sweat several times. Although his cultivation had improved a lot, his breath was very sluggish. It was actually much worse than when he first woke up.
Feeling the worse condition inside his body, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then he realized that there were several people standing in front of him.
In addition to his master and apprentice, there were Song He, his wife and Zhao Yuansong. As for the other people, because the room was limited in size, they all crowded at the door and nervously poked their heads in to look around.
"Disciple, is there something serious?"
When Zhang Zhiya saw him waking up, he quickly sat beside the bed, his old face full of worry.
However, even though the old Taoist priest was extremely anxious, he was just an ordinary person without any cultivation, and the little medical skills he was good at were of no use at this moment.
So he could only ask worriedly, his heart almost in his throat.
Hearing this, Ji Yuan's heart felt warm, and then he shook his head with a smile, saying that he was fine, and his cultivation was even a blessing in disguise, and he became even more diligent.
many.
With this, Zhang Zhiya felt relieved. After a few words of warning, he saw that several people wanted to talk, so he took Zhao Yuebai's hand and walked out of the house.
After the old Taoist priest left, Song He lightly stepped on the ground, and immediately a simple formation appeared and spread to the entire hut.
"This is a soundproof barrier to ensure our conversations don't get out."
He glanced at Ji Yuan, his expression a little strange.
With his cultivation in the second realm, it was impossible to tell that he looked strong on the outside but capable on the inside. It was just because the old Taoist priest was here, so he didn't expose it just now.
Even with his current situation, it is somewhat inappropriate to say that he is strong on the outside but capable on the inside. Although his cultivation has indeed improved a lot, his aura is worse than that of the monks in the early stage of enlightenment.
"Is there something wrong with your performance, or was the injury you suffered previously too serious?"
After thinking about it, Song He still couldn't control the worry in his heart, so he asked directly.
Ji Yuan shook his head and roughly told the three people in front of him about the situation he had encountered before. He did not hide anything about it.
After all, both Song He and his wife, as well as Zhao Yuansong, are people he can trust very much.
"It's not that big of a problem. Although my meridians are almost completely destroyed and I can't use much cultivation for the time being, luckily my life has been saved."
He smiled, but didn't show any strange expression because of it.
On the contrary, he also advised the three of them not to worry. With his attainments in alchemy, it would only take a longer time and a heavier price, but he would be able to recover completely.
"An elder from Jiuxuanmen will arrive soon. Why don't you come back with us after a while?"
Zhao Yuansong smiled and said: "You are going to give me the Palm Peak token anyway, so I just took this opportunity to stay in Jiuxuanmen to heal my wounds."
After all, Qianyu City is no longer as prosperous as it was more than three hundred years ago. In addition, due to the current disaster, the resources that can be collected are very limited. Even if Ji Yuan's alchemy attainments are improved, it will be difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.
The Jiuxuanmen is different. As the head of the Immortal Dao in a county, not to mention how profound the foundation is, there are many rare spiritual objects and medicinal materials in the Treasure Pavilion. The location of its mountain gate alone is already the largest in Feiyun County.
Where monks trade.
In a small town outside the mountain gate, there are even complete magic weapons for sale, not to mention finished healing elixirs.
However, Ji Yuan shook his head and declined Zhao Yuansong's kindness.
For him, going to Jiuxuanmen in his current state really couldn't give him even the slightest bit of peace of mind.
Even though most of the Jiuxuan Sect are upright and upright people, not everyone can act upright.
No one can guarantee whether there are a few villains who are jealous of the Palm Peak token in his hand, or whether he can get the benefits of the mountain inheritance by just nodding his head.
For those who practice Buddhism, they are both most looking forward to and most afraid of what may happen.
"Fellow Daoist Zhao, there are some things I want to talk to Song He privately."
After thinking for a moment, Ji Yuan smiled apologetically at Zhao Yuansong.
Hearing this, the latter nodded immediately. Naturally, he would not be so ignorant. He exchanged polite words with a few people and turned around to leave.
During this process, he did not forget to close the door and directly drag Xu Qiqi and Jiang He, who were leaning against the window to eavesdrop, into the courtyard one by one.
"Old Song, it seems I have to trouble you to make a trip and help me buy some spiritual medicine from the county."
When there were only three people left in the room, Ji Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
What Zhao Yuansong said before was indeed the problem he faced. With the resources in Qianyu City, it was simply impossible to get what he needed.
Even if he entrusts Ming Xinxuan to mobilize the general association in the county and city, not to mention that the price will have to increase by 20 to 30%, it will also expose some of his true situation at this time.
Although he has never set foot outside the hundreds of miles of Qianyu City, and has never had any enemies before, there are still some things that he should be careful about.
Don’t be afraid of 10,000, just be afraid of that eventuality
!
"It's a small thing, what's the trouble? It's just a few days since we last met, so how come we've become so unfamiliar?"
Song He sat on a wooden chair with his wife and glared at Ji Yuan with a feigned displeasure.
The latter laughed when he saw this. Considering the friendship between the two of them, there was no need to be so polite.
After laughing, he took out a pen and paper and wrote down three lists of what he needed. Then in front of the two of them, he summoned the white jade flying sword in Zifu and took out all the spirit stones.
, the spirit coin was handed over to Song He along with the list.
"It might be a little less, or it might be a little more, but the rest is up to you."
When it came to money, he was not polite at all. He knew that there might be some shortages, but he did not take out any yellow or white things to make up for it.
Song He didn't care about this at all, and casually put the things into his Shanhe bag.
On the contrary, Zhou Yuyan on the side covered her mouth and smiled softly, as if she had heard from her husband long ago about Ji Yuan's obsession with money.
"Your current state is very strange. The confusion in your flesh and blood has been partially dispelled, but under the illumination of the soul's light, no magic power has been produced."
After putting the things away, Song He frowned and said.
According to normal circumstances, once a monk uses soul light to dispel the soul in the flesh and blood, mana can be born in the body and enter the spiritual realm.
However, Ji Yuan has clearly achieved this, but he is unable to reproduce in his body. Although he has broken through, he has not completely broken through.
Such a situation has never been seen or heard of in Songhe's past years, and I don't know how to evaluate it for a while.
"It probably has something to do with the fact that my internal injuries were too severe and my meridians were almost completely destroyed."
He thought for a while and then expressed his guess: "After the injury heals and the meridians are reshaped, we should be able to truly break through."
After Ji Yuan finished speaking, he laughed to himself. This was a blessing in disguise. Otherwise, if he had to practice by himself, it would have taken a lot of time.
This is the disaster that is somewhat too great. This chapter has been completed!
