Zhi Shang's all-out attack was forcefully taken by Liu Li, who was already nearing exhaustion. If it weren't for the Seven Treasures Kasaya, Liu Li would have been killed on the spot.
Even though the Seven Treasures Kasaya blocked most of the impact, she would only survive temporarily. If time dragged on, the damage to her internal organs would gradually worsen, eventually taking her life.
Shi Chan was well aware of the situation, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free from the control of the golden light emanating from the alms bowl. Ge Yiyuan and Yu Xin, who were also surrounded and unable to protect themselves, naturally couldn't help him either.
What made Shi Chan even more desperate was that Zhi Shang's hands were emitting a dazzling golden light, indicating that he was about to attack again.
"Uncle-Master Zhishang!" Shi Chan was horrified. If Liuli were to suffer another blow from him, she would surely die. He desperately pleaded, "Uncle-Master, please spare Liuli, spare her...please..."
The dazzling golden light illuminated Zhi Shang's cold face, and a demon-slaying talisman was about to take shape in his hand.
Suddenly, the small world of ice and snow shook violently, like an earthquake, which successfully interrupted Zhi Shang's actions, and the demon-subduing talisman that had just taken shape also instantly disappeared.
"Oh no!" Zhi Shang exclaimed in alarm as he looked up and saw that a crack had appeared in the sky above this small world.
When the tremor came, everyone lost their footing and almost fell over, and the encirclement was instantly interrupted.
After the tremor subsided, all the Buddhist disciples stopped fighting and gathered together. Yu Xin and Ge Yiyuan, who were covered in wounds, also quickly stood back to back, watching the group of Buddhist disciples warily.
All the Buddhist disciples, including Zhixin, looked up in surprise at the crack in the sky.
Suddenly, another violent tremor shook the small world. This time, even the golden bowl above Shichan and Liuli's heads shook. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Shichan used his hand, which was touching the Seven Treasures Kasaya, to activate the power of the Kasaya, pushing away the golden light emitted by the golden bowl and breaking free from its confinement.
Shi Chan retreated far away from the golden bowl. He ignored the tremors in the small world and tried his best to stabilize himself amidst the violent shaking. A huge amount of Buddhist light emanated from his hands and rushed into Liuli's body, repairing her broken bones and damaged internal organs little by little.
His face was still streaked with tears, and his gaze as he looked down at her was unusually gentle. He whispered, "It's alright, Liuli, it's alright now..."
His words trembled slightly as he spoke, revealing the deep worry and tenderness in his heart. It was unclear whether he was speaking to Liuli or to himself.
At that moment, Liuli's eyes were half-closed, and her pale face looked extremely weak, but she felt Shichan's concern, and the corners of her lips turned up slightly, smiling happily.
A flash of light appeared in Liuli's hand, and a black pill materialized out of thin air in front of Shichan. She spoke softly, her voice extremely low and weak, "Shichan, feed me this pill..."
Shi Chan could smell the essence of living people inside the pill; he knew it was a Rejuvenating Pill made by the demon race using the essence of living people. However, without the slightest hesitation, he quickly caught the pill and brought it to Liuli's lips.
Liuli opened her mouth and swallowed the Rejuvenation Pill. After chewing it haphazardly a few times, she swallowed it. Not long after, she felt a warm current spread throughout her body, and the pain in her body was instantly relieved.
"I'm sorry, Shi Chan..." Liu Li looked at Shi Chan with apologetic eyes and said softly, "I know you don't like the Rejuvenation Pill, but it really hurts so much..."
“It’s alright, it’s alright…” Shi Chan said repeatedly, shaking his head incessantly, his voice still trembling slightly.
Shi Chan's eyes stung with tears, and if he hadn't tried his best to hold them back, more tears would have flowed. He took a deep breath, suppressed his tears, and said in a trembling voice, "As long as you're alright, it's all okay..."
At this moment, in Shi Chan's heart, all the suffering beings in the world were no match for Liu Li's safety. As long as she was alright, he would do anything, even kill people with his own hands to make the Rejuvenation Pill, without the slightest hesitation.
So, how could he possibly have any compassion for those whose life essence had been cruelly taken away to make the Rejuvenation Pill?
Despite still being in pain all over her body, Liuli couldn't help but show a weak yet joyful smile.
