Su Qing's eyes lit up when she saw the golden-eyed ape.
She went to the Frozen Forest specifically for the Golden-Eyed Ape's eyes, and this Golden-Eyed Ape just happened to come to her doorstep—it's perfect!
However, this golden-eyed ape...
Its entire body was covered in black fur, making it look like a black giant. It held a huge club that was seven or eight meters long. This club was some kind of rare and precious material, and it was emitting a faint purple light.
This eighth-tier demonic beast is not to be trifled with!
"Ancestor, run! The big club that the Golden-Eyed Ape is wielding is made of Sun Crystal. The Golden-Eyed Ape is already very strong, and with this Sun Crystal club, its combat power is comparable to that of a ninth-tier demon beast!" Elder Qiu's face was pale.
He had already affixed a Swift Wind Talisman to the puppet, and was also holding a Teleportation Talisman in his hand.
Su Qing really didn't want to give up; this was a Golden-Eyed Ape.
Once she obtains the Golden-Eyed Ape's eyes, her mission in the Snowy Forest will be complete.
But……
We can't beat them.
"snort!"
Just then, a cold snort came from Gu Yueli's clone.
"Just a mere golden-eyed ape!"
A flash of purple lightning appeared on Gu Yueli's clone, and he vanished from his spot. Then, Gu Yueli reappeared behind the Golden-Eyed Ape.
"Sizzle!"
A flash of purple light, and the Golden-Eyed Ape trembled all over and collapsed to the ground!
Sold out instantly!
Golden Eyes, whose combat power was comparable to that of a ninth-tier demon beast, was instantly killed by Gu Yueli's clone!
Elder Qiu's hand trembled, and the two talismans in his hand fell to the ground.
“Goodness gracious disciple, what’s the point of running away from a mere Golden-Eyed Ape! Elder Qiu, you’re utterly useless. Humph, you shouldn’t lead the team next time,” said Gu Yue Li’s clone.
Elder Qiu remained silent.
I never expected the patriarch to dote on his disciple so much.
If you can't beat them, just take matters into your own hands...
This golden-eyed ape died a rather ignominious death. After cultivating in the snowy forest for hundreds of years, wielding a large staff made of sun crystal, it finally managed to carve out its own territory.
He raised a nest of ice marrow worms on his own territory, just so he could have enough to eat every day!
Who would have thought that a group of cultivators would arrive one day and wipe out an entire nest of Ice Marrow Worms, leaving not even the egg-laying king behind?
He was carrying a stick, intending to teach the other person a lesson, but before he could even make a move, he fell down!
"Elder Qiu, that big stick made of solar crystal looks pretty good, you should keep it. I'll take the eyes of this golden-eyed ape, and the rest can be divided among us," Su Qing said.
Elder Qiu's eyes widened in astonishment.
A sun crystal! Such a big piece of sun crystal!
Sun Crystal is a material used in weapon crafting. Adding a small piece of Sun Crystal when crafting a weapon is enough to upgrade it by one level.
How many weapons could be forged from such a large sun crystal?
If it were about crafting puppets...
Elder Qiu quickly put the sun crystal away.
The golden-eyed ape's nails, teeth, and bones were all excellent materials, and Elder Qiu didn't let any of them go to waste. In the end, he even skinned the golden-eyed ape completely.
Elder Qiu was already dreaming of using these materials to recreate a puppet golden-eyed ape.
Su Qing put the eyes back into the box. Having obtained the heart of the seventh-tier demon beast Thunder Tiger, and now with the eyes of the eighth-tier Golden-Eyed Ape, her training in the Snowfield Forest was now a perfect end.
Elder Qiu had acquired a large amount of materials and had no desire to continue.
Therefore, Elder Qiu decided to return now!
They stumbled and struggled their way into the snowy forest, but returning the way they came was much easier.
Passing by Snow Spirit Hill, Su Qing took the Snow Wolf King away.
A month later, they returned to the Xuanling Sect.
Su Qing, carrying Lei Hu's heart, the Golden-Eyed Ape's eyes, and a whole bunch of other materials, planned to go to Protector Jiang to refine Ye Qingqing's body.
"So, you went to the Snowy Forest just for this girl?" Gu Yueli called out to Su Qing.
Su Qing nodded and said, "Master, this was my best friend before I joined the Xuanling Sect. Because of me, she was killed by Chu Yuntai of the Wuji Sect. Although I avenged her, she can't come back to life! I can only temporarily seal her soul and make a puppet body for her."
Gu Yueli sighed and said, "Disciple, you are truly loyal and righteous! However, why didn't you tell your master about this sooner? If you had handed her over to Protector Jiang, he could at most have crafted a puppet body and placed her soul inside, but your master has a way to make her the same as before."
Su Qing's eyes lit up immediately.
"Master, really? Can she be resurrected?" Su Qing asked excitedly.
“Actually, it’s not really a resurrection.” Gu Yueli sighed and said, “Once a person dies, even I can’t bring them back to life. I can only try my best to keep her the same as before.”
"Come with me," Gu Yueli said, leading Su Qing to the backyard of the blessed land.
This was Su Qing's first time here, and there was a waterfall here, behind which was a cave.
Upon entering the cave, Su Qing immediately noticed the array drawn on the ground.
“This is the Five Elements Soul Returning Formation,” Gu Yueli said. “Fortunately, she had a wisp of her soul being nurtured in her dantian; otherwise, even I would have been helpless.”
Gu Yueli instructed Su Qing to place Ye Qingqing's body within the Five Elements Soul Returning Array.
“A wisp of a soul, even if she has a body, will only become an idiot. Only by summoning back her five souls and seven spirits can she be fully awake.”
Su Qing nodded. This Five Elements Soul Returning Array was for summoning Ye Qingqing's soul.
"It should take at least five days, and at most ten days, for her soul to return," Gu Yueli said.
"Master, I'll stay here and guard this place," Su Qing said.
Gu Yueli nodded, feeling even more that taking this disciple was a wonderful thing.
The Five Elements Soul Returning Array lit up, enveloping Ye Qingqing in the light of the five elements. As long as her soul was still wandering outside, it would be attracted by this wisp of ghostly spirit.
Su Qing sat cross-legged, meditating and waiting. She could sense the strangeness of this Five Elements Soul Returning Array.
In the snowy forest, Su Qing set up many formations. Just by looking at the Five Elements Soul Returning Formation, she already understood the formation. It wouldn't be difficult for her to set up an exact replica.
In fact, the Five Elements Soul Returning Array is somewhat similar to the array on the Yin-Yang Banner, since both are used for summoning souls.
However, the Five Elements Soul Returning Array is for saving people, while the Yin-Yang Banner is for summoning, imprisoning, and utilizing wandering souls.
A faint, ghostly light emanated from Ye Qingqing's dantian, and her remaining wisp of soul slowly floated up, condensing in the air to form the shape of Ye Qingqing.
Although it was just a phantom, looking at her reminded Su Qing of their time in Anyang City, when they were both just insignificant concubine daughters in their families.
Then she remembered that the Ye family had sent Ye Qingqing away, and Su Qing had gone to rescue her...
If we had paid more attention to Ye Qingqing back then, she wouldn't have died.
Thinking of this, Su Qing's tears streamed down her face.
"Qingqing, I will definitely bring you back to life!"
