Chapter 544 The Painful Training Ends
Zhong Cai stood on the deck, looking ahead.
That was the Lingxian Sect, the place where he and Lao Wu had always lived.
Qianyuan Island is located there.
·
Not long after, Xiao Zinuo came out and informed everyone that anyone who still needed treatment could only stay on the warship and could not enter the sect.
After all, there are too many people and too many opinions.
In the past, if there were only a few patients, they would be taken back to their residences by the alchemists they sought for temporary treatment, which was fine since the places were small and easy to supervise.
However, there are still many patients, so it's best to leave them outside, just like before near the Red Malignant Mountain Range.
Most patients had no objections.
Since they are the ones seeking help now, the alchemists will naturally do whatever is convenient for them.
The disciples of the Temple of War are trustworthy, but since the other patients are all staying on the outer warships, and most of the alchemists also have to stay on the warships to treat them, they simply decided not to go back to the temple for the sake of convenience.
However, it is the fellow disciples and relatives of these War God Temple disciples who are close by, making it convenient to visit them and easy to raise any resources they need.
The disciples from both families who had recovered and had no further missions returned to their respective residences.
If the alchemists want to go back to retrieve some resources or take a break, that's fine too.
Many alchemists who have become numb from being on the battlefield will indeed take a few days off to go back and recuperate before returning.
If alchemists do not wish to continue treatment at all, they can leave, but patients already in their care must be transferred to other alchemists to ensure that subsequent treatment is not affected.
Of course, such alchemists are very few in number—unless they have been working on healing to the point of exhaustion, they will not give up the "experience pack" in their hands if they still have any strength left.
·
Zhong Cai glanced at the gate of the Lingxian Sect, yawned, and leaned lazily against the railing.
He didn't want to go back.
The resources he needs are mostly in the ancient city, and he would never put them on Qianyuan Island.
More importantly, his husband, Mr. Wu, is not here at all; he's off to another battlefield.
Since Lao Wu isn't here, what's the point of him going back? Is he just going to look at that empty island and feel melancholy all by himself?
Let's forget about it then!
Zhong Cai is now thinking about whether she can finish dealing with her current patients as soon as possible and also go to see Lao Wu.
It's probably not going to work if we wait for Lao Wu to come and see him.
Unless the fighting on that side ends first...
Thinking of this, Zhong Cai sighed again and turned to look at her master, who had also come out to relax at some point.
"Master, why isn't the battle over with the Nine Sounds Sect finished yet?"
Sang Yunchu sighed as he looked at his beloved disciple, who had a melancholy expression on his face.
"Cai'er, the battle between the two major forces is not something that can be easily ended. A little over a year is a very short time."
Sang Yunchu knew very well that the reason their side ended so quickly was largely due to the ancient city of his two disciples.
The relentless bombardment resolved many troublesome issues that would otherwise have taken a lot of time.
Furthermore, it's not just one Tongtian against another on their side. Sect Master Ji Zhan himself possesses immense power, and Palace Master Pei's combat strength is unmatched among Tongtian of the same level.
Add to that the overwhelming military might of the War God Temple and the unrestricted supplies of the Spirit Immortal Sect…
These are things that the Nine Sounds Sect cannot do.
Therefore, it's quite rare for this to be completed in just over a year.
It's understandable that things can't end at the Nine Sounds Sect for the time being.
·
Zhong Cai actually understood this principle. His complaints were only because he missed Lao Wu too much.
Sang Yunchu patted Zhong Cai's head and said with a smile, "Don't look so lovesick. It's creepy."
Zhong Cai pouted, turned her head to look at her master, and asked, "Master, don't you miss Master Jiang?"
Sang Yunchu raised her delicate eyebrows: "Your Master Jiang and I aren't that clingy."
Zhong Cai gave a light hum: "I call this passionate love."
Sang Yunchu couldn't help but chuckle: "Yeah, it's pretty hot."
After the master and apprentice exchanged a few words, Zhong Cai's mood improved somewhat.
He still missed her, but he also knew that simply missing her wouldn't help...
Zhong Cai stretched and said solemnly, "I'm going to watch those patients do their pain training."
Sang Yunchu sighed helplessly, patted his apprentice on the shoulder again, and said, "Go."
Zhong Cai then jogged off.
·
After the fleet dispersed, soon only a level nine warship and many small flying artifacts remained outside the Lingxian Sect.
Inside the flying artifacts, most of the people are the patients' "family members".
These family members often board the ship to take care of their companions and relatives.
Several months later, Zhong Cai's many Yuanhun patients had all undergone sufficient training in excruciating pain.
They endured the torment, but finally managed to survive the pain of having their souls divided tenfold.
Some even tried leveraged by eleven or twelve times, just to be on the safe side, hoping to at least weather the storm for a while.
It can be said that it is extremely resilient.
During this period, the soul-strengthening medicine carefully prepared by Zhong Cai also played a significant role.
As the pain intensified, these primordial spirits were practically immersed in these medicinal liquids, completely submerged in the soul-stabilizing liquid, leaving only their forearms exposed to suffer the torment of the liquid that caused them excruciating pain.
In this way, even if the Yuan Soul shows signs of collapse, it will usually collapse first in the arm, leaving room for quick repair.
Moreover, when the training intensity reaches about ten times, they no longer train in rows together. Instead, to prevent them from falling apart, Zhong Cai supervises them one by one, paying attention to their every change.
Thanks to Zhong Cai's meticulous care and dedication, the Yuan Souls managed to persevere, and none of them completely collapsed in the end.
In addition, the amount of resources consumed was extremely large, even exceeding the previous treatments. Some people even ran out of money and wrote IOUs to Zhong Cai... But no cultivator gave up and was willing to make the best preparations for the Yuan Souls.
It was because Zhong Cai, her family, and her companions had done so much for them that the Yuanhun became even more determined.
Think about it, how much time did the seventh-level Pill King spend on them? He also wasted a lot of resources, not to mention the cultivators and contracted souls who are destined to owe him money. It will probably be a long time before he can recoup his investment.
Think about it again. The resources that the friends and family of the Free Soul have spent could have nurtured several more Spirit Transformations, yet they refuse to give up on them, and some are even willing to take on huge debts... How can they let their friends and family's hard work go to waste?
The wills of the numerous primordial spirits were constantly tempered, and after enduring such terrifying pain little by little for a great deal of time, they finally all survived...
Their relatives and friends, seeing this, accompanied and encouraged them all the way, and were naturally heartbroken.
At the same time, they are also proud of these primordial spirits.
·
That day, after checking on the condition of the many primordial spirits, Zhong Cai nodded in satisfaction and said, "It should be ready by now. You can rest for three to five days, and then I will divide your souls."
Upon hearing this, many primordial spirits and several cultivators couldn't help but look up.
"Is it really okay?"
"Is it finally okay...?"
"Zhong Danwang, is it really true that there won't be any more problems?"
Zhong Cai listened to their conversation and waited until they quieted down before speaking again: "According to my calculations, it should be possible. However, as you probably know, this is the first time we've handled a soul splitting incident, so we can't guarantee that everything will go perfectly."
The numerous Yuan Souls and cultivators nodded slightly.
They understand this principle, but they can't help feeling uneasy.
Zhong Cai smiled and continued, "Soul splitting only takes a moment. I can't guarantee it will be ten times more painful, but if you can get through that moment, you will definitely succeed. Have more faith in yourselves. Since you've endured the excruciating pain of the past few days, you should be able to persevere no matter how painful that moment may be."
Many of the spirits made a "deep breath" gesture, clearly trying to calm themselves down.
Zhong Cai still smiled and said, "If you get through this ordeal, the tempering of your will will be extremely strong. Even if you start cultivating again in the future, many obstacles will hardly be obstacles at all. In fact—" He looked at everyone, "As you all know, willpower is very important in cultivation. You are all at the Spirit Transformation Realm now, and you are all heading towards Nirvana in the future. This ordeal you have gone through should also help you in your future Nirvana."
He looked around.
"Your primordial spirits have received great kindness from your relatives and friends, but if you can achieve Nirvana as soon as possible in the future, perhaps you will be able to protect your relatives and friends and provide them with assistance."
Many of the Yuan Souls knew this principle, but when Zhong Cai said it this way, hearing it again only strengthened their resolve.
Then, Zhong Cai didn't say anything more. After asking the many souls, he decided to start dividing their souls into parts three days later.
Of course, just in case, a large quantity of more potent soul-stabilizing elixir should also be prepared and distributed to relatives and friends in turn.
Many of the spirits and their accompanying relatives and friends were also very nervous.
But they really need to adjust their mindset over these three days, waiting for the harsh reality to come.
·
Over the course of three days, Zhong Cai refined some medicinal liquids and went to the simulation room to test the feel of the materials.
He trained for more than two days and then gave himself eight hours of sleep.
Finally, Zhong Cai had rested enough.
·
On the third day, Zhong Cai and many other Yuan Souls arrived at the research room on time.
This one started with Fang Hua.
Despite his seemingly frail appearance, Fang Hua is always the first to take any step in any endeavor.
Fang Hua's willpower was stronger than the other Yuan Souls from the very beginning.
Fang Xiao took a deep breath, trying to remain calm, and stood by.
Zhong Cai walked up to Fang Hua, who was lying flat in the Soul-Stabilizing Elixir, and slowly applied a special elixir to his palm.
