They have the upper hand today, but that doesn't mean any one of them has the strength to annihilate the alien race. In reality, the alien race can kill a prodigy with a single slap.
The group of geniuses, who had been fighting with immense excitement and exhilaration, finally realized that they had almost done something foolish. Thanks to Alchemist Zishu, although several of them were killed by the alien race, the alien race did not gain any advantage from the Alchemist. It was truly exhilarating.
However, many people were injured during the battle, and some of the injuries were quite serious.
"Line up according to the severity of your injuries, let me take a look."
"That's wonderful, thank you very much, Master Zishu."
"Why fight so hard? As long as we're alive, we can always fight again. If we lose our lives, what will we have left to fight the alien races with? If we can't win, we should run." After bandaging up a prodigy whose thigh had a bloody hole, Zishu continued to treat the wounds of this group of troublesome fellows.
These idiots must have done it on purpose! They thought I wouldn't let them die while I was around, but these various injuries are really a headache.
After finally dealing with the dozen or so seriously injured prodigies, Zishu breathed a sigh of relief and said fiercely, "Not a single spiritual herb can be missing."
"Understood, Master Zishu." Compared to life, elixirs are external things.
"Don't leave today, I'm afraid the alien race will ambush you on the way."
"Master Zishu is right. The despicable and shameless alien races could indeed do such a thing. We should rest and recuperate first."
Zishu walked up to Ye Liusha and said, "You, come with me!"
Ye Liusha stood up and returned to the cave with Zishu: "Relax, I need to use my spiritual power to check your condition, don't resist."
"Yes." Ye Liusha's face was tense, clearly very nervous. The moment Zishu's spiritual power entered his meridians, he was almost attacked; this had become an instinct for Ye Liusha.
Zishu investigated carefully for a long time before he finally figured out the situation of Ye Liusha. It was a bit tricky!
"How did you get into such a mess?"
Ye Liusha remained silent with a cold expression: "Your internal injuries are very serious, your meridians are all knotted, do you know that?"
Night Sands nodded.
"And there are old injuries and hidden wounds from before. Healing them will be very troublesome and will cost a lot of spirit stones."
Ye Liusha took out a special box from his ring and handed it to Zishu: "May I use this as payment for the consultation?"
Zishu opened the box only a crack before immediately closing it, looking at Ye Liusha with a shocked expression: "You really want to give it to me?"
“I’ve inquired and found out you don’t have a different kind of fire. This fire is very important to you. I happen to be out of spirit stones, so I’ll give it to you.”
"Since you've said so, I'll accept it and I can't go back on my word. Don't worry, I'll take care of your injuries. I'll make sure you're back to your old self before the third round of the competition."
Zishu was in a good mood, how could he not be? What Ye Liusha took out was the Fire of Wood, a kind of spiritual fire of heaven and earth. Wood generates fire, and the formation of the Fire of Wood requires many conditions. Only a thousand-year-old or even ten-thousand-year-old spiritual tree that survives thunder and fire can give birth to a tiny bit of the Fire of Wood. Then, through Jingli's long years of accumulation and cultivation, it can slowly take shape and eventually develop intelligence.
Wood-in-Fire is an excellent flame for refining weapons and pills, especially for pills, as it can preserve the spiritual essence of medicinal herbs to the maximum extent and increase the success rate of pill formation. Ye Liusha's move is indeed extravagant; such a large ball of Wood-in-Fire, he plans to cultivate it into his natal spirit fire and burn that bitch Xiu Qiyu to death.
Zishu harbored great resentment towards Xiu Qiyu.
"Consider it a favor I owe you. From now on, if you need any pills, I'll refine them for you free of charge," Zishu said solemnly. This was an incredibly generous offer, and many martial artists outside were eager to have it. "Zishu, the alchemist, I want one too!"
With Zishu's promise, Ye Liusha could practically die even if he wanted to. How wonderful! From now on, Zishu could refine all sorts of elixirs for him, whether for cultivation, healing, or advancement. Sigh! The most important elixir for cultivation was solved just like that, so why wasn't this kid showing any excitement or enthusiasm?
Thank you.
"I should be thanking you."
Zishu turned around and took out a bathtub from his spatial belt, instructing Ye Liusha: "Go and fetch some water."
Ye Liusha stood up, picked up the wooden bucket that Zishu had placed on the ground, and left.
Zishu took out the Supreme Elixir and began refining a healing elixir. Ye Liusha's injuries were quite severe, and he needed to first use a gentle medicinal elixir to bring his body to its optimal state before he could proceed with the next step of treatment.
This is the most effective and quickest-acting medicine that Zishu chose; the only side effect is that the process is a bit painful. This kid should be able to handle it!
Zishu poured out the prepared medicinal liquid and waited for it to cool.
Ye Liusha quickly filled the bathtub with water. Zishu circulated his fire-attribute true energy to heat the water, then poured in the medicinal liquid. After the red medicinal liquid entered the hot water, it quickly turned the hot water blood red and started bubbling, looking rather terrifying.
"Alright, you go in and soak first, then come out when the water turns clear."
"Okay." Ye Liusha nodded, took off his outer clothes, and jumped directly into the bathtub. The scream that Zishu expected did not occur. Ye Liusha just frowned and circulated his power to absorb the spiritual herbs in the bathtub.
What a monster! He almost thought he had ruined the potion!
Zishu shook his head, took out the Supreme Deity, and continued to refine the medicinal liquid. He refined three portions and then stopped.
Two hours later, the Night Sands emerged, and the water in the bathtub had turned transparent.
How are you feeling?
"It's effective; my muscles and tendons don't hurt as much anymore."
"Bear with it, twice a day, for three days."
Thank you.
"Now I'm going to refine the pills for internal use. You will protect me."
"Alright." Ye Liusha put on his outer robe, took his sword, and sat at the entrance of the cave. His aloof expression and thin figure made Zishu feel a little sad. He should hurry up and heal this guy!
Zishu quickly refined two batches of elixirs to strengthen the body's foundation and nourish the vital energy, then tossed them to Ye Liusha: "Here, have some."
Then he returned to his cave to prepare to refine the Wood Fire. It was safer to refine such a rare and precious treasure as soon as possible. With the Wood Fire, his achievement of becoming an Emperor-level Alchemist was definitely not just empty talk.
Upon opening the box, Zishu slowly released his spiritual energy. This ball of fire within the wood was about the size of a fist, and it was unknown how long it had been nurtured. It was entirely green, and the small green flames radiated vitality and were very lively, but they did not possess any sentience.
Zishu's immense spiritual power transformed directly into a net, gently enveloping the Wood Fire. Perhaps it was because his ethereal body had such high affinity, or perhaps it was because their attributes were perfectly compatible, but the Wood Fire was smoothly drawn into Zishu's dantian, where it floated quietly and beautifully.
