Yan Yinyue and Ning Xiu were originally quite curious about who controlled the Immortal Palace, but if the disciples of those sects really came looking for them, they might rob them first, no matter who they were.
Seeing that Qi Zhiheng and the others were unwilling to stay, Yan Yinyue decided to leave with them.
There were many people around them who, like them, planned to leave, while others wanted to stay and watch the excitement.
Qi Zhiheng ignored the matter and boarded a flying artifact with the others, leaving the Dragon-Slaying Battlefield.
Qi Zhiheng and Yang Yitian were like eyes. Yang Yitian, the source of all the excitement, had already left. No matter how much those who remained wanted to watch the show, in the end, it would all be for nothing.
Yan Yinyue seems to have had a good harvest this time. She is free of injuries and her cultivation level has increased by a small stage.
Ning Xiu even offered Qi Zhiheng several portions of spiritual herbs, and Qi Zhiheng, not wanting to take them for nothing, exchanged them for pills.
There was no teleportation array to return this time, so they could only take a flying artifact to the nearest city and then use their teleportation array to return to their original place.
Upon returning to Ascension City, everything remained as usual.
Qi Zhiheng also noticed that Xiong Shuang had managed the city quite well, and nothing had happened during the two years they were away.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. Most cultivators above the Mahayana stage have entered the secret realm just like them, so things outside won't be too complicated.
Qi Zhiheng's plan was to go into seclusion to refine medicine and create the most suitable pills for Chu Lin.
In fact, he wanted to make the spiritual energy in the space more concentrated. How to make the spiritual energy more concentrated? Of course, he would bury the spiritual veins of this acidic time into the space.
When Chu Huaifeng learned that Qi Zhiheng's first act upon returning was to refine pills for his son, he was so moved that he almost burst into tears. Fortunately, his son was right there and stopped him from making such an embarrassing move.
Chu Huaifeng solemnly said to Qi Zhiheng, "City Lord, rest assured! I will definitely help you guard this city until you come out."
Qi Zhiheng felt a little embarrassed by such thanks. Going to refine pills was just a pretext for him, but the time for refining pills couldn't be too short.
Qi Zhiheng went into seclusion under such circumstances.
He first entered the space and infused the spiritual veins he had obtained in this secret realm into it.
Although the quantity obtained this time was less, they were all top-grade spiritual veins, and their effects were not just one or two times that of high-grade spiritual veins.
A mist quickly appeared within the space. Qi Zhiheng then divided the space again, emptying it of all spiritual energy, leaving not a single trace.
The entire process took a month and a half. This spatial anomaly made the spiritual energy in the space much richer, and at the same time, it also created a place without spiritual energy.
This is precisely why Qi Zhiheng chose to install the Immortal Spirit Vein.
They'll ascend sooner or later anyway, and they might need immortal spirit stones then. Who knows if they'll be short of money when they first ascend? Preparing now is better than nothing.
Qi Zhiheng entered the divided land and took out the Immortal Spirit Vein.
The aura of the Immortal Spirit Vein even alarmed Yuehua and Yangzhen, who even thought that Qi Zhiheng had ascended to immortality.
It turned out to be just a celestial vein, which was still somewhat disappointing. Y, X, D, J.
After finishing these tasks, Qi Zhiheng hurried off to refine elixirs. Chu Lin was still waiting for him to save his life.
Without saying a word, Qi Zhiheng immediately began refining pills. Two kinds of pills were quickly produced, and both were even top-grade pills.
He took out two pills and handed them to Chu Huaifeng, who was diligently guarding the city. Chu Huaifeng didn't delay at all.
After Chu Lin took the elixir, his condition improved significantly.
Before the Southern Continent's team arrived, Qi Zhiheng also helped Chu Lin research ways to treat him.
Qi Zhiheng's enthusiasm moved Chu Huaifeng deeply, to the point that he almost wanted to stay and work for Qi Zhiheng for free.
Meanwhile, outside, Yang Yitian's actions sparked a bloodbath. The major sects became suspicious of each other, leading to several large-scale battles and numerous casualties. Later, due to the inability to find news of the Immortal Palace, the matter subsided once again.
Knowing that the time spent in the Celestial Palace had temporarily come to an end, Qi Zhiheng felt somewhat relieved.
In the following years, Qi Zhiheng continued to train his subordinates. The team he brought with him was too weak. Since they were essentially the same team, Qi Zhiheng prepared more pills for them.
Chu Lin's body is also being regulated. Qi Zhiheng found spiritual herbs in Yang Yitian's immortal palace that could repair spiritual roots in the guest courtyard. Qi Zhiheng also asked Chu Lin if he wanted to try it.
Chu Lin naturally wanted his spiritual root to return to normal, so he immediately agreed to let Qi Zhiheng treat him.
Qi Zhiheng emphasized repeatedly, "This is my first time. If I fail, your spiritual root will be shattered."
Chu Lin said firmly, "Lord Qi, rest assured, I can take responsibility for my choice."
Qi Zhiheng said, "If we fail this time, all those pills I got will be wasted. You'd better think this through."
"I've thought it through," Chu Lin replied.
Chu Huaifeng watched from the side, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
Qi Zhiheng glanced at him: "The price of the pill is waived. Now I allow you to speak and you are allowed to object. Fellow Daoist Chu, do you have any objections?"
Chu Huaifeng paused for a moment, then shook his head, indicating that Bai Sohu himself had no objection.
After Chu Huaifeng had no family to attend to, Qi Zhiheng laid out the prepared pills in a row.
The first pills I took were for shattering spiritual roots; they were Qi Zhiheng's improved version.
Chu Lin picked up a pill and swallowed it without hesitation.
Before long, his face turned white, his hair turned white, and he was covered in cold sweat. Not long after, when the other party checked again, his spiritual root had only a tiny bit left.
Qi Zhiheng took out another pill, one that could reshape spiritual roots, and fed it to Chu Lin.
After taking the pill, Chu Lin, who had been holding back his groans, began to moan softly.
Chu Lin was always able to endure pain; he wouldn't have made a sound unless he really couldn't bear it.
Qi Zhiheng did not intend to relieve his pain, but said, "If you fail, all the pain will be for nothing. Don't let all your efforts be in vain."
Chu Lin nodded painfully. He could already feel that his spiritual root was recovering, which was a good sign. However, he didn't know if his spiritual root would grow back in its original incomplete form. As his spiritual root grew, he was also very uneasy.
After two days of spiritual root growth, Chu Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least for now, the spiritual root he had grown was good.
The incomplete appearance of the past is no longer visible.
Qi Zhiheng also breathed a sigh of relief. This was good, at least he had figured out a way to solve the problem of incomplete spiritual roots.
"Your spiritual root is still very fragile. Don't cultivate too vigorously these next few days. Take your time to adapt to the spiritual energy. As for your dantian, I'll think of another way to see if I can repair it again." After leaving a bottle of pills and these words of advice, Qi Zhiheng returned to his research.
After the incident with the bronze drum, Chu Lin and his son felt even more at ease with Qi Zhiheng.
Qi Zhiheng then consulted many books. Since his dantian could be filled by the Thousand Weaving Pill, he thought he might try to replenish it. However, the idea of destroying his dantian and having it grow back was a bit scary. He himself was not sure if his dantian could grow back after it was gone.
Qi Zhiheng did want to find some heinous people to practice on first, but how could someone who is heinous be born with a damaged dantian?
Qi Zhiheng sighed and continued to peruse the classic texts.
Yang Yitian said, "I remember there seem to be quite a few books in the Immortal Palace. Would you like to go in and take a look?"
Qi Zhiheng had indeed read through almost all the books on elixirs and medical theory in his attic. It wouldn't be bad to be able to read other books.
He then thought, "Books in the Immortal Palace? I remember that the master of the Immortal Palace was more knowledgeable in talismans and formations, so there shouldn't be many books in the study."
Yang Yitian said, "The books are still there, but they are in a different location. They are in the library of the Immortal Palace. The place you mentioned with books is probably just the study, which usually contains ordinary books."
"Why didn't you say so sooner?" Qi Zhiheng glanced at him.
Yang Yitian shrugged: "You didn't ask either."
"Let's go in and take a look." Qi Zhiheng's mood suddenly improved; there were still many pills he had been longing for in the Immortal Palace.
The Immortal Palace was in the hands of Yang Yitian and the little black snake. With a slurp, Qi Zhiheng and Yang Yitian disappeared from the spot.
The two entered the celestial palace.
What impressed Qi Zhiheng most about this place was the array formations and restrictions, which made him extremely irritated.
Now that Yang Yitian has control, he won't have to worry about getting any more pills he wants.
Led by Yang Yitian, Qi Zhiheng entered the library. Compared to his shabby little attic, this library was simply luxurious.
Qi Zhiheng looked at the rows of books and quickly found some information about the leakage of the dantian.
The solutions Qi Zhiheng saw most often were stopgap measures that only addressed the symptoms, not the root cause. These were not very useful, so he could only continue searching for something more effective.
Yang Yitian was also looking for some books.
Qi Zhiheng rarely saw him reading books other than those on talismans, so he asked, "Reading books on talismans?"
Yang Yitian shook his head: "No, this is a book about souls. I've been thinking about it lately. My remnant souls are all ordinary people, and now that I've entered the path of cultivation, they probably can't reincarnate anymore. In a hundred years, they should all be dead. How can I find those souls then? So I wanted to see if there was a solution on the tree."
Although Qi Zhiheng was somewhat surprised, he praised her, saying, "It's a great improvement that you could think of these things."
