Now the ninth-level monster and the ninth-grade divine pill have gone to the sky to fight, so the battlefield below is left to Li Xiuchen to clean up.
So, Li Xiuchen found a dead eighth-grade demon beast on the battlefield and took its inner elixir. Then he saw an unlucky Nascent Soul cultivator who had made money from the dead and took the person's storage ring, which contained a broken Heavenly Grade sword.
Then, Li Xiuchen hid aside and watched the battle.
The two fought for a whole day and night. The ninth-grade divine pill was already at a disadvantage, but the ninth-level monster was not much better off. Taking advantage of its last breath, the divine pill launched a pill fire attack, seriously injuring the monster. It suddenly turned into a pill and fell into the vast Ten Thousand Beasts Ridge.
——Li Xiuchen could find him even like this?
Yes, he really found it.
Even though the ninth-rank demon beast was seriously injured, Li Xiuchen was no match for it, so he turned and walked away. He thought he wouldn't be able to reap the benefits of this opportunity, but who knew that after climbing a mountain, he stepped on something hard. He looked down and dug in the soil: Oh my god! A particularly bright pill!
The intricate and gorgeous elixir patterns wrapped around the elixir are so obvious that even an outsider can tell at a glance that this is definitely an elixir of the eighth rank or above!
Thinking about the vast Wanshou Ridge, with its countless mountains and miles of land, he never expected that this ninth-grade divine pill would restore its human form and 30% of its medicinal power in just three days and escape from here. Only an hour later, it was picked up by Li Xiuchen.
While the elixir was seriously injured, Li Xiuchen wiped out the scholar's consciousness and truly took possession of the elixir.
These are Luo Jianqing’s biggest purpose in coming to Wanshou Ridge this time.
A ninth-grade divine elixir! Such a pill would definitely be of great use. The book says it's a healing elixir, and Li Xiuchen, by repeatedly absorbing a tiny bit of the elixir's aura, would instantly replenish his health. So, if this elixir were given to Xuan Lingzi, would the severe injuries he'd suffered from repeatedly severing his primordial spirit for his own sake...would they be any better?
Along the way, Luo Jianqing followed Li Xiuchen and watched him obtain treasures again and again.
Sometimes Li Xiuchen would face life-threatening situations, but Luo Jianqing didn't need to worry at all, as he always managed to escape danger and obtain many treasures. Luo Jianqing didn't even look at most of these treasures, but once he found one that caught his eye, he would hide in the dark and snatch it away, leaving poor Li Xiuchen completely unaware.
In this way, the two of them walked one in front and one behind for another ten days.
Almost reaching the depths of Myriad Beasts Ridge, Li Xiuchen suddenly stopped, hesitantly swaying from side to side, refusing to move forward. Luo Jianqing, unfazed, sat cross-legged to cultivate, comprehending the laws governing the universe while diligently absorbing spiritual energy.
Li Xiuchen waited here for two days, then finally continued on his way, feeling depressed. Luo Jianqing felt a little surprised, not quite understanding what Li Xiuchen was waiting for, but his confusion didn't last long. Li Xiuchen had only taken a few steps when he suddenly ran into the slender beauty lying beside him, seriously injured.
Li Xiuchen's eyes lit up: "Miss Mu, what's wrong with you?"
Luo Jianqing who was following behind: "..."
At night, by the campfire.
Mu Ruorong slowly opened her eyes and suddenly saw a familiar face. She instinctively drew her twin swords, but Li Xiuchen calmly held her hands down and said with a smile, "Miss Mu, I was walking down the street today when I saw you seriously injured, so I brought you back. Your injuries are serious, and I don't know... what happened?"
Mu Ruorong's throat was hoarse. She looked at Li Xiuchen with complicated eyes. After a long moment, she whispered, "I encountered a fifth-level Sky-Marked Black Venomous Spider earlier. It was so powerful that its venom splashed on me while I was running away, which is why I suddenly fainted."
Li Xiuchen had known about these things for a long time. A hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and then he immediately asked nervously, "A fifth-level Sky Pattern Black Poison Spider? What should we do then?"
Mu Ruorong had already disliked Li Xiuchen back at the inn. She was a meticulous person, having long observed his expression. But now, she was helpless. She could still move below her wrist, but the venom splashed on her other parts, causing her excruciating pain and slowly festering.
These wounds must be treated immediately! However, the poisoned parts are all unable to move. Even if Mu Ruorong has medicine, she can't apply it to herself.
In the depths of this desolate Wanshou Ridge, not a single cultivator can be seen in three days!
Mu Ruorong had originally thought she was doomed, but she unexpectedly saw someone. But... it was Li Xiuchen. Between her chastity and her life, Mu Ruorong struggled to make a decision. Tears welled up in her eyes as she suddenly remembered the message from the Nascent Soul senior at the inn.
"If you don't even cherish yourself, how can you expect others to cherish you?"
From then on, Mu Ruorong took off her revealing clothes and changed into the most common female cultivator's clothes. She had traded her beauty for ten years of convenience, but now that she had reached the Foundation Establishment stage, she could protect herself and her body...
However, fate always goes against one's will. Mu Ruorong had strayed deep into the Myriad Beast Ridge. She had already planned to leave when she encountered a poisonous spider. Now it was a choice between life and death. Mu Ruorong's mouth felt bitter. She lowered her head, the campfire shining brightly on her long black hair.
After a long moment, Mu Ruorong muttered in a hoarse voice, "There's a bottle of medicine in my storage ring that can slightly delay the onset of the venom. Li... Fellow Daoist Li, could you please apply the medicine to me?"
Li Xiuchen's eyes lit up and he said without hesitation, "Okay!"
