Chapter 87 Changing the ending is not a one-person job
The Mysterious Heaven Realm opens once every ten years, and countless people have been there, but no one has ever been able to bring out the sacred lake water from it.
"I tried using water from the sacred lake. I collected the water in a cup and used it to water the plants. Although a lot of it was lost due to evaporation and dilution, some of it was still usable..."
Before Mu Jianjian could finish explaining, Linghu Zhuoyu asked anxiously, "Has Sister told anyone else about this?"
Why is everyone so concerned about her?!
Does she look that stupid?
"No, don't worry," Mu Jianjian shook her head, "I just told you and Uncle Guo about it."
Linghu Zhuoyu was finally relieved, and at the same time, his heart felt as if it had been filled with something, and he felt an endless sense of satisfaction.
My sister really doesn't guard up against him... Such a cute and innocent sister.
A gentle gleam flashed across the boy's heterochromatic eyes.
However, with the water from the sacred lake, he could try out many different medicines and poisons.
——
As the days passed while the remaining poison was being cleared, news of Master Mu's poisoning eventually spread. For a time, the Grand Elder's faction reached the peak of its prestige within the sect. However, some discerning disciples noticed the change in leadership of the Xuan Shuang Sect and were still waiting for Master Mu to wake up.
However, compared to the number of disciples who have turned to the Grand Elder, the number is very small.
Mu Jianjian didn't react much to how things were going, and continued to stay in the traditional Chinese medicine hall, holding a book and recognizing herbs. Occasionally, when she encountered something she didn't understand, she would ask Linghu Zhuoyu and Uncle Guo.
She actually wanted to be like Yueyue in the original book, guiding the disciples to rebel against the Grand Elder's faction. However, in reality, Yueyue's strength had already reached the fifth level of Core Formation by the middle stage, giving her the ability to rebel.
However, due to the early advancement of the plot, she is only at the fourth level of Foundation Establishment.
On the other hand, once Mu's father wakes up, it will be a good time to clean up a wave of Xuan Shuang Sect disciples.
Mu Jianjian touched her heart, which had been shattered to pieces, and only felt a little comforted when Linghu Zhuoyu refined a first-grade healing pill using the water of the sacred lake.
Although this continent does not have a precise classification of physicians, it does have a clear classification of grades for the pills refined by alchemists.
From Rank 9 to Rank 1, the higher the rank of the elixir, the better the therapeutic effect.
Mu Jianjian had always known that Linghu Zhuoyu was a genius in alchemy and medicine, but she did not expect that he would refine the water from the sacred lake so quickly and put it into the pill, and even refine it perfectly.
The first-grade pills infused with the water of the sacred lake are significantly enhanced in quality compared to the original first-grade pills. If this small bottle were to flow into the mainland, it would definitely cause a bloodbath.
She looked at the pill in her hand and recalled the expression and face of Yu Yu when she hurriedly came to the herb garden to give her the pill, as if she was saying, "Sister, I will not let you down."
The system's voice, which hadn't spoken for a long time, rang in my mind.
[Host, you're amazing! With this upgraded pill from Linghu Zhuoyu, you'll have much more protection in future battles!]
Mu Jianjian stroked the pill in her hand and said calmly, "Actually... this is not my real purpose."
[Then why did the host give Linghu Zhuoyu Sacred Lake water?]
“I want to add another possibility, in other words, to add more possibilities.” Mu Jianjian recalled the Illusionary Scale Vine she picked in the cave when she first entered the secret realm. “Everything in the secret realm, every single plant is an extremely precious herb to the outside world. Don’t you think that’s terrifying?”
【Why? 】
"If our final opponent is indeed from the Upper Realm, we have no chance against them in terms of resources, let alone cultivation." Mu Jianjian's voice trailed off as she gently fiddled with pine leaves she had plucked from her spatial storage, as if peering through the leaves at something else entirely. "How are we supposed to fight them..."
The system fell silent, listening quietly to the clear voice of its host echoing around it.
“Using the water of the sacred lake to change the plants and elixirs may seem ridiculous, insignificant, and trivial to the upper realm, but I still want to give it a try.”
"Perhaps one day, when the herbs and elixirs on the mainland have been improved and upgraded, will everyone's cultivation level also rise to a higher level?"
"Saving the world is never a one-person job." Mu Jianjian smiled faintly, her face flushed and intoxicating in the sunset. She recalled that night when she stayed up late in bed, holding the pink-covered novel, and slowly turning to the last page.
The villainous demon lord Chi Wenqing destroyed the world, turning the heavens and earth into a blood-red and distorted mess, even tearing and shattering space itself. Amidst screams that resembled a living hell, Sang Wanyue and Wuluo were no match for him, and the two died hand in hand, their souls scattered. The rest of the main characters also perished one after another.
The entire continent was transformed into a sea of blood, as if the Yellow Springs had been stained crimson.
Before transmigrating into the book, she was just an intern who clocked in on time, slacking off at work and playing games with her best friend after work, surfing the internet and occasionally getting emo late at night on NetEase Cloud Music.
But after transmigrating into the book, the system and the space it provided gave her a different meaning. The people she met were real and had warmth, completely different from the few words described in the book.
That's why Mu Jianjian wanted to work harder, cultivate, grow, and study medicine, just to do her best to improve herself and change the outcome.

Xuan Shuang taught Zhan Qingfeng.
"The flowers Cai Hua gave me have bloomed again." The First Elder shifted his gaze from the flowers on the porcelain vase in front of him to the Fourth Elder beside him, and said in a deep voice.
The base of the porcelain bottle was no bigger than a fingernail, but the mouth of the bottle was dozens of times larger. Insects kept emerging from the black soil and crawling toward the white flower branch in the center, which was eerie and creepy.
"What are you looking at me for?" The Fourth Elder snorted coldly, flicking his sleeves. "How would I know what's wrong with this flower?"
"Go and check over there again. I'm still worried," the elder sighed.
The white flower that Cai Hua gave them was given along with "life force," and it was said that when the flower withered, the person would die. But as they waited day by day, the white flower did not wither as usual. Even when it was bitten by poisonous insects, it slowly sprouted new branches.
“I watched him swallow that poison with my own eyes when I was fighting with Mu Yutian. Don’t you believe me?” The Fourth Elder waved his hand. “No one can cure ‘Life and Breath’. I also went to the Chinese Medicine Hall to check on him, and he hasn’t changed at all.”
"Let's move the plan forward." The elder's voice settled, as if he had finally made up his mind.
“But if that happens, the Third Elder probably won’t just sit idly by,” the Fourth Elder said, his voice filled with confusion. “If we wait a few more days, and things settle down with Mu Yutian, he will naturally submit to us. Why take the risk…”
"I'm afraid something unexpected has happened." The elder's gaze was fixed on the white flower, vaguely recalling the day it regained its vitality and sprouted new shoots—
It was when the young lady returned.
