Starting from Scavengers to Cultivate Immortals

Chapter 56 Waiting for Results
On the east side of Chaoyang Peak, there is a quaint brick and stone courtyard, which looks quite ancient, with bluestone paving, blue bricks and black tiles, weeds growing in the stone crevices, and moss growing on the steps and roof. Nestled among green trees and emerald bamboos, everything looks as if time has stood still.

In a room on the south side of the small courtyard, there are beds and futons, a stove and coffee table, a straw mat hanging on the window lattice, and a few pieces of furniture, which look extremely simple.

The stove was burning, and the clay pots on it were gurgling, and the room was filled with a strong medicinal fragrance.

On the bed, a young cultivator with a face like gold paper was lying on his back, breathing sometimes and not, the breath was so weak that it was almost inaudible.

A young woman in a green skirt was sitting on the edge of the bed, carefully wiping the remaining blood on the boy's cheek with a handkerchief, and carefully protecting a black bead placed between his eyebrows with one hand.

This battle is extremely dangerous.

And the speed was so fast that people didn't understand it at all and it ended.

Although Zhao Xuan got started earlier than Xu Chen and her cultivation level was higher than Xu Chen's, Xu Chen's reaction was still countless times faster than her in many critical situations, and once she did it, she never dragged her feet. Staying behind, even disregarding his own life or death.

Of course, everyone understood Xu Chen's thoughts. In that case, there was no other way but to go all out.

But this time, the enemy is a real strong man in the mid-stage of the Alchemy Realm who has been famous for decades, and his strength is completely different from that of the Jade Dragon real person he met in the capital.

And right now, Xu Chen almost exchanged his own life for a few days in Taiyuanmen.

No one blamed Xu Chen, Lu Yuan, and Zhao Xuan.

This kind of disaster cannot be avoided, and the fault is not in Taiyuanmen.

It's just that the matter has reached this point, how to resolve it is the key.

The key to resolving it is that Dan Chenzi successfully transformed his spirit within these five days.

But that hope is extremely slim.

Therefore, no one is sure whether the Taiyuanmen will be dead or alive five days later.

Outside the door, a ray of light fell into the small courtyard, Seventh Senior Sister Qu Mei hurried in, holding a little white fox in her arms.

"Woo~~"

Putting the little fox on the bed, he suddenly felt that something was wrong with his master. He arched Xu Chen's chest a few times, then climbed to the top of his head, grabbed the black bead in one mouthful and lay down, like a furry hat covering his forehead.

"This little beast is really weird!" Qu Mei couldn't help muttering.

Zhao Xuan suppressed her sadness and said softly: "Junior brother was injured along the way, and Xiao Bai helped him recover in this way. This is the first time he discovered the effect of the soul orb."

Qumei's consciousness swept over Xu Chen's body, and she said silently for a moment: "Young brother is seriously injured this time, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to take care of him."

Zhao Xuan choked with sobs and said, "These two soul orbs have been used too many times, and they are almost out of soul power. I don't know if the third elder and ninth brother can bring back new soul orbs."

Qu Mei stroked Zhao Xuan's hair and said, "Don't worry too much. The third elder not only possesses profound knowledge, but also possesses a lot of magic weapons. Even if the consciousness cannot be used inside, the lighting of the magic weapons will definitely not cause too many problems. Take care of yourself." Look at the little junior brother, I will take care of the master!"

"Okay, Seventh Senior Sister, go slowly!" Zhao Xuan nodded, watched Qu Mei leave the room, then turned around and sat down on the side of the bed, and continued to wipe the blood stains and dust on Xu Chen's face and hands.

Two days passed in a flash.

Xu Chen still didn't wake up, and his breathing seemed to be a little bit more serious.

Xuanhe Daoist has already woken up, but his injuries are serious. After hearing what happened, and seeing Xu Chen personally with the support of several disciples, his expression became bitter and helpless.

Although the master and apprentice didn't spend much time together, their relationship was not indifferent. It's just that they were both cultivators who were not used to that kind of common etiquette and unnecessary emotional exchanges.

The master leads the door, and the cultivation depends on oneself.

Xiuxianwen has always been like this.

Therefore, there is a friendship between gentlemen among people who cultivate the Tao, which seems shallow and watery, but in fact it embodies a pure and true relationship without conflict of interest everywhere, so the feelings are more sincere, but everyone is not used to saying it.

"Second Elder, we are the ones who have troubled you!" Zhao Xuan cried with tears.

Xuan He touched the top of Zhao Xuan's head with his hand, and shook his head kindly: "This has nothing to do with you, in fact, it's just the right number of days. This blood god grass is too heaven-defying, too involved, too involved. Once it enters the game, There must be a disaster of blood and light, it is not you who can break the situation, if it can end like this, and help the Great Elder to advance smoothly, then the form will be reversed, and this disaster will be resolved invisible."

After hearing this, everyone was silent.

Because everyone knows, in fact, Xuan and Zhenren still have half a word to say, that is, if the Elder Aging Spirit fails, but Longmenshan comes to the door first, then this bloody disaster will continue.

Xuanhe Zhenren stood up, looked at the warm and bright sunshine outside the door with his hands behind his back, and said with a long sigh: "The great way of heaven and earth is connected by cause and effect. If there is gain, there will be loss. If there is success, there will be failure. It is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen. All living beings are nothing but ants, they can only seek immediate dangers, but they cannot see through the secrets of the future, this is something we can control, let's just wait for the result!"

A group of disciples bowed their hands silently, and then sent Xuan and Zhenren out of the small courtyard.

At this point, the mood of the entire Taiyuanmen became more and more depressed, but they had no power to resist, so they could only wait anxiously.

Another day passed in a blink of an eye.

Just when the disciples of the Taiyuan Sect were looking forward to seeing through it, at dusk, a ray of light galloped from the northeast, and landed in front of the Taiyuan Hall in a blink of an eye.

All the disciples jumped up into the air to meet him in joy.

The Third Elder and Ninth Senior Brother came down from the flying sword. Both of them looked ragged. There were even several wounds on the Third Elder's body. The flesh and blood turned black, and if you looked closely with your spiritual sense, you could see curls in the wounds. The black air continued to escape.

"Take these soul beads to heal Xu Chen's wounds!" The third elder took out a total of eight black soul beads from the storage bag and handed them to a disciple, then slumped on the ground after shaking his body a few times.

"Third Elder!" A group of disciples hurried forward to help.

The third elder waved his hand and said: "There is nothing wrong with the poor, saving people is the most important thing, let's all disperse, the old man can meditate and rest for a while!"

After finishing speaking, the third elder took a elixir, sat down cross-legged in front of Taiyuan Hall, closed his eyes and began to heal his injuries.

Soon a few soul beads were delivered to Xu Chen's small courtyard, and Zhao Xuan quickly picked out the largest one and put it on Xu Chen's forehead, and pressed it gently with her vitality.

Everyone let out a sigh of relief.

Although I don't know how the effect will be, there is new hope after all.

The fifth senior brother compared the old soul orb with the new one, carefully observed it with his spiritual sense for a moment and happily said: "This new soul orb is really strong in soul power, just touching it with the spiritual sense will give you the illusion of freezing the soul."

Zhao Xuan nodded and said: "That's true. The first time I got this soul orb, Senior Brother Jiu and I didn't know each other, so I gave it to Xiao Bai to play with as an ordinary treasure. I didn't expect it to be such a magical thing. According to what Lin Qiuya said, this soul orb has great benefits for cultivating the soul, and it is very rare."

The third senior brother said: "Although this thing is good, it is not easy to get it. I saw that the third elder went there for three days, but he only brought back eight pills, and the injury was not serious. If you think about it, there must be a lot of danger in the crack of Heifengling. It's better not to take risks."

"Hey, look quickly, the little junior brother moved!"

While everyone was exchanging soul beads in low voices, someone suddenly pointed at Xu Chen who was lying on the couch and exclaimed, everyone watched one after another, several divine senses swept across the bed, and then they all showed joy .

Sure enough, Xu Chen had a slight movement, his fingers and face seemed to be twitching slightly, and his breathing was obviously much faster, and he could already clearly see the rise and fall of his chest.

"Look, the color of the soul orb fades so quickly!"

Someone observed carefully, and everyone looked intently at the soul bead placed on Xu Chen's forehead. Sure enough, a pitch-black soul bead the size of a thumb was fading at a speed almost visible to the naked eye. Turned into dark gray.

After more than ten breaths of time, the gray-black soul orb turned completely gray, and then shattered with a slight crack.

"Quick, change one!"

Amidst the exclamation, Zhao Xuan hurriedly replaced it with a new soul orb.

Not long after this soul orb was placed on it, it began to fade rapidly again, and within a few dozen breaths of time, it shattered again.

"Hurry up, change again, the younger brother seems to be waking up soon!"

Everyone was surprised and delighted, Zhao Xuan hurriedly replaced with another soul orb.

In this way, five soul beads were changed in one breath, and they all began to fade rapidly shortly after they were put on, and finally cracked, but with the continuous replacement of soul beads, Xu Chen's breath became more and more calm, and his body was completely untouched from the very beginning. The unconscious convulsions and convulsions finally calmed down slowly, and a tinge of blood gradually appeared on his face.

When changing to the sixth one, Xu Chen's body trembled suddenly, then slowly opened his eyes, and saw a circle of familiar faces of senior brothers and sisters.

"Little brother is awake!"

There was an instant cheer in the room.

Xu Chen was stunned, but slowly recalled the last attack on Qing Yunzi, and quickly struggled to sit up and asked, "Senior brother and sister, how is the situation, did Qing Yunzi escape?"

"Junior brother, don't worry, Qing Yunzi has been caught by the third elder, and now he is restraining senior brother Dantian to watch!"

"The spirit crane was caught too, and it didn't escape."

"Second Elder is fine, he is recovering very well!"

A group of senior brothers and sisters reported the situation in a hurry, Zhao Xuan nervously shook Xu Chen's hand and asked, "How do you feel, junior?"

Xu Chen quickly looked inside at the Sea of ​​Consciousness and the Dantian of Meridians, and then said with a strange expression, "I feel good, and it seems that there is no serious problem."

Everyone relaxed after hearing this, and someone hurriedly told the two elders and several senior brothers the good news, and soon the mood in the whole mountain gate became much more lively.
