Chapter 619
When Little Wei Yuan regained consciousness, he found himself lying on a small island, beside him was the Jianmu seedling that had already reached thirty zhang in height. There were scorch marks left by the tribulation thunder on the tree trunk, but the newly grown branches were already as lush as a canopy, covering most of the small island.
The island was not just bare soil and rocks; a kind of soft and bright small grass was also growing, dotted with star-like flower clusters.
Wisps of vegetation vitality spilled from the Jianmu sapling and were absorbed by Little Wei Yuan's Primordial Spirit. At the same time, a bit of extremely high-rank life aura was injected; Little Wei Yuan was very familiar with this aura, as it was exactly what was emitted by the Life Fruit he had relied on to save his life back then.
Little Wei Yuan turned his head and saw that there was another small tree beside him, with two fruits hanging on it respectively; the tree had already extended a third branch, and cyan luck was entwined on the branches, with a tender bud just about to bloom.
Little Wei Yuan turned his head again and saw Behind Bao Yun kneeling beside him, looking at him with concern.
"How did I get here?" Little Wei Yuan could not remember what had just happened, and querying in the earthly paradise yielded no results, as if the immortal plants had not witnessed everything that had happened.
Behind Bao Yun said: "I was originally exercising my spirituality here, and later I saw a young lady rowing a small boat, sending you over, saying that Jianmu could heal your wounds and asking me to take good care of you."
"Young lady? What does she look like?"
There is no need for verbal description between cultivators; Behind Bao Yun immediately waved an image, inside which was a young girl dressed in light clothes and a plain skirt, with an ordinary appearance, yet making people feel inexplicably close for no reason. She came supporting a light boat, which broke through the wind and waves, moving extremely fast.
Little Wei Yuan had no impression of this young girl; any mortal in the earthly paradise would be remembered once seen by Little Wei Yuan, but he had indeed never seen this young girl. However, there were hundreds of thousands of mortals in the earthly paradise, and the vast majority were those Little Wei Yuan had not seen.
He immediately searched in the earthly paradise but found nothing. This indicates that this young girl is likely transformed from an immortal plant, but he does not know which immortal plant has such spirituality; could it be the Red Lotus Bodhi?
Little Wei Yuan did not continue to guess but examined his Primordial Spirit. At this moment, under the dual treatment of Jianmu and Behind Bao Yun's Dao Foundation Life Fruit, the wounds of Little Wei Yuan's Primordial Spirit had healed by a small half and were beginning to recover on their own. Now Little Wei Yuan looked like he had no wounds on the surface, just very listless.
Little Wei Yuan queried the things he brought back again, and this time there was a result. He brought back a small jar of gray sand and seven or eight small items dropped by the monsters.
The gray sand had been properly preserved; according to the weight, it was enough to open the light gate for seven or eight days. Calculated this way, the remains of killing about one monster could allow the light gate to be opened for half a day.
Little Wei Yuan fought to the death at the last moment and only remembered to collect things when he was about to kill his way through the monster group, so he could only grab whatever he could. However, most of the monsters before were injured but not dead, so there were no spoils.
This was the first time Little Wei Yuan had encountered items dropping when killing monsters. Those objects did not look big, and it was barely acceptable to hide them on one's body. It was just that Little Wei Yuan did not understand why monsters would hide things on their bodies; to leave a souvenir for the person who killed them?
At this time, the earthly paradise began to study the spoils Little Wei Yuan brought back, while simultaneously analyzing his combat records. About dozens of tasks were in progress simultaneously, and nearly thirty percent of the resources of the entire earthly paradise were poured into these projects.
Now most of the resources of the earthly paradise were being used to crack the system carried by the black birds, in order to improve itself. There is already a preliminary conclusion that this system can at least greatly improve the earthly paradise's ability to store information, while simultaneously making searches faster and more effective.
Seeing that everything in the earthly paradise was in good order while he was in a coma, and that the things he wanted to do had already been done by others, Little Wei Yuan felt both relieved and somewhat lost.
Just as he was letting his imagination run wild, a gentle touch suddenly came from his body; Behind Bao Yun's hand stroked him gently and asked: "Great Realm Lord Wei, what did you go do to get your body all battered and broken, even the important things were almost severed, and I had to help you reconnect them."
Little Wei Yuan was shocked; he clearly remembered that he had long since changed that cumbersome thing away when he was in the Primordial Spirit state.
Besides, the Primordial Spirit is a whole, and there is no such thing as a vital point, so where did a small half get severed?
But Little Wei Yuan still subconsciously got up and looked down at his lower body, only to see that his lower body was fine, still looking like he was wearing pants, with no extra objects exposed?
Seeing Little Wei Yuan's panicked appearance, Behind Bao Yun finally revealed a smile and said: "That's what you get for not telling me when you encounter danger!"
Little Wei Yuan's old face flushed, and he said sincerely: "That was an outer-world broken world, perhaps even an incomplete cave heaven. It was extremely dangerous inside, the monsters were particularly cunning; you can see I almost fell inside, so you know. If you had gone in, you really wouldn't have been able to come out."
"Take me to the central city to see."
"Fine, but it will have to be in a day or two; I'm a bit severely injured this time, I need to go rest first." Little Wei Yuan did not suspect anything and nodded in agreement.
"Go, I'll come see you in a while."
Little Wei Yuan nodded and then left the earthly paradise. After returning to reality, he only felt a splitting headache and was extremely sleepy, wanting nothing more than to fall to the ground and sleep.
This time the Primordial Spirit was severely injured; Little Wei Yuan endured the intense headache, hugged a spray tube, and flew directly to Sun Yu's medical clinic. Sun Yu examined Little Wei Yuan's condition, dared not be negligent, and immediately ordered two young and beautiful female disciples to carry Little Wei Yuan into the sickroom, then performed techniques to examine him carefully.
This sickroom was five zhang in radius, with a cold jade sickbed in the center, and glowing sun jade embedded in the ceiling, illuminating the entire sickroom brightly. An array was laid out in the room, gathering the life-mysterious power of Jianmu, turning it into pale cyan spiritual mist that constantly sprayed toward the sickbed from above.
Sun Yu's medical clinic was originally a place for key care, and Little Wei Yuan had tilted quite a bit of Jianmu's life-mysterious power over here; after such strengthening and treatment by Sun Yu, it could be said that as long as the physical body still had a glimmer of life, one would not die lying on this sickbed.
Little Wei Yuan had never seen this sickroom before; it must have been built bit by bit by Sun Yu with the disciples of the medical clinic during this period. With this sickroom, the medical clinic finally looked like something, worthy of the name of a medical clinic.
Otherwise, given Sun Yu's style, Little Wei Yuan felt this place should be called a Special Operations Research Institute.
After Little Wei Yuan lay down, being moistened by Jianmu's life-mysterious power, he immediately felt his whole body's vitality glowing and felt much more comfortable. Then he saw Sun Yu's Dharma Form appear above his head, and that poisonous scorpion sprayed a mouthful of poisonous mist onto Little Wei Yuan's face! Little Wei Yuan instantly felt numbness on his face, and then the numbness quickly spread to his whole body, and he was already unable to move.
"What are you doing?"
Sun Yu said: "Your Primordial Spirit is damaged, so you must have a splitting headache, so I'll give you some light poison first; its main effect is to stop the pain."
"What about the secondary effect?" Little Wei Yuan became alert.
"The secondary effect... hmm, if it were an ordinary Dao Foundation cultivator, they would probably be dead by now. But it doesn't matter for you; trace amounts of poison help with the tempering of your physical body."
Little Wei Yuan was quite speechless, but there is a specialty in the arts; Sun Yu's medical skills were still quite trustworthy. Whether saving people or killing people, the first priority is to understand the inside and outside of the human body in detail. And as long as one thoroughly understands the inner heaven and earth of the human body, medical skills won't be too bad.
Sun Yu brought a transparent jade bowl, poured in a few drops of medicinal liquid, and the medicinal liquid turned into mist as soon as it entered the bowl. Then Sun Yu covered Little Wei Yuan's face with the jade bowl and said: "You just breathe naturally and inhale the medicinal aura."
Little Wei Yuan spoke with his spiritual sense: "What is this again?"
Sun Yu said: "Inspired by Brother Wenwu, the medical means of mortals in the outer world are varied and meticulous, which is truly breathtaking. From this, I am also reflecting that internal administration and external application are not the only ways to give medicine; there are many other methods available. For example, inhaling medicinal aura is more natural, takes effect extremely quickly, and is much easier to use than traditional medicine."
Little Wei Yuan inhaled the medicinal aura in a few breaths and indeed felt much more relaxed; his Primordial Spirit was constantly nourished by the medicinal aura and was recovering rapidly.
!
Sun Yu said: "Your Primordial Spirit is too strong; an ordinary cultivator would be fine with this dose of medicine, but you need to take seventy doses. However, the dose I just gave you is also twenty times that of a normal person; you lie here for twelve hours, use the medicine two more times, and it will be about right; after that, you recover on your own. If you use medicine again, your physical body won't be able to take it."
Little Wei Yuan asked: "How many cultivators could the dose you just gave me kill?"
Sun Yu pondered for a moment and said: "Cui Yu would surely die, Henshui would be severely crippled."
"... Uncle-Master, do you have that much confidence in me?"
"..."
Damage to the Primordial Spirit is no small matter; Sun Yu can repair half of Little Wei Yuan's damage in one day, and Little Wei Yuan has to recover the rest slowly on his own. It's not because of anything else, but because the elixir for treating the Primordial Spirit is gone.
Sun Yu exhorted Little Wei Yuan to greet Xu Henshui after his wounds healed and ask if the elixirs used within Qingming could be sold more cheaply.
Little Wei Yuan wondered: "For such a small matter, can't you just go and say it yourself, Uncle-Master?"
Sun Yu shook his head: "You don't know, those scoundrels in the Zao Hua Guan cling to the profit multiplier and won't let go; that fellow Xu Henshui says he won't lower it below fifteen times no matter what. He says making money is a small matter, but losing integrity is a big one!"
Little Wei Yuan was silent, then said: "Is there a pill formula? I'll open a furnace when I have time later."
Sun Yu was slightly surprised: "You can also refine pills?"
Little Wei Yuan was somewhat embarrassed and said: "I can't say I can; I've only refined a few types to try my hand, about the level of twenty times or so."
Sun Yu was greatly surprised: "What? Isn't this higher than Xu Henshui?"
Little Wei Yuan said: "It's just that those few pill formulas are higher than Uncle-Master Xu's."
"Oh, the others aren't as good as his, which is understandable. But that's also not easy."
Little Wei Yuan said: "I don't know the other pill formulas yet."
Sun Yu: "..."
While recuperating, Behind Bao Yun entered the sickroom, holding an urgent report in her hand, and said: "The battle report from Red Sand Oasis says that the vanguard led by Xu Yi was ambushed, losing hundreds of soldiers, and has already retreated a hundred miles to wait for reinforcements. Cui Yu is leading the main force to accelerate forward."
Little Wei Yuan was stunned; the vanguard sent to Red Sand Oasis was actually defeated? Although it was only a small defeat according to the battle report, it was also quite unbelievable.
