Lu Xuan took the box and opened it. A blood-red elixir the size of a longan appeared in front of him. He gently picked up the elixir and sniffed it. He had some attainments in the Dao of Alchemy. From the smell, it did not smell like poison. Just as Ling Jin had said, it smelled like a great tonic.
Without any hesitation, Lu Xuan swallowed the elixir in front of Ling Jin. However, because he had swallowed it too quickly, he could not help but cough again. His mouth became even drier.
When Lu Xuan completely swallowed the elixir, Ling Jin nodded her head in satisfaction. With this elixir, even if Lu Xuan tried to play any tricks, she would not be afraid. Unless Lu Xuan really did not want to live anymore.
Seeing that Lu Xuan was coughing so badly, Ling Rou quickly took out a bottle of water from her storage ring and handed it to him. As Ling Jin's maidservant, it was only natural that her storage ring was always stocked with all sorts of items needed for emergencies. Water aside, she even had all sorts of food.
After drinking a mouthful of water, Lu Xuan immediately felt much better. He let out a long sigh and said, "Then can we talk about returning to the Heavenly Sword Continent now? It won't be long before Xuan Jianan's men discover our tracks. At that time, there will be no way out. "
Ling Jin nodded. She also knew that this matter could not be delayed. Compared to staying on the Demon Sealed Continent, it was safer to return to the Heaven Region with Lu Xuan.
"Back then, when our Ling Clan's ancestor led a group of demons to the Demon Sealed Continent, in order to prevent the Ling Clan from declining and being taken over by others, we set up a backup plan. The method of leaving is only known to the leaders of the Ling Clan."
Lu Xuan nodded and said, "If I'm not wrong, your backup plan should be the transportation array that I used to come here, right?"
Ling Jin looked at Lu Xuan approvingly and said, "Indeed, looks like you're not stupid after all."
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "In fact, I had some doubts from the beginning. It's reasonable to say that your Demon Race fled to the Demon Sealed Continent in order to avoid being hunted down by the Human Race's powerhouses, so why would you leave behind a transmission array that leads here? But if you continue to stay, then there must be a reason. But what puzzles me is that it seems to be a one-way Teleportation Formation. There is no corresponding Teleportation Formation on your side, so how are we going to leave? "
Ling Jin sneered, "Who said there isn't a teleportation array? It's just that this teleportation array isn't fixed."
After saying that, Ling Jin waved her hand and took out an exquisite crystal ball that emitted a pale blue light.
"The teleportation array is inside this crystal ball?" Lu Xuan asked curiously as he looked at the crystal ball, which was glowing continuously.
Ling Jin didn't answer. Instead, she raised her hand and lightly brushed the surface of the crystal ball. It was unknown where she moved, but a faint blue light suddenly shot out and sprinkled on the ground.
Lu Xuan looked at this scene in amazement. He saw that the faint blue light was projecting a Teleportation Formation! He immediately understood and secretly praised the exquisite structure of the Demon Race. He didn't expect them to be able to hide the Teleportation Formation in a crystal ball and release it when they needed to use it. In this way, apart from the person who obtained the crystal ball and knew the method to open it, no one else could use it.
"This crystal ball is called the Demonic Crystal. It is an important treasure of my Ling Clan. I'm not afraid to tell you that our Demon Race was able to absorb all the Vital Origin Energy of the Heavenly Sword Continent and move it to the Demon Sealed Continent because of it," Ling Jin said rather proudly. Ling Jin said proudly. Being able to absorb all the Vital Essence of a continent was indeed something she could be proud of.
"So you're saying that you can also absorb the Vital Origin Energy of the Demon Sealed Continent and move it back to the Heavenly Sword Continent?" Lu Xuan asked hurriedly.
Ling Jin looked at him warily and said, "What are you trying to do? You want the Heavenly Sword Continent to recover its Vital Origin Energy? Humph, what benefit does this benefit the Human Race to me? Although I do hate Xuan Jianan, I won't vent my anger on the entire Demon Race of the Demon Sealed Continent. Without the Vital Origin Energy, they can do nothing but wait for death. "
Lu Xuan smiled embarrassedly. That was indeed what he was thinking. Without the Vital Origin Energy, the Body Tempering Faction of the Sky Sword Continent would be completely crippled. However, if the Vital Origin Energy could be recovered, it wouldn't be long before the human race's physique would greatly improve, and the Body Tempering Faction would gradually rise again.
Ling Jin then said, "Actually, even if you want to do that, there's nothing you can do. The energy of the Magic Crystal Ball has already been used up the last time it absorbed the Vital Origin Energy. Over the years, it hasn't been replenished enough, so it can't do such a big thing. With its current energy, I'm afraid it can only support one person to activate the teleportation array and leave this place. "
"One person?" Lu Xuan asked in shock. His gaze swept across Ling Jin and Ling Rou. There were three of them here.
Ling Rou was also shocked. She knew nothing about the Magic Crystal Ball. She had never thought that there would be such a restriction. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but hesitated. In the end, she bit her lip and said, "Commander, take Envoy Lu and leave. The Magic Crystal Ball might be able to support two people. I … I'll continue to stay here. In any case, I can't be of any help to you …"
As she spoke, Ling Rou pinched the hem of her clothes. She was on the verge of tears. Who didn't want to live? But if they had to abandon one of the three, it would be her.
To his surprise, Ling Jin smiled. She turned her head and stroked Ling Rou's hair. "What are you talking about? Why would I abandon you? Even if it's only enough energy for one person to leave, it's enough. But, we'll have to rely on Envoy Lu. "
"Rely on me? Oh … I understand. "Lu Xuan suddenly understood. He knew what Ling Jin was planning.
Ling Jin put away the Magic Crystal Ball. She took two steps forward and said slowly, "If I'm not mistaken, the thing you used to hide me and Ling Rou should be a rare spatial artifact that can accommodate a person. As the young master of one of the top sects in the Sky Sword Continent, how could you not have a few good treasures? "
Lu Xuan smiled. As expected, Ling Jin had her eyes on the Taiyi Cauldron. However, such an item was not something that the Jiuehua Alliance was capable of producing. Treasures like the Taiyi Cauldron were rare even in the Heavenly Region. But she was right. With the Taiyi Cauldron, he could put Ling Jin and Ling Rou inside, then use the Magic Crystal Ball to leave.
"It looks like you've planned this all along. That's why you took out the Magic Crystal Ball."
"Of course. If I didn't see your spatial artifact, I wouldn't be telling you this. If I'm going to leave, I'm going to leave alone."
"Don't worry. I can take you two with me. You don't have to worry about that." Lu Xuan assured Ling Jin.
Hearing this, Ling Rou revealed a pleasantly surprised smile. The feeling of going from hell to heaven was simply too good.
Now that everything was ready, all that was left was the final push. Lu Xuan turned his head to look outside. There were still no signs of any pursuers. It looked like the hiding place he'd chosen was relatively hidden.
Then, Lu Xuan turned back to Ling Jin and said, "The transportation matrix left behind by your Ling Clan's ancestors is filled with an endless amount of murderous energy. Moreover, the tearing force of space to pass through the transportation matrix is extremely strong. In my current state, it's not suitable for me to leave immediately. I need some time to recover."
"No problem. I'll keep an eye on the surroundings. We'll wait for Xuan Jianan's men to find us before we leave." This time, Ling Jin didn't argue with Lu Xuan. After all, the person who passed through the transportation matrix was Lu Xuan. If something happened to Lu Xuan, both of them would be thrown into the spatial turbulence. With her strength, she wouldn't be able to last more than a breath's time in the spatial turbulence before being torn to pieces.
Lu Xuan didn't waste any time. He immediately sat down cross-legged and calmly recovered his strength. He didn't expect to recover a lot of strength. He just needed to be able to pass through the transportation matrix. As for the murderous energy in the Heaven Fiend Valley, Ling Jin probably had a way to deal with it. After all, it was left behind by the Ling Clan.
After sitting down for less than ten breaths, Lu Xuan opened his eyes again. He looked at Ling Jin, who was leaning against the entrance of the valley, and said, "This recovery is too slow. Didn't you just give me some great tonic? Come over and help me stimulate the effects of the medicine. With the help of the spirit medicine, I'm sure I'll be able to recover my strength faster. "
"You're suspecting that the medicine I gave you is fake, right? Since that's the case, I'll let you be at ease. " Ling Jin snorted softly and walked over. Ever since she knew that Lu Xuan had been lying to her, she always found Lu Xuan to be an eyesore.
Lu Xuan couldn't be bothered to refute her. Right now, recovering his strength was the most important thing. She could think whatever she wanted. When he returned to the Heavenly Sword Continent, he would find an opportunity to raise his strength to the Extraordinary Realm. Then, he would send Ling Jin back to the Heaven Region. That way, he would have fulfilled his promise and wouldn't see her again. Judging from the situation in the Heaven Region, if they were to meet again, they would be enemies. Since that was the case, it was better not to see her.
Ling Jin came behind Lu Xuan and sat down cross-legged. She gently placed her jade-like hands on Lu Xuan's back. Immediately, Lu Xuan felt a familiar surge of the Extreme Yin and Extreme Yang energies surging into his body at the same time. With the arrival of this surge of energy, the power of the elixir from before was finally activated.
Although the elixir would continue to emit energy even without Ling Jin's help, this had undoubtedly sped up the effects of the elixir. Lu Xuan gradually felt a warm current flowing into his dantian. Immediately, he stopped being distracted and began to circulate the Taiyi Origin Technique with all his might. He greedily absorbed the energy, filling up the emptiness in his body.
The Taiyi Origin Technique carried the medicinal effects of the elixir as it circulated through his meridians, repairing Lu Xuan's damaged body and restoring his strength. After approximately two hours, Ling Jin let out a long sigh and opened her eyes. She slowly retracted her hand. The medicinal effects she had released were already enough for Lu Xuan to use. Any more and she was worried that Lu Xuan's body wouldn't be able to take it.
Meanwhile, Lu Xuan was already completely immersed in cultivation. He didn't notice what Ling Jin was doing at all. The sky turned dark and then bright. He cultivated for an entire day.
He exhaled and slowly stopped. The pain in his chest, which had been severely injured by Ada, had been greatly alleviated. While there were still some internal injuries, it was much better than before, when he would have been in pain just by breathing.
