Three days later, Xiao Chen, who was lying on the ground, finally woke up.
"Cough!
Cough! "Xiao Chen opened his eyes weakly and coughed violently a few times. Then, he struggled to sit up from the ground.
Xiao Chen checked his body with his consciousness. He could not help but reveal a bitter smile on his pale face.
Although most of the Spiritual Energy from that day had already leaked out from the twenty-four acupoints, the vast amount of Spiritual Energy that remained in his body still caused significant damage.
Xiao Chen's heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, large and small intestines, stomach, and gallbladder — all his internal organs were severely injured. Every slight movement caused intense pain.
Fortunately, Xiao Chen's meridians did not suffer much damage. His meridians had been specially tempered by the Dragon and Tiger Body Tempering Art and the Firmament Body Tempering Art.
His meridians were already as tough as Frost Iron and as hard as a mountain rock. At the same time, they were as soft as autumn water. His meridians were already hard and soft at the same time. It was very difficult for him to receive true damage.
However, the thing that dismayed Xiao Chen the most was that the Essence in his body was completely drained. It was completely drained, with nothing left. Even if he wanted to use his Essence to alleviate the pain, he could not do so.
No matter how intense a battle was, cultivators would always leave some Essence for themselves. This was because only with Essence could they complete a cycle of cultivation and quickly replenish their Essence.
If one's Essence was completely drained, it would be very difficult to recover. No matter how powerful the Medicinal Pill was, it would be useless. One could only wait for the dantian to naturally produce a strand of Essence. Only then would there be an effect.
This time, I really ruined myself. Xiao Chen sighed to himself. In the end, cultivation could not be done with brute force.
Xiao Chen looked at Leng Yue. She had a calm expression as she looked at the sky. It seemed like she did not notice the awakened Xiao Chen.
"Speaking of which, is the sky very nice? When I woke up, I did not even want to look at it. "
Leng Yue withdrew her gaze and smiled sweetly. "How can that be? I did not notice."
Then, she ran over and helped Xiao Chen up. Xiao Chen really could not stand up. Leng Yue could clearly feel the pain on Xiao Chen's face when she helped him up.
"You've suffered such heavy injuries. I'm afraid this trial is about to end."
Xiao Chen smiled faintly when he heard this. He let go of Leng Yue's hand and said, "End? You're looking down on me too much. This bit of internal injury is still within the range of what I can consume. Don't even think about it. "
Leng Yue muttered to herself, I am showing concern out of goodwill, but this fellow still does not understand.
Half a day later, Xiao Chen regained his basic ability to move. Leng Yue finally understood what Xiao Chen meant when he said he could afford it.
First, Xiao Chen spent three hundred thousand Medial Grade Spirit Stones to buy a bottle of Rank 9 Healing Medicine from the Divine Dragon Warship's medicinal store.
The Dragon Fragrance Clear Cloud Pill specialized in treating internal injuries. It had an excellent effect on Xiao Chen's injuries.
That medicinal store was opened by a merchant association under the Divine Dragon Palace. There would definitely be cultivators injured during the trial. Hence, business was booming. They also had all sorts of herbs.
After buying the Healing Medicine, it was still not enough. Xiao Chen spent another one hundred thousand Medial Grade Spirit Stones to buy a Blood Circulation Mushroom that replenished blood essence. This Blood Circulation Mushroom was two thousand years old.
That day, Xiao Chen vomited a few mouthfuls of blood. Furthermore, it was not the usual blood clots from internal injuries. Instead, it was the blood essence of the human body.
When one's blood essence flourished, one's Qi and blood would flourish. One would feel refreshed and full of energy, doing anything with vigor. When one's blood essence was insufficient, one's Qi and blood would weaken. One's complexion would turn yellow, and one would become dispirited. One would be out of breath with just a little intense exercise.
Hence, Xiao Chen had to replenish his blood essence. Furthermore, it had to be a great supplement. He had to replenish it in the shortest time possible. Hence, he had to be willing to spend Spirit Stones.
Xiao Chen bought a Blood Circulation Mushroom and a few other similar Spirit Herbs that were two thousand years old. Three hundred thousand Medial Grade Spirit Stones were gone, just like that.
Xiao Chen felt that it was still insufficient. So, he bought some thousand-year-old sea cucumbers. Sea cucumbers were a Spirit Herb unique to the Boundless Sea. They were very useful for recovering from internal injuries. When used together with the Dragon Fragrance Azure Cloud Pill, the effects would be even better.
When Xiao Chen walked out of the shop, the boss of the shop sent him off. The smile on his face was like a flower; he was clearly very excited.
It was impossible not to be excited. On this trip, Xiao Chen had spent a total of one million Medial Grade Spirit Stones. That was equivalent to the boss's monthly sales.
Originally, with Xiao Chen's physique and some low-grade Spirit Herbs, he would be able to recover from his severe injuries in at most a month, even though he was severely injured.
However, what Xiao Chen lacked now was time. He had thirty days in a month. How could he afford to waste so much time? Furthermore, he had a feeling that something big would happen in a few days.
Hence, Xiao Chen had to recover within three days. He could only spend Spirit Stones to buy time. No matter how big the price was, he would not reject it.
Leng Yue, who was beside Xiao Chen, wore a pink dress. She also had a black and white robe draped over her back, covering her tail. She also wore a veil that covered her face.
This way, no one would know that she was an Eros Demon. This was a method that Leng Yue had thought of in the past few days. This way, she would not have to remain in the Spirit Blood Jade.
After returning to the courtyard that Xiao Chen rented, Leng Yue clicked her tongue and said, "Young Master Xiao, I could not tell that you were actually so rich. No wonder you dared to speak so boldly, not bothering with such a small injury. However, I do not know how many more times you can do this. Spirit Gathering Pearls are not that easy to absorb. "
Xiao Chen's expression changed slightly. He looked at Leng Yue and said, "You seem to be implying something."
Leng Yue smiled and nodded. "That's right. I know how to let you absorb Spirit Gathering Pearls normally. However, you have to agree to a few conditions of mine."
Xiao Chen shook his head slightly and did not say anything. Then, he headed for his room.
Xiao Chen did not intend to touch the Spirit Gathering Pearl for now. It was as the white-haired old man said. That thing could only be used when breaking through to the Martial King realm.
Xiao Chen had oversimplified the problem earlier. It was not a problem of whether the dantian could contain the Spiritual Energy. Instead, it was whether the dantian could withstand the force of the river that seemed to fall from the nine heavens.
Only when one reached a bottleneck would the dantian require a large amount of Vital Qi to break through the bottleneck. At that time, the dantian's endurance would be very strong.
No matter how much strength a cultivator used, they would not be able to break through. This was the meaning of the so-called bottleneck.
Only at such a time could one withstand the impact of the spiritual liquid from the Spirit Gathering Pearls. The stronger the impact, the better.
However, even at such a time, the danger was not small. Once he failed, he would most likely die. Xiao Chen guessed that not many people would dare to use the Spirit Gathering Pill. This was because the price of failure was too high.
Xiao Chen did not believe that Leng Yue would have a way to use such a dangerous thing. Furthermore, Demons were very cunning. How could he completely trust her words? He did not want to experience such a situation again.
When Leng Yue saw Xiao Chen leave without even turning his head back, she thought that Xiao Chen felt that she had raised too many conditions. She quickly said, "I don't need a few conditions; just three conditions will do."
"Two … two is fine as well."
"Don't go. One … one should be fine, right? I'll tell you how to use the Spirit Gathering Pearl. You have to promise me one condition."
Leng Yue chased after Xiao Chen. She said this somewhat angrily. Her face was red under the veil.
Xiao Chen turned his head back and looked at Leng Yue suspiciously. He said, "Do you really know the correct way to use the Spirit Gathering Pearl?"
Seeing that Xiao Chen was looking down on her, Leng Yue was unconvinced. She said, "Naturally, I know. I also know how to deal with the Corpse Demonic Fish and Witch Fiends at the bottom of the sea. I was about to tell you about it, but you did not let me out.
"If you had asked me in advance, you would not have ended up in such a miserable state," Leng Yue muttered to herself. I even helped you chase away a big problem.
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Good, I believe you. State your conditions first."
Conditions … conditions … what conditions should I state? Leng Yue felt somewhat anxious. The conditions cannot be too simple. Otherwise, he will know that I am helping him on purpose.
It cannot be too difficult. If I cannot do it, he will definitely reject me.
Damn it! Why is this fellow so straightforward? It is so difficult for me to think of a condition.
Xiao Chen looked at Leng Yue strangely. She lowered her head and clenched her fists tightly. He did not know what she was thinking.
After a while, Leng Yue raised her head and asked depressedly, "I have not thought of it yet. What should I do?"
Xiao Chen was slightly stunned. However, he did not pay too much attention to it. He only thought that the other party was trying to maximize her benefits. "There is no rush. Three days is enough for you to think about it. By then, my injuries should have more or less recovered."
When Xiao Chen returned to his room, he placed the Peak Grade Spirit Herbs that he had bought at the medicinal hall on the table.
Then, he divided them into two categories. One was to replenish essence blood, and the other was to heal internal injuries. Internal injuries and replenishing essence blood could not be done at the same time. There was a sequence. He had to heal his internal injuries first before replenishing essence blood.
Otherwise, if he forcefully replenished essence blood with his severely injured body, his weakened internal organs would not be able to endure the vigorous Qi and blood. His injuries would worsen.
When Xiao Chen saw the table full of Spirit Herbs, he felt a pang in his heart. One million Medial Grade Spirit Stones was not easy to come by.
Right now, Xiao Chen only had about 1.7 million Medial Grade Spirit Stones in his Universe Ring. Of the 700,000 Medial Grade Spirit Stones he needed for his cultivation, he only had one million left.
After taking a deep breath, Xiao Chen picked up the Dragon Fragrance Azure Cloud Pill on the table. He opened the bottle cap, and a dragon-shaped medicinal fragrance immediately wafted out.
Xiao Chen took a gentle sniff and the dragon-shaped fragrance split into two, entering his body and circulating around his chest.
Then, it circulated in his chest and turned into a liquid that dripped onto his liver and spleen. It was like sweet nectar, instantly alleviating much of Xiao Chen's pain.
"A Rank 9 Medicinal Pill truly lives up to its name. Just a strand of medicinal fragrance has such an effect. It is indeed worthy of the title of Holy Medicine."
Xiao Chen revealed a joyful smile. Originally, he had many doubts about these Medicinal Pills. He was worried that he would not be able to recover completely within three days. Now, it looked like there would not be any problems.
Xiao Chen no longer hesitated. He took out the Medicinal Pill and swallowed it together with the thousand-year-old Sea Cucumber. Immediately, Xiao Chen felt a strong sense of drowsiness and immediately fell asleep.
During the night, the Medicinal Pill completely permeated Xiao Chen's internal organs. As he fell into a deep sleep, the Medicinal Pill anxiously healed his internal injuries.
The next day, Xiao Chen opened his eyes and stretched his legs. Then, he was shocked to discover that his internal injuries were already mostly healed.
"One million Medial Grade Spirit Stones, it was worth it!" Xiao Chen felt very carefree. All the depression from the pain was swept away.
