If it had been any other 6-star or even Seven Star physician, they would have been helpless in such a situation. However, Zhang Xuan was different.
Possessing the abilities of a soul oracle, if push came to shove, he could extract the other party's soul and nourish it to strengthen it before placing it back into the body... This way, he might be able to resolve the problem.
However, to a body that was already very weak to begin with, it was very easy for it to not be able to withstand it and completely turn into a corpse.
"Medicinal herb? What kind of medicinal herb do you need? "
Wei Changfeng hurriedly turned to look at Zhang Xuan with determination in his eyes. "As long as I have a name, I'll find it no matter the price!"
"I'm not too sure about the exact name, but it has to be a Saint herb that can nurture souls. Furthermore, it has to be alive... Also, I'll need a Grand Intermittence Pill!"
Zhang Xuan.
"Saint-tier medicinal herb? Living... Grand Intermittence Pill? T-grade-7 pill? "Wei Changfeng's face paled.
If it had been anything else, given his strength as a Saint realm expert, he should have been able to find it with some effort. However... these two items were extremely difficult to find!
It wasn't that he was lacking in strength or connections, but... it was highly likely that there wasn't any in the entire Hongyuan City.
If it had been any other time, he could have gone to a higher tier empire to look for it. However... given Wei Ruyan's situation, it was clear that he didn't have enough time!
"Only a living Saint-tier medicinal herb will be able to nourish her soul! As for the Grand Intermittence Pill, you should have heard of it. Even if one's arm is severed or severely injured, as long as the core isn't damaged, consuming this pill will allow one to recover easily! It's extremely beneficial to one's physical body. "
Zhang Xuan explained.
The Grand Intermittence Pill was a grade-7 pill. If an ordinary person were to consume it, they would be able to stimulate the vitality in their body, allowing them to regrow a severed arm.
Given that Wei Ruyan's vitality had been severed, only a grade-7 pill would be able to awaken her.
If it was any weaker, it would be completely ineffective.
"I know... However, it's possible to find Saint-tier medicinal herbs, but where can I find a grade-7 pill?" Wei Changfeng clenched his fists tightly.
Even though Saint-tier medicinal herbs were rare, there were still people in Hongyuan City who cultivated them. As long as he spent some effort, he should be able to obtain them.
However... a grade-7 pill was practically impossible.
"En!" Zhang Xuan also frowned.
Even the best apothecary in Hongyuan City was only at 6-star pinnacle. It was impossible for him to forge a grade-7 pill, not to mention that the Grand Intermittence Pill was one of the top grade-7 pills.
"How about this? I'll try to see if there are other ways to strengthen my body's vitality!"
Zhang Xuan shook his head. There was nothing he could do about it, so he turned his gaze back to Wei Ruyan.
He wanted to test out the Heaven's Path zhenqi!
The Heaven's Path zhenqi was able to heal one's injuries swiftly, and the higher one's cultivation was, the more effective it would be. Even though he had never tried to reattach a severed arm before, after countless experiments, he was well aware of its effects on cultivators.
If he could replace the Grand Intermittence Pill, he wouldn't have to spend so much effort to find this Level 7 pill.
Placing his finger on the other party's wrist, he infused his Heaven's Path zhenqi into the other party's body.
"All of them are blocked?"
Zhang Xuan thought that his zhenqi would be able to swiftly travel through his entire body and stimulate his vitality, but who could have known that it would come to a halt after just a short distance?
All the meridians in the girl's body were like sealed passageways, unable to flow.
Zhang Xuan retracted his finger.
"Most likely, she was attacked when she was still a fetus, and her meridians sealed themselves in order to protect herself. In other words, as long as she doesn't wake up and take the initiative to control her meridians, she won't be able to open them.
It didn't take long for Zhang Xuan to figure out what was going on.
"Try this!"
Even though his zhenqi was unable to enter the meridians, Zhang Xuan wasn't discouraged. Flicking his wrist, he took out a box of silver needles.
Hu!
With a slight flick of his wrist, the silver needles flew out and landed on the acupoints on the young lady's body. His Heaven's Path zhenqi immediately flowed through the acupoints and into her body.
"Un!"
As the zhenqi flowed into the young lady's body, her pale face immediately turned rosy, and a light hum escaped from her lips.
"It's working …"
Wei Changfeng's body trembled slightly.
Seeing that it was working, Zhang Xuan's spirit was invigorated. He continued infusing his zhenqi into the other party's body through the silver needles.
"Something's not right!"
As his zhenqi flowed into the other party's body to nourish her, Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up. Just as he was about to retract his silver needles, the young lady's face suddenly paled, and her motionless body suddenly convulsed violently.
"This is bad …"
Narrowing his eyes, Zhang Xuan hurriedly gathered his zhenqi into his palm and retracted all of his silver needles.
However, it was already too late. As if poisoned, the young lady began to foam at the corner of her mouth, and her body began to tremble.
"D-dead?"
Wei Changfeng's body stiffened. He hurriedly took a look at the young master, and his eyes immediately turned crimson.
He had thought that the young master would be able to be saved, but who could have thought that … he would die just like that!
The hope that he had harbored in his heart vanished in an instant, and he was on the verge of going insane.
"This …"
He wasn't the only one. Zhang Xuan was also on the verge of going insane.
His Heaven's Path zhenqi was capable of treating injuries, and there had never been a problem with it. Why would something happen all of a sudden?
"It must have something to do with her Innate Poison Body …"
Zhang Xuan's complexion turned awful.
The other party possessed the Innate Poison Body, and his Heaven's Path zhenqi was capable of neutralizing most poisons.
Given Wei Ruyan's weak constitution, there was no way she could have withstood the backlash, and she died on the spot.
"If she really dies, even if Wei Changfeng doesn't dare to do anything to her due to the restriction on her soul, he would surely bear a grudge against me … Furthermore, I promised her that I would be able to cure her, but for such a situation to occur … I've really ruined my reputation!"
Zhang Xuan's mind raced.
What in the world was this?
The other party was still alive, and there was even a chance that she could be revived. Yet, she ended up dying on the spot.
It was already a blessing that she didn't put her life on the line right away.
"I have to save her!"
Knowing that Wei Changfeng would surely suffer a mental breakdown if the young lady were to die, and his reputation would be in tatters, Zhang Xuan placed his finger on the young lady's forehead once more, and a new book appeared in the Library of Heaven's Path.
In the blink of an eye, he finished reading the entire book.
"Xiaofeng, you should leave first!"
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Xuan instructed.
"Leave?" Wei Changfeng's complexion turned awful.
"That's right. She isn't dead, but she has fallen into a temporary coma due to the immense force exerted on her. I'll have to use my secret art to save her, so you should leave first …" Zhang Xuan waved his hand.
"This …" Wei Changfeng was taken aback.
Her heart had stopped breathing, and her body was starting to stiffen. This was … a coma?
Who was he trying to fool?
"Hurry up! If you don't want her to die, scram! "Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up.
"Yes!" Seeing the young master fly into a rage, even though Wei Changfeng was perplexed, he still gritted his teeth and walked out of the room, closing the door behind him.
Seeing that Wei Changfeng had left, Zhang Xuan exhaled a mouthful of turbid air and sat on the floor.
Using the Library of Heaven's Path to check on her condition, he found that she wasn't in a deep coma, but … she was really dead!
Just that, she had just breathed her last, and her soul hadn't left her body yet.
Under such circumstances, even a Seven Star physician would be helpless. However, Zhang Xuan suddenly recalled that Mo Hunsheng had imparted to him a method to revive one's soul.
Thus … he had to give it a try!
If he didn't give it a try, the young lady would surely die, and even a deity wouldn't be able to save her.
"This method of Soul Fusion might harm my soul, but … I can't be bothered with that right now!"
Putting aside his credibility before his subordinates, he couldn't bear to watch a young lady die before him.
Even if he had to pay a heavy price, he wouldn't back down.
With a thought, Zhang Xuan drew his soul out from his glabella.
Floating in midair, the young lady's soul seemed to have been pulled out of her body by some kind of suction force, and it was falling into another dimension.
"Freeze!"
Knowing that it would be impossible to save her once she was pulled out, Zhang Xuan's soul swiftly formed a few hand seals before abruptly pressing it downward.
A unique technique of the soul oracles, Soul Beckoning!
It was an extremely bizarre ability to summon one's soul back.
Huala!
Under Zhang Xuan's palm, the soul, which was on the verge of leaping out of her body, jolted before returning to her body.
However, this wasn't enough.
Even though her soul energy wouldn't leave her body due to the Soul Beckoning, her death had already placed her in a completely different world from her physical body. He had to find a way to fuse them together.
"Enter!"
It was impossible for him to do so from the outside. Just like how he treated Lu Chong previously, Zhang Xuan had to enter the other party's consciousness. Without any hesitation, his massive soul dived right into the other party's consciousness.
In the vast consciousness, a frail young lady floated not too far away with her eyes tightly shut.
It was Wei Ruyan's soul.
"There's only one way to strengthen her soul, and that is to … nourish her soul!"
Zhang Xuan clenched his fists tightly.
The other party's soul was too weak to fuse with her body anymore. There was only one way to strengthen her soul … nourish her soul.
And the best way to nourish her soul was to … nourish her soul!
In other words, he had to consume his soul to nourish the other party.
Even though this method could save a person, it was also a detriment to one's soul. No soul oracle would do such a thing unless the other party was their kin.
To be honest, this was the first time he had met this young lady, so he was a little hesitant about consuming his soul to save her.
But who asked him to 'kill' the other party?
This was a bitter fruit that he had sowed, so no matter how awful it tasted, he had to swallow it!
Otherwise, he would lose his position as the young master.
Tzzzzz!
His massive soul walked up to the young lady and placed his finger on her. Using his arm as a channel, he infused pure soul energy into the other party's body to nourish her.
As his soul energy was sapped, Zhang Xuan soon began to feel fatigued.
Nourishing one's soul with soul energy was equivalent to consuming one's soul. This was a huge blow to one's soul, and the weakening of one's soul was only secondary. In the worst-case scenario, it might even result in one's death.
However, since he had already started, he couldn't back down anymore. Suppressing his fatigue, he infused his soul energy into the other party's body.
Under the infusion of his soul energy, Wei Ruyan's weakened soul grew significantly stronger.
"It's working …"
Seeing that it was working, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. He was just about to continue when he suddenly recalled something. Activating his Eye of Insight, his eyes narrowed, and his soul trembled uncontrollably.
"This is bad, the Innate Fetal Poison … has spread!"
