"I can at most get rid of half of it. You will have to rely on yourself for the rest."
The flower swayed and heavenly light filled the air. It was also full of evil energy.
These two opposing qualities were in one body. Not only did they not contradict each other, they were also harmonious. It was as if this was how it should be.
"I can only get rid of half of it …"
Ling Xian frowned and found it hard to hide his disappointment. But in the next second, he calmed down.
To have hope was already God's blessing. Why would he ask for more?
"With my abilities right now, I can only get rid of half of it. I cannot do anything for the rest," the ghost faced immortal medicine said emotionlessly.
"It's okay." Ling Xian grinned, "You can begin."
Hearing this, the flower didn't speak anymore. As it swayed, it emitted pure heavenly light that surrounded Ling Xian.
In the next second, rays of black energy poured out of his body. They were cleansed by the heavenly light and completely disappeared.
This made Ling Xian click his tongue in shock. He didn't think the curse that even the Emperor of Heaven couldn't do anything about would be so easily resolved by the flower.
However, when he thought of the flower's identity, he felt relieved.
This was an immortal medicine. In some aspects, it was stronger than the Emperor of Heaven!
After some time, the heavenly light dissipated and the ghost faced immortal medicine appeared tired.
Ling Xian, on the other hand, appeared relaxed and happy.
Though he only got rid of half of it, it made him feel a lot more relaxed. At least for the next 20 years, he won't have to worry about suddenly dying. But after 20 years, he still won't be able to escape the fate of death.
In other words, he will have to get rid of the rest of the curse within 20 years.
"Okay, I have done what I can. Whether you live or die will depend on your luck," the ghost faced immortal medicine said softly.
"Thank you for saving me." Ling Xian paid his respect to the flower, his eyes flickered with appreciation.
"If you want to thank someone, thank that person. If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't have shown myself." The flower shook its head.
"I wonder if you can tell me what is the relationship between you and her? Or rather, what is the relationship between me and her?"
Ling Xian was confused. Other than trading with the woman in white, he had no other connection. If he had to ask for help from two immortal medicines just because he consumed a leaf, that was a bit forced.
"You don't know?" The ghost face flower was taken aback.
"I don't know." Ling Xian shook his head, getting more and more confused.
"Since that person didn't tell you, I won't either," the Ghost Face Flower said.
This made Ling Xian frown. He was very confused.
However, since the flower wasn't willing to tell him, he naturally wouldn't force it. Therefore, he changed the topic. His eyes were full of anticipation.
"Dare I ask, does the immortal medicine know of the method to pass through the Heaven Abyss?"
Hearing this, the flower spoke, "Don't even think about that. I am just a celestial medicine. I can help you get rid of the poison and heal your wounds, but if you want me to help you pass through Heaven Abyss, you are dreaming."
"Can't I …"
Ling Xian shook his head with a bitter smile. Though half of his curse was lifted, he could at most live another 10 years. If he didn't want to die, he had to completely dispel the curse within twenty years.
The only way he knew of was to find a member of the Hidden Pavilion and curse the Dark Master who had transformed into a spirit.
However, the Ghost Face Flower had already said it couldn't help him leave. Therefore, why wouldn't Ling Xian be bitter?
Therefore, he asked, "I wonder if the immortal medicine has a way to completely get rid of the curse inside me?"
"There is a way, but it depends on you. Plus, it doesn't solve the root of the problem." The Ghost Face Flower said.
"Please tell me."
Ling Xian was energized. With his current situation, why would he dare to ask for a cure? To be able to cure the root of the problem was already not easy.
"Very simple, extend your life."
"This curse will only eat away at your lifespan. It won't affect anything else. Therefore, no matter what you do, as long as your lifespan is still there, you won't die. "
"Of course, the best way is to breakthrough."
"As long as you continue to breakthrough, not only will you extend your lifespan, but you will also suppress the curse. That way, you will have more time to find a solution. "
The Ghost-faced Immortal Medicine spoke indifferently without any joy or sorrow.
"But if I break through, I will have no hope of leaving Heaven Abyss."
Ling Xian frowned. The Emperor in White had clearly stated that the higher one's cultivation level is, the harder it is to pass through Heaven Abyss. If he breaks through, then he will never be able to leave the Black Tortoise Continent.
"But if you don't break through, then you can only wait for death. Plus, even if you stay at this level forever, you cannot pass Heaven Abyss. "
The Ghost Face Flower said, "One will die very quickly, the other will live for a long time. The choice is yours to make."
Hearing this, Ling Xian silenced.
The Ghost Face Flower was right. If he doesn't break through, then he can only wait for death. But if he breaks through, then he will have some hope.
Therefore, he made up his mind to forget about leaving the Black Tortoise Continent for now and focus on staying alive.
"As long as there is life, there is hope."
The Ghost Face Flower said softly, "I believe you will make the right choice."
"You are right. If I break through, there is a chance of survival. If I don't, then I can only wait for death." Ling Xian grinned, "Even an idiot knows what to choose."
"Very well. I cannot help you with other things, but I can tell you that Heaven Abyss is an unbelievable place. If you're lucky, you can pass without doing anything. "
The Ghost Face Flower "smiled", looking even more demonic.
"Lucky …" Ling Xian shook his head with a bitter smile. He didn't have high hopes for his luck.
"Work hard. I hope we will have the chance to meet again." The Ghost Face Flower swayed, emitting holy light and evil energy. Then, it disappeared without a trace.
This made Ling Xian very curious. Just what kind of spiritual medicine was it? It had both holy and evil qualities.
At the same time, he was curious about the connection between him and the woman in white.
"I look forward to our next meeting. I also look forward to the next time I can leave this damned place …" Ling Xian mumbled to himself. Then, without another word, he turned around and left.
There was no need to think about passing Heaven Abyss. He could only return to the Black Tortoise Continent to break through and find a way to lift the curse.
The way back was very peaceful. Not only did he not run into any ghost soldiers, he didn't even see any green flames.
"If only the next time I come here, it would be so peaceful." Ling Xian exclaimed and returned the way he came.
After an hour, he finally left Heaven Abyss and saw the clear sky of the Black Tortoise Continent.
"It was a terrible trip. Though I came back alive, not only did I not get what I wanted, I was cursed." Ling Xian bitterly chuckled. His gaze turned determined.
The most important thing now was no longer to think about how to return to the universe, but how to break through to the seventh level. Or else he could only wait for death.
"I hope I can break through to the seventh level soon." Ling Xian mumbled to himself, feeling a headache coming on.
The realm of Dao Reasoning was not easy to break through. Even though he was infinitely close to the seventh level after the battle with the Emperor God, to take that final step was still extremely difficult.
At least right now, he had no clue.
"Oh well, I will let nature take its course."
Ling Xian calmed himself down and let go of all the pressure. He planned on playing around and breaking through as he pleases.
