Inside the Painting of the Nine Immortals, the scenery was picturesque and peaceful.
On top of the Mount of the Healing Soul, the Immortal of Alchemy, Lian Cang Qiong, frowned as he stared at Ling Xian, who was sitting in a lotus position. He found it hard to hide his worry.
Behind him, Feng Qing Ming looked worried as well and sighed, "This is the first time I've seen him so heavily injured."
"Half of his bones are broken, and his Golden Dan is cracked. With his capabilities, he must've experienced a difficult battle." Liao Cang Qiong sighed.
"Don't worry. Though he is heavily injured, his life is not in danger."
Feng Qing Ming comforted, "Plus, since he came back alive, it means he won again. You should be happy."
"Happy?"
Liao Cang Qiong bitterly chuckled, "I'd rather he live a peaceful life than face enemies and spend the rest of his life in the fire of war."
"An unpolished jade will not be useful. Don't forget, he has the future on his shoulders. That is the biggest burden in history."
Feng Qing Ming's expression turned serious as he said in a low voice, "The moment you chose him, it meant he has to shoulder this responsibility. Therefore, the difficulty he faces now is training, a training that he must go through. "
"I know." Liao Cang Qiong was silent for a while, "But, we haven't asked for his opinion."
"Is there a need to ask? When he reaches that step, he has to accept. For himself, for his friends and family, he has to accept. " Feng Qing Ming grinned, "If he can complete that task, then he will truly be the ruler of the universe. I believe he will accept."
"But, that task is far too difficult." Liao Cang Qiong sighed and couldn't help but reminisce.
That tragic scene appeared before his eyes, and he still had lingering fear in his heart until now.
"It's because it's too difficult that he has to go through hundreds of battles." Feng Qing Ming sighed and waved his hand, "Let's stop this topic. Ling Xian is so heavily injured. As his Master, aren't you going to do something? "
"Only the Immortal's Soul is left, and there are no spiritual Dans. I have the heart but no the strength."
Liao Cang Qiong shook his head with a bitter smile, "This fella … He doesn't usually refine medicinal Dans. Whenever he's injured, he relies on his own healing abilities. Luckily, his majestic blood is too heaven-defying. If it wasn't for it, he would've died many times over. "
"I support what he's doing. Though medicinal Dans are good, they are good Dans.
Feng Qing Ming grinned and complimented, "If you rely on self-healing and spiritual energy, not only will you not be poisoned, you will also train your physique. Every time I recover, my physical body will become slightly stronger. Although the increase isn't great, it will become very significant over time. "
"Liao Cang Qiong of Ling. Ling, Cang Tian," makes, "Ling, makes, and is. Xian ', is Ling, Of Ling Xian, and Saint.
He is., and, and Ling, Ling Xian Ling Ling Ling Ling, and Xian Long Ling Ling Of is is is.
Ling Liang Ling Ling Qi, Ling Ling's Xian of Ling, Ling, of Ling of Ling Ling Feng Was Had His, and of., to Ling 'Ling' Ling of Ling 'Xian.
"Then, let's wait quietly. The spiritual energy inside the Painting of the Nine Immortals is much thicker than the outside world. He will recover quickly." Feng Qing Ming flapped around his sleeve, "Let me help him."
One has to admit that Feng Qing Ming was the Pioneer of Ancient Arrays after all. To be able to instantaneously create a giant Spiritual Gathering Array was something only a handful of people could do.
"Go!"
Flicking his finger, a giant spiritual energy gathering array descended and surrounded Ling Xian.
Instantly, an extremely dense amount of spiritual energy poured into him. It was so dense that it was about to materialize and drip down like rain.
Luckily, there were no outsiders here. Or else it would've caused a commotion.
Being nourished by the dense spiritual energy, Ling Xian, who was sitting on the ground in a lotus position, slowly opened his eyes and revealed a faint smile. Without asking, he knew that other than Feng Qing Ming, nobody else could create a giant Spiritual Gathering Array.
"The spiritual energy is at least 10 times denser. It is no wonder this is a giant Spiritual Gathering Array."
Grinning, Ling Xian once again closed his eyes. Forming a hand seal, he guided the spiritual energy from Heaven and Earth to nourish his body.
Streams of Heaven and Earth spiritual energy swarmed out like the waves of the Yangtze River, surging and surging without end. Then, under his control, it poured into his body and nourished his organs and meridians.
At the same time, the half of the ancient majestic blood that was released began to boil and heal its owner's body.
After this battle, Ling Xian was heavily injured. More than half of his bones were broken, more than half of his meridians were withered, and the worst part was that his perfect Golden Dan had a few cracks!
The Golden Dan was the most important thing for a completion leveled cultivator. From a certain perspective, it was his life. Not only did it represent the source of his spiritual energy, but it also determined whether or not he can break through to the next level.
If the Golden Dan had cracks, then it meant he was severely injured. If he doesn't take good care of it, then he will never be able to reach the next level.
Compared to the injuries on his body, the Golden Dan was more important. Therefore, he chose to repair it first. If he can make it as good as new, then his other injuries won't be as serious.
Therefore, Ling Xian's expression was serious as he carefully manipulated the ancient majestic blood to repair the cracks on his Dan.
Without a doubt, this would be a long and arduous process.
What could he do? The six powerhouses were extremely powerful. If this was anyone else, they would've been smashed into pieces. Not to mention killing two of them and suppressing another two like he did.
Merely having a few cracks on his Dan was already a testament to his powerful physique.
"Next, I will have to wait patiently. But before that, I need to get the blood out of my body. "Ling Xian softly sighed and manipulated his Qi to force the blood out.
Retch!
After puking out a mouthful of fresh blood, Ling Xian's face turned a little paler. However, his breathing improved a little. Then, he endured the excruciating pain and puked out another seven mouthfuls of blood.
Because of this, his face turned even paler. However, his entire body felt much more relaxed. This was the blood that accumulated in his body because of his injuries. If he doesn't puke it out, it will only hinder his recovery.
"Now, I can rest in peace." Ling Xian exhaled deeply. He then closed his eyes and calmly healed his injuries.
He knew very well that the injuries he suffered this time were extremely serious. It would take at least a few months or else he wouldn't be able to recover. Therefore, he calmed himself down and quietly healed.
And the result was just as he expected. After about two months, the Golden Core in his body finally recovered, and even his aura was a bit stronger.
However, though the golden Dan was healed, his bones and veins were not yet healed. He still needed to rest.
Just like that, another month passed. Only then did his bones regenerate and his veins return to normal. His entire person was once again full of energy. If one looked closely, they would realize that his entire body was like jade, flawless and his physique was even more dominating.
"Just like I thought, healing naturally strengthens a person's physique. Though it's not much, as time goes by, I will improve by leaps and bounds. "
Ling Xian slowly opened his eyes. Feeling his strengthened physique, he couldn't help but to reveal a faint smile.
"What a pity. Legend has it that original leveled cultivators, as long as their enlivener is not broken, even if their head is chopped off, they can be reborn." Ling Xian shook his head. Remembering the legend he read in ancient books, he couldn't help but yearn for it.
Legend had it that original leveled cultivators can be reborn from a single drop of blood. Even if their physical body is smashed into pieces, they can rebuild it. Of course, the prerequisite is that the enlivener is not destroyed. If the soul disappears, then there is no way to be reborn.
The battling capabilities of this realm are even more terrifying. It is not difficult for them to crush a mountain with a wave of their hand. Even a single drop of blood is powerful enough to kill a group of foundational cultivators.
Even a normal completion leveled cultivator would find it hard to defend against a drop of blood from an original leveled cultivator. In other words, once one reaches this realm, even in the entire Taoism community, one would be considered a powerhouse.
Therefore, Ling Xian couldn't help but yearn for it. However, he also understood that he was still far away from that realm. Therefore, he hid this thought deep down and focused on what he gained this time.
Fortune and misfortune come hand in hand. Even though this battle put him in a dangerous situation and he almost died there, what he gained was shocking as well. However, what he gained was extremely shocking. Presumably, once all the living beings returned to the outside world, the title of the strongest of the younger generation in the Cloud Plane would fall onto his head.
He fought against six Heaven's Favorites of the same level as him, killed two of them, and defeated the other two. If this heaven-defying performance doesn't make him the strongest of the younger generation, then nobody deserves to be called that.
Of course, Ling Xian didn't care about this title. What he cared about were the three pages of the Divine Book of Genesis.
"Even though I almost died, with these three pages, everything was worth it." The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up, revealing a happy and satisfied smile.
Just how valuable were the pages of the Divine Book of Genesis?
The word 'immeasurable' could be used to describe it. Even the original leveled cultivators would give up everything for it!
Since the history of time, the pages of the Divine Book of Genesis rarely appear. Every time they do, it is accompanied by a storm of blood and a mountain of corpses. Therefore, in the Taoism community, there is a saying.
A page of the book is a mountain.
This mountain refers to a mountain of gold and a mountain of people. What it means is, to acquire a page of the Divine Book of Genesis, one must pay with a mountain of gold or a mountain of people.
It became obvious just how valuable a page of the Divine Book of Genesis was. Yet now, Ling Xian had acquired three of them. Why wouldn't he be ecstatic?
Even if he had to pay an even greater price, he would be willing to go through a difficult battle!
All because these were pages of the Divine Book of Genesis that could tempt even the omnipotent!
"The pages of the Divine Book of Genesis that are known to be worth a mountain of gold … I cannot believe I can acquire three of them at once." Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction and planned on taking out the pages to enlighten himself.
Just then, an extremely terrifying amount of energy poured out of his body and began to burn like a raging fire. His white robe and black hair began to tussle in the wind, emitting a terrifying amount of Qi.
This sudden turn of events made Ling Xian frown. His eyes revealed his suspicion. But very quickly, he understood what was going on and a trace of joy flashed across his face.
"I … am breaking through?"
