Yang Clan's land.
This was a land surrounded by mountains and rivers.
The Yang Clan mainly cultivated Black Tortoise Battle Qi and Azure Battle Qi. The Black Tortoise Battle Qi had always been the mainstream Battle Qi of the Yang Clan. The Azure Battle Qi was just another branch of Battle Qi. Compared to the Black Tortoise Battle Qi, the Azure Battle Qi was far inferior.
Unfortunately, after Yang Taihe's accident, the Black Tortoise branch became weaker and weaker. It wasn't until Yang Baiqiang rose up eight hundred years ago that they regained their strength. However, the good times didn't last long. Before Yang Baiqiang could grow up, he died in an accident. The Azure Clan took the opportunity to seize power and smoothly took over the position of Patriarch.
In the past eight hundred years, the Black Tortoise branch's bloodline became thinner and thinner, while the Azure Clan's bloodline was still vigorous. Although their Battle Qi wasn't as strong as the Black Tortoise branch, the Azure Clan became more and more powerful and gave birth to Sages. On the other hand, the Black Tortoise branch continuously lost powerful bloodline descendants. The status of the Black Tortoise branch in the Yang Clan became worse and worse, causing the two branches to become more and more incompatible.
Under such internal and external troubles, it was hard for the Yang Clan not to decline.
On this day, ominous signs continuously appeared in the Yang Clan's land. Tears of blood fell from the sky and lightning continuously intersected. Disasters occurred everywhere in the Yang Clan's land and tens of thousands of people died. This was the death of a Sage.
In one day, the Yang Clan lost four Sages, including the Sage Yang Mingfa.
The fates of the people related to these four Sages were all affected, causing them to have problems and even death.
For a time, the entire Yang Clan was in mourning.
They didn't know what had happened. Why did the Sages of the Yang Clan suddenly fall?
There weren't many Sages to begin with. Now that they had suffered losses, the Yang Clan's vitality would be greatly damaged. What would they do if a great enemy attacked?
In the Yang Clan's forbidden area, the Nine Lotus God Throne brought Yang Taihe and Yang Wu to a pool.
The water in this pond was actually a sacred spring. The Suan Ni's aura was constantly rising, and lotus flowers were blooming everywhere. There were also carps swimming in the pond, and they were very happy.
When the Nine Lotus Divine Throne fell into the center of the pool, the Holy Qi quickly gathered toward it. Unfortunately, the Holy Spring was very weak and couldn't provide much help.
However, for Yang Taihe, it was like a sweet dew after a long time. A bit of devouring power was released from the glabella of his skeleton, absorbing the thin strands of Holy Qi. The light between his glabella became even brighter, and his skeleton was also infused with a layer of Holy Qi, making it even more crystalline.
However, this could not help him regenerate his flesh and blood. Now, he was only left with a trace of his saint soul and skeleton.
If he wanted to restore his physical body, he would need extraordinary means and high-level sacred items.
Apart from that, if he wanted to live, he would need the power of his bloodline to help him regenerate his flesh and blood. That way, there would be hope.
At this moment, the Yang Family's great grandmother returned with the Dragon Rebel Spear.
When she returned with the Dragon Rebel Spear, her body was on the verge of collapse. The tomb qi around her was even heavier.
"Mother, how are you?" Yang Taihe asked anxiously.
"My son, I won't die for a while." The Yang Family's great grandmother forced a smile.
Her situation was very bad. She could only last for a month at most. Thankfully, she'd managed to save her son.
The Yang Family's great grandmother was in a hurry to restore Yang Taihe's body. She quickly took out a large number of sacred items from her Ring of Cosmos to help Yang Taihe recover.
Every single one of these sacred items would make anyone's eyes go red. There was a thousand-year-old blood jade, a thousand-year-old lingzhi, and a ten-thousand-year-old star grass …
"Mother, recover your body first. Don't worry about me," Yang Taihe said with difficulty.
Even though he'd escaped danger, he could only live for a bit longer at most. If he didn't have something to bring the dead back to life, he would only die.
The Yang Family's great grandmother had many sacred items, but not many were of much use to Yang Taihe.
After a round of selection, she took out a jade artifact containing blood. She revealed a bashful expression and murmured, "This is your father's blood. It can help you recover."
After saying that, she prepared to pour the blood on Yang Taihe. Yang Taihe opened his mouth to stop her, "Mother, don't be in such a hurry. My bones still contain the remnant power of Xing Huo. I need to completely expel it before I can absorb Father's blood."
"There's still remnants of power seeping into your bones?" the Yang Family's great grandmother asked with a grave expression.
"Yes. Let's wake the child up. He might have a way," Yang Taihe replied.
"This child is indeed fated to be with us. He should be of our bloodline. I feel very close to him when I see him. The power of his bloodline is probably no weaker than yours. If you want to completely recover, you need his blood." The Yang Family's great grandmother glanced at the unconscious Yang Wu and said with a gleam in her eyes.
"Mother, you're not thinking of using him as a living sacrifice, are you?"
"Why not? If it weren't for you and me, he wouldn't have been born. Since he has such an excellent bloodline, it's his fortune to be sacrificed to save you. In any case, I'll apologize to him on the road to the Yellow Springs."
"Absolutely not. How can I, Yang Taihe, let my descendant be sacrificed to be reborn? I'll live in guilt for the rest of my life. Mother, please don't do this."
"If you don't do this, you'll accompany me on the road to the Yellow Springs. If the Yang Family still needs someone to hold down the fort, as long as you recover to your peak, I believe you can take over my position. This way, I can give your father an explanation when I go to the Yellow Springs."
Yang Taihe said seriously again, "Mother, don't think too much. I have a way to recover. Wake him up first."
"You're not allowed to lie to your mother," the Yang Family's great grandmother said seriously.
"Don't worry. I haven't gotten my revenge yet. I'm not willing to die," Yang Taihe replied.
And so, the Yang Family's great grandmother woke Yang Wu up.
Yang Wu had been knocked unconscious by the horsetail whisk's power on the flying shuttle. His body was bleeding, and he was heavily injured. But after a nap, his injuries were mostly healed.
It had to be said that Yang Wu's immortal body was very strong.
"Granny, we … we're safe?" Yang Wu asked as he patted his head, which was still swollen.
"Good child, we're home," the Yang Family's great grandmother said with a kind face.
If Yang Wu knew that this granny wanted to sacrifice him, he wouldn't think she was kind.
"That's good, that's good. Senior Taihe has been saved, right?" Yang Wu asked, feeling lucky.
"There, he's over there. But his situation isn't very good. He needs your help," the Yang Family's great grandmother said.
Yang Wu looked in the direction that the Yang Family's great grandmother was pointing. He saw Yang Taihe's crystal skeleton sitting cross-legged on the Nine Lotus God Throne.
"How can I help?" Yang Wu asked.
Yang Taihe didn't wait for his mother to speak. He said, "Mother, leave father's blood. I want to talk to him."
The Yang Family's great grandmother hesitated, but she still left the essence blood. She held Yang Wu's hand and said, "Child, I'll leave Taihe to you. I hope you can help him come back to life."
With that, she disappeared from his sight.
Her grave aura was very heavy. She had to get rid of it quickly so that she could live longer.
Even so, in the forbidden land, there was nothing that she couldn't sense. If anything happened to Yang Wu, she wouldn't mind sacrificing him to help him come back to life.
"Young man, thank you for saving me," Yang Taihe said gratefully.
"This is all because of senior's good fortune," Yang Wu replied humbly.
"I still need you to help me recover my body. Please continue to help me," Yang Taihe said.
"Senior, please tell me. As long as I can help, I will do my best," Yang Wu said seriously.
"Alright, absorb the Punishing Fire in my skeleton first. Don't absorb it all at once. Absorb the Punishing Fire in my skull first, then pour the Punishing Fire in my body, and then pour the Punishing Fire in my body. You must do it in an orderly manner. Don't be hasty, otherwise, my skeleton will be completely destroyed because of you absorbing the Punishing Fire. At that time, I will be dead for sure." Yang Taihe instructed.
"Okay, I will be careful." Yang Wu agreed without thinking.
Blue Demoness was his heart fire and he was an alchemist. It wasn't hard to control the fire.
"God Lotus, after he finishes absorbing my fire, you must use your power to protect my skeleton. You cannot let it break," Yang Taihe said to the Nine Lotus God Throne.
"Don't worry, I know what to do," the Nine Lotus God replied.
"Then let's begin."
Yang Wu picked up the blood on the jade and carefully moved toward Yang Taihe.
He came to the Nine Lotus God Throne and summoned Blue Demoness. He pointed at Yang Taihe's bones and said, "Suck out all the fire here first. Don't hurt him."
"Yes, master." Blue Demoness responded and circled around Yang Taihe's bones. It created a powerful suction force and sucked out the fire hidden in Yang Taihe's skull.
Yang Wu saw Blue Demoness sucking out a lot of fire and quickly said, "Be careful. Slow down."
He was afraid that Blue Demoness would use too much force and hurt Yang Taihe's bones.
Blue Demoness did indeed slow down. Strands of black fire seeped out of Yang Taihe's bones. Who would have thought that there were so many flames in the bones?
After these flames were extracted, Yang Taihe's bones began to show signs of collapsing, which gave Yang Wu a big fright. In his mind, he could not help but imagine the appearance of Yang Taihe's bones after they collapsed, and his heart was filled with panic.
"Master, I've finished absorbing the fire here," Blue Demoness transmitted to Yang Wu.
Yang Wu shuddered and quickly came back to his senses. He took out the blood essence from the jade and slowly poured it on Yang Taihe's skull.
Yang Taihe's glabella produced a suction force that quickly absorbed the blood essence and seeped into his skull. His skull had a tinge of blood color, and he transmitted a message with difficulty, "Continue to absorb the flames in the other bones!"
"Quick, absorb the fire in the other bones!" Yang Wu quickly ordered Blue Demoness.
Blue Demoness immediately did as she was told.
The remaining strands of Punisher Fire became its food.
"Pour the blood essence!"
"Okay!"
