Chapter 94

The young girl in white glanced at the boy in the corner, her heart not as calm as it appeared on the surface.

Although she was born with extraordinary origins and had seen much, she was still a girl in her teens. In matters of life and death, she could not help but feel panic.

However, in front of the young Taoist, she did not want to show any signs of panic.

"If I had known there was a ghost king inside, I shouldn't have been so任性 and entered the earth veins alone. If Auntie were here, a mere ghost king could be defeated with a wave of her hand. I wonder where Auntie is trapped, that it can actually confine her?"

The young girl in white sighed. For most of the day, while the young Taoist was drawing the thunder talisman, she seemed idle, but in reality, she was secretly organizing some of her treasures. Unfortunately, she had been too careless, and her treasures were not on her. Only the talisman sword given by the young Taoist had some use.

Since the young Taoist took the golden spiritual liquid, two hours had passed.

The young girl in white carefully observed him and noticed a faint white mist rising from his head.

On his clean and handsome face, there seemed to be many beads of sweat.

Qin Xianyu sat cross-legged, his body trembling slightly.

"These spiritual liquids are too potent. I noticed this when I took spiritual water in the past. Later, when refining jade pills, I guessed that the effects of spiritual liquids were even more astonishing. I had already found a method to hold the spiritual liquid under my tongue and use true qi to gradually extract the internal spiritual energy. However, to rapidly enhance my cultivation, I had no choice but to drink a large mouthful of spiritual liquid in one go."

If he proceeded gradually, Qin Xianyu could smoothly reach the peak of the Qi Cultivation stage in a few months, allowing him to release true qi externally.

However, at this moment, it was extremely risky.

It was like eating several months' worth of food in one day, which could easily burst the stomach.

Even though true qi was gentler than internal strength, it was still very harmful when rapidly circulating. Qin Xianyu felt his internal meridians gradually being damaged. If he did not extract the energy from the spiritual liquid, it would dissipate, wasting the spiritual liquid. Moreover, it could cause his body to collapse due to the inability to withstand it.

The young girl in white looked at him and whispered, "Eight inches of true qi?"

But the Taoist's aura continued to rise.

What kind of astonishing spiritual liquid could make him advance to eight inches of true qi in one breath and still not stop?

"This is almost a high-grade spiritual pill, or even more astonishing," the young girl in white thought to herself. "Where does this spiritual liquid come from? Why would such a treasure exist in the secular world? How did this young Taoist obtain it?"

Although many thoughts flashed through her mind, for her, even immortal pills were ordinary, and she might not be moved by them. Therefore, these thoughts only briefly crossed her mind, and she did not pay much attention. She was more concerned about whether this young Taoist could withstand the rapid increase in true qi.

Would the excessive energy from the spiritual liquid be too much for him to handle?

The young girl in white sighed softly, "He's really pushing himself to the limit."

A thud sounded from Qin Xianyu's body, and a blood mist burst from the young Taoist's body.

The damaged meridians caused the acupoints to be stimulated, unable to control the blood flow.

The young girl in white's expression changed slightly.

The Taoist, who was sitting cross-legged, had finally entered an extremely dangerous state.

If he made a single mistake, the true qi and spiritual liquid would destroy his body.

...

There was only a small amount of spiritual liquid left in the water bag, not even enough to fill a small teacup. The rest of the spiritual liquid had been drunk by Qin Xianyu in one gulp.

"When I studied medicine, I knew that overeating was extremely harmful to the body. Indeed, it is so," Qin Xianyu thought to himself, bitterly smiling.

At this moment, he had indeed reached a critical point.

With eight inches and four points of true qi, he could forcibly increase it to nine inches of true qi in about two hours, at which point he could release true qi externally.

However, his internal meridians were already subtly damaged. Could he endure for two hours?

The Purple Mansion Divine Court Mixed Primordial Ancestral Qi True Technique was rapidly circulating, the true qi flowing, gradually dissolving the spiritual liquid in his abdomen and integrating it into his body.

"I hope it's in time."

A day has twelve hours.

However, Qin Xianyu and the girl had already been in this place for more than ten hours.

...

The malevolent fog gradually changed.

The gray figure remained calm, his form gradually dispersing into a large cloud of fog, merging with the malevolent fog behind him.

Formless and intangible, not constrained by any shape.

When he dispersed his body into fog,

The many beasts that were lying on the ground all stood up and gathered in front of the rock wall where the two people had disappeared.

A tiger was next to a goat, a goat was next to a wolf, a wolf was near a python, a gray ape, and a gray rabbit. In the wild, these would be predator and prey, but here, they were of the same kind.

All were fierce beasts, under the command of the ghost king.

The ghost king had merged himself into the malevolent fog, making no sound.

Carefully calculating, the effects of the magical treasure should be nearing, and the two people should reappear soon.

What difference did it make if it was an extraordinary treasure?

After all, the one using the treasure was merely a girl at the Qi Cultivation stage.

In the silent underground chamber, a crisp sound suddenly echoed.

A pair of indifferent fog eyes appeared in the malevolent fog, focusing on the rock wall.

The rock wall seemed like porcelain, covered in cracks.

The effects of the treasure were nearing, and the two cultivators were about to reappear.

Many fierce beasts growled, eager to move.

When a hum sounded from the malevolent fog, a gray ape howled and suddenly charged forward.

The gray ape fiercely collided with the cracks.

Cracking sounds echoed, and the cracks burst open, slicing the gray ape into countless pieces of flesh and blood.

The space in front of the rock wall, like broken porcelain, revealed two figures.

One was sitting in meditation, enveloped in smoke, trembling slightly.

The other, the young girl in white, raised her hand and threw something.

It was a golden light.

In the underground chamber, the golden light flashed.

Bloodlight bloomed.

A straight line of bloodlight illuminated the eyes.

Where the talisman sword cut, the blood of the fierce beasts sprayed, and they died on the spot, revealing a straight path. At the end of the path was the malevolent fog.

Although the young girl in white was caught off guard, she still directed the talisman sword at the malevolent fog. However, the fierce beasts between her and the fog were all pierced by the talisman sword.

"Return!"

The young girl in white beckoned, and the golden light turned and returned to her hand. However, the talisman sword seemed to have become even dimmer.

The malevolent fog rolled continuously, as if trying to form something.

Many fierce beasts rushed forward.

The young girl in white did not pay attention to the fierce beasts and raised the talisman sword again.

The golden light flashed again.

The malevolent fog dissipated.

Seeing this, the young girl in white was not pleased but startled, her expression changing drastically. She thought to herself, "This cunning fellow actually retreated to the depths. The malevolent fog in front of me is just earth malevolent qi?"

The fierce beasts were already approaching.

The wind howled in the underground chamber.

True qi was released externally.

The girl was surrounded by an invisible wind, holding Qin Xianyu's long sword and cutting down a wild wolf.

But the fierce beasts kept coming, and the malevolent fog rolled, attacking again.

The talisman sword had missed its target. How could she protect herself?

The girl felt an intense cold.
