Watching the East Gate Guard gradually fade away, the old lady hiding nearby immediately relaxed, took a deep breath, and a small figure darted out from behind, it was Niuniu.
"Granny, will the hero and his friends really not be caught by the bad guys from the Sacred Mountain?" Niuniu asked in a childish voice, tears glistening in her eyes, her small finger nervously drawing circles.
The old lady held Niuniuâs hand tightly and said, "Niuniu, my dear! With the hero around, there is hope for the Central Region. Donât be afraid! Letâs go home!"
"Okay!" Niuniu nodded, a smile on her lips, as radiant as blooming flowers, warming everyoneâs hearts.
Outside the city of Central Region, in the northern suburbs.
The night was quiet, figures moved stealthily, and the moonlight was like a hazy mist woven from water vapor, gently enveloping the distant mountains.
Among the nearby forests, there were many low-level monster creatures patrolling back and forth. A pair of bright red fierce eyes emitted a dazzling light in the night.
Between lush and abundant trees, ancient trees towered, casting a shadow over the moon, creating a cover of darkness.
"Rustle!"
Su Yi and Situ Muyang, along with Achu, flew lightly to the top of the city wall like monkeys, and swiftly headed towards Achuâs mountain temple.
Su Yi activated the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique at full power, along with the Hundred Transformations Step at full power. They passed through a lush mountain valley and in the distance, they saw a desolate and empty ruined temple, with flickering candle lights inside, giving off a sense of desolation.
The two of them hesitated for a moment and then swiftly entered the mountain temple in the moonlight.
Upon entering the temple, Su Yi furrowed his brows slightly. He hadnât expected such a place to exist near the Central Region city.
Inside the temple, the spider webs had formed a thick layer, indicating that no one had been there for a long time.
The dilapidated temple had leaky roofs and drafty corridors. The half-cut statues inside the temple had collapsed beams beside them, giving off a chilling and lonesome feeling.
"Is this where Achu and Uncle Chen live?" Su Yi pondered silently. He hadnât expected their living conditions to be even worse than he imagined.
The two of them survived by begging, barely having enough clothing to cover themselves and not enough food to satisfy their hunger. They had no other means of livelihood and only possessed low martial arts skills. If they encountered harsh weather, it was truly unknown how they could endure.
"Maybe Uncle Chenâs passing away is a lucky thing! This place isnât meant for people to live." Situ Muyang softly sighed and gently placed Achu down.
Achu lay on the soft ground, his face twisted in pain. He kept rolling and groaning, curled up like a shrimp, very sad.
Situ Muyang scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Teacher Uncle, his injuries are too severe. Regular medicine probably canât heal him. So in a hurry, I directly infused my remaining Spiritual Essence into himâŠI didnât expectâŠ" Sigh!
Su Yi softly sighed, "Itâs not your fault. This kid is brave, but unfortunately, his cultivation is too low and he insists on being strong. Otherwise, he wouldnât be in so much pain!"
Just as he finished speaking, Su Yi couldnât help but smile helplessly. If Ling Qianxue wasnât refining the essence blood, she would definitely take this opportunity to teach him a lesson.
Wasnât he always insisting on being strong himself? Thinking about it, this kidâs temperament is somewhat similar to his own.
Looking at the closed eyes and pale face of Achu, Su Yi raised an eyebrow and thought that a few drops of Spiritual Essence shouldnât make someone with such low cultivation suffer like this. He turned his head and signaled Situ Muyang.
"Let me take a look! Muyang, you guard outside. The diversionary strategy wonât last long. If thereâs any movement from the guards of the Sacred Mountain, immediately send me a message!"
Immediately bending down, secretly activating the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique, a tremendous aura was completely released in an instant. The violent aura surged like waves.
Su Yi took a deep breath, and strange, complicated handprints formed in his hand. Suddenly, his entire palm was enveloped in a milky-white glow.
Guided by Su Yi, the unmatched vitality of the Void God Sea gathered gently on the palm, flowing frantically into Achuâs meridians.
As soon as the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique touched Achuâs body, it surged into his body like a dragon entering the sea. It crazily absorbed the energy of Achuâs Spiritual Essence, transforming it into orderly vitality that surged into Achuâs countless meridians.
In an instant, a dazzling brilliance covered the entire mountain temple.
Achuâs body was wrapped in divine light, incredibly radiant. The circulation of vitality inside his body replaced the bursting sound of his skin, resembling the roar of wind and thunder.
In just a few moments, through soul-sensing, Su Yi could sense that the chaotic vitality inside Achu had become well-organized. Every meridian was unobstructed. However, strangely, Achu still didnât wake up.
Initially, Su Yi thought that Achu was in a painful coma because his cultivation was low and couldnât withstand the enormous energy of the Spiritual Essence.
After noticing the extreme disorder in Achuâs meridian circulation, Su Yi used the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique to refine the Spiritual Essence, allowing the restless energy to flow smoothly in his meridians.
After a while, Achu remained unconscious. Su Yi knew it wasnât that simple, so he once again infused a portion of the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Techniqueâs vital energy into Achuâs body to verify.
"Hmm! Whatâs this?"
After the energy flowed through Achuâs meridians, it made a sound like a flowing stream, but it couldnât enter his dantian directly.
If there were outsiders present, they would surely be surprised. Su Yiâs strong and powerful energy circulated through Achuâs small and large meridians before rushing out through his skin pores.
In an instant, Achuâs body was filled with boiling waves of energy, and the emitted energy glowed like tiny rays of light, making the entire mountain temple radiant.
This discovery immediately shocked Su Yi. It meant that Achu was someone who couldnât gather energy and would never be able to cultivate martial arts!
This was a devastating blow to the people living in the Tianman Continent, where martial arts prospered and were revered.
Su Yi, who had identified the cause of the illness, felt extremely disheartened. Due to Achuâs narrow meridians, he couldnât withstand the tremendous power of the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique. The more intense Achuâs surging aura became, the more it indicated how much energy he was losing.
"Ah, itâs such a pity that this kid has naturally narrow meridians, but has such good bones!"
Thinking this way, Achuâs experiences were too similar to his own. Su Yi also couldnât gather energy when he was young, and was considered a waste. Even when he did manage to cultivate energy later on, he only reached the stage of refining essence and transforming energy.
Going around in circles, I discovered that everything was caused by a mysterious glow in my mind, like bricks. It can be said that everything is mixed.
