Fourteenth-Grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, Bringing the Dying Back to Life! (4K)
"Protector Han from Jinglong Immortal Temple has arrived."
"He is Peak Heavenly Immortal; we are no match for him. Let's go!"
Upon seeing Protector Han appear, the two Grand Supreme Elders of the Yellow Springs Sect immediately used Spatial Talisman to escape.
One Shangguan Zhao'er is already difficult to deal with, and then there's Protector Han. If the two Supreme Elders of the Yellow Springs Sect Grand Supreme Elders don't escape, they'll most likely be killed.
Lu Changsheng's expression was grim. Protector Han was far more troublesome than the Supreme Elder of the Yellow Springs Sect Grand Supreme Elders, especially Shangguan Zhao'er was also infected with corpse poison and was no match for Protector Han.
"So it's you guys. Oh? You're injured?"
When Protector Han noticed that Shangguan Zhao'er was injured, his eyes lit up.
Now that everyone is trapped in the Nine Nether Lands, without the protection of the Temple Master, Protector Han can manipulate Shangguan Zhao'er and Lu Changsheng at any time.
If he leaves the Nine Nether Lands, he won't have a chance to make a move.
"Senior Sister, Protector Han has ulterior motives. We must find a way to escape. I have Turbulent Flow Talisman; I can escape into the depths of the Nine Nether Lands. Protector Han might not dare to pursue us immediately."
Lu Changsheng secretly held up the Spatial Talisman "Turbulent Flow Talisman" and transmitted his voice to Shangguan Zhao'er.
"Um."
Shangguan Zhao'er also knew that Protector Han was ill-intentioned.
She used her inner strength to suppress the corpse poison, then moved closer to Lu Changsheng.
The two disciples also received a secret telepathic message from Lu Changsheng and moved closer to Lu Changsheng.
When Protector Han saw Shangguan Zhao'er standing next to Lu Changsheng, he was consumed by jealousy.
He was a Peak Heavenly Immortal, just one step away from becoming a supreme Great Luo Golden Immortal, and he came from the High Antiquity Cultivation Aristocratic Clan with a distinguished background.
Shangguan Zhao'er actually looked down on a master like him, and instead associated with Lu Changsheng, who was only Earth Immortal.
"Shangguan Immortal Maiden is injured, perhaps this old man can cure the poison. Let me examine your injuries."
Protector Han walked over step by step.
"Shangguan Immortal Maiden is truly a beautiful woman with an elegant demeanor, it's just a pity she fell into Master's hands, I'm not fortunate enough to enjoy her."
Sun Peng knew what his master was planning to do, and he watched Lu Changsheng and his group with schadenfreude, thinking to himself.
I know what you're thinking, but don't even think about it.
Shangguan Zhao'er reached out and grasped Lu Changsheng's hand to ensure that the two could use the Talisman to escape.
Lu Changsheng was slightly surprised; Shangguan Zhao'er's hand was warm and smooth like jade.
Xiao Fan and Ning Qianqian also came closer.
Protector Han's face darkened with displeasure, turning increasingly ashen. "Shangguan Immortal Maiden, are you deliberately trying to provoke me?"
"Protector Han, if you have the guts, come and hunt us down in the depths of the Nine Serenities Netherworld!"
Lu Changsheng's True Qi has fully activated the Turbulent Flow Talisman.
Spatial Rift appeared, and Lu Changsheng, along with Shangguan Zhao'er and his two Disciples, entered the Spatial Turbulence.
Before leaving, Ning Qianqian used the Demon God Bell to temporarily immobilize Protector Han, preventing him from destroying the Spatial Rift immediately.
Ning Qianqian possesses the Dragon Emperor Bloodline and is at the Earth Immortal Realm. Even if she cannot truly seal Protector Han with the Low-Grade Supreme Treasure, the Demon God Bell, it can at least serve to interfere.
Protector Han's expression changed. He hadn't expected Lu Changsheng to be so decisive, fleeing shortly after he appeared, as if he already knew that Protector Han intended to harm them.
Protector Han calculated with his fingers and deduced the direction of the Spatial Talisman: "They fled towards the depths of the Nine Nether Lands, a forbidden Forbidden Grounds within Forbidden Grounds, where even Great Luo Golden Immortal could perish."
Sun Peng stepped forward and asked, "Master, should we chase after them?"
"I possess the Dragon-Seeking Ruler, which allows me to navigate and avoid some terrifying beings in the Nine Nether Lands. They cannot escape my pursuit. Without the Temple Master, let's see who can protect them. I must obtain Shangguan Zhao'er before she enters the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm, otherwise, I will not be her match in the future. Now that she is suffering from severe poison, this is a golden opportunity."
Protector Han produced a Bronze Ruler shaped like a dragon, engraved with celestial patterns.
Deep within the Nine Nether Lands, darkness reigns, Yin Sha Qi permeates the air, with the mournful cries of High Antiquity Evil Soul echoing intermittently.
Even though Lu Changsheng was Earth Immortal, he was still terrified.
Within the Yin Sha, countless Evil Soul roam.
No wonder the Nine Serenities are one of the Forbidden Grounds of the Immortal Realm.
This Nine Nether Lands is teeming with countless Chimei Wangliang, as well as the remnants of High Antiquity Gods and Devils. If Great Luo Golden Immortal were to encounter these beings, he might very well be devoured by the myriad ghosts.
Xiao Fan activated the "Divine Emperor Flame-Manipulating Instruction," and a ball of flame appeared in his palm, allowing him to barely see his surroundings.
"This, this is..."
Xiao Fan discovered that ahead of him was a huge, boundless void, as if the earth had collapsed out of thin air.
The light emanating from the flames in Xiao Fan's palm was swallowed up by the void as soon as it approached it.
Even light cannot escape!
Xiao Fan was extremely shocked.
The Nine Nether Lands are filled with eeriness, and terrifying black holes remain unchanged since time immemorial.
"We seem to have reached the very edge of the Nine Nether Lands, and we can't go any further. Ahead lies the 'Ten-Thousand-Zhang Abyss,' from which even Great Luo Golden Immortal cannot escape. According to records, several Great Luo Golden Immortals once tried to explore it, but after entering the Ten-Thousand-Zhang Abyss hand in hand, they never came out again... cough cough cough..."
Shangguan Zhao'er coughed violently, and the blood she vomited was already black.
Lu Changsheng placed his hands on Shangguan Zhao'er's back and circulated his internal energy, attempting to use his True Qi to remove the poison.
Soon, beads of sweat appeared on Lu Changsheng's forehead.
Even with his skill, he couldn't help Shangguan Zhao'er remove the Middle-Grade Supreme Treasure.
Shangguan Zhao'er smiled bitterly, "Junior brother, you don't need to waste your energy. This is High Antiquity poison. Only if we find our master, with her cultivation level, can it be neutralized. But we don't have that much time to find our master... You should save your True Qi and try to escape from this place, and live well in my place."
Lu Changsheng frowned.
Shangguan Zhao'er had saved his life, so he had no reason to give Shangguan Zhao'er up now.
The Disciple-Teaching System can simulate the fate of its disciples, but it cannot predict Shangguan Zhao'er's poisoning.
How to neutralize the deadly poison is up to oneself.
Lu Changsheng stopped channeling his True Qi into Shangguan Zhao'er and instead closed his eyes in deep thought.
He possessed numerous rare and precious heavenly materials and earthly treasures and healing Medicinal Pills, but the poison Shangguan Zhao'er suffered from was not an ordinary deadly poison, but High Antiquity poison. Even Shangguan Zhao'er, Great Accomplishment Heavenly Immortal, could not neutralize it with her True Qi, and the spirit medicine Lu Changsheng currently possessed could not bring her back to life.
There are eight more opportunities to teach apprentices today.
Lu Changsheng selected eight of the highest-grade spirit medicine from all the available spirit medicine.
He would occasionally reward his disciples with some spirit medicine, since anyone could be poisoned.
But today, he wants to use the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator to find the spirit medicine that can save Shangguan Zhao'er.
[Ding! You have rewarded your Disciple Xiao Fan with the Nine-Flower Jade Dew Pill (Eleventh-grade Medicinal Pills), and have received Apprentice-Teaching Hundredfold Return Reward: the Hundred-Flower Life-Restoring Pill (a twelfth-grade Medicinal Pills).]
Not enough. This level of Medicinal Pills is still insufficient to neutralize the High Antiquity poison that can kill Heavenly Immortals.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng bestowed the Hundred-Flower Life-Restoring Pill he had obtained upon Xiao Fan.
[Ding! You have rewarded your Disciple Xiao Fan with the Hundred-Flower Life-Restoring Pill (a grade 12 Medicinal Pills), and have received Apprentice-Teaching Hundredfold Return Reward: Ten-Thousand-Flower Ten-Thousand-Insect Paste (a Thirteenth Grade Medicinal Pills).]
[Ten-Thousand-Flower Ten-Thousand-Insect Paste: A sacred antidote crafted by Nameless Medical Sage from the Immortal Realm, using ten thousand kinds of immortal herbs and ten thousand kinds of poisonous insects. It can neutralize most of the world's deadly poisons.]
Currently, the highest rank a disciple can be rewarded with is 12th-grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures and Immortal Pill, meaning that Thirteenth-Rank Immortal Pill cannot be given away further.
Lu Changsheng didn't know if the Ten-Thousand-Flower Ten-Thousand-Insect Paste would work.
With Shangguan Zhao'er in imminent danger, Lu Changsheng had no time to hesitate any longer and had to give it a try.
"Senior Sister, my apologies."
Lu Changsheng tore open the fabric covering Shangguan Zhao'er's wound and then applied the Ten-Thousand-Flower Ten-Thousand-Insect Paste to the wound.
Shangguan Zhao'er blushed and bit her red lips. When she discovered that the ointment Lu Changsheng was using was actually Thirteenth-Rank Immortal Pill, her bright eyes revealed a hint of surprise.
The Ten-Thousand-Flower Ten-Thousand-Insect Paste is no ordinary Immortal Pill; it is a priceless Thirteenth-Rank Immortal Pill.
The medicinal effects of the Ten-Thousand-Flower Ten-Thousand-Insect Paste began to take hold, battling against the High Antiquity poison within the body.
"Senior Sister, how are you feeling now?"
Lu Changsheng was unsure.
Shangguan Zhao'er was meditating and circulating her internal energy when suddenly, her face turned deathly pale, and she spat out another mouthful of blood.
Shangguan Zhao'er shook her head with difficulty.
Lu Changsheng frowned.
The High Antiquity poison of the Grand Supreme Elders of the Yellow Springs Sect was indeed domineering; even the Thirteenth-Rank Immortal Pill, the Ten-Thousand-Flower Ten-Thousand-Insect Paste, was ineffective against it.
I've already used two chances today, and I have six more chances to Disciple-Teaching Rebate opportunity.
If the useful spirit medicine cannot be returned within the remaining six apprenticeship opportunities, then Shangguan Zhao'er will surely die.
[Ding! You have rewarded your Disciple Ning Qianqian with Scarlet Soul Pill (a grade 12 Medicinal Pills), and received Apprentice-Teaching Hundredfold Return Reward: Great Void Pill (a Thirteenth Grade Medicinal Pills).]
[Ding! You have rewarded your Disciple Ning Qianqian with Three-Life Profound Gate Pill (a grade 12 Medicinal Pills), and have received Apprentice-Teaching Hundredfold Return Reward: Seven-Life Profound Gate Pill (a Thirteenth Grade Medicinal Pills).]
The Great Void Pill failed.
The Seven-Life Profound Gate Pill failed.
Lu Changsheng used two more chances, but all of these top-grade Immortal Pill failed.
Lu Changsheng realized that the Thirteenth-Rank Immortal Pill could not cure Shangguan Zhao'er's High Antiquity poison.
To detoxify, one would need at least Fourteenth-Grade Immortal Pill.
Why is the drop rate so low today?
Lu Changsheng was always calm and didn't care about returning anything, but things were different now. Shangguan Zhao'er was still waiting for him to save her life.
There are also four opportunities to Disciple-Teaching Rebate.
[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Ning Qianqian Thousand-Year Ice-Heart Lotus (an eleventh-grade rare treasure), and have received a five-thousand-fold reward for mentoring: Ten-Thousand-Year Ice-Heart Lotus (Thirteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures).]
Lu Changsheng used three more chances, but did not return the Fourteenth Grade Poison.
"This is the last time, damn system, it has to succeed."
Lu Changsheng muttered to himself.
This is the last chance today to Disciple-Teaching Rebate.
Shangguan Zhao'er couldn't hold out for more than a day.
[Ding! You have taught your Disciple Xiao Fan Heavenly Mountain Ice Silkworm (an eleventh-grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures), and have received a reward of 660,000 times the reward for teaching a disciple: Hundred-Thousand-Year Ice Toad (Fourteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures).]
[The Hundred-Thousand-Year Ice Toad: Ice Toad has lived for 100,000 years, existing only in the Guanghan Immortal Palace. Its numbers are extremely rare. Because it feeds on various poisons, immortals use Ice Toads to neutralize them.]
Fourteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures?!
This is exactly the level of antidote that Lu Changsheng wants!
Lu Changsheng reached out, and an Ice Toad appeared in Lu Changsheng palm, emitting a bone-chilling cold. It stared at Lu Changsheng with its "wise" big eyes and tilted its head in confusion.
Where is this?
"Ice Toad, we're counting on you now."
Lu Changsheng placed his hand on the toad's back, channeling his inner True Qi to urge the Hundred-Thousand-Year Ice Toad to absorb the High Antiquity poison from Shangguan Zhao'er's body.
Just as Shangguan Zhao'er was feeling unwell, she suddenly discovered that the High Antiquity her body was rapidly decreasing, and her meridians, which had been corroded by the corpse poison, were beginning to regain their vitality.
The Heavenly Immortal Realm is not just a realm, but a symbol of cultivation. The Heavenly Immortal Body possesses extremely vigorous vitality. As long as the High Antiquity poison is removed, Shangguan Zhao'er can fully recover on her own.
"This is... Ice Toad? Junior brother, how do you possess such a rare item?"
Shangguan Zhao'er, having read extensively at Jinglong Immortal Temple, knew that the Ice Toad was a rare creature found only in the Moon Palace, one of the Forbidden Grounds of the Immortal Realm, and could devour most poisonous creatures.
Even the Great Luo Golden Immortal Qingyue Immortal Maiden had difficulty obtaining an Ice Toad, yet Lu Changsheng produced a Hundred-Thousand-Year Ice Toad!
"Occurred by chance."
Lu Changsheng was not at liberty to explain.
The snow-white Ice Toad gradually turned from white to gray, and from gray to black, clearly having absorbed the High Antiquity poison.
All the corpse poison in Shangguan Zhao'er's body was neutralized, and the Ice Toad even let out a burp, patting its belly with its claws, seemingly quite satisfied.
High Antiquity poison can kill even Heavenly Immortal, but for the Ice Toad, it's a delicacy. The Ice Toad truly deserves its reputation as Fourteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
"Junior brother, I'm much better... I'll have to rely on you a lot this time to get out of danger."
Shangguan Zhao'er took out a clean set of clothes, and with a flick of her sleeve, she changed into a new fairy dress, transforming from a frail and delicate woman into a scholarly Immortal Maiden.
"The crisis is not over yet. I can sense Protector Han's aura approaching. He must have Law Treasure to determine the direction in the Nine Nether Lands, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to catch up so quickly, and he's not worried about encountering some terrifying beings in the Nine Nether Lands."
Even Lu Changsheng dared not wander freely in the Nine Nether Lands, yet Protector Han was able to accurately find the path within Nine Nether Lands, which was enough to demonstrate how terrifying Protector Han was.
Shangguan Zhao'er's expression was solemn. "Protector Han comes from a High Antiquity Cultivation Aristocratic Clan. Disciples of this family, upon reaching the Heavenly Immortal Realm High Antiquity Cultivation Aristocratic Clan, must venture out for training. It was precisely because of this background that he became Guardian of the Jinglong Immortal Temple in the Heavenly Immortal Realm. The Temple Master is also reluctant to offend High Antiquity Cultivation Aristocratic Clan. It is also because of his lineage that Protector Han possesses numerous Law Treasures."
"I see."
Lu Changsheng wondered why Qingyue Immortal Maiden hadn't tried to expel Protector Han; it turned out Protector Han had such a terrifying background.
"My injuries have just healed; I'm afraid I'm no match for him."
Shangguan Zhao'er was deeply worried. She hadn't been cultivating for long enough to defeat Protector Han even in normal circumstances, let alone after recovering from a serious illness.
"Senior Sister, don't worry. Before we came, I consulted a fortune teller, and this trip will turn out alright."
Lu Changsheng's eyes sharpened. He believed the prediction from the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator that a benefactor would lend a helping hand.
This is the Great Fortune!
"I never expected you to escape to this place. One more step forward and you'll be in the Ten-Thousand-Zhang Abyss of the Nine Nether Lands. You have nowhere left to run."
"Spatial Imprisonment!"
In the endless darkness, Protector Han's figure appeared like a ghost, with several supreme treasures floating around him, one of which Middle-Grade Supreme Treasure, imprisoned the space!
This was the first time Lu Changsheng had encountered an opponent with so many Law Treasures. As expected of a scion from the High Antiquity Cultivation Aristocratic Clan, his attack was so arrogant.
