"This power... is it just to stimulate the potential of the Saintly Body?"

Li Yu looked at the people who had fainted on the hill, especially lingering on Ye Fan for a moment, and chuckled, "While you're all unconscious, I'll go gather the herbs first!"

With a flash of light, Li Yu's figure shot out instantly.

On the nine mountain peaks of the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Ground, there were divine springs and divine medicines. These were the Undying Elixirs divided into nine portions. How could Li Yu let such good things slip away?

His escaping light vanished, and Li Yu's figure appeared on the mountain peak where the Nine Dragons Coffin Pull had fallen.

"Where are the divine springs and divine medicines?"

Li Yu looked around for a while but found nothing.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to look myself. System, mark the locations of the divine medicines on the nine mountain peaks."

As soon as Li Yu gave the command, the System immediately displayed the locations of the divine medicines.

"So they're here?"

Li Yu smiled and walked towards where the divine medicines were growing.

It was an open space surrounded by old vines. In the center was a spring about a meter wide, from which clear, transparent spring water gurgled.

Beside the spring grew a row of small trees, about two feet tall. The trees had a peculiar shape, with each leaf resembling a palm. As a gentle breeze blew, from a distance, the verdant palms seemed to be waving.

At the top of the small trees hung a fruit as red as blood. The egg-sized fruit was crystal clear, like a cluster of crimson gems.

As he approached the spring, a refreshing fragrance wafted towards him, making Li Yu feel invigorated.

"As expected of the Undying Elixir!"

Li Yu was overjoyed and quickly rushed forward.

"For the Undying Elixir, I only need to collect the fruit. As for the divine spring, I'll take half for now! Greed can't be too extreme. This is someone else's possession after all. If I provoke the formidable one, it'll be over!"

With a wave of his hand, Li Yu's System's collection function automatically gathered the thirteen crimson fruits and half of the divine spring.

"There are still eight more locations!"

Li Yu's figure flickered, and he shot off towards another mountain peak.

Ahead was a spring about two meters wide, from which clear water gurgled. Specks of divine light dotted the water, making it incredibly mystical.

Beside the spring grew eleven plants resembling dwarf pines. The dwarf pines were entirely emerald green, like jade trees carved from emeralds, but at the top of each tree grew a golden fruit the size of a dragon's eye.

"Not bad! Not bad!"

Li Yu chuckled, waved his hand to collect the fruit and half of the divine spring, and turned to leave.

Afterward, Li Yu's figure moved across the nine mountain peaks, collecting the divine medicines and divine springs from each one. Only then did he leisurely leave the sacred mountain and head back to where the others had fainted.

At this time, the people who had fainted on the hill were gradually waking up.

"Ah..."

A shrill scream jolted Zhou Yi awake.

"What's wrong? What happened..."

Zhou Yi rolled over and got up, turning his head to look in the direction of the scream. The scene before him left Zhou Yi dumbfounded. "This... what's going on?"

At a glance, all around were old men and women with withered skin and hair, their faces gaunt. They trembled precariously, on the verge of death, as if only half a step away from expiring.

"What is this..."

Just as Zhou Yi was about to ask, he suddenly saw his own withered hands and wrinkled skin, and his heart leaped in shock. "Could I have become like this too?"

"Heavenly Book Spirit, what's going on? Didn't you say it was a transformation? Why have I become like this?"

Zhou Yi was furious and asked the Heavenly Book Spirit angrily.

"Your Majesty, consuming life force to stimulate potential will naturally lead to excessive depletion of life force. This is not strange," the Heavenly Book Spirit replied unhurriedly.

"It's not strange? How many days do I have left looking like this? If my life is gone, what use is potential?"

Zhou Yi was starting to panic.

"Why has this happened!"

"How did I become like this!"

"Ah!"

At this moment, everyone else was also gradually waking up and discovering the changes in themselves and others. Wails, cries, and all sorts of sounds erupted one after another.

"It must be that Wicked Taoist!"

Liu Yunzhi shakily stood up, pointed at Zhou Yi, and said through gritted teeth, "That Wicked Taoist must have used some evil method to absorb our yang energy. Zhou Yi, did you collude with that Wicked Taoist to frame us?"

"Are you crazy!"

Zhou Yi glared at Liu Yunzhi impatiently. "Don't you see I've become like you all? Absorbing yang energy? Have you been reading too many Liaozhai stories?"

"If it wasn't you, then who? If that Wicked Taoist hadn't tricked us into coming up here, how could we have become like this? Zhou Yi, you're responsible for this."

Liu Yunzhi stared at Zhou Yi with hatred, wishing he could tear Zhou Yi apart.

"Don't jump to conclusions."

At this moment, Ye Fan walked up and spoke, stopping Liu Yunzhi.

"You..."

Zhou Yi looked at Ye Fan's appearance, so surprised he couldn't speak for a long time.

Ye Fan also looked like an old man with white hair, but his face was ruddy and radiant, completely the picture of an old man with the complexion of a youth.

"Yes! I'm also very puzzled."

Ye Fan shook his head helplessly. "My hair is also white, but I feel like my body is better than before. There must be something strange going on here."

"What's strange? Did you collude with that Wicked Taoist too, Ye Fan?"

Liu Yunzhi turned to look at Ye Fan, his face contorted. "Ye Fan, your body has gotten better. You must have colluded with that Wicked Taoist, absorbed our vital energy, and then left a little for yourself. It must be like this!"

"Hmph!"

Ye Fan snorted, completely ignoring Liu Yunzhi.

"Heavenly Book Spirit, what's going on with Ye Fan?"

Zhou Yi looked at Ye Fan's appearance, feeling a bit confused, and quickly asked the Heavenly Book Spirit.

"Your Majesty, Ye Fan is the Saintly Body. His constitution is abnormal, so after stimulating his potential, even though his life force was consumed, his body actually became better."

The Heavenly Book Spirit waved its hand and cast out a light screen, unfolding like a scroll, displaying all the information about the Saintly Body.

"Ancient? Peerless?"

Seeing those adjectives, Zhou Yi's expression became somewhat strange. Ye Fan's constitution was actually that significant?

Seeing that the Saintly Body was no longer suitable for cultivation, Zhou Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief. The reputation of the Indestructible Golden Body was truly too terrifying.

"Oh? You're all awake? Hmm, you've all stimulated your potential, very good, very good."

A beam of colored light descended, and Li Yu's figure appeared on the hill.

"Wicked Taoist, how dare you commit such a heinous act? May you die a terrible death!"

When Liu Yunzhi saw Li Yu appear, he instantly became furious, pointing at Li Yu and cursing him.

"Huh?"

Li Yu turned to look at Liu Yunzhi, frowned, and sighed. "Your state of mind is truly incapable of achieving great things! If I were truly a Wicked Taoist, wouldn't speaking to me like this be seeking death? Ambitious but lacking talent, not knowing when to advance or retreat, your path won't go far!"

Li Yu stopped paying attention to Liu Yunzhi and turned to look at the others. "Everyone, do you wish to regain your youth?"

"Ah? We can regain our youth?"

"That's great! That's great!"

"Thank you, Immortal! Thank you, Immortal!"

Upon hearing Li Yu's words, everyone was instantly overjoyed.
