Doumu Yuanjun's Recovery

In the blink of an eye, more than tens of thousands of years had passed within the World Pearl!

At this time, Taichu discovered that aside from their Original Source injuries, even the Dao wounds suffered by Gouchen and Ziwei had been successfully healed under the restoration of Creation Law, Life Great Dao, and the even higher-level Creation Great Dao.

Seeing this, Taichu immersed his consciousness into the Heart of Creation and carefully examined the Original Source he had drawn into it.

In the end, Taichu discovered that with the assistance of the Creation Great Dao and the World Power of the Primordial Small Chaos—

The two men's Original Sources had already been successfully reforged, with some remaining to spare.

Taichu then dispersed the Creation Great Dao, took out their Original Sources, and swiftly sent them into their bodies. Operating Hun Yuan Power with the strength of a Third Layer of Hunyuan Golden Immortal, he soon helped them refine and absorb them.

This refinement took several thousand more years.

"Fortunately, this is within my World Pearl, where the flow of time is entirely under my control. Otherwise, who knows whether Star Mother could have held on!"

Seeing that Gouchen and Ziwei had fully recovered, Taichu revealed a satisfied expression. At the same time, he sent two streams of Hun Yuan Power into their bodies.

Gouchen and Ziwei slowly woke up.

The instant they awoke, they felt an overwhelming sense of ease and comfort throughout their bodies.

The two cried out in surprise.

"We really recovered! Ziwei, how do you feel?"

The moment Gouchen sensed his recovery, he quickly looked toward Ziwei beside him, not forgetting to ask after him with concern.

Ziwei immediately replied upon hearing this.

"Big Brother, I'm fine. There's not a single problem!"

The two looked at each other, then turned to Taichu at the same time and pleaded in unison.

"Dao Venerable, is there truly no way to save Mother?"

Seeing this, Taichu spread his hands, his face full of helplessness.

"As for your condition, I have already done all I could. Yuanjun's condition is countless times worse than yours. It is not something so easily resolved, unless..."

Taichu was not unmoved by their plea, but healing the two of them had already taken no small effort on his part.

And by the end, he had deliberately left some room in his words.

Hearing Taichu's words, Gouchen and Ziwei's eyes filled with hope as they anxiously asked.

"Unless what?"

"Unless I break through to the Hunyuan Taiji Daluo Golden Immortal realm right now. Then my strength would rise greatly, my comprehension of the Great Dao would deepen, and healing Doumu Yuanjun would naturally be no difficult matter!"

After hearing this, disappointment appeared in Gouchen and Ziwei's eyes.

But their eyes soon lit up again.

"Then after you save Mother, once your strength improves in the future, can you resolve Mother's problem?"

Taichu fell into thought after hearing this. Only after a long while did he tell them that he did not know either, since he had never encountered a similar problem.

However, Taichu did not shut the door completely. He only said that he would do his best to try in the future.

The two were already very happy to receive such an answer.

"Let's go. I imagine Doumu Yuanjun is also eager to hear that you have recovered!"

Gouchen and Ziwei's eyes shone upon hearing this, and they swiftly appeared with Taichu in Starlight Hall.

The moment the three appeared, Doumu noticed them.

She then looked at the two who had already recovered. Staring at them in a daze, she spoke incoherently.

"My sons, you... have recovered?"

Disbelief filled her eyes, and she immediately looked gratefully at Taichu beside them.

"Dao Venerable, thank you!"

"From this day onward, so long as the Dao Venerable gives the command, my Star God Clan will brave fire and water without hesitation!"

As soon as Doumu Yuanjun's excited words fell, Gouchen and Ziwei also hurried forward and solemnly promised Taichu.

"And the two of us as well. From now on, we shall follow the Dao Venerable's lead in all things!"

Hearing Gouchen and Ziwei's promise, Doumu Yuanjun did not stop them in the slightest. Instead, relief appeared in her eyes.

Taichu quickly waved his hand.

"Enough. Healing Doumu's problem is the priority. I still have matters to discuss with you afterward!"

Upon hearing Taichu's words, both Gouchen and Ziwei, as well as Doumu Yuanjun, inwardly showed expressions of understanding.

However, they had long understood this. If Taichu wanted nothing, why would he go to such lengths to heal them?

He was not doing this out of boredom. Moreover, they each knew their own conditions well. Without Taichu, they would not have lasted much longer!

They were already more than satisfied with things as they were now!

"Let's go!"

Taichu met Doumu Yuanjun's gaze and spoke calmly.

"I will trouble you, Dao Venerable."

Hearing this, Taichu directly sent a stream of Hun Yuan Power into her body, causing her to fall into slumber. Then, with a grasp of his hand, he brought her into the Primordial World Pearl.

The moment they entered the Chaos World within the World Pearl, Taichu summoned the Creation Great Dao and used it to heal her.

Originally, Taichu had thought the treatment would not be so taxing, but once he began, he realized that he had overestimated himself.

"Sigh, if I had not arrived, you likely would have fallen within this period. I never expected you to have concealed the most serious Origin Dao Wound!"

After discovering this, Taichu could not help but sigh.

"Troublesome as it is, it is not without hope of recovery!"

"I recall that the Chaos Star Tree bears different fruits. There is a special kind of fruit that seems to be perfectly capable of countering Origin Dao Wounds of the stellar type!"

"A fruit condensed from a Top-grade Chaos Spirit Root, and one so compatible with you at that. You are getting off easy!"

With a thought from Taichu, a fruit emitting dazzling starlight instantly floated before him. Seeing this, Taichu activated his Hun Yuan Power and swiftly refined it into a cluster of brilliant starlight essence.

Then, with a point of his finger toward Doumu Yuanjun, the starlight essence entered her body.

The moment it came into contact with her, it rapidly repaired her Origin Dao Wound and even produced a change that surprised Taichu.

"It can actually restore the Original Source she lost. As expected of a fruit borne by a Top-grade Chaos Spirit Root—it truly has extraordinary qualities!

It seems I was too narrow-minded in the past. There must still be many uses for these Chaos Spirit Roots that I do not know of!"

Taichu then focused on healing her and no longer dwelled on the matter of the Spiritual Root.

In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of years passed. Taichu looked at the stellar body, which was about to recover fully. At this time, it was absorbing the surrounding Chaos Qi and the Dao Resonance of the Small World's Stellar Law to restore Doumu Yuanjun's strength.

As Taichu repeatedly used the Creation Great Dao, he also gained certain insights and applications regarding it that he had never discovered before.

"Sure enough, all things in this world must be continuously experienced and applied before new insights and principles can keep emerging!"

Taichu could not help but sigh with emotion.

After several thousand more years passed in the Small World, Doumu Yuanjun's recovery was nearing its end.

Meanwhile, in the Primordial Starry Sky outside, Gouchen and Ziwei were pacing anxiously within the hall.

"Why isn't she better yet?!"

Seeing Ziwei's anxious, uncontrollable state, Gouchen could not help but sigh and remind him.

"Enough, Ziwei. Mother's condition was far more serious than ours to begin with. It is only natural that it would take much longer!"

He then spoke impatiently.

"Enough, stop pacing around. You're making my head hurt. Find a place and sit down!"

Ziwei was just about to retort when he suddenly discovered two figures appearing within the hall.

They were none other than Taichu and Doumu Yuanjun, who had entered the Primordial World Pearl for treatment.

Gouchen and Ziwei immediately rushed excitedly before Doumu Yuanjun.

They continually examined Doumu, who appeared to have fully recovered.

"Mother, are you well now?"

Hearing this, Doumu Yuanjun smiled. Her smile was gentle and carried a touch of maternal affection as she nodded at the two of them.

Gouchen and Ziwei exchanged glances, then questioned Doumu Yuanjun with their eyes.

Seeing this, Doumu's expression hardened, and she scolded the two of them.

"Enough, my sons. Go summon all the remaining Star Gods!"
