Clearly, Old Medicine knew those immortal herbs would be very useful.
Otherwise, Lin Xiao would not have brought them up. The immortal herbs would be useful not only now, but in the future as well.
This was a long-term benefit.
Lin Xiao knew Old Medicine had already made up his mind.
Yet he continued, "Teacher, if-if you possessed Poison Teacher, could you unleash your full strength?"
Old Medicine could possess people. If he possessed Du Busi, could he unleash even greater power?
Old Medicine said, "No. Du Busi's strength is already at the Dou Emperor level, and his soul power isn't weak either. If I possessed him, it would harm not only me, but him as well."
Old Medicine rejected the idea, leaving Lin Xiao frozen in place.
No, I can't let Teacher act. If we lose the immortal herbs, so be it. That's fine, but nothing can happen to Old Medicine.
Lin Xiao still knew how to weigh what mattered most.
"Xiao Xiaozi, let Old Medicine act, then find another piece of spirit gold. I can keep him awake so he won't fall into slumber."
Electrolux's voice rang out. Clearly, he was close to recovering.
Even his voice had regained its vigor.
Hearing this, Lin Xiao began to think. As long as Old Medicine did not fall asleep, with the immortal herbs available, he could teach Lin Xiao alchemy and absorb the herbs to recover.
It seemed feasible!
"Teacher, would this work?"
Lin Xiao asked Old Medicine.
"Yes. Although spirit gold isn't much use to me, it can keep me from falling into slumber."
Old Medicine spoke after thinking it over. He had experienced spirit gold himself, so this was entirely feasible. Although it could not restore him completely, it could keep him awake.
"Then, Teacher, could you capture that divine sense?"
Lin Xiao grew even bolder. If they captured that wisp of divine sense, things would get interesting.
"You brat, that's a good idea. We'll have to see how strong that divine sense is."
"If it isn't strong, I could capture it."
Old Medicine chuckled. This brat was even more ruthless than he was.
Even if it belonged to God King Tang San, a wisp of divine sense should not be that powerful. A Dou Emperor was already equivalent to a Level 98 Title Douluo, while Old Medicine had once been a Dou Venerable.
Even with only his soul power, he should have the strength of a Dou Zong.
If he went all out, he should be able to capture it.
"Old Medicine, capture it for me. I'll make Xiao Xiaozi a trump card!"
Electrolux hurriedly spoke up. Old Medicine might hesitate to do something so cruel, but Electrolux was different.
He was a little more ruthless than Old Medicine.
"If we're doing that, we can't let Du Busi use the poison source to break through to Level 99."
"When the time comes, you need to run immediately. Have Du Busi take you away as fast as he can."
Old Medicine continued, beginning to arrange everything.
Lin Xiao nodded. That was fine. Even without the poison source, would they not still have the immortal herbs?
"Teacher, I know what to do."
After Lin Xiao finished speaking, Old Medicine fell silent.
Seeing that Lin Xiao had not spoken for a long time, Du Busi fell silent as well.
Lin Xiao raised his eyes to him. "Teacher, we have a better method."
Du Busi's eyes lit up, and he stared straight at Lin Xiao. How had he come up with one so quickly?
"Lin Xiao, what exactly is this method?"
Du Busi was very curious. Since they were dealing with divine sense, the immortal herbs were surely out of reach, and they had no medicinal pills either.
But that poison source...
For a moment, Du Busi could not figure it out.
"Teacher, we're going to play for big stakes this time. Do you dare?"
Lin Xiao chuckled, his eyes brimming with excitement.
Du Busi froze, then suddenly thought of something. "You brat, you're not planning to have me fight that divine sense, are you?"
This brat thought far too highly of him.
Although he was powerful, he was not powerful enough to fight divine sense.
Lin Xiao, I know you have faith in your teacher, but sometimes even your teacher is powerless!
Seeing Du Busi's rather timid expression, Lin Xiao could not help laughing. "Teacher, it's nothing like that, nothing like that."
"I'll just need you to run when the time comes. Run with everything you've got."
Lin Xiao spoke with a faint smile. He had never expected Du Busi to have such an adorable side.
"Run?"
Suddenly, Du Busi seemed to realize something. He looked seriously at Lin Xiao. "That teacher of yours is going to act?"
Lin Xiao nodded. "More or less. All we need to do then is run."
Without the slightest hesitation, Du Busi smiled. "All right, I'm in."
"I'd like to see just how powerful your teacher is!"
Du Busi's interest was piqued. He had long been curious about Lin Xiao's teacher. How could he pass up this opportunity?
Was it not just a matter of running? He could not beat that divine sense, but surely he could escape?
With someone else holding the front, if he still could not escape, all his cultivation of Level 98 soul power would have been for nothing.
"When do we leave?"
Du Busi wished they could go right now. It had been so long since he had fought. He absolutely could not embarrass himself in front of this little fellow.
As his third teacher, he could not fall short either.
"Teacher, how about waiting a few more days?"
Lin Xiao spoke with a smile.
"All right, I'll wait a few more days, then." Du Busi smiled as well.
This brat truly was the Body Sect's lucky star.
After the two discussed a few more details, Lin Xiao left and returned to his room.
As soon as he entered, Lin Xiao asked, "Teacher, how is Elder Yi doing?"
"Three days. He'll recover in three days."
Old Medicine checked before answering.
Lin Xiao nodded. That was quite fast. This time, Electrolux should be in the same condition as Old Medicine, right?
"Xiao Xiaozi, Old Medicine gave you a cultivation method. Once you return from that place, I'll give you a planar world."
Electrolux spoke with a smile. This disciple was worth taking.
"Go on, keep boasting. I'm listening."
"A whole world, no less."
Old Medicine did not believe him. What kind of world could he possibly give away?
If he could create worlds, would he have ended up in this state...?
"Tch, Old Medicine, I can't match you in strength, but that's not necessarily true in other areas."
Electrolux spoke smugly, completely unbothered.
Naturally, Lin Xiao believed he was telling the truth. He just did not know how it would turn out.
He had never seen it and had no idea what the Undead Demiplane was actually like.
Lin Xiao stopped listening to their exchange, a smile appearing on his face.
The Ice Empress listened attentively, already accustomed to such things. She did not understand the world of these mighty figures. She only needed to cling tightly to their coattails.
Three days passed quickly.
Lin Xiao had also grown familiar with the Body Sect. Over those three days, Du Busi kept coming to ask when they would leave, only to be sent away by Lin Xiao each time.
Inside the ring, Electrolux's gray orb of light had already dispersed.
A figure slowly descended beside Old Medicine.
The figure was very young, with a head of white hair. Every gesture exuded nobility, and the aura radiating from him was immensely powerful.
Old Medicine gently waved a hand, looking him up and down.
"Call me Chen Ge from now on!"
Old Medicine casually tossed out the remark, leaving Electrolux speechless. This old fellow really was still a child at heart.
"Elder Yi, you're so handsome!"
Sitting on Xiao Hei, the Ice Empress could not help exclaiming.
Old Medicine had the bearing of an immortal, while Electrolux looked strikingly godlike. It felt as though one was an immortal and the other a god.
"Little Ice Empress certainly knows what to say."
Electrolux rubbed the Ice Empress's little head, feeling very pleased.
Then Electrolux called to Lin Xiao outside the ring, "Xiao Xiaozi, we can go to that place now."
