Chapter 356: The Heaviness That Mo Yuxuan Felt

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Di Jiu came to a decision after a short while.

Although his cultivation was weak, he couldn’t belittle the strength of a late-stage Immortal Spirit Body.

Even though he hadn’t been in contact with the prosperous Immortal World before, there couldn’t have been many late-stage Immortal Spirit Bodies around. Also, there was possibly nobody else who had used the Universe Membrane fragment to help the body transcend nirvana like he had.

In other words, his body was amongst the strongest in the Immortal World. If even he couldn’t make it in, then few people from the Immortal World could.

When Di Jiu thought of this, he immediately put the Quintessential World into his Spiritual Sea, lifted his hand and put the Primeval Thunder Rock into his Quintessential World. He dashed right into the whirlpool before the next wave of thunder streak pillars struck him.

Di Jiu was also circulating the Colossal Kun Body-Tempering Art like crazy, as he could only hope for the best now.

Boom! An extremely frightening revolving force swept over the moment Di Jiu dashed into the whirlpool.

Di Jiu only felt himself getting hacked into pieces as he was overwhelmed by that immense pain. He fainted after a short while.

Di Jiu couldn’t tell how much time had passed by the time he woke up. However, he felt excited the moment he opened his eyes. Surviving this was the greatest stroke of luck he had experienced.

However, Di Jiu felt that something was amiss after all this excitement. He felt as if he had lost all sensation in his body. Fortunately, he still had his Spiritual Force. When his Spiritual Force landed on his body, even he was shocked by how wretched he was now.

Ever since he had begun body-tempering, getting injured had become a given, as well as an ordinary occurrence for him. However, he hadn’t ever been so seriously injured before.

Regardless of how seriously injured he had been in the past, he had still had blood and flesh. However, now, he had been reduced to a skeleton, which was still a bit of an exaggeration.

Small pieces of skin remained sticking to his skeleton as fresh blood dripped. Even though his heart was protected by the skeleton, it had still been ripped apart.

Fortunately, his Spiritual Sea was condensed and his Principal Spirit was strong. Thus, his soul had not been hurt.

Di Jiu took a deep breath. Fortunately, his skeleton was strong. Otherwise, perhaps only his Principal Spirit would have been left.

This was the advantage of having a Tempered Body. As long as his skeleton remained, his cultivation would not be affected after he recovered from his injuries.

The void was vast. From time to time, a few meteorites would flash across Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force, which made the void look exceptionally boundless and majestic. However, the void was dark and gray in Di Jiu’s opinion.

Di Jiu entered his Quintessential World immediately. He rejoiced over the fact that he had been thoughtful enough to have preserved his Quintessential World in his Spiritual Sea. Otherwise, his Quintessential World might not have been his anymore.

“Big Brother, how did you get yourself into this mess?” asked Black Fire and Little Tree in shock as they hurried over when they saw Di Jiu.

The first thing that came to Little Tree’s mind was that if his Big Brother had been reduced to such a state due to an attack from a strong opponent, then hiding in the Quintessential World wouldn’t help much.

Black Fire and Little Tree did know that Di Jiu had dashed into the Thunderous Floating Island. However, they didn’t know that he had dashed into the void whirlpool in the middle of the island.

Di Jiu consumed a few healing elixirs that he had obtained from the sect masters’ rings.

“Ah!” A hoarse shriek was heard. Then, Di Jiu saw Mo Yuxuan sit up and stare at him.

“Junior Sister Mo, are you recovering?” Di Jiu looked at Mo Yuxuan in surprise. Mo Yuxuan’s charred body had recovered quite a bit. At least, she looked human now.

It was Di Jiu who didn’t look like a human now. Actually, nobody in Di Jiu’s Quintessential World looked like a human.

“Are you Di Jiu?” screamed Mo Yuxuan in shock as she finally recalled him.

Di Jiu laughed as he replied, “Junior Sister Mo, it is really wonderful that you have finally come back to your senses…”

Di Jiu had originally wanted to ask Mo Yuxuan how she had managed to recover her senses as well as part of her body. However, he discovered the answer the moment he saw a partially-used wood-element spirit meridian underneath Mo Yuxuan.

How stupid of him! If he had known earlier that the wood-element spirit meridian would help Mo Yuxuan, he would have put her into his Quintessential World long ago.

“What happened to your body?” Mo Yuxuan asked as she looked blankly at Di Jiu. It seemed that she hadn’t recalled everything yet.

Immediately, Little Tree said, “It was all because of you. Big Brother went to the Thunderous Floating Island by himself to save you. That place is murderous. Your injuries were caused by the thunder, right, Big Brother?”

By now, Mo Yuxuan had recalled everything. Her memory of everything that had happened while she had been following Di Jiu became clearer and clearer.

She remembered it all, right from the time when she had become obsessed with the Virtuous Nirvana Sect, to the time she had tagged along behind Di Jiu whilst wandering in the Sunset Immortal World, to the time when he had brought her into the Sky Screen Pit…

When Di Jiu had almost gotten killed by the Heavenly Fire Spirit, she had rushed to his rescue subconsciously and gotten burned by the Heavenly Fire Spirit as a result.

Di Jiu hadn’t forsaken her. He had left the Sky Screen Pit with her and searched high and low for an immortal spirit herb that could help save her life. These memories, as well as what Little Tree had just said, made Mo Yuxuan completely understand why Di Jiu had gotten so seriously injured.

It was because he had, for the sake of finding a healing spirit herb for her, gotten seriously injured by the thunder streaks in the Thunderous Floating Island.

“I’m sorry, Senior Brother Di…” said Mo Yuxuan. She was somewhat panicked, because she knew what had happened to her.

Although the wood-element Spirit Root had helped her regain her senses, there was no way to heal the injuries that she had sustained. After all, she had been burned by the Heavenly Fire Spirit. How would she be able to find a way to heal her injuries?

Di Jiu swallowed a few healing immortal pills again as he waved his hands and said, “I wanted to leave the Immortal World, but I subsequently got strangulated by the void whirlpool. Fortunately, I succeeded. We will be able to find something to help heal you as long as we can get to the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City.”

Di Jiu scanned her casually with his Spiritual Force. He could tell that the burns had nothing to do with the fact that Mo Yuxuan had been able to regain her senses, or whether her body could fully recover in the future. Such a recovery would only be superficial if her body was not healed of the injuries inflicted by the Heavenly Fire Spirit.

“Senior Brother Di, nothing can heal me. You don’t have to risk so much for me…” said Mo Yuxuan, who was feeling scared and worried.

The Virtuous Nirvana Sect had always been a sect that gave. She had gone to the Cultivation World for the sake of protecting it and the various sects there.

However, now, someone whom she barely knew was risking his life to save her. This made her fearful. She shouldn’t be enjoying all this, as she was a Virtuous Nirvana Sect cultivator. The Virtuous Nirvana Sect had always been helping others, and its disciples had been offering themselves to others.

Di Jiu smiled and said, “We are friends, Junior Sister Mo. You defended the Galaxy Master Sect for a period of time when I ascended to the Immortal World in the past. Moreover, you risked your life to save me when we were in the Sky Screen Pit. Thus, it is only right that I help you find the immortal herb you need to save your life now.”

“No…” said Mo Yuxuan as she quickly waved her hand. “That’s not the same. I would have stopped anyone from attacking the Galaxy Master Sect, even if I didn’t know them. That was my job…”

Mo Yuxuan didn’t know what else to say. She had only done what she was supposed to. However, Di Jiu hadn’t once forsaken her after he had saved her in the Virtuous Nirvana Sect. Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciples had always been coveted by cultivators who harbored evil designs in the Cultivation World. She had also been chased by many people who had wanted to kill her ever since she had come to the Immortal World.

However, not only did Di Jiu not covet her Nirmala Spirit Body, but he had even risked his life to save her on multiple occasions.

She would have accepted all this if Di Jiu had liked her. Although she couldn’t be Di Jiu’s cultivation partner, she would have used her life to repay him. However, she knew very well that Di Jiu had not saved her because he liked her, but only because of the insignificant things that had happened when they had first gotten to know each other. She felt heavy-hearted because she was a Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple who was used to contributing.

Di Jiu laughed and said, “I didn’t think it was your job. In fact, I agreed with what you told me. One always has to keep one’s conscience clear. Don’t believe everything that your masters or sect masters taught you. Sometimes, they might be wrong too.”

Mo Yuxuan quieted down as her gaze landed on a fruit tree not far away from her. Immediately, she let out a shriek. “Senior Brother Di! That’s the Rainbow Immortal Peach! Quickly, take one! That is the best thing used for condensing one’s body. It can also strengthen your life-force.”

In Di Jiu’s opinion, the Rainbow Immortal Peach couldn’t increase his lifespan. However, he was so badly mutilated now that he only had his skeleton left. He only needed one Rainbow Immortal Peach to help most of his body heal. The rest would depend on his cultivation afterward.

Di Jiu shook his head. However, he didn’t answer Mo Yuxuan. He only turned around, landed on the tattered middle-grade spirit meridian, and said, “Let me cultivate for a while first.”

The Rainbow Immortal Peach was meant to prolong Mo Yuxuan’s life. He didn’t necessarily have to take it. However, Mo Yuxuan would have less time left for every Rainbow Immortal Peach she didn’t have.

Mo Yuxuan was baffled as she looked at Di Jiu. She didn’t understand why Di Jiu wouldn’t take the Rainbow Immortal Peach. Was this not his world?

Little Tree chuckled. “Big Brother is leaving the Rainbow Immortal Peach for you. There have only been four. You consumed one, so there are only three left now. You won’t hold on for much longer if you don’t have the Rainbow Immortal Peach and depend only on the wood-element spirit meridian.”

“Ah…” Mo Yuxuan said. She was stunned yet again.
