Chapter 609 Remnant Soul
Chapter 609 Remnant Soul
"Master!" Ling Yu quickly stepped forward to support Ye Qing'an.
"As I said before, no matter what you see, Master must keep your spiritual power stable and not let your emotions affect your spiritual power. Otherwise, you will definitely suffer a backlash from your spiritual power."
Ling Yu quickly placed her hand on Ye Qing'an's wrist, using her spiritual sense to probe Ye Qing'an's condition.
"Master suffered a backlash from spiritual energy. If he hadn't taken those three pills earlier, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
"Fortunately, the pills you took earlier have slightly reduced the consequences of the spiritual energy backlash. However, your internal organs are still damaged and you will need to recuperate for a while. During this time, it is best not to use your spiritual energy."
Ye Qing'an raised her hand and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth: "Without using spiritual power, that's probably not very likely."
After a pause, he asked again, "What would happen if I forcibly used spiritual power?"
"..." Ling Yu raised her eyes and gave Ye Qing'an a deep look: "It depends on the specific situation. At best, the internal organs will be more severely injured; at worst, the internal organs will rupture and the person will die."
Ye Qing'an nodded: "Okay, I understand."
Ye Qing'an sat cross-legged and began to meditate, while Ling Yu watched silently for a while before standing up and returning to the small house next to the spirit field.
A short while later, Lingyu brought some things out of the hut.
"These two pills will help your injuries heal. Please take them first."
Ye Qing'an nodded, and without even opening her eyes, swallowed the two pills.
"There was another kind of pill that would have been more effective, but it was used in very small quantities, so I couldn't refine it before. I collected some spiritual herbs, and if you take them, it will have the same effect."
"Wait a moment, I'll go and refine it into pills."
Ye Qing'an responded and ate it as well.
After meditating for a while, and with the help of the pills given by Ling Yu, Ye Qing'an finally managed to suppress the surging blood and qi within her body.
As soon as the attack was launched, a summoning circle suddenly appeared around Ye Qing'an.
Ling Yu frowned: "You're still going out?"
"go."
Ye Qing'an stood up abruptly. She didn't know how Yi Moxu was doing. But with the Soul-Locking Curse already cast, Yi Moxu's condition was probably not good.
She regretted it a little; she shouldn't have gone to check on Yi Moxu's condition.
She should trust him...
Ye Qing'an took a deep breath: "If Yi Moxu comes back later, don't tell him that I'm injured."
After Ye Qing'an finished speaking, he stepped into the summoning array.
Emerging from the summoning circle, one finds oneself in a cave.
The cave was enormous, like a palace.
Jiuxiao stood in one of the spots and waved to Ye Qing'an: "Quick, look!"
Ye Qing'an walked over and saw a spirit pillar in front of Jiu Xiao, with something white like light flowing on it.
"Is this the remnant soul of Gu Duo?"
Jiuxiao lowered his voice: "Although I don't know what Gu Duo's remnant soul looks like, I can sense the flow of spiritual energy. This place in the cave has the most abundant spiritual energy, so I guess it should be this thing, right?"
Ye Qing'an nodded and replied, "Regardless of whether it is true or not, it's better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free. Just take this thing away..."
“But…” Jiu Xiao frowned deeply, “I’ve already tried everything, but this thing is impossible to grasp, hold, or contain. I really don’t know how to take it away…”
Ye Qing'an raised her hand, gathered spiritual power in it, and then raised her hand towards the remnant soul. The remnant soul did not react at all, and Ye Qing'an's hand passed straight through it.
"Right? I can't get it out of here at all. I've tried to get it out of here, but it didn't work."
Ye Qing'an squinted at the remnant soul, his gaze lingering on the spirit pillar for a moment before he raised his hand and grasped it.
The spirit pillar was made of an unknown material, but its spiritual power was extremely refined.
However, no matter how hard Ye Qing'an tried, he couldn't move it an inch.
Ye Qing'an silently circled the spirit pillar once: "The reason that attracted this remnant soul to stay here should be this spirit pillar. The spirit pillar has pure spiritual energy and can attract many things."
"To take this remnant soul away, we'd need to find something with even more refined spiritual power than this spirit pillar..."
"Something even more refined than the spiritual energy of this spirit pillar?" Jiuxiao stroked his chin and thought for a moment, and then he actually thought of something: "I know, the spirit spring!"
"Spiritual Spring?" Ye Qing'an turned her head, somewhat puzzled.
Jiuxiao stamped his foot, somewhat anxiously: "Have you forgotten? The spiritual energy in our Cloud Dream Realm is incredibly abundant and refined. The spiritual energy there is more than five times that of ordinary places. And the source of such abundant spiritual energy for the Cloud Dream Realm is the Spirit Spring."
“I often swim in the spiritual spring, and the spiritual power of the spring water must be far superior to that of this spiritual pillar.”
Jiuxiao bit her lip and paced back and forth: "But the water of the spiritual spring is water, it is something that flows, and it cannot be grasped or held. How can we get that water out? Ordinary containers will definitely not work. If you put the water of the spiritual spring into an ordinary container, it will be ruined."
Ye Qing'an pursed her lips: "If ordinary containers won't work, then containers made from spirit stones from the Cloud Dream Realm will suffice."
"Go find Zhang San."
Ye Qing'an quickly issued the order: "Find Zhang San, get a container made of spirit stones, fill it with the water from the spirit spring and bring it out."
As soon as Ye Qing'an finished speaking, they heard faint roars coming from outside, the sound growing closer and closer...
"They've spotted us. Hurry!"
Jiuxiao hurriedly responded, and soon disappeared from the spot.
Ye Qing'an raised her hand and gently touched the spirit pillar before turning to look at the cave entrance.
The forest-suppressing beast must have sensed the changes in spiritual energy within the cave, which is how it became aware of the intrusion.
The spiritual energy that the forest beast sensed was all from her.
She had to go out and hold off the forest-suppressing beast to buy Jiuxiao enough time.
Thinking to himself, Ye Qing'an quickly stepped out of the cave.
Once outside the cave, Ye Qing'an realized that it was actually underground and would be extremely difficult to spot if one were simply passing by.
Ye Qing'an turned her head and glanced at the cave, unaware that Jiu Xiao had discovered this place in this way.
I need to reward him properly when we get back.
Ye Qing'an leaped up and stood on a treetop in the forest. Soon he saw the forest-suppressing beast leading many magical beasts toward him.
The forest beast had already spotted her, and squinted at Ye Qing'an, saying, "She really is a human female, and she's... quite pretty."
