After returning to the village, start chasing the mountain from binding Emei

Chapter 1003 Healing the Eyes of the Bashe, a Gift from the Bashe!
The tightly closed eye in the middle of his forehead slowly opened, and a huge eyeball that had shrunk somewhat appeared in front of Chen Yang.

The lens is cloudy, the iris is shattered, and the pupil is nowhere to be found.

Bashe said, "This eye of mine originally possessed many innate supernatural powers, such as immobilization, dispelling illusions, amplifying the destructive power of the primordial spirit and mental energy, and so on. There was also a small universe inside, but after the eye was destroyed, all these supernatural powers could no longer be used. Only the universe inside can still be used..."

As Chen Yang listened to Bashe describe its symptoms, he examined its eyes.

The eye of the Bashe is indeed extraordinary.

The destruction of this eye will likely weaken the power of the Bashe.

"It's all my fault for being careless. When I encountered those two, neither of them had yet entered the Dao True Realm. Who would have thought they would be carrying such a powerful treasure, and that they would be so ruthless in their attacks..."

As he spoke, Bashe became somewhat angry.

Just thinking about it makes me angry.

"So, have you figured out what the problem is? Can it be treated?"

Although he didn't have high hopes, Bashe still had a vague expectation in his heart.

Especially seeing Chen Yang's serious expression.

Perhaps this little guy really does have some way to cure his eyes?

Chen Yang withdrew his primordial spirit, his expression grave. "Logically speaking, if it were just a common stab wound, Senior, your strength should allow it to heal on its own. It seems that your eye isn't unable to heal, but rather that there's a force preventing its recovery..."

"Well, that's true."

Bashe agreed with Chen Yang's statement, "When that nail pierced my eye, I immediately tried to remove it, but the nail dissolved upon entering my eye, turning into a ray of light and disappearing without a trace. Afterwards, no matter how much I rested and received treatment, it had no effect. I could feel that there was a force preventing my eye from recovering, but this force was invisible and traceless, and I had no way to deal with it..."

"Even now, whenever I channel my inner energy into this eye, I feel an intense, stinging pain instantly..."

……

"So, the nail is still in the senior's sight?"

Listening to Bashe's story, Chen Yang opened his third eye, wanting to try to find the existence of this power.

But it was all in vain; this energy was deeply hidden.

Bashe nodded slightly. "That should be true."

Chen Yang said, "In that case, find it, force it out, and there should still be a possibility of healing this eye of yours, senior."

"Can you find him?" Bashe asked.

"You can try it."

Chen Yang wasn't going to give a guarantee, but he still had some ideas. "This thing is very well hidden. I just used my Heavenly Eye to look at it and my primordial spirit to probe it, but I couldn't find any trace of it..."

"I'm afraid it will be a bit painful for you, senior. Try injecting your true essence into this eye to see if you can unleash this energy. You'll have to endure the pain..."

……

After listening, Bashe considered it for a moment and perhaps thought Chen Yang's suggestion was feasible. He immediately nodded and said, "Then you have to hurry, it hurts too much for me to bear."

"it is good."

Chen Yang was both amused and exasperated. How much pain must it have caused?
Bashe blinked first, and after getting ready, began to inject energy into its eyes.

"hiss……"

In an instant, Chen Yang saw a red light flash in the eyes of the Bashe snake, which suddenly turned blood red.

At the same time, the Bashe seemed to be enduring immense pain, its whole body trembling violently, its mental energy trembling, and tears streaming down its face.

While Chen Yang was using his primordial spirit to investigate, he was also using his Heavenly Eye to look around, afraid of missing any corner.

In his blood-red eyes, a black, wisp of energy suddenly appeared, like a fish rising from murky river water, disappearing in an instant.

Is it it?
Just as Chen Yang was about to capture its form, the Bashe couldn't help but close its eyes.

"It hurts..."

Bashe tightly closed the eye in the middle of his forehead, tears streaming down his face. "Well, did you notice?"

"It seems they saw it."

Chen Yang expressed his helplessness, "However, senior, you need to give me time to confirm. In such a short time, even if I find it, I don't have time to force it out..."

"call!"

The serpent exhaled, "I couldn't help it. I wanted to hold on longer, but the pain was just too much. It was my body's instinct, something I couldn't control..."

Mo Yuan stood to the side, deeply understanding.

This feeling is probably similar to being struck by a death curse; the pain is excruciating, and no matter how strong your willpower is, you can't endure it just by trying.

This put Chen Yang in a difficult position.

Under normal circumstances, the snake could be made to shut down its five senses and six consciousnesses, causing it to faint, and then Chen Yang could examine and treat it.

However, in this situation, the cooperation of the Bashe is required. It is not realistic to shut down the five senses and six consciousnesses; it must be done while the Bashe is awake.

But the snake couldn't bear the pain, and there wasn't enough time for him to deal with it; there was no way to fix it.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Yang took out a box of medicine from the system's inventory.

Painkillers.

Gu Lingshan gave him the Gu family's secret medicine, a super-powerful painkiller.

To deal with the aftereffects of the Qi Ling San, Chen Yang specifically sought out Gu Ling Shan for a secret medicine.

Bashe's gaze fell on the medicine in Chen Yang's hand.

Chen Yang said, "This medicine has powerful analgesic properties. It can block out pain receptors, so you won't feel any pain for several days after taking it. I've tried it, and it's very effective. But with your large physique, I wonder how much of the medicine will be effective..."

He told the snake about the origin of the medicine, and it was up to the snake whether or not to take it.

Bashe said, "Give it to me and try it out first."

Without saying a word, Chen Yang took out one and threw it into the giant mouth of the Bashe.

Compared to the enormous size of the Bashe snake, this pill is indeed too small, and the medicinal power of one pill may not be enough to relieve its pain.

However, Chen Yang didn't dare to give too much, not because he was stingy, but because he was afraid that eating too much would have side effects.

"You could try directing the medication towards the area around the eyes to enhance the local analgesic effect," Chen Yang suggested.

"Ah."

Bashe responded and waited quietly for the medicine to take effect.

At this moment, Chen Yang was using his primordial spirit to examine the acupoints on the head of the Bashe snake, in order to facilitate the insertion of needles later.

Different organisms have different acupoints, but once you understand one, you can understand all others. As long as you understand the principle, you can understand the same principle no matter what.

"bring it on!"

After a while, Bashe felt the medicine taking effect. He tried it himself and found that the pain in his bad eye had indeed lessened a lot.

The medicine is truly effective; the doctor is afraid that if it is left untreated for too long, its effectiveness will diminish.

Chen Yang figured out the acupoints on the head of the snake, roughly went through them in his mind, and then took out the silver needles, ready to start the procedure.

With Mo Yuan standing guard nearby, Chen Yang explained some precautions to Bashe and immediately resumed the treatment.

Bashe opened its evil eye between its eyebrows once more.

The divine energy immediately poured in, and his eyes instantly turned blood red.

Chen Yang used two wooden sticks to prop up the snake's eyelids to prevent it from suddenly closing its eyes.

This time, the snake didn't cry out in pain.

Under the influence of the medication, the pain almost completely disappeared.

Chen Yang carefully examined the giant red eyeball of the Bashe.

Soon, the black light reappeared in his eyes, but then quickly disappeared.

It's like an incredibly lively fish, impossible to catch.

Chen Yang picked up the silver needles and used the Yin-Yang Needling Technique to quickly seal several acupoints around the eyes of the Bashe snake. His true essence was transformed into Yin and Yang energies and poured into the silver needles.

The black light seemed to have been stimulated, flashing more and more frequently, and would occasionally float on the surface of the eyeball.

Chen Yang was almost certain that this was the thing causing the problem.

Holding a silver needle, it was completely focused, quietly waiting for the right moment.

"Shh!"

When the black light reappeared, Chen Yang reacted quickly, plunging the silver needle into the hole.

That's ruthless; they went straight for the eyeball.

The silver needle pierced the eyeball and struck the black light directly.

There was a clang.

As if it had struck something hard, the black light did not yield and struggled as if it were alive.

Chen Yang quickly inserted several more needles to surround the black light, and the yin and yang energies formed a cage to seal the black light.

It's like using a landing net to catch a fish that has escaped from the river.

Black Light naturally refused to be bound and wanted to break free of its cage.

After that, Chen Yang suddenly pulled out the silver needle that was stuck in Hei Mang's body.

As if finding a way out, the black light suddenly shot out following the silver needle.

"Shh!"

The black light was incredibly fast, heading straight for Chen Yang's face. Fortunately, Chen Yang was prepared and quickly dodged to the side, the black light grazing his face as it flew away.

"Keng!"

The black light struck the mountain wall behind Chen Yang and instantly fell silent.

Chen Yang ignored him and instead put away the silver needles on the snake.

The holes made by the silver needles are very small. Even if they are stuck in the eyeball, they are not considered serious injuries. With the strength of the Bashe, healing is very simple.

After observing for a while and confirming that there were no other abnormalities, Chen Yang removed the stick that was supporting the snake's eyelids.

"Alright, senior, how are you feeling?" Chen Yang asked.

"Is this good?"

Bashe closed its bad eyes. Although it didn't feel much pain due to the medication, tears still flowed uncontrollably.

"Ah."

Chen Yang turned and walked towards the stone wall behind him, where he saw a black nail deeply embedded in the stone.

Take it out; it feels cold to the touch.

The nail was completely black and less than two inches long.

Its head is very pointed and gleams with a light that makes people feel uneasy at first glance, as if a chilling aura is creeping into their bones.

Although it was a physical object, Chen Yang could clearly feel it dissipating, like a piece of ice turning into steam and sublimating.

Show it to the Bashe.

Bashe grinned, for it was this very thing that had caused his eyes to never recover, tormenting him for so many years.

“This nail is dangerous. Be extra careful when you run into Tian Bonong in the future,” Bashe said.

In just a moment, the black nail had completely vaporized and disappeared.

Chen Yang said, "Now that the nail has been removed, your eyes should recover with some time to be nurtured. I will refine another batch of [Bright Eye Pills] in a while, which should help with the recovery of your eyes."

He has now achieved some success in alchemy, possessing quite a few alchemical books and formulas. Among them, there is a type of elixir in the Medicine King's alchemy that has a great effect on nourishing the eyes.

Fortunately, he also had all the medicinal herbs.

During this time, Chen Yang found quite a few rare medicinal herbs in this secret realm.

For him, refining this kind of elixir was not difficult.

"Kindness without saying thanks!"

Bashe didn't say anything more. "Once my eyes have healed, if you haven't left the secret realm by then, bring me that thing you mentioned, and I'll help you deal with the things inside!"

Chen Yang nodded slightly.

The Eye of the Bashe might actually be able to eliminate the stone elephant's primordial spirit hidden in the round mirror, but Chen Yang didn't have much hope.

Even with the help of the pills he concocted, it wouldn't be possible for Bashe's eye to recover in just a day or two.

He only has seven or eight days left to stay, and it's probably too late.

……

Because of this delay, Chen Yang was not in a hurry to go down the mountain. He wanted to see the rescue through to the end and come to Ye's house in the maze together.

In the courtyard, Chen Yang took out the Qiankun Qi Furnace, arranged the medicinal herbs, and skillfully began refining pills.

Bashe watched from the side, utterly surprised.

This kid can actually refine pills, and judging from his technique, he's clearly a seasoned expert who's been immersed in the art of alchemy for many years.

It's so young, yet its cultivation is already so high. Moreover, it was able to break through the maze that had troubled it for many years, proving that it also has some knowledge of formations. And now it's refining pills...

How can someone so young have so much time and energy to learn so many miscellaneous things?
Are young people these days really this amazing?

……

More than an hour later, Dan was completed.

Chen Yang refined three batches of Eye Brightening Pills. Except for the first batch, which was made by a novice and produced five low-grade pills, the quality of the second and third batches was significantly improved, with all ten pills being mid-grade.

High-quality pills are difficult to refine, and achieving even a medium-quality one is already quite an achievement.

That's enough for the case of the Bashe (a type of snake).

The eye-brightening pill only helps it recover; it still needs to put in the effort to heal its own eyes.

All fifteen pills were given to the Bashe.

Bashe said, "You've done me a great favor, and I don't have anything good to offer in return. Here are some little gadgets I've tinkered with in my spare time. Use them if you find them useful, or keep them as souvenirs if you don't..."

A bag appeared from the top of the snake's head and floated towards Chen Yang.

Chen Yang took it, opened the cloth bag, and saw that it contained bright red beads.

The beads are about the size of ping-pong balls, and there are eight of them in total.

Divine Fiend Pearl?
Chen Yang was slightly taken aback, not expecting it to be this.

The system had rewarded him with beads condensed from divine and evil energy. He had also given two to the water monkey. However, the divine and evil beads rewarded by the system were not as big as those given by the Bashe, nor did they contain as much energy essence.

"Senior, isn't this too precious?"

Chen Yang looked up at the Bashe. Condensing the Divine Fiend Pearl was no easy task; he didn't know how much time or cultivation it would take.

Bashe shook his head. "I just condensed it myself when I had nothing better to do. It was made from top-grade jade from Dong'e Mountain, and it contains a lot of energy. If you run out of energy in your Mountain Lord Seal, you can try using this bead to recharge it..."

"I dare not refuse such a gift from an elder. Since you have already given it to me, I will not refuse. Thank you for the treasure!"

Chen Yang didn't hesitate and took it as he was given it.

He immediately put away all the Divine Fiend Beads. Although he couldn't absorb the Divine Fiend energy, didn't he have a Longevity Stone that could neutralize evil spirits?

That longevity stone can transform divine and evil energy into stone pills. He can't absorb divine and evil energy, but he can take stone pills; it's just an extra step.

……

After refining the elixir for the Bashe, it got dark. Chen Yang didn't linger and went down the mountain from the east side of Dong'e Mountain.

Outside Dong'e Mountain.

Time is precious, and he has many things to do. He needs to find a place first to help the water monkey overcome its heavenly tribulation.

Since he was confident that he could break through to the Dao True Realm within this secret realm and wouldn't be unable to leave, Chen Yang decided to let fate decide. If he could break through within this secret realm, then he would.

However, before that, let the water monkey set an example and see if the tribulation in this secret realm is any different from the one outside.

Once the water monkey has completed its tribulation, some of the free-floating lightning energy in the world will have been depleted. If I were to undergo my own tribulation at this time, the power of the lightning tribulation would inevitably be significantly reduced.

Anyway, letting the water monkey suffer and get tired will lighten my burden a bit.

Before leaving Dong'e Mountain, Bashe pointed out a location to Chen Yang.

Forty miles southeast of Dong'e Mountain, there is a valley with a pool in the middle, which is a very good place to undergo tribulation.

Chen Yang followed the trail.

It was already past nine o'clock at night. The valley was not large, and it was a mixed forest with abundant water energy and lush vegetation.

After passing through the mixed woods, a pool of water, about forty or fifty meters wide, came into view.

Several streams flow down from the surrounding cliffs and into the pool.

The chirping of insects was barely audible, and the occasional cooing of a bird, along with the sound of flowing water, created an unusually quiet atmosphere.

There is a wide-open meadow beside the pool.

Chen Yang stood on the grass, his mental energy covering the entire valley as he surveyed the terrain.

This place is indeed exceptionally blessed; it would be perfect for undergoing tribulation.

When the lightning strikes, some of it should be drawn away by the surrounding towering cliffs. If the lightning is too strong, one can hide at the bottom of the pool and use the water veins to withstand the lightning.

"What do you think of this place?" Chen Yang was quite satisfied, but he didn't know if the water monkey was satisfied.

The water monkey looked around and nodded at Chen Yang.

It is inherently water-based, and the valley is rich in water vein energy, so it does feel very comfortable.

"Then let's get started!"

Chen Yang didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.

He opened the upgrade gift pack from the system reward and selected the Tribulation Transformation Pill.

Three high-grade Tribulation Transformation Pills appeared in Chen Yang's hand.

Chen Yang took out one and handed it to the water monkey, "This is a Tribulation Transformation Pill. It can increase your body's affinity for lightning attribute energy. Take it before you undergo tribulation!"

Of the three high-grade Transformation Pills, one was given to the Water Monkey, one was kept for myself, and the last one was saved for future use.

Mo Yuan watched from the side, his eyes lighting up.

There are such pills?

Chen Yang is truly unexpected; he actually possesses something like this—the Tribulation Transformation Pill, which enhances one's affinity for lightning-attribute energy. It's unheard of.

Upon hearing this, the water monkey took the pill from Chen Yang's hand, threw it directly into its mouth, tilted its head back, and swallowed it.

"You trust me that much? Aren't you afraid I'll betray you?"

Chen Yang smiled. This water monkey seemed to have no guile at all. If he gave it a Mind-Dispelling Pill, wouldn't it be dead?
