Slender willows sway in the breeze

Chapter 215 Burned Meridians
"This can't go on like this!"

Liu Sijun gritted her teeth. She suddenly remembered that Li Qing's mutated fire spirit root had a special restraining effect on fire attribute power. Although she did not have that ability, she might be able to use the power of the Taixu Mirror to simulate a similar effect.

She focused her mind and mobilized the power of the Taixu Mirror and the Taixu Nascent Soul, attempting to resonate the star power with the fire-attribute spiritual power within the fire wall.

The Tai Xu Mirror shimmered, and the star map within it spun rapidly, with wisps of star power slowly seeping into the wall of fire.

At the same time, Gu Changzhou was also fighting a bloody battle among the puppets. He had been burned in several places by the flames, but he still did not back down. He kept wielding the Xuan Tie sword in his hand, trying to restrain as many puppets as possible.

Suddenly, Liu Sijun noticed a slight fluctuation at a point where star power and fire-attribute spiritual power intersected within the wall of fire.

Overjoyed, she increased the output of her spiritual power, making the light of the Taixu Mirror even more dazzling.

"It's now!"

Liu Sijun shouted, and a powerful beam of starlight shot out from the Taixu Mirror, striking the weak point of the fire wall.

With a loud "boom," a huge gap appeared in the wall of fire.

"Everyone, charge!"

Liu Sijun shouted.

Gu Changzhou also took the opportunity to break free from the puppet's entanglement and led the Mo Lin Army to rush towards the platform.

However, the puppets naturally wouldn't let them succeed so easily; they all turned around and chased after the group again.

While fending off the puppets' attacks, Liu Sijun and Gu Changzhou approached the "Flaming Sun Wheel".

Finally, Liu Sijun arrived at the platform and reached out her hand, trying to grab the "Blazing Sun Wheel".

Just then, a powerful repulsive force came from the "Sun Wheel," trying to push her away.

Liu Sijun gritted her teeth and mobilized all her spiritual power to resist the repulsive force.

Gu Changzhou stood behind her, doing his best to block the puppet's attacks, while also diverting some of his spiritual power to help Liu Sijun.

With their combined efforts, Liu Sijun finally managed to catch the "Blazing Sun Wheel".

The moment she obtained the "Blazing Sun Wheel," a powerful fire-attribute force surged into Liu Sijun's body. She felt as if all the meridians in her body were burning, causing her unbearable pain.

But she endured the pain and put the "Blazing Sun Wheel" into her bosom.

"Let's go!"

Liu Sijun shouted.

Gu Changzhou nodded and led the Mo Lin Army, fighting as they retreated towards the palace.

The puppets pursued relentlessly, their flames growing ever more intense, their weapons whistling through the air as they attacked the group relentlessly.

The "Blazing Sun Wheel" in Liu Sijun's arms still exuded powerful energy, constantly impacting her meridians.

She endured the excruciating pain, her forehead covered in sweat, her face as pale as paper.

But she knew that she could not back down at this moment. Once they were entangled by these puppets, they might never be able to escape.

"Jun'er, you lead the Mo Lin Army to retreat first, I'll cover the rear!"

Liu Sijun shook her head firmly: "We'll go together. I won't let you risk your life alone!"

Just then, a soldier from the Molin Army was struck by the puppet's flames and fell to the ground.

Liu Sijun's heart tightened, and he immediately turned around. The Taixu Mirror shot out a starlight, which repelled the puppet. Then he quickly helped the soldier up.

"Everyone stay calm, don't panic!"

Gu Changzhou shouted loudly, brandishing his Xuan Tie sword. The power of stars, wind, and thunder surged wildly, repelling the approaching puppets one by one.

The group fought and retreated until they finally arrived at the palace gate.

However, a fiery red barrier suddenly appeared at the palace entrance, blocking their way.

"Damn it, what's going on now?" Gu Changzhou frowned, a hint of anxiety flashing in his eyes.

Looking at the barrier, Liu Sijun endured the pain caused by the "Blazing Sun Wheel" within his body and once again mobilized the power of the Tai Xu Mirror.

She carefully observed the patterns on the barrier, trying to find a way to break through it.

"This barrier seems to work on the same principle as a firewall, and I'm trying to break it using the same method."

Liu Sijun said.

Gu Changzhou nodded. He brandished his Xuan Tie sword, doing his best to defend against the attacks of the puppets behind him, buying time for Liu Sijun.

Liu Sijun concentrated his mind, and the Taixu Mirror shone brightly. The star map in the mirror spun rapidly, and wisps of star power slowly seeped into the barrier.

However, this barrier seemed to be even more solid than the wall of fire, and the star power penetrated very slowly.

As time went on, the power of the "Flaming Sun Wheel" within Liu Sijun's body grew stronger and stronger. Her meridians were burned and riddled with holes, and her consciousness began to become somewhat blurred.

But with her indomitable will, she persevered.

"Jun'er, how are you?"

Seeing Liu Sijun's condition, Gu Changzhou felt a pang of heartache.

Liu Sijun bit her lip and forced a smile: "I'm fine, give me a little more time."

Just then, Liu Sijun finally discovered a weak point in the barrier.

A glint flashed in her eyes as she increased the output of her spiritual power. A powerful beam of starlight shot out from the Taixu Mirror, striking that weak point.

With a loud "boom," a gap appeared in the barrier.

"Come on!"

Liu Sijun shouted.

Gu Changzhou immediately led the Mo Lin Army to escort Liu Sijun out of the palace.

As soon as they stepped out of the palace, the palace doors behind them slammed shut with a bang, trapping the puppets inside.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but Liu Sijun couldn't withstand the power of the "Flaming Sun Wheel" and fainted.

"Jun'er!"

Gu Changzhou quickly caught Liu Sijun, his face full of anxiety.

"My lord, how is Miss Liu?"

"A soldier from the Molin Army asked with concern."

Looking at Liu Sijun's pale face, Gu Changzhou felt a pang of pain in his heart: "Let's leave here first and find a way to treat her as soon as possible."

Gu Changzhou, leading the Mo Lin Army and carrying Liu Sijun, quickly left the far south.

On the way back, Gu Changzhou tried his best to suppress the power of the "Flaming Sun Wheel" for Liu Sijun, but with little success.

When they finally returned to Laiyang County, Master Lu Dan had already received the news and was anxiously waiting at the city gate.

"Quickly, bring Miss Liu in!"

When Master Lu saw Liu Sijun's condition, his expression changed, and he immediately directed everyone to carry Liu Sijun into his alchemy room, which was used for refining pills.

Master Lu quickly closed the door to the alchemy room, had Mo Linjun stand guard outside, and then immediately began to treat Liu Sijun.

His brows furrowed as he looked at Liu Sijun's pained expression, his heart filled with heartache and anxiety.

"My lord, the fire elemental power within Jun'er is far too strong, and it has severely burned her meridians. If it is not suppressed in time, the consequences will be unimaginable."

As Master Lu spoke, he took out various precious medicinal herbs from the medicine cabinet.

Gu Changzhou stood to the side, his eyes filled with worry. He held Liu Sijun's hand tightly, as if that would give her strength.
