Tumor Sword Immortal

Chapter 418 Ultimate Child Labor
Feng Yao was initially standing inside the room.

I saw Pei Xia wake up once halfway through, so I thought he was done.

He touched a pill and then closed his eyes again.

Feng Yao stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping around the room. He noticed a small pebble on the ground, probably left behind by the White Ghosts when they passed through.

She kicked the pebble away.

Then, having nothing else to do, he sat on the windowsill and continued to stare at Pei Xia.

The light in the room attracted a small moth.

They fluttered past the window.

Then Feng Yao bit him.

When Pei Xia opened her eyes again, she saw her sitting on the windowsill, making smacking noises as she ate something.

"What?"

"……Play?"

Pei Xia smiled; she even knew how to have fun.

Sitting on the bed, he took out the bottle of pills that Han Youzhi had given him from Yuqiong.

This isn't a typical medicine bottle design; it looks like it was temporarily put there to hold something.

When Pei Xia opened it, she found that this time it wasn't filled with twelve, or even the usual six, but only five.

Although it wasn't enough for a whole bottle, Han Youzhi still brought it to Pei Xia.

"It's all been done by Heaven, and it's all become like this... sigh."

Feng Yao couldn't understand the meaning behind Pei Xia's words. She only saw her master saying strange things, yet she couldn't help but smile.

……

She hadn't noticed it when she was in the Jade Palace, but when Han Youzhi opened her eyes again and returned to the cave in the Valley of the Whale Gate, she realized that her cheeks were burning hot.

I washed myself with a basin of water nearby, and then I felt a little better.

He took a deep breath and stepped out of the quiet room in the cave.

She should have been resting at this time.

But when he looked up, he saw that the light in Lu Li's room was still on.

With the help of his divine sense, he easily discovered that Lu Li had not yet fallen asleep.

This girl always talks about needing to grow taller and rarely stays up late.

She walked to the door and tapped lightly with her finger: "Pear?"

"Huh?" Lu Li's voice came from inside the house.

"I'm coming in." Han Youzhi reached out and pushed open the door.

Lu Li was lying on the ground with her butt sticking out, holding a magic pen in her hand. She looked up at her with some dissatisfaction: "Shouldn't you have asked for my permission before coming in?"

The ground was covered with talismans.

She actually stayed up all night drawing talismans?

"What are you doing?" Han Youzhi asked, puzzled.

Pear sat back on the ground, looking annoyed, and said, "Preparing for going to Qin Prefecture!"

Han Youzhi looked at her in surprise: "How did you know I was planning to go to Qinzhou?"

"No need to know."

Lu Li put down her pen and began tidying up her talismans one by one: "Whether you go or not is none of my business, I'm going anyway."

Han Youzhi was speechless at first, then smiled knowingly.

Indeed, Li Zi and Pei Xia's feelings will only deepen. Pei Xia has lost contact twice, and even Li Zi herself is preparing to go to Qinzhou. It is impossible for Li Zi to remain indifferent.

"You're just a lowly cultivator without a spiritual abode. If you enter Qinzhou, won't you be at the mercy of others?"

"That's why I'm drawing talismans here!"

Lu Li gathered up a stack of talismans and patted them in her palm: "I'm going to draw a thousand of them to blow those bastards to bits." With a thousand fire-shocking talismans, as long as she didn't run into a true expert, she could indeed walk sideways.

"How many have you drawn?"

"Hmm..." She counted for a moment, then answered seriously, "Twelve!"

"You're going to Qinzhou to offer incense to him, aren't you?"

You'll be drawing a thousand sheets by next year.

“Okay,” Han Youzhi sat down on the edge of Lu Li’s small bed and patted the spot next to her: “Come on.”

Lu Li walked over, glanced at her sideways, and although she sat down honestly, she still said with disdain, "Old Han, do you know you smell really like a mother now?"

Han Youzhi ignored her and took out the Glazed Immortal Elixir and the Pure Blood of Returning to Emptiness given to her by Pei Xia from the Jade Orb.

Pear was stunned for a moment: "Holy crap, Pei Xia even left this for you... wait a minute!"

She looked up at Han Youzhi with surprise and delight: "You got in touch?"

Old Han brushed a strand of hair from her temple and said with a smile, "Yes, he now has a sect in Qinzhou called Jiangcheng Mountain. He needs a lot of help, so he gave me these two items."

She repeated to Pear what Pei Xia had said to her in the Jade Palace.

"He said you have a way to help him draw the array?" Han Youzhi looked at the array brush in Lu Li's hand.

Pear rolled her eyes: "Yes, it does."

Actually, it's quite simple. When Pear first broke through to the sixth realm, because her realm wasn't stable enough, she couldn't fully set up many time-consuming and laborious formations.

So Lu Li came up with a solution – to use a combination of formations.

It involves using talismans to scatter the various parts of an array. These talismans are useless when scattered, but if they are arranged and activated in the correct way, they can be combined into a usable array.

She had used this method when she was in Aocheng, taking advantage of the encirclement outside Han Youzhi's guest room to send all the people on the He family's large ship who were in danger back home.

Han Youzhi frowned: "But that kind of scattered formation isn't effective enough..."

Yes, so Pear could only teleport one person at a time, and the distance was only the sea outside Ao City, to send them back to the He family's residence.

“So,” Lu Li’s gaze fell on the half-eaten Guixu pure blood in Han Youzhi’s hand, “he brought this over.”

There are many types of ink available for drawing arrays, including talismans.

For example, the juice of spiritual herbs, ink ground from stone marrow, and spring water from spiritual springs all possess unique and miraculous properties.

But the most common blood is that of monsters.

After all, inner cores and spirit crystals are scarce items, and there will always be people who want to hunt monsters.

Cultivators face many challenges in battle, and since they have already killed the creatures, they should make the most of everything. Besides the inner cauldron and spirit crystals, the hides, bones, and flesh of the demonic beasts also have their uses.

The remaining blood should not be wasted; it is sold in various markets.

Demon blood can be considered a spiritual object, so naturally, the better the quality, the stronger the effect of the array.

Then, may I ask, what level is the Pure Blood of Returning to Emptiness?
To put it simply, you have to dilute the protective array of the sect.

Pei Xia's meaning was clear: the effectiveness lost in the formation could be made up for by the materials. With the power of the Guixu pure blood, the overall effect of the formation would only be stronger.

Pear took the blood bead from Han Youzhi's hand, her little face full of bitterness: "This thing isn't so easy to use."

The power contained within the pure blood of Guixu far surpasses that of ordinary creatures. To gather and condense it at the tip of the array brush for intricate array drawing naturally requires extremely high skill from the master.

With her cultivation level, making a talisman using pure blood, even with slight dilution, would be an enormous challenge.

Han Youzhi rubbed the child's head, afraid that she wasn't sad enough, and added, "You keep drawing. By the time you're done, I estimate that the spiritual plants will be almost ripe. Then you can refine them into pills for him."

Pear looked at the whole bottle of Glazed Immortal Elixir in Han Youzhi's hand and her face turned green.

Are you buying in bulk?

If boxes and boxes of spiritual plants are piled up in my cave, how am I supposed to refine them?
"...Or should I draw a thousand Fire-Shocking Talismans and go to Qinzhou to find him?"

"Be good, don't make trouble."

"No!!!"
