Unrivaled Medicine God c1-1444

by Feng Yise 风一色

  Not knowing why, Feng Zhirou had an impulse to cry currently.

  Yet, she knew that she could not waste this chance Ye Yuan risked his life to exchange. Hence, her toes tapped downward, using the momentum to execute the Spiritual Swallow Dance, and headed up the cliff speedily.

  Feng Zhirou forcefully chased away all the thoughts in her head and focused her mind on climbing the cliff!

  To the Feng Zhirou who discarded her distracting thoughts, scaling this thousand feet precipice was not a tough matter.

  Before long, Feng Zhirou saw the top of the cliff. Her toe tapped on the cliff one last time, and her entire person flew up the cliff like a swallow.

  But at this moment, Feng Zhirou did not have the slightest joy from conquering the cliff. She slumped on the ground, her heart feeling like a knife was twisting in.

  Feng Zhirou, it’s all your fault! You caused Ye Yuan to die! Sniff, sniff . . .

  Feng Zhirou sobbed lightly but did not dare to make any sound. She used her hands to cover her mouth as she just convulsed there.

  Tears cascaded down from the corner of her eyes and drifted down the cliff along with the wind.

  Feng Zhirou, the one who should have died was you! Why you are still alive now, but Ye Yuan’s dead?!

  Feng Zhirou, why couldn’t you have been nicer to Ye Yuan normally? He clearly helped you out a lot, but why can’t you swallow your pride to say thanks?

  Ye Yuan, I’m sorry, sorry, sorry . . .

  Feng Zhirou kept on blaming herself in her heart, but she knew that Ye Yuan would never hear it.

  Although Ye Yuan voice transmitted earlier that he would follow right after, Feng Zhirou knew that Ye Yuan definitely only said that to console her.

  Under the impact of her plummeting down the cliff, it was impossible for Ye Yuan to have any chances of survival.

  Even with her Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm strength and high-grade Tier 2 movement technique, it was also impossible to survive under those conditions, much less Ye Yuan who was only still at the Ninth Level Essence Qi Realm.

  Feng Zhirou knew that Ye Yuan’s Instant Flash was already trained to an extremely profound level. But that was still a Tier 1 movement technique after all. How was it possible to negate such a large impact power?

  I’m sorry, Ye Yuan! I won’t die! I’m going to finish your dying wish! I’m going to find the Crimson Soul Grass and other herbs! I’ll return to the State of Qin and request for Lord Wu Daofeng to help Lu-er refine the Essence Yang Pill! If Lord Wu Daofeng can’t refine it, then I’ll go outside to look for even more amazing alchemists. No matter what, I’ll definitely find a way to let Lu-er survive! Feng Zhirou silently swore.

  Finishing, Feng Zhirou forcefully roused her spirit and stood up, preparing to seek out the Crimson Soul Grass.

  Feng Zhirou looked at the pitch black cliff, and her tears started flowing once again uncontrollably.

  Goodbye, Ye Yuan!

  Sayin this in her heart, Feng Zhirou turned around and prepared to leave.

  But right then, Feng Zhirou suddenly heard wind rushing sounds coming from below the cliff. It seemed there was something moving!

  “No way! This . . . How’s this possible? Could it be a hallucination?”

  Feng Zhirou felt that she just heard an indistinct sound. It should be a hallucination because the probability of Ye Yuan surviving was really not great.

  “But if it’s a hallucination, why is the sound getting louder? Could it . . . Could it be . . .”

  Just as Feng Zhirou was completely dazed, a figure darted up from the pitch black cliff!

  Seeing the figure, Feng Zhirou was stunned there as tears burst forth from her eyes.

  “Great! Great! He’s fine! He’s really fine!” Feng Zhirou shouted in her heart.

  “Senior Apprentice Sister, I . . .”

  Ye Yuan only voice transmitted a few words before noticing a light blue mass pouncing on him and hugging him.

  That faint fragrance wafted into his nose, involuntarily shaking up Ye Yuan’s mind.

  “Ye Yuan, you’re really alright. Excellent! It’s really great!” Feng Zhirou transmitted as her tears flowed silently.

  This feeling of holding a beauty in one’s embrace was truly something that all men desired!

  However, this was not the time to be immersed in affection. They had to quickly look for the Crimson Soul Grass.

  Feng Zhirou clearly also noticed her discomposure and hastily released Ye Yuan. She wiped the tears from the corner of her years and said, “You . . . Don’t misunderstood. I just . . . I just thought that you died because of saving me . . . That’s . . . That’s why I was like that.”

  Ye Yuan was stunned and immediately broke into a smile. “What happened just now? Why can’t I remember anything? Senior Apprentice Sister, I’m exhausted. Let’s recuperate for a while and then go find the Crimson Soul Grass.”

  “En . . .”

  Ye Yuan’s condition at the moment was not good. His essence energy was virtually depleted completely.

  If not for the fact the thickness of his essence energy greatly surpassed those of the same rank, most likely, he would have burned out and died.

  The expenditure of the duo was not minor. They each consumed a medicinal pill and adjusted for some time before recovering some strength.

  “Senior Apprentice Sister, there’s no time to lose. Let’s hurry up and look for the Crimson Soul Grass.”

  “En, let’s go.”

  Finishing, the pair descended side by side.

  Along the way, Feng Zhirou was relatively silent, significantly different from usual.

  “Ye Yuan, you . . . How did you come up? I . . . I didn’t mean that . . . I . . . I . . .”

  It was still Feng Zhirou who broke the silence first. She simply could not suppress her curiosity.

  Except that her attitude when asking the question was completely different from usual, rather like a little wife instead.

  Ye Yuan knew that Feng Zhirou was still feeling awkward, so he smiled lightly and said, “I know that Senior Apprentice Sister didn’t mean that. But I’m rather surprised, how come Senior Apprentice Sister fumbled?”

  Feng Zhirou’s face turned red as she said with embarrassment, “Actually, I . . . I thought that you couldn’t keep up, so . . .”

  Ye Yuan only came to a realization after hearing Feng Zhirou say that. So she actually caused such a blunder because she was worried about him.

  Initially, he found it weird too. With Feng Zhirou’s base, it should have been impossible to make such a mistake.

  Ye Yuan felt touched in his heart. His bad impression towards Feng Zhirou in the past also pretty much dissipated.

  “Hur hur, so Senior Apprentice Sister thought I fell down. Senior Apprentice Sister look down on me too much.”

  “T-That’s not my intention. It’s just . . . It’s just . . .”

  “En, why didn’t Senior Apprentice Sister think about it? My Master is so amazing, how could it be possible to not leave behind some impressive movement techniques for me? When I was battling with Lin Tiancheng, I could already sense that Instant Flash was lacking. After breaking through to the Ninth Level Essence Qi Realm, my essence energy is barely enough to cultivate Tier 2 martial arts already. I naturally have to supplement this weak point,” Ye Yuan explained.

  Feng Zhirou was suddenly enlightened. “So, that’s the case! I’ve never seen you use other movement techniques before, hence . . .”

  “En, I understand. Thanks, Senior Apprentice Sister!”

  This thanks came sincerely from Ye Yuan.

  Although Feng Zhirou’s blunder gave Ye Yuan quite a bit of trouble and even nearly cost him his life, it arose from concern towards him.

  In reality, the new movement technique Ye Yuan cultivated was not a Tier 2 movement martial technique. Ye Yuan really did not possess such a low-grade movement martial technique
.

  However, his essence energy was barely enough to reach the level to cultivate Tier 2 martial techniques. Ye Yuan naturally had to compensate for his lacking movement technique.

  The name of the movement technique he cultivated was called Spirit Void Shattering Space. This movement technique did not have a specific tier, because it could be cultivated continuously in later realms.

  At the Spirit Condensation Realm, one could cultivate the first level of the Spirit Void Shattering Space. The thickness of Ye Yuan’s essence energy was already not beneath half-step Spirit Condensation Realm, although barely enough to reach this threshold.

  Although the skill that Ye Yuan selected so prudently was only at the first level, its might was extremely formidable.

  Even though it was just Entry stage, it was no problem for Ye Yuan to keep up with Feng Zhirou.

  As a matter of fact, Ye Yuan had been maintaining the same pace as Feng Zhirou just now; not too fast nor too slow. Hence, Feng Zhirou could not detect his presence.

  Except, Ye Yuan did not expect Feng Zhirou to actually misunderstand because of this and nearly slipped up and fell down the cliff.

  . . . . . .

  The pair avoided that cave from far away and searched for traces of the Crimson Soul Grass from top to bottom.

  Due to the fact that the range of sight was very limited at night, the pair searched very meticulously. But after searching for a long time, they still did not find a trace of the Crimson Soul Grass.

  The two spent close to two hours and virtually searched through the entire hill, but they still did not find the Crimson Soul Grass.

  “Ye Yuan, do you think the Crimson Soul Grass is . . .” Feng Zhirou transmitted her voice as she looked towards that cave.

  Presently, only the area where the cave was located had not been searched. If this hilltop had Crimson Soul Grasses, it could only be there.

  And currently, dawn was about to break. If they still could not find the Crimson Soul Grass, the two would be in danger.

  Ye Yuan sighed and said, “80% chance it’s in that region. Looks like we still have to go over there eventually! Wait for me here, Senior Apprentice Sister. I’ll be back soon.”

  How could Feng Zhirou comply? She stubbornly said, “No way! If you want to go, we’ll go together! I promised aunty to protect you. How can I let you take the risk alone?”

  Ye Yuan could not persuade her, so he could only say, “Fine then. But once there’s any situation, immediately run!”

  Feng Zhirou nodded and slowly combed their way over to the cave’s vicinity.

  As the pair gradually got closer to the cave, they felt a powerful aura undulating from inside the cave.

  “Quickly look, Ye Yuan! Isn’t that the Crimson Soul Grass?” Feng Zhirou suddenly discovered something and hurriedly pulled Ye Yuan as she transmitted.

  Ye Yuan looked over to where Feng Zhirou was pointing at, and as expected, he saw several stalks of crimson-colored, serrated edged tiny grass. If that was not Crimson Soul Grass, that what was?

  After going through many hardships and finding the Crimson Soul Grass, even Ye Yuan with his Heart Like Still Water was quite excited right now.

  Even though he prepared so many items painstakingly for the Crimson Summit Ridge, he also undertook extremely huge risk.

  No matter how powerful Ye Yuan was, he was merely but an Essence Qi Realm martial artist. There was naturally no need to mention the risks he braved when facing pairs of Tier 2 demonic beasts and even Tier 3 demonic beasts.

  Ye Yuan sucked in a deep breath and said to Feng Zhirou, “I’ll go and retrieved those stalks of Crimson Soul Grass. After I’m done, we’ll leave this place at maximum speed!”

  Finishing, Ye Yuan fully executed his first level Spirit Void Shattering Space, turning into an afterimage flickering towards the Crimson Soul Grass.

  “Howl! Howl!”

  Just then, several ape cries sounded. Ye Yuan’s and Feng Zhirou’s complexion changed drastically at the same time!

  Chapter 136

  Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

  Following several ape howls, a feeling of extreme danger surged up in Ye Yuan’s heart!

  This feeling of danger made Ye Yuan’s scalp tingled.

  He knew that if he were to take another step forward, he would definitely invoke a calamity!

  The next instant, Ye Yuan explosively retreated even faster than when he came!

  “Go, Senior Apprentice Sister!”

  Ye Yuan chose to retreat without any hesitation. That was a Tier 3 demonic beast. It could eradicate the two of them with just a single strike.

  Feng Zhirou evidently also sensed that something was not right. Without waiting for Ye Yuan’s warning, she displayed her Spirit Swallow Dance and rushed down the mountain with astonishing speed.

  Feng Zhirou and Ye Yuan, one in front and the other behind, sprinted down the mountain frenziedly. Nevertheless, this process only lasted several breaths of time before the two figures stopped abruptly.

  “Careful, Senior Apprentice Sister!” Ye Yuan yelled out anxiously.

  Virtually the same instant Ye Yuan yelled, a white figure taller than a person shot out from diagonally, and actually reached first even though it moved later, and caught up to Feng Zhirou in a flash!

  Facing this aura which was powerful to the extreme, Feng Zhirou’s complexion turned pale. How could she be bothered to resist? She instantly retreated explosively.

  However, when compared to that white figure, Feng Zhirou’s speed was too slow!

  In a blur, Feng Zhirou saw a colossal ape paw slapping down towards herself!

  “Ahh!”

  Panicking, Feng Zhirou raised her hand to randomly strike with her sword and then shut her eyes in fright.

  This Tier 3 demonic beast was too strong. It was simply not what she could stand up to.

  It’s over! This was Feng Zhirou’s final thought.

  Swoosh!

  Nine streaks of sword beams brushed past Feng Zhirou and attacked from the sides. They converged from different locations and attacked the lower abdomen of that Long-arm Stone Ape!

  Ye Yuan unleased the Nine Swords Stance straight away!

  It was different from the previous time’s disorderly attack. This time, the nine streaks of sword beams finally converged together. Ye Yuan’s control over the sword beams once again advanced to another level!

  This was also Ye Yuan’s supernormal performance in a moment of desperation. If he really unleashed the sword another time, he might not be able to do it.

  The nine afterimages of the Nine Swords Stance were not phantoms, but corporeal bodies!

  This first stance of the Azure Dipper Floating Zero Sword Art was Ye Yuan gathering the forces of the two types of sword intent and evolved further from the Falling Flower Floating Zero Sword’s extreme speed movements!

  Every single attack was released personally by him!

  Except, that instantaneous speed was too swift, so it looked as if it was released from nine different locations.

  Nine swords merged into one. The attack power would naturally be incomparably formidable! But, this should be insufficient to injure the Tier 3 Ape King.

  However, that Ape King actually chose to evade the sword beams!

  With a swoosh, after the nine streaks of sword beams merged, it followed the original path it flew over from and vanished by fading into the world.

  It took time to describe, but all of these actually just happened in a flash.

  From Ye Yuan’s explosive retreat to the duo’s frenzied flight, and to the Ape King attacking Feng Zhirou, and then to Ye Yuan rescuing Feng Zhirou by besieging the Ape King, it was all but a few short breaths of time.

  At this time, that Ape King stood several dozen feet away from Feng Zhirou. Ye Yuan similarly stood several dozen feet away from Feng Zhirou, while Feng Zhirou had her eyes shut waiting for the Ape King’s paw to strike down.

  The two humans and one beast ac
tually entered a stalemate!

  “W-what happened? Y-Ye Yuan, did you save me?” Feng Zhirou recovered from her surprise and stared at Ye Yuan as she asked hesitantly.

  Ye Yuan did not bother with her and kept staring at the Ape King in the distance.

  Tier 3 Ape King was too terrifying. It could virtually instant-kill the two of them. Just now, Ye Yuan could save Feng Zhirou because of special conditions which allowed him to complete an impossible task.

  The Ape King felt that Feng Zhirou’s strength was slightly stronger and had more threat, so it chose to do a surprise attack on her right away.

  And Ye Yuan happened to be some distance away from Feng Zhirou. The Ape King could not possibly attack the two of them at the same time, which gave Ye Yuan the opportunity to launch an attack unhurriedly.

  The reason why the Ape King chose to keep a distance was because the place Ye Yuan attacked was precisely the weak point of the Long-arm Stone Apes! Ye Yuan’s attack this time was accurate to the extreme.

  If the Ape King forcefully took this stance head-on, it would probably already be heavily injured right now.

  Otherwise, with Ye Yuan’s cultivation, no matter how strong the attack was, it would be impossible to cause major injuries to the Ape King.

  But in reality, if the Ape King attacked at the risk of getting injured, Feng Zhirou would already be an ice-cold corpse now.

  As for why Ye Yuan’s surprise attack worked, it was because the Ape King overly underestimated the two of them. That led to it revealing its weak point.

  If the Ape King attacked once more, Ye Yuan and Feng Zhirou would die without question!

  Hence, Ye Yuan did not dare to let down his guard this whole time and firmly locked his attention onto the Ape King.

  That Ape King clearly also did not think that a puny little Essence Qi Realm martial artist would actually be even more threatening than that Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm woman!

  After one attack, the Ape King spontaneously sized up Ye Yuan.

  The ape stared at Ye Yuan without showing any signs of its emotion.

  Seeing Ye Yuan ignore her, Feng Zhirou also did not dare to act rashly at this time. She was stuck between the two of them feeling completely awkward.
