"Here." Lin cheng threw their storage ring full of fire qi stones back to Song xiyue. He didn't even look at it.
"Thank you senior Lin cheng." Spoke Song Xiyue with a grateful expression.
Mei Yu , pang san and ba mou also thank Lin cheng. They felt grateful from the bottom of their heart.
"Can i ask you a question?" Ask Lin cheng.
"Yes senior Lin cheng." Responded Song xiyue
Making them stunned but their quickly responded.
"How old are you guys?." Ask Lin cheng.
The girls were a little embarrased by the question but the boy didn't care. And after seeing the serious look on him.
"I'm 4,178 years old." Said Pan san
"I'm 2,548 years old." Said Bamou
"I'm 3,013 years old." Said Mei Yu with a red face.
"I'm 1,810 years old." Spoke Song Xiyue calmly but her neck was red.
"I hear this fire realm has restriction age, could you please tell me how you guys got in here." Ask Lin cheng.
Making Son xiyue, Mei Yu , Pang San and Ba mou realized why he was asking about their age. They hesitated buy at the decided to tell Lin cheng.
"Senior Lin cheng our sect by miracle we found if consume certain Spirit grass, we can evade the restriction age but it was costly." Spoke Mei Yu.
"By the way senior Lin cheng there's also a downside. Because this realm no only restricted the age but also the cultivation base. So before entering you can't be on the Void King Realm." Added Pang san.
Hearing this Lin cheng was surprise and he kind of guess how Xu Yi got in here.
"By the way do you guys know the name name of the spirit grass?" Ask Lin cheng.
They hesitated after all that's a secret from the sect.
Seeing then hesitated Lin cheng decided to threw something tempting.
"If you can tell me I'll give you all of the things on this storage rings. Except for the fire qi stones." Spoke Lin cheng waving the 10 storage rings.
Perhaps for them that was a huge wealth so they were tempted and at the end submit. And at the same time they were scare Lin cheng might attack them.
"It's actually Holy Spirit grass that is use for Nirvana pills, call nine morning grass. It can only grow on the top of the Central continet making it expensive." Spoke Song xiyue. At the end Lin cheng did save their life so it was no big deal to say it. And she didn't want the elders efforts to be wasted.
Hearing the name a information appeared in mind that in order for such spirit grass to grow it need 9 mornings to sprout. In other words it took 9 times the time to grow than most normal spirit grass.
"Thank you there you go." Said Lin cheng throwing the 10 storage ring to Sing Xiyue.
"Alright stay there don't move ill be right back." Said Lin cheng before entering to the hole they came from.
The 4 people hesitated but at the end decided to wait.
15mins later...
Lin cheng came back.
"Here this take this before i leave I'll protect you." Spoke Lin cheng throwing a 4 shiny golden pills towards them.
Each one of the got a pill and they could feel the powerfull aura and it actually had veins pills.
"This..." They look at the pills on their hand and were perplex.
"I'm an alchemist so hurry take it it should be able to pass the bottleneck you have. Plus once i'm gone there's no guarantee those guys won't comeback hurry." Spoke Lin cheng impatient.
"Oh." They felt grateful and hurriedly swallow the pills.
10 mins later....
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The four them made a breakthrough successfully passing their bottlenecks.
Mei Yu, Pang san and Ba Mou reach the late stage of the Empyrean Realm they felt excited.
But the most excited was Song Xiyue who breakthrough the Void King Realm.
"Well i'm leaving." Seeing they situation Lin cheng prepare to leave.
"Wait! How about you take the ring there a lots of Fire qi stones." Spoke Song xiyue.
"Nah I'm good those are yours plus i'm and alchemist i didn't came here for this." Spoke Lin cheng before dissapearing.
"With one pill I was able to breakthrough a bottleneck that hunt me down for a whole thousands year. Alchemist are really rare."
Spoke Mei Yu with sparkle in her eyes.
Whole Pang san and ba Mou were also shock.
Mean while Sing xiyue look at the rings she tought he needed the Fire Qi stones because he took the one from other rings. But he seem modest.
1 hours later.....
Lin cheng enter the Lava lake cave and Xu Yi appeard.
"Little friend your back!" Said Xu Yi excitedly.
Knowing his freedom was so close he couldn't help but break his calm state.
"Old ghost let's go is time to freed you from this place." Said Lin cheng with a smile and exuding his cultivation base.
Xu yi was able to that the fluctuations from Lin cheng were from a Void King Realm.
Lin cheng start to walk towards the deeper side of cave on his way to the natural formation.
"Little friend cheng did you guess what i ask you." Spoke Xu yi.
"Of course after thinking about i think you created a pills capable of dodging the restriction in here." Spoke Lin cheng His toughtsn
"Exactly! I knew you would get it." Spoke Xu Yi satisfied with Lin cheng and then he proceed to speak his toughts and how he created the pills.
So during his way towards the formation Lin cheng and Xu yi had a talk about the alchemy way.
Couples hours later.....
Lin cheng finally arrived at the formation level.
"Open bloodline."
"Activate spirits roots."
Boom!
Boom!
After hiting it twice with his strength the formation fell apart.
"Good job little friend!" Spoke Xu Yi.
After breaking the formation Lin cheng kept walking towards the front.
And after walking for a while Lin cheng was shock to find a big space about couples of met the length. He decided to keep walking and found that the temperature start it to become hot the more he walk.
"Xu Yi what's the second formation." He look back act Xu Yi.
"Cough in fact the second formation is a earth flame." Spoke Xu Yi.
But before Lin cheng could ask he already arrive at the end of the cave. And what amaze himself was the view.
He could see an old man that chasing to a big pillar.
The Sea Projection of Xu Yi dissapear returning to his body.
Lin cheng was shock to find that different his body was different from the Spirit sea projection the body of Xu yi look extremely thin and pale. He looks like he was in the blink of death. He didn't understand how can a Heavenly Deity Realm end up in such state.
"Cough.. cough little friend we finally meet." Spoke While coughing Xu Yi.
"Old ghost dont speak." Lin cheng hurriedly went to Xu yi.
"Wait.. you dont want to alarm the earth fire." Spoke Xu yi his voice hear like some at the end of his life.
Lin cheng hurriedly took out the Alchemy furnace and did a Origin Pill Holy Rank 5 with 9 Veins.
And give it to Xu yi , after taking the pill Xu yi body return to a rosy state but his hair still was white.
"You-" Lin cheng was interrupted.
"Is okay little friend sigh i have lost my cultivation." Said Xu Yi.
"System what happen tu xu yi." Ask Lin cheng.
[Ding! Scanning - 50 millions mall coins deducted.]
Seeing the notification Lin cheng felt speechless this systems of his always taking advantage.
[Ding! His meridian were taking away by the Earth Flames, leaving Xu yi without cultivation base. If Host wants Xu yi to recover the only way is to helping Xu yi absorb the earth flames.]
[Ding! Extra info in order for Xu yi to absorb the flame he need to recast his meridian. There 2 options one for host to make a Heavenly Rank Meridians Pill or use his inmortal golden flame from the phoenix bloodline.]
At leas he knew where to start.
Even though the system just took a bite from wallet he was grateful it provided him the answer needed.
"Little friend once you brake my chains that earth flame would come so be careful we need to escap-" before Xu yi could continue he was interrupted.
"Old ghost i got you." Lin cheng that even Xu Yi earth flame was taken away. He couldn't help but sigh that Xu yi risk his life in order to refine a pill. So it was trues alchemist are people that had couples of screws out.
The next moment Xu yi was surprise when felt being enveloped by a fiery golden flame that looks beautiful.
Couples hours later.....
Xu yi was genuinely shock he saw how his old meridian were growing he couldn't help be excited.
He knew his situation he have heard of it before. Once an earth flame takes away your meridian he take it away with your Cultivation. And there's no possible way to get it back. Unless you absorb it but is impossible because in order to absorb the earth flame back you need to regrow them to the same exact level they were before being taken away.
The problem is even if you how is possible to absorb it back with no cultivation you might have the meridians back but how do you fight the earth flame. And most people wouldn't help. They would prefert to keep the earth flame for themselves.
But what shock him is that with the Golden flame his exact old Heavenly meridians were growing back.
