Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1341: Chapter 401: Heaven and Earth Tribulation Fifth Layer, Breakthrough!

As soon as the Qian Cauldron appeared, Luo Qixue’s soul was drawn into the Qian Cauldron.

Ye Lingyue was already very adept at Artifact Refining Elixirs these days, but as for refining a soul, this was her first attempt.

The only reason she dared to repair a soul was that last time, she’d already helped Di Shen reforge a physical body, setting a precedent.

In her view, if a physical body could be refined, then a soul could naturally be repaired as well—what’s more, the Qian Cauldron now was a grade stronger than before.

Only, it was not until she actually started refining that Ye Lingyue suddenly realized repairing a soul was far harder than refining a physical body.

Even in the Divine Realm, only those Fang Immortals dared to repair souls and refine physical bodies.

Simply because repairing a soul consumed spiritual power to a terrifying degree. Ye Lingyue was now only a Fang Venerate; one could well imagine the difficulty of repairing a soul.

As Ye Lingyue controlled the white Cauldron Breath, repairing Luo Qixue’s soul inch by inch, she could feel the spiritual power in her body being stripped away like silk pulled from a cocoon, rapidly consumed.

By the time she’d repaired it halfway, Ye Lingyue felt the spiritual power in her body was already nearing bottom.

But looking at Luo Qixue’s gradually clearer soul, if Ye Lingyue gave up at this moment, all previous efforts would be wasted.

Watching her spiritual power grow thinner and thinner, only one thought remained in Ye Lingyue’s mind.

She must not let it all fall short at the last moment. If she gave up, then between the Merfolk King and Lady Qixue, there would truly be a regret that would last forever.

Just as the last wisp of spiritual power in Ye Lingyue’s body was about to be exhausted, Luo Qixue, who had been watching Ye Lingyue all along, suddenly had a flash in her eyes.

Seeing Ye Lingyue drenched in sweat, yet refusing to give up even at the risk of her spiritual power drying up, Luo Qixue sighed inwardly. She made a heavy decision, and with a flicker of her Divine Sense—

Suddenly, an object dropped into the Qian Cauldron.

When that item fell into the cauldron and gave off a crisp clink, Ye Lingyue came back to herself. With one glance she clearly saw the true face of the object that had fallen into the Qian Cauldron.

It was a piece of white Jade Pendant, of excellent quality, looking every bit as priceless as the Phoenix Token Ye Lingyue possessed.

That Jade Pendant struck Ye Lingyue as somewhat familiar. She recalled that earlier, in the dreamscape woven by Guangzi, this same pendant had been hanging around the neck of the young Luo Qixue.

Only, why would Luo Qixue suddenly give her this Jade Pendant?

Just as Ye Lingyue was taken aback, Luo Qixue spoke.

”That is Fetus Jade, the Shui City Lord’s ancestral treasure. Back then, the reason my soul could be preserved after death and continuously grow stronger was precisely because of this piece of jade. I see this jade is fated with you, so I give it to you.”

The Fetus Jade’s origin was unknown; only the true bloodline of the Water God could possess it.

Luo Qixue had carried it on her person since childhood. When she died, Luo Qian was in such a panic he failed to notice the Jade Pendant, and sank Luo Qixue together with the Fetus Jade into the Moli Sea.

Though Luo Qixue’s body was gnawed away by Water Beasts, her soul was sucked into the jade by the Fetus Jade.

The jade continuously nourished Luo Qixue’s soul and, relying on its spiritual nature, found that stalk of seagrass parasitizing on the seabed, allowing Luo Qixue to borrow the plant as a vessel and be reborn.

Not only that, this Fetus Jade also possessed quite a mysterious aspect. Because Luo Qixue’s resentful thought was so deep, the Fetus Jade absorbed the Spiritual Energy between heaven and earth, transforming that Spiritual Energy into Resentful Qi, causing Luo Qixue’s soul to rapidly grow.

Only thus could Luo Qixue, within a span of little more than twenty years, grow into an existence as powerful as the Merfolk King.

Earlier, Luo Qixue had still harbored some selfish intentions: she wanted, after her soul was repaired, to use the Fetus Jade to take revenge on Luo Qian, then leave the Fetus Jade to her daughter Luo Qianche.

But only when Luo Qixue saw the Qian Cauldron did she realize that this Fetus Jade might be connected to Ye Lingyue.

For she had noticed that a Cauldron Seal was carved upon the Fetus Jade, and the shape of that Cauldron Seal was exactly the same as Ye Lingyue’s Qian Cauldron.

Thus Luo Qixue concluded that the Fetus Jade must be related to the Qian Cauldron.

Sure enough, after it fell into the Qian Cauldron, the body of the cauldron suddenly trembled. The Cauldron Breath, which had grown very weak due to the exhaustion of Ye Lingyue’s spiritual power, was as if injected with life force all at once and burrowed into the Cauldron Seal.

Just as the Cauldron Breath and the jade merged into one, Ye Lingyue suddenly heard a clear ”ding” echo from within her Dantian.

The Power of Heaven and Earth in her body surged forth like a breached flood, rushing out all at once, washing through her five viscera and six organs and her meridians.

This feeling?

Ye Lingyue felt her body was like a dead submarine volcano long lying dormant on the seabed, ignited in an instant. The thick Power of Heaven and Earth was like magma piercing the firmament, wave after wave.

Ever since Ye Lingyue broke through the Fourth Layer of the Power of Heaven and Earth last time, she had never again felt such a sensation.

A breakthrough!

She had actually broken through to the Fifth Layer of the Power of Heaven and Earth while helping Luo Qixue repair her soul this time.

The Power of Heaven and Earth within her Dantian abruptly increased by fifty to sixty percent, yet this was only the beginning.

Because Ye Lingyue discovered that at this moment, her Power of Heaven and Earth was undergoing a transformation.

Within her body, the newly born Power of Heaven and Earth was being converted into spiritual power at a gratifying speed.

After the Qian Cauldron obtained that piece of Fetus Jade, not only did Ye Lingyue break through the Heaven and Earth Tribulation Fifth Layer, but more astonishingly, the Power of Heaven and Earth and spiritual power in her body could actually transform freely into one another.

For Ye Lingyue, this was simply an enormous blessing.

For so many years, as to whether Alchemists or Martial Artists were stronger, no one had been able to give an answer.

But if someone could convert an Alchemist’s power into a Martial Artist’s power, or conversely convert a Martial Artist’s power into an Alchemist’s power, then whether in mortal Life and Death combat or in controlling Life and Death through Alchemy and Artifact Refining, the odds of success would be doubled.

And at this very moment, Ye Lingyue was facing just such an immense stroke of Luck!

After the surge of wild joy, Ye Lingyue immediately tightened her mind. The soul repair was still ongoing; at this time, she could not afford the slightest mistake.

After absorbing the Fetus Jade, the Cauldron Breath became even thicker and more enduring. Under the purification and repair of the Cauldron Breath, Luo Qixue’s soul gradually grew full. By the time the setting sun slanted, its afterglow spilling across the entire sea, Luo Qixue’s soul was finally completely repaired.

”Lady Qixue, I truly must thank you for what you did just now.”

Ye Lingyue bowed to Luo Qixue.

”No, it’s I who should be thanking you. You are the most suitable master for that Fetus Jade. Besides, I gave up the Fetus Jade only so that you might help me fulfill the wish I did not complete.” Though she was only a soul, Luo Qixue had also felt, just now, that surging power within Ye Lingyue’s body.

What kind of power was that? Entirely different from the Power of Reincarnation, yet even more astonishing than the Power of Reincarnation.

Luo Qixue felt deeply gratified. She had, after all, not misjudged her.

The young Newbie City Lord before her was by no means some ordinary thing in a small pond.

”Your wish—Lady Qixue, do you mean to say that you plan to...”

Ye Lingyue had the feeling she’d just been set up by Luo Qixue.

”That’s right. I’ve already decided not to bother with the grudges of the mundane world any longer. I want to spend the rest of my life accompanying Mo Ze. As for that wolf-hearted beast Luo Qian, I hope Miss Ye can help me deal with him.”
