Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 264: Chapter 264: Water of Life, Reshaping the Body

”Rest assured, I will not let the murderers go unpunished. Even if one hundred thousand years have passed, I have a way to root them all out,” Ye Yun said calmly. His voice contained an authority as vast as the heavens.

Upon hearing this, the Xuan Bird felt a remarkable surge of spirit.

”Master, does this mean You have been reborn?” the Xuan Bird thought for a moment, then asked cautiously.

”No, I simply went to a place and cultivated there for one hundred thousand years,” Ye Yun replied with a smile.

He went to a place?

The Xuan Bird was somewhat puzzled. Why would the Master leave the immensely grand Dragon God Sect to go somewhere to cultivate? Without the Master to support it, the Dragon God Sect could only disintegrate before its enemies.

”Master, what is your cultivation base now?” the Xuan Bird hesitated for a moment, then plucked up the courage to ask.

”The Divine Monarch Realm,” Ye Yun stated nonchalantly.

Upon hearing this realm, the Xuan Bird was somewhat confused. To be honest, he only knew that the True God Realm was above the Eternal Realm. As for what lay beyond the True God Realm, he was completely in the dark.

Ye Yun chuckled and lightly touched the Xuan Bird’s head with one finger. A stream of understanding infused into him, and the Xuan Bird suddenly comprehended. Now he had a basic understanding of the realms above the True God Realm.

「...」

”Master, after that great battle, the Dragon God Sect was severely damaged. I did not return to the Sect but went into hiding...” At this point, the Xuan Bird’s voice was somewhat suppressed, and his expression grave. He felt rather despondent and emotionally turbulent as he continued, ”Master, it’s not that I am afraid of death. I just didn’t want to die in vain. Since no one in the entire Sect had noticed that strange black gate, I wanted to live on, awaiting Your return to this world, and then tell You everything.”

Seeing the Xuan Bird’s cleverness, Ye Yun felt relieved and nodded. ”I understand your reasons. Luckily, You are still alive; otherwise, I am afraid the culprits behind the Dragon God Sect’s fall would have vanished into the dust of history,” Ye Yun sighed.

The Xuan Bird had truly endured hardship, suffering humiliation while scraping by for one hundred thousand years. This Original Stone, for instance, was likely obtained at a great price. After all, back then, the Dragon God Sect did not have surplus Original Stones to provide to the avian creatures in the Hundred Bird Forest.

Seeing that the Master understood him, tears instantly welled up in the Xuan Bird’s eyes. Choking with emotion, he said, ”Master, I’m afraid I can only live for another hundred years at most. I can stay by Your side for a hundred years, and then I will completely return to this universe.”

Ye Yun remained silent, an inexplicable sorrow, like that of a fox grieving for a dead rabbit, rising in his heart.

”Don’t worry,” Ye Yun said calmly, reaching out and patting the Xuan Bird’s shoulder. ”I... won’t let you die.”

This time, the Xuan Bird had certainly made a great contribution. No matter what, Ye Yun could not let him live for only another hundred years. Ye Yun had a way to revitalize the Xuan Bird’s decaying body.

A moment later, Ye Yun took out a small bottle containing a Mysterious Green Liquid. He casually tossed the bottle to the Xuan Bird and smiled, ”Drink up. Keep drinking until your body is back to normal...”

The Xuan Bird acknowledged, took the bottle somewhat mechanically, uncapped it, and peeked inside. Immediately, a vigorous life force billowed out. Just by taking one breath, he felt an indescribable vitality surge through his body.

What kind of treasure is this?

The Xuan Bird was extremely shocked, his hand trembling as he slowly raised the small bottle to his lips. Streams of Mysterious Green Liquid flowed from the bottle, like a small creek pouring into the Xuan Bird’s mouth.

After the Mysterious Green Liquid entered his body, it transformed into vigorous and overwhelming life energy, beginning to remodel his physical form.

Although Ye Yun had set up a barrier around them, it only blocked sound, not visuals.

When the Big Black Cat saw the Mysterious Green Liquid in the small bottle, his eyes instantly sparkled. He knew the terrifying nature of the Mysterious Green Liquid from the Master’s bottle; just a drop could dramatically heal even severe injuries in an instant. Elder Xuan Bird was drinking so much of the Mysterious Green Liquid as if it were water; his decaying body would undoubtedly regain new vitality.

At this moment, a layer of faint green radiance emerged from the Xuan Bird’s body, and his previously withered complexion became vibrant again. The tissues within his body were revitalized.

Feeling all these astonishing changes, the Xuan Bird could hardly contain the overwhelming shock in his heart. He knew that the Master was completely different from one hundred thousand years ago. The heaven-defying Mysterious Green Liquid in the small bottle had never before appeared on the entire Cangnan Continent.

The time it takes for an incense stick to burn passed.

The Xuan Bird himself felt somewhat numb, unsure how much of the Mysterious Green Liquid he had drunk. Finally, when he felt his body uncomfortably bloated, as if he couldn’t control the tremendous life energy within, he couldn’t help but feel horrified. He immediately put the small bottle away and capped it. The Xuan Bird knew he couldn’t consume any more of the Mysterious Green Liquid; if he continued, his body would explode instantly.

Staggering like a drunkard, the Xuan Bird walked over to Ye Yun and raised the small bottle with both hands. ”Thank you, Lord, for granting me a new lease on life!” the Xuan Bird said gratefully.

As he spoke, his face was flushed red, his body swaying. The vigorous life energy within him was still surging like hundreds of giant dragons.

Seeing this, Ye Yun smiled faintly and accepted the small bottle. Then, he pointed a finger. A sacred white light descended upon the Xuan Bird’s body, instantly suppressing the rampant life energy.

The Xuan Bird took a long deep breath, feeling as if he had just taken a round trip through the Ghost Gate Pass.

It turns out that having excessively strong life energy isn’t always a good thing! The Xuan Bird laughed awkwardly, his face turning even redder.

Having regained his vitality, his entire being had returned to a youthful state. He looked energetic and vibrant; where was the previously decaying and dying figure?

”Big Brother, what was that stuff the Lord gave Elder Xuan Bird to drink? How can it have such incredible healing effects?” Cat Baby, who had witnessed the entire process, was drooling with envy and quietly asked the Big Black Cat.

”It’s a Mysterious Green Liquid. I don’t know exactly what it is, but I’ve experienced its effects...” the Big Black Cat grinned proudly.

”Ah...” Cat Baby licked her lips, her eyes filled with envy.

”The Lord’s resources are truly profound, to actually possess such a terrifying sacred healing liquid...” Mu Qing, standing nearby, smiled gently, a similar gleam of envy in her eyes.

Hearing the conversation among the three, Ye Yun turned around. With a light flick of his finger, three droplets of green liquid floated before them.

”These are for you. No matter how severe your injuries, you can be healed instantly...” Ye Yun instructed.

”Thank you for the generous gift, Lord!”

The three of them were overjoyed. After bowing in gratitude, they scrambled in their elation to store the green liquid in small vials.

Seeing the clumsy movements of the two demons and one human, Ye Yun chuckled.

This sacred healing liquid, named Water of Life, filled his small green bottle in an amount comparable to all the water in Poyang Lake from his previous life. And in his storage, he had 10,000 more such small bottles.

Moreover, his Sacred Healing Medicines were not limited to this green liquid; he possessed even higher-level ones.

For instance, the Three Lights Divine Water...
