"Mi He, is there sothing else you need?" Song Wen asked.
"Daoist Cui, where do you cultivate?" Mi He inquired.
Song Wen replied, "I am a loose cultivator, without a fixed place to stay, so I don’t have a permanent cultivation location."
Mi He clearly didn’t believe Song Wen’s words. How could a young cultivator be without a fixed place to stay?
She raised her hand and threw a jade slip. "This is my communication jade slip. If you need anything, you can contact through it. Perhaps we may have another opportunity to cooperate."
The recipe Mi He gave to Song Wen contained so secret techniques exclusive to the Beastmaster Sect, and so of the herbs could only be found there, making them very difficult to find outside.
She was certain that Song Wen would co to her again for another trade.
Song Wen accepted the communication jade slip and took out his own, handing it to Mi He.
"Mi He, by the way, how is the Lei family doing now?" Song Wen suddenly asked.
"Several golden core cultivators from the Lei family, along with so talented family mbers, fled to the demonic realm. The others were all executed," Mi He said casually.
However, this simple statent ant that millions of Lei family mbers, including the elderly, won, and children, had perished.
After saying their goodbyes, Song Wen left quietly.
Instead of heading straight to Donghua City to find Zhou Siyi, Song Wen chose a secluded spot to rest and continue healing his injuries.
A month later, when his injuries had almost fully healed, Song Wen disguised himself as a loose cultivator in the Foundation Establishnt stage and returned to Donghua City.
Walking through the street lined with shops, Song Wen noticed that all the shops that had once belonged to the Lei family were now under new ownership and had been turned into properties of the Beastmaster Sect.
"The Beastmaster Sect is really fast," Song Wen muttered to himself.
Song Wen arrived at the courtyard where Zhou Siyi was renting a place and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" Zhou Siyi’s cautious voice ca from inside the courtyard.
Her spiritual sense had already detected Song Wen, but his aura and appearance were different from the last ti they t, which made her cautious.
"It’s , Ji Yin."
Song Wen used his spiritual power to transmit his voice directly into Zhou Siyi’s ear.
Creak!
The door opened, revealing Zhou Siyi’s delicate face. Her large eyes still held a hint of wariness.
"Is it really you, Junior Brother Ji Yin?"
Song Wen’s mind moved, and the Shadow Gu that had been near Zhou Siyi suddenly flew up, landing in his hand.
Seeing this, Zhou Siyi smiled.
"It’s really you, Junior Brother. Co on in."
The two entered the courtyard.
Song Wen looked at the Shadow Gu in his hand, but a trace of doubt appeared on his face.
The Gu’s aura was noticeably stronger than when he had left.
Song Wen raised his hand and placed the Gu in front of Zhou Siyi.
"Senior Sister Zhou, did you do this?"
Zhou Siyi nodded proudly.
"I had nothing to do, so I used the spirit stones you gave to purchase various herbs and fed them to the Gu. In the end, I found that Mysterious Dew Flower could enhance its power. It’s a pity that my alchemy field is broken, so I can’t use my magical powers. Otherwise, if I could refine a Dragon Strength Pill, the Gu’s power would have increased even faster."
Hearing this, Song Wen’s eyes flashed with surprise.
He had spent considerable effort and spirit stones, but had been unable to improve the Gu’s power.
Yet, Zhou Siyi had achieved this in just a month.
However, after thinking it through, Song Wen didn’t find it too surprising.
Back when they were at the Beastmaster Sect, Zhou Siyi had shown an extraordinary talent and unique insight in cultivating demon beasts.
"Senior Sister Zhou, do you think you can cultivate a fourth-tier Gu?" Song Wen asked.
"A fourth-tier Gu?" Zhou Siyi glanced at Song Wen, "Junior Brother, you’re really bold to even consider that."
Song Wen also realized that his request might have been too high and didn’t press the matter further.
"Senior Sister, this Gu is for you. Try to enhance its power as much as you can. By the way, how many spirit stones do you still have?"
Zhou Siyi’s expression beca a little awkward.
"In order to find suitable herbs, I bought many types of spirit herbs to try. The spirit stones you gave are almost used up," she replied.
Song Wen was slightly stunned. He had given Zhou Siyi enough spirit stones worth ten top-grade spirit stones and various other grades, yet in just a month, they were all gone.
Cultivating high-tier Gu spirits was indeed no easy task.
"Senior Sister Zhou, let show you sothing good," Song Wen said, suddenly smiling mysteriously.
Zhou Siyi’s interest was imdiately piqued. "What is it?"
Song Wen took out a jade box and handed it to her.
"What is this?" Zhou Siyi asked curiously.
"You’ll know once you see it," Song Wen replied.
After receiving the jade box, Zhou Siyi’s eyes instantly brightened like stars.
"Sea Spirit Fruit!"
She gasped, looking up at Song Wen, "Where did you get this?"
"Naturally, from the Lei family."
"The Lei family was already destroyed by the Beastmaster Sect, right?"
"I obtained it before the Lei family was destroyed."
"Junior Brother Ji Yin, I really don’t know how to thank you," Zhou Siyi said.
Song Wen replied, "Senior Sister, there’s no need for thanks. You should focus on healing your dantian. I’ll protect you while you ditate."
Zhou Siyi nodded in agreent.
...
To avoid being disturbed while repairing her dantian, Zhou Siyi did not go into seclusion in the rented courtyard but instead accompanied Song Wen to a mountain several thousand miles away.
Song Wen carved out a cave on the mountainside to serve as a temporary healing chamber for Zhou Siyi.
After setting up concealnt and spirit gathering arrays, Zhou Siyi sat cross-legged, closed her eyes, and began to focus on healing, gathering her energy.
Song Wen sat a few ters away, keeping a watchful eye in case any accidents occurred during Zhou Siyi’s healing process, so he could intervene if necessary.
Two days later, Zhou Siyi opened her mouth and swallowed the Sea Spirit Fruit.
The pure dicinal power of the Sea Spirit Fruit surged toward the damaged areas of her dantian.
The dicinal force was so intense that it was like a wild horse running loose, crashing violently in her dantian, as if it were trying to tear her dantian apart.
Pain that was almost unbearable radiated from her dantian.
Zhou Siyi’s face imdiately turned as pale as paper, beads of sweat pouring down her forehead.
Her hands clenched into fists, and her body trembled involuntarily.
She gritted her teeth, enduring the excruciating pain.
At the sa ti, she fully activated the Azure Wood Spirit Heart Technique to control the energy in her dantian. If the energy exploded at this mont, it would result in the loss of her cultivation at best, or death at worst.
She hadn’t been successful in switching to the Longevity Technique, so she continued to use the Azure Wood Spirit Heart Technique for control.
Fortunately, she hadn’t managed to change her cultivation thod; otherwise, her cultivation in the Golden Core Stage would have dropped back to the beginning.
Seeing Zhou Siyi’s reaction, Song Wen knew there was no need for him to intervene.
As ti passed, the pain on Zhou Siyi’s face slowly faded, and her dantian was gradually repaired to its original state.
Three months later.
Zhou Siyi opened her eyes, and her expression showed a joy she could hardly conceal.
"Junior Brother, my dantian has fully healed, and it’s even stronger than before."
"Congratulations, Senior Sister Zhou," Song Wen said, smiling.
