Chapter 157 - Chengyu’s Wounds (2/2)

“Floaty, what’s the situation?” Shen Ying rushed him, changing the topic.

“Oh,” Bitao stepped forward and used his immortal Qi to survey Roasted Chicken Gal’s body. The longer he surveyed the body, the deeper his frown became. He turned to face the worried Feng Ying and sighed. “Her body, meridians, dantian and divine perception have all been broken by the lightning tribulation. It’s going to be very troublesome but not entirely impossible to heal her body.” They just needed to nurture it.

Feng Ying rejoiced, but Bitao continued, “As for why her spirit cannot return to her body – I cannot explain why.”

When Bitao finished speaking, both Feng Ying’s and Roasted Chicken Gal’s expressions darkened. Was there no solution, even in the immortal realm?

“Of course, it could be because my cultivation level is low,” Bitao added.

They remained looking solemn and disappointed.

“Why not… we wait for Father Niu to come and take a look?” Shen Ying suggested. Chef was still healing and could not help them to look, but Father Niu might have a way.

“Niu…” Feng Ying paused and then finally recalled who Shen Ying was referring to. His heart leapt. Compared to the infuriating Shen Ying, Feng Ying took a much greater liking to her companion. “Brother Lonemoon has ascended to immortality as well!”

“What’s wrong with me?” Just as she finished speaking, Lonemoon walked over. He finally finished the lightning tribulation and seemed to be in high spirits.

“Hey, Father Niu.” Shen Ying waved her hand. He was just in time – she already finished spending all the immortal stones.

She was just about to greet him when Feng Ying stepped forward.

“Brother Niu, you’ve finally arrived!”

“…” Who’s your Brother Niu? Lonemoon frowned and scanned the burnt strangers in front of him. It was then that he realised who they were. “Tower Master Ying, you’ve ascended?” So he was the reason why Lonemoon had felt strange movements in the immortal Qi while he was going through the Heavenly Tribulation.

He turned around and glared at Shen Ying. His look seemed to say, “All you know how to do is to bring people back to eat our food and then act poor all the time!”

Feng Ying, on the other hand, did not feel an ounce of contempt. He just looked hopeful. “Niu… I mean, Brother Lonemoon, please help Little Yu.”

“What Little Yu?” Lonemoon turned and saw Qi Chengyu. Holy shit! He glared at the foodie once again. You’ve brought back two of them! He decided to deduct her allowance.

“Fellow Immortal Bitao said that your cultivation level is the highest. You are her only hope now.” He knelt down immediately.

Hmm, that sounds pleasing to the ears!

“Tower Master Ying, please do not stand on ceremony.” Lonemoon reached out and helped Feng Ying to his feet. “Please tell me what’s going on?” On account of your great boot-licking skills… “Although I am of the highest cultivation level here, I do still need to know what’s going on, right?”

The hurt Yi Qing: “…”

Feng Ying began to tell Lonemoon everything that had happened. Lonemoon checked on Roasted Chicken Gal, then he shook his head and said, “I have no solution either.”

Feng Ying turned pale.

“I don’t understand much about spirits. I have never seen anyone in a similar situation as her.” Lonemoon paused to ponder and then added, “But… I heard that there’s an immortal herb called the Dry Half-Moon. I heard that it can nourish spirits. It might be of some help.”

“Really!” Feng Ying jumped. He was just about to ask where he could find this immortal herb.

“The Dry Half-Moon!” Bitao exclaimed, looking utterly surprised. That’s a top-grade immortal herb, and it only grows on top of the Heavens beyond Heaven. That’s the realm of the ten Celestial Emperors. Ordinary immortals have never seen this herb.” And whatever nourishes a spirit is normally also good for the divine perception – these immortal herbs were all considered treasures.
