Chapter 1489 - Wake Up (2/2)

“Um… Nothing… I wish there was someone who could always protect me. Then I wouldn’t need to refine or battle anyways. Life would be much easier that way,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Mu Lingxi snorted, “In your dreams.”

Princess White Li walked to Zhang Ruochen and Mu Lingxi, dragging the corpse of the Bone Phoenix. “My lord, I’ve found something precious in the corpse.”

“Really?”

Zhang Ruochen walked Mu Lingxi to a blue stone and told her to treat her wounds while sitting there.

The spine of the Bone Phoenix was more than twelve hundred feet long. One of the bones had been pierced through by a spike, and blue liquids flowed out.

The liquids solidified the second they touched the air.

“That is…”

Zhang Ruochen felt an icy coldness from the blue crystal. There seemed to be dense saintly way power in the coldness, which resembled Ning True Saint Dew.

Princess White Li said, “Ice Phoenix Saint Marrow.”

Zhang Ruochen hadn’t read relevant books yet, so he didn’t know much about Ice Phoenix Saint Marrow.

Princess White Li said, “Ice Phoenix Saint Marrow and Ning True Saint Dew have the same effect. The difference is, it’s easier for saints to absorb Ice Phoenix Saint Marrow, especially for saints with ice body const.i.tution. Their cultivation can be improved five times more quickly when they refine Ice Phoenix Saint Marrow rather than Ning True Saint Dew.

“The amount of Ice Phoenix Saint Marrow inside the spine of the Bone Phoenix can rival ten thousand drops of Ning True Saint Dew. It’s definitely a treasure.”

Zhang Ruochen seized a large amount of Ning True Saint Dew from other saints, which was more than enough to help him become an absolute saint.

And besides, he didn’t have ice body const.i.tution, so Ice Phoenix Saint Marrow wouldn’t help him much.

Eventually, Zhang Ruochen looked to Mu Lingxi.

Ten thousand drops of Ice Phoenix Saint Marrow should be enough for Mu Lingxi to become an absolute saint.

Zhang Ruochen cut all the bones of Bone Phoenix using the Abyss Ancient Sword, leaving only the spine.

And then, he mobilized Divine Fire Jingmie to refine the Ice Phoenix Saint Marrow inside, turning it into drops of liquids which contained tremendous saintly way power.

After Zhang Ruochen finished refining all the Phoenix Saint Marrow, Mu Lingxi had completely recovered from her injuries. However, she was still feeble because she had burnt too much saint blood.

Zhang Ruochen gave her the Ice Phoenix Saint Marrow and asked her to get back to the s.p.a.ce crystal.

Mu Lingxi knew that she was too weak to be of any help, so she went in without questioning it.

Mu Lingxi gave Qiu Yu a look before walking back into the s.p.a.ce crystal and said, “Spare his life if you can. I do owe him a favor.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “He did help you once, yet he almost killed you. I’ll give him a choice.”

Mu Lingxi nodded and walked into the inner s.p.a.ce of the s.p.a.ce crystal.

“Where are Demonic Sound and Han Qiu? Did they run into some trouble?” Zhang Ruochen had a hunch that something bad might’ve happened.

And then, he heard the sounds of an argument coming from nearby.

Zhang Ruochen then looked to where the arguing sound came from. He saw Mad Man. He then walked toward him.

Mad Man was very upset and said, “Le, we’re brothers who’ve been through life and death together. Why are you pointing your sword at me?”

Le held his sword against Mad Man’s forehead in silence.

Meanwhile, Zhang Ruochen walked behind Le, holding the body of Zhentian Tiger and throwing the corpse to Mad Man.

Bang!

Zhentian Tiger had turned back to its original form, which was a giant tiger that was more than seventy feet long. However, its head was crushed.

“Zhentian Tiger!”

Mad Man was astounded. He raised his head and asked, “What happened?”

“Shouldn’t you know what happened?” It was Princess Luosha instead of Zhang Ruochen who said that.

Princess Luosha walked out of the ancient sycamore woods. Her face was pale, with some blood on her lips.

Before she could reach Zhang Ruochen, she spit out blood and almost fell.

Zhang Ruochen helped her stand up and pressed his fingers against her wrist, trying to inspect her injuries, but he didn’t find anything.

However, Princess Luosha was indeed severely injured.

Mad Man was confused. He asked, “What happened? Who can tell me what happened exactly?”

Princess Luosha knew that Zhang Ruochen was trying to test her, yet she still managed to stay calm. She leaned on Zhang Ruochen with her entire body and said, “What happened? What happened was Yuan Hun ambushed me and wounded me seriously. You people from Eight Ministry Field aren’t sincere at all about cooperating and are just trying to take the Merits Record Wall for yourself. What’re you doing here? Trying to seize the Merits Record Wall? Zhang Ruochen, kill him.”
