Chapter 80: The Devastated Yan Qianyin
Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor:
Mo Wuji calculated; from the time he entered the Formless Blade Mountain, if it was not a month, it was not far from it. It might even have already exceeded a month; there might have been some problems with the transfer formation and he could not be transferred out.
In this month, he did not move out from the valley. The spiritual herbs in the valley have practically been plucked dry. He had already concocted one to two hundred Energy Gathering Pill and Vitality Replenishing Pill. However, he was worried that once he goes out, his pills might be snatched away.
Having his pills snatched away was a small matter. What's worse was if the experts from the Formless Blade Sect questioned him about the origins of his pills. What would he say then? He concocted them himself? Would he be able to keep his wordless pill manual? Mo Wuji’s origins was too simple to investigate; the Formless Blade Sect could even casually send a few people to investigate and they could easily find out how many times he visited the toilet. What if they discover that he didn't have the chance to learn pill refining, or that he even bought some drug refining equipment in Chang Luo. They would definitely ask: Who taught him to concoct pills? It would be impossible to hide the existence of the wordless pill manual.
However, he was also unwilling to leave these pills behind. After all, these were the efforts of tireless days and nights.
As Mo Wuji was deep in contemplation, he saw an old person with a head full of white hair staggering over.
No, that's not right. Mo Wuji soon discovered that this white haired person wasn't an old person but a lady with a graceful figure.
As she lifted her head, Mo Wuji was able to recognize her. She was Yan Qianyin, the Tier 4 Earth Pill Refiner who entered the Formless Blade Mountain with him.
A month ago, when they were being transferred to the Formless Blade Mountain, Yan Qianyin still had a head full of black hair. A month did not even pass and her hair was entirely bleached. If not for her face and figure, Mo Wuji would not have been able to recognize her.
How exactly did she age so much over this short period of time, yet her face remained unchanged?
When Yan Qianyin saw Mo Wuji, her body gave in and she collapsed.
Mo Wuji did not think about anything else as he rushed forward to pick Yan Qianyin up. He found that Yan Qianyin's skin was all shriveled up, dearth of blood energy. It was as though she had spent tens of years here and her longevity was running out.
Mo Wuji did not hesitate to retrieve the pills he concocted and put some Vitality Replenishing Pills and Smooth Blood Pills in her mouth.
The Smooth Blood Pill was also a Tier 1 pill. Mo Wuji concocted it for Yan’Er to use. Due to her poor nutrition, Yan’Er’s body had very poor foundations. The Smooth Blood Pill was filled with spiritual ingredients which were nourishing and nutritious; it was very suitable for Yan'Er to use.
As the pills entered Yan Qianyin's mouth, there was no change on her face but there seemed to be some blood flowing through her shriveled skin.
Mo Wuji hastily put Yan Qianyin on his back and brought her into his cave. Yan Qianyin was a Tier 4 Earth Pill Refiner with an impressive cultivation. Even with this level of cultivation, she was almost robbed of her life. His cultivation wasn't even worth looking at.
Mo Wuji had a good impression of Yan Qianyin. Not only was her pill refining standards the best in the sect, she also helped him when Pill Master Ju was bent against him.
Mo Wuji placed Yan Qianyin on the stone bed which he usually used; she simply lay there unmoving and with her eyes closed. However, Mo Wuji knew that his Smooth Blood Pill and Vitality Replenishing Pill were working and that she was gradually recovering. Her aura was richer and her blood energy became stronger.
Looking at the gradually recovering Yan Qianyin, Mo Wuji was reminded of the barren land which he passed. At the border between life and death, the plants were gradually withering.
Didn't this Yan Qianyin look like she was also withering as she instantly grew older?
Thinking about this, Mo Wuji felt goosebumps all over his body. Besides stealing this life force from the herbs and the land, this place was also robbing the life force of cultivators?
“Thanks for saving me,” Yan Qianyin’s voice sounded out weakly, interrupting Mo Wuji's wild imagination.
Mo Wuji hastily said, “Luckily I met you. What happened?”
