Chapter 761: Chapter 0476: Finally Seeing You_2 Chapter 761: Chapter 0476: Finally Seeing You_2 Qi Tian referred to this Stone Milk Cream as Stone Milk Essence; both take on a paste-like form, even easier to transform into ultra-high-purity Spirit Qi than top-grade spirit stones. Moreover, Qi Tian had a somewhat immature idea: both Spirit Qi and Stone Milk Essence are fluid in nature, they penetrate everything. Since ultra-high-purity Spirit Qi can directly enter the Qi Sea, perhaps Stone Milk Essence could also directly get into the Qi Sea. Additionally, according to Qi Tian’s knowledge, Stone Milk Cream is a remarkably precious material for alchemy. Perhaps some cultivators directly absorb Stone Milk Cream as a medicinal pill.
With the Stone Milk Essence serving as a substitute for the ultra-high-purity Spirit Qi, what Qi Tian needed to do was to figure out a way to introduce the Stone Milk Essence directly into Jin Jin’s Qi Sea. If he could achieve that, then Jin Jin could be saved.
Qi Tian thought left and right, decided to attempt this method first. If this method didn’t work, or he was unable to operate it, then he would think of other approaches. If all else fails, he would plan to wake Jin Jin up first, then let him enter the Healing Array to heal himself.
Qi Tian waved his hand, asking Gao Jinmei to leave the room first, then asked Wang Youjun to undress Jin Jin, and asked him to leave Jin Jin’s room and keep watch from outside. Qi Tian himself remained alone in the room.
Qi Tian took a bit of Stone Milk Cream, intending to first experiment whether he could force the Stone Milk Cream into Jin Jin’s Qi Sea. If it was possible, he could then attempt to use the Stone Milk Essence.
Qi Tian applied a bit of this Stone Milk Cream on Jin Jin’s lower abdomen, where a cultivator’s Qi Sea is located. Just as Qi Tian was preparing to figure out a way to force the Stone Milk Cream into Jin Jin’s Qi Sea, he unexpectedly discovered the Stone Milk Cream was slowly diminishing, similar to the slow evaporation of water after being applied to Jin Jin’s belly.
Qi Tian hurriedly used the sensing function of the Heavenly Dao Engine on the Spirit Qi to check out the situation. Very quickly, he understood what was going on. It turned out that the Stone Milk Cream applied on Jin Jin’s lower abdomen had indeed evaporated partially, but there was also a part that had seeped through Jin Jin’s skin and fat, infiltrating into Jin Jin’s Qi Sea. Then it transformed directly into Spirit Qi within Jin Jin’s Qi Sea, lingering around the ruptured Gold Core, ready for absorption.
After observing for a while, Qi Tian noticed that roughly one tenth of the Stone Milk Cream was absorbed, while the rest was wasted.
Qi Tian was overjoyed with this result; he had not expected that the Stone Milk Cream would have such mysterious effects. No extra operation was required, it could seep into the Qi Sea by itself, or rather, the Qi Sea could absorb the Stone Milk Cream actively. Regardless of who was active, this proved that this Stone Milk Cream was indeed a priceless item for healing.
Without any hesitation, an elated Qi Tian quickly took out a jade box about the size of a pigeon’s egg which contained the Stone Milk Essence he had obtained. He applied a bit on Jin Jin’s lower abdomen, then continued to observe it using the Heavenly Dao Engine’s sensing ability on the Spirit Qi.
Soon, Qi Tian noticed that the Stone Milk Essence could also seep into Jin Jin’s Qi Sea. For some unknown reason, the absorption rate was slightly worse than the Stone Milk Cream’s, only around 90%. But the quality of the Stone Milk Essence far exceeded that of the Stone Milk Cream. So, in the same amount of time, the Spirit Qi that entered Jin Jin’s Qi Sea far exceeded the amount when using the Stone Milk Cream.
Qi Tian was not stingy with the Stone Milk Essence. He had some more of these treasures. He applied the Stone Milk Essence to Jin Jin’s lower abdomen time and again. Apart from the essence absorbed by Jin Jin, Qi Tian did not waste any of the Spirit Qi that had evaporated. He absorbed all of it. He did not use it to promote the growth of his own realm, but let the Heavenly Dao Engine use it as fuel.
In this way, Qi Tian used up more than a dozen jade boxes the size of pigeon’s eggs. Only then, through the Heavenly Dao Engine’s Spirit Qi sensing function, could he “see” that Jin Jin’s broken Gold Core was bonded back together and became whole again. Of course, if Jin Jin’s Gold Core was to fully recover, he would need a few more days of recuperation. However, Jin Jin could be considered to have turned misfortune into a blessing. Perhaps due to absorbing an excessive amount of Stone Milk Essence, Jin Jin’s Gold Core had become bigger, and by the time he finished his recuperation, he should be able to advance to the second level of the Gold Core Realm.
The cost of healing Jin Jin this time was quite significant for Qi Tian. Each pigeon-egg-sized jade box contained Stone Milk Essence whose Spirit Qi alone could amount to three or four top-grade spirit stones. More than a dozen such jade boxes, when put together, could unquestionably be exchanged for fifty top-grade spirit stones. This was just counting purely from the perspective of Spirit Qi. In reality, the value of the Stone Milk Essence could not be calculated like this. Given the unique characteristics of the Stone Milk Essence, if brought to Wanjie City, there would definitely be Nascent Soul Masters willing to purchase it with even more top-grade spirit stones. It wouldn’t be a problem to mark up the price by 50% to 60%. If met with a generous Nascent Soul Master, even doubling the price could be possible.
Of course, it was impossible for Qi Tian to showcase the Stone Milk Essence in front of those Nascent Soul Masters. Doing so would be tantamount to courting death. Even if these masters were willing to offer him top-grade spirit stones, they would likely find an opportunity to kill him afterwards.
Qi Tian didn’t wait for Jin Jin to wake up before he left her room. He instructed Wang Youjun to guard the place carefully. Afterward, he went to see Gao Jinmei. Despite her Gold Core being damaged, it had only dimmed and not ruptured. Thus, it did not require treatment with extremely pure Spirit Qi. Qi Tian had no intention of using such methods on her as it would be somewhat wasteful.
However, Qi Tian didn’t disregard her. Instead, he gave Gao Jinmei six thousand middle-grade spirit stones and told her she could use them as she pleased. Whatever was left could be viewed as her earnings. If it was not enough, any deficit would have to be filled by Gao Jinmei herself.
Gao Jinmei had not anticipated Qi Tian giving her so many middle-grade spirit stones. Even though she understood it was because Qi Tian needed her to continue risking her life for him, she was still deeply moved and grateful. She’d seen the plight of others Immortal Slaves, their masters wouldn’t care for them if they were seriously injured like her.
After telling Gao Jinmei to focus on healing, Qi Tian went to check on Prince Zhao and Guan Xun. Both were still unconscious. Qi Tian didn’t linger and left the courtyard.
Just as he stepped out of the courtyard, Qi Tian saw Marquis Ma walking toward him. Upon seeing Qi Tian, Marquis Ma quickly dropped to his knees to salute him.
“Master, I finally got to see you,” he said.
“What’s the matter?” Qi Tian knew that Marquis Ma usually reported matters directly to Prince Zhao. Only on the rare occasions, such as when army wages couldn’t be paid, would he come to him.
Marquis Ma promptly responded, “How is Prince Zhao doing? Master, your orders to integrate the army and cultivators have been largely fulfilled. Everyone is now hoping that Prince Zhao can lead us to the North and capture the Capital.”
Marquis Ma seemed spirited. Ever since rebelling against the court and following Prince Zhao, he suffered a great deal. The worst time was when he lost an arm. It was Qi Tian who took him to Four Seas Bank and sought justice for him. After they returned, Marjus Ma took a pill Qi Tian bestowed upon him, which helped him regrow his arm.
However, his hardship didn’t end there. Later, Elder Zhang Weimeng of Four Seas Bank beat him severely. He would have died if Qi Tian hadn’t returned in time to save him. Now, Marquis Ma was full of respect, fear, and gratitude for Qi Tian. He would have offered to serve as Qi Tian’s vanguard if Qi Tian hadn’t ordered him to serve under Prince Zhao.
Qi Tian said, “Take me to see it first.”
Marquis Ma immediately asked, “May I ask which part you want to see first? The Northern Expedition Army, the immortal masters, or the civil and military officials?”
With Qi Tian’s support, Prince Zhao had established a mini-court, replete with various civil and military officials, and in no small number.
