Chapter 458 - 458 458 Holy Soul Water Part 1

458: Chapter 458: Holy Soul Water (Part 1) 458: Chapter 458: Holy Soul Water (Part 1) “Thank you for saving us!”

Li Yuanba clasped his fists towards Long Yan and sincerely thanked him.

If it wasn’t for Long Yan this time, he would have definitely died at the hands of Yuwen Shengju.

Li Tian also stepped forward and clasped his fists towards Long Yan.

“It’s just a small matter.”

Long Yan smiled.

He decided to help because he saw that Li Yuanba had extraordinary physical strength.

He was curious as to how Li Yuanba, who was obviously not from the Barbarian Tribe, could cultivate his physical strength to such a height.

“Mo Er!”

At this moment, Li Yuanba’s face changed, and he hurriedly rushed towards the carriage, followed by Li Tian and Long Yan.

Inside the carriage, Mo Er’s life force was very weak, and she was completely unconscious.

Li Yuanba’s heart trembled as he held Mo Er in his arms and said to Li Tian, “Uncle Tian, let’s hurry to Soul Breaking Valley.”

“What’s going on?”

Long Yan asked.

“It’s like this, Mo Er has been poisoned by an unknown toxin, and the young master wants to take her to Soul Breaking Valley to ask the valley master to save her life.”

Li Tian answered.

“Poison?”

Long Yan raised his eyebrows and immediately said, “Let me take a look.”

Then, Long Yan entered the carriage, which was spacious enough for him.

“It’s actually the Corpse God Gu Poison.”

After investigating Mo Er’s condition, Long Yan’s face instantly changed.

“What’s wrong?”

Seeing Long Yan’s expression, Li Yuanba hurriedly asked.

“The poison she’s been infected with is called Corpse God Gu Poison.

This poison is extremely domineering.

Not only can it devour the vitality of the flesh, but it can also corrode the soul.”

Long Yan explained.

The Corpse God Gu Poison is an extremely overbearing poison.

Even those strong at the Emperor Realm would find it troublesome if they were infected.

Mo Er is only at the Heavenly Martial Realm, so how could she possibly resist the Corpse God Gu Poison?

“Corpse God Gu Poison.”

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanba’s face became serious as well.

He had naturally heard of the Corpse God Gu Poison; such a poison was extremely rare and nonexistent in the Taiyan Nine Cities.

How could Mo Er be poisoned by it?

“Do you have a way to detoxify Mo Er?”

Li Yuanba looked at Long Yan.

Since Long Yan could detect the Corpse God Gu Poison, he was certainly not an ordinary person and might have a way to detoxify her.

“I can try.”

Long Yan said.

“As long as you can save Mo Er, I promise you anything, no matter the conditions.”

Li Yuanba treated Mo Er as his lifeline, almost like his own life, and saw Long Yan as a lifesaving straw.

“You can wait outside.”

Long Yan said.

“Please!”

Li Yuanba nodded and immediately left the carriage.

“Corpse God Gu Poison, it’s really troublesome.”

Inside the carriage, Long Yan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

He then pointed a finger at Mo Er’s body and used his Poison God Finger technique to absorb the Corpse God Gu Poison from within her body.

After an hour, Long Yan had absorbed all of the Corpse God Gu Poison in Mo Er’s body, but she still showed no signs of waking up.

“This is a bit troublesome.”

Long Yan’s face also turned serious.

He then took out an elixir and placed it in Mo Er’s mouth before leaving the carriage.

“How is Mo Er?”

Li Yuanba hurriedly asked.

“I’ve removed the poison from her body, but I’ve only managed to temporarily save her life.”

Long Yan said, “The Corpse God Gu Poison has already corroded her soul and threatened her life.

I used an elixir to temporarily stabilize her soul, but I’m afraid it won’t last long.”

If he had detoxified her three hours earlier, Mo Er would not be in danger.

Now, it was already too late.

“How long can Mo Er hold on?”

Li Yuanba asked.

“At most, one month.”

Long Yan said.

“One month.”

Li Yuanba’s face became heavy and serious.

This meant that after one month, Mo Er would be in mortal danger.

“Is there no other way?”

Li Yuanba asked again.

“There is.”

Long Yan said, “As long as we can find the Holy Soul Water, we can heal her soul and save her.”

Soul injuries were the hardest to heal, and he was helpless against them.

“Holy Soul Water.”

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanba’s face became even more grave.

Holy Soul Water was a rare heavenly treasure that could nurture the soul, and even a single drop of it was worth as much as an Emperor Grade Elixir.

Such a thing did not exist in the entire Taiyan Nine Cities.

“Young Master, I accidentally overheard the Family Head mentioning that at this year’s Taiyan Martial Arts Conference, the reward for the Martial Meeting Leader will be a drop of Holy Soul Water, and the Martial Assembly will be in one month.”

Li Tian said.

“Martial Meeting Leader.”

Li Yuanba’s expression was bleak and powerless.

He wasn’t even at the True Martial Realm, so he didn’t have the qualifications to participate in the Martial Assembly, let alone become its leader.

“I must get the Holy Soul Water.”

For Mo Er’s sake, he had to get the Holy Soul Water at any cost.

“My name is Li Yuanba, may I ask for your full name, Benefactor?”

Li Yuanba asked.

“Long Yan.”

Long Yan softly uttered the two words.

“I shall never forget my debt to you for saving my life.

Why don’t you come to Li Huo City with me so I can repay your kindness and extend my hospitality?”

Li Yuanba invited Long Yan to Li Huo City.

“Alright.”

Long Yan nodded slightly in agreement.

Currently, he had no destination in mind, so it would be best to go to Li Huo City first and then make a decision.

“Uncle Tian, let’s return to the city.”

Long Yan and Li Yuanba got into the carriage, and Li Tian drove the carriage back.

On the way, Long Yan learned about some situations from Li Yuanba’s descriptions.

The Taiyan Nine Cities was a medium-sized force within the Jiu Xiao Dynasty, consisting of nine cities controlled by the Nine Great Families.

This alliance was called the Nine Cities Alliance, and Li Family was the leader of the alliance.

Half a day later, the carriage arrived in Li Huo City and went straight to Li Family.

“Uncle Tian, arrange a residence for our Benefactor first.”

After instructing Li Tian, Li Yuanba left with Mo Er in his arms.

Li Tian then took Long Yan to a quaint courtyard and arranged for some servants to assist him before leaving.

In the evening, Li Yuanba held a banquet to entertain Long Yan.

From Li Yuanba’s casual remarks, Long Yan learned about Li Yuanba’s situation.

Li Yuanba was born with divine power, and from a young age, he had shown extraordinary talent.

He was once hailed as the top talent of the Taiyan Nine Cities.

However, as time went on, he struggled to cultivate True Qi, until now he had still not been able to do so.

As a result, he had fallen from a genius to a waste, considered the number one piece of trash in Taiyan Nine Cities.

Despite his innate divine power, without being able to cultivate True Qi, he would not achieve much success.

Everyone looked down on him, even his own family ostracized him.

Only Mo Er was good to him.

Therefore, for Mo Er, he was willing to give everything.

“Why do you wear an iron chain?”

Long Yan was curious; the iron chain on Li Yuanba wasn’t a treasure and was merely a common iron chain.

At most, it was a decoration.

Li Yuanba was not a flashy person, but wearing an iron chain was indeed unusual.

“Although this iron chain is ordinary, it does not bind my body, but my heart.

When I cannot cultivate True Qi, I will wear this iron chain.

One day, I will remove it.”

Li Yuanba explained that this iron chain was a way to spur himself on.
