Chapter 1589: Chapter 1609: Alchemists are One Family_1

By the time Lin Chen and Chu Jiaxue arrived at the battlefield, Yue Muzhen had already plucked Guo Qiuyu out from the cavity rekindling a meteorite crater.

Guo Qiuyu looked pale, his eyes were shut tight, his body was dripping with blood, his robe was tattered, and he had indeed fainted.

In the sky, Xiao Hua’s cape billowed in the wind behind him, revealing a bright red undertone. The red and black interwoven and fluttered, adding a mysterious and powerful aura to him.

"Guo Qiuyu is a powerful fellow cultivator, I had to give it my all and use every move at my disposal, not holding anything back. I am sorry for injuring him, but as long as he rests well, he will be fine ... "

Xiao Hua’s voice was loud and clear, it was hard for anyone to hold a grudge against him, as he was only speaking the truth.

In the collision of top powerhouses, victory or defeat is determined by a hair’s breadth. Who would dare hold back in such circumstances?

Although the disciples of the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace were worried about their Ancestral Master and saddened by their Palace falling out of the Eight Great Forces, they couldn’t blame Xiao Hua.

With Guo Qiuyu in her arms, Yue Muzhen ordered in a deep voice, "Let’s return to the flying boat, everyone, return!"

Guo Qiuyu’s defeat and the loss of the last spot among the Eight Great Forces was a fact. Many disciples couldn’t care less about anything else at the moment. The top priority was to tend to Guo Qiuyu’s injuries.

Everyone turned into golden lights and whizzed past the competition field towards the flying boat of the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace.

Aboard the flying boat, after a detailed examination of Guo Qiuyu, Yue Muzhen’s face became rather grim. When she walked out of the room, she was immediately surrounded by a group of disciples.

"How’s the Ancestral Master?"

"Is the Ancestral Master severely injured?"

Yue Muzhen said gravely, "The Ancestral Master is seriously injured, not only physically but also spiritually. She’s fallen into a deep slumber and can’t wake up for the time being."

The female disciples’ expressions immediately turned grim. After all, the Ancestral Master was like a steady rock to the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace. But now, she was seriously injured and unconscious, her life hanging by a thread. It was as if the sky had collapsed on the Palace.

Another elder in the group suggested, "The Ancestral Master’s injuries are severe. Should we ask for doctors from the other major sects? There are many skillful physicians among them..."

"No!"

Yue Muzhen interrupted her firmly, "The Ten Thousand Flowers Palace is ranked among the Eight Greats, being the last in line. Over time, we have offended many. If someone comes to treat her and finds out about the severity of the Ancestral Master’s injuries and the news gets out, it might bring us a lot of unforeseen trouble."

The elder frowned and asked, "What should we do then?"

Yue Muzhen contemplated for a moment, "Delay for half a day, then formally bid farewell to the Azure Abyss Divine Palace openly. State that the Ancestral Master has woken up but since she’s injured, it would not be convenient for her to stay here for long. Subsequently, we will return to the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace."

As the person in charge of this trip, everyone followed Yue Muzhen’s plan after she made her suggestion.

In a whisper, Chu Jiaxue asked, "Aren’t you a doctor? Can you check on the Ancestral Master’s condition?"

In a quiet response, Lin Chen said, "I can take a look, but my medical skills might not be suitable for immortals, and I can’t guarantee anything."

Chu Jiaxue whispered, "Doctors and alchemists are not mutually exclusive. Why don’t you help and see if there are any elixirs that can stabilize or alleviate her injuries? After all, it will take us at least one month to return to the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace."

Lin Chen nodded, "I have no problem with that."

Chu Jiaxue quietly went to find Yue Muzhen. Shortly after, Yue Muzhen came over, her eyes filled with hope.

"Lin Chen, you are skilled in medicine and you are a Pill King, aren’t you?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes, I was a physician in the Human World, but I can’t assure that my medical abilities would be useful to immortals."

Yue Muzhen dispersed the other disciples of the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace, then turned to Lin Chen and said, "Come with me!"

Upon entering Guo Qiuyu’s room, Yue Muzhen told Lin Chen, "Lin Chen, can you have a look?"

You could see that Yue Muzhen already changed her clothes. She lay quietly on the bed, unconscious. Her complexion was pale, making her look weak.

Without any hesitation, Lin Chen sat by the edge of the bed to conduct his check-up on Guo Qiuyu.

After a thorough examination, Lin Chen’s brow furrowed.

Chu Jiaxue asked softly, "How is she?"

Lin Chen answered, "The elder’s body is indeed severely injured, but that’s not the main reason for her unconsciousness. She is unconscious because her soul has taken a severe blow. Her Primordial Spirit has also suffered a major hit as a result. If we want her to wake up, we must find a way to treat her damaged soul."

Yue Muzhen frowned, "We have plenty of ointments for external injuries, but for treating the soul, we only have one type of medicinal pill: the Yuan Ling Pill..."

Lin Chen shook his head. "Indeed the Yuan Ling Pill treats the soul, and it serves the purpose. But although it might be significantly effective for low-level cultivators, the Elder is at the late-stage of a Celestial Immortal. Her soul is extremely powerful. The effect of the Yuan Ling Pill would akin to a drop in the ocean, it won’t be of much help."

Yue Muzhen was visibly worried, "Is there any pill suitable for the Elder’s condition?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes, the Three-element Soul Stabilizing Pill is highly suitable and very effective. But although I know how to refine the Three-element Soul Stabilizing Pill, I don’t have the right medicinal herbs ..."

Yue Muzhen’s eyes lit up, "Write down the materials you need, and I’ll go to the Azure Abyss Divine Palace to find a solution!"

Lin Chen promptly agreed, "Alright, I’ll write it down now!"
