265: Chapter 264 Plotting 265: Chapter 264 Plotting “Little brother, I need some elixirs to treat my injuries, I wonder if you could…?”

Ye Xuan paused, torn.

Asking a junior for elixirs truly embarrassed him, yet with his grave injuries, if he didn’t rely on the spiritual power within the elixirs, his wounds would only worsen.

This also highlighted that while Yang Jian had a true master from the Chan Sect to treat his injuries, Ye Xuan could only rely on himself, showing the benefits of having a Daoist lineage for support.

“Elixirs?”

Li Jiangliu bit his lip with a hint of hesitation on his face.

As an outer disciple of the Jiuhua Immortal Sect, he received three portions of Spiritual Energy Powder each year.

However, with his timid nature, two portions had been taken by his senior brothers and sisters, leaving this last portion as the foundation of his cultivation.

If he gave it to Ye Xuan, he wouldn’t have any Spiritual Energy Powder left to take for the rest of the year.

Experienced and keen-eyed, Ye Xuan immediately saw the boy’s reluctance and shook his head helplessly, knowing it was difficult to ask for such a sacrifice.

“This is Spiritual Energy Powder, and it’s all I have left.

I hope it can help with your injuries.”

Li Jiangliu carefully took out a jade bottle from his chest and passed it to Ye Xuan with a pained expression, clearly showing how precious the powder was to him.

Seeing the discomfort on the boy’s face, Ye Xuan looked at him oddly and then calmly said, “I’m unable to move right now.

Could you please help me take this Spiritual Energy Powder?”

“Ah?”

“Alright, alright.”

Li Jiangliu uncorked the jade bottle and a scent of freshness wafted out.

Though his heart ached, he carefully helped Ye Xuan drink the liquid from the bottle.

“Mmm!”

Ye Xuan grunted as the liquid in his mouth transformed into spiritual energy that spread throughout his limbs and meridians, causing a severe pain in his numb body but also a trace of joy in his eyes.

In fact, this Spiritual Energy Powder was nothing more than a common spiritual medicine which Ye Xuan usually wouldn’t even consider, but with his severe injuries, this small amount of spiritual energy revitalized the life force within his body.

“Little brother, I need to borrow your cultivation!”

Suddenly, Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed, and he sat up on the bed, a glimmer of Spiritual Light forming in his palm.

He pressed it against Li Jiangliu’s lower abdomen, and before the boy could resist, his spiritual energy violently surged into Ye Xuan’s body.

“No…

No!”

As Li Jiangliu felt his cultivation madly rushing into Ye Xuan, his face turned pale, trying to break free from Ye Xuan’s grasp.

But with the spiritual energy from the Spiritual Energy Powder, Ye Xuan executed the Tribulation Immortal Skill.

The boy, although at the Golden Core Stage, how could he resist Ye Xuan?

The boy’s cultivation plummeted from the Golden Core Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage, and then all the way down to the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer.

When he realized this terrifying situation, he was overcome with grief and fainted.

“Open!”

Disregarding the unconscious boy, Ye Xuan pinched a hand seal, and a faint Immortal Light managed to open the Sumeru Space.

Not daring to delay, Ye Xuan quickly took out a large number of Immortal Pills from the Sumeru Space and threw a handful into his mouth.

Boom, boom, boom!

Like the Nine Heavens Thunder exploding, as if ocean waves were hurtling toward him, when the massive amount of Immortal Pills burst open inside Ye Xuan’s body, an unimaginable amount of spiritual energy rapidly repaired his flesh and Primordial Spirit, immersing him in cultivation.

The next morning dawned.

When the young man Li Jiangliu slowly opened his eyes, he blankly scanned his surroundings.

Upon seeing Ye Xuan smiling at him, he instantly leapt to his feet from the ground and even hopped in anger towards Ye Xuan, scolding, “I kindly saved you, not only providing you with Spiritual Energy Powder, but you ungratefully sucked away my cultivation, you…”

“When did I suck away your cultivation?” Ye Xuan calmly asked.

“Huh?”

“My… my cultivation?”

The young man circulated his cultivation technique and was shocked to discover that his Golden Core was still intact and had even progressed from the early stage of the Golden Core to the middle stage.

This revelation caused his expression to undergo a drastic change as he turned sharply to gaze at Ye Xuan, a look of extreme surprise flashing through his eyes.

“How…

how is this possible?”

Li Jiangliu clearly remembered that before he fell unconscious, the person before him had drained his cultivation.

So why did he wake up not only with his cultivation undiminished but also significantly increased?

“Li Jiangliu, come out and get to work already!”

Suddenly, before the young man could voice his questions to Ye Xuan, a shouting voice came from outside the stone house, causing Li Jiangliu’s expression to change.

He hurriedly instructed Ye Xuan, “This is the Jiuhua Immortal Sect.

Your identity is unclear, so do not venture out.

If the people inside discover you, not only will you be in trouble, but I’ll also be implicated.”

After admonishing Ye Xuan many times over, the young man Li Jiangliu quickly adjusted his clothes and pushed open the stone door, quickly walking towards the outside world.

With the young man gone, Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he fell into deep thought.

Last night, he had absorbed the young man’s cultivation and barely managed to open the Sumeru Space, from which he took out and consumed a large number of Immortal Pills.

Although he relied on the power of the Immortal Pills to stabilize his injuries, attaining his peak cultivation would require at least several years.

During this time, should a powerful enemy come, his heavily injured self would surely be in extreme danger.

The Jiuhua Immortal Sect, a mere ordinary sect in the Earth Immortal Realm, could serve as an ideal place for him to hide.

Ye Xuan knew that he and Yang Jian were at a point of irreconcilable differences; Yang Jian would definitely not let him off, and he was even less likely to let Yang Jian go.

In the end, only one of them could live.

The saying goes that caution ensures a long life.

Yang Jian, as the top disciple in the third generation of the Chan Sect and accompanied by twelve Golden Immortals above and many brothers below, is an extraordinary figure between Heaven and Earth.

Now, with severe injuries, Ye Xuan absolutely could not expose himself to the outside world.

If any close friend of Yang Jian were to seek to kill him, with his heavily wounded body, how could he possibly withstand such adversaries?

Moreover, Ye Xuan had a strong premonition that the Jade Emperor, that old dog, would definitely send someone to look for him.

If the Jade Emperor were to learn of his grave condition, he would certainly kick him while he was down.

Endure!

Ye Xuan’s eyes hardened.

He would bide his time and lie low in the Jiuhua Immortal Sect for now.

A mere few years, with his cultivation of the Undying Immortal Scripture, would surely allow him to return to his peak.

Moreover, after the battle with Yang Jian, Ye Xuan felt great pressure.

If it hadn’t been for his trick of severely injuring Yang Jian first, even with the Heavenly Punishment Halberd in hand, he might not have been Yang Jian’s match.

Cultivation, he must improve his cultivation; that was his top priority.

Schemes and tricks were just minor details.

Both he and Yang Jian had been gravely injured this time; next time, the opponent would surely not be so careless.

“Yang Jian, just you wait.

The next time we meet, I will ensure that you have no burial place.”

Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, a cold light flickering in them, as he formulated a detailed plan in his heart, the resolve to kill Yang Jian evident.

First and foremost, Ye Xuan knew what he had to do was heal his injuries.

Only once he fully recovered his peak cultivation could he incrementally execute his plan to enhance it further.
