This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered-Chapter 879 - 678: I Really Owe Your Taoist Sect!_2

"But thankfully we have this pair of Penglai Immortal Cicadas, otherwise, with this kid Liang Yi's scant Vitality, it would be impossible for him to hold on until you sent him to Medicine Valley."

Under Su Youyi's astonished gaze, the palm-sized elder Gu Sheng before her began to grow larger, until he resumed his normal stature.

Earlier resembling a child, Gu Sheng now appeared to be in his early thirties, tall in stature, with waist-length white hair and a solemn and stern expression.

Gu Sheng's Spiritual Power surged through his body, a radiant flower formed by metaphysical Law slowly bloomed in the Void, emitting a luminous glow that enveloped Liang Yi entirely. A faint, brisk floral scent emerged and surrounded Liang Yi, visibly entering his mouth and nose.

Principle Domain·Shou Tianqi!

After Gu Sheng expanded his Domain, the Penglai Immortal Cicadas that had been surrounding Liang Yi mourned simultaneously, releasing the last of their Vitality, merging into twin lights, and entering Liang Yi's Divine Soul.

"Penglai Immortal Cicada, chirping ensures one does not die. As the Vitality of a gravely wounded person gradually revives, the Immortal Cicada sacrifices its Life Origin to protect the wounded person's Divine Soul." Gu Sheng was amazed; although he had seen descriptions of this Divine Artifact in texts, it was his first time seeing it in person.

"But since the Penglai Immortal Cicadas have assessed that Liang Yi's condition is now controlled, it should be fine. The tricky part now is how to drive out this Origin Power that constantly devours his Vitality!"

Gu Sheng looked with some headache at the cluster of black mist attached to Liang Yi's heart.

While the injuries on other parts of Liang Yi's body were severe, none were fatal; only this black mist posed a life-threatening danger to Liang Yi.

This black mist wasn't something Gu Sheng encountered for the first time; he had seen it last on Chen Hua.

And that time, Chen Hua was injured by the Abyss Will!

"Was it the Abyss Will that struck?"

Su Youyi bit her lip, angry, with both fists clenched.

"Judging from Liang Yi's injuries, he should have been confronting other Abyss Cultivators earlier; possibly those Abyss Envoys." Gu Sheng speculated while preparing an Array and various Spirit Pills: "Originally, Liang Yi almost escaped, but at that moment, the Abyss Will chose to strike when Liang Yi's vigilance was at its lowest."

"However, it underestimated Liang Yi's power; it intended a fatal strike, but didn't anticipate Liang Yi's rapid progress. He's incredibly lucky and resilient at the same time."

"So how is Senior Brother now..." Su Youyi looked at her senior brother who seemed to be in a dream-like state, feeling somewhat relieved yet still worried.

"His Vitality has been sustained. This kid's Disruption Domain is really formidable; even the Origin Power of the Abyss Will can be forcibly suppressed, otherwise, even I wouldn't have a solution."

Having temporarily dealt with everything, Gu Sheng wiped the sweat off his forehead, took a deep breath, and gazed at the unconscious Liang Yi.

"Thank you, Elder Gu Sheng!" Su Youyi wanted to bow solemnly before Gu Sheng.

A gentle breeze lifted Su Youyi to her feet.

"Liang Yi went into the Abyss alone for our sake; everything done for him is our duty. You should go find Chen Hua; if this Abyss Origin Power isn't removed, I can't completely heal Liang Yi."

Gu Sheng waved his hand with his back to Su Youyi, smiling lightly.

"Alright! I entrust Elder Gu Sheng with this!"

Su Youyi stored this kindness deeply in her heart, understanding the urgency of the matter. After saying farewell, she once more turned into a sword light heading to the Refining sect, intending to notify her master.

"Alas... truly indebted to your Taoist Sect."

Gu Sheng tossed his hair, his body "bang" transforming back into the adorable form of a palm-sized youngster, sitting on air, arms crossed, with a helpless gaze fixed on Liang Yi.

He recalled the last time he'd been disrupted during Alchemy by Chen Hua barging in, and this time too, Su Youyi had smashed through his alchemy room door, once again to save the same person.

"You have a good master, and a good junior sister, cherish them well!"

Gu Sheng maintained the Principle Domain while starting to mix various Spirit Pills. Although he couldn't eliminate that black mist, as long as he was present, Liang Yi would never step through the Ghost Gate!

Before long, all top Mystical Mechanism Cultivators knew that Liang Yi had returned alive from the Abyss but was severely injured, currently unconscious in Medicine Valley.

"Indeed, it mirrors the injuries I once suffered..."

Chen Hua withdrew his right hand, speaking gravely.

Having received Su Youyi's message immediately, he'd rushed over in anxious haste. Now, after observation, he felt more troubled by the complexity of the matter.

"My wounds back then were treated directly by the Heavenly Dao; it was only after the Abyss Origin was extracted that I could slowly heal..."

"What about the Heavenly Dao? Why is there no response this time?"

Gu Sheng glanced up at the sky, puzzled.

This made no sense; Liang Yi's contributions to Mystical Mechanism fully matched or surpassed Chen Hua, so why would the Heavenly Dao only focus on Chen Hua while ignoring Liang Yi?

Su Youyi clutched the Lovesick tightly; she'd sensed something amiss at the Abyss Gate, but the Mystical Mechanism Heavenly Dao hadn't intervened until now, indicating certain issues!

"Where is Liang Yi?"

An orange silhouette rushed urgently through the door, appearing anxiously before Liang Yi's bed; the newcomer was Grandpa Ju.

"Sister Su, how is Brother Liang Yi?"

A petite figure followed Grandpa Ju inside, looking worriedly at Su Youyi, clinging to her sleeve and asking anxiously.

"Rest assured, we're working on solutions..."

Su Youyi slightly crouched down, resting her hand on Yue Bai's shoulder, her mouth curving into a reassuring smile.

Yue Bai's body was still trembling, which for a Ninth Realm Perfect State Cultivator showed an extremely unstable Mental State.

Yue Bai had just finished a retreat, and Su Youyi didn't wish to see Yue Bai's cultivation over the past days undermined by such a Mental State.

"Really?" Yue Bai's eyes held hope.

No one was more concerned about Brother Liang Yi than Sister Su; if Sister Su said there was a way, there would surely be one!

"Yes, believe in us!"

Su Youyi embraced Yue Bai, muttering softly, comforting Yue Bai and also herself.

"Do you understand the Heavenly Dao?" Chen Hua asked Grandpa Ju beside the bed.

Gazing at the unconscious Liang Yi, he felt worse than when he'd endured grave injuries himself.

"I'm not very clear; I can only vaguely sense the Heavenly Dao is somewhat weakened, likely having suffered against the Abyss Will, which might explain overlooking Liang Yi."

Grandpa Ju shook his head initially, then hesitated, mentioning his thoughts.

"Tsk..."

Chen Hua felt irritable; this Heavenly Dao seemed unreliable...

"To remove the Tenth Realm's power, it can only be done with Tenth Realm power; I have a way..."

Grandpa Ju glanced at the unconscious Liang Yi, who instinctively utilized his Disruption Domain to suppress the Abyss Origin, speaking suddenly.

"What way?"

Everyone looked delighted, turning their eyes to Grandpa Ju.

"It's up to you."

Grandpa Ju lifted a paw, pointing at Su Youyi.

"How do I do it? Tell me!"

Without hesitation, Su Youyi stepped beside Grandpa Ju, her gaze firm, demanding details.

"Use your River of Sword Intent to connect and control the Cliff Sword Intent within Liang Yi, coupled with my help, employing the Cliff Sword Intent created from Abyss Authority to sever this cluster of Abyss Origin!" Grandpa Ju spoke resolutely.

Grandpa Ju had considered it long; Su Youyi's River of Sword Intent contained all Sword Cultivator intents throughout history, so Liang Yi's Cliff Sword Intent must be included.

Convinced Su Youyi's River of Sword Intent was superior to the Cliff Sword Intent, Grandpa Ju proposed this strategy!
