327: Chapter 151 Pill Fusion_3 327: Chapter 151 Pill Fusion_3 Cao Zhen could clearly sense that Yu Tuoyu’s life was slipping away at a rapid pace.
If this continued, there was no need to take her to Set Soil City; she would likely die within less than a quarter of an hour.
Self-detonating one’s Golden Core was truly a suicidal act.
If one slowly ruined their Golden Core bit by bit, it’s called destroying one’s Cultivation Base, which turns someone into an ordinary mortal.
With slow cultivation, there is a chance to regain the lost powers.
But self-detonating the Golden Core, especially detonating all of one’s cores at once, is too powerful.
It completely destroys a person’s meridians.
This was different from what Xiang Ziyu had done, which involved slowly tearing his meridians and then gradually healing them with the power of Pills.
Yu Tuoyu’s entire meridian system was instantly shattered by the explosion!
Generally speaking, after self-detonating a Golden Core, one could only survive with the help of an unparalleled expert or top-level Pills.
He had no such experts here.
As for making Pills, he could do that, but he had neither the medicinal herbs nor the time.
The only method was…
Cao Zhen quickly released his Heretical Golden Core and pried open Yu Tuoyu’s mouth, stuffing it directly into her mouth.
Yu Tuoyu had saved them all, and he couldn’t just leave her to die.
Now, there was no other way but to use the Heretical Golden Core.
He quickly stimulated the Heretical Golden Core to rotate rapidly within Yu Tuoyu’s body.
In no time, pure energies gushed forth from the Heretical Golden Core, swiftly replenishing the fading life force within Yu Tuoyu.
Yu Tuoyu had self-detonated all ten of her Golden Cores and naturally couldn’t survive.
But now it was as if he had loaned his faux Golden Core to Yu Tuoyu.
The Heretical Golden Core wasn’t a true Golden Core, but it had similarities.
Moreover, a true Golden Core couldn’t be given to someone else to consume in this way.
In this situation, his Heretical Golden Core was immensely useful.
“Let’s leave quickly and head to Set Soil City.”
Cao Zhen glanced around, and with a thought, wrapped Yu Tuoyu entirely in his wide robe, concealing even a strand of her hair.
Yu Tuoyu’s senior had always called her Disciple Brother, which he found puzzling.
However, he later realized that Yu Tuoyu’s senior probably only had a general understanding of the situation and didn’t know that his junior sister had revealed her identity.
That’s why he kept calling her Disciple Brother.
Although he didn’t know why Yu Tuoyu insisted on pretending to be a man, he thought it best to keep her secret for now.
The crowd from the Hundred Peaks Sect nodded and rushed towards Set Soil City at top speed.
After all, Yu Tuoyu had saved them, and the Hundred Peaks Sect always repaid its debts!
Cao Zhen remained silent, rushing through the sky with Yu Tuoyu.
He couldn’t understand one thing; Yu Tuoyu had been gravely injured, and her senior brother was clearly very strong, yet he hadn’t come to her aid, insisting instead that they take her to Set Soil City.
It seemed that the relationship between Yu Tuoyu and her senior brother was somewhat distant.
Gradually, his vision revealed a massive city, and beyond its walls ran a blood-colored river.
There was also a mountain nearby, and at the base of the mountain, there seemed to be a massive tomb, even larger than the whole of Yu Min Town.
Chilling and terrifying demonic Qi emanated from the Blood River and the tomb.
“This…
Blood River feels even more terrifying than the one in Yu Min Town’s Formation!”
“Such thick Demonic Qi, and that distant tomb?”
“What is this place?
Why is it so sinister?”
The others from the Hundred Peaks Sect also felt the waves of Demonic Qi and were astounded.
“How can people live in such a place?”
“This city, such a bustling metropolis.”
“Do you feel it?
The Demonic Qi is thick, but it’s concentrated around the Blood River and that distant tomb.”
“The Demonic Qi has been suppressed.”
“To suppress the Demonic Qi from the Blood River and the tomb requires a tremendous effort.
Why would they do it here and then build a city?”
The Disciples couldn’t understand at all.
As Lan Pili flew, he looked around and pointed towards the distance, “Because the soil here is remarkably fertile.
Look at this soil; it’s obviously different from the soil in other places we’ve passed.
Besides the Blood River, there are two other rivers flowing through.
The land is fertile with abundant water sources, so the grain yield here must be extremely high.
The local residents probably can’t leave this place.”
“Thus, they built a city here and even stationed a powerful expert to suppress this area.
That senior brother of Yu Tuoyu must be the one suppressing it.”
Cao Zhen finally understood why Yu Tuoyu’s senior brother hadn’t left; the person suppressing this place must indeed be Yu Tuoyu’s senior brother.
The group descended far outside the city walls and landed.
According to the rules of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, so many Cultivators could not directly fly over the city.
The residents of Set Soil City, who had evidently seen many Cultivators before, cast curious glances when the group landed but did not otherwise act unusually.
As they stepped into the city, they heard a voice that had reached them earlier.
“Kind visitors, please come to the Immortal Reception House.
Only one person is needed to bring the Disciple Brother to the city’s Tower.”
