Chapter 884: Refining Medicine with the Glassy Bottle, Gaining Her Memories!
Nanli rolled her eyes. How could she not understand Yun Jianchu’s intentions? But with her present, it was not his place to be so presumptuous.
"Master Yun, you stole the Glassy Bottle from Penglai Island, didn’t you? Where is it now?" Nanli asked.
Yun Yubai waited for her to ask this question. He had held on until now, hoping she would return the Glassy Bottle to him. His lips moved weakly, and in a faint voice, he murmured, "Under the tree... the tree..."
Nanli frowned. "Which tree?"
Yun Shen suddenly woke up and exclaimed, "The tree right in front of the house, where the wine was buried?!"
Yun Yubai’s lips curved into a faint, satisfied smile. His eyes showed a sense of relief. This was his final wish, and with that, he had no other regrets. Slowly, his eyes closed, and his breath faded. His body stiffened, but his head did not droop.
Seeing the situation, Nanli quickly took out a leaf of the Grass of Five Flames and drew a talisman to warm Yun Yubai’s heart pulse, keeping him hanging onto a breath.
She commanded, "Yun Shen, dig up the Glassy Bottle from under the tree."
"Master Yun, hold on a little longer. I’ll refine the antidote for you immediately."
Yun Shen and Crimson Glow Peak Master dared not slack off.
Relying on the faint flame in his heart, Yun Yubai’s heart still beat, although his mind was clouded, and he sensed that something was wrong.
Nanli quickly prepared the materials for refining medicine.
Meanwhile, Yun Shen had dug out the wine jar from under the tree.
Crimson Glow Peak Master was stunned. "So, Little Junior Brother had so much wine hidden?"
She knew Little Junior Brother loved alcohol, but she had never expected so much to be buried underground.
Yun Shen didn’t reply. After digging around, he didn’t find the Glassy Bottle right away. He opened a wine jar and continued searching.
Sure enough, he found a Glassy Bottle glowing faintly inside one of the jars, surrounded by a protective aura that had not been tainted by the wine.
"I found it!" Yun Shen carefully held it up.
Nanli’s eyes sharpened as she examined it closely.
Crimson Glow Peak Master asked, "What is inside this? Is it the medicine that can break the Thousand Miles of Ice poison?"
"Sort of," Nanli replied casually and began to perform the ritual to channel the power from the Glassy Bottle into the divine lotus tripod.
At that moment, Yun Yubai suddenly opened his eyes with a great reaction. "No!"
Nanli was sitting at the entrance of the cave, and she looked up just in time to meet Yun Yubai’s urgent gaze.
Eleven Shans also realized Nanli’s intentions.
Only they and their master knew the origins of the Glassy Bottle.
They were all profoundly shocked.
To put it simply, this Glassy Bottle not only contained Nanli’s power from her past life but also her memories.
She had gone to great lengths to come here, yet her goal was to use the power in the Glassy Bottle to refine an antidote?
She hadn’t clarified this at the beginning, probably out of fear that her master would object.
Shan Pei, as the second senior brother, took the lead in asking, "Nanli, aren’t you afraid you’ll regret this in the future?"
Yun Jianchu also shouted, "Are you crazy? He may look a little like me, but you don’t have to sacrifice everything like this! You’re giving your power to someone else! How will your spiritual energy progress? Don’t you want revenge anymore?!"
Nanli lowered her eyes, her hands forming the gestures to channel the energy from the Glassy Bottle. It was originally her power, which she could easily extract and then gather into the divine lotus tripod.
"I’ve done this, so I won’t regret it," she said calmly.
Shan Pei and the others only chanted quietly, "Good, good," and didn’t say anything more. They continued to guard the formation.
Yun Jianchu saw there was still a chance and hurriedly said, "Nanli, wake up! Don’t be foolish!"
Nanli pretended not to hear. She placed the medicinal ingredients into the divine lotus tripod and finally added the remaining Grass of Five Flames to begin the refining process.
Yun Jianchu was nearly beside himself with anger. He knew that nothing he said would work now, but he still muttered, trying to calm himself.
Being inside Nanli’s body was truly a stroke of bad luck for him.
Yun Yubai also realized that once the power had been added to the medicine, it would no longer be appropriate to return it to Nanli’s body. He didn’t want to waste Nanli’s effort, so he closed his eyes, focusing on the flame inside him to hold on.
Even so, the frost on his body didn’t diminish. It continued to spread from his feet to his body, then to his neck, eventually covering his face and head.
Crimson Glow Peak Master, watching from the distance, felt anxious. But the distance was too far for her to send her spiritual energy to help.
She gritted her teeth and made a decision. She would go into the cave.
"Don’t go in!" Nanli shouted.
The divine lotus tripod exuded an increasingly intense heat, causing her face to flush red with beads of sweat.
"I can’t just watch Little Junior Brother like this..."
"The antidote can’t be shared with anyone else," Nanli said. "Wait a little longer. I will save him."
Yun Shen knew Nanli never spoke lightly, so he hurriedly grabbed Crimson Glow Peak Master’s sleeve and said, "Senior Uncle, stay calm. Let’s wait a bit longer."
But the flames in the cave had gone out.
Yun Yubai’s breath had completely vanished in an instant.
The frost covered his entire body, turning him into an ice statue, even more severe than before.
And the ice continued to spread toward the cave entrance!
At this point, Yun Shen could no longer afford to feel sorrow. He quickly shouted, "The Ninth Princess, leave now!"
Remaining at the entrance would surely lead to the poison affecting them.
Nanli didn’t pay attention to him. Sweat was pouring down her face, her loose hair sticking to her temples.
Yun Shen and Crimson Glow Peak Master shouted, but neither of them moved. Instead, they stood on either side, trying to resist the cold energy with their weak powers.
The chill swept toward them.
A cold wind suddenly rushed in.
At the critical moment when the cold wave was about to hit, Nanli leapt into the air, holding the divine lotus tripod, charging straight into the cave.
The powerful heat from the flames countered the cold, and the wind inside the cave became fiercer!
Frost fell.
Nanli raised her other hand, channeling the fiery aura to strike the ice, breaking it open and landing on Yun Yubai’s chest.
Yun Yubai’s body shook.
But the fiery aura only melted the frost on his body, unable to flow into him to melt the ice inside.
Nanli furrowed her brow, feeling a sense of discomfort. The rapid change from heat to cold made her feel unwell, and her stomach ached slightly.
"Quick, withdraw your hand!" Yun Jianchu shouted. "His heart is frozen! He’s beyond saving! If you persist, you’ll only harm yourself and the child!"
Nanli saw that the fiery aura remained outside, still unable to flow into Yun Yubai’s body and melt the ice, and a sense of sorrow filled her.
But then, a sudden flash of insight hit her. She realized that Yun Yubai’s soul had been frozen inside. Without hesitation, she formed a summoning gesture and pressed it to his forehead.
"Immortal soul, awaken swiftly, heed my call!"
A faint blue light erupted from his forehead.
Yun Yubai’s frozen soul began to show signs of awakening. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
She could hear a voice calling to him.
"Wake up... wake up!"
The soul began to stir.
At the same time, the fiery aura finally began to flow into Yun Yubai’s body.
From his heart to his Dantian, and then through his meridians, the warmth enveloped his body. The cold poison gradually faded away.
And after the power of the Glassy Bottle was refined, although it had cured his cold poison, Yun Yubai also gained a fragment of Nanli’s past life memories.
