Chapter 977: Chapter 977: A Way to Improve Strength
In the upcoming time, Liu Zixuan didn’t continue to tease the two beauties, taking advantage of this time, he directly collaborated with Ye Lianyi to begin treating Xiaoxiao’s special constitution hidden ailments.
The reason for the Ice Skin Jade Bone to use the Youthful Appearance Technique is because during the treatment process, Liu Zixuan needs to channel pure inner strength directly into her meridians.
Although Liu Zixuan also possesses a special constitution, and although his special constitution won’t harm Xiaoxiao, the pure inner strength is not related to the constitution. Hence, during the treatment using pure inner strength, to some extent, it would injure Xiaoxiao’s skin and muscles.
And the Youthful Appearance Technique happens to be a medical skill that restrains this aspect, which can indeed play a great auxiliary role.
After Ye Lianyi exhibited the Youthful Appearance Technique for Xiaoxiao, the originally eighteen or nineteen-year-old Xiaoxiao appeared even more exquisite and transparent. Recalling her little pepper-like personality, she really deeply attracted Liu Zixuan for quite a while.
If it weren’t for curing her hidden ailments, he indeed wanted to tease this little demon girl properly.
Qi sinking into the Dantian, strands of pure inner strength helping Xiaoxiao in Washing Marrow, while protecting the benefits brought by her special constitution, thoroughly eradicating those hidden ailments.
One must know, whether it is the National Doctor treating illnesses or infusing inner strength, it is a task that exhausts mental focus incredibly.
After more than two hours, Liu Zixuan was already drenched in sweat all over, with tiny beads of sweat covering his forehead.
Seeing this scene, Ye Lianyi felt a subtle pang of heartache, even Xiaoxiao, facing him, revealed a look of reluctance, wanting to call a stop.
After a round of treatment, Liu Zixuan withdrew his inner strength and exhaled slowly: "The Ice Skin Jade Bone Constitution indeed proves to be more eerie and mysterious than the Profound Yin Constitution, back then Jingjing rapidly advanced in realm within less than a year because of the Profound Yin Constitution, now she has even reached the Peak of Imperial Realm."
"And Xiaoxiao is currently at the Half-Step Emperor Realm, if she heals well afterwards, probably surpassing me is not even an issue."
"Really!"
Xiaoxiao excitedly grabbed Liu Zixuan’s arm and shook it vigorously twice: "The first thing I’ll do after surpassing you is to beat you up!"
Pffft!
While shaking, Liu Zixuan’s expression changed dramatically, and suddenly his energy and blood surged up, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood directly.
"You... what happened!" Xiaoxiao, who was originally very excited, immediately became deflated, asking with a face full of worry.
Ye Lianyi furrowed her brows and quickly supported Liu Zixuan to the side, a silver needle appeared between her fingers to start treating him.
"I’m fine, just that I haven’t yet recovered from the mental exhaustion." Liu Zixuan waved his hand.
"Does spitting blood endlessly mean no problem?" Ye Lianyi chastised angrily: "Don’t you know, we all rely on you now, if you really collapse, what should we do!"
Liu Zixuan sneered: "Didn’t you just say you wanted to cut ties with me, now why start caring about me?"
"Still joking at a time like this?" Ye Lianyi rolled her eyes at him.
Xiaoxiao innocently opened her mouth: "I really didn’t mean it just now!"
"It’s not related to you, although your constitution’s hidden ailments have been removed, it still needs to be nurtured, don’t stay here any longer, go let your meridians rest, meanwhile also adjust the inner strength I gave you, don’t waste my goodwill." Liu Zixuan smiled.
"Hmph." Xiaoxiao finished speaking, then cast an apologetic glance at Liu Zixuan and Ye Lianyi before returning to her room.
Ye Lianyi withdrew the silver needle, "I have a question to ask you."
"I just sensed you had a question to ask me, that’s why I sent Xiaoxiao away."
Liu Zixuan turned around, leaning against the head of the bed and lit a cigarette: "You want to ask about my body, right?"
"Correct, I originally intended to stabilize your mind, and inadvertently probed into other aspects, but discovered you seem to have a very special power inside your body. This power is particularly violent, yet I also noticed something else suppressing it."
Ye Lianyi said with furrowed brows.
Liu Zixuan nodded, not hiding anything, after all, Ye Lianyi is now practicing the Ghost Doctor Skill and is also the person he loves, he then said: "This is somewhat related to the Seven-Star Tomb in Qian Nan back then."
"You mean the legendary Seven-Star Tomb existing alongside the Ancestral Dragon Vein?" Ye Lianyi asked.
"Yes, back then after entering, I discovered a beam of light, Old Ancestor of the Willow Association said it was the Power of the Dragon Veins, at that time I actually had no concept of the so-called Power of the Dragon Veins, but the Nameless Sword seemed to be bewitched, autonomously contacting that Power of the Dragon Veins."
"It was indeed strange, that Power continuously struck the Nameless Sword, I worried the sword would be destroyed by the Power of the Dragon Veins, so I entered the beam of light together with the Nameless Sword, and then the light turned into two powers respectively into the Nameless Sword and my body."
"Didn’t your master mention back then that your demonization was caused by the Power of the Dragon Veins?" Ye Lianyi asked again.
"Yes, initially unable to control the Power of the Dragon Veins, it even wanted to devour my consciousness to occupy my body, hence the demonization occurrence, but later on I went back to Lingxiu Village and found a way to suppress the Power of the Dragon Veins by chance, then in the Profound Sword Sect I also coincidentally turned the Power of the Dragon Veins in the Nameless Sword into a Sword Spirit, so it was a blessing in disguise!"
Liu Zixuan spread his hands and smiled: "I know you want to ask if the Old Ancestor of the Willow Association knows about this, right!"
"Of course, if he knew about these matters, he would also target you from here in the future," Ye Lianyi said.
"He only knows my Nameless Sword absorbed the Power of the Dragon Veins, but doesn’t know about me, this can indeed be confirmed, however you’ve mentioned it, and indeed precautions are needed, since after all, it was also he who told me about the Power of the Dragon Veins, once discovering the Power of the Dragon Veins brings me such benefits, probably they will seek other Powers of the Dragon Veins too!"
Listening to Liu Zixuan’s words, Ye Lianyi pondered for a moment: "Rather than worrying about whether they will search for it, why don’t we set off early to find it too, I once heard Elder Bai in the Ghost Valley Sect mention, the Power of the Dragon Veins transcends the Power of the Five Elements, obtaining it would easily break through realms."
"Right now we all need to enhance our powers, why not take this as a path to try too."
Liu Zixuan stroked his chin, thinking: "Old Ancestor of the Willow Association once said, there are a total of 26 Dragon Veins, currently the Bright Dragon Vein and Hidden Dragon Vein have merged, leaving 24 Ancestral Dragon Veins, the strongest one among these 24 is the one I went to back then, as for the remaining 23, very few might truly still possess the Power of the Dragon Veins, even if there are, they most likely won’t be stronger than that one!"
"Quite right, I’ve heard about this too, but it is an ultimate way to improve strength, so it is worth a try, moreover you already have the Power of the Dragon Veins and know how to control it, this is the greatest advantage for us." Ye Lianyi suggested.
