Hearing that the headmaster's situation wasn't optimistic, the Elders of Mount Lao didn't panic. After all, they were mentally prepared after the Nuwa Stone was stolen.
Liu Zongcheng was the first to step forward. He bowed to me and said, "Mister Zhou, please help to save my master."
If I could save him, I would have done so without them even asking.
However, the situation was complicated. I could save the headmaster's injuries, but I couldn't do anything about his damaged Fate Palace.
After explaining the situation, the Elders looked at each other and asked if there was a way to repair his Fate Palace.
I wasn't a doctor, and it was the first time I had seen a Fate Palace damaged. How could I have a way to save him?
Hearing my answer, the Elders looked dispirited. But then, Liu Zongcheng suddenly lifted his head and told me that he had seen a record of this situation in the library of Mount Lao.
My eyes brightened after hearing his words.
Although Mount Lao wasn't as strong as Mount Longhu, it had several thousand years of Daoist heritage. It must be extraordinary for it to be able to stand until now.
I immediately asked the other Elders to search the library, leaving only Liu Zongcheng behind.
He wanted to go with me, but I stopped him. "Your Senior Brothers will be at ease if you stay here."
Liu Zongcheng was almost fifty years old, so he understood what I meant. However, he was embarrassed and couldn't maintain his composure.
I waved my hand and said with a smile, "It's okay. After all, I broke into the mountain gate last time and had an argument with your master. It's normal for them to hold a grudge against me.
At this moment, your master is seriously injured. If it were me, I would also be worried about handing him over to an outsider. "
He cupped his hands at me and apologized, "Mister Zhou is magnanimous. My Senior Brothers and Junior Brothers are gauging the heart of a gentleman with the yardstick of a villain."
I waved my hand and didn't linger on this topic. Instead, I gestured for him to help the Headmaster's body up.
I didn't know how long it would take for the others to find the information they wanted. Since the Life Palace of Mount Lao's Sect Master was damaged, he couldn't use his Yang God power to protect his body. After a long time, his body would naturally weaken. Even if his Fate Palace was repaired, his body would be damaged.
So, I have to protect his body first.
After Liu Zongcheng supported the Headmaster's body, I sat down cross-legged and adjusted my breathing. I sent the strange spiritual power into the Headmaster's body to repair his damaged meridians.
About a quarter of an hour later, his bodily functions gradually recovered, and the Circulatory Cycle Revolution continued.
Although there are other injuries, as long as he can repair his Fate Palace, he can easily recover by himself. There is no need for me to take care of all of them.
After everything was done, I saw that the others had yet to return, but I didn't immediately stop. Instead, I began to ponder. Since the strange spirit power in my body could heal injuries, would it also have an effect on my Fate Palaces?
Theoretically speaking, it seemed possible, so I decided to take advantage of this opportunity to experiment.
Of course, the Fate Palace was different, so I didn't tell Liu Zongcheng, who was next to me. Instead, I silently sent my spiritual power into the Sect Leader's Fate Palace.
The Fate Palace was not only the place where the Yang Spirit resided, but it was also the foundation of life. Thus, I focused my mind to the extreme and carefully controlled the spiritual power. I was afraid that if I wasn't careful, I would make the Laoshan Sect Leader's situation even worse.
However, I didn't expect that the spiritual energy that I had been carefully controlling would instantly break free of my control after reaching his Life Palace and head straight for the Sect Master's Yang Spirit.
In the next second, the Sect Leader's Yang Spirit, which was originally extremely depressed, suddenly became excited and constantly trembled.
However, the spiritual power didn't enter the Yang Spirit's body, but it quickly circled around it.
Every time it circled around, the trembling Yang Spirit recovered a bit.
After dozens of seconds, the originally shriveled Yang Spirit completely swelled up. It looked like it had recovered at least fifty percent!
However, at this time, the spiritual power seemed to have run out and stopped circling. After a while, it disappeared from the Fate Palace.
Although the Yang Spirit had only recovered by fifty percent, it could already exert its effects. Not long after, the Sect Leader's broken Fate Palace began to repair itself. Not long after, it had recovered by more than half.
I was extremely shocked. Originally, I was just trying it out casually. I didn't expect that the spiritual power would not only have an effect, but that the effect was almost heaven-defying.
At this time, I became more and more curious about the spiritual power in my body.
The description of the Death Scripture did not mention this strange spiritual power. I originally speculated that it was naturally obtained after the Ascension, and that it was one of the Destiny Divine Abilities of the Ascension. However, this speculation was overturned. Other Ascension Practitioners did not have the ability to easily repair their Fate Palaces, so this spiritual power was definitely not ordinary. It was most likely related to my strange bloodline.
As he was thinking, the few elders who had left earlier hurriedly returned. Their faces were filled with worry.
Seeing this, Liu Zongcheng's face also darkened. Without waiting for me to speak, he took the initiative to ask if they had found a solution.
The Elders sighed together. The person walking at the front replied, "We found a method, a method recorded in the ancient records. However, this method is not something that can be done by ordinary people … It's not much different from not having it at all."
Liu Zongcheng frowned. He didn't understand, so he continued to ask what the method was.
The Elders told Liu Zongcheng, "According to the ancient records of Mount Lao, if you want to repair your Fate Palace, you need the power of a God.
At this time, the Laoshan Sect Master is fine. He only needs to rest and wait for his Yang Spirit to gradually recover. Once his Fate Palace is repaired, he will wake up, and I won't need to take care of him anymore. "
Hearing their words, my interest was piqued. I put the Laoshan Sect Master down, then stood up, cupped my hands, and asked the Elders where they had found this information in the ancient records.
When the Elders saw me cupping my hands, they hurriedly returned the greeting, then handed the ancient book to me. "Mister Zhou, this is it."
I took it and looked at it. It was a yellow thread-bound booklet named "Strange Records." It recorded many unorthodox knowledge of the cultivation world, and the last part mentioned the Fate Palace. The original words were: "If the Fate Palace is damaged, it will lead to death. Only the power of a God can save it."
There were many explanations for "the power of a God," but the book also mentioned it in other places, so I was sure that it was a method of Immortals.
Although the Mountain and Sea Realm had opened, there had been no news of Immortals appearing. Therefore, after reading this record, not only were they not happy, they were even more depressed.
At the same time, my mood was extremely strange.
According to the ancient records, the strange spiritual power in my body was able to repair the Laoshan Sect Master's Fate Palace. It should be the power of a God, and in other words, the method of an Immortal. However, I only have a Rising Dawn cultivation base, and I'm still far from Rising Dawn Ascension. How could I have this kind of power?
Moreover, I've tried many times, but this power can only be used to heal injuries. It can't be used to fight enemies. It's clearly far from the so-called "Immortal methods."
Although I still had my suspicions, there was one thing I could confirm. This power wasn't something I had obtained through cultivation, but rather something that had awakened in my bloodline. I didn't know if it was left behind by Emperor Ku or Monster Emperor Jun.
In any case, I had some understanding of this strange power, so this trip wasn't in vain.
As for the Laoshan Sect Elders, I naturally wouldn't tell them the truth. An ordinary man's wealth is his own ruin. This strange power far exceeded my current cultivation base. If word of this got out, people like Celestial Master Zhang and President Li, who wanted to ascend, would do anything to obtain this power from me and use it to study the Immortal Dao.
After thinking about it for a moment, I casually made up a story and returned the book to the Laoshan Sect Elders. "The power of a God can't be found, but I just took the risk to investigate the Sect Master's Fate Palace. I discovered that before the Sect Master passed out, he had left behind some power in his Yang Divinity.
After I activated that power, his Yang Divinity gradually awakened. Now, as long as I can increase the power of his Yang Divinity, he can repair his Fate Palace on his own. The situation isn't as bad as I thought. "
As soon as I said this, everyone was stunned at first, but they immediately became happy. They all bowed to me and said, "Thank you, Mister Zhou. If we can save the Sect Master this time, our Laoshan Sect will remember Mister Zhou's great kindness!"
I didn't care about their beautiful words and estimated the time it would take for the Laoshan Sect Master to repair his Fate Palace. Then, I told everyone that it would take several days to strengthen the Yang Divinity. I needed absolute peace during these days, so I asked them to protect me and guard against the monsters.
The elders, who previously held a grudge against me, no longer had any disagreements and immediately nodded in agreement. They then asked me if I had any other requests. After knowing that I had no other requests, they immediately withdrew from the palace gates and stood guard outside.
What I said just now was just to deal with them. In fact, I didn't need to do anything about the Laoshan Sect Master. I just needed to wait for him to wake up.
The Fate Palace and the Yang Divinity were the most important things in a cultivator's life. External stimulation was far less effective than self-recovery, so I didn't need to do anything.
As for why I asked them to leave, the Laoshan Sect Master needed several days to wake up, and I couldn't leave during this time, so I could only stay here.
Secondly, after what had just happened, I was extremely curious about the strange spirit power in my body. I couldn't wait to study it.
After everyone left, I set up a witchcraft barrier around us just in case. Then, I tried to use the strange spirit power in my body to carefully observe and study it.
In the blink of an eye, several days had passed. Just as I had instructed, no one had come to disturb me during these past few days. However, even after meticulously studying it, I was still unable to grasp the mysteries of this spiritual power. It should be because my cultivation was too low.
I was mentally prepared for this, so I wasn't too disappointed.
At noon on the fourth day, the sleeping Laoshan Sect Master finally moved. He opened his eyes and sat up on the bed.
