Chapter 129: Escaping Confinement
Bing Han Yanyan stood not far from Jiliu Jia, a trace of doubt in her eyes, “What, have you been cured of your cold poison?”
Jiliu Jia shook his head slightly, “Is it that easy? I’ve only temporarily controlled him!”
Bing Han Yanyan’s expression changed with complexity, “So you haven’t cleared the cold poison yet?”
Jiliu Jia flapped his black wings and rushed to Bing Han Yanyan’s side, “I won’t die for now. By the way, have you found the exit?”
“Yes, hurry up and come with me!”
Bing Han Yanyan, walking at high speed ahead, felt conflicted again. Thinking that Jiliu Jia’s cold poison was not completely cleared, she felt some relief, as if she was finding a reason for herself not to kill Jiliu Jia.
One walked, one flew, their speed was very fast. Not far away, Mei Jier’s figure appeared. She looked up slightly at Jiliu Jia, “You’re still alive?”
“Nonsense, I haven’t saved Yan’er yet, how can I die!” He ignored Mei Jier’s cold gaze and came to her side, “Didn’t you find the exit? Where is it?”
To say Mei Jier didn’t want to kill Jiliu Jia was a complete lie, but thinking of Mei Yan’er, she decided to let Jiliu Jia live for a while longer. Once Mei Yan’er’s poison was cured, it would be Jiliu Jia’s death.
With a wave of her sleeve, the wind suddenly roared, and several fire serpents rushed towards the dark mountain wall. After a moment, a light gate appeared. However, this light gate was a bit special, entirely red. Jiliu Jia had never seen a red light gate before.
“This light gate is constantly absorbing the heat from the lava lake, and its temperature is already astonishing!” Mei Jier didn’t know why she explained this, but as soon as the words left her mouth, she changed her tone and continued, “The divine sense seal on this light gate is too strong, neither of us can open it!”
Jiliu Jia’s heart trembled. This was a rare opportunity. “So, if we want to get out, it has to be me? But I have a condition: as long as we get out of here, all previous matters will be written off. What do you think?”
Jiliu Jia’s thoughts were very beautiful, but he was immediately countered by Bing Han Yanyan, “Kid, do you believe I’ll kill you right now and then commit suicide?” Hearing this, Mei Jier’s eyes also became fierce. As a woman, what is more important than her chastity?
Jiliu Jia nodded slightly, and the two women looked at him like hungry wolves. “How about we set a temporary deadline of one year? For this year, you are not allowed to trouble me. After one year, you can do whatever you want!”
An ice shard shot out, and Jiliu Jia dodged it with a flash. A fire serpent then rushed over. This time, Jiliu Jia was not so lucky. He was hit by the fire serpent and slammed heavily into the mountain wall.
“I’m telling you, your life belongs to me, and I can take it whenever I want! Now, you’d better stop talking nonsense and quickly open the light gate to let us out. At the same time, you’d better hope Yan’er is still fine, otherwise, I will absolutely not let you go!”
At this moment, Jiliu Jia suddenly realized a problem, which was the one-year deadline. Xu Shanrou’s remaining divine sense could only wait for a year, and Mei Yan’er’s viper flower poison would act up in a year. Moreover, Jiliu Jia had already been here for a year, which meant that Xu Shanrou and Mei Yan’er might have already passed away!
Realizing this, Jiliu Jia’s heart suddenly trembled. He cursed himself fiercely. The Morning Blue Cold Fire blazed, instantly engulfing the light gate. A green water column shot out, followed by a surge of divine sense.
Mei Jier and Bing Han Yanyan beside him were a little stunned. Why had Jiliu Jia suddenly turned into a hungry wolf, his eyes emitting a terrifying fierce light?
“Did you hit him so hard that he’s stupid?” Bing Han Yanyan asked softly.
Mei Jier shook her head slightly, “Perhaps he suddenly remembered his worries outside!”
The Morning Blue Cold Fire and Spring Source Spirit Water quickly fused, and suddenly a purple wind cloud shot out, crashing heavily onto the light gate. With a bang, the two women instinctively flew back, while Jiliu Jia stood firm. The red light gate before him had turned white, and Jiliu Jia flashed through it.
The light gate opened, and seeing Jiliu Jia’s disappearing figure, the two women naturally followed.
Their figures stabilized, revealing a vast expanse of white snow. They were still in the Tianshan Mountain Range. Breathing in the familiar air, Jiliu Jia’s heart could not calm down. He had to rush to the Mage Alliance immediately; he had to see Xu Shanrou immediately.
With a sweep of his divine sense, the antidote recipe for the viper flower poison appeared in Jiliu Jia’s mind. Various medicinal herbs appeared in his mind. Suddenly, a light gate appeared at his brow center, and the Ghost Tomb Space’s Gate opened. This was the first time Jiliu Jia had triggered the Ghost Tomb Space’s Gate in front of others.
Looking at the two incredibly surprised women, Jiliu Jia said lightly, “Wait for me here for a while, I’ll be back soon!” With that, he quickly stepped into the Ghost Tomb Space, and the light gate disappeared. Jiliu Jia had to go in to ask Yao Xianzi for help in refining pills. Jiliu Jia couldn’t refine high-grade pills himself.
Bing Han Yanyan and Mei Jier were a little dumbfounded at this moment. What was going on? How could there be a light gate at his brow center?
“This kid isn’t going to run away, is he? Should we wait for him?” Bing Han Yanyan asked.
“Give him one day. If he dares to run away, I will definitely make his life worse than death!”
Jiliu Jia entered the Ghost Tomb Space. The three old men were naturally happy, but Jiliu Jia had no intention of talking to them. Instead, he went straight to Yao Xianzi’s room. Yao Xianzi was sitting cross-legged, looking at Jiliu Jia with cold eyes, “What are you doing here?”
Without speaking, two medicinal recipes appeared before Jiliu Jia, along with a pile of medicinal herbs. “I’d like to ask you to help me refine two pills!” One of these pills was the Spirit Recovery Pill for Xu Shanrou, and the other was the antidote for Mei Yan’er’s viper flower poison. In fact, the Spirit Recovery Pill was one pill, and Jiliu Jia had already found all the medicinal herbs for it. The antidote for the viper flower poison was a medicinal pill and a pill; Jiliu Jia did not have the medicinal herbs for this, only the most important ingredient, the Extreme Cold Nine-Colored Spirit Grass.
Yao Xianzi opened her eyes and looked at the pile of medicinal herbs, then at the two recipes, “Your medicinal herbs are not enough, don’t you know?”
“Of course I know, but I think you will have a way!”
At this moment, Yao Xianzi’s eyes were fixed on Jiliu Jia’s face. Jiliu Jia had matured a lot more than the last time he entered the Ghost Tomb Space. Yao Xianzi could faintly feel the masculine aura emanating from him. “I can help you, but you have to give me a stalk of Extreme Cold Nine-Colored Spirit Grass as an exchange!”
Jiliu Jia had previously received nine stalks of Extreme Cold Nine-Colored Spirit Grass. Xu Shanrou needed one, Mei Yan’er needed two, and Bing Han Yanyan no longer needed any. However, Yao Xianzi had used two stalks to save Jiliu Jia. Now, there were four stalks left.
Jiliu Jia was truly not stingy. With a flick of his hand, he threw two stalks of Extreme Cold Nine-Colored Spirit Grass over. “This is all of it, take it all. Now please help me refine the pills!”
After Yao Xianzi put the two stalks of Extreme Cold Nine-Colored Spirit Grass into her ring, she took out the Azure Mysterious Limitless Flower that Jiliu Jia had given her earlier, and the alchemy officially began.
For Yao Xianzi, as long as the pills or medicinal pills were below Top Grade, her success rate was very high. It would just take longer. Fortunately, time in the Ghost Tomb Space passed much slower than in the outside world.
While Yao Xianzi was refining pills, Jiliu Jia was talking with the three old men outside. He also asked when he could help them remove their seals. There were still two years left. If Jiliu Jia did not remove their seals within these two years, they might never be able to come out. However, Jiliu Jia was told that his strength was still not enough, and he must improve his strength faster in the remaining two years.
