Chapter 25: Master-Grade Spirit Gathering Elixir is Useful?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Su Yin might not be able to cultivate, but that didn’t mean that he was stupid.
The Secluded Immortal Abode was located in the depths of a mountain forest and there were barely any people here. It was such a remote place, and yet there was suddenly a child lying on the ground right in front of his residence.
He even had wounds all over his body, and he stank so much to the point that even a fool would know that something was wrong!
After pondering about it, he didn’t dare to go over and get close to the child. He decided to have the donkey kick it a few times first as a safety measure.
If there was a problem, he would have more time to escape.
Before he was capable enough, he must keep a low-profile…
Otherwise, he might die without knowing why.
Hearing the order, the donkey was naturally happy to comply. He just found it strange that the fellow was at the door. Shouldn’t the parrot and the tortoise feeding him medicine at this point in time?
Of course, the donkey would never admit that it knew the child.
If he did, then the fact that they could talk would be exposed.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The donkey jumped and let off a flurry of kicks all while happily letting out a series of cries.
When Su Yin saw that the child didn’t move after being kicked around by the donkey, but only twitched and vomited out more blood…
He finally relaxed.
It seemed that even if the child may not be an ordinary person, he didn’t have the strength to fight.
“You can stop now…”
He waved his hand and walked over to take a look.
At this time, the Nirvana Demon King was curled up into a ball.
There were hoof prints all over his body, and he looked unspeakably miserable.
“Heehaw!”
Retracting his outstretched hooves and standing still, the donkey stared at the Demon King with huge eyes. If he dared to attack Master, it would make sure to put its hoof right through his skull.
Not knowing what it was thinking, Su Yin came up to them and put his fingers lightly on the neck of the Nirvana Demon King. Then, he heaved a sigh of relief, “There is still a pulse, he’s still alive…”
“Now’s the time!”
Seeing the youth approach, the Nirvana Demon King knew that the opportunity had finally arrived. Unable to wait any longer, he flipped his palm lightly. Pure demonic aura rushed straight towards the youth.
This was his innate demonic aura.
Once it entered a person, that person’s life and death would be under his control!
He could kill that person in a flash.
When that happened… these three monsters would not dare to be so disobedient anymore.
Just as the demonic aura was about to enter the youth, the Nirvana Demon King’s sight grew fuzzy.
With a “boom”, he seemed to see the image of a gigantic sage in front of him.
The scene was immediately followed by an overwhelming pressure that bore down on him as if a mountain had fallen upon him, or the sky had broken down and collapsed onto him.
His innate demonic aura was dissipated in an instant by this force. Then, his core trembled and his physical body was hit by a force unlike any that had struck him before.
All the strength in his body melted like snow.
“…”
His sight grew dark.
The Nirvana Demon King started to panic.
The reason why he survived so far was because of his core demonic aura. As long as his core was intact, it would be difficult for anyone to end his life. But now, more than half of his core demonic aura was depleted in an instant.
In other words, this time—he had suffered more damage than the previous times when he had been kicked by the donkey, burnt, and fed poison by those monsters!
In a single breath, half of his lifespan was depleted.
What exactly happened?
Could it be that this youth had a protective talisman from a Sage on his body?
If not for that, then why did this happen?
Fresh blood spurted out of his mouth.
Unable to hold on anymore, the Demon King’s sight went black and he fainted once more.
“Why is he vomiting blood again?”
Su Yin who stood beside him hurriedly stepped away to avoid the burst of blood.
He was shocked.
He was just trying to feel his pulse.
He wasn’t trying to switch on a fountain. Don’t be so scary, okay?
People were scary indeed.
Fortunately, he had seen a lot. If not for the fact that he had lived with literal spirits back in the Forbidden Grounds, he would’ve been terrified by the sight of this child spitting out blood.
“This guy is seriously injured…”
“Big Black, you carry him back into the yard and put him in the guest room to recuperate.”
“I’ll see if I can treat him…”
Su Yin felt pity for the young boy when he saw how badly injured he was. The boy was just a child, yet someone was actually so vicious as to injure him like this?
Who was so ruthless that they can do something as atrocious as this?
Whoever did this—was not human!
“Heehaw!”
The donkey nodded as a response. It bit the child’s belt with its teeth and lifted him up.
“Also, give him a wash before you put him on the bed. He’s too dirty…” Su Yin continued.
The donkey nodded.
It entered the yard, and when it was sure that Su Yin was not paying attention. The donkey opened its mouth and threw the child into the pond. It washed him several times like a mop, and after confirming that he no longer stank.
The donkey hung him up above a bonfire to dry. Afterwards, it finally put him in a bed inside a random guest room in the mansion.
When it was done, the donkey saw the parrot and the old tortoise walking over to him with worry.
“How did Master find out?”
“This fellow was lying outside the door somehow! Master asked me to bring him in!”
“Master is as kind as ever…”
“He probably escaped while we were gathering medicine, damn it! We were so kind to save him, and he actually left without saying anything! He’s so shameless!”
“I agree…”
“He doesn’t know how to be grateful at all! By the way, did you get exposed in front of Master?”
“Of course, not! I pretended not to know him and gave him a few vicious kicks!”
“That’s good then. We have to keep a lower profile… Of course, we have to be extremely careful. If that fellow attempts to attack Master, kill him immediately!”
“Well, he’s very weak. Furthermore, he is injured now, so he shouldn’t be able to hurt anyone!”
The three beasts talked for a while. It was only when they confirmed that the child was in a coma did they finally relaxed and left the room.
They went out and gathered medicine for him, but he left them without even saying goodbye.
That was so rude!
The three felt angry just thinking about it.
…
Ignoring the seriously injured child, Su Yin went straight back to his room.
Su Yin ignored the seriously injured child for now as he went straight back to his room.
As a kind, caring and nice young man who had been educated in a socialist system. He might be empathetic, but he would not randomly show pity to anyone. To put it bluntly, this fellow appeared from out of nowhere, and Su Yin was still wary of him.
In the end, Su Yin decided to wait it out and see.
The most urgent thing for him right now was to see if he could cultivate.
With cultivation, he didn’t have to be afraid of anything.
He sat quietly on the bed before he took out the Master-Grade Spirit Gathering Elixir…
Opening it up, he emptied the contents in his mouth and swallowed.
When the elixir entered his abdomen, it immediately turned into pure spiritual aura as it started to spread all over his body.
It was expensive, but there was a good reason for it. This elixir was far more powerful than the Pure-Grade one. Furthermore, the amount of stored spiritual aura was five times more than the previous one!
If the Pure-Grade pill contained only one unit of spiritual aura, this one has five units.
When the spiritual aura entered his abdominal cavity, his body rejected it like what it did previously. The pores all over his body opened once more.
Pu! Pu! Pu!
The spiritual aura gushed out. However, both the speed at which the spiritual aura was expelled and the duration of the rejection had substantially slowed down.
“It seems that the purer the spiritual aura, the better the effect…”
Even though he didn’t manage to retain any of the spiritual aura from the elixir like before, he managed to confirm one of his theories. The purer the spiritual aura was, the less violent his body’s reaction to it would be.
Perhaps, if they were purer than this…
He might be able to absorb them into his body and finally start his cultivation journey.
The effect of taking all nine elixirs at once was the same as taking one.
They were similarly rejected by his body. However, his body’s reaction was obviously less intense than when he took those elixirs of lower quality.
“Tomorrow, I’ll go ask if there are purer… more powerful elixirs.”
With a smile, Su Yin walked out of the room.
He then remembered the child that he had saved. “I wonder if the kid is dead. Although I have never studied medicine, I have learned sow care and treatment. What works for one may work for others. Perhaps I can try…”
Turning around, he walked towards the child’s room.
Will the method used to cure pigs be effective when used on the child?
Su Yin felt anticipation in his heart.
Anyway, the child was of unknown origin, and he didn’t even know if he was a good person or not. Before they confirmed that, he might as well get some practice.
