By the fire at night.

Duanmu Xi was grilling a stick of mushrooms while Ying was drooling at the mushrooms without blinking.

“Is there anything in the Hantian Continent that can repair the meridians?”

“Mistress, please wait a minute. I’ll look it up in Encyclopedia of Treasures.”

Ying swallowed her saliva, lowered her head, took the book Encyclopedia of Treasures as big as a nail from her pocket, and started to look it up.

“Found it. The book says that the spiritual fruits of various properties can repair the meridians,” Ying said with excitement.

Duanmu Xi’s eyes glistened and she immediately said, “Does the book tell where we can find the spiritual fruits?”

“Wait. Let me see.”

Ying buried her head into the book again. After a while, Ying raised her head with a disappointed look and shook her head at Duanmu Xi.

“Not mentioned in the book. Besides, it says that the spiritual fruit of each property is guarded by the ancient mythical creature of that property, so you may not be able to get it even if you find it.”

The mythical creature was the highest-grade spiritual beast in the Hantian Continent. Putting aside the fact that her mistress was a total wreck now, even if she came here in her original body, given her cultivation level of the Omni Spiritual King, she might not be able to defeat the mythical creature.

There was a glint of disappointment in Duanmu Xi’s eyes but she didn’t want to give up.

“Is there anything else that can repair the meridians?”

“Yes, the meridian-regulating pill. No matter how seriously the meridians are broken, they can be repaired by the meridian-regulating pill. However, the meridian-regulating pill is a kind of elixir of heavenly grade. Only the heavenly-grade refining pharmacist can make it, but according to Encyclopedia of Treasures, no heavenly-grade refining pharmacist has appeared in the Hantian Continent over the more than 1,000 years.”

Duanmu Xi’s eyes went dim.

No refining pharmacist of heavenly grade had appeared over the past 1,000 years. Wasn’t it even more difficult to find the elixir of a heavenly grade than ascending the heaven?

Did she have to give up like this?

No, she wouldn’t. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, she would never give up.

Since there was no meridian-regulating pill, she would look for the spiritual fruits of all properties—wind, wood, water, fire, earth, ice and thunder. Getting one of them could help her fix her meridians.

She would never give up!

Now, in a cave not far away from Duanmu Xi, a handsome young man in black was regulating his breath with his eyes closed, seemingly trying to suppress something.

With his face ghastly pale, the young man had sweat all over his forehead. His distorted face made him look rather painful.

The moon outside the cave gradually became round.

“Ah…”

After a painful scream, the young man’s body was slowly changing.

The shrill scream appeared rather abrupt in the quiet darkness. Duanmu Xi heard the scream and suddenly came to her senses.

“What sound is that? How come there is another human being on the island?”

“That shouldn’t happen. I don’t feel any Qi of mankind.”

Eating the grilled mushrooms, Ying said with a frown.

“Let’s go and take a look.”

Duanmu Xi put down the grilled mushrooms and trotted towards the direction of the cave.

“Mistress, wait…”

Ying directly stuffed the grilled mushrooms into her mouth. Throwing food away was not Ying’s style.
