Chapter 555: Retreat
After a difficult and cautious journey, they finally reached the final secret chamber. Taixuzi pressed the trigger again, and the door slowly swung open. A rich, mellow medicinal aroma filled the air. Star Blade peered closely and saw that the chamber was filled with water, with the Shennong Stone quietly submerged.
This Shennong Stone, taller than an adult, is a warm, milky white, like a bright moon, emitting a soft and mysterious glow. The water soaking the Shennong Stone is a emerald green medicinal liquid, which slowly flows in through a bamboo tube at the top of the chamber and then flows out through a small opening on the surface, forming a wonderful cycle.
Xingchen Dao immediately grasped Taixu Valley's ingenious plan. They were using the liquid to fully dissolve the Shennong Stone's medicinal properties, which would then flow out along with the liquid. If an injured person were to soak in the liquid, their injuries would heal quickly. This would fully utilize the Shennong Stone's powerful healing power while concealing its presence. It was a win-win situation, showcasing Taixu Valley's wisdom and prudence.
"This move by Taixu Valley is truly brilliant," Xingchen Dao exclaimed, his eyes filled with admiration and admiration. He was deeply impressed by Taixu Valley's clever arrangement, which not only demonstrated Taixu Valley's cherishment and protection of the Shennong Stone, but also demonstrated their efforts and wisdom in protecting humanity.
Taixuzi smiled slightly, with a humble expression on his face, and said, "Thank you for your praise, senior. Although the healing power contained in these medicinal liquids is far less than that of the Shennong Stone itself, it is much better than exposing the Shennong Stone and causing unnecessary trouble. Moreover, the healing power of this medicinal liquid that comes from the Shennong Stone is hundreds of times better than using other ordinary medicines." There was a hint of pride in his voice, and he was proud that Taixu Valley was able to make good use of the Shennong Stone.
Xingchendao walked to the edge of the pool, bent down, and carefully observed the Shennong Stone and the medicinal liquid. He could clearly feel the powerful and mysterious healing power contained in the Shennong Stone, and this power made him full of confidence in Lin Feng's recovery.
"You know how to use it. You can make use of the Shennong Stone without exposing it." Xingchendao's voice echoed in this enclosed space, with a hint of appreciation. He raised his head slightly and looked at Taixuzi standing beside him, his eyes revealing recognition.
Taixuzi hurriedly bowed, with a humble smile on his face, and said respectfully: "Thank you for your praise, senior. This is just the wisdom left by the ancestors in the valley. I am just following the old ways." His tone was full of respect for his ancestors, and he also felt a little proud for receiving the praise from Xingchen Dao.
Xingchen Dao said nothing more. He bent his knees slightly, exerted force with his legs, and leaped like a flash of black lightning, landing steadily on the Shennong Stone. His movements were light and agile, without a single splash. Then, he slowly sat down cross-legged, facing Taixuzi, his expression becoming particularly solemn.
"You leave first. When I recover, I will wake Lin Feng." Xingchen Dao's voice was low and powerful, as if announcing an important mission. His eyes revealed determination and confidence, as if he had already seen the scene after Lin Feng woke up.
Taixuzi opened his mouth, wanting to ask something else, such as how exactly the Star Blade would be restored with the help of the Shennong Stone, and how Lin Feng would be awakened. But when he saw that Star Blade had slowly closed his eyes, his aura gradually becoming calm and steady, entering a state of selfless cultivation, the words on his lips were swallowed back. Helplessly, Taixuzi could only sigh softly, turn around, and slowly walk towards the secret room's door.
He walked lightly, fearing to disturb Star Blade's practice. As he reached the door, he turned back and cast a deep glance at Star Blade, seated on the Shennong Stone. Its figure appeared mysterious and solemn under the soft glow. Then, he reached out and gently closed the door to the secret room. With a soft creak, the room was enveloped in darkness, leaving only Star Blade and Shennong Stone as companions.
Xingchendao sat on the Shennong Stone, quietly taking in the rich healing power surrounding him. The power emanating from the Shennong Stone trickled down like a gentle stream, slowly seeping into his body. This power not only miraculously healed his physical injuries, but also felt as if his soul were being gently caressed by a pair of gentle hands.
He could clearly feel the wounds deep within his soul, etched by time and battle, gradually healing. While the soul's healing process was slow, it was still much faster than natural healing. Furthermore, thanks to the infusion of the medicinal liquid, the air was filled with subtle healing powers, the result of the liquid evaporating and blending with the air.
Star Blade took a deep breath, drawing the healing energy that drifted through the air into his body. His breathing was steady and rhythmic, and with each inhale, it seemed as if he were drawing the entire chamber's healing energy into his body. This energy gathered and flowed through his body, like joyful streams, flowing to every corner of his body.
As time passed, Lin Feng's body underwent remarkable changes under this powerful healing force. His once pale complexion gradually regained its rosy complexion, and the hidden ailments in his body, both old injuries and underlying illnesses, slowly disappeared. His muscles grew firmer, and his bones seemed to be revitalized. Every inch of his skin greedily absorbed the healing power.
Lin Feng's soul gradually recovered within this warm and gentle power. As if drawn by a mysterious force, the shattered fragments of his memory began to piece themselves together. Deep within his consciousness, the once blurry images became increasingly clear, and those forgotten people and events gradually emerged.
Immersed in this wondrous process of cultivation, the outside world seemed to have nothing to do with him. The chamber was utterly silent, with only the gentle rustle of the flowing medicinal liquid and the steady breathing of Star Blade. The green medicinal liquid shimmered faintly in the darkness, like countless dancing stars, contrasting with the soft glow emanating from the Shennong Stone, creating a dreamlike scene.
Time passed unnoticed. Star Blade didn't know how much time had passed. He only focused on absorbing the healing power of the Shennong Stone and transforming it into energy to repair Lin Feng's body and soul. He had only one belief in his heart, which was to make Lin Feng recover as soon as possible, so that he could return to this world and shoulder his mission.
