After about an hour, Zhang Po's limbs had returned to their full strength, and next was his torso and internal organs.
"I must succeed!" Xiao Yifei encouraged himself in his heart.
Xiao Yifei took a short break and then repeated his previous efforts, transmitting his Qi into Zhang Po's torso again, and this time another problem arose.
Zhang Po's torso and internal organs were the most severely damaged. As Xiao Yifei's Qi entered recklessly, Zhang Po's body could not withstand the amount of Qi Xiao Yifei transmitted, leading to different levels of further damage.
Seeing the adverse situation, Xiao Yifei quickly withdrew his Qi entirely, slightly adjusted it, and switched to a relatively smaller amount, but for Zhang Po's body, such a small quantity was of no real healing effect.
With no other choice, Xiao Yifei had to repeatedly calibrate, trying to find an amount that would not hurt Zhang Po but could heal him. Finally, after multiple attempts, Xiao Yifei found this critical point, and thus, according to this dosage, he slowly transmitted Qi into Zhang Po's body.
Indeed, after Qi transmission at this critical point, Zhang Po's body gradually began to be repaired by the green light. His damaged internal organs started to regain vitality, new flesh grew at the blood hole in his chest, and the artery severed by the "Drilling Armor Corpse" slowly reconnected.
This time took much longer compared to repairing the limbs, lasting through the entire night, even Chang Wei, who was waiting by the side, fell into a slumber, while Xiao Yifei was still tirelessly striving.
I must save Zhang Po and restore this hard-earned bond. Xiao Yifei said to himself in his heart.
At dawn the next day, Chang Wei slowly opened his eyes, and the sight before him made him open his mouth wide, unable to calm down.
The Zhang Po before him no longer had yesterday's sickly demeanor; he seemed reborn, with fresh skin and flesh all over his body. The blood and flesh in his chest disappeared, replaced by the strong, powerful heartbeat. His pale face had now regained its complexion, full of luster, nostrils moving, breathing the air evenly like a child sleeping deeply.
As for Xiao Yifei, he had collapsed at the side, soaked in sweat, eyes tightly shut, sleeping deeply while his mouth corners were raised high, unable to hide his excited expression.
"These two are real monsters!" Chang Wei exclaimed in shock. Silently stepping forward to cover them with blankets, he walked outside the cave himself, facing the dawn, practicing the Chang Family's cultivation breathing technique, absorbing the rising Purple Energy.
After a deep sleep, Xiao Yifei slept soundly. Not only did he save Zhang Po, but he also created a miracle in medical history. With such an achievement, even his grandfather would be proud of him.
Zhang Po was different; he originally dreamed of reporting to King Yan, but the King told him he was still a bit short. At that moment, a pair of large hands descended from the sky and dragged Zhang Po back. This kind of experience of walking close to the ghost gate, Zhang Po never wished to go through a second time in his life.
Both of them remained immersed in their dreams, continuing to sleep through the day and night.
By dawn the next day, Zhang Po finally awoke after a night's recovery.
"Where am I?" He vaguely remembered being pierced through the chest by the "Drilling Armor Corpse" in battle, losing his life.
Zhang Po examined his surroundings, sparse stone walls everywhere, "This Heaven's decor is far too simplistic," Zhang Po thought.
He lowered his head and happened to see Xiao Yifei sleeping peacefully beside him, almost grinning up to his ears, drooling.
"Xiao Yifei? Didn't expect you also died there, but it's good; you and I can be companions on the road to the netherworld." Zhang Po was shocked, then relieved, recalling how formidable the "Drilling Armor Corpse" was, Xiao Yifei surely couldn't withstand him.
Then Zhang Po tried to sit up, but found he was powerless, a wave of hunger struck him, his head spinning instantly.
"Can a dead person also feel hungry?" Zhang Po was puzzled, so he lay back down.
After this commotion, Xiao Yifei also woke from his sleep, rubbing his sleepy eyes, vaguely seeing Zhang Po staring at him, filled with joy: "Zhang Po, you're awake?"
Zhang Po nodded: "Hurry, support me to report; if we're late, I won't catch reincarnation. I'm a bit hungry now, unable to move."
Xiao Yifei was puzzled: "Report? Report what?"
"Report to King Yan, it's obvious you've never died before." Then Zhang Po recalled it was his first time dying too and sheepishly chuckled.
Now Zhang Po was completely stunned, touching his chest. The blood holes pierced by the "Drilling Armor Corpse" had been filled with new flesh. He placed his hand on it, feeling his heart beating firmly.
Then Zhang Po looked within himself and surprisingly discovered that his meridians and bones had also returned to their original state; moreover, their toughness and density had increased.
In short, now Zhang Po apart from his empty stomach, his body functions were even stronger than in his prime.
"Did you do this too?" Zhang Po was almost hysterical, as if the Xiao Yifei before him were a divine being, performing one miracle after another.
Xiao Yifei neither confirmed nor denied.
"How did you do it?" Not only defeating the formidable "Drilling Armor Corpse" and Chang Wutian but also resurrecting him, returning to peak condition in a short time. Zhang Po even suspected for a moment that Xiao Yifei had broken through to the Golden Elixir Realm behind his back.
Xiao Yifei then recounted to Zhang Po how he defeated the "Drilling Armor Corpse" and Chang Wutian, then how he utilized the wood attribute qualities to heal himself and Zhang Po.
Zhang Po had mixed feelings after hearing this, feeling uncomfortable. On one hand, he was grateful to be saved by Xiao Yifei; on the other, he didn't wish to rely on Xiao Yifei's protection. He desired to become strong enough to protect himself and others, not wanting to be a man standing behind others needing protection.
At this moment, Chang Wei came in, handing some food to Xiao Yifei and Zhang Po: "Eat something, you two must be tired."
Seeing Chang Wei, Zhang Po instantly became cautious, scanning around for his treasure sword.
"Don't worry, he's not an enemy. He saved us." Xiao Yifei explained quickly, seeing Zhang Po was ready to fight at the first glance.
Then Xiao Yifei began to relay what Chang Wei had told him to Zhang Po, repeatedly emphasizing that if Chang Wei wanted to harm them, he could simply let them fend for themselves.
Zhang Po naturally trusted Xiao Yifei implicitly. Seeing Xiao Yifei had no more guardedness towards Chang Wei, he felt reassured and took the food offered by Chang Wei, thanking him.
In response, Chang Wei handed back Zhang Po his sword, who fastened it to his waist, asking: "How many days have we stayed in this Chang Family stone cave?"
