"Stay calm! Stay calm!"

Qingqiu Mingli turned around with a face full of black lines, her fists clenched so tightly that there were even signs of distortion from the powerful grip next to her fists.

Although Liang Yi had spoken in an extremely low voice, with the knowledge of the Eighth Realm cultivator within a certain range, he indeed heard everything. Those words regarding age had fallen into Qingqiu Mingli's ears without missing a single one.

After hearing it, Zhou Yuqing blinked her eyes, raised her guard, fearing that Liang Yi, this stinky kid, would be severely injured by Qingqiu Mingli in a fit of rage.

Daring to speak about a female cultivator's age like that, even Zhou Yuqing couldn't help but feel indignant.

However, it was fortunate that Qingqiu Mingli had died once before and had become indifferent to everything. Liang Yi had no malicious intent, and she managed to calm herself down after her chest heaved violently a few times.

On the other side, Liang Yi shivered from the cold, feeling inexplicably as if he had just walked through the Ghost Gate.

"Why did you say that Senior Qingqiu has a death wish?" In her panic, Su Youyi did not notice Liang Yi's odd condition, but was rather puzzled by her senior brother's recent words.

"With Senior Qingqiu's strength, even if the dissolution of the soul is irreversible, it shouldn't happen so quickly. It would have been so only if she herself had actively facilitated this process."

Liang Yi regained his senses and began to share his analysis with his junior sister.

Su Youyi tilted her head and thought about it. Considering Senior Qingqiu's strength, the speed of the dissolution did seem a bit fast, as if it were done on purpose.

"So you're saying, senior brother..."

Su Youyi was not dull; by this point, she had also figured out the reasons. To be resurrected and find that everyone from her sect and all her beloved disciples had turned to dust, this extreme loneliness and desolation could easily crush one's will to live.

After being awakened by the Abyss Intent, Senior Qingqiu might have already had such intentions, but the arrival of the Abyss filled her heart with anger.

Although she later shattered the conspiracy of the Abyss, Senior Qingqiu did not wish to be involved anymore and let her soul dissipate on its own.

Perhaps for her, the only concern was how Yue Bai, who was still very weak, could restore the former glory of Qingqiu.

But when she saw that a strand of her beloved disciple's True Spirit was still there, it might have caused a slight stir in the once still heart of the predecessor.

The senior brother took this opportunity to bring out the Immortal Pill to help Senior Qingqiu gain a chance to live, just like Elder Xuanzhou from the Purple Cloud Sect.

Once they fully recover their powers, having a physical body or not wouldn't make much difference for either Elder Xuanzhou or Senior Qingqiu. It's even quite simple to regenerate a body from the Divine Soul with certain heaven and earth treasures.

Liang Yi spread his hands, neither admitting nor denying.

Although the true situation was indeed similar to the junior sister's guess, Liang Yi was actually considering strengthening the sect's power.

Now that the Abyss was stirring, a battle with the Mystical Mechanism Continent was inevitable sooner or later. Players had not fully developed yet, and the Purple Cloud Sect only had Elder Zi as an Eighth Realm cultivator.

To have the power to protect oneself under such circumstances, relying solely on Elder Zi was inadequate. Therefore, upon understanding Qingqiu Mingli's situation, he started planning how to get her on board with his own 'pirate ship'.

And when the Blood Demon found a bit of Qingqiu's True Spirit, which Feng Luoshu had secretly hidden inside the Immortal Pill, he knew this was an excellent opportunity!

But for now, he couldn't yet extend an invitation; he had to give Senior Qingqiu some time to consider. Being too eager would make his intentions too obvious.

"However, since Feng Luoshu could seal Qingqiu's True Spirit inside, why not keep his own there as well?" Su Youyi was somewhat puzzled and full of questions.

"Do you think the Immortal Pill is some kind of life-saving Divine Artifact, meow?"

Old Master Orange licked his paw and explained to Su Youyi.

"The Immortal Pill was not originally meant to store True Spirit, meow. That Feng Luoshu could do this probably also had the help of the Blood Demon inside, meow. If two True Spirits were sent in together, I guess both would dissipate together inside the Immortal Pill, meow."

"So that's how it is."

Although Grandpa Ju didn't go into much detail, Su Youyi still somewhat understood.

As a divine artifact, it's natural that Feng Luo Shu couldn't make the Godly Tree recognize him as its master. It wouldn't mind if an outsider like him inserted a little something into its body. But, if one were to overstep their boundaries, then the outcome would be unpredictable.

Even without self-awareness, such divine artifacts have instincts.

"Even if Luo Shu's True Spirit remains inside the Godly Tree, it is useless. The moment he sacrificed himself to me, he severed the possibility of reincarnation." The Blood Demon, after a short period of adjustment, was now speaking very fluently, no longer showing the earlier choppy speech.

However, it still seemed a bit downcast, giving off an air of nonchalance that didn't at all resemble what you'd expect from a peerless fierce creature at the pinnacle of the Eighth Realm.

And this ultimate laziness made both Liang Yi and Su Youyi think involuntarily of a certain Chief of the Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool, who was surnamed 'guest'. If these two were put together, wouldn't the air of idleness reach the skies?

"May I know how this junior should address the senior?"

Liang Yi bowed respectfully and asked. Regardless of anything else, the Blood Demon did save their lives, so the proper courtesies must be observed.

"Blood Book."

The Blood Demon simply uttered two words, then extended four tentacles slowly towards Liang Yi, Su Youyi, Yue Bai, and Zhou Zuixi.

"Stretch out your wrists..."

"Oh, right."

Though confused, Liang Yi felt safe since the Qingqiu senior and Zhou Yuqing were there, so there shouldn't be any problems.

The others exchanged glances and followed Liang Yi's lead, stretching out their wrists as well.

Under Liang Yi's gaze, the cold and smooth tentacles of the Blood Book gently wound around his wrist, and in an instant, a blood-red glow burst forth.

A warm sensation spread from his wrist, swiftly traveling through his body with the blood, cozy and comforting.

When Liang Yi looked down again, he saw a miniaturized version of the Blood Demon's cute tattoo on his wrist, which then vanished after the warmth disappeared, lying in wait for the moment it was needed.

[Blood Spirit]: A Blood Spirit formed by the Blood Demon Blood Book over a thousand years, able to heal a deathly injury once.

"!!"

Liang Yi saw the sudden appearance of the Blood Spirit notification on the panel, his eyes widening in disbelief.

Although he guessed that the senior Blood Book must have granted them something, he didn't expect it to be an extra life - such a grand gesture is incredible!

As the others felt the warmth, they also received a message in their minds, an explanation from the Blood Demon about the Blood Spirit.

Everyone present was of not insignificant status, all were experienced and knowledgeable, having seen countless rare treasures, but such a powerful artifact was still extraordinarily valuable to them!

You see, similar magical treasures or Spirit Pills that can save a life were all part of the cherished reserves of Super Forces.

For example, the [Xuanyi Life Spirit Jade Token] from the Immortal Dynasty of Xuanzhou that could replace one's death once, or the [Tai Xu Beichen Immortal Pill] from Medicine Valley that could revive someone as long as death occurred within 24 hours and the body was intact with the Divine Soul not dispersed.

And this Blood Spirit given by the Blood Demon was indeed a top-tier treasure that stood equal to the other two, sufficient to incite fervor from anyone.

"Senior, this is..."

Though Liang Yi was deeply stirred, he believed in not accepting favors he hadn't earned; he completely failed to understand the Blood Demon's intentions.
