Eternal Sacred King

2357 You're Worthy?



The surroundings of Yang Ruoxu's cave abode were still dilapidated and overgrown with weeds, as though it had been abandoned for a long time.

Su Zimo went forward and knocked gently on the door.

"No visitors allowed!"

Before long, a slightly tender voice sounded from within, clearly enraged. "Go away, go away!"

"It's me."

Su Zimo said in a deep voice.

The cave abode was silent for a moment before the sound of clothes fluttering could be heard. The door to the cave abode opened and a child's face appeared—it was Liu Ping.

"Senior Brother Su!"

Liu Ping's eyes lit up as he shouted.

Su Zimo smiled and nodded. As he walked in, he asked, "How's Senior Brother Yang?"

At the mention of Yang Ruoxu, Liu Ping's face darkened once more. "Senior Brother Yang's Essence Spirit is getting weaker and he's been asleep for three days without waking up. I don't think he can hold on for much longer."

Thereafter, he blinked again. "If not for Senior Sister Scarlet Rainbow's meticulous care during this period of time, Senior Brother Yang might have died a long time ago."

Liu Ping's words seemed to be implying something. However, Su Zimo was worried about Yang Ruoxu and did not think too much about it.

Before long, the two of them arrived before Yang Ruoxu's bed. Princess Scarlet Rainbow and a boy were guarding him. She held Yang Ruoxu's hand with a worried expression.

When she saw Su Zimo return, Princess Scarlet Rainbow merely forced a smile and nodded.

Yang Ruoxu's face was pale and he was unconscious with a weak lifeforce.

Without hesitation, Su Zimo took out the Saraca Fruit from his storage bag and came before Yang Ruoxu's couch. He placed the Saraca Fruit beside Yang Ruoxu's mouth and scratched it gently with his fingernails.

A crack appeared on the Saraca Fruit and a rich fruit juice with a unique fragrance flowed slowly into Yang Ruoxu's mouth.

"This is…"

Princess Scarlet Rainbow and the other two had strange expressions.

Although the three of them knew that Su Zimo was heading to Avici to look for the Saraca Fruit, they did not have much hope.

"This is the Saraca Fruit."

Su Zimo said and frowned slightly when he saw Yang Ruoxu's expression.

Yang Ruoxu had already consumed the entire Saraca Fruit. However, his condition showed no signs of improvement.

Actually, Su Zimo did not know much about the Saraca Fruit.

Legend has it that the Saraca Fruit could heal Essence Spirits that were severely injured.

However, this Saraca Fruit had been buried in Avici for so many years after all. Nobody knew if it still had the effect of healing the Essence Spirit.

"What's going on? Even the Saraca Fruit can't do it?"

Princess Scarlet Rainbow was flustered and her voice trembled.

Su Zimo released his spirit consciousness and scanned Yang Ruoxu's body carefully, saying in a low voice, "Senior Brother Yang's Essence Spirit has been injured for too long and his body is severely injured as well. Even after he consumes the Saraca Fruit, his body won't be able to refine and absorb the power within."

"We can inject Heaven and Earth Essence Qi into his body to help him absorb it!"

Princess Scarlet Rainbow's reaction was extremely fast and she thought of this method right away.

Su Zimo nodded.

Princess Scarlet Rainbow circulated Heaven and Earth Essence Qi and channeled it carefully into Yang Ruoxu's body.

However, after a while, Yang Ruoxu's condition did not show any signs of improvement.

"W-What should we do?"

Princess Scarlet Rainbow was at a loss.

"Let me give it a try."

Su Zimo extended his finger and touched Yang Ruoxu's glabella gently, injecting a stream of pure and rich Essence Qi!

Before long, Yang Ruoxu's face regained some color and the lifeforce in his body gradually stabilized.

"It's working!"

Princess Scarlet was delighted.

When Su Zimo saw that Yang Ruoxu's breathing was gradually steady and strong, he relaxed and heaved a sigh of relief.

He was the Green Lotus True Body and the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi in his body was far purer and more condensed than Princess Scarlet Rainbow.

Furthermore, the Creation Green Lotus was a god of the Flora race to begin with and could naturally absorb and refine the Saraca Fruit with ease.

Although Yang Ruoxu's condition had stabilized, he showed no signs of waking up. Su Zimo did not stop what he was doing and continued to channel Heaven and Earth Essence Qi to help Yang Ruoxu absorb the Saraca Fruit.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

Right then, a violent knock sounded outside the cave abode.

To be precise, it no longer seemed like he was knocking on the door—he was practically ramming down the door!

Due to the tremendous impact outside, the entire cave abode trembled slightly and dust fell from above.

"It must be those people again!"

The boy said hatefully.

"Fang Qingyun?"

Su Zimo asked with a frown.

Liu Ping said, "Fang Qingyun has not shown himself the entire time. However, during this period of time, almost all the people who came to cause trouble were his followers!"

"These people are always looking for all sorts of excuses to visit Senior Brother Yang. Actually, they have evil intentions!"

Dong! Dong! Dong!

The sound of the door slamming sounded once more, intensifying.

Su Zimo was still helping Yang Ruoxu refine the Saraca Fruit and could not leave for the time being. Liu Ping stood up and said, "I'll chase them away."

Liu Ping and Yang Ruoxu's boy headed outside.

"Go away, our young master rejects all guests!"

The boy shouted.

"Is this how Senior Brother Yang treats his fellow sect mates? If you don't open the door, don't blame me for destroying this cave abode!"

A voice traveled into the cave abode.

"Chang Qi, how dare you barge into Senior Brother Yang's cave abode without his permission!" Liu Ping recognized the person's voice and hollered.

"Fufu."

Chang Qi chuckled. "Senior Brother Yang is severely injured. We came to visit but you guys refused to let us see him. Now, I suspect that Senior Brother Yang has already been killed by you guys!"

"For the sake of Senior Brother Yang's safety, the sect won't hold me accountable even if I barge into the cave abode."

"You!"

The boy was furious.

Liu Ping said in a deep voice, "We will definitely not open the cave abode. You guys can head back!"

"Then don't blame me for being rude!"

Chang Qi said coldly.

Immediately after, a tremendous force struck the door of the cave abode.

Boom!

With a loud bang, the door to the cave abode shattered and scattered onto the ground, creating dust clouds.

Chang Qi brought a few inner sect disciples and a hundred servants of the academy with him. All of them had hostile expressions as they barged in!

"How dare you!"

Liu Ping was shocked and furious as he clenched his fists with widened eyes.

"You're not allowed to go over!"

The boy extended his arms and stopped Chang Qi and the others as well.

"You guys are so nervous. Seems like Yang Ruoxu isn't dead yet?"

Chang Qi raised his brow slightly and said leisurely, "However, even if he's not dead, he's still a cripple. It's fine if you don't let me in. Hand Yang Ruoxu's Righteousness Sword over to me."

"On what grounds?!"

The boy questioned loudly.

"Yang Ruoxu is already a cripple and is not worthy of using the Righteousness Sword!"

Chang Qi declared proudly, "I've also cultivated the Righteousness Sutra. In the academy, I'm the only one qualified to wield the Righteousness Sword!"

The boy sneered with disdain.

Chang Qi narrowed his gaze and said coldly, "Slap him!"

"How dare a kid like you mock disciples of the academy!"

Immediately, more than ten servants stood out and cursed. They swarmed forward and restrained the boy, giving him a few tight slaps on the face.

Instantly, the boy's cheeks swelled.

However, he did not give in and merely glared at Chang Qi fiercely.

Just as Liu Ping was about to move, Chang Qi released a tremendous spirit consciousness pressure and suppressed Liu Ping on the spot!

Liu Ping was only a Grade 1 Heaven Immortal while Chang Qi was a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal.

The difference between them was too great and Liu Ping could not defend against it at all.

"Let's go!"

Chang Qi waved his hand and prepared to lead his men in.

Right then, a voice sounded from the cave abode.

"Someone like you is worthy of using the Righteousness Sword?"

A green-robed cultivator walked over from the cave abode.
