Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

Chapter 304: 304 Earth Yang Exorcism Array

”Earth Rank Meridian Array...”

As the current Sect Leader of Jade Pot Sect, Yu Shu’s perception was naturally much more insightful than the other Great Elders, and as the person involved, he had noticed this fact the moment the Meridian Array was about to form.

At this moment, Yu Shu didn’t have time to wonder why Yun Xiao, who came from a minor family, even knew about the Earth Rank Meridian Array; instead, he was caught in a moment of indecision.

This indecision stemmed from the expectations in Yun Xiao’s heart. Yu Shu knew how strong the backlash of the Earth Rank Meridian Array was and knew that if he did not withdraw in time, allowing that Earth Power to blast on him, it would at least cause him significant damage to his cultivation.

But Yu Shu was even clearer that if he withdrew now, the trace of Earth Power he had just triggered would vanish, and the power of the Earth Rank Meridian Array would not be able to be fully unleashed.

The most important aspect of the Earth Rank Meridian Array is to trigger that trace of Earth Power to affect the human meridians and flesh, and without the Earth Power, what would be the point?

It can be said that this trace of Earth Power was the source of Yu Shu’s indecision. By giving up, he could completely protect himself, but Li Shan might no longer be brought back from the brink of death.

If he didn’t give up, it was uncertain whether Li Shan could be saved, but Yu Shu himself would definitely suffer the backlash of the Earth Power. In such a situation, if it were an ordinary person, the choice would not be difficult at all.

However, as the Sect Leader of a sect, when Yu Shu’s gaze shifted to the red-faced Li Shan, the indecision in his heart suddenly disappeared, replaced by resoluteness.

”As the Sect Leader of Jade Pot Sect, taking a risk is only natural!”

A deep shout echoed from the depths of Yu Shu’s heart; the next moment, Yun Xiao sensed the trace of Earth Power seemed to have become a bit denser at that moment.

With Yun Xiao’s insight, he naturally knew that Yu Shu had made the right decision and felt extremely relieved. This Sect Leader, after all, did not have the indifference of Poison Vein Masters like Fu Du.

”Hmph!”

However, just as Yun Xiao’s thoughts were crossing his mind, the Sect Leader of the Jade Pot Sect stumbled, grunted in his mouth, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, evidently suffering from a severe internal injury.

Regardless of how advanced Yu Shu’s Meridian Qi Cultivation was, even reaching the pinnacle on the Hidden Dragon Continent, he ultimately could not control that trace of Earth Power, and injury was inevitable under its violent assault.

But fortunately, as the Sect Leader of the Jade Pot Sect, he had his own life-saving means. The onslaught of the Earth Power did not immediately kill him but instead sparked a trace of defiance in him.

Yu Shu even had an unusual idea that his long-unbroken Earth Rank Realm could hopefully sense that power through the impact of the Earth Power this time.

Although the impact of the Earth Power was extremely violent, making it hard for Yu Shu to bear, such an opportunity is too rare to find. On the Hidden Dragon Continent, who else could truly trigger the Earth Power?

In Yu Shu’s view, what he was lacking was probably just that bit of sensing, hence he tried his best to sense the fluctuations of the Earth Power. This subtle influence might turn his misfortune into a blessing.

Sweat continuously dripped from Yu Shu’s forehead, and his body kept bearing the impact of the Earth Power. However, when he withstood the shock, some changes occurred to Li Shan, who was on the bed.

”Everyone, look, the red marks on Elder Li Shan’s limbs are gone!”

Elder Su He, with sharp eyes, noticed Li Shan’s changes immediately and shouted excitedly. This was indeed a feat that the six Great Elders including the Sect Leader couldn’t achieve even in a month’s effort.

On the exposed limbs of Li Shan, the originally blazing red marks resembling burning charcoal, namely the deadly poison of Seven Evil Poisonous Flame, were fading visibly under some special power.

Aside from the marks on the hands and feet, the ruddiness on his chest, abdomen, and face seemed to fade slower, but at least there was no complete stillness as before, which made Lu Zhan and Su He extremely excited.

On the other hand, the expressions of the elders from the Poison Vein faction were much more complicated. After all, even they had not seen such a Fire Attribute deadly poison as the Seven Evil Poisonous Flame.

Both the Medical Pulse and Poison Vein factions were helpless against the Seven Evil Poisonous Flame, yet now a young disciple who had joined the Inner Sect less than a year ago had cured it.

Since Yun Xiao could neutralize such a potent poison, the Poison Vein Masters like Fu Du had every reason to believe that on the entire Hidden Dragon Continent, probably no poison could be considered significant in the eyes of this youngster.

Using poison was the forte of Poison Vein Masters, but now this deadly toxin seemed trivial in some people’s eyes, which in a sense, diminished their deterrence.

Imagine if one day Fu Du and Mo Li used a deadly poison against an enemy, and that enemy sought help from the Jade Pot Sect. The old fellows from the Medical Pulse would not refuse treatment based on their faces, and with the good relationship between Yun Xiao and Lu Zhan, this really upset them.

But at this very moment, Fu Du and the others could not possibly voice any disturbance as Li Shan had reached a crucial point — it was a matter of life and death.

”Pfft!”

Just as everyone was anxious, a tremendous force suddenly burst from the ground, causing Yu Shu’s complexion to drastically change as he spat out a mouthful of crimson blood, and his fingers detached from Li Shan’s Baihui acupoint at the top of his head.

”Sect Leader, are you alright?”

Seeing this, Lu Zhan quickly rushed to support him, but despite his anxious words, he saw that the Sect Leader, though weakened, had a face full of excitement, seemingly unaffected by his serious injury.

”An Earth Rank Low Level Meridian Array, I actually managed to successfully deploy an Earth Rank Low Level Meridian Array!”

Yu Shu looked at Li Shan’s body where energy was rampaging, his excitement growing on his face, and his murmurs dispelled Lu Zhan’s last doubt.

At this moment, it was clear that Yu Shu had suffered a strong backlash from the Earth Rank Low Level Meridian Array, but he could sense clearly that this was the final frenzy of the Earth Rank Low Level Meridian Array, and after this, Li Shan would be pulled back from the brink of death.

Indeed, that was the case. At this moment, Yun Xiao did not attend to the severely injured Yu Shu, because he knew that despite the Sect Leader’s severe injuries, his life was not in danger.

Yun Xiao’s gaze was fixed unblinkingly on Li Shan’s face and chest, knowing clearly that whether the tremendous Earth Power could suppress the Seven Evil Poisonous Flame was dependent on this final trembling.

On Li Shan’s body, the Earth Power was rampant, and no one dared to approach carelessly. Under some guidance of the array, the Earth Power gathered in Li Shan’s chest and abdomen, neutralizing the fire poison of the Seven Evil Poisonous Flame.

Time quickly passed, about thirty minutes, and once everything had settled, everyone in the room clearly saw that the fire marks on Li Shan’s face and chest, although not completely gone, were also significantly less intense than before.

Seeing this scene, everyone moved their gaze from Li Shan and eventually fixed it on the young man in simple clothing. For some reason, even though Li Shan’s residual poison hadn’t been completely removed, they still felt an inexplicable confidence, as if Li Shan’s life had already been saved.

”Yun Xiao, what is the name of this Earth Rank Meridian Array?”

Sect Leader Yu Shu, enduring severe internal injuries, with a flicker of excitement in his eyes, asked immediately, a question many Elders present wanted to ask.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Yun Xiao did not keep them guessing and softly responded: ”Earth Rank Low Level Meridian Array: Earth Yang Exorcism Array!”

”Earth Yang Exorcism Array!”

Including Yu Shu, all Elders of the Jade Pot Sect murmured repeatedly, silently memorizing the name of this Earth Rank Array in their hearts.

Or rather in their minds, they all made up their minds to embed this array knowledge deeply after this event; perhaps there might be a time when it could be useful.

Of course, among the people present, except for Yu Shu, the highest was only at the Spiritual Rank Intermediate Meridian Refining level. If they recklessly attempted to deploy this Earth Rank Low Level Meridian Array, the consequences would be extremely tragic.

Just kidding, even the Sect Leader Yu Shu ended up in such a state, let alone them. Looking at Yu Shu’s injuries, it wouldn’t heal in less than ten days or half a month.

”Alright, everyone!”

Seeing the calm in the room, Yun Xiao did not elaborate further. After glancing over Li Shan, he continued: ”Although the Earth Yang Exorcism Array temporarily controlled the severe poison affecting Elder Li Shan, the Seven Evil Poisonous Flame is not so simple, and it could resurge at any time.”

”What should we do?”

Hearing Yun Xiao’s words, Mo Qing’s expression turned anxious again. She had a close relationship with Elder Li Shan and naturally did not want to see him succumb to the Seven Evil Poisonous Flame.

”Well, we might need the help of the few Elders here!”

Yun Xiao turned back to look at Mo Qing, then glanced over the Elders, and finally settled his gaze on the Great Elder Lu Zhan, perhaps in his heart, the most trustworthy person was still this compassionate Great Elder.

Of course, thanks to Yu Shu’s actions just now, Yun Xiao had gained a deep understanding of this Sect Leader of the Jade Pot Sect, knowing that he wasn’t at all like Fu Du and the others.

However, at this moment, since Yu Shu was severely injured by Earth Power, Yun Xiao couldn’t entrust the next tasks to someone so grievously wounded, so he directly overlooked this Sect Leader.
