"The little sapling was not about to snooze either, and quickly set off green tendrils wrapping around Lin Ning'er's arm."
After a round of investigation, the little sapling scrunched up his brow, "The frost poison has pretty much embedded itself in the bones, it is tough to completely cure with pills alone..."
"Is there a way?"
Lin Chen anxiously inquired.
"I can only help her relieve it for now, but it's like just scratching the surface, to eliminate this frost poison properly, it needs pure flame power.."
The little sapling's expression turned grave, although he usually smirks around, when it comes to serious stuff, he's dead serious.
"Let's alleviate it first, even if alleviating is good enough, I'll take my sister to see a high-level doctor! I swear!"
Lin Chen's pupils flashed through a trace of nervousness.
Previously, it was always medication that relieves it.
That pill is called Three Fire Pill, which houses three kinds of fire qi, can suppress the frost poison.
"Okay."
The little sapling controlled vine tendrils to pierce Lin Ning'er's skin, then, an icy cold aura erupted from within, with visible icy blue light floating in it, making people shiver after touching it.
In the end, all the cold gas were absorbed into the vines.
In less than half an hour, the little sapling sucked up all the cold gas in Lin Ning'er's body, and he finally heaved a sigh of relief.
"Hiccup."
The little sapling made a satisfying belch, releasing a bone-chilling cold breath from his mouth.
Lin Ning'er's face looked a lot rosier, after a moment, she slowly opened her eyes, "Little Chen..."
"Sister, you don't need to fret, I'll take you to get treated!"
Lin Chen hastily comforted.
Lin Ning'er's lips curled up at the corners, speaking softly, "Little Chen, you don't need to shoulder too much burden for me, I also don't want to be a burden on Little Chen."
"Absolutely not, I got a buddy that's a lifesaver of doctors, I'm taking Sister to see a doc this time! As soon as Sister gets well, she can start practicing, by then, I'll tutor Sister daily!"
Lin Chen was trying to console her, whispering sweet nothings.
Unusually, Lin Ning'er fell asleep shortly.
Lin Chen reached out to grasp the little sapling, headed out of the cave.
"How is it looking with my sister's situation?"
His arms shook slightly, and his voice took on a shaky tone when he spoke.
Facing enemies that are several times their size, Lin Chen would never fear, even heavily injured, he wouldn't bat an eyelash!
But in the face of sister's frost poison, he also seemed incredibly helpless.
"I can temporarily suck out the cold gas for her, but I still can't totally eradicate the frost poison, I mentioned before, only the purest flame power can remove the frost poison... Among these nearby powers, doesn't any sect excel in flame power?"
The little sapling inquired.
"Yeah..."
Lin Chen clenched his fist slightly, "Lifting Fire Sect! Right!"
Li Fire Sect outshines Feng Sword Sect and is firmly the boss of the five kingdoms!
The reigning supreme sect, Li Fire Sect is the absolute champ!
However, the recruiting criteria for the Li Fire Sect are as tricky as a Rubik's Cube.
You gotta have a Quadrate or higher phantom beast, and it has to be the fiery type.
Only then, can you even dream about entering the Li Fire Sect to become a master.
Of course, there are exceptions to this rule.
If your talent is as potent as the magical beans from Alibaba, the Li Fire Sect will drop all those pesky rules to let you in!
Back in the day, Lin Chen, although he was the emperor of talent in Great Cang Kingdom, still didn't catch the eye of the Li Fire Sect.
That's how tough it is to get in there, folks.
"Alright, when we're done here, we're hitting the road to Li Fire Sect!"
rookie Tree Sprout said.
"Li Fire Sect... Do you know how wickedly stringent their recruitment is? You need a Quadrate phantom beast to pass the threshold, and you're only at Level One! Are you kidding me?"
Lin Chen couldn't help but shoot his shot, "Hey! I mean, come on! I'm talking about the greatest tree who ever existed, the Taikuhongmengshu who conquered the universe and held back the ancient epochs! Isn't anyone afraid of your tree brother?" he urged,
"No need to bring up the past, let's focus on the present, okay!"
Lin Chen tousled the green leaves on top of the rookie's head, then sighed.
Actually, there is a sliver of hope.
Every year, the Li Fire Sect sets up a test in the Imperial City of the five kingdoms, selecting new recruits.
Whoever can snatch first place becomes an exclusive Chosen One and they can break all rules to recruit them.
"I think it's the recruitment day of the Li Fire Sect on these two days. I have to hustle to the imperial city!"
Lin Chen looked up at the smattering of fog ahead and his eyes glimmered with determination.
As long as a path was laid out before him, he'd grind day and night to grind it!
"Wham! Wham! Wham!"
Just then, the sound of breaking air reverberated from the cliff.
Apparently, there were shadowy figures zooming around in the hoopla.
Lin Chen was taken aback, quickly tucked himself behind a massive rock, and ears at attention.
There were seven of them, shimmying through the thick fog towards the depths of Zilian Mountain!
"Lin Family thinks they can join forces with us and explore the Zilian Mountain relics with half a map? What a laugh!"
"Why would you want to invite a third wheel when you have the chance to run away with the loot?"
"Fast, time is ticking."
"Hurry off when you've scored, Lin Hongbin that old fossil is not easy to deal with!"
The conversation of the group seeped into Lin Chen's ear.
"Zhang Family?"
Lin Chen's eyes twinkled slightly.
It looked like things had become crystal clear.
Zhang Family gave a half map each to Lin Family, preparing to cooperate and explore the Zilian Mountain relics. The half map that Lin Family held was actually from Lin Yimo's ring. And Zhang Family had found out the exact location of the Zilian Mountain relics by other means and planned to ditch Lin Family and swipe the treasure all by themselves!
After giving it some thought, Lin Chen decided to pull a major haul!
He stepped forward, gently lifted Lin Ning'er, then navigated through the fog, tailing after them.
Lin Chen could feel the world through the thousand-tree dense body.
The vast jungle, everything within periphery!
Lin Chen tracked the seven people from afar, maintaining a safe distance.
"Kid, you really got guts, joining this hoopla. "
Little Tree Nut sighed, "Your tree brother, who was once a so-called steady and conservative tree, has been corrupted by you!"
"Being timid is still being timid, don't put a medal around your neck."
Lin Chen rolled his eyes.
In the depths of Zilian Mountain, occasionally there were ferocious creatures roaring, shaking the heavens.
The deeper they got, the more pronounced monster aggression was felt around.
No wonder, few dared to enter this place.
There were simply too many monsters here, if they made a single wrong move, they'd become snack food.
Within half an hour, the front Zhang Seven had encountered at least five waves of monster assaults!
Fortunately, their strength was formidable, they managed to escape unscathed.
The leader turned out to be Zhang Xuan, the Zhang Family patriarch, equipped with Earth Spirit Layer 6 powerhouse.
The other six were all Zhang Family elite warriors, all Earth Spirit Layer 5!
Eventually, the seven figures abruptly halted.
Lin Chen peered ahead and instantly his eyes shone with a marveling look.
What he saw was the entrance to a cave hidden under a mess of trees on a mountain wall!
Thunder House!
