Chapter 326 Recovery
Chapter 326 Recovery
The next day at noon, Huiyuan, dressed in androgynous clothing, arrived at the cave in Jueyun.
"It's a bit tight in the chest area... but it's necessary to dress like a boy. Hmm, let me think, what kind of training should I do..."
Just then, the usually unreliable Sister Tongzi spoke up with a very reliable voice.
"A one-week training plan has been generated for the host. Day one is balance training, involving jumping on slender wooden stakes to dodge attacks."
The second day involved strength control training, using one-meter-long chopsticks to pick up delicate grains of rice.
Day three of speed burst training...
The seventh day was for mental training, including a walk in the mountains to relax – in short, a holiday.
"Wow, there's even a holiday! Sister Tong is so kind!"
"Huh...? What did you call me, trash?"
"Oh, no, no, you must have misheard!"
And so, Huiyuan began her training.
The first day passed, and my clothes were battered by laser drones, almost triggering the defeat cutscene.
Because it felt too stuffy in her chest, Huiyuan took off her chest binder.
"Actually, if no one sees, I don't have to pretend to be a boy. Yeah, that's what I'll do. It's definitely not because I lack willpower; wearing a chest binder hurts a lot."
On the third day, Huiyuan could clearly feel his own progress. With the help of the system, cultivation became easier.
On the fourth day, bad news came from the bodybuilding community: he twisted his ankle, and even after taking the magic beans, he still experienced phantom pain, forcing him to change his training strategy.
On the fifth day at noon, for some unknown reason, Xiangling and Ying, who were looking for new ingredients, found themselves in the cave where Huiyuan was cultivating.
The group looked at each other, somewhat bewildered.
Xiangling wanted to ask, "Where are my ingredients? Why is it Huiyuan?"
Huiyuan wanted to ask, "How could I be captured in this desolate wilderness while I was cultivating?"
Yingmei thought to herself, "So Yuanbao is an ingredient."
Since they were already there, everyone started a food party.
On the sixth day, Huiyuan saw everyone off and continued his cultivation.
On the seventh day, it was time for the holiday.
After a week of training, Huiyuan followed the system's instructions and began to stroll through Jueyun Realm.
From the vibrant life of dawn to the rosy glow of dusk, Jueyunjian truly deserves to be called a land of immortals.
"Now I finally understand what the monks mean by tranquility. Compared to the hustle and bustle of the city, this is truly relaxing. This is during the peak tourist season, and tourist attractions packed with visitors can't compare. It's not just a visual impact, but also a spiritual purification."
After watching the sunset, Huiyuan started walking down the mountain path.
Humming a little tune, a little girl's voice suddenly came from not far away.
"One two... seven seven, two two, seven seven."
Following the direction of the sound, Huiyuan found Qiqi carrying a basket on her back.
"Oh? It's Qiqi, are you gathering herbs?"
"Hmm, Qiqi is gathering herbs... Who are you?"
"I am Mimi's owner, Huiyuan. Never mind... this way, you'll remember faster."
As she spoke, Huiyuan released a burst of vibrant wind element that enveloped Qiqi.
Feeling a warm current enter her body, Qiqi covered her right eye with her right hand and said, "Amadeus..."
Oh no, she didn't say that. She said...
"...Qiqi remembers you, you're Mimi's owner. Oh, by the way, I need to gather some herbs for Doctor Bai. Goodbye..."
"See you."
Seeing Qiqi turn and leave, Huiyuan began to ponder.
(I previously granted the power to Yingmei's familiar through the Seven Statues. I wonder if I can directly use this ability to connect with Qiqi and help her regain her memories... Hmm, that's not very realistic. The Heart of the Wind God does have some healing properties, but it can't completely restore them.)
Taking a deep breath, Huiyuan summoned a cloud and flew away.
"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've used the Geo Archon... because I only unlocked one constellation, so I only have the Anemo Archon equipped."
At this moment, the system said, "Host, with your current strength, it is not recommended to equip two Hearts of God at the same time. Please remove the Heart of the Wind God before using the Heart of the Rock."
"Oh, I know."
With her hands clasped to her chest, Huiyuan closed her eyes and took out the Heart of God from her body. She then took out the Rock Heart from the Eye of God's space and put it inside.
I took another deep breath and felt the changes in my body.
"Hiss... My sensitivity to sound has decreased, but otherwise I don't feel anything. Let's try the rock element."
They found an open space and landed.
Just as her feet touched the ground, Huiyuan felt a jolt in her body.
"I can feel a slight tremor in the earth... What is this? Is the Heart of Wind sensitive to sound, and the Heart of Rock sensitive to stone? Wait, the Dragon-Subduing Tree in the direction of the South Heavenly Gate is quite conspicuous..."
The large tree that sealed the Dragon King Ruoduo was very conspicuous in my eyes.
How to describe it? It's like being surrounded by darkness, but that one place is radiating light.
"Is the Dragon King Ruoduo... about to break the seal?"
As this thought crossed her mind, Huiyuan immediately understood everything.
"I see. No wonder I've been feeling uneasy lately. So that's where the problem lies."
Without hesitation, Huiyuan flew towards this place.
He switched back to his familiar Heart of Wind and surveyed his surroundings, only to find a little girl with blue hair standing under the Dragon Tree.
Upon seeing the little girl, Huiyuan felt a surge of crisis and dared not make any rash moves.
Just then, she turned around and noticed Huiyuan.
The girl's voice contained a faint, ancient dragon's groan.
"You've arrived a bit early... Do you wish to witness the revival of 'that one,' the oldest and most majestic being of Liyue?"
"That one... refers to the Dragon King Ruotu, so you're about to break the seal?"
"Oh...? Such a quick reaction, you actually saw through the true nature of this body... You're not a mortal... but an immortal? Hahahaha! You've come at the right time, prepare to die!"
"Hey, hey, hey, they've started fighting before the plot has even been set up. Is that reasonable?"
Huiyuan complained, but quickly caught a punch from Ruoduo Dragon King, who had transformed into a little girl.
This power is clearly not what Ruoduo should have; his true form is sealed under the Dragon Tree, preventing him from using his full strength.
Holding his right hand tightly, Huiyuan frowned.
"Let go of my hand! Let go now!"
"There seems to be something wrong with this Dragon-Subduing Tree behind you. Have you fused it into your body?"
"So what? It has already become one with me. Breaking the seal is only a matter of time. You can't kill me!"
"No wonder Zhou Benli, your tail is shaped like this tree."
"What nonsense are you spouting? If you're going to fight, hurry up and do it. Stop dawdling..."
Hearing what the Dragon King Ruotu said, Huiyuan didn't waste any words and took out the Negative Status Purifier to spray it.
