With a strong backing, Gu Yuan can steadily advance into the Golden Core Realm, solidifying his foundation at dicine King Mountain and allowing him to go further.
Danxia Laozu is such a backing, but the problem is that this backing is currently facing so issues.
These issues don’t seem to be minor.
Therefore, helping Danxia Laozu is essentially helping Gu Yuan himself.
Gu Yuan is fully aware of this point.
"Oh, you just left, how co you’re back again?"
When Gu Yuan arrived at Zhurong Peak, the originally ditating Venerable Black Dragon was sowhat surprised, staring at Gu Yuan repeatedly.
Gu Yuan quickly bowed and explained, "Reporting to the Venerable, I suddenly rembered sothing I need to tell the Ancestor."
Venerable Black Dragon seed uninterested in what Gu Yuan was saying, lazily shaking his tail and ears, saying, "Alright, go ahead then, the Ancestor is still inside the hall."
The nearby Daoist Child Qingfeng also noticed Gu Yuan and, seeing him rushing, asked in confusion, "Senior Brother Gu, what’s this about...?"
As Gu Yuan explained the reason, just as Daoist Child Qingfeng was about to report, Danxia Laozu’s voice ca from the side, "Let Gu Yuan co in."
"Yes, Patriarch!"
Daoist Child Qingfeng bowed before saying to Gu Yuan, "Senior Brother Gu, the Patriarch invites you in."
Gu Yuan was not surprised and said to Daoist Child Qingfeng, "Thank you, Junior Brother."
After saying this, he hurried into the main hall.
Once inside, he saw Danxia Laozu still stationed there, controlling a cluster of True Fla, nurturing the Elixir in the Pill Furnace.
Seeing Gu Yuan rush in, Danxia Laozu wasn’t surprised, directly saying, "Go ahead, what matter do you have with ?"
He understood clearly that Gu Yuan had just left not long ago and now hastily returned, certainly with sothing to say.
Thus, Danxia Laozu didn’t bother with superfluous words.
"This is..."
Gu Yuan turned his thoughts in his mind, simply getting straight to the point, "To be honest, Ancestor, I just heard so rumors, which... are about you. Uh, rumors about your injury."
Having paused, Gu Yuan glanced at Danxia Laozu, and seeing that his expression remained unchanged and silent, he continued, "So, I have an idea that could possibly help you solve this issue."
After speaking, seeing Danxia Laozu still appearing neither happy nor sad, calm and composed, he inwardly admired him.
The ancestor before him, indeed, did live up to being a Yang Spirit master, possessing a serenity that remains unfazed even with a mountain collapsing on top, composed amidst earth-shattering chaos.
"Hehe..."
Danxia Laozu suddenly laughed, "You say you have a thod to solve the problem? Alright, let’s hear it, I’m curious to see what solution you have."
In his words, there was a sowhat dismissive tone. Clearly, he didn’t believe Gu Yuan could solve the problem that had troubled him for so long.
However, the situation was indeed so.
Who was he, and who was Gu Yuan?
The cultivation and strength, knowledge and experience of the two, Gu Yuan was entirely inferior to Danxia Laozu.
Danxia Laozu had already tried various ways to solve his problem, yet a thousand years passed, and he could only start from the Alchemy Dao.
He planned to refine a legendary Spirit Pill that could repair the Divine Soul, only then could he possibly solve his problem.
As for Gu Yuan, he possessed good talent and comprehension, and with his ability in Alchemy Dao, he was also quite gifted.
But now, he was ultimately still lacking, as no matter from which angle Danxia Laozu viewed it, he didn’t believe Gu Yuan could solve the problem that had troubled him for so long.
Gu Yuan hesitated for a mont, simply saying, "To be honest, Ancestor, back at my ho, I once grew a peach tree."
Peach tree?
Danxia Laozu frowned, not understanding why Gu Yuan was ntioning such an insignificant topic.
But he also knew Gu Yuan wasn’t one to do useless things without reason, so he patiently continued to listen.
Gu Yuan continued, "This peach tree every year bore big and sweet fruit, which I greatly cherished, taking good care of it."
"However, one year there was a heavy rain and a fierce wind, and the peach tree was blown over."
Gu Yuan quietly "narrated" his little story, saying, "At that ti, I was a bit anxious because I had always been rather a glutton, and if the peach tree were to die, I might never taste such sweet peaches again."
"Fortunately, following the advice of the village elders, I learned a thod and decided to take a branch of the peach tree and graft it onto another fruit tree, intending to let this peach tree branch absorb the nutrients of this fruit tree and survive."
"I diligently fertilized and watered it, carefully nurturing, and soon enough, the peach tree branch sprouted new buds and was revived with life."
"This thod is called grafting."
With this, Gu Yuan’s little story concluded.
As for Danxia Laozu, at this mont, his brows were slightly furrowed as if lost in thought.
Gu Yuan’s little story was simple, not complicated, so he certainly understood Gu Yuan’s implication.
But also, because he understood, he was sowhat astonished.
The peach tree Gu Yuan spoke of actually referred to him.
The peach tree being blown over ant his current injury.
Then, Gu Yuan talked about using this "grafting" thod to connect the peach tree branch to another fruit tree, drawing nutrients to grow and thrive.
This was actually a suggested ans to heal his injury.
This thod seed simple, even a bit coarse and direct, but Danxia Laozu thought about it and found the feasibility quite considerable.
Danxia Laozu’s injury wasn’t related to the body; it was primarily due to issues with the Divine Soul.
In such cases, only the rare Spirit dicine or Spirit Pills fad for healing Divine Souls were effective for him.
Yet such Spirit dicines or Spirit Pills were naturally extrely rare.
Moreover, ever since that incident, Danxia Laozu could no longer easily trust others.
Therefore, any Spirit dicine or Spirit Pill could only be self-produced before he dared to ingest and refine it.
Regarding other thods, he had indeed considered them, for instance, Danxia Laozu himself possessed a unique Divine Technique, capable of dispersing his Yang Spirit and gathering it into a cluster of Essence to reincarnate, starting cultivation anew.
In this way, over ti, with the growth of cultivation, his injury could essentially recover.
However, although this seed effective, the problem was that once enacted, his Lifespan dilemma would remain unsolved.
In other words, choosing this thod ant all his cultivation would be wasted, and concerning lifespan, only about a thousand years would remain, not increasing, and possibly decreasing due to certain changes.
Thus, when the lifespan ran out, he would still face death.
As for the solution, it was both simple and difficult.
