Long Road to Stardom

In order to prevent the same kind of accident as last time, Lin Xing observed that location for a while and found no cold wind or void cracks. Then he carried Jiao Ran over and placed her on a relatively flat-looking stone.

After simply setting up an illusion array, Lin Xing reached out to Jiaoran's body to check her condition.

The more she investigated, the more her brows furrowed. If those three people were still alive, she would never let them die so quickly and would torture them severely.

Lin Xing tried to draw out the life energy in his body to repair Jiaoran's body, but found that the life energy in his body had disappeared completely, leaving nothing for her.

She reached for the culprit in her dantian, wanting to spit it out, but she found that the sapling seemed to be mocking her and just glanced at her.

It's bad enough that a kind person is bullied by others, but she is also bullied by a tree. It's totally unjust.

But I really can't do anything about it. If I have the chance, I will definitely pull it out and give it a good whip to let it know why the flower is so red.

Lin Xing was having a sweet dream when a gentle and intimate voice came over and immediately pulled her out of her fantasy.

"Jiao Ran, are you awake?" Lin Xing looked at Jiao Ran in front of him and asked hurriedly.

After waiting for a long time, I saw that Jiaoran didn't respond at all, and there was a trace of pain on her face. I knew that she was in pain and cried out, but for some reason she didn't wake up.

Lin Xing quickly tried to comfort her, and when he saw that her face had calmed down a little, he began to practice the 'Qing Mu Jue'.

After practicing for a while, she felt that the spiritual energy here was too scarce, so she stopped practicing, took out the 'Spirit Gathering Array', put sixteen top-grade spirit stones on it, and felt the long-lost rich spiritual power gushing out. Lin Xing showed a rare smile, and seeing the expression on Jiaoran's face beside her, she also relaxed a lot. She felt that these sixteen top-grade spirit stones were not wasted.

With the help of the 'Spirit Gathering Array', Lin Xing's practice of the 'Green Wood Technique' was finally much faster, and the vital energy also continuously emerged from his body.

In order to prevent it from being absorbed by the sapling in his Dantian, Lin Xing practiced the 'Qingmu Jue' while guiding the vital energy into Jiaoran's body to repair his injuries.

It took Lin Xing less than an hour to repair Jiaoran's surface wounds. The sixteen top-grade spirit stones in the 'Spirit Gathering Array' had been consumed and turned into powder. She had no choice but to stop and place sixteen new top-grade spirit stones on top.

She suddenly doubted whether she had enough top-grade spirit stones on her body. She had used up so many of them just to repair the surface wounds. Jiaoran's meridians were almost broken, and her dantian was almost injured. To repair the remaining wounds would not only take up a lot of her mind and energy, but would also probably require a lot of life energy. The few spirit stones she had left might not be enough.

"It seems that we can only take it one step at a time. If Jiao Ran can wake up on her own, take some pills and use her internal energy to heal herself, then things will go much faster."

The pills she had taken before were mild enough to stabilize her injuries and prevent them from getting worse. If she were to continue to be fed other pills to repair her injuries, the meridians in her body would have been almost broken, and she would not be able to withstand the medicinal power of the pills at all. Moreover, she had no skills to absorb the medicinal power of the pills and reshape her meridians. If the power accumulated there, she would probably explode and die.

Thinking of this, Lin Xing could only repair Jiaoran's injuries bit by bit.

During one of her practice of 'Qing Mu Jue', Lin Xing discovered that the life energy produced this time had become much less. After checking her body, she found that the sapling in her Dantian had run to her arm at some point, cutting off some of the life energy that was about to be introduced into Jiao Ran's body.

The sapling seemed to realize that its secret absorption of life energy had been discovered, and the next second it ran back to its dantian as if nothing had happened.

Lin Xing was speechless. Could it be that this little sapling was playing tricks on it?

Knowing that Xiao Shuimiao understood what she said, she immediately expressed her dissatisfaction. Seeing that Xiao Shuimiao ignored her as if nothing had happened, Lin Xing laughed angrily, "You little thief, you only know how to steal other people's things. Don't you know that you need to at least exchange other people's things for something else?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the sapling lowering its head in thought. Although it was a tree, she felt that it was no different from a human being.

About three breaths later, the sapling shook its body, and a drop of water flew out from a leaf and headed towards Lin Xing.

Lin Xing stretched out his hand unconsciously, then looked down and found that the water droplets were already in his palm.

"this…"

Feeling the tremendous vitality coming from the water droplets, she recalled the 'Fountain of Life' she had encountered before. She had only felt it at that time, and the vitality coming from these water droplets seemed to be even stronger.

Lin Xing suddenly felt that his voice was a little loud just now. This little sapling was really a treasure. He quickly expressed his apologies in his heart.

Seeing that the sapling became even more arrogant after hearing this, Lin Xing coughed and swallowed the words she wanted to flatter, for she was afraid that the sapling would be blown away by her. After all, she had no way to do anything with the sapling, and she really couldn't stop it if it wanted to leave.

Lin Xing calmed himself down, carefully held the drop of water and fed it into Jiaoran's mouth.

As soon as it went down her throat, she could see that the injuries on Jiaoran's body were recovering rapidly, visibly.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have thought the legend was false. Now she feels that the legend was a little exaggerated. It really is worthy of being called the 'Fountain of Life'. One drop of it can heal all the injuries on the body. In the future, she will have to practice the 'Qingmu Jue' more to keep the sapling. By then, it should not be difficult to get rid of it with a few more drops of the 'Fountain of Life'.

Lin Xing was thinking happily at the side, and didn't notice that Jiao Ran had woken up.

As soon as Jiaoran woke up, she saw a familiar face in front of her, but she felt it was impossible.

"Isn't he already dead?"

"Before you die, can you let me take one more look at Xing's appearance?"

"But after so much time, why hasn't the star disappeared yet?"

Wu Jiaoran raised her hand and touched it, and found that it was so real.

Lin Xing only then realized that Jiao Ran had woken up, and said softly, "Jiao Ran, you're finally awake, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?"

"Jiao Ran, why don't you speak?"

"Yes

Did you hurt your throat?"

Just as she was about to move forward to investigate, Jiao Ran grabbed her hand and asked in an incredulous tone, "Xing, is it really you?"

"I...I...I'm still alive?"

Hearing this, Lin Xing pinched Jiao Ran's face and then asked, "Does it hurt?"

Wu Jiaoran nodded unconsciously.

"It's good that it hurts, it means you're still alive." Lin Xing touched Jiaoran's head and replied lovingly.

Wu Jiaoran then realized that she was not really dead, but how come all the injuries on her body had healed? She almost became a disabled person, but how come she could not feel any injuries on her body at all?

"Has it been a long time?"
