I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

"What's going on? Why do I feel like my power is being drained away?" Li Zhaohuang said in horror. She could feel her magical power being drained away by some mysterious force, and the speed of this drain was increasing, making her feel extremely terrified.

Under the influence of the poisonous gas, her body began to weaken and breathing became difficult. The strength of the barrier also began to weaken, as if it could break at any time.

But Li Zhaohuang didn't flinch. She gritted her teeth and used all her strength to maintain the stability of the barrier. Although a fishy-sweet liquid began to well up in her mouth, she still stubbornly persisted, refusing to give up.

On the other side, in a cave not far from Baixian Garden, Li Chen and his group were hiding here to recuperate. They had just experienced a fierce battle and were exhausted both physically and mentally.

Coincidentally, there happened to be a stone bed here, which could be used by the young man to recover. As for Li Chen and his group, they were already immortals and did not need to find a place to rest. They could rest and recuperate anywhere.

"You guys, don't hurt the butterfly fairy!" The young man was still in a coma, but he kept muttering to himself. Obviously, he had a deep affection for the butterfly fairy.

"Jade Rabbit Fairy! Take good care of him. I'll go check on the situation." Li Chen ordered. He decided to go out and check the surrounding situation himself to ensure everyone's safety.

However, at this moment, a gust of emerald green poisonous wind suddenly blew in from outside the cave, carrying a pungent smell and strong toxicity. Li Chen's face changed, and he immediately realized the danger of this poisonous wind. He quickly cast a spell to try to resist the invasion of this poisonous wind.

But the poisonous wind was too strong, and Li Chen had no choice but to use his divine power to release a magical barrier to isolate the poison gas outside the cave! He then summoned a huge rock, sealed the cave entrance with it, and then used his own blood to give the rock the magical power to isolate the poison!

"Master, what was that just now?"

Fairy Hibiscus's face was filled with surprise. The poisonous gas had come at too fast a speed. If Li Chen had not cast a spell barrier in time, I'm afraid no one would have escaped the disaster!

"I don't know either, but I know this poison gas is definitely related to the Hundred Immortal Butterflies!"

Li Chen said this in a decisive tone, his eyes revealing murderous intent and anger. He wished he could completely destroy the butterfly demon that was causing trouble to the area right now, and then brainwash her into his pet through the system!

"I won't allow you to do that! She's the Butterfly Fairy!"

The young man had regained consciousness at this time. He endured the severe pain and fatigue in his body and climbed up from the stone bed with difficulty.

"You! This guy..."

The Fire-Eating Scorpion was already enraged by him. She was about to punish the young man, but was stopped by Li Chen.

Li Chen stepped forward and said to the young man, "Young man, if you have anything to say, why don't you explain it to us clearly? That was clearly a demon, so why did you say she was a butterfly fairy?"

"This one……"

The young man showed a hesitant look on his face, as if he found it difficult to speak.

Li Chen noticed his hesitation and immediately stepped forward and said, "Destroying demons doesn't necessarily require killing or using weapons. Just tell me, if she's an immortal contaminated by evil spirits, we can help her! Remove the evil spirits!"

After hesitating for a moment, the young man finally made up his mind and said, "You may not believe it, but it's true. She really is the Butterfly Fairy! I've seen her true face before, and her beauty and kindness are unforgettable to me. But I don't know why she became what she is now. But I firmly believe that deep down in her heart she must still retain that kindness and beauty. Please believe me, don't hurt her!"

Hearing the young man's words, everyone fell into deep thought. The Fire-Eating Scorpion also temporarily put down his weapon, considering the possibility of the young man's suggestion. After all, they were all cultivators, familiar with the existence of immortals and demons. If, as the young man said, this butterfly fairy was an immortal tainted by evil spirits, then perhaps they could truly try to save her instead of killing her outright.

Li Chen looked at the young man's resolute eyes, and his trust in his words grew stronger. He nodded and said, "In that case, we will observe for a while and see if we can find a way to help her recover. However, we cannot let our guard down. If we find that she is indeed a dangerous demon, we will take action."

Although the Fire Scorpion was somewhat reluctant, it still agreed to Li Chen's decision. So, everyone began to observe the Butterfly Fairy, hoping to find a solution to the problem.

"Why don't you first tell me how you met."

Li Chen continued to ask, he wanted to find out how this young man was related to the Butterfly Fairy!

The young man sat on the stone bed and asked Li Chen and his party to tell him the whole process of his encounter with the butterfly fairy.

"I'm Ma Hongji, a doctor from Jinsha Village! One day, a special patient came to my clinic. He was seriously injured, and I couldn't find any cure for him despite searching all the medical books!"

Ma Hongji told Li Chen and his party about the situation at that time. Doctors often encounter diseases that are difficult to treat, but as long as they try their best and have a clear conscience, it will be fine!

"Later, I finally found a cure in a book. I was overjoyed, but the prescription mentioned ten-thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and thousand-year-old ginseng that grow on cliffs!"

As Ma Hongji was speaking, Li Chen and his companions also admired this young man from the bottom of their hearts, because they already knew that this young man would climb to the top of the cliff at all costs to obtain the ten thousand year old Ganoderma lucidum and thousand year old ginseng to treat the patients!

"While climbing a cliff, I accidentally fell down! Just when I thought I was doomed, a stunningly beautiful fairy descended from the sky and saved me. She also helped me retrieve the ten-thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and thousand-year-old ginseng!"

Ma Hongji said this, tears of gratitude welled up in his eyes. If it weren't for Baixiandie saving him, he would have been smashed into a pulp by now!

"The butterfly fairy told me a secret spell that allows me to enter a very good medicine garden to collect precious medicinal herbs!"

Listening to Ma Hongji's story, Li Chen also understood that the very good source of medicine that Ma Hongji mentioned was actually the Baixian Garden where the Baixian Butterflies appeared in the game.

"So, from then on, I used the herbs in the medicine garden to treat patients! This continued until the Yellow Wind King attacked..."

Ma Hongji didn't know what he was thinking about, but he actually started crying. It seemed that something very bad had happened later, which made him cry so bitterly!

"Ma Hongji, I know what happened later makes you very uncomfortable, but in order for us to purify the polluted butterfly fairy, please explain it clearly!" Li Chen looked at him and said, if he didn't understand the situation clearly, he would not be able to devote himself to the battle.
