With Nine-Tailed Fox and White Tiger, Youming led them through many twists and turns until they finally arrived at a secluded mountain hollow. Deep within the hollow was a naturally formed cave, its entrance hidden by dense vines, making it extremely difficult to find without careful searching.

"This is it," Youming said, pointing to the cave, his voice tinged with weariness.

Nine-Tailed Fox nodded and carefully put Lu Lingxi Yao down from its back. Lu Lingxi Yao was still unconscious, pale-faced, and breathing weakly, which was heartbreaking to see.

The three gently laid Lu Lingxi Yao flat on the relatively dry ground inside the cave. Youming stretched out his hand, and a soft green light emanated from his palm, slowly covering Lu Lingxi Yao's body. This was wood-type spiritual energy, which had a gentle healing effect.

The green light slowly seeped into Lu Lingxi Yao's body, nourishing her damaged meridians and internal organs. However, Lu Lingxi Yao's injuries were too severe. Not only was her spiritual power exhausted, but her internal organs were also severely shaken. It was estimated that she would not wake up for a while.

Time passed slowly, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Youming's forehead. His face gradually turned pale, and most of his spiritual power was exhausted, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

"Cough cough..."

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Lingxi Yao suddenly coughed a few times and slowly opened her eyes.

"Master, you're awake!" Nine-Tailed Fox exclaimed in surprise.

"Master, how are you feeling?" the white tiger asked with concern.

Lu Lingxi's gaze gradually focused, and when she saw the Nine-Tailed Fox, Youming, and White Tiger guarding her side, a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

"I...I'm fine..." Lu Lingxi's voice was weak and hoarse. She tried to sit up, but found that she was weak all over. The slightest movement aggravated her wounds, making it difficult for her to breathe.

"Master, don't move! You're badly injured!" Nine-Tailed Fox quickly stopped him.

Lu Lingxi Yao then noticed her injuries. She looked down and saw that her clothes were tattered and torn, with many deep wounds that exposed bone, and her clothes were stained red with blood.

"How are you... how are you?" Lu Lingxi Yao turned her head with difficulty to look at Nine-Tailed Fox, Netherworld and White Tiger. She didn't know what she was seeing until she saw it. Lu Lingxi Yao's heart sank to the bottom.

The white tiger's body was now stained red with blood, and his body was covered with hideous wounds, so deep that the bone was visible. In some places, the bones were even broken, exposing the white bones. His aura was extremely weak, as if he would collapse at any moment.

Nine-Tailed Fox was in no better condition. He originally had nine fluffy and beautiful tails, but now one of them had been forcibly severed. The cut was a bloody mess, a gruesome sight. His spiritual energy fluctuations had also become chaotic, clearly indicating that he had suffered severe internal injuries.

Although Youming was not as severely injured as Baihu and Jiuwei, his fiery red hair had become dull and lifeless, as if it had lost its vitality. His aura was also very unstable, sometimes strong and sometimes weak.

"How...how did you get so badly injured?" Lu Lingxi's voice trembled, her eyes filled with heartache and self-blame.

"Master, we're fine, just some superficial injuries, nothing serious." The white tiger forced a smile despite the pain, comforting Lu Lingxi.

"Master, don't worry about us. We're tough and resilient, this little injury is nothing," Nine-Tailed Fox said, trying to sound relaxed.

"What time is it, and you're still acting tough!" Lu Lingxi's voice carried a hint of anger, but more than that, it was filled with heartache. She knew that Nine-Tailed Fox, Netherworld, and White Tiger were injured so badly by Lu Lingqingyue and the people from Black Abyss while trying to protect her.

"Don't move, I'll heal you," Lu Lingxi said, struggling to sit up.

"Master, don't move! Your injuries are more serious than ours. Take care of yourself first!" Nine-Tailed Fox quickly stopped him.

"Yes, Master, we can still hold on. You should heal your wounds first," the white tiger advised.

“No, your injuries can’t be delayed any longer.” Lu Lingxi shook her head and insisted on healing them. She took out several healing pills from her Kunlun Ring and handed them to Nine-Tailed Fox, Netherworld, and White Tiger respectively.

"This is the Nine Yang Restoration Pill, which can quickly repair injuries. You should take it quickly," Lu Lingxi said.

Nine-Tailed Fox, Netherworld, and White Tiger took the pills and swallowed them without hesitation. The pills melted instantly in their mouths, and a warm current spread throughout their bodies, greatly reducing the pain in their wounds.

However, Lu Lingxi frowned. Although the Nine Yang Restoration Pill was a holy medicine for healing, its efficacy was greatly reduced in the environment of the Netherworld Continent. The wound that should have healed quickly had only stopped bleeding slowly and showed no obvious signs of healing.

“The Kunlun Ring is rich in spiritual energy and forms its own world, unaffected by the external environment. Healing there will definitely be much more effective. Let’s enter the Kunlun Ring now!” Lu Lingxi said to the group.

With a thought, a white light flashed, and the figures of Lu Lingxi, Nine-Tailed Fox, Youming, and White Tiger instantly disappeared into the cave.

Inside the Kunlun Ring, it was still that familiar scene.

A medicinal field brimming with spiritual energy, vibrant spiritual trees, crystal-clear spiritual springs, and that ancient and elegant palace.

As soon as they entered the Kunlun Ring, Nine-Tailed Fox, Netherworld, and White Tiger felt an unprecedented sense of comfort. The rich spiritual energy seemed to have a life of its own, actively entering their bodies and nourishing their injured bodies.

"Phew...that feels much better now." Nine-Tails let out a long sigh of relief, feeling that the pain in his body had lessened considerably.

"You all stay here and heal your injuries. I'm going to meditate," Lu Lingxi said.

"Alright, Master, you should go heal your wounds too," Nine-Tailed Fox, Netherworld, and White Tiger said in unison.

Lu Lingxi nodded, walked to the side, sat down cross-legged, and began to regulate her breathing to recover her spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy in the Kunlun Ring flowed continuously into Lu Lingxi Yao's body, nourishing her parched dantian and damaged meridians. Her complexion gradually regained its rosy hue, and her breathing became steady.

Time passed slowly, and the Kunlun Ring was peaceful and serene. Nine-Tailed Fox, Netherworld, and White Tiger each found a place and began to focus on healing their wounds.

New flesh and blood began to slowly grow from the broken tail of the Nine-Tailed Fox. Although the process was slow, it was a good start. The wounds on the White Tiger's body also gradually stopped bleeding and began to scab over. Youming's complexion also regained some color, and his breathing gradually stabilized.

……

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Lingxi slowly opened her eyes. Her spiritual power had recovered to about 70-80%, and her injuries had mostly healed.

"It's time to go out." Lu Lingxi stood up and stretched her limbs.

Then, he went to the Nine-Tailed Fox, Youming, and the White Tiger to check their injuries.

"How are you feeling?" Lu Lingxi asked.

"Master, I feel much better. My tail is starting to grow back," Nine-Tailed Fox said excitedly.

"My wounds have healed too," the white tiger said happily.

“My breathing is much more stable now,” Youming also said.

Lu Lingxi nodded, feeling very gratified.

“In that case, let’s go out,” Lu Lingxi said.

"Alright!" Nine-Tailed Fox, Netherworld, and White Tiger responded in unison.

With a thought, Lu Lingxi and Yao Yao reappeared in the cave.
