He waved his hand to remove the barrier at the entrance, revealing the passage.
Hearing that, the Red Cloud Demon King’s eyes lit up with joy. He immediately walked into the valley and, after seeing David sitting cross-legged at the edge of the spring, he quickened his steps to approach.
“David! It’s really you!”
Red Cloud Demon Lord’s voice contained a hint of joy, but more so, a sense of relief and calm, “I’ve finally found you! The Ten Heavens are vast and chaotic. I followed the faint traces of dragon power and your battle scars for several days before finally finding this place.”
David stood up and motioned for the Red Cloud Demon Lord to sit on a bluestone next to him, while handing him a pot of tea brewed with spiritual spring water and containing gentle spiritual energy.
“Senior, why did you cross the barrier to come to Tenth Heaven looking for me, instead of guarding the woman you love on Ninth Heaven? What is the purpose of your visit?”
David was indeed curious. Given the Red Cloud Demon Lord’s status and power in the Nine Heavens, he would not easily leave his base and risk coming to this high-level world unless there was something extremely important to do.
In addition, the Red Cloud Demon Lord also had to guard the physical body of the woman he loved, waiting for news that she could be resurrected.
Red Cloud Demon Lord took the teapot, but had no interest in tasting it; he just held it tightly in his hands.
He took a deep breath, looked at David, and his eyes showed deep pleading and undisguised pain.
“David, to be honest, I came here because there was something I wanted to ask you, and I had no other choice but to come to you.”
The Red Cloud Demon Lord’s voice was low, trembling slightly, “This is for Lingyue.”
“Lingyue Fairy?”
David was surprised.
“Good.”
The pain on the Red Cloud Demon Lord’s face deepened. “I thought that by preserving Lingyue’s physical body, I could wait for a slim chance to revive.”
“But recently, Lingyue’s physical body has begun to show almost imperceptible signs of decay! Although it is very slow, I can feel the trend of life energy fading and death energy being eroded!”
He suddenly grabbed David’s arm with such force that exposed his inner anxiety: “David, you should know that the physical body is the abode of the soul, and moreover the foundation for future resurrection!”
“If the physical body is completely destroyed and the soul is lost, the hope of revival will be very slim, and there may even be no hope forever! I I can’t just stand by and watch Lingyue”
Red Cloud Demon Lord couldn’t continue speaking; he was so agitated he could barely breathe.
He couldn’t bear to watch the body of the woman he loved slowly rot and eventually disappear, never to be resurrected.
David’s expression turned serious.
Although he was unfamiliar with the art of resurrection through supernatural means, he understood the importance of preserving the physical body.
For someone like the Scarlet Cloud Demon Lord to lose his cool like this, the situation must be extremely critical.
“Senior, what do you need from me? Do you need to find some kind of treasure or way that can preserve my physical body?”
David asked in a deep voice.
Red Cloud Demon Lord nodded heavily, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes: “I have consulted many ancient books and finally found an ancient formula—’Nine Turns Body Building Pill’!”
“This pill does not directly bring people back to life, but it can lock the body’s vitality to the maximum level, isolate it from the erosion of death energy, strengthen the body, and provide invaluable time for the next method of true resurrection. It can even nourish the body a little!”
“However, the ingredients required for this ‘Nine Revolutions Rejuvenation Pill’ are all extremely rare treasures! Some of the key ingredients cannot be found in the Nine Heavens at all! We have to go to a higher realm!”
The Red Cloud Demon Lord took out a piece of ancient jade from his robe and handed it to David. “The main ingredients required are all recorded here. In particular, the Tenth Heaven’s Tenth Heaven’s Ice Soul Blood Lotus, the Eleventh Heaven’s Earth Core Jade Marrow Milk, and the Twelfth Heaven’s Nine Orifices Divine Spirit Grass! These three ingredients are the essence of the core, and none must be missing!”
David took the jade scroll and immersed his consciousness into it.
This document contains detailed notes on the formula of the “Nine Turns Body Building Pill” and the ingredients required, with the characteristics of each ingredient and the possible growth environment. All of them were indeed rare treasures that had never been heard of before.
These three core materials are particularly characterized as having the potential to be produced in certain extreme locations within their respective domains, and the conditions for their maturation are particularly challenging.
