Rise of the Great Emperor Chapter 157: Medicinal Bath

Chapter 157: Medicinal Bath

Qiu Si looked at her husband and then smiled. “In that case, I’ll support you in whatever you want to do.”

“Thank you, Sweetheart.”

The couple didn’t say anything else, but starting from that day, they began to help Lin Xiao to learn about many things.

…

Time passed swiftly.

During this period of time, Lin Xiao chose to attend missions again and made sure that he managed to obtain more Spirit Stones. The one who used the Spirit Stones the most was Sui Wenyan because when one reached Foundation Establishment, the needs for Spirit Stones soared. She wouldn’t even feel anything even if she had hundreds of Spirit Stones to absorb each day.

Of course, Lin Xiao was incapable to provide that much.

The needs for resources was also one of the reasons why many people chose to participate in sects and academy. As long as they could get in, they would be able to obtain a lot of resources and possibly advance faster.

Lin Xiao himself also continued to strengthen himself by using the medicine and training. It was to the point that his entire time was solely devoted to train, be it in terms of knowledge and physical ability.

“It’s nearly New Year. Are you ready for the medicinal bath, Brother?”

Lin Xiao glanced at Lin Yun, who was holding onto a large batch of medicine in his hand. Over the past few months, both Lin Yun and Wenren Yu seemed to be crazy as they gathered a lot of herbs and also trained their ability to make medicine. There were a lot of waste, but many were also useful.

Those that they didn’t need, they would sell them again and those that they deemed as useful would be kept away. As the result, the amount of money they had have been dwindling rapidly. In the end, they were forced to take several missions and Sui Wenyan came to watch them on the side.

“Yes.”

“Alright. If you can’t hold on, tell us.”

After looking at the recipe that Wenren Yu prepared, Lin Yun already felt that it was insane. The combination of several medicine could even create toxicity, yet there were also others at the same time that can nullify the effect.

“Ok.”

They bought a house not far from Qiu Si and Zhongsun Shan’s house. It was quite small but enough for their needs. There was no need for them to look for an expensive house when they were not going to stay here for a long time.

Wenren Yu was already preparing the bath and looked at Lin Xiao with hesitation. He himself didn’t want to use the bath for him because the pain would be unimaginable. If one couldn’t hold on, one could die. He didn’t think that his mental fortitude would be that strong, so he never tried it by himself.

“Now?”

“Yeah?”

Lin Xiao took out his outer robe and looked at the medicinal bath that Wenren Yu prepared. The water was clear without any sign of impurities. If one didn’t know better, one would think that this was not medicinal bath and instead, it was ordinary water that was placed here.

Looking at Wenren Yu, who was careful to not touch the water, Lin Xiao could guess that the medicinal bath was real. Probably even a touch would make one feel hurt.

“You can enter, but make sure that you continue to circulate your Qi no matter what happen. Once you stop and the medicine is stuck in your body, you might not be able to survive,” Wenren Yu warned.

Lin Xiao nodded. “Alright.”

Splash!

The moment his skin touched the water, Lin Xiao could feel scorching pain. It was as if there were thousands of needles pricking onto his skin and threatened to tear him apart. It was so painful. And soon, the pain intensified. His bones were crushed, his flesh were torn, and his organs were squeezed.

Everything was tearing apart inside his body, yet there was nothing that Lin Xiao could do but to circulate his Qi. His mind was in chaos but Lin Xiao gritted his teeth.

‘This is nothing compared to the inheritance.’

Gritting his teeth, Lin Xiao circulate his Qi while bearing with the pain. Sitting in the medicinal bath, he couldn’t feel anything but pain on his skin. Even the warm sensation from his Qi circulation that he usually felt was now gone.

One circulation.

Two circulations.

Lin Xiao continued to circulate his Qi while the pain continued to assault his body. He couldn’t even sense if there was anyone around him anymore because his attention was solely focused inside his body.

Not far from him, Wenren Yu and Lin Yun were watching nervously. Wenren Yu was still looking at the water and tried to add the herbs in accordance to what his teacher taught him. This method was known to be the cruelest method in Taiyi Sect and would only be done by those who were desperate enough.

After all, not everyone have good talent and if they wanted to grow stronger faster, they have to be ready to pay for the price. And the price for this method was unimaginable pain that many people would never be able to withstand.

Time passed.

Every seconds felt like it was a lifetime. Wenren Yu was still watching Lin Xiao nervously. His hand was trembling as he saw the red skin on Lin Xiao’s flesh. It was the sign that the medicine was working and began to increase the basic defense.

This method would increase one’s physical strength exponentially. However, if one failed to withstand the pain and didn’t do the circulation, it might damage their organs and also their mind. Because of that, no one wanted to do this.

To be conscious of the pain for hours…

Not everyone could do that.

“How long it’ll last?”

“Just a bit more…” Wenren Yu said with uncertainty. Everyone have different absorption capabilities, so he was not sure.
