Above all spirits

Chapter 333 A Temporary Buffer

"The essence of life..."

Gu Yun suddenly thought of this rare treasure originating from the World Tree.

The trouble should end it.

The World Tree itself might be able to resolve the damage it inflicted on itself, or at least delay the damage.

A flash of white light appeared at my fingertips.

With a slight movement, Gu Yun produced a small, exquisite green bottle in his hand.

Even though the bottle opening was carefully sealed, the bottle still exuded a faint aura of vitality, as if it could revive all things and give them life.

He quickly unscrewed the cap and took a sip.

This single sip contains over a dozen drops of life essence, priceless; no normal person would be so extravagant and wasteful.

For countless diseases and injuries, a single drop is enough.

However, Gu Yun couldn't care less about that now. He had obtained a lot of life essence through trickery, and if it really worked, he would be willing to spend it all even if it meant losing his own money.

What's the point of keeping treasures if you're going to die?

The moment the essence of life enters the throat.

Gu Yun felt a surge of vitality rapidly expanding, flowing through his limbs and bones, as if a warm torrent was washing away the withering and decay within him.

His faint life force, which had been swaying in the wind, suddenly exploded, and his body temperature gradually rose from cold to warm.

However, although the vitality brought by the life essence relieved him, the corrosive power had not completely dissipated, and it was still spreading in his body like an irresistible curse.

But at least.

It was delayed.

It delayed crucial time.

For me, three days was the most pressing limit.

If he were to travel at his own pace, even with the teleportation array, it would still take him almost a day to arrive by air, which would be a tight schedule.

What terrifying and domineering rules.

Come to think of it, this is the first time I've encountered a life-threatening crisis.

Gu Yun put away the small green bottle, feeling slightly puzzled.

Is there no limit to Eve's ruthless methods?

"If that's the case, how can we fight?"

Gu Yun gave a bitter smile.

I wasn't touched by her or anything.

How did I get infected?

If everything in sight is truly decaying, then there's no point in fighting. In a single exchange, one can unleash the power: Dead Wood (Gu Yunxian is unaware of this yet), and the opponent will be on the verge of death. What's the point of fighting then?

Gu Yun knew that the stronger the ability, the more limitations it would inevitably have, even if there weren't many.

Gu Yun recalled his experience from resisting the divine punishment lightning until now, but his confusion had not disappeared. He still didn't know where things had gone wrong. To be honest, it was somewhat unreasonable that the divine punishment lightning could hit him in such a precise and targeted manner.

At least they have the protection of rules.

Following this point of doubt.

Gu Yun tried to extend the timeline to include his battles with Xina and the others.

A guess gradually formed in my mind.

blood.

If we're talking about the life rules Eve has mastered, some of her special methods are likely related to the blood of living beings.

Damn.

Next time you fight someone, try your best to avoid coughing up blood, or you'll just be unlucky.

talking.

Gu Yun glanced at the four holes in his limbs that had just been pierced and were healing at a visible speed, and laughed self-deprecatingly. It seemed that fighting against an existence of this level without getting bruised was a bit difficult.

How could any creature from the lower realm possibly withstand the power of space?

If he has the opportunity to go to the upper realm, he must master the use of spatial power. Only then will he be truly invincible in the lower realm.

...

"The outside world is indeed different from the forest."

"The layout is similar to that of ancient times."

"But it's not at all as loose as modern ones."

After several transfers, Werner finally returned to Canglan Star with Yunyin. He used teleportation arrays whenever possible to avoid wasting energy on flying, and he was willing to spend more money since Gu Yun had plenty of star coins and gave him a large amount before parting.

A small black shadow appeared at Yunyin's waist.

The reason it didn't appear on her shoulder as usual was because Yunyin's light golden hair was too shiny, unlike Gu Yun's jet-black hair. If she were to peek her head on her shoulder, it would be too conspicuous.

"Follow me, we'll go straight to the capital to find Gu Yun's men."

Yunyin chuckled and pointed a finger at the dark shadow on her belt.

"Wow, they even have subordinates, and they're doing so well."

"Oh."

Yunyin seemed to remember something and opened her mouth slightly.

"I almost forgot, Brother Gu is now a gang leader."

"Of course, the entire demon race has to listen to him."

Along the way, Werner told Yunyin a lot about Gu Yun's deeds. Of course, he only mentioned some very private matters. The two had known each other for many years and naturally became close friends who could talk to each other.

Although this acquaintance was only one-sided, because Werner knew Yunyin and had watched her grow up almost every day, Yunyin only treated him as a joke in Gu Yun's casual words.

"Hey, there are so many fun and delicious things here, things I've never seen before."

"Quick, Xiao Hei, bring me some money."

Werner responded with a hint of indulgence, opened his little treasury, and handed Yunyin ten star coins.

Don't underestimate these ten stalls; Werner is already thankful that nine out of ten of them are open.

I've always felt like I'm taking care of Yunyin Werner, like an old father.

After all, if anyone else called Werner "Little Black," they would definitely fly into a rage. Don't be fooled by Werner's infrequent attacks; as a clone of Gu Yun's panel, Werner's strength is practically enough to sweep through Canglan Star with ease. He has the ability to do so.

"Nizi, there are only star coins here, you can take them first."

"However, you'd better go to a large shop first and exchange your Star Coins for some Canglan Star's base gold coins, otherwise I'm worried that these small stalls won't be able to make change for the Star Coins you, a great Buddha, offer."

"Didn't you say you weren't short of money?"

"Yes."

"I'll buy more and just give them to them directly later, no need to give change."

"I...okay, it's all thanks to your kindness. As long as you're happy, we're not short of money. We'll ask the little emperor to reimburse us later."

Yunyin responded in surprise.

"Is the emperor of Canglan Star very familiar with Brother Gu? Didn't you say the old emperor was...?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you. It's okay, don't worry. It's not a matter of familiarity or not. Let me put it this way, Canglan Star is now under Gu Yun's protection. If Gu Yun goes east, any emperor brat who dares to go west will lose his head."

Yunyin smiled sweetly, and a hundred charms bloomed in an instant.

I walked toward the street stalls.

Amidst the bustling crowds on the vibrant streets of the imperial city, this beautiful woman walked slowly.

Her clothes were as light and soft as clouds, and her skirt fluttered in the wind.

Her face was like a painting, and her eyes were clear.

It was as if all the beauty in the world had been gathered in her.

Her beauty attracted countless eyes; the surrounding vendors, pedestrians, and even wanderers on the street couldn't help but turn around for a second look, even before she appeared.

They seemed completely out of place in this bustling marketplace.
