Chapter 193: Treatment – Xiao Wu’s Shock!
Following Xiao Wu's instructions, Ye Tian took out a piece of paper from his storage space.
On it, he wrote a very common medicinal prescription.
This prescription was called "Breath Regulation Soup," and it required a rather complex combination of over thirty different herbs.
However, all of these herbs were extremely common.
Given the abundant resources of the Star Dou Forest, gathering the necessary herbs was an incredibly easy task.
The reason for writing this prescription was to convince Da Ming and Er Ming, the two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts.
After all, they believed that Xiao Wu had contracted a recurring illness.
Since it was an illness, it shouldn't be too easy to cure.
If the prescription was too simple, it might raise suspicion from the two soul beasts.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, after careful consideration, Ye Tian handed the prescription for Breath Regulation Soup to the Sky Azure Bull Python.
With a serious expression, he instructed, "Boil it in clear water once daily, for a total of seven doses per treatment cycle. With continued use, the symptoms will greatly improve."
The Sky Azure Bull Python's sharp eyes locked onto Ye Tian, its expression solemn as it extended its tail to take the paper and examine it carefully.
"Pfft—hahaha!"
Xiao Wu, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but burst into laughter upon seeing Ye Tian's serious demeanor.
But she knew she shouldn't laugh at this moment, so she quickly covered her mouth, trying her best to stifle the sound.
After a while, Xiao Wu finally managed to regain her composure.
Her two pink rabbit ears twitched slightly as she gave Ye Tian a slight bow. "Thank you."
After speaking, she immediately covered her mouth again, trying to suppress another giggle.
"No need to thank me. This is simply my duty as a healer."
Ye Tian waved his hand dismissively.
His mood, however, was not as lighthearted as Xiao Wu's.
On the contrary, he felt a sense of unease.
His biggest thought at the moment was to leave this place as soon as possible.
After studying the prescription for a while, the Sky Azure Bull Python lifted its sharp eyes once more and stared intently at Ye Tian.
In an emotionless tone, it spoke:
"You have helped Sister Xiao Wu, and I should express my gratitude."
As it spoke, the Sky Azure Bull Python presented Ye Tian with a crystalline, jade-like bone.
It continued, "This is your reward—an external spirit bone that fell from a ten-thousand-year-old Tyrant Bear. It is called the 'Tyrant Bear Claw.'"
"This spirit bone, when attached to the hands, grants immense power, capable of slicing through iron like mud. Now, it belongs to you."
"Many thanks, esteemed one."
Ye Tian neither humbled himself nor acted arrogantly as he bowed respectfully.
Then, he extended his right hand, preparing to receive the bone.
Internally, he let out a silent sigh of relief—he could finally leave.
As for the external spirit bone, Ye Tian didn't particularly care about it.
Though it was a good item, it wasn't of much use to him.
"Wait."
To Ye Tian's surprise, just as he was about to touch the external spirit bone, the Sky Azure Bull Python suddenly withdrew it.
Ye Tian's expression froze in shock.
So… they were just messing with him?
At this moment, in the mental notebook of his mind, Ye Tian had already marked a big "X" next to the Sky Azure Bull Python's name.
A two-hundred-thousand-year soul ring would definitely be powerful.
But outwardly, he remained calm, withdrawing his hand with a smile.
"Does esteemed one have any other instructions?"
The Sky Azure Bull Python pushed the prescription paper back toward Ye Tian.
Staring at him with its piercing gaze, it asked, "If you leave now, who will gather these herbs?"
"Exactly! What are your true intentions?"
The Titan Giant Ape stormed up to Ye Tian, shoving him forcefully while roaring a warning.
"Did you really think our spirit bones were so easy to take?"
"Neither Da Ming nor I recognize herbs. You've only given us a prescription—how are we supposed to collect them?"
"Er Ming! Show… some respect to this healer!"
Seeing the situation escalate, Xiao Wu quickly stepped forward to help Ye Tian up, shooting the Titan Giant Ape a glare.
Internally, she felt a sense of helplessness.
Her two companions considered themselves the guardians of the Star Dou Forest.
They loathed humans, the natural enemies of soul beasts.
Er Ming, in particular, was extremely reckless and bore deep hostility toward all humans.
"Hey, are you okay?" Xiao Wu asked apologetically, offering Ye Tian an awkward smile. "Um… what was your name again?"
"Ye Tian."
Ye Tian clutched his chest, a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. His expression remained calm as he propped himself up with his left hand.
The Titan Giant Ape, being a hundred ninety-thousand-year-old soul beast, possessed combat strength that nearly touched the peak of the Douluo Continent.
Even though it hadn't used soul power in its shove just now,
Ye Tian's mortal body was completely incapable of withstanding it.
After being pushed down, Ye Tian felt as if his internal organs had shifted.
Such an injury would take an ordinary person at least ten days to half a month to recover from.
Ye Tian clenched his fist, but he knew he was weak and had no choice but to suppress his anger.
Forcing his expression to remain neutral, he waved Xiao Wu's supporting hand away and said,
"I'm injured. I won't be able to help you collect the herbs."
"But I do remember what they all look like. I can draw them for you."
"Tch, stop pretending! I barely pushed you, and you're already injured?"
The Titan Giant Ape crossed its arms and raised its head high, looking down on Ye Tian with disdain.
"Enough, Titan—say no more!"
The Sky Azure Bull Python shot a cold glance at the Titan Giant Ape and ordered, "Your task today is to patrol the central region. If any soul beasts intrude, report immediately!"
Hearing his elder brother directly call him by name instead of "Er Ming," the Titan Giant Ape realized the gravity of the situation.
Perhaps this human really was injured.
But so what? A human as weak as an ant deserved no sympathy.
Still, without a hint of remorse, he snorted, "Fine, I'm off to patrol!"
Watching the Titan Giant Ape's departing figure, Xiao Wu shook her head.
When would Er Ming ever mature and become as steady as Da Ming?
As his big sister, she truly worried about him.
After a moment, Xiao Wu turned her attention back and flashed a lighthearted smile.
"Ye Tian, are you badly hurt? Sorry about that! Er Ming is just like that."
Ye Tian weakly waved his hand. "I have my own healing pills."
Saying this, he removed his hand from his chest.
From his storage space, he retrieved an ancient-looking gourd.
Holding it in his right hand, he carefully poured out a single, fragrant, golden-colored pill.
This pill was called "Heavenly Blossom Sacred Pill," a top-tier elixir of the highest grade.
While it wasn't as mythical as the legends claimed—capable of bringing the dead back to life or turning the rotten into the miraculous—
It could still pull a person back from the brink of death, especially for internal injuries.
Even with severe wounds, consuming a Heavenly Blossom Sacred Pill could drag someone back from the gates of hell.
For Ye Tian, who had only suffered mild internal injuries, the pill would nearly instantly heal him.
He placed the pill in his mouth, and the moment it touched his tongue—
It transformed into a scorching, golden energy flow that coursed through his meridians, spreading across his entire body.
Wherever the golden energy passed, his displaced organs realigned.
Clotted blood was reabsorbed into his veins.
As he consumed the Heavenly Blossom Sacred Pill, a faint golden glow radiated from his body.
This was due to Ye Tian's lack of cultivation—he couldn't fully absorb the pill's energy.
The fragrance of lotus blossoms wafted through the air.
Seeing Ye Tian's injuries heal at a visible rate, Xiao Wu blinked in disbelief.
This golden-colored pill… was way too miraculous!
