I've announced that I'm destined to have many children, and my father has bestowed upon me

A simple sentence caused Ye Shenglin's defenses to crumble instantly. She turned her head away, not daring to look Zhao Chen'an in the eye again.

"Alright, stop it."

Zhao Chen'an clapped his hands, trying to lighten the mood:

"Things haven't gotten to the worst yet. That old devil's sudden departure must mean he encountered something extremely urgent that he had to handle personally. This is our chance."

"Before he comes back, I'll try to see if I can break this damn thing."

Seeing Zhao Chen'an so calm, Xiao Chuchu and Ye Shenglin gradually calmed down and dared not disturb him any further.

Zhao Chen'an walked to the dark light screen, reached out his hand, and carefully touched it.

The sensation transmitted through my fingertips was an indestructible texture, as if I were touching not energy, but a piece of black iron that had been refined for ten thousand years.

He channeled his inner power, a wisp of golden blood energy coiling around his fingertips, attempting to penetrate them.

However, the moment the golden power touched the black light barrier, it was instantly swallowed and dissolved by a cold and eerie force, without causing the slightest ripple.

Zhao Chen'an frowned.

This old fellow's mastery of formations and restrictions far exceeded his imagination.

This restriction is not merely a simple power blockade; it also contains some kind of fundamental principle that he cannot comprehend.

Unconvinced, he activated the "Great Dao Heavenly Evolution Scripture" once more, his eyes gleaming with divine light as he began to carefully observe the structure of the restrictive formation.

Countless fine runes flowed deep within the black light curtain.

They are interconnected, forming a series of mysterious and complex arrays, which are nested within each other, layer upon layer, forming a perfect and closed whole.

This is absolutely a top-tier formation!

Moreover, after that old devil's final reinforcement, its sturdiness has probably reached the peak of the Heavenly Grade!

To forcefully break through it, one would need absolute power at the peak of the Dragon Transformation Realm to break through the law with force; otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible.

Zhao Chen'an's heart sank.

It seems there's no hope of relying on myself alone.

Just when he was at his wit's end, a flash of inspiration struck him.

He remembered the spoils he had obtained after killing the black dragon.

That rare and precious artifact of heaven and earth, graded as yellow!

With a thought, a water sphere, entirely blue and about the size of a fist, appeared out of thin air in his palm.

The moment the water sphere appeared, the air in the entire stone chamber seemed to become fresh and moist, and a surge of vitality rushed towards us.

This aura...

Zhao Chen'an probed into it with his divine sense and carefully sensed it.

It lacked the expected violent water-based power and had no offensive attributes.

In his perception, this water sphere was like a pure heart of life, containing a continuous stream of warm and gentle life energy!

Heal!

Its function is actually to cure!

Zhao Chen'an suddenly realized.

No wonder that black dragon in the Dragon Transformation Realm failed to refine it even after decades of trying.

The dragon is a cold and violent creature, while the spiritual water of heaven and earth is the purest and gentlest source of life. The two have opposing attributes, so how could it possibly absorb it!

This is simply the most amazing healing medicine in the world!

"The Fountain of Life..."

Zhao Chen'an murmured to himself, giving this precious spiritual object a name.

Immediately afterward, a thought flashed through his mind like lightning.

Life energy...healing...

Mo Yuqing!

Xiao Chuchu's master is the fairy of the Hunyuan Sect who was seriously injured and fell into a deep sleep in order to kill the Great Xia Ancestor!

Her injuries are a loss of the very essence of life!

Isn't this fountain of life a divine object tailor-made for her?

Thinking of this, Zhao Chen'an could no longer suppress his excitement.

He immediately removed a seemingly ordinary wooden hairpin from his hair bun.

This earth-grade magic artifact was the storage artifact he used to house Mo Yuqing.

As he infused his magic power, a soft white light emanated from the wooden hairpin.

The next moment, a figure in white appeared silently in the center of the stone chamber.

It was Mo Yuqing who had fallen into a deep sleep.

She lay quietly on the ground, her eyes closed, her face exquisitely beautiful, yet devoid of color, her breath as faint as a candle flickering in the wind, as if she might be extinguished at any moment.

"Master!"

Xiao Chuchu exclaimed in surprise, her eyes filled with worry.

Zhao Chen'an didn't speak. He carefully walked to Mo Yuqing's side, carrying the Fountain of Life.

Then she crouched down and gently suspended the azure water ball above her chest.

He separated a wisp of his divine sense and carefully guided the energy in the Fountain of Life, transforming it into a blue water line thinner than a strand of hair, which he slowly poured into Mo Yuqing's body.

Just then, outside the stone chamber, in a void layer that no one could perceive.

A woman in a white dress stood quietly, her figure blending perfectly with the space, as if she had been there since time immemorial.

When she saw Zhao Chen'an release Mo Yuqing, a ripple finally appeared in her usually calm eyes.

"Junior sister..."

When she saw Zhao Chen'an use that yellow-grade spiritual water to heal Mo Yuqing, the slight ripple in her eyes transformed into a touch of concern and...

A barely perceptible hint of approval.

She could tell that Mo Yuqing's injuries were so severe that he was on the verge of death, clinging to life by sheer willpower.

Although the spiritual item Zhao Chen'an took out was not of high grade, its life essence was extremely pure, which was exactly what he needed.

Although it was impossible to wake Mo Yuqing up immediately.

But at least she was certain that Mo Yuqing was safe and that these three juniors had no intention of harming her junior sister.

Perhaps one of them is the disciple she once mentioned who was taken in from a small place.

only……

Her gaze swept over the dark light barrier that trapped the three of them.

Looking directly at the sea beyond the Nine Islands of Star Sea, countless demonic beasts were ferociously attacking the island's protective formation!

Can't wait any longer.

A resolute glint flashed in the woman's clear eyes.

With a mission from her sect and the situation urgent, she had to take action.

However, it's still possible to lend them a hand.

She slowly raised a slender finger and gently touched the dark barrier of light across the endless void.

There was no earth-shattering sound, nor dazzling brilliance.

Inside the stone chamber.

Zhao Chen'an was concentrating on channeling life force into Mo Yuqing when he suddenly felt a sense of relaxation throughout his body.

That seemingly indestructible, pitch-black light barrier that filled him with despair was like a soap bubble that had been popped.

It shattered silently, turning into countless black specks of light, and then completely vanished into nothingness.

The restriction... is broken?

Zhao Chen'an was startled and instinctively looked up.

In a flash, out of the corner of his eye, he seemed to catch a fleeting glimpse of a white-clad figure.

Zhao Chen'an recognized that figure all too well!

It's her again!

That mysterious fairy I saw on the flying boat!

Who is she?

Why help yourself again and again?

A storm raged in Zhao Chen'an's heart.

"The restriction...the restriction has disappeared!"

Xiao Chuchu and Ye Shenglin also realized what was happening, their faces filled with unbelievable surprise.

However, Zhao Chen'an stared blankly in the direction where the white figure disappeared, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
