Chapter 178: Passing the Trial

Guo Ke covered his arm, and the blood beads fell drop by drop, like a pearl necklace with a broken thread. He gritted his teeth, his eyes oozing a calm look, and he ran forward, trying not to make a sound, while analyzing the best escape route.

Behind him, a dull beast roar rang out, blasting in his ears like a talisman. Guo Ke didn't say a word, but the hand holding his arm inadvertently pushed harder, and the muddy water splashed under his feet and fell silently.

He knew in his heart that this was a test given to them by Master Li, so he had to do his best to complete it, and he had to complete it well. He is not a stuffy character, he is still very grateful for Li Wuming's kindness, and naturally he will not want to live up to his hopes.

Behind him was the Tortoise. The body of this spirit beast in the early stage of the Qi cultivation period is like a small hill, and it is not good at speed, so the pressure on Guo Ke is not so great. The Stygian Turtle manipulates a gray-white mist, and Guo Ke's arm was injured by this.

Guo Ke gritted his teeth and ran forward, suddenly stumbled, tripped over a raised tree root under his feet, his body suddenly couldn't grasp his balance, fell to the ground, rolled twice, and the splashed leaves fell like raindrops.

Guo Ke collapsed on the ground, gasping for two breaths, his voice seemed to be swallowed up by the darkness around him, and disappeared. The corners of his eyes were a little blurry, and his whole body ached, only the aura in the dantian brought him a trace of warmth.

In the pain that his bones seemed to fall apart, he had a strange thought: "It turns out ...... If you become an immortal cultivator, you will also be tripped up. The thought amused him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and he smiled with some self-deprecation.

Taking two deep breaths, he struggled to his feet, the broken leaves scattered with dust, like flying flakes floating in the air. He glanced around vigilantly, and saw that the turtle was still some distance from him, and he couldn't help but let out a long breath.

The wound on his arm began to hurt again, making the corners of Guo Ke's eyes tremble. A phantom of Li Wuming appeared in front of his eyes, smiling at him, his eyes seemed to shine with approval, and it seemed that he was ...... Very satisfied.

It was as if it had injected new strength into him. He stepped along, gritting his teeth, and rushed forward, dust and fallen leaves splashing under his feet. The Qi Cultivation Monk's astonishing physical strength was finally brought into play, and he shuttled through the gaps between the trees like a shadow.

The wound seemed to be no longer painful, and his self-confidence was restored to him. He folded his arms and strode forward, his eyes shining as if he had seen the dawn. At that moment, another muffled roar rang out.

"Damn, how did you get so close all of a sudden?" Guo Ke opened his mouth wide in shock as if he couldn't believe it. Drops of fine sweat appeared on his forehead, and he suppressed the panic in his heart, trying to calmly think of a way to get out.

But the more he thought about it, the more desperate he became, and countless threads of thought appeared and shattered in his mind, but there was no way to do it. Li Wuming restricted them from using spells, which was to extinguish the possibility of resistance, and they could only choose to escape.

Just when he was in despair, a white jade-like palm appeared out of thin air and grabbed Guo Ke. He looked over in amazement and found that Wen Jin's delicate face had appeared like a phantom from the side and grabbed his arm.

"Follow me." Wen Jin's voice was not loud, but it was unusually clear. Before Guo Ke could react, he was grabbed by Wen Jin, and ran in one direction like a shadow, and the trees turned into afterimages, speeding past them on both sides.

"This is going to ......" Guo Ke opened his mouth to ask, and closed his mouth in amusement. Because he saw the target in front of him, a strange cliff that looked like a demon's minions. Just when he was full of doubts, Wen Jin had already dragged him to the front of the cliff.

"There, do you see that?" Wen Jin asked, while secretly observing everything around him with his divine sense. After his divine consciousness was strengthened by the Concentration Jade, it covered more than ten miles, and he could reflect everything in it like a mirror.

"Luckily, the turtle didn't get too close." Wen Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Guo Ke next to him squinted his eyes and quickly swept over the cliff like an eagle, and soon discovered the strangeness. "A cave?" He asked, not quite surely.

"yes, come in." Wen Jin dragged Guo Ke and rushed into the cave like the wind. The cave was pitch black, except for one shining light, which was a bonfire, blazing, and the dim light illuminated the stone wall next to it.

The rough stone walls reflected yellow light, intersecting and parting with the swaying of the flames, as if the light was chasing the light. On the rock next to the flames, You Jiao'er sat upright, one hand on her cheek, not knowing what she was thinking.

Waiting for Wen Jin and Guo Ke to drill in, You Jiao'er looked at it in surprise, waved her white arm at the two of them, and jumped off the rock. "How's it going, is there any danger, are you hurt?"

Immediately, her gaze fell on Guo Ke's arm, where there was an earthworm-like wound that was dripping blood. With a worried look on her face, she moved her lotus step lightly and stretched out her hand, wanting to use the hydrotherapy technique.

"Wait." Wen Jin's voice was not loud, but it echoed in the cave one after another, as if many of him were talking at the same time, "Li Wuming...... Master Li said that you can't use the magic formula, so it's best not to use it. ”

You Jiao'er's watery eyes flickered, and she asked worriedly, "But, what about Guo Ke's injury?" He can't go on like this, his wounds will be infected, is there nothing he can do now? ”

"It's okay, the physique of an immortal cultivator is not as fragile as you think, this kind of injury will be fine in a day and a half." Wen Jin grinned, revealing his white jade-like teeth, "Moreover, the mountain people have their own tricks, and I have prepared a method." ”

He took out a few inconspicuous grass plants from behind him, shook them in front of You Jiao'er and Guo Ke, and said with a smile: "Don't think that these plants that can be seen everywhere are useless, they are like the best medicine for injuries, and they can be turned into liquid medicine with appropriate methods." ”

"However, if it weren't for the damn Li Wuming still banning the pill, there should have been a better choice." Wen Jin said through gritted teeth. Guo Ke and You Jiao'er next to them pretended not to hear and looked left and right.

"Tsk, don't talk about it." Wen Jin sighed, rubbed the herb with both hands, and immediately set it on fire. The crimson flame envelops the herb, gradually concentrating it into a liquid while burning the impurities into a powder.

"Here, let me see." Wen Jin grabbed Guo Ke's shoulder, froze the liquid suspended in his hand, cooled it down, and then evenly applied it to Guo Ke's wound.
