Bitter Sea Green Lotus

"Say it." Yun Qingyan glanced at it from the corner of her eyes.

"I feel that…every time you smile like that, someone will be in deep trouble… So if you continue looking like that, it makes me a little panicky."

The only person in the room besides its master was itself… So who would be the one in deep trouble? Ahem, ahem…

"Hoho, you've thought too much into it." Yun Qingyan wiped the vengeful smile off her face and went back to looking friendly again. "Just three Cloud Dragons? No problem. It's just that your master has lost all of her cultivation levels, so it's going to be a bit difficult to hunt down any Cloud Dragons."

Yun Qingyan started to look glum. "I don't know why this body can't seem to cultivate at all. You have to help me take a look. Otherwise, so long as I can't get back to Godly Sovereign level, you won't be able to eat any sweet and sour Cloud Dragons."

The spirit of the Magic Ring instantly exploded in fury when it heard that it might not be able to eat its favorite food.

"What?!"

Yun Qingyan then told the black furball about the green ball of gas within her body.

The spirit of the Magic Ring often seemed ludicrous, lazy, and hungry, but it did know quite a bit and knew even more things than many of those regarded as elders. In her previous life, she had managed to level up smoothly because of its help.

"A green ball of gas? It absorbs your Star Power, nutrition, and life force?"

When it came to serious matters, the black furball no longer jumped around playfully and started to look grim instead.

"Master, besides this green ball of gas, do you feel anything else? For example…have you felt a sharp pain in your bone marrow and energy channels for a few days every month that would disappear very quickly?"

A sharp pain?

Yun Qingyan checked through the memories of the previous owner of the body, and her expression immediately became grim. "It's true. That has happened."

The little black furball instantly jumped up. "Check the inside of your body carefully and look into your bone marrow and energy channels. Is there some black gas hiding in there?"

Yun Qingyan checked her bone marrow and energy channels as instructed. She focused her immense amount of energy on scanning every single inch.

In no time, Yun Qingyan discovered that something was very wrong. This body's bone marrow and energy channels seemed to be rotting away.

There was a small patch of black gas hovering in some very tiny hidden areas of the body, and it made the area it covered so rotten that it had turned black. The sight of it made her hair stand on end.

Yun Qingyan came out of her observation mode, and her expression became even grimmer than before. "That's right. And this body has rotted away very badly."

At this rate, in another few years, this body would still die even without Su Ling doing anything.

"Master, you've accused it wrongly!" the black furball said as it jumped up.

"What?" Yun Qingyan looked at the black furball in confusion.

"If I didn't guess wrong, the green ball of gas inside your body should be a Green Lotus Seed."

"Green Lotus Seed? As in a Bitter Sea Green Lotus?" Yun Qingyan was surprised to hear this.

A Bitter Sea Green Lotus was a product of the forces of heaven, earth, the sun, and the moon. It was a pure and untainted sacred item that was used to get rid of evil filth.

Even when she was a Godly Sovereign, she had only heard about this item but had never seen it before herself.

Only now, this black furball was telling her that this treasured item that even Godly Sovereigns and Godly Emperors had heard about and never seen before was actually inside her own body?

"That's right." The black furball nodded. "But I don't know if I should say that you're too lucky or too unlucky."

"What do you mean by that?" Yun Qingyan still had her doubts about this.

Since it was a sacred and pure item, why would it swallow up her Star Power?

"Master, besides the Green Lotus Seed, your body probably carries another sort of strong poison. Since a Green Lotus Seed is effective in removing any filth, then any simple poison should not prove to be a problem for it. But the Green Lotus Seed within your body is an underdeveloped Green Lotus Seed, and the poison within your body is too strong. It can only rely on consuming your Star Power, nutrition, and life force to feed itself to become strong enough to prevent the poison from completely consuming your body instead. Without it, this body should have already been poisoned. And the entire body, along with its bones, would have melted into a puddle of black water," the black furball explained.

Melt into a puddle of black water? What a vicious poison!

Yun Qingyan's heart sank a little. Who could have planted such a vicious poison into this body?
