"This power is only to unlock the potential of the Sacred Body?"

Li Yu looked at the people unconscious on the hill, especially lingering on Ye Fan for a moment, then chuckled. "Since you're all passed out, I'll go collect some herbs!"

With a flash of light, Li Yu's figure instantly shot out.

On each of the nine peaks of the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, there are divine springs and divine herbs. These are divided pieces of the Immortal Medicine. Such treasures, how could Li Yu pass them up?

Concealing his light, Li Yu's figure appeared on the peak where the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin had fallen.

"Where are the divine springs and divine herbs?"

Li Yu looked around but found nothing.

"Forget it, I don't feel like searching myself. System, mark the locations of the divine herbs on the nine peaks."

As soon as Li Yu issued the order, the system immediately marked the locations of the divine herbs.

"So they're here?"

Li Yu smiled and walked toward the location of the divine herbs.

It was a clearing surrounded by old vines. In the center was a spring about one meter across, with clear, transparent water bubbling up.

Next to the spring grew a row of two-foot-tall trees with unusual shapes. Each leaf looked like a palm. As the breeze blew, the green palms seemed to wave.

At the top of the small trees hung blood-red fruits, each the size of an egg, crystal clear, like red gems.

As he approached the spring, a refreshing fragrance wafted over, making Li Yu feel rejuvenated.

"It's indeed the Immortal Medicine!"

Li Yu was overjoyed and quickly stepped forward.

"You only need to collect the fruits from the Immortal Medicine. As for the divine spring, let's take half of it first. I shouldn't be too greedy; after all, this belongs to someone. If I provoke the ruthless person, I'm done for!"

With a wave of his hand, the system automatically collected thirteen blood-red fruits and half of the divine spring.

"Eight more to go!"

Li Yu's figure flickered, and he appeared on another peak.

Ahead was a spring about two meters wide, with divine light glimmering in the clear water, incredibly mystical.

Next to the spring grew eleven plants resembling dwarf pines, all green like jade sculptures. At the top of each tree hung a golden fruit the size of a longan.

"Nice! Nice!"

Li Yu chuckled, collected the fruits and half of the divine spring with a wave, and left.

Soon, Li Yu's figure traveled to all nine peaks, collecting all the divine herbs and springs before leisurely returning to where everyone was unconscious.

By then, the people on the hill were gradually waking up.

"Ah!"

A piercing scream woke Zhou Yi.

"What's happening?"

Zhou Yi got up and looked toward the scream, only to be stunned. "What's going on?"

All around him were elderly people with wrinkled skin and gray hair, looking like they were at death's door.

"What is"

Zhou Yi was about to ask when he noticed his own shriveled hands and wrinkled skin, and he was shocked. "Have I become like this too?"

"Book Spirit, what's going on? Didn't you say we would be reborn? How did we end up like this?"

Zhou Yi was furious, questioning the Book Spirit angrily.

"Your Majesty, using life force to unlock potential naturally results in excessive life force consumption. This is not surprising," the Book Spirit replied calmly.

"This isn't surprising? How long can I live like this? What's the point of potential if I'm dead?"

Zhou Yi was panicking.

"Why is this happening?"

"Why have I become like this?"

"Ah!"

By now, others were also waking up, realizing the changes in themselves and others. Cries and shouts filled the air.

"It's definitely that demon!"

Liu Yun Zhi struggled to stand, pointing at Zhou Yi and gritting his teeth. "It's that demon who used evil magic to drain our vitality. Zhou Yi, did you collude with that demon to harm us?"

"You're crazy!"

Zhou Yi glared at Liu Yun Zhi. "Can't you see I'm the same as you? Draining vitality, you've read too many ghost stories!"

"If it's not you, then who? If that demon hadn't tricked us into coming here, how would we have ended up like this? Zhou Yi, you have to take responsibility."

Liu Yun Zhi stared at Zhou Yi with hatred, wishing he could tear him apart.

"Don't jump to conclusions."

At this moment, Ye Fan stepped forward to stop Liu Yun Zhi.

"You"

Zhou Yi looked at Ye Fan, too surprised to speak.

Ye Fan also looked elderly with white hair, but he was glowing with health, looking like a childlike old man.

"Yes, I find it strange too."

Ye Fan shook his head helplessly. "Though I've turned white-haired, I feel better than before. There must be something peculiar."

"Peculiar? Ye Fan, are you also colluding with that demon?"

Liu Yun Zhi looked at Ye Fan with a twisted expression. "Ye Fan, you must have colluded with that demon, draining our vitality and keeping some for yourself. That must be it!"

"Hmph!"

Ye Fan snorted and ignored Liu Yun Zhi.

"Book Spirit, what's going on with Ye Fan?"

Zhou Yi asked the Book Spirit, puzzled by Ye Fan's condition.

"Your Majesty, Ye Fan is a Sacred Body. His unique physique allows him to benefit even after consuming his life force."

The Book Spirit displayed a scroll-like light curtain listing the Sacred Body's attributes.

"Unparalleled? Legendary?"

Seeing those words, Zhou Yi had a complicated expression. Ye Fan's physique was that extraordinary?

Seeing the Sacred Body was now unsuitable for cultivation, Zhou Yi finally relaxed. The title of the Indestructible Golden Body was intimidating.

"Oh? You're all awake? Hmm, you've unlocked your potential, not bad."

A ray of light descended, and Li Yu's figure appeared on the hill.

"You demon, how dare you do this to us! You will die a horrible death!"

Liu Yun Zhi roared in anger, pointing at Li Yu and cursing.

"Huh?"

Li Yu glanced at Liu Yun Zhi, frowned, and sighed. "With such a mentality, you won't achieve much. If I were truly a demon, wouldn't talking to me like this be courting death? Over-ambitious and imprudent, your path will be short."

Ignoring Liu Yun Zhi, Li Yu turned to the others. "Everyone, do you want to rejuvenate?"

"Ah? We can rejuvenate?"

"Great! Wonderful!"

"Thank you, Immortal! Thank you, Immortal!"

Hearing Li Yu's words, everyone was overjoyed.
