I am really not a medical immortal.-Chapter 1549 - 1548: Three Methods

"Brother Xu, since that ancestor was confident enough to bring this Ruoshui River over when he was in the Nascent Soul Realm, does that mean as long as we reach the Nascent Soul Realm, we can cross this Ruoshui River?" Zi Wuling asked.

"Ah! No, that’s not right!" Zhang Xiaohao furrowed his brows.

"Brother Xu, what’s wrong? Did I say something incorrect?" Zi Wuling inquired.

"It’s not that you said something wrong; it’s that we’ve always fallen into a misconception!" A flash of insight appeared in Zhang Xiaohao’s eyes.

"Brother Xu, what misconception have we fallen into? Haven’t you always been following the map?" Zi Wuling looked puzzled.

"This Ruoshui River definitely wasn’t left here by someone in the Nascent Soul Realm! If I’m not mistaken, this Ruoshui River was forcibly relocated here by someone at their peak using Great Divine Power and powerful Mana." Zhang Xiaohao said each word seriously.

"Ah! Brother, Brother Xu, is this true? If so, what was the purpose of doing this?"

"I don’t know for now, but, wait until we cross the Ruoshui River, when we reach the final step, the mystery will be revealed!" Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Brother Xu, what do we do now?" Zi Wuling asked.

"According to legend, the Ruoshui River is not impossible to cross. However, to traverse the Ruoshui River, I know of three methods, and I don’t know about any others." Zhang Xiaohao recalled a TV series he had watched on Earth.

In it, the Marshal of the Heavenly Canopy, Zhu Bajie, also known as the Second Brother, was unafraid of Ruoshui, relying on a world-connecting Divine Skill! Besides the Second Brother, there’s also Ruoshui itself, which has evolved over a long period; once it awakens spiritual intelligence, it can naturally control these weak waters, and there’s no fear! Aside from the above two methods, there’s another used by the Dragon Clan Princess, which involves blowing into a shell, producing a Seven-Colored Rainbow Bridge, and following it allows safe passage.

"Brother Xu, what are the three methods?" Zi Wuling asked urgently.

"The first method is the Ruoshui Spirit! Ruoshui awakens its spiritual intelligence and transforms into a human through cultivation! The second method is to master a Heavenly Defying Divine Skill, becoming unafraid of Ruoshui, and naturally allowing safe passage through it. The third method is the simplest: use a shell to produce a Seven-Colored Rainbow Bridge, and you can cross! Besides these, there is no other method." Zhang Xiaohao explained solemnly.

"Ah! The first and second methods are obviously not suitable for us, but for the third method, Brother Xu, what kind of shell do you need to produce a Seven-Colored Rainbow Bridge?" Zi Wuling asked urgently.

"True Dragon Shell! The shell that a True Dragon always wears close to them, after being cleansed by True Dragon Qi over the years, undergoes a fundamental change, and the Seven-Colored Rainbow Bridge it produces can safely allow passage across the Ruoshui River." Zhang Xiaohao said.

"But Brother Xu, True Dragons are formidable beings belonging to the True Spirit Clan; even the weakest True Dragon is at the Great Mahayana Realm, and with their innate Divine Skills of the True Dragon Clan, it’s safe to say they’re invincible in a one-on-one fight." Zi Wuling said, furrowing her brows.

"Hehe." Zhang Xiaohao smiled faintly.

A True Dragon was still dormant within his left arm; if Zi Wuling knew, she would probably be even more astonished!

"Brother Xu, why are you smiling?" Zi Wuling asked, puzzled.

"Step back, I need to give it a try!" A flash of determination appeared in Zhang Xiaohao’s eyes.

No matter what, he couldn’t be sealed here, and besides, Zhang Xiaohao was very confident in the two Cultivation Techniques he practiced, which had ranked first and second on the Chaos Spirit List, so it wasn’t a joke.

"Ah! Brother Xu, do you have some powerful Cultivation Technique on you?" Zi Wuling asked, blinking her eyes.

"Whether it’s a powerful Cultivation Technique, I don’t know for now, but at the very least, I have to try!" Zhang Xiaohao told a lie.

He didn’t reveal to her that he practiced the Shennong Reincarnation Scripture and Three Pure Ones Scripture; it wasn’t because he didn’t trust her, but because these two scriptures were involved in matters too significant, and a slight carelessness could invite the danger of extermination.

"Brother Xu, rest assured! I won’t tell anyone about this." Zi Wuling said.

With that, she tapped her waist with one hand, taking out an entirely snow-white jade box, opening it to reveal an entirely snow-white Elixir inside.

Zi Wuling pinched the Elixir with her two delicate jade fingers.

"Brother Xu, this Elixir is called Snow Silkworm Forget God Pill. After consuming it, everything that happened within the last two hours will be entirely forgotten!"

With that, Zi Wuling swallowed the Elixir before Zhang Xiaohao could react.

"Alas, was that really necessary?" Zhang Xiaohao sighed softly.

Looking at the unconscious Zi Wuling lying on the ground, Zhang Xiaohao placed her in a soft spot and stood up from the ground, heading towards the Ruoshui River.

"Shennong Reincarnation Scripture—Start operating for me!" Zhang Xiaohao roared lowly.

Buzz!

An overwhelming golden Spiritual Energy, with the comprehensive operation of Zhang Xiaohao’s Shennong Reincarnation Scripture, completely enveloped him, and the dense golden light shot around, looking like a True Immortal.

With a step, Zhang Xiaohao fearlessly approached the Ruoshui River.

Gradually, the distance between Zhang Xiaohao and the Ruoshui River was narrowing, and after a dozen breaths, Zhang Xiaohao had reached the Ruoshui River’s edge.

"I hope you don’t disappoint me!" Zhang Xiaohao said solemnly.

One step forward, he had entered the Ruoshui River, which wasn’t deep, only fifty centimeters, reaching Zhang Xiaohao’s calf.

The strange suction force didn’t happen; Zhang Xiaohao still stood safely within the Ruoshui River.

All around him, the Shennong Reincarnation Scripture was frantically operating, dyeing the river water a hot golden color, like a paradise beyond the human world.

"It indeed works!" Zhang Xiaohao said.

At once, he started walking towards the other side of the river, and the three-and-a-half-meter width was quickly crossed.

On the shore, Zhang Xiaohao carefully felt the changes within himself; there was no serious problem. His heart, which had been on edge, finally relaxed as he glanced at Zi Wuling on the other side of the Ruoshui River. With a step, he entered the Ruoshui River again, walked to the other side, took Zi Wuling up in a princess hold, and headed back across the river.

After ten breaths, Zhang Xiaohao stopped on the other side of the river with Zi Wuling in his arms.

With a single hand gesture, he took out a tent, laid a tiger skin on the ground, placed Zi Wuling on it, and sat at the tent entrance, calmly looking at the sky.

An hour later.

"Hmm? Where am I? Brother Xu, don’t leave me!" Zi Wuling murmured as she quickly sat up from the tent.
