Chapter 2829: I Am Reluctant To Explain Everything That I Do (2)
Even if there was any punishment, he was not worried. He was willing to take the risk to regain his freedom, even if that meant depleting half of his spiritual power.
In fact, it was Gu Xijiu who seemed more troubled. "I am worried..." The catastrophe would usually be harmless for a celestial or divine being. However, her health was obviously not at its finest. She might get killed by the heavenly lightning if struck.
She could not tell him the truth, but Di Fuyi already knew what she was thinking. He said sarcastically, "As a Divine Lord, are you really worried about a few streaks of lightning?"
Gu Xijiu insisted on keeping her deterioration as a secret. She could not tell him that she was already dying, albeit slowly. "I have my own reasons. I hereby reassure you that I will not use my status as your master to make you do anything. If you are reluctant to announce it publicly, we can keep this between us. Also, I will stop using the controlling spell." This was the best she could do.
Filled with guilt, she decided to give him a little something in return. She then took out a shiny, purplish pill from her storage bag. "This is the Marrow Washing Purple pill. Take one pill, and it will fuel your spiritual power, equivalent to a thousand years worth of cultivation."
There was only one pill left, as it was produced from an extremely rare kind of herb from almost tens of thousands of years ago. She did not remember most of the things in her distant past, but the pill had made a profound impression on her as its production was a rather tricky process, thus making it so valuable. She had been through a terrible time trying to produce the pill.
Only under three strict conditions could the pill be produced. Firstly, she needed to channel her full strength to create a steady flow of firepower. Secondly, all kinds of rare herbs were required in the process. Lastly, she must have the right alchemy skills to produce the pill.
