Chapter 1811

When Shi Ji brought Zhuowen back to the Primal Chaos Divine Temple, the Divine Master Dou Hua personally welcomed them. After knowing that the Master of the Divine Tomb had agreed to open up the Primal Battlefield, the smile on Dou Hua's face became even wider and he became even more enthusiastic towards Shi Ji.In the dark hall, there was a rather large altar. In front of the altar, Old Man Gu stood quietly with his hands behind his back. The blue flames kept floating in the altar, illuminating Old Man Gu's face. It looked extremely strange.Behind Old Man Gu, Zhuowen looked rather nervous. He silently looked at Old Man Gu's back. Beside Zhuowen stood Shi Ji and the Divine Master Dou Hua also stood in front of the hall.Beside Zhuowen, there was a crystal coffin floating quietly. In the crystal coffin, a beautiful face lay peacefully, as if she had fallen into a deep sleep.The hall was silent. The three of them looked at Old Man Gu."Little friend, give me the Nine Soul Lotus Root. I need to refine the Nine Soul Lotus Root with the fire in my Sea of Consciousness. After that, I will reconstruct a physical body for your wife that is compatible with her soul," Old Man Gu suddenly said.Zhuowen nodded and handed the Nine Soul Lotus Root to Old Man Gu without hesitation.Old Man Gu looked at the Nine Soul Lotus Root with admiration in his eyes. After that, he directly threw the Nine Soul Lotus Root into the blue flames on the altar.Old Man Gu refined the Nine Soul Lotus Root for a total of nine days. After that, Zhuowen realized that the Nine Soul Lotus Root had the shape of a human skeleton after being refined.Obviously, Old Man Gu was preparing to refine the Nine Soul Lotus Root into a human skeleton.When the skeleton was completely refined, Old Man Gu flicked his finger and took out various precious materials from his Spirit Ring.Zhuowen looked over and realized that most of the materials were warm medicinal herbs.Under Old Man Gu's control, the medicinal herbs turned into balls of medicinal liquid and gathered around the exposed skeleton. They began to squirm around the skeleton.Elder Gu refined it for another 63 days. The bones on the blue flames had long been replaced by a graceful body. However, the body was blood-red in color, as if there was no skin. It looked extremely strange.Suddenly, Elder Gu waved his sleeve, and the blue flames on the altar immediately dispersed, turning into ninety-nine blue flames that surrounded the altar."Zhuowen, you are someone close to this woman. The final step requires someone close to her to use your lifespan to form her skin and flesh, completing the final step of forming her body. Are you willing to sacrifice your lifespan to save her?"Ninety-nine blue flames lingered around the altar like ninety-nine stars. Old Gu's eyes flickered as he stared at Zhuowen and asked indifferently.Shi Ji and Dou Hua were both moved. Although their cultivation had reached the level of Saints and their lifespans were as long as the heavens and earth, it did not mean that the lifespans of Saints were endless. There was an end to it.Even the heavens and earth would dry up, let alone Saints. Only with sufficient lifespan would one be able to break through to higher realms in the future.Lifespan was sometimes more important than cultivation. It was the foundation of a martial artist. Even for those close to them, very few people would sacrifice their lifespan to save the lives of those close to them.Moreover, Elder Gu had never said that he was absolutely certain that he could save Mu Chenxue. In Shi Ji and Dou Hua's eyes, it was not worth it for Zhuowen to use his lifespan to form her skin and flesh."It's fine if you're unwilling. I still have a method that can completely reconstruct the body. However, I can't guarantee that the body will be compatible with the woman's collapsing soul," Elder Gu glanced at Zhuowen indifferently and said with some mockery.Zhuowen gently stared at the woman in the crystal coffin beside him. He said, "You've done far too much for me all this time. It's time for me to do something for you."Zhuowen gently stroked the surface of the crystal coffin. The part he touched was the woman's beautiful face. Although there was a layer of crystal between them, Zhuowen's gentle actions seemed like he was really stroking the woman's face.After that, Zhuo Wen slowly raised his head and tapped the space between his eyebrows with his right hand. He gathered his lifespan at the tip of his right hand and pointed it at the altar. Milky white lifespan suddenly erupted and surged into the body.However, what Zhuowen did not see was that the eyelids of the woman in the crystal coffin twitched unnoticeably the moment he poured his lifespan into the body. It was as if she wanted to open her eyes as much as she could, but her eyelids were too heavy and she could not open them.Shi Ji and Dou Hua were rather moved as they looked at the young man who had offered his lifespan without hesitation. Elder Gu even exclaimed in surprise before nodding slightly."The ninety-nine sparks in the surroundings represent ninety-nine days. You must endure for ninety-nine days. If you fail midway, this body will become a complete failure and all your previous efforts will be in vain," Elder Gu said indifferently.Shi Ji frowned slightly and said coldly, "Ninety-nine days?That's too long. Even if Zhuowen is an Earthly Immortal with a long lifespan, ninety-nine days is still a bit of a stretch, right? "Elder Gu's eyes flickered as he said, "If this kid can endure for ninety-nine days, I will take out a Life Vitality Pill to replenish a portion of Zhuowen's lifespan."Shi Ji wanted to say something but was interrupted by Zhuowen, "Senior Shi Ji, don't worry. I can endure for ninety-nine days. I hope the three of you can wait outside the hall during these ninety-nine days so that I won't be distracted."Shi Ji didn't say anything when he heard Zhuowen's words. Instead, he waved his sleeve and left the hall.Dou Hua nodded at Elder Gu and also left the hall. Soon, only Zhuowen's lonely figure and the crystal coffin that floated beside him remained in the vast and empty hall."Chen Xue, we'll be able to meet very soon!"Zhuowen lowered his head and quietly looked at the beautiful woman in the crystal coffin. The smile on the corner of his mouth became gentler but his face became paler and paler. His skin also became more and more wrinkled.However, what Zhuowen didn't notice was that at the corner of the woman's right eye, an extremely fine crystal teardrop silently slid down …The ninety-nine days quickly passed. Shi Ji, Elder Gu and Dou Hua pushed open the door and slowly walked in. They saw that the ninety-nine sparks around the altar in the center of the hall had completely disappeared.There was a graceful woman lying on top of the altar. This woman was covered in a thin white veil. Her eyes were slightly closed and the aura coming from her body was extremely faint.There was a crystal coffin floating under the altar. There was also a woman silently lying inside the crystal coffin. If one looked carefully, this woman's appearance was exactly the same as the woman on the altar.Beside the crystal coffin, there was a slightly stooped figure silently standing there. He raised his head and silently stared at the woman on the altar, just like a stone statue.The moment Shi Ji saw this figure, his pupils couldn't help shrinking. He saw that this figure had white hair and his skin was completely wrinkled. He looked like an eighty to ninety year old man.From the wrinkled face, one could vaguely see Zhuowen's shadow.Shi Ji took a step forward and instantly arrived in front of Zhuowen. He said in a deep voice, "Zhuowen, are you alright?"Zhuowen slowly turned his head and looked at Shi Ji. He shook his head and smiled, "I'm fine. It's just that I've exhausted too much of my lifespan."As he spoke, Zhuowen turned his head to look at Elder Gu and said, "Elder, the body has been completely condensed. Shouldn't you save my wife now?"Elder Gu looked at Zhuowen with a complicated gaze. He didn't think that this young man would be willing to sacrifice a large portion of his lifespan just to condense a body that was extremely compatible with his wife's soul.Elder Gu nodded and came to Zhuowen's side. He then took out an elixir from his Spirit Ring and handed it to Zhuowen, "This is the Vitality Elixir. It can replenish a portion of your lifespan. Take it first."Zhuowen clasped his hands together and unceremoniously consumed the Vitality Elixir. Soon after, he felt his entire body become warm. His originally shriveled skin began to become round again, and the bark-like wrinkles gradually disappeared.In a short while, Zhuowen returned to his youthful appearance from an old man in his seventies or eighties. However, Zhuowen knew that this was only his outer appearance. He hadn't recovered much of his lifespan."Your lifespan has been depleted too much. If you want to completely recover, you can only rely on yourself in the future. Or rather, you can make another breakthrough and use the powerful energy you obtain to forcefully recover your lifespan," Elder Gu said with a complicated gaze.Zhuowen casually nodded and said in a deep voice, "Elder, please save my wife first."Elder Gu nodded. Soon after, he waved his sleeve and swept up the body that was floating on the altar before him. After a brief examination, a satisfied expression appeared in his eyes."Open the coffin lid. Next, I need to completely merge your wife's soul with this body. Once it's merged with the body, the rest will be easy," Elder Gu said nonchalantly.Zhuowen did not hesitate. He clapped his right hand and immediately opened the coffin lid. Soon after, the woman in the crystal coffin trembled. It was as if she would be blown away by a gust of wind.Elder Gu's expression turned grave. Soon after, he took out a black hexahedral crystal from his Spirit Ring. He formed a seal with his right hand and immediately, Mu Chenxue's soul was absorbed by the black crystal.As the soul entered the black crystal, Zhuowen strangely discovered that the black crystal actually emitted a faint black light.However, the moment the black light lit up, a bone-chilling coldness spread out from the black light and spread throughout the hall. Zhuowen could not help but shiver.Elder Gu's expression changed slightly. His gaze became extremely grave and solemn. He stared at Zhuowen and said, "Before this woman was sealed in the crystal coffin, did you use the Mysterious Crystal Ice Soul to freeze her soul?"

When Shi Ji brought Zhuowen back to the Primal Chaos Divine Temple, the Divine Master Dou Hua personally welcomed them. After knowing that the Master of the Divine Tomb had agreed to open up the Primal Battlefield, the smile on Dou Hua's face became even wider and he became even more enthusiastic towards Shi Ji.

In the dark hall, there was a rather large altar. In front of the altar, Old Man Gu stood quietly with his hands behind his back. The blue flames kept floating in the altar, illuminating Old Man Gu's face. It looked extremely strange.

Beside Zhuowen, there was a crystal coffin floating quietly. In the crystal coffin, a beautiful face lay peacefully, as if she had fallen into a deep sleep.

The hall was silent. The three of them looked at Old Man Gu.

"Little friend, give me the Nine Soul Lotus Root. I need to refine the Nine Soul Lotus Root with the fire in my Sea of Consciousness. After that, I will reconstruct a physical body for your wife that is compatible with her soul," Old Man Gu suddenly said.

Zhuowen nodded and handed the Nine Soul Lotus Root to Old Man Gu without hesitation.

Old Man Gu looked at the Nine Soul Lotus Root with admiration in his eyes. After that, he directly threw the Nine Soul Lotus Root into the blue flames on the altar.

Old Man Gu refined the Nine Soul Lotus Root for a total of nine days. After that, Zhuowen realized that the Nine Soul Lotus Root had the shape of a human skeleton after being refined.

Obviously, Old Man Gu was preparing to refine the Nine Soul Lotus Root into a human skeleton.

When the skeleton was completely refined, Old Man Gu flicked his finger and took out various precious materials from his Spirit Ring.
