171: Regularization! Can stabbing someone with this knife restore blood?
Yuan Ye!
“What is this?!”
Seeing the lines of text appear before him, Li Yan realized he had definitely stumbled upon a treasure!
“Yuan Ye: An extremely rare Material, only found within the Four Fiends Yuan Ye.”
“Introduction: Yuan Ye, like the Ancient Dragon Ao Jiao, will cruelly swallow its enemies whole, sending them into its stomach to be refined.
This item, named Yuan Ye, is a rare metal accumulated in Yuan Ye’s stomach from years of continuous swallowing.
This item may contain the concentrated essence of Immortal bone powder, extraterrestrial meteorites, and many other Heaven And Earth Treasures.
(Note: Yuan Ye dwells in the deep, dark sea, consuming only Dragon crystals, Phoenix marrow, or Heaven And Earth Treasures. The substances refined within its belly over countless years are incomparable to mere worldly stones).”
Li Yan understood; it was just a gallstone!
For example, the ‘pig treasures’ and ‘ox treasures’ often spoken of by the older generation are actually gallstones found within livestock.
However, Yuan Ye eats much better, and a large amount of metal has accumulated in its stomach. After tens or even hundreds of thousands of years of accumulation, this treasure was formed.
This means that throughout the entire Immortal Cultivation World, you wouldn't find a second piece of this Yuan Ye!
Li Yan excitedly rubbed his claws, checking its side effects.
“Side Effect: Can refine Yuan Ye into a Sharp Weapon. Being cut by this item will cause unstoppable bleeding, continuous wound festering, and extreme difficulty in healing!”
“The side effect is making wounds bleed non-stop?”
“Then if the side effect turns positive, wouldn't it be?!”
At that moment, Li Yan had a bold idea.
Looking at the heavily wounded Ao Jiao outside, she still needed to sleep for a long time to heal her internal injuries.
What if!
What if he forged this Yuan Ye into a Magical Artifact, and after the side effect turned positive, it became a Divine Artifact for saving lives and healing injuries?
Someone gravely injured and collapsed? Just give them a stab! The needle cures the illness, transforming him into a Divine Doctor of this era!
Li Yan was a man of action; he would do it now.
Perfect! He could use the magma in Yuan Ye's stomach to refine this Yuan Ye.
“Twenty-Four Mountain Yin Fire, rise!”
Immediately, black Yin Fire rose within Yuan Ye’s stomach.
The entire stomach transformed into a giant Artifact Refining furnace, beginning to burn this Yuan Ye.
No matter how the black Yin Fire burned, it could only slowly turn this black metal Material red.
“Hmm… this yuan ye iron seems to have high resistance to Yin Fire.”
“Then, let’s try Six Ding Divine Fire!”
Li Yan returned to his human form, forming hand seals, and began to refine this entire massive piece of yuan ye iron inside Yuan Ye’s belly.
Although Li Yan only mastered Entry-Level Six Ding Divine Fire, when this Six Ding Divine Fire was unleashed, the yuan ye iron immediately reacted!
“Oh? It’s starting to soften, enough to be shaped!”
“Ordinary Magical Artifacts require countless hours of forging, striking tens of thousands of times to remove the Impurities within.”
“But this yuan ye iron, having been soaked in this gastric fluid for years, its Impurities were long ago melted by the high temperature.”
“It only needs simple shaping, and once cooled, it can become a tool!”
Li Yan thought for a moment and forged this yuan ye iron into a Willow-Leaf Saber, controlling it with his mind, slowly shaping this entire massive piece of yuan ye iron.
Looking at the scene before him, Li Yan felt satisfied.
Yuan Ye, one of the Four Fiends, had become Li Yan’s Immortal Manor, possessing both a turtle shell and a place for Alchemy and Artifact Refining within.
Previously, without a dedicated place for Artifact Refining, Li Yan had never tried refining artifacts himself.
Now, with such a mobile Immortal Manor, how wonderful and joyful!
“Done!”
Exhaling a long breath of turbid Qi, Li Yan contentedly looked at the nine-zhang-nine-foot giant Willow-Leaf Saber before him.
This was truly a saber over thirty meters long, yet in front of the colossal creature, it appeared so miniature.
“Using this Yuan Ye Willow-Leaf Saber to stab Ao Jiao should accelerate her healing.”
Li Yan really wanted to try how this extremely poisonous yuan ye knife, which was venomous when stabbed into a person, would turn out after its side effect was reversed.
Thinking of this, Li Yan impatiently transformed into his Dragon Soul Golden Body again, gripped the nine-zhang-nine-foot yuan ye knife with his claw, and flew outside the turtle shell.
Ao Jiao, who was resting and healing her wounds, had her silvery-white Dragon scales in stark contrast with her crimson wounds.
Sensing Li Yan approaching, she slowly opened her eyes.
“What’s wrong?”
“Could it be that the Four Fiends have sensed the changes here and are blocking us outside the cave entrance?”
Li Yan shook his head repeatedly: “No.”
“I came here to ask you something.”
Ao Jiao proudly raised her head: “What is it! As long as it’s something this elder sister can do, I will help you.”
“Ao Jiao, can you let me stab you?”
When Li Yan said these words, the great female Dragon’s Dragon body trembled, an expression of disbelief appeared in her eyes, accompanied by her swallowing a large gulp of saliva.
“You… what did you say?”
Li Yan, in his Dragon Soul Golden Body, raised an eyebrow: “Will you let me stab you, alright?”
Ao Jiao’s voice began to tremble. Could it be… could it be that Little Bean Sprout had come to his senses?
No, how could he, a young Dragon, make such a shameless request?
Ancient Dragon Ao Jiao was silent for a moment, and she envisioned the scene.
Her enormous Dragon body stretched for a thousand li, and Little Bean Sprout was so small.
Could this really be possible?
Just as this great female Dragon was lost in wild thoughts, Li Yan revealed the yuan ye knife in his hand.
“Just this, let me stab you with a knife to try, okay?”
Ah!?
Ah!!!
Ao Jiao went from shock to shock, her thoughts leaping from one level to another.
So, the “stab” Li Yan spoke of was stabbing her with a knife?
Ancient Dragon Ao Jiao restlessly swayed her tail, utterly disappointed.
“No, the point isn’t disappointment, it’s why do you want to stab me with a knife?”
“Did I, Ao Jiao, wrong you?”
“I fought for you with my life, yet you want to take advantage of my weakness and stab me with a knife?”
Seeing this Ancient Dragon appear very angry, Li Yan once again used his gentle tone to comfort her.
“This item is extraordinary; it’s a Magic Treasure I discovered within Yuan Ye.”
“Enemies cut by this knife will bleed non-stop.”
“But if an ally is cut, they will recover faster.”
Hearing Li Yan’s explanation, Ao Jiao was half-skeptical.
“Really? You can cure my injuries by stabbing me with this small knife?”
Anyone who heard it would find it too fake!
How could someone use a knife to cut a person and save lives?
Hmm, there really was! Li Yan came from modern times, and modern Willow-Leaf Sabers really could save lives.
This Willow-Leaf Saber could both save and harm people, depending on whose hands it was in.
If it were anyone else, they certainly wouldn't agree.
After all, she was severely injured right now, and Li Yan still wanted to stab her; no normal person would agree.
But Ao Jiao was not human; she was an Ancient Dragon.
Looking at Li Yan’s ‘sincere’ eyes, she was silent for a moment.
“Come on, stab me and try.”
“I believe you.”
She was extremely weak now; if Li Yan harbored malicious intentions and wanted to kill her, he might actually succeed.
She watched as Li Yan held the yuan ye knife with his Dragon claw and slowly inserted it into Ao Jiao’s wound.
The next moment, Ao Jiao’s massive body suddenly began to convulse, letting out a mournful cry and spitting out a large mouthful of blood, as if suffering immense pain.
Seeing Ao Jiao spit blood, Li Yan was visibly flustered.
“Ao Jiao!”
