Chapter 1456 Finally Retaining Vitality

Mengyu and Gu Dongxing have a life-and-death contract, such that if Gu Dongxing dies, she cannot survive either.

Suddenly, Mengyu felt dizzy again, and then she sensed that the contract was extracting her life energy at an accelerated pace. At this rate, she feared she would be drained of life energy and die within an hour.

However, since the contract was still extracting her life energy, it indicated that Gu Dongxing was not dead yet!

But even if he’s still alive, he’s not far from death. There was a large hole in his abdomen, and the vitality in his body was gradually draining away.

A woman was lying on him, crying loudly. Nearby, a dozen men stood there, trying to persuade the woman to get up.

It was clear that those people already considered Gu Dongxing dead. They were urging the woman to give up on Gu Dongxing, but she refused to let go, even cursing at the group harshly.

A little further away, a rhino lay dead on the ground beside them.

This was the scene she saw through their contract. She could only see the images but couldn’t hear their voices.

Clearly, Gu Dongxing was most likely injured by that rhino.

However, Mengyu couldn’t believe that a Golden Core cultivator like him would be injured by a rhino. There must have been other reasons involved. She vowed that if she found out who caused Gu Dongxing’s harm, she’d make them understand the true meaning of vengeance.

Mengyu continuously consumed pills that could increase vitality. The Revitalizing Pill was a sacred remedy for healing, able to quickly heal a person’s injuries and contained some vitality.

But that was only effective for ordinary people. For cultivators like Gu Dongxing, the Revitalizing Pill didn’t have such a good effect.

Mengyu used up the remaining dozen Revitalizing Pills, yet Gu Dongxing still couldn’t stand up. Having exhausted the Revitalizing Pills, she turned to the Rejuvenation Pills. She didn’t take them one by one, but consumed the entire bottle at once.

A constant stream of life energy was transmitted to Gu Dongxing through their contract. The loss of vitality from Gu Dongxing’s body wasn’t happening as quickly. With a continuous supply of life energy from Mengyu, the death-like aura around Gu Dongxing slowly dissipated. But since vitality was still leaking, the extracted and lost life energy only matched each other, preventing further deterioration.

If Mengyu didn’t have a large amount of pills to consume to increase her vitality, neither Gu Dongxing nor Mengyu could have escaped death this time!

Mengyu dared not enter the space, fearing that entering it would place them in separate spaces, making it impossible for Gu Dongxing to extract her life energy. With Divine Sense, she called Xiao Tao.

"Quick, exchange for the Great Recovery Pill."

"Master, what’s going on? Why do you need the Great Recovery Pill?"

"Gu Dongxing is injured. His injuries are severe, affecting the Dantian, and possibly the Golden Core."

"How many should I exchange?"

"A hundred!"

A Great Recovery Pill worth ten Merit Points each required a life to exchange for. One hundred pills equaled one thousand Merit Points—how long would it take to earn that many.

Xiao Tao was very distressed.

But Mengyu swallowed them down without hesitation, one after another.

These pills weren’t for increasing power, but for increasing life energy.

Mengyu consumed a large number of vitality elixirs, yet her life energy was continuously drawn away by the contract and transferred to Gu Dongxing, and kept leaking from him.

After she consumed eighty Great Recovery Pills and feared it wasn’t enough, she had Xiao Tao exchange another hundred. It wasn’t until she had consumed over a hundred Great Recovery Pills that the vitality in Gu Dongxing’s body started to thicken perceptibly—clearly, the extracted vitality surpassed the lost vitality, allowing some life energy to remain in his body and begin the healing process.

First, his heart began to beat weakly.

Mengyu finally let out a small breath: Gu Dongxing, finally, was alive again.
