Aiding My Queen With My System - Chapter 8
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Chu Feng heard the familiar system voice and was overjoyed.
“Hurry up and check in!”
The system chimed again.
“Congratulations to the host! For checking in today, you have been rewarded with the Ancient Wonder Elixir.
“What’s the Ancient Wonder Elixir?”
“Why haven’t I heard of it before.”
Chu Feng rubbed his head and said suspiciously. At the same time, a red dot suddenly appeared in the middle of the system’s backpack.
Due to his severe OCD, Chu Feng finally could not help but click on the red dot.
In an instant, it was as if he had opened an SSR treasure chest. The shine from the golden light instantly made his eyes hurt and Chu Feng had to block it with his hand before finally seeing that in his backpack, there was now an additional elixir that gave off an auspicious aura.
“The divine-level system’s explanation of the Ancient Wonder Elixir is that it is condensed from the essence of the sun and moon. Among other things, it contains the spiritual body of the last young dragon in the world and it has the miraculous effect of helping warriors to break through bottlenecks.”
Chu Feng took a closer look and there really seemed to be a small golden dragon swimming inside. This pill was gold on one side and silver on the other, like an independently existing world in a mustard seed.
Breaking through a bottleneck?
The first thing that came to Chu Feng’s mind was Ji Rui. Wasn’t she at the ninth-stage Martial Sage realm level? If she ate this pill, would she be able to advance further?
No!
He suddenly turned his gaze to Ji Zheng in the distance and his eyes lit up.
“I’ve thought of something!”
Even if he really gave the pill to Ji Rui to break through the ninth-stage Martial Sage realm, she would not be able to face four opponents alone, particularly given that among them was Ling Taihe, who was already halfway to being a Martial Emperor.
However, if Ji Zheng, being a first-stage Martial Sage, could achieve a breakthrough at this moment, would it not break their trap?
After all, these four people had put in so much effort just to kill Ji Zheng. They seemed to be afraid of something that was on Ji Zheng… Anyway, Ji Zheng could not die.
There was no one except Ji Zheng who could save the Dual Polarity Sect. However, it was definitely not an easy task to advance to the Martial Emperor realm first. Otherwise, his father-in-law would not have been injured trying to break through the bottleneck.
He had to help Ji Zheng transcend another tribulation!
Chu Feng squeezed the elixir in his hand, feeling a little uneasy.
He was not sure at all if this mysterious elixir given by the system was useful or not…
Desperate times called for desperate measures so with a heart filled with hope, Chu Feng said, “Ahem, my wife, three days before I married into our Dual Polarity Sect, I had a dream. An old immortal said that I would face a bloody calamity after three days, so he specially left me an elixir for use in urgent situations.”
“This elixir has the miraculous effect of helping people with breakthroughs. I didn’t believe it at first, but who would have thought that what he said came true! The old immortal even specially instructed me not to open this brocade pouch until three days later…”
Ji Rui thought that Chu Feng was joking and she did not expect to see a wonder elixir in Chu Feng’s hand when she turned around!
One side was a brilliant gold, but the color of the other side looked as gentle as the moonlight. A young dragon swam slowly in the wonder elixir.
She could sense the spiritual power of the young dragon and marveled at it.
“Is it actually a real dragon?”
Even a small dragon was enough to make anyone here tremble in fear. It must be known that since a long time ago, mythical creatures like dragons had never appeared again.
Ji Rui had astonishment and doubt in her eyes.
Even though as the sect master of the Dual Polarity Sect, she had seen countless treasures since she was young, she had never thought that someone could actually refine a young dragon into an elixir!
Especially since even now the dragon was still alive.
“What kind of elixir is this…”
Chu Feng carefully observed Ji Rui’s expression. From young, he had felt that being a warrior was too tiring so his perception of spiritual energy was almost nonexistent and he could not sense the strength of this elixir at all.
Hearing his wife’s question, Chu Feng immediately explained, “This pill is called the Ancient Wonder Elixir and I dedicate it to Father-in-law to tide through this crisis. If anything happens to Father-in-law, I’m afraid I won’t be able to live either. So, my wife, you don’t have to worry about me harming your family.”
Chu Feng was still worried that Ji Rui would suspect him, so he hurriedly swore an oath to prove that he was not lying.
He felt fine for himself given he had originally transmigrated from another world and so was not too afraid of death. However, Ji Rui was so beautiful and also a newlywed, thus he definitely could not bear for her to die.
It was hard to say but perhaps what this stupid system had given them was something useful that could help them get through this crisis.
‘You don’t have to take such a solemn oath. I believe you.’
Ji Rui took the Ancient Wonder Elixir from him and spoke with a lot of sincerity in her voice.
Initially, she did not believe Chu Feng’s words, but the elixir in front of her was clearly not something ordinary. Moreover… at this moment, she had no other choice but to believe Chu Feng.
Ji Rui flew up to the battlefield.
Seeing that she was getting closer and closer to her father, hope reignited in Ji Rui’s heart.
“The young sect master of the Dual Polarity Sect actually dares to look down on us.”
Miao Yuan and the others appeared out of nowhere and surrounded Ji Rui.
She gritted her teeth and forced herself to calm down. At the same time, she suddenly took action, not to launch a sneak attack on them, but to throw the elixir she was holding in her hand towards Ji Zheng!
“Father, catch it quick——”
The four men immediately became vigilant while Ji Rui activated her cultivation as if she was self-destructing. Her spiritual power instantly swelled out in her body, making her blood vessels look like they were about to come out of her almost transparent skin.
Ling Taihe and the others stared at Ji Rui’s every move. At the same time, they took a few steps back, worried that she would choose to die together with them at this moment.
They naturally also saw what Ji Rui had thrown over.
It was just an elixir.
The current Ji Zheng was just hanging on by a thread. Even if they did not make any more moves, he would not be able to live beyond half a year. There was no miracle elixir in this world that could revive him. At most, he would just linger on in a steadily worsening condition.
However, as long as Ji Zheng was not dead, they could not act rashly.
After all, they were now only one step away from success. No one wanted to anger a dying person at this juncture and be brought along to the nether world.
“This elixir?”
As soon as Ji Zheng caught the elixir, he felt an extremely pure spiritual power surge out of his palm…
Being a first-stage Martial Sage, how could he not realize how powerful this elixir was?
Moreover, this elixir seemed to be fatally attracted to him. When he held it in his hand, wisps of spiritual energy gathered in his meridians and repaired the meridians he had damaged during the battle.
Ji Zheng realized that his realm had actually leveled up!
Even a slight improvement was enough to shock him.
Ever since he advanced to the first-stage Martial Sage realm, he had been trapped in this realm for more than a thousand years. Even though his strength was merely one step away from becoming a Martial Emperor, Ji Zheng had never been able to find a way to do it.
