Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2894

Chapter 1407 Resurrection

Zu An’s heart skipped a beat: “Has Your Majesty realized something?”

Although the woman before him was likely Yu Yanluo’s past life, they were not the same person, so his address was naturally respectful.

Houtu replied, “Over the years, I have indeed vaguely sensed that something is amiss in this world, but every time I try to think about it, I get distracted by inexplicable events. If you hadn’t brought it up this time, I probably wouldn’t have remembered these things.”

“Are you saying that someone is secretly manipulating everything?” Zu An’s heart tightened. He knew that Houtu’s strength was almost at the pinnacle of this world; what kind of being could manipulate everything without him knowing?

“I’m not sure.” Houtu lowered her head, seemingly deep in thought.

“Has Your Majesty ever heard of the Gate of the World?” Zu An asked.

“The Gate of the World? Where did you hear about that?” Houtu’s eyes showed some surprise.

Zu An briefly recounted how Di Jun went to the Gate of the World and then disappeared. The other party was Yu Yanluo’s past life, and given her self-sacrifice and great merit, she was naturally trustworthy.

Houtu’s eyes gleamed with wonder: “So that’s how it is, so that’s how it is.”

Zu’an quietly watched her, waiting for her answer.

Houtu then continued, “I don’t know where the Gate of the World is yet, but I have several guesses, which I need to think about and verify carefully. By the way, tell me the specific characteristics of the friend you came to Youdu to find.”

Zu’an was overjoyed, and with a wave of his hand, Yao Ji’s image appeared in the sky, and he described some of her characteristics.

Houtu hummed in agreement, closed her eyes, and seemed to be sensing something.

The next second, a point of light appeared in this space, and then the point of light expanded, turning into a transparent bubble, inside which curled a beautiful girl—none other than Yao Ji!

However, Yao Ji at this moment was even more immature and delicate than he remembered, her entire body somewhat transparent, as if she might dissipate at any moment.

Houtu pointed her finger, and a point of light floated into the bubble.

The girl’s figure inside also became much more solid.

Then she said, “She was too young, dying young, her soul was already weak. If she weren’t the daughter of Emperor Yan, she would probably have been completely destroyed long ago. However, in a place like Youdu, she also suffered considerable losses. If you had come a few days later, she would probably have completely vanished.”

“Thank you for your help, Your Majesty,” Zu An

said gratefully. Hou Tu continued, “It’s clear she was born with a deficiency. Even if you had the elixir of immortality to save her, she would still be weak and sickly, and it doesn’t match what you told me about her appearance in the afterlife.”

After thinking for a moment, she pointed her finger, and a piece of soil radiating divine light appeared in Zu An’s hand.

“After you put her soul back into her body, you can nurture it in this divine soil. In time, it will be able to fully recover, and it can also cure her congenital deficiencies.”

Zu An felt the endless life force contained in the divine soil in his hand and carefully put it away: “I thank Your Majesty on behalf of Yao Ji!”

“You should save her first. I also need some peace and quiet to think about what you just said.” Hou Tu flicked her sleeve, and the two of them had already left the special space.

Qiu Honglei and Xihe rushed over nervously, relieved to see he was alright.

“I’ll see you off.” Houtu’s words had barely faded when the three were transported out of Youdu by a gentle divine light.

Zu’an, having transformed into Dijun in time, managed to emerge from the Ghost Gate without arousing suspicion from Shentu and Yulei.

“Respectfully seeing off the Heavenly Emperor!” Shentu and Yulei, watching the three depart intimately, couldn’t resist gossiping.

Zu’an, along with Qiu Honglei and Xihe, transformed into a rainbow and quickly returned to the outside of Huoyun Cave.

Shennong, who had been guarding his daughter’s side, was excited to see the addition of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden: “Have you found the elixir of immortality?”

Having been to Kunlun Mountain, he knew the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden was under the command of the Queen Mother of the West.

Zu’an nodded, carefully opening his palm and drawing Yaoji’s soul into her body.

This would have been difficult for anyone else, but he already held the power of death, and now, as the Heavenly Emperor, it wasn’t difficult for him.

After the fragile soul entered that delicate body, a slight blush returned to her pale cheeks.

Shennong was immediately excited: “Yaoji is alive!”

Xihe coldly replied, “It’s not that simple.”

Sure enough, Yaoji’s soul soon tried to leave her body again. If Zu’an hadn’t temporarily sealed it within her body with his divine power, it would probably have already left her body. Given the fragility of her soul, it probably wouldn’t have even reached Youdu before completely dissipating into the world.

Qiu Honglei hurriedly took out the peach: “Quickly use the elixir of immortality to revive her!”

Only by taking the elixir of immortality could Yaoji be brought back to life.

However, Yaoji was now dead, and even if the elixir of immortality was placed before her, she couldn’t possibly swallow it.

Zu’an didn’t hesitate at all. He grabbed the peach, took a bite, and used his divine power to envelop all its spiritual energy. Then he kissed Yaoji’s lips, feeding her bite by bite.

Seeing this, Shennong’s eyebrows furrowed, but he understood that the other party was trying to save her, so he ultimately didn’t react.

As the entire peach transformed into pure life force and entered Yao Ji’s body, her soul, which had been trying to fly away, finally merged completely with her body.

Her originally pale complexion gradually turned rosy, and her once flat chest began to rise and fall almost imperceptibly.

“She’s breathing again!” Qiu Honglei exclaimed, both surprised and delighted.

Shennong, tears streaming down his face, said, “Thank you so much for saving my daughter’s life!”

He knew all too well how difficult it had been to find the elixir of immortality and retrieve his daughter’s soul, and for a moment, he didn’t know how to express his gratitude.

Zu An’s expression remained solemn: “As the Goddess Houtu said, Yao Ji was born with a deficiency, and even if she were saved, her body wouldn’t be in good health. So, I borrowed my divine soil to completely solve this problem.” As

he spoke, he took out the divine soil and gently sprinkled it around her.

Although it was only a small amount of soil, it began to grow naturally, eventually transforming into a small boat that contained Yao Ji.

“The Goddess Houtu’s five-colored divine soil!” Shennong, of course, recognized its value, and immediately took out a crimson whip, gently tapping it on Yao Ji’s body.

Soon, her body began to transform, eventually turning into a crystal-clear blade of grass.

Seeing this, Zu’an was astonished: “What did you do?”

Shennong explained, “This is the best way to completely restore Yao Ji’s innate deficiencies. By nurturing her with five-colored divine soil, and by imbuing her with the essence of wood using the ochre divine whip, I allowed her to reshape her life in the form of a Yao grass. Once the Yao grass grows, she will be completely reborn, not only restoring her innate deficiencies but also gaining many wondrous properties.”

“The only problem now is that the Fire Cloud Cave is too scorching, unsuitable for the growth of the Yao grass. We need to find a place with abundant moisture and vital energy to nurture her…”

Zuan’s heart skipped a beat: “I know a suitable place, Goddess Peak of Wushan!”
