A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm

Chapter 1008: Mother-and-Daughter Bond

"While it's a good idea to recruit more allies to strengthen our tribe, your safety is a higher priority, Susu. Our Azure Fox Tribe currently rests on your shoulders. I'm already like this, so you must remain safe," the azure-robed woman sighed.

"What are you saying, Mother? You're definitely going to recover!" Ye Susu protested in a vehement manner.

"Yes, yes, I'll be sure to get better," the azure-robed woman hurriedly agreed, but the look in her eyes betrayed the pessimism deep in her heart.

Ye Susu lowered her head, and a decisive look flashed through her eyes as she suddenly reached out with a finger like lightning.

Bright, white light was glowing on her fingertip as he tapped it against the azure-robed woman's forehead, and the latter's eyes widened in shock, following which she quickly fell unconscious.

"What are you doing, Young Mistress!" Elder Qiu exclaimed.

Ye Susu offered no response as she pulled out a crimson rune pen, then began inscribing array patterns onto the ground around the jade bed while pulling out various array tools.

Elder Qiu wanted to raise further questions, but she refrained from doing so at the sight of Ye Susu's focused expression.

Half a day passed by in the blink of an eye, and as the sun was beginning to rise outside, Ye Susu finally stopped what she was doing, having created a complex crimson array around the jade bed.

"What's this, Young Mistress?" Elder Qiu asked.

"It's the Bloodform Origin Restoration Array," Ye Susu replied.

"What?! Isn't that the array that strips one of their bloodline power before injecting it into someone else's body? Do you intend to inject your own Azure Fox bloodline power into your mother's body to help her ward off the glacial qi? I can't allow you to do that!

“The Bloodform Origin Restoration Array is far too harmful to the user, and once your bloodline power is stripped away, it'll be impossible to recover it! Your cultivation foundation will be destroyed, and you could even revert back into a fox with no intelligence!" Elder Qiu exclaimed in an alarmed voice.

"As long as I can save my mother, none of that matters," Ye Susu replied with a placid expression, and there was a peaceful smile on her face.

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly upon seeing this, clearly touched by Ye Susu's moving display.

"In that case, allow me to take your place. My cultivation base is superior to yours, so there will be a higher chance of success for me," Elder Qiu said.

"No. Your cultivation base may be superior to mine, but I have the purer Azure Fox bloodline. On top of that, when using the Bloodform Origin Restoration Array to combine bloodlines, the more closely related the two subjects are, the higher the chance of success," Ye Susu said in a determined manner.

Elder Qiu had no response for this.

"The frost poison that my mother has been afflicted by is extremely formidable, so even with this array, there's only roughly a 50% chance that Mother will be saved. If things go wrong, then both of us could die in the array. If that happens, you'll be the only Golden Immortal left in our Azure Fox Tribe, so your safety is actually more important than mine.

“Even if Mother and I perish here, there will still be hope for our Azure Fox Tribe's future, but if something happens to you, then our Azure Fox Tribe will truly be doomed," Ye Susu continued.

Elder Qiu remained silent, and it was unclear what she was thinking.

"Leave everything here to me, Elder Qiu. If my mother and I don't make it, then the Azure Fox Tribe will have to fall upon your shoulders," Ye Susu said in a serious manner, following which she prepared to step into the array, only for Elder Qiu to suddenly catch her by her wrist.

"Young Mistress, you just said that as leaders of our Azure Fox Tribe, we should set aside our own personal emotions and think for the greater good. You possess excellent aptitude, and your Azure Fox bloodline is even purer than mine and your mother's, so your potential is limitless. Given Chief's current condition, even the Bloodform Origin Restoration Array may not be enough to save us.

“This may be a little cruel for me to say, but for the sake of our Azure Fox Tribe, I think it's best not to take the risk, and I think Chief would agree with me," Elder Qiu said with a torn expression.

"No, I'm not doing this for myself. I may possess some aptitude, but right now, I'm only at the mid-Golden Immortal Stage, and no one knows if I'll be able to become a Golden Immortal in the future. Objectively speaking, sacrificing a True Immortal for a 50% chance to save a Golden Immortal is a very good deal," Ye Susu said as she gently pulled her own wrist out of Elder Qiu's grasp.

An urgent look appeared on Elder Qiu's face upon hearing this, but she couldn't think of a good counterargument to this.

"My mother was wounded by those scoundrels from the Heavenly Water Sect in order to save me, and you almost met your demise in the process as well. If I don't do this for her, I'm going to carry guilt for the rest of my life. With this flaw in my mental state, even a breakthrough to the late-True Immortal Stage would be a distant pipe dream, let alone becoming a Golden Immortal," Ye Susu said in a decisive manner.

Elder Qiu knew that there was no dissuading her, so she could only heave a forlorn sigh before stepping away.

"Our Azure Fox Tribe will be counting on you, Elder Qiu," Ye Susu said with a faint smile, then stepped into the array before sitting down with her legs crossed at the head of the bed.

She then made a strange hand seal while chanting a mysterious incantation, and the crimson array on the ground instantly began to glow brightly, releasing radiant crimson light that swirled around rapidly within the array.

Formidable energy fluctuations erupted out of the array before sweeping through the air in all directions, and Elder Qiu hurriedly cast a few incantation seals into the walls of the stone chamber upon seeing this.

The restrictions on the walls instantly brightened, releasing dazzling starlight to contain the energy fluctuations, but they were too violent to be fully contained, and some of the energy fluctuations were still able to escape.

Elder Qiu paid no heed to this as she stared intently at the two people in the array, and right at this moment, countless strands of crimson light rose up from all over the array before entering Ye Susu's body.

A hint of surprise appeared on Han Li's face as he observed from the shadows.

A pained look appeared on Ye Susu's face, but she immediately suppressed it as she continued chanting her incantation.

More and more strands of crimson light surged out of the surrounding array before vanishing into her body, and a series of azure patterns began to appear over her skin, giving off radiant azure light and a formidable bloodline aura.

At the same time, an azure fox projection appeared behind her. The projection had a very regal and majestic appearance, but it only had two tails.

Right at this moment, Ye Susu reached out with one hand before pressing it down onto her mother's glabella.

Countless strands of crimson light shot out of the palm of her hand before surging into her mother's glabella, and faint, azure patterns could be seen entering her body along with the strands of crimson light.

A series of glowing azure patterns appeared over the woman's skin as well, but they were a little dimmer than the azure patterns on Ye Susu's body.

However, as more and more strands of crimson light surged into her glabella, the azure patterns on her body gradually grew brighter, while the azure patterns on Ye Susu's body slowly dimmed over time.

At the same time, her complexion had turned very pale, and the azure fox projection behind her was also displaying signs of fading.

However, there was an elated look in her eyes as she pointed a finger forward, and a beam of azure light shot out of her fingertip before vanishing into her mother's dantian.

The woman's body instantly began to glow like a radiant azure sun, following which all of the azure light condensed to form a layer of azure flames that spread toward the blue ice that her lower body was sealed in. freewēbnoveℓ.com

As soon as the two came into contact with each other, the blue ice immediately began to slowly melt, and a hopeful look appeared in Elder Qiu's eyes upon seeing this.

However, Han Li was shaking his head as he peered deep into the blue ice with his Infernal Devilish Eyes.

Before long, the blue ice had melted from the woman's waist down to her calves, but at this point, the rate at which the ice was melting slowed drastically, and it began to resist the advancement of the azure flames.

At this point, the azure patterns on Ye Susu's body had already dimmed significantly, and the azure fox projection behind her was also barely visible.

Her eyes narrowed slightly as she cast her gaze toward the remaining chunk of blue ice, and she let loose a low roar, upon which the crimson array beneath her lit up even further, sending countless strands of crimson light surging into her body.

The remaining azure bloodline in her body instantly completely faded away, forming a ball of azure light that made its way into the woman's body.

The azure flames were fueled by this ball of azure light, forcing back the blue ice a little further, but ultimately, it was unable to completely eradicate the ice.

Not only that, but a burst of blue light suddenly appeared on the azure-robed woman's calf, and it began to retaliate against the azure flames, forcing them back with ease.

An extremely formidable glacial aura erupted forth, and the blue ice quickly began to spread over the azure-robed woman's lower body again.

At the same time, the layers of frost in the stone chamber rapidly thickened, and even the crimson array on the ground was completely encased in blue ice.

At this moment, Ye Susu was completely spent, and she could barely even remain conscious as she looked around with a fearful expression.

Elder Qiu's expression changed drastically upon seeing this, and she reflexively took a step forward, only for Ye Susu to turn to her with a shake of her head.

Elder Qiu gritted her teeth with a torn expression as she stopped in her tracks.

All of a sudden, the azure-robed woman shuddered as he snapped wide awake, and upon taking a brief glance at her surroundings, she immediately figured out what had happened.

She let loose a low roar, and the azure flames on her body swelled slightly to temporarily keep the expanding blue ice at bay as she hurriedly yelled, "Elder Qiu, take Susu and leave..."

Before she had a chance to finish her sentence, a burst of blue flames erupted forth, easily overwhelming the azure flames, and the blue ice continued to spread rapidly, reaching all the way up to the woman's chest in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, Ye Susu's body was also rapidly becoming encased in ice.

A conflicted look appeared on Elder Qiu's face upon seeing this, and she was just about to throw caution to the wind and rush into the array when a black figure abruptly appeared in front of her.

It was none other than Han Li.
