273: Chapter 273 The Opportunity Within the Nine Spirits Desolate Sacred Tower, Zhou Zhile and Zhou Zhili's Determination!

Vast and magnificent, ancient and primitive, the majestic nine spirits desolate saint pagoda seemed like an immortal god inviting Lin Ran inside for a conversation the moment its gates slowly opened.

What a breathtaking scene it was; Zhou Zhile and Zhou Zhili were dumbfounded, not even daring to breathe!

Lin Ran slowly stood up, and with a flash of his figure, he entered the nine spirits desolate saint pagoda.

Just as he entered the nine spirits desolate saint pagoda, the pagoda gates slowly closed behind him.

Inside the nine spirits desolate saint pagoda.

Lin Ran slowly opened his eyes and looked at the scene before him.

Ahead, high up in the vast Void Realm, countless chains filled with Dao power shot out from the void, intertwining and trapping a black-and-white orb of light.

This orb of light, suspended high in the sky, truly looked like an eternal, indestructible sun!

Lin Ran was shocked to the core, standing there speechless and dumbfounded.

Right now, he had absolutely no idea what that thing was.

But he knew very well that he was currently far from qualified to touch such a thing.

He wasn't even qualified to undo the chains binding it.

Lin Ran didn't dare look at the light orb any longer; its piercing, dazzling radiance was more than he could bear to gaze upon for even a moment.

"The nine spirits desolate saint pagoda has nine floors. Could it be that each floor contains one of these light orbs?"

"Nine Spirits... does it correspond to the Immortal Nine Paths? What is the connection between this thing and the Immortal Nine Paths?"

Lin Ran pondered continuously in his heart.

But soon, he stopped thinking about it.

Since he couldn't reach these things yet, overthinking would only add to his troubles.

He hadn't opened the nine spirits desolate saint pagoda to pry into its mysteries, but to pave the way for seizing that heaven and earth miracle medicine.

Lin Ran exited the nine spirits desolate saint pagoda and put it away.

He lightly raised his right hand, and a dense Yang Origin emerged from his palm, vanishing into the local Void Realm.

"Zhou Zhile, tell me where that heaven and earth miracle medicine is. I will go and seize it myself."

"You two just wait here."

Lin Ran said calmly.

Zhou Zhile looked worried. "Banished Sword Immortal, are you going to fight for the heaven and earth miracle medicine alone?"

"That's far too dangerous. How about I go with you?"

Lin Ran smiled and shook his head:

"The place is full of Bizarre Dao Creatures at the Heavenly Palace Realm. What use would it be for you to accompany me?"

An extra person would only be a burden to him.

He had already planted the Yang Origin here; even if he died, he could be resurrected at this spot.

As for his external treasures, he had thrown them all into the nine spirits desolate saint pagoda.

No one but him could possibly open the gates of the nine spirits desolate saint pagoda.

Let alone opening it with brute force—that was even more impossible!

One must realize that even he didn't know the full quality of the nine spirits desolate saint pagoda yet, but its origin was surely immense!

Even Bizarre Dao Creatures of the Heavenly Palace Realm couldn't hope to breach the nine spirits desolate saint pagoda by force!

"Lord Banished Sword Immortal, think about it. I have a token on me. As long as I crush it, I can leave the Ghostly Domain in an instant."

"With this token, perhaps I can buy some time for you?"

"Even if it's just a brief moment, wouldn't that help you better seize that heaven and earth miracle medicine, My Lord?"

Zhou Zhili's eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly, smiling cleverly. "Great, then I'll go with Sister!"

"If Sister can buy a brief moment for Lord Banished Sword Immortal, then with me added, wouldn't that be twice as much time?"

Hearing this, Zhou Zhile couldn't find any words to refute her. She could only pat Zhou Zhili's head and let out a soft sigh:

"You really are a clever little ghost."

Zhou Zhili chuckled sillily.

She knew that when Zhou Zhile spoke like that, it usually meant she had agreed.

Lin Ran's expression became a bit awkward as he said, "But if you do that, won't you be unable to hunt any more Bizarre Dao Creatures?"

Previously, when he saved Zhou Zhile and Zhou Zhili, the two women had already repaid the favor with the heads of Bizarre Dao Creatures and information about the heaven and earth miracle medicine.

And now, to help him obtain that heaven and earth miracle medicine, Zhou Zhile and Zhou Zhili were even willing to crush their tokens and leave the Ghostly Domain.

This was another significant favor for him.

Zhou Zhile waved her hand slightly and said calmly:

"It's fine. Zhili and I never had a strong obsession with the position of World Walker. Being able to become True Disciples of the Kunlun Sect together is enough for us."

"Besides, if the Banished Sword Immortal hadn't stepped in to save us just now, Zhili and I would have likely been sent back to the Kunlun Dao Field long ago, let alone hunting Bizarre Dao Creatures."

Zhou Zhili also urged from the side, "Lord Banished Sword Immortal, don't hesitate any longer!"

"Although Sister and I have already given you all the heads of the Bizarre Dao Creatures we hunted earlier,"

"as long as we hunt a few more Bizarre Dao Creatures on the way to find the heaven and earth miracle medicine, we'll still have something to show the Sect Leader."

"Lord Banished Sword Immortal, if you hesitate any longer, things might change for the worse!"

[Ding! Detected that the Host has triggered a new Heavenly Mandate Mission. Please make the following choice!]

[Option 1: As the Son of Destiny, how could I possibly need help from mere women like you?!]

[Mission: Refuse the help of Zhou Zhile and Zhou Zhili!]

[Reward: 16,000 destiny points, one "Iron-Headed Brat" Halo!]

[Option 2: As the Son of Destiny, one should know how to assess the situation!]

[Mission: Accept the help of Zhou Zhile and Zhou Zhili!]

[Reward: 16,000 destiny points, one Low-Grade Concealment Talisman!]

[Note: Although the Low-Grade Concealment Talisman can hide one's Aura and figure, it is easily interrupted by external factors!]

Lin Ran's eyes narrowed slightly as he glanced at the mission options, thinking to himself, "I choose Option 2!"

With the help of Zhou Zhile and Zhou Zhili, plus this Low-Grade Concealment Talisman, he indeed had a very high chance of obtaining that heaven and earth miracle medicine!

"Since you both insist, it would seem indecisive of me to refuse any further."

"I will keep this kindness in my heart. If you ever need anything in the future, please do not hesitate to find me."

Lin Ran gave a warm smile and cupped his fists toward the two women.

"Lord Banished Sword Immortal, you can repay us with your bod— mmmph mmmph..."

Zhou Zhile quickly covered Zhou Zhili's mouth to prevent the silly girl from talking any more nonsense.

"Hehe, Banished Sword Immortal, time is of the essence. Let us set off now."

Lin Ran smiled awkwardly. "Hehe, let's go."

The three of them took to the air, turning into three streaks of light as they hurried toward the Marsh Forest Zhou Zhile had mentioned.

...

Within the Marsh Forest.

Bizarre Dao Creatures at the Heavenly Palace Realm were lurking here in numbers too great to count on both hands.

They watched like tigers eyeing their prey, every single one of them staring intently at the heaven and earth miracle medicine in the very center of the Marsh Forest!
