Chapter 913 Prophet
Jing Yu stared at the white mouse in front of her, which was missing an ear. Suddenly, she made a healing spell. A green light flashed, and the white mouse's missing ear began to slowly heal.
But Jing Yu frowned: "The recovery is so slow."
With his current cultivation level, restoring the physical body of a mouse that is barely at the Qi Refining stage would not require much mana, and the healing effect would be immediate, basically restoring it to its original state in the blink of an eye.
However, even as Jing Yu continued to increase the amount of true essence he poured into the mouse, the mouse's ears were only growing flesh and blood at an extremely slow pace.
"【Nine Lives of a Tanuki】does indeed have the miraculous ability to bring the dead back to life, but it takes effect after an hour. In general, if you encounter a battle, your opponent will have already left after an hour. At this time, the cultivator with 【Nine Lives of a Tanuki】will be able to escape death and be resurrected."
"But if the opponent stays in the same spot for more than an hour, they will be able to discover the secret of the fate holder's resurrection. Then the fate will not be so useful. Without assistance, it will only result in being killed by the opponent a few more times."
Jing Yu pondered, "Moreover, the physical body sacrificed by the [Nine Lives of the Tanuki] is extremely difficult to recover. Even with a strong recovery ability, it is not something that can be done overnight... For body cultivators who cultivate both body and magic, there may still be a possibility of recovery, but for ordinary cultivators who mainly cultivate the Nascent Soul Dharma Image or the Divine Refiner who cultivates the Divine Spirit, this part of the physical body is probably sacrificed and can never be recovered."
"The core of this destiny lies in protecting the soul; the sacrificed flesh and blood are more like a secret technique of 'substitute death,' which is quite interesting..."
At this moment, Jing Yu withdrew the Xuanjun's blessing power, but the little white mouse in her palm remained unharmed.
"Even after the [Nine Lives of the Tanuki] Life Bead was removed, the white mouse did not die instantly... Doesn't that mean that this Life Bead is equivalent to a [Substitute Death Talisman] of extremely high rank? If the two forces are fighting each other, the cultivators on the battlefield are essentially given an extra life... It's just that they can't participate in the battle again for an hour."
Jing Yu looked slightly excited, then glared at the little white mouse.
bang——
The white mouse, which had just come back to life, was once again turned into a pile of minced meat.
An hour later, the white mouse came back to life again. This time, the white mouse, which was already missing an ear, also lost one of its front paws.
Jing Yu remained expressionless and once again used his immense divine sense to crush the white mouse into dust.
After the white mouse revived four times, it was killed for the fifth time, and then the pile of minced meat remained motionless.
Jing Yu waited for a full day and night, but the white mouse did not revive for the fifth time.
"It seems they're really dead this time."
Jing Yu muttered, "The [Mysterious Lord's Blessing] version of [Nine Lives of a Tanuki] can only die four times?"
"What happened to the rounding rule?"
Having figured out the characteristics of the [Nine Lives of a Tanuki]'s destiny and the number of times it could die in place of another, Jing Yu felt a great weight lifted from her heart. She got up and left the cave, heading towards the Zhong family's secret vault.
Next, he will focus all his efforts on body refinement, rapidly advancing his body refinement realm by consuming large quantities of various body refinement medicines in a short period of time!

On a desolate star at the very edge of the Nine Chapters Starfield, a dim portal stretches across the void.
Li Huaiyou was wrapped in a thick sable cloak, and his pale face looked even more sickly under the starlight.
A faint protective shield appeared around him; this was a talisman that Li Huaiyou had purchased at a high price at an auction.
This talisman has no other magical properties; its only function is to help cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage traverse the starry sky without the protection of the laws.
A cold glint gathered at his fingertips, and he gently sliced open the already loosened restrictions of the secret realm, his figure drifting into it like a snowflake.
"Cough... Just as I remembered."
Li Huaiyou was entering a secret realm of immortals that was famous in his previous life.
This secret realm is said to have been left behind by a true immortal, containing not only the remains of this immortal, but also all his treasures and inheritances from his lifetime.
In his previous life, this secret realm was hidden in this desolate starry sky. It was only by chance that a cultivator from the Cave Heaven Realm who was traveling through the starry sky stumbled upon it, obtained all the inheritances and treasures of the True Immortal Secret Realm, and soared to the heavens.
According to the original trajectory of history in Li Huaiyou's memory, this secret realm was discovered by that Cave Heaven Realm cultivator more than 3,400 years ago.
This secret realm is the closest undiscovered treasure to Shending Star. This matter is of great importance, as the True Immortal Secret Realm is something that even the Shending Immortal Dynasty covets. Li Huaiyou dared not tell anyone, so he spent a lot of money to buy a talisman that could traverse the starry sky and secretly came to dig for the treasure alone.
"Cough... These talismans are really not durable, yet they are so expensive. Fortunately, if I were to obtain the treasures in this True Immortal Secret Realm, their value would be comparable to thousands upon thousands of such talismans."
Li Huaiyou also felt a sense of urgency: "My cultivation started much later than those ascended cultivators in the Immortal Continent. I must frantically seek opportunities in order to quickly advance my realm and catch up with them."
"I originally planned to come after I reached the Nascent Soul stage... but I just couldn't wait any longer!"
"This true immortal realm is the beginning of my rise to power, Li Huaiyou!"
Li Huaiyou flew confidently through the secret realm, heading towards the place where the true immortal might have passed away.
He wasn't afraid of any dangerous traps or mechanisms here, because in his memory, the immortal who had passed away here was a righteous cultivator with a kind and benevolent nature. Otherwise, the cultivator from that cave wouldn't have been able to obtain the treasures in this secret realm so easily.
After all, in terms of the methods left behind by true immortals, there is almost no difference between the Cave Heaven Realm and the Nascent Soul Realm.
After flying for an unknown amount of time, Li Huaiyou finally caught sight of a palace floating in the air in the distance.
"found it!"
Li Huaiyou was excited and quickly flew to the palace gate. Seeing that the gate was half-closed, he assumed that it was a chance left by the immortal senior for future generations.
He did not immediately enter the hall, but instead stood before the hall's entrance, respectfully bowing with his hands clasped in greeting.
“Senior, Huaiyou has received your inheritance and treasures today, which means he has accepted your karma. If you still have a lineage or descendants, Huaiyou will surely return all the inheritance and treasures after he attains the Celestial Immortal realm.”
"Please bless Huaiyou, senior, so that he may attain the Great Dao soon and eradicate the remaining evils of the Immortal Continent..."
After saying this, he bowed several more times before leisurely walking into the hall.
But as soon as he entered the hall, Li Huaiyou was dumbfounded.
The main hall in front of us was completely empty. Not to mention the remains of some immortals or the treasures passed down through generations, even the incense burner and other decorations on the offering platform had vanished!
Almost everything that could be taken from the entire hall was looted.
"This... how is this possible?" Li Huaiyou said in disbelief, "In my previous life, that cultivator from the grotto-heaven only discovered this secret realm more than three thousand years later... why, why..."
An absurd idea flashed through his mind—
Someone opened the secret realm ahead of time and took away the treasures passed down here!
