On the wedding night, the substitute princess cured the war king's poison

"How can I pray to pick this soul-returning flower?" Ning Luo asked depressedly.

"Tell it why you need it, you must tell the true purpose, and pray with a sincere wish." A skeleton said.

This was the method he heard from Acasso.

"If your heart is not sincere, the Soul Resurrection Tree will sense it and will not give you the flower."

"This soul-returning flower only blooms three hundred years ago. It is very precious and only saves those who are destined to have it."

"What are the standard gestures of prayer?"

"Kneel down and put your right hand on your chest."

Ning Luo nodded and knelt down towards the soul-returning tree.

Putting his right hand on his chest, he said loudly to the Soul-Returning Tree:

"Beautiful soul-returning tree, please give me the soul-returning flower. I need this soul-returning flower to refine the soul-returning incense to save my husband."

"He is a hero who protects his family and country. He is only 21 years old now. He is young and promising. He once made great military exploits for the country and protected many people. However, he was framed and poisoned when he was young. Now, He is in danger, and he needs your soul-returning fragrance to survive."

As soon as the voice fell, the forest of soul-returning trees was filled with splendor.

A heavenly sound suddenly sounded.

"If your heart to save people is firm and pious enough, use your blood to water the soul-returning tree in exchange for the soul-returning flowers you need. The more blood you pour, the more soul-returning flowers you will get."

It was the first time for all the skeletons to hear the voice of the tree god. They knelt down in excitement and cried and begged. Unfortunately, they had neither flesh nor tears.

"Tree God, please save us too, we don't want to be skeletons forever."

"Don't save greedy people, don't save people who deserve to die, don't save people who have no destiny."

The ethereal sounds of nature fell and echoed in the cave for a long time.

Hearing this, the skeleton man gave up completely and started crying again.

They were soldiers sent by the previous king to retrieve the soul incense for the king's immortality. Unexpectedly, they encountered the old monster Acaso. Not only did their mission fail to be completed, but their lives were lost here.

Akasso threw their bodies into the River Styx to feed the snakes.

Then he picked up the bones, smelled the soul-reviving incense for them, and made them come back to life and be his slaves forever.

Some companions escaped by chance, but brought disaster to their families.

Who can know a relative who has turned into a skeleton? The family members are either scared to death or crazy.

The skeletons also took away the turbid air in the cave, causing a plague in Dawan, killing many people, so the king had to send a great wizard to seal the place.

I didn’t expect that anyone would dare to dig holes and ask for medicine today.

This Yanguo woman is the only survivor.

Not only was he not eaten by the giant snake, but the tree god also appeared.

He is a person with a predestined relationship with God.

They couldn't help but look at Ning Luo with a hint of admiration.

Ning Luo was indifferent and said slowly: "Thank you to the tree god for your instructions."

She stood up, walked to a soul-returning tree, took out the dagger without hesitation, and cut a knife into the palm of her hand.

A stream of warm blood slipped from her palm, dripped on the roots of the Soul Resurrection Tree, and was absorbed instantly.

The soul-returning flowers on the soul-returning tree sway gently.

One flower, two flowers, three flowers...

Dozens of soul-returning flowers automatically fell from the branches.

Ning Luo didn't know how many soul-returning flowers it took to refine enough soul-returning incense. After cutting off her left hand, she also cut off her right hand.

By the time the blood flow was almost gone, her body was extremely weak.

However, there are more and more soul-returning flowers on the ground.

Ning Luo took off her outer robe, picked up the soul-returning flower that fell on the ground and wrapped it up.

"Take me to the place where Akasso refines the soul-returning incense."

"Yes."

The skeleton completely surrendered to her.

He can summon gods and is not afraid of death. Such a brave master is worth following.

Besides, she promised to take them home.

Ning Luo, led by the skeleton man, walked through the layers of soul-returning woods and walked into a huge stone house.

There are stone beds, stone tables, and a huge jade tripod on the stove.

There is a crystal coffin next to it, and inside lies a very beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes.

"who is she?"

"This is Avaina, the founding princess of Dawan. She hanged herself to escape Akasuo's proposal. In order to save her, Akasuo found this soul-returning forest and has been guarding it here for hundreds of years." A skeleton man said.

"Acaso can refine soul-returning incense, why is she still lying here?"

"Because the soul-returning incense only saves those who are destined to be together, Acaso said that the gods wanted to punish him for his sins, so he refined the soul-returning incense and lived for hundreds of years. However, Aliena was desperate to die, but the soul-returning incense could not save her."

"The king outside is pursuing immortality, but even taking the soul-returning incense won't work. Many people have come but it's all in vain. You are the second person to ask the tree god to respond."

Ning Luo understood and looked at the jade tripod. It was empty.

"Can the soul-returning incense be refined by putting the soul-returning flower into this jade cauldron?"

The skeleton said: "You need to make a fire and boil it for a day and a night, turning it over and over until the flowers turn into ointment."

Ning Luo nodded and poured the wrapped soul-returning flowers into the jade cauldron.

"Go and collect firewood for me."

"Yes."

Ning Luo guarded the jade cauldron and didn't close her eyes all night, constantly turning over the paste inside.

Gradually, a strange fragrance floats out, and the person who smells it feels relaxed physically and mentally, as if he has absorbed a spiritual power.

The wound on Ning Luo's palm healed automatically, and his whole body became energetic.

The skeleton next to him didn't change at all.
