Chapter 2395 Cost Of Being A Saviour



2395  Cost Of Being A Saviour


A large burst of energy and aura was released from Lady Kang's body as all the black tar within her body was purged. The curse was fully eliminated and only a faint screech was heard among the roars of the two proud beasts.


Despite the injuries they had sustained, they were victorious and could now return to Lin Mu.


But their injuries were not simple, since they were the representative of Lin Mu's own body cultivation and his bloodline. He had used them as a proxy to do all the battles, but the damage done to them was endured by him too. As such, he was still in pain.


Though Lin Mu couldn't be seen right now as the wave of aura was clouding everyone's vision.


~WHOOSH~


A few seconds later, it finally settled and the two individuals could be seen.


"Daoist Lin Mu!" Crown Prince Feng Shun and the others called out.


"Lady Kang!" Elder Hu and Min Ju called out anxiously and rushed to check.


Upon getting closer, they saw that Lady Kang had returned to the normal state. Her energy was still a bit unstable, but that much was expected by them. Elder Hu quickly checked upon Lady Kang's internal state with his immortal sense and saw that her body was now clear of the curse, though a large part of her immortal Qi had been depleted leaving her with barely a few percent.


Min Ju also approached and checked the woman, but she placed her hand on Lady Kang's abdomen to verify it directly.


~phew~


She took a breath of relief when things seemed fine to her. She quickly fed Lady Kang a few pills to help her recover before finally turning to Lin Mu.


The aftermath of the battle between the black worm and the two illusory beast figures was highly taxing for Lin Mu.


His vitality had dropped once more and the same could be said for his immortal Qi fluctuations. His body wasn't injured on the outside, but internally he had sustained quite a lot of them. His meridians had several cracks in them, and the same could be said for his Dantian that had been the battlefield between hundreds upon hundreds of bloodlines.


But that wasn't all, as his cultivation also seemed rather unstable.


"Daoist Lin Mu… His body's feels… weak?" Crown Princess Shang said seeing the state.


Crown Prince Feng Shun furrowed his brows and waited for Lin Mu to move before he checked. After all, they didn't know what state he was in.


Lin Mu had his eyes closed, as if exhausted, but he was still awake. He was simply trying to assess his internal condition.


"You certainly went above and beyond with this," Xukong spoke in his mind.


"It was what needed to be done." Lin Mu said in a tired voice. "So you accept the cost of it all?" Xukong asked, knowing all that Lin Mu's body was going through right now.


"Yes. A little cultivation doesn't matter when I can recover it in time." Lin Mu replied as a wave of heavy fatigue washed over him. "Ugh… I should have known…" he almost felt himself pass out.


"The Well of Slumber…" Xukong quickly realized, as a grew a bit anxious. "How much energy does your stomach have?" he asked. "There are remnants of the two guardian beasts' vitality that are still being digested." Lin Mu replied. "I've already willed the Nameless Technique of the Lost immortal to conserve it." He added.


"Hmm, will it last you long enough?" Xukong asked, as he couldn't estimate it in anyway.


This was highly dependent on Lin Mu himself and the duration of sleep that the Well of Slumber might send him into.


"It should." Lin Mu said, not feeling totally sure of it. "Alright." Xukong replied, though he wasn't fully relieved. "You need to leave this place. At least outside the Saintess will be able to handle things." He knew that going to the Saintess was the best option for Lin Mu.


That way, even if he didn't have enough vitality left in his stomach to last him for his period of uncontrolled slumber, the Saintess would still be able to imbue more into him. This wasn't a method that most immortals would be able to use at all, and was also why the Well of Slumber had been a bane for all those that had assimilated the Bloodline of the Great Slumber Bear.


"Yes, we all need to leave." Lin Mu agreed. "Our team is now weakened and the enemy is still in hiding." With Lady Kang out of the picture and he himself being unable to fight for the time being, Lin Mu knew that things were going to get tough.


There might be Crown Prince Feng Shun and the others, but there was no telling what Yao Changying might do next. At the very least, he was sure that the Black Fin Island members they killed weren't the last of them.


Plus, there was also the fact that Yao Changying was certainly able to control the Bridge Plane's arrays to some extent.


'Those tokens certainly allow movement though the space but only she seems to be able to control it.' Lin Mu thought to himself. 'That curse was also created by her and the token was merely used to summon it here.' He remembered the feeling of the Spatial rift opening.


It was controlled and had certainly been done through the approval of the arrays.


This also made Lin Mu realized that there was a reason they had not been able to find an end to the trial.


The goal of 'survival' would never be accomplished if the arrays didn't deem it enough. And if the one controlling the arrays didn't approve of it, perhaps they might never be able to leave it on their own.


Thinking of all this, Lin Mu knew there was only one way out.


'I'll have to get everyone out forcefully.' Lin Mu knew for sure. ~huu~


With that decided, he finally opened his eyes.
