Chapter 768.
Chapter 768 – Healing Wounds
The king sighed languidly, his tone a little low.
“The Dragon Sacred Tree, is a well-deserved divine object, but in your hands is just a branch, with that bit of healing law, it can’t cure the injuries on my body.”
“I was invited by the duo of Wu Shen and Gui Zhi to travel all the way from the Human Race to the Tree People Kingdom, so I can’t just leave without doing anything, right?
Since I accepted Wu Shen’s deposit, I naturally have to do my best to give it a try.”
The king pondered briefly, and ultimately did not reject Wu Shen and Gui Zhi’s piece of filial piety any longer.
“That’s just it, since you won’t die, take a good look at my old bones.”
“Offense.”
With permission, Xu Chuniang then released her divine sense, carefully probing every part of the white giant wood, refusing to let go of any of the leaves.
Half an hour later, she withdrew her divine sense, a look of gravity in her eyes.
Previously, she took a cursory glance and only saw the surface injuries, and only after careful probing did she realize that the root system that was rooted in the soil had festered ninety percent of the way, and it was entangled with karmic grievances and coiled roots.
It is indeed difficult to cure these disease-ridden diseases.
The king sent out a divine thought with a bland tone.
“How about it, after seeing the injuries on my body, do you still have confidence?”
Xu Chuniang mused before saying, “The karmic resentment on the root system, I don’t dare to dip into it for now, let’s start with the branches and leaves first.”
With that, she offered up the twig and fed a large amount of spiritual qi into it.
The twig leisurely sucked in all the spiritual qi, transforming it into a pure healing law that landed on some of the branches and leaves of the white giant tree.
After absorbing this healing law, the leaves were revitalized and regained some vitality.
Unfortunately, the body of the white ancient wood was too massive, and this part of the branches and leaves she healed was less than one percent of the entire ancient wood.
“It’s useless, don’t waste your efforts.”
Wang Shang’s tone was bland, as if he had already seen through life and death.
“You do this to treat the symptoms but not the root cause, karmic resentment is not removed, these branches and leaves are rootless wood, waterless ping ping, sooner or later can not escape a word of death.”
“Now on the conclusion, is not too early?”
Xu Chuniang said, walking towards the only part of the root system that was intact, collecting the twigs, and offering up the Dual Life Dharma Domain.
The king saw what she was planning to do and pondered.
In order to heal her injuries, she had taken the Spring of Life and watered the injured and festering root system, but it had yielded little results and wasted much of the Spring of Life.
Later, she slowly extinguished this thought.
This celebrity cultivator seemed to be preparing to send the Laws of Life into those roots in her body that were still intact.
Xu Chuniang’s thoughts were simple, the king’s injuries were too severe, and fully ninety percent of the root systems were eroded by the power of karmic grievances.
These karmic grudges were very difficult to remove, and if they were accidentally tainted, they could even harm themselves.
If she wanted to save her life, she could only start with the remaining 10% of the root system, so that those intact roots would be free from the karmic grudges.
She activated the Dual Life Law Domain, condensed the Laws of Birth, and sent it into the intact root systems at her feet.
After absorbing these Laws of Birth, these root systems were as if they had drunk a tonic, growing several tiny roots.
“Well, it does feel a bit more comfortable. However, this method is just a lingering one that will allow me to live for a few more days.”
The king’s attitude eased a bit.
“Really? What about this?”
Xu Chuniang smiled faintly, put away her Twin Life Dharma Domain, and pointed towards a thumb-sized festering root system next to her. Her entire body’s aura was suddenly drained, and a large amount of Void Laws then coalesced out, landing on top of this small cut-off root system.
In just a breath or two, this section of the root system was completely turned into nothingness by the Laws of Void, along with the karmic grievances on it.
Feeling that a small cut of the rotting root system on his body had disappeared, Wang Shang’s heart and mind shook with a sense of unbelievable absurdity.
She had tried before, cutting off the festering root system, but the karmic grievance power entangled in it could not be cut off at all.
Unexpectedly, a tiny Void Refining Stage human cultivator was able to do something that even she was unable to do.
But after the shock passed, her mind quickly returned to calm.
There were more than thousands of roots in her body, and the karmic grievances were even more difficult to deal with, so even if she chopped off a small section, it didn’t make much sense.
Since she practiced the Way of Karma, she should have known that dying in accordance with the calamity was her destiny.
A trace of frustration flashed through Wang Shang’s heart, and then he faintly said, ”I admit that you have a few skills, if you have the cultivation of the Harmonization Stage, you might really be able to help me cure my injuries.
But the cultivation gap between you and me is ultimately too great, twice the effort and half the result.”
“What the king said is true, but being entrusted with the task of being loyal, I’m just doing what I have to do. Every other day in the future, I will come to heal your wounds.”
Xu Chuniang arched her hand and bowed, saying her farewells before turning to leave.
On the way back, Wu Shen and Gui Zhi, had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing that the one who came back was an unfamiliar female cultivator, the two of them were first startled, and then they surrounded her and asked, “Who are you? How dare you trespass into my Tree People Kingdom?”
Xu Chuniang clasped her fists and confessed.
“Not to hide from you, I am precisely ‘Xu Dahai’ also, previously offended the seven great families in the Human Race, I had no choice but to disguise myself to avoid trouble, not intentionally deceiving the two of you.”
Wu Shen and Gui Zhi looked at each other, somewhat skeptical.
“Could it be that you are that female cultivator, Xu Chuniang, who caused the Meng Clan to place a ban on sealing the city?”
“It’s me alright.”
Wu Shen’s face abruptly turned ugly.
“Then your so-called Ancestral Divine Tree is also a fake? You deliberately released those rumors in order to lure us in so that you could be taken away from the Human Race’s domain!”
Gui Zhi’s eyes became unkind even as she looked at Xu Chuniang.
Wu Shen was right, the human cultivators were indeed skillful in calculating!
“I admit that I used the two of you to take me away from the Human Race, but the fact that I carry the Divine Tree is not a lie, and the Laws that I have comprehended can suppress your king’s injuries!”
The anger on Wu Shen’s face condensed, “Is this true? You can really suppress the king’s injuries?”
“Whether it’s true or not, won’t you know if you go ask your king later?
Since she let me go, it means I’m not a liar, think carefully, your king is a cultivator of the Ferrying Stage, would she be deceived by me?”
When Wu Shen and Gui Zhi thought about it, it was indeed so reasonable.
After pondering, he said, “As long as you can cure the king’s injuries, I can forget about it, however, the only ones you have offended should be the Meng family, not the seven great families, right?”
“The Meng family, is only the lineage that stands out in the open, perhaps in their eyes, one Meng family is enough to crush me to death.”
Xu Chuniang’s tone was bland, but there was a cold aura in her eyes, sooner or later, one day, she would ask the seven great lineages to pay back this debt!
Gui Zhi was not interested in these matters, her only concern was the king’s injury.
“You said earlier that the law you comprehended was able to suppress the injuries on the king’s body? How exactly is it suppressed?”
