Chapter 96

Since the founding of the sect,

the Great Profound Xuan Sect has never produced a single disciple like Lin Bai!

Upon hearing this, the other Elders immediately chimed in agreement!

At this moment,

Master Qi Hong looked at Lin Bai, who was now in a deep coma, pale as death, severely injured and poisoned, and his heart was stirred by a storm of shock!

"This young man..."

His breathing was rapid; after understanding the situation, he, like the others, found it hard to believe!

With only a Foundation Establishment cultivation base, he had killed the opposing Elder!

Such a heaven-defying feat made him dare not even imagine how Lin Bai had accomplished it!

But...

Master Qi Hong knew deeply that now was not the time to dwell on such matters; he must treat Lin Bai as soon as possible!

"Lin Bai is injured too severely; the situation is very dire!"

He had merely examined Lin Bai's injuries, and with a grim expression, he said, "The poison has already been spreading continuously through the meridians within his body. Combined with the severe injuries and the exhaustion of his spiritual power, if the poison spreads any further, he will surely die!"

Upon hearing this,

the group of Elders' faces changed drastically, their hearts sinking to the bottom!

"Then... then is there no way!?"

Xu Rui asked urgently, completely unable to remain calm!

Hearing these words,

Master Qi Hong frowned tightly, an astonishing aura radiating from his body as he placed his hand on Lin Bai's chest.

"I will first protect his heart meridians to prevent the poison from spreading excessively."

Seizing the opportunity, he examined Lin Bai's injuries in detail and sighed, "The injuries are truly too severe; for him to have survived until now is already a miracle!"

"There is still a way, but..."

Regarding this,

Xu Rui and the others immediately grew anxious.

"Sect Master, but what?"

Their hearts skipped a beat, and they immediately sensed something was wrong.

Master Qi Hong shook his head and said, "You all go out first. I will treat Lin Bai's injuries; currently, we can no longer continue to delay!"

"Sect Master..."

They looked at Master Qi Hong before them with full expectation, placing their hopes upon him!

After the crowd left the room,

Master Qi Hong stared tightly at the unconscious Lin Bai and took a deep breath!

"Truly an unexpected young man!"

"Whether he can survive depends on yourself..."

He sighed, and the void around his body began to distort!

Immediately, with a wave of his hand, brilliant light filled the entire room!

A stream of purest spiritual power flowed from his palm, continuously merging into Lin Bai's chest!

Outside the room,

the First Elder was full of self-reproach, his eyes revealing a worry unlike any before.

"If only I had protected Lin Bai earlier; it is all my fault..."

He turned back to glance at the room, felt the fluctuation of the aura, and let out a long sigh!

If Lin Bai failed to survive, he might blame himself for the rest of his life!

After all, up to now,

no one could compare with Lin Bai's outstandingness!

Already at the Foundation Establishment Realm, he was able to comprehend the unity of man and sword!

Already at the Foundation Establishment Realm, he could slay the Sigong!

Such a prodigy is the fortune of the Great Profound Xuan Sect!

If he were to perish here, it would be a huge loss!

Upon hearing this, the other Elders also had dim expressions.

"I hope the Sect Master can save Lin Bai..."

They prayed in their hearts, waiting quietly outside.

Several hours later,

"Come in."

A voice came from inside the room.

Xu Rui and the others looked up suddenly and rushed in hurriedly!

"Sect Master, how is Lin Bai's condition!?"

"He... he has not awakened yet?!"

They asked urgently, and seeing Lin Bai still in a state of coma, they could not help but panic!

Seeing the panicked crowd,

Master Qi Hong remained silent for a moment, then said, "Lin Bai has already been removed from danger; there is no threat to his life."

Upon hearing this,

everyone felt a surge of joy, but seeing Master Qi Hong's grim expression, their hearts sank.

"Sect Master?"

They swallowed hard, a bad premonition rising in their hearts.

After a moment of silence,

Master Qi Hong showed a trace of reluctance on his face and sighed deeply: "I have done my utmost, but..."

"... Lin Bai was injured too severely. The scripture within the body has had the vast majority of its meridians rupture, several ribs are broken, and although the poison has been mostly eliminated after treatment, a portion has penetrated too deeply to be completely eradicated."

"For him to fully recover will take at least a year and a half, and moreover... there is a very high probability of lasting aftereffects!"

As he spoke the final words, his eyes, looking at Lin Bai, were filled with regret!

Seeing this,

Xu Rui and others trembled, their eyes full of disbelief.

"Aft... aftereffects!?"

"Th... then what about Lin Bai???"

Their faces turned pale, their bodies trembling uncontrollably!

From the Sect Master's words, they sensed something ominous!

Master Qi Hong nodded and said: "The so-called aftereffects mean that Lin Bai will likely never be able to cultivate again; to put it bluntly, he is ruined..."

Boom!!!

These words made the minds of Elder Xu Rui and the others roar, their pupils suddenly contracting.

"What!!?"

Their hearts trembled violently, and their breathing even stopped!

Lin Bai...

Even though there is no longer a danger to his life, even if he can recover, he will become a cripple!?

For a cultivator,

being unable to cultivate is simply more painful than being killed oneself!

And now, this matter,

has happened to Lin Bai!!!

After a moment of stunned silence...

Xu Rui's expression gradually turned fierce, and his aura radiated uncontrollably!

"Tianji Sect..."

He ground his teeth, his killing intent surging as he said: "Sect Master, the matter of Lin Bai cannot be left like this!!"
