Chapter 104 Healing
"Master, we will look outside tomorrow. If we still can't find it, then the Spiritual Medicine Valley may not be in this area." In fact, they came to this area first because the teleportation point is closest to here.
The various areas within the Lingxiao Secret Realm will change over time. This is a general rule summarized over hundreds of years. However, by chance, there are occasionally some years when the environment within the secret realm will overlap with a certain map. Even if it does not completely overlap, maps within three years still have certain reference value.
The lighting beads suspended in the cave emitted a cold bluish-white light. Ning Xuan looked at the two sheepskin maps spread out on the table, and her fingertips gently ran over the cinnabar mark that marked the Spiritual Medicine Valley.
Although they did not find the Spiritual Medicine Valley, they were not without gain in the past two days. Ning Xuan took out three herbs from the space button. Each herb had only three leaves. The leaves were slender and sharp, emitting a silver-blue glow. There were star spots on the leaves, reflecting fine brilliance under the illuminating beads.
"This star grass is 30 years old. Although it's not very old, it's just right for use." Ning Xuan said as she looked at the star grass with satisfaction.
The other two herbs are snake scale wood and ambergris. Compared with star grass, these two herbs are relatively ordinary. It just so happens that these three herbs can be used to make a mid-level compound potion, Ambergris Clearing Miasma Potion. Every contestant who enters the Lingxiao Secret Realm and their companions are inspected before entering the secret realm. Daily necessities, food or weapons can be brought into the secret realm, but exotic herbs or any finished potions are not allowed to be brought in.
It has been three days since they entered the Lingxiao Secret Realm. During these three days, Ning Xuan and her companions have been looking for a place to stay, clearing dangerous factors, and searching for the Spiritual Medicine Valley. They have also been paying attention to finding useful medicines. The three herbs that Ning Xuan took out are part of all their harvest.
"Lin Mo, take off your shirt." Ning Xuan put the star grass aside, turned around and gave Lin Mo an order.
Lin Mo blushed suddenly. He looked at Chen Nan and hesitated for a moment, feeling embarrassed.
"What are you dawdling for? Hurry up." Ning Xuan frowned and scolded him when she saw him dawdling.
"Master, can we go to the bed?" Lin Mo was very reluctant to take off his clothes in front of Chen Nan, and couldn't help but speak.
"I'm here to check your injuries, why are you going to bed?" Ning Xuan realized that Lin Mo might have misunderstood her, and said with a look of disgust.
"Thank you for your concern, Master. They are all minor injuries. They are nothing serious." Lin Mo then remembered that he did suffer some superficial injuries in the rioting energy field. However, he did not take those injuries seriously.
"Take it off." Ning Xuan looked at him and uttered a word.
"Master, I'll go check the conditions of other caves first." Chen Nan stood up and said to Ning Xuan.
Ning Xuan looked at Lin Mo, then at Chen Nan, somewhat confused. It was so normal for men to be shirtless and bare-chested in public.
"You have a good figure, are you afraid of Anan seeing it?" Ning Xuan said with a smile.
Lin Mo lowered his head to unbutton his sleeves and took off his shirt. He had broad shoulders and a thin back, with beautiful lines and full curves that were full of power. However, there were many purple scars on Lin Mo's flat abdomen and broad shoulders and back, and three deep wounds on his shoulder blades that could be seen to the bone. Strangely, there was no blood on the wounds, only dark purple bruises spreading along the meridians, as if they were moving under the skin.
Ning Xuan took out a sterile cotton pad from the medicine box and pressed it on the wound on Lin Mo's shoulder blade, and asked him, "Does it hurt?"
Lin Mo shook his head, "It doesn't hurt." Not only did he not feel any pain, he even only felt a slight touch, and it was a numb feeling as if there was something between them.
"You've been poisoned. If you don't treat these injuries, they will probably be more serious tomorrow." Ning Xuan grabbed Lin Mo's hand and pulled it back, letting him touch the deep wound on his shoulder blade where the bone was visible.
Lin Mo was surprised when he felt the wound, then he looked down at the bruises on his abdomen with an embarrassed look on his face, "Master, I didn't know it was so serious. Normally, such a small injury would have healed long ago."
This time when entering the secret realm, the high-level spirit controllers not only had their mental power levels severely suppressed, but their physical fitness was also suppressed, and their body recovery ability became much worse.
Ning Xuan carefully examined his wounds, and then opened the deepest wound to check for bruises. Finally, she confirmed that it was the poison of miasma. This miasma existed in every corner of the secret realm. If there was no injury, everything would be fine. Once someone was injured, the miasma would invade the human body through the wound.
After the examination, Ning Xuan pricked the wound on Lin Mo's shoulder blade and squeezed out the purple-black blood clots. She then used golden needles to seal the surrounding acupuncture points to prevent the poisonous blood from spreading. Then she took out the Panlong Purple Patterned Medicine Furnace and quickly used herbs such as Star Grass to refine a mid-level compound potion, Ambergris Clearing Miasma Potion. The finished potion was dark blue and translucent, filled with starlight, and looked very beautiful.
Ning Xuan sprinkled the medicine on the wound that Lin Mo had just been pricked. There was a "sizzling" sound, and as soon as the skin at the wound came into contact with the medicine, a lot of white foam emerged, and there were wisps of black smoke. Lin Mo felt that the wound was suddenly sprinkled with salt, or as if hot sand and thorns were thrown into it, and it was like being gnawed by millions of poisonous ants.
The sharp pain made him scream out in pain. Lin Mo's suppressed roar echoed in the cave. His curled five fingers dug deeply into his palms, his knuckles turned blue and white, his palms were pinched and bleeding, his face was pale, his forehead was covered in cold sweat, his back rose and fell violently, and he even tried to avoid Ning Xuan's control.
"Don't move, just bear with it!" Ning Xuan shouted angrily in a cold voice.
Lin Mo felt the pain engulfing his consciousness like a tsunami. A vortex of scarlet and dark blue exploded in front of his eyes. He tasted the blood rising up in his throat. His teeth bit his lower lip until it was bloody, but he couldn't resist the trembling of death. His body spasmed uncontrollably. This feeling was like torture.
Lin Mo never thought that healing an injury would be so painful. Just when he was about to be torn apart by the pain, a cool feeling like a clear spring suddenly rose from his tailbone. The pain receded like a tide, the black smoke from the wound gradually dissipated, the purple spots faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a translucent film grew between the festering skin and flesh. Lin Mo fell on the stone platform with his pupils dilated and out of focus, as if his soul had been taken away and all his strength had been exhausted.
Chen Nan turned back when he heard Lin Mo's miserable howls. Just by hearing the noise, he was afraid that something might happen to Lin Mo, so he thought of coming back to stop him. After he came back, the painful roars stopped abruptly.
Lin Mo felt that the time spent healing his wounds just now seemed very long, but in reality, only a few minutes had passed.
