Chapter 2388 Cursed


    Everyone anxiously looked at Lady Kang and racked their minds for what they could do.


    "How do we cure this?" Min Ju asked nervously. "Pills?"


    "They don''t seem to be working." Lin Mu shook his head. It was the first thing he had fed Lady Kang, and it didn''t show any signs of working.


    ''Even if it was working, I wouldn''t be able to check that without my Immortal sense.'' He thought to himself.


    The others discussed nonstop, thinking of different options, but none of them seemed to be guarantee to work. Lin Mu though, consulted someone he had the greatest hope of knowing.


    There was no way he was going to let anything happen to Lady Kang, especially considering the fact that she was in this state only because she hade to protect him. If she hadn''t used her ornaments to block the ck mass of worms, there was a chance it wouldn''t have targeted her in the first ce.


    But if Lin Mu had been left there, he didn''t know how bad his condition could have be.


    ''Would I have be the same as her?'' he wondered.


    ''Senior Xukong, what do we do now?'' Lin Mu questioned with great emotion.


    The spider which had been observing everything since the start had also been thinking about Lady Kang''s condition. After all, with Lin Mu having been in great danger, he had been anxious too, especially considering that he couldn''t full help him right now.


    Thus he was happy that Lady Kang had stepped in. And for something like this, he wouldn''t hesitate to help the woman too. "That ck Mass of worms was a type of a cursed technique." Xukong answered.


    "It was a curse!?" Lin Mu hadn''t expected that. It did seem like a technique to him at first, but after seeing the millions of tiny worms he thought that it was a modified form of the Yin Nascent Soul maggots. But now it seemed to have changed entirely again.


    "Yes, a vile one too." Xukong answered. "Whoever made this has prepared it for a long time and utilized quite a few things to make it. I can tell that there is more than just Withering Dao in there." He added.


    "It does seem to have an amalgamation of various Baleful energies in it too." Lin Mu said having observed some of the properties. "The way it broke off my Immortal Sense right away also makes me think there''s Death Qi too." "Yes, there''s definitely a significant portion of Death Qi in it." Xukong agreed. "This curse is meant to weaken an individual and corrupt them until nothing is left. You will have to be fast if you want to help her." He warned.


    "Of course, I''ll do whatever it takes." Lin Mu said with determination. "It won''t be easy… Lady Kang is able to endure it right now due to her unique cultivation. But there is no guarantee how long she''ll be able to take it. It''s also good that the monk is stalling the progress. Let him maintain that until you get to the Offering Hall." Xukong exined.


    "The Offering hall? Why?" Lin Mu questioned. "Is there something that we can make use of?" his eyes lit up.


    "Yes, to help her you will need vitality… lots of it." Xukong replied. "The pills you have right now won''t be enough, you''ll need to something even stronger." He added.


    "There''s a stronger pill there that can cure her?" Lin Mu asked, already going though the list of items.


    "No, it''s not a pill for her." Xukong replied. "The pills are for you." He said much to Lin Mu''s confusion.


    "Huh?" Lin Mu wondered if he had heard it wrong.


    "The solution to this is the vitality in your blood." Xukong spoke. "It is the richest source of it and what will helpbat her condition. The curse is working by draining her vitality and corrupting her Qi. As long as you can fight it with strong vitality, you just might be able to stop it entirely." He exined.


    Hearing that, Lin Mu was a bit shocked. He didn''t mind that he had to use his blood for it. It was a small price to pay for saving Lady Kang. "So the pills are blood regeneration pills?" Lin Mu guessed quickly after that.


    "Indeed. You''ll need a lot of them… even the ones you have in your ring are not enough." Xukong knew just how big of a stockpile of pills Lin Mu had.


    And among them there were plenty of healing pills, among which were the Blood Regeneration pills. But it was not going to be enough with the amount of blood Xukong knew Lin Mu would be using. ''So even the pills that others have won''t be enough.'' Lin Mu knew that if Xukong was suggesting this, he had already considered that option beforehand.


    The others were carrying Blood Regeneration pills too as it was one of the basic healing pills one must have especially on an expedition like this. They would also hand them to Lin Mu without a moment of hesitation, but despite all that, it wouldn''t be enough.


    The only other ce with any significant stock of such pills was the Offering Hall.


    "I''ll exin the rest to you on the way there, you should get moving right now." Xukong urged him.


    "Alright." Lin Mu said before picking up Lady Kang. "We''re going to the Offering Hall." He said out loud.


    "If its just a safe ce, wouldn''t it be better to go to the Base instead?" Daoist Chu asked thinking that Lin Mu wanted to continue this somewhere safe.


    "We need the things from the Offering Hall?" Crown Prince Feng Shun guessed quickly. "Let''s go then." He knew how urgent the matter was.


    Elder Hu and Min Ju didn''t say anything, but their expressions spoke a hundred words. They were at a loss too as this was not a condition that they knew about at all.


    "Little Shrubby! To the offering all as fast as possible!" Lin Mu said, his voice containing anxiety.


    "YES!" Little Shrubby said with a roar.


    He had gotten close to Lady Kang as well, having fought together and didn''t wish anything to happen to her. Plus, he had also seen how she had stepped in to protect his master, thus he would even go as far as to use the Seven Beasts Burst if it was needed.


    Thankfully, the beast wouldn''t have to resort to it for now as they were rtively near an Offering Hall.


    It was thetest one that they had discovered and it was only an hour away with Little Shrubby''s maximum speed. N?velDrama.Org owns all content.


    ~WHOOSH~


    ~BOOM~


    He sprinted and continued to do so until he broke past the sound barrier, leaving a wake of sonic booms along the way. Craters were also left wherever he stepped, due to the sheer force generated from thebination of his mass and speed.


    The speed was so fast that just the air pressure generated from it left cracks on the ground and a few hills that they passed by.


    Along the way, Lin Mu exined what he had learned from Xukong.


    "A curse!?" Elder Hu was furious after hearing that.


    Min Ju thought was a mix of horrified and surprised.


    ''Lady shouldn''t be affected by most curses… her cultivation technique can keep them at bay.'' She thought having known more about Lady Kang. But once she heard the rest from Lin Mu and how the curse was a mixture of many things, she realized just how severe the condition was.


    ''Even a technique such as the Divine Mystic Constetion Art cannot handle Death Qi.'' She knew.


    Along the way, Monk Hushu maintained his Buddhist skill too, despite the fact that it was quite taxing on him. The monk didn''t care and simply consume more Qi restoration pills to handle it all.


    "We''re here!" Ziran said spotting the Offering Hall.


    "Go right in!" Lin Mu said as he picked up Lady Kang, Monk Hushu right beside him.


    ~WHOOSH~


    At the entrance, Little Shrubby shrank, hurling the group into the Offering hall without a stop.


    Lin Mu and Monk Hushu wasted no momentum and used more of their Qi to change the momentum of their flight and headed straight into the main hall.


    The others followed closely and within seconds they were all present there.


    ~SHUA~


    Afterying down Lady Kang, Lin Mu quickly bought as many Blood Restoration and Blood Regeneration pills that he could.


    With the killing of ck Fin Ind members and the Yin Nascent Soul Maggots earlier in addition to the Chimera nt, Lin Mu had obtained arge number of credits that allowed him to buy over a thousand pills.


    "Take this as well," Crown Princess Shang collected the pills that others had and brought them to Lin Mu bringing the total to roughly around fifteen hundred.


    Combining that with the pills that Lin Mu already had, there were at least twenty two hundred pills now and if they needed more they could be bought.
