Sword Emperor

Although the people who had been imprisoned in the Life Imprisonment Cave and the Heaven's Cage had been freed, the faces of the people on the scene were still gloomy.    

After all, every single one of the three thousand people that had been saved had suffered unimaginable injuries and inhuman torture.    

Even though they had been rescued now, they were unable to join the battle for a short period of time. It was truly a headache.    

After a long silence, Chi You started to speak slowly.    

"Now that all of you have been severely injured, there is nothing we can do for now. What we can do now is to see how the last group of people are doing."    

The moment these words were spoken, everyone present slowly nodded their heads.    

Even though they really wanted to help these clansmen recover, it was difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.    

Without all kinds of precious herbal medicines, it was impossible to treat the injuries on the bodies of these clansmen with just their own strength.    

While everyone was anxiously waiting, in the next two days, all the experts of the Nine Li Clan who had been sent out earlier had gradually returned.    

However, the atmosphere on the island didn't ease up at all. In fact, it became more and more depressing.    

On this day, when Sun Bing was in seclusion, Chi Yan suddenly came to his door.    

"Brother Sun Bing, my family has something important to discuss with you."    

Hearing those words, a hint of surprise appeared between Sun Bing's brows, and he then immediately said,    

"Since this is a matter of your Nine Li Clan, as an outsider, it wouldn't be good for me to get involved, right?"    

"Hahahaha, Brother Sun Bing is being too serious."    

With regards to this, Chi Yan burst into laughter, then immediately explained,    

"You are the most important ally of our clan. If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't be in such a situation today.    

Whoever dares to say that you are an outsider, then he is definitely not from our Nine Li Clan. "    

Hearing that, Sun Bing and Chi Yan looked at each other and burst into laughter at the same time.    

Following that, Sun Bing did not delay any further and immediately followed Chi Yan to the Ancestral Wu Hall.    

He saw that Chi You, Fei Lian, and even Mie Meng, the higher-ups of Jiuli, had already gathered here.    

After seeing Sun Bing, everyone could not help but smile and nod at him.    

Seeing that Sun Bing had entered the Ancestral Shaman Hall, Chi Yan immediately closed the door, causing the atmosphere in the entire Ancestral Shaman Hall to change.    

Chi You's face was filled with seriousness as he slowly opened his mouth:    

"None of you are outsiders. Although we have achieved great success in this mission, the Jiuli Clan's situation hasn't been improved at all.    

We sent five divisions to save our people, but only two of them succeeded.    

The other three legions didn't find the prison where our people were imprisoned.    

Apart from that, there were twenty-six other squads that went to search for the treasury left behind by our people.    

Unfortunately, only ten teams managed to find the treasures. The rest can only return empty-handed. "    

It was a simple sentence, but it made the faces of all the people present turn ugly.    

After all, no matter how hidden the Nine Li Clan's treasury was, the Ten Thousand Clans still controlled Buzhou Mountain for ten billion years.    

There were too many accidents that could happen in such a long time.    

It was completely normal for quite a number of the treasure vaults to be discovered.    

However, although they knew it was normal, they couldn't accept it.    

However, Mie Meng's reaction was quite fast. The moment he heard this, he spoke:    

"Then, are the resources brought back by these ten groups enough for the clansmen to recover from their injuries?"    

As soon as those words were said, Chi You's face was filled with a troubled expression. He was silent for a long time before he let out a sigh.    

"Most of the people in the Sky-Binding Prison are either injured or wounded.    

Through the resources brought back by those people, they should be able to recover 50% in a few years.    

If they don't care about the loss, they can even recover eighty percent of their injuries.    

However, the Blood Soul Ganoderma's roots were all over the bodies of the clansmen in the Prison of Life, so it wouldn't be easy to recover.    

Even if we do everything we can, at most twenty percent of the members will barely be able to recover.    

As for joining the battle, that's just a dream."    

When they heard the news, they all sighed at the same time.    

However, at this moment, Sun Bing, who had been silent all along, spoke up:    

"Is the aftereffects of the Blood Soul Ganoderma really that terrifying? Could it be that all kinds of divine medicines, and even the Innate Spiritual Roots, are unable to treat such injuries?"    

Hearing this, all the cultivators of the Jiuli Tribe present had bitter smiles on their faces. Finally, Fei Lian slowly explained:    

"Actually, the aftereffects of the Blood Soul Ganoderma is the drying up of the flesh, the dissipation of vitality, and the shriveling of the soul.    

Only the damage on the spiritual soul was difficult to deal with. As for the flesh and life force, they were nothing to our clan.    

As long as he consumed some herbal medicine and used the power of the earth vein to temper his body, it wouldn't take long for him to recover.    

But the key problem was the root left behind by the Blood Soul Ganoderma.    

Once the Blood Soul Ganoderma was planted in one's body, countless roots would be born and slowly take root in every corner of the body.    

It would be fine if he found out about it earlier, but it wouldn't be hard to cure him.    

However, ten billion years had passed. The roots in the bodies of the clansmen must have reached an unimaginable amount.    

There must be an endless amount of roots all over their bodies, in every single Jing and Mai.    

The life force of these rootlets was extremely vigorous, and could not be removed at all.    

As long as the roots were still in his body, they would continuously absorb his flesh, blood, life force, and even souls.    

No matter what kind of herbal medicine is used, there is nothing we can do. This is the most important part of the problem."    

With regards to this matter, even Sun Bing could not help but furrow his brows tightly.    

Through these words, he could completely see how difficult it was to deal with the Blood Soul Ganoderma.    

However, very quickly, he regained his senses and asked with a puzzled expression,    

"This Bloodsoul Ganoderma is so difficult to deal with. Could it be that there's no way to deal with it?"    

Chi You, Fei Lian, and the others looked at each other and felt helpless.    

"Actually, this Blood Soul Ganoderma is not that difficult to deal with. You sound quite terrifying, but if the Great Monarch or the Master of the Era has the ability to resist...    

Then the moment the root entered his body, it could be shattered. Even if it had been eroded for hundreds or thousands of years, it would only take a few days of closed door cultivation to get rid of it.    

As for why it was so difficult to deal with now, it was because it had grown for tens of billions of years without any obstruction.    

Even a pig can become a spirit after living for such a long time, let alone an extremely terrifying divine medicine. "    

At the end, everyone sighed at the same time.
