Chapter 2392 Selfless Sacrifice

Chapter 2392 Selfless Sacrifice

The consumption of the Bloodline Essence Crystals was not exactly a calm process and it was also taxing Lin Mu's body.
Normally speaking, any average cultivator would have already died several times over in this. They would have either died to the spirits of the bloodlines, or just from the sheer surge of vitality that came from the Bloodline Essence Crystals.
Lin Mu was in quite a bit of pain but was enduring through it all. His body cultivation was holding him together, and allowing him to contain and process all the vitality. Even if he had the help of his stomach with the Nameless Technique of the Lost Immortal, it was only till the point of extraction.
The rest was being done by Lin Mu's entire body.
~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~
And at the same time, Lin Mu was also dividing his attention to clear out the curse from Lady Kang's body.
He had progressed quite a lot and was now done with her entire left leg too.
'About forty percent…' Lin Mu estimated after checking with his Immortal Sense. ~tap~
"Huh?" But as his other hand was trying to pick up more Bloodline Essence Crystals, he realized that the box was now empty. "Dammit… I need more Bloodline Essence Crystals!" he growled.
"Here," in response, Ziran moved. "These are all I have with me right now." He said giving Lin Mu three Bloodline Essence Crystals.
"I also got some, wait!" Crown Princess Shang said and gave Lin Mu five of them too.
"I got a bunch." Crown Prince Feng Shun also joined in and took out several boxes, each of which contained a single Bloodline Essence Crystals for a total of twenty one crystals!
One look at them was enough for Lin Mu to tell that they were all valuable Bloodline Essence Crystals and had either been obtained by Crown Prince Feng Shun in his missions or were part of his wealth from the Imperial Treasury.
"I'll buy more of them. You just keep on taking care of Lady Kang." Elder Hu said staunchly as he used all of his credits to buy every Bloodline Essence Crystals he could.
In total, he managed to buy about thirty of them before he was out of credits.
"I'll buy them too!" Min Ju said and used over three hundred thousand credits to buy another forty Bloodline Essence Crystals.
They weren't necessarily as strong, but their numbers would still help Lin Mu replenish his vitality.
"I'll take them." Lin Mu said shortly before taking them all.
He grabbed a handful of them and ate them all at once.
~Rumble~
As soon as he did though, his heart sped up and beat rapidly. Lin Mu's entire body trembled as a great pressure descended upon him.
~HUALA~
Inside his Dantian, a dense red mist appeared and filled the sky above the Qi ocean. ~ROAR~
~HOWL~
~ROAR~
~HOWL~
~CHIRP~
~SCREECH~
Tens of different bloodline figures manifested from the red mist, all furious at Lin Mu's actions.
~ROAR~
~MOO~
But in response, two domineering figures appeared. These were none other than the Great Slumber Bear and the Tyrant Bull!
Within moments, a gnarly battle erupted between the bloodline figures with Lin Mu's Dantian as the battlefield.
"AHHHHHHH!" Lin Mu couldn't help but cry out in pain as the fight happened within him
Still, he didn't lose his focus and continued to inject blood into Lady Kang's body and purged the curse from her. With the destruction of every bloodline figure, the vitality within Lin Mu's body spiked and overflowed.
A red aura was now constantly surrounding him and was getting richer by the minute. After a few minutes, when the battle within Lin Mu's Dantian settled, he grabbed another handful of Bloodline Essence Crystals.
~CRUNCH~
Swallowing them, he started the entire process all over again, as waves upon waves of pain racked him.
"This is bad…" Crown Princess Shang said, seeing Lin Mu's state. "He'll hurt himself if he continues doing this."
"Consuming these many Bloodline Essence Crystals has never been done before… Daoist Lin Mu might greatly harm his body if he keeps this up." Daoist Chu said, his expression tense.
"Should we stop him?" Qiao De asked.
"Amithabha, Daoist Lin Mu, is selflessly sacrificing his body to help Lady Kang. We cannot let his effort go to vain," Monk Hushu said, shaking his head. "Besides, I do not think he will allow us to stop him anyway. His resolve is firm." "He's correct, we cannot afford to disturb him right now," Crown Prince Feng Shun stated.
"It doesn't matter if Daoist Lin Mu injures himself or cripples his cultivation as long as Lady Kang is saved." Elder Hu stated, much to everyone's shock. "As long as she is safe, the Kang clan will ensure that Daoist Lin Mu will never have to worry about his cultivation again.
If he's injured, we'll call the best healers from the entire realm! The best pills and alchemists! If there is something that can help him, the Kang clan will get it!" He said without hesitation.
"Yes! As long as the Lady survives, this life debt will be paid several fold!" Min Ju said with tears in her eyes.
Lin Mu didn't hear any of their words though, as he didn't have the luxury of dividing his attention anymore. More time passed as he finally managed to cleanse about sixty percent of Lady Kang's body! All her limbs and a part of her lower body had now been cleansed, leaving only her chest and head left.
But it was at this time that Lin Mu ran out of Bloodline Essence Crystals again.
"I need more! MORE!" Lin Mu yelled. "There is nothing more to buy on the list." Qiao De said, seeing that all the affordable Bloodline Essence Crystals had been bought by them. "No, there are still some." Ziran said, looking higher up. "There's the guardian beast bloodlines." "But those…" "I'll take it!" Lin Mu said as he used the last of his credits to buy the Azure Dragon Bloodline!
