Chapter 167 - Healing Mu En
After all, today was a critical moment for Shrek Academy—there could be no room for carelessness.
On Sea God's Island within Shrek Academy, many powerful figures led by Elder Xuan looked into the distance, as if waiting for something.
Suddenly, a golden light flashed across the sky.
The figures of Jiang Li, Ling Yun, and Lei Yao appeared out of thin air.
Today was the agreed-upon day with Shrek Academy. Upon seeing Jiang Li and the others arrive, a trace of worry still lingered in everyone's eyes.
Although the Star Auction Pavilion had promised to heal Elder Mu, no one could guarantee that he would fully recover under their treatment.
Everything remained uncertain.
However, with Ling Yun—a Limit Douluo possessing the Ultimate Life Attribute—taking action, even if Mu En couldn't be completely healed, at least some of his injuries could likely be alleviated.
"Welcome to Shrek Academy. When will the treatment begin?"
Elder Xuan, upon seeing Jiang Li arrive, couldn't wait to get to the point.
Mu En's body was already at the brink of collapse; even a short delay could lead to irreversible consequences.
Hearing this, Jiang Li smiled and replied, "In that case, we can begin now. Please take us to see Mu En."
At those words, everyone showed a look of joy.
They immediately began leading the way for Jiang Li and his companions.
After passing through multiple layers of defensive barriers, they finally arrived in front of a wooden cabin atop the Golden Tree.
The cabin appeared ordinary, but in reality, every plank was extraordinary, glowing with a gentle light under the sun.
Once inside the cabin, Jiang Li observed—
Mu En was lying on a recliner, his life force rapidly fading.
His skin was shriveled like dead bark, his hair was whitening at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even his breathing had become so faint it was nearly imperceptible.
Jiang Li immediately saw that Mu En truly was at the brink of death. No wonder Shrek Academy was so desperate for their help.
"Thank you for your efforts."
Mu En, seeing the people from the Star Auction Pavilion arrive, forced his eyes open and said weakly.
He knew well just how grave his injuries were.
He had never before seen a powerhouse possessing an Ultimate Life Attribute spirit, nor did he know how much the other party could heal his condition.
Thinking of how the woman's strength was at the level of a Limit Douluo and infused with the Ultimate Life Attribute, perhaps she could truly help treat his injuries.
He tried to lift his hand, but halfway up, it dropped back down feebly. A trace of resignation flashed in his eyes.
"Your injuries are indeed extremely severe—your life essence is rapidly draining. You've reached a critical point. However, for me, this isn't a difficult problem."
Ling Yun stepped forward and lightly moved her right hand.
A stream of green light entered Mu En's body, probing his condition.
Wherever that light passed, Mu En's meridians let out the sound of jade shattering.
Yet when he sensed the green light enter him, Mu En felt no rejection. On the contrary, as it moved through his body, he clearly felt significantly more comfortable.
He couldn't help but admire—this truly was the strength of a Limit Douluo with the Ultimate Life Attribute.
This life force was overwhelming.
His parched lips moved slightly, as if trying to speak, but he was interrupted by a violent coughing fit.
"You all should leave for now. His internal injuries are too severe and will require a lengthy treatment."
After understanding the situation, Ling Yun turned and addressed the others.
In truth, with her current strength, even if Mu En were at death's door, a single soul skill would be enough to heal him.
However, these instructions came directly from the Pavilion Master.
After all, the Star Auction Pavilion had received a great deal of resources from Shrek Academy. If they were to heal Mu En instantly, it wouldn't reflect well on their reputation.
If word spread that the treatment was so simple, yet they had asked for such an abundance of resources, it could lead to backlash.
Elder Xuan and the others hesitated briefly—leaving Mu En alone with the Star Auction Pavilion's expert seemed improper—but quickly set aside their doubts.
They trusted the Star Auction Pavilion wouldn't go to such lengths to harm Shrek Academy.
In the end, Elder Xuan led everyone out of the wooden cabin.
"Thank you,"
Mu En said slowly to Ling Yun.
Jiang Li and Lei Yao also didn't remain in the room, following the others out. The treatment was left entirely to Ling Yun.
After all, Ling Yun's power was considerable.
Having received guidance from the Willow God, Ling Yun's life force had already far surpassed the usual standards of the Ultimate Life Attribute. Healing Mu En wouldn't be difficult.
"Are you ready?"
Once everyone had left, Ling Yun looked solemnly at Mu En.
Behind her, the illusory figure of the Tree of Life shimmered faintly, each of its leaves glowing with emerald brilliance.
"I'm ready. I understand the condition of my injuries. Even if I can't be healed, it's okay."
A peaceful smile appeared on Mu En's face.
His eyes gazed out the window at the starry sky—the academy he had protected all his life, the students he cherished.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that to witness such miraculous power at the end of his life was enough—he had no regrets.
Ling Yun didn't speak further. In the next moment, her expression turned extraordinarily focused.
Buzz!
Suddenly, she released a vibrant green Tree of Life, which floated in the air.
In an instant, countless green light particles surrounded the entire room, transforming the wooden cabin into a kingdom of green. Intense life energy filled every corner.
As Mu En absorbed the life force in the air, his complexion grew slightly more rosy, filling him with renewed hope for the treatment.
Those light particles seeped into his skin, forming a dense network of light within his meridians, as if repairing a shattered peerless treasure.
At this time, Ling Yun deliberately slowed down, gradually infusing life energy into Mu En to draw out the treatment time.
Under the healing of this life force, Mu En felt incredibly comfortable and gradually drifted off to sleep.
His breathing stabilized, and his heartbeat became strong again.
"It's about time."
Seeing that nearly half an hour had passed, Ling Yun knew it was time to finish.
Boom!
Behind her, the illusory Tree of Life erupted in even brighter light. Her eighth hundred-thousand-year soul ring gleamed radiantly.
"Eighth Soul Skill—Life Rebirth!"
The Tree of Life projection behind her released a brilliant pillar of green light that poured straight into Mu En's body.
Mu En was completely engulfed in the green glow.
His body stretched out in the light, his shattered meridians began to reassemble, and his scattered life essence converged like stars returning home, recondensing within him.
"Hm?"
"This power..."
The mighty force woke Mu En. He immediately noticed that his injuries were rapidly healing.
Even his life essence had stopped leaking and was even being replenished.
Such a situation shook Mu En to the core—this Limit Douluo with the Ultimate Life Attribute possessed a truly terrifying healing ability.
He suddenly sat upright, feeling the surging vitality in his body, eyes brimming with tears of excitement.
Moments later, Ling Yun saw that Mu En's injuries had mostly healed. She lightly waved her right hand and withdrew the soul skill.
Looking at Mu En, whose complexion was now rosy and whose body showed no trace of weakness, she said calmly, "It's nothing serious now."
Her voice was calm, as if nothing had happened.
The life force within the wooden cabin gradually faded, as if everything had been just a beautiful dream.
But Mu En knew—from this moment on, his life was beginning a new chapter.
