Chapter 341 – Removing The Seal (1)
"Master, I have found a solution for your condition now. However, I cannot guarantee the result." In the bamboo hut, Yun Lintian faced Lin Zixuan with a serious expression.
"Can you explain about it?" Standing behind Lin Zixuan, Jiang Yingyue asked. Meanwhile, Murong Xue, Nantian Fengyu, and Lin Xinyao were also looking at Yun Lintian, waiting for his explanation.
"The seal within Master's body is called Life Leeching Seal. It is one of the most powerful seals in the Monarch-rank. If it was planted in the target's body, it would slowly absorb the target's vitality to strengthen itself. When it reached a certain point, the target would die and become a lifeless puppet under the seal's control." Yun Lintian gave them a brief introduction to the Life Leeching Seal.
The expressions of everyone turned unsightly upon hearing this. They didn't expect this seal to be this vicious. It could actually make the target become a puppet.
"To get rid of it, I have to take out all of its roots together at once. This process is difficult, but it's not out of my hands. The real difficult one is how to take it out without making the seal's owner notice it." Yun Lintian explained further.
"So I come up with a solution. We will make a dummy of Master up by using her blood and aura. This process might be risky because the Master's body condition is not good…Also, I can't restore Master's vitality even if we managed to take the seal out in the end. Master's lifespan would still be the same as of now."
Everyone looked at each other and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Let's do it." Lin Zixuan suddenly said. Before this, she had almost given up on her life because she didn't want to harm people around her. However, upon listening to everyone's persuasion yesterday, she had come to a decision. It was better to die on the battlefield than dying here without doing anything.
"Master…" Nantian Fengyu spoke worriedly. Her childish side was nowhere to be seen at this moment.
"Didn't you want me to do this yesterday? How come you are worrying now?" Lin Zixuan smiled faintly.
Nantian Fengyu bit her lips, lowering her head without a word as if she was about to cry.
"Silly girl. You have to trust in your junior brother. He will definitely save our Master." Murong Xue said softly while hugging Nantian Fengyu's shoulders.
The light in Jiang Yingyue's eyes stirred slightly, but she didn't say anything in the end. No one knew what she was thinking right now.
"I think we should ask Palace Master Han to come here. At least, she would be able to do anything if there's a mishap." Yun Lintian suggested.
"I'll contact Master now." Lin Xinyao took out a transmission jade and contacted Han Bingling directly.
While waiting for Han Bingling, Yun Lintian looked at Lin Zixuan and asked. "Master, you really don't want to tell me about the enemy? Don't you think it's better for me to know about it so that I can prepare a countermeasure?"
Lin Zixuan was silent for a brief moment and said. "We will talk about it after you've taken care of the seal."
Yun Lintian nodded and started to prepare a dummy target. He took out a human-like wooden totem he had prepared beforehand and inscribed a soul and blood-holding runes on it.
Woosh!
All of a sudden, Han Bingling appeared in the room, and she straightly asked. "Have you decided, Sister?"
Lin Zixuan smiled faintly. "It's time to change."
Han Bingling stared at Lin Zixuan for a long time before turning to Yun Lintian and saying with a rare serious tone. "You must save her."
Yun Lintian nodded his head. "I'll try my best."
Afterward, Yun Lintian told Lin Zixuan to lie on the bed, and he moved to her side, putting the wooden dummy nearby her body.
Meanwhile, Han Bingling erected an enormously powerful isolation barrier to cover the entire Moonlight Peak as if they were about to face a strong enemy.
Yun Lintian sat on a stool beside the bed and said. "Please allow me to first check your pulse, Master. Please be at ease and relax your body."
Following that, Yun Lintian gently closed his eyes and grabbed Lin Zixuan's wrinkled wrist while releasing his profound energy. Instantly, a warm and gentle profound energy flowed into her channels and moved toward every corner of her body.
In just a short few dozens of breaths, Yun Lintian opened his eyes and retracted his hand as he said. "Master, I will draw a few drops of your blood essence out, as well as a portion of your aura. I hope Master can endure the pain for a moment."
"Go ahead. Don't worry about me much." Lin Zixuan said calmly as if her life and death didn't matter to her.
Yun Lintian did not speak any further and pointed his index finger that was covered with sharp profound energy at Lin Zixuan's navel area. His finger immediately sunk into her navel with a gentle push, and a few droplets of shining red-colored blood slowly emerged from the wound.
Yun Lintian swiftly retracted his finger and used his profound energy to draw the droplets of blood into the wooden dummy on the side. At the same time, he activated the runes on the wooden dummy, and Lin Zixuan's blood essence immediately flowed within it in the same way as it flowed in the human body.
Following that, Yun Lintian used a silver needle to pierce into Lin Zixuan's soul gate between her brows and drew a tiny portion of her soul out before putting it into the wooden dummy.
Closing the wound and retrieving the silver needle on Lin Zixuan's body, Yun Lintian let out a long breath and said. "The initial step is done. Now, I will take the seal out. Master, please don't resist during the process. Otherwise, the seal will act up, and the consequence will be very severe."
"Go." Lin Zixuan replied.
Yun Lintian took a few deep breaths to calm himself down for a moment. Suddenly, his eyes shone with golden light, and his hands started to move…
