Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 2363 Old Enmity

"How's it your injuries?" Lin Mu asked the Elder.

"I'll be fine. Just need to expel it." Elder Hu answered. "Let Monk Hushu do it then, it should work." Lin Mu answered as he looked at the bald man at work.

In the group, only Daoist Chu and Elder Hu had managed to get injured by the Withering Dao Energy among which Daoist Chu had the worse injury.

Elder Hu had only gotten it because he had jumped into defend Lady Kang when they were ambushed. The maggots that had attacked them did so without even a single sign of them. Even Lin Mu was unable to sense them and only Little Shrubby did because of his sense of smell.

~SHUA~

Monk Hushu's chanting finally ended, as the foul energy was purified from Daoist Chu's shoulder. "How does it feel?" Monk Hushu asked, his breath a bit uneven.

"A lot better than before." Daoist Chu answered. "Though it definitely corrupted a part of my Qi stores that I'll had to burn away too." He added.

"Likewise." Elder Hu spoke up. "The linger Withering Dao energy is doing the same right now too, so I have to keep on suppressing it with more Qi." He added.

"Sit down, I'll purge it." Monk Hushu asked.

"Thank you." Elder Hu said and did as told.

The group watched as Monk Hushu began chanting again, his body glowing with a faint Buddhist light.

The light covered his palm and was being transferred into Elder Hu's back which had been bit by one of the maggots. Bit by bit, the grey patch was being cleared out and about thirty minutes later, it was completely cleared out.

"Amithabha… this is certainly not easy to purify." Monk Hushu muttered.

"We'll have to be a lot more careful than before. Looks like they're using stealthy methods to attack us." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke. "We'll especially have to be careful about those maggots… they're smaller but faster and sneakier." He added.

"Indeed. We didn't sense them at all." Lady Kang stated.

"I think they're using the ambient Death Qi and other baleful energies to mask their presence here." Lin Mu guessed. "Though they can be smelled by Little Shrubby." He said looking at the beast.
