Chapter 263 Injury to the Sea of Consciousness
Reading Settings
"Okay, I'll go right away!" Hongyu turned and ran, moving extremely fast, clearly very anxious.
Leng Boyun carried Qing Xuanzi into the room and gently placed him on the bed. Yao Haiting stood by, her eyes filled with worry.
"Xiao Xuanzi, he should be alright, right?" Yao Haiting looked at her husband, hoping for a positive answer. Leng Boyun sat on the edge of the bed, holding Qing Xuanzi's hand and feeling his pulse.
Feeling that his pulse was still strong, I felt a little more at ease.
He nodded and said, "He'll be fine, Haiting. You go and rest for a bit. I'll take care of things here."
"I'm not tired. I'll wait here for a while and see what the healer says when he arrives." Yao Haiting shook her head. She couldn't focus on recovering until she was sure that Xiao Xuanzi was alright.
Leng Boyun knew she was worried, so she stopped trying to persuade her and simply nodded slightly.
Time passed by, and the room was so quiet that only Qing Xuanzi's faint breathing could be heard.
Remembering Qing Xuanzi's injuries, Leng Boyun asked, "How could his sea of consciousness be so severely damaged?"
Yao Haiting shook her head: "I'm not very clear, but it must be because he used some kind of technique that was extremely taxing on his spiritual energy, which caused the injury to his sea of consciousness."
Leng Boyun frowned: "I wonder what kind of technique could have injured his sea of consciousness so badly?"
Yao Haiting didn't know what kind of magic it was either, and shook her head, saying, "I don't know either, but the situation was critical at the time. His magic was very powerful, and his skills killed several demon spirits at the Celestial Master level in succession."
Leng Boyun was quite surprised. In the past, demonic spirits at the Celestial Master level or above could only be killed by Xuan cultivators at the Celestial Master level or by forming an array to surround and kill them.
Unexpectedly, Qing Xuanzi was only at the Earth Master level, yet his magic was able to kill a demon spirit at the Celestial Master level.
Lost in thought, Hongyu heard hurried footsteps outside the door and rushed in, panting, followed by a healer dressed in white.
"Uncle Leng, Senior Sister Yao, Senior Su He from the Alliance Headquarters has arrived," Hong Yu said, his voice tinged with weariness.
"I didn't expect to trouble Senior Su He. Please come in." Leng Boyun quickly stood up and welcomed Su He in.
Su He is an elderly man with white hair and beard, and also a medical cultivator in the alliance who is extremely proficient in treating injuries to the sea of consciousness.
He entered the room, and upon seeing Qing Xuanzi's condition, he immediately went forward and began to take his pulse.
"Senior Su, how is Xiao Xuanzi's injury?" Yao Haiting asked anxiously.
Su He pondered for a moment and said, "His sea of consciousness is indeed severely damaged, but his foundation is still intact and his origin has not been harmed. As long as he takes good care of himself, he should be able to recover."
"That's good, that's good." Leng Boyun breathed a sigh of relief, feeling much more at ease.
“However, his recovery will take time,” Su He continued. “I will first give him a calming pill to stabilize his consciousness.”
"Next, he will need to slowly and gradually recover. Of course, if there are pills to help him recover his consciousness, it can help him recover faster."
"Remember, do not use your divine sense again until your sea of consciousness has fully recovered!"
If you can't use your divine sense, you can't cultivate, and you can't participate in battles anymore.
"Thank you very much, Senior Su." Leng Boyun clasped his hands in a gesture of respect and expressed his gratitude.
Su He smiled and shook his head: "No need to be so polite. This young friend needs to rest and recuperate now, so there's nothing I can do for you here. I'll head back now."
Leng Boyun stood up, saw him out, and handed him the medical fee.
When he returned, Yao Haiting was still in the room. He said, "Go and recover first. I'll take care of things here."
This time, Yao Haiting did not refuse and went with Hongyu to find an empty room to restore.
Leng Boyun stayed by Qing Xuanzi's side, taking care of his daily life.
Meanwhile, the situation of the people on the other side of the Demon-Sealing Array gradually stabilized.
Qin Daozhi and Wei Zhenglei, along with their disciples, stayed until Leng Qianjue and the other disciples had recovered sufficiently before leaving with their group.
Seeing that his disciples' spiritual power had not fully recovered, but their movements were no longer a problem, Leng Qianjue led the group of disciples back to their camp to rest.
Upon returning to their camp, everyone immediately went to find out about Qing Xuanzi's situation.
When they heard Leng Boyun say that Qing Xuanzi's sea of consciousness needed a long period of rest and that he could not use his divine sense for the time being, everyone knew how serious his injuries were, and they all felt extremely guilty.
Everyone was thinking that they still had some strength left and shouldn't have backed down.
Leng Qianjue knew what they were thinking and comforted them, "Don't overthink it. If Boyun hadn't arrived in time, we might have all perished there, so there's no need to blame yourselves."
Leng Boyun sighed, "We were able to pull through this time thanks to everyone's unity and cooperation. If any one link had been missing, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Leng Qianjue agreed, saying that these disciples were all outstanding. He nodded and said, "In order to protect the Demon Sealing Array, they did not hesitate to exhaust their spiritual power and even risk their lives."
"This incident has also served as a wake-up call for us. The stability of the Demon Sealing Array is not as good as before, and we must find a solution as soon as possible."
Everyone nodded, knowing that this crisis was neither the beginning nor the end, and that there was still a long road ahead.
Leng Qianjue waved to everyone: "You all go and rest. Xiao Xuanzi definitely can't go to the battlefield anymore. We'll have to rely on you from now on. You all need to recover your spiritual power and prepare to meet the challenges ahead."
"Yes, Grandmaster!" The disciples nodded in unison, their expressions showing no sign of backing down, but rather filled with unwavering fighting spirit.
Leng Qianjue looked at these young figures, a hint of relief flashing in her eyes.
Having endured this ordeal, these disciples have become even more resilient, and they will be the future pillars of the Xuanqing Sect.
After they left, Leng Qianjue said to Leng Boyun, "Boyun, you can't stay here any longer. Take Xiao Xuanzi back to the sect to recuperate."
Leng Boyun looked at Leng Qianjue and tentatively said, "Father, why don't you go back? I'll take over your job of repairing the formation."
Leng Qianjue scolded, "Nonsense! Do you think we can just replace people like that?"
"Besides, you're not as strong as me. If you encountered a problem like today, you wouldn't even be able to hold out until the rescue. How could you possibly take my place?"
Leng Boyun wanted to argue, but Leng Qianjue waved his hand impatiently: "Alright, let's not talk about that. Tell me how you suddenly got here?"
He didn't believe his son's story about appearing in his dream; he knew his son well enough.
This time, Leng Boyun did not hide the fact that it was Rong Jiaojiao's dream, and told her the whole story in detail.
Leng Qianjue pondered, "You did a good job. Jiaojiao is still young. Don't let unnecessary attention fall on her."
