Chapter 288 – Expelling Corpse Energy

“Tian Luo, why are you here?”

Jiang Lie’s expression was flustered, this cause Ji Tian Luo’s heart to tighten.

“What happened?”

“The soldiers that were injured by the zombies could not be healed.”

“What? Is Elder Yi not able to heal them?”

Ji Tian Luo was quite startled; the soldiers were unable to be healed by a Rank 3 Wood Healer?

“Not able to. The surface of their bodies was covered in ice that prevented Elder Yi from taking action. You should head there to see for yourself!”

“Okay.”

Ji Tian Luo looked at Yang Tian before she left. She has a weird feeling that Yang Tian has a solution to this problem.

“What happened?” Jiang Lie asked curiously.

Ji Tian Luo ignored Jiang Lie and spoke to Yang Tian:

“Can you accompany me?”

Yang Tian had benefited from Ji Tian Luo and accepted the bag she offered earlier, making it hard for him to reject her request.

“I will go take a look as well then.”

Jiang Lie was unhappy that Ji Tian Luo had sought another man’s help, especially when that person was Yang Tian.

Jiang Lie led the way while Ji Tian Luo and Yang Tian followed behind. Jiang Lie would occasionally look back and watch Ji Tian Luo and Yang Tian, causing Yang Tian to want to laugh.

Jiang Lie brought Ji Tian Luo and Yang Tian to a large open area within C City, this area was empty when Yang Tian passed by this place in the day. But it was being littered with injured soldiers. Signs of being frozen could be seen on the bodies of these soldiers. 

Some had their arms frozen, some were their legs. Basically, any location injured by the Wintry Moon Zombies would be in a frozen state.

Near the soldiers were also much medical staff moving around, most of them were Healer-Type metahumans, but they were helpless when facing the current situation. Some of them were also soldiers and they had developed a strong bond after facing countless dangers together. They were naturally not feeling good when they saw their comrade lying half-dead on the ground.

“Miss Ji, you are finally here.”

A middle-aged man emitted strong life energy revealed a delighted expression and approached Ji Tian Luo the moment he saw her. It was not from happiness due to attraction, but a delight from seeing hope.

“Elder Yi, did you have a solution?”

The middle-aged man was the Rank 3 Wood Healer that Ji Tian Luo mentioned.

“I discovered that the ice contained thick Corpse Energy, I hope to use Miss Ji’s Lightning Energy to expel the Corpse Energy, only after that can I start the healing.”

“How do I proceed?”

Just as Elder Yi was able to explain how to proceed, Yang Tian stood in front of them.

“Lightning can expel the Corpse Energy, but it will also damage their life force, it will be fine if their condition is okay. However, the state of their bodies is not really good, they could not handle the power of the lightning running through them and might die before healing could be provided.”

Elder Yi had also considered this issue, but he was also out of ideas. As lightning was the only method available, they need to quickly start healing them before they turn into corpses. However, when Elder Yi saw Yang Tian blocking him, he knew that Yang Tian had a solution.”

“What better solution do you have?”

“I can use Light Energy to slowly expel the Corpse Energy, just that it will be very demanding on me…”

“C City has quite a large number of Light Attribute spirit herbs, you do not need to worry.” Elder Yi immediately replied.

The Light Attribute was gentler than the overbearing Lightning and was undoubtedly the best choice. Although Yang Tian’s Light Energy was half-formed, it was enough to expel the Corpse Energy.

“Good, please lead the way, Elder Yi.”

Ji Tian Luo was delighted; this would certainly become easier with Yang Tian’s help.

Yang Tian helped because he was also eyeing the large quantities of spirit herbs in C City. The Light Attribute herbs in Sky Halberd Domain have all been consumed by him, a pity they were of not much help in the end.

Yang Tian hopes that this trip would not be a disappointment.

Elder Yi brought Yang Tian to a soldier who was not very badly injured, it looks like Elder Yi wanted to let Yang Tian practice on a less injured one before starting on the serious cases.

Yang Tian placed his hand on the forehead of the injured, Light Energy slowly flowed into the injured person’s body. The Light Attribute restraints Corpse Energy, under Yang Tian’s control, the Corpse Energy within the injured person was slowly expelled out of his body. When the foul Corpse Energy was expelled, the injured person’s expression looked much better compared to before, as well.

The injured person opened his eyes and knew that it was Yang Tian that healed him. He said with much difficulty:

“Thank… you.”

“En.”

The two simple words caused mixed feelings to well up within Yang Tian. When Elder Yi saw that Yang Tian had succeeded, he quickly ordered his subordinates to heal the injured person.

“How is it?” Elder Yi asked in concerned.

“It’s doable, let’s continue!”

“Okay!”

A second injured, third… by the time the fifth was healed. More than half of Yang Tian’s Light Energy was exhausted, forcing him to stop and recover.

“Eh?”

Yang Tian surprisingly discovered that his half-formed Light Energy has developed; although it was only a shred, the improvement was distinct and noticeable.

When Yang Tian was resting, Elder Yi brought a spirit herb emitting strong Light Energy to Yang Tian.

Yang Tian opened his eyes and watch with some disbelief at the spirit herb that Elder Yi brought.

Rank 4 Light Spirit Herb, Light Gathering Grass

Yang Tian was only expecting a Rank 3 Spirit Herb, he did not expect that the other party to hand out a Rank 4 spirit herb immediately.

Yang Tian accepted the Light Gathering Grass from Elder Yi and started refining it. The rich Light Energy in Light Gathering Grass immediately restored Yang Tian’s Light Energy, the excess was refined into Inner Energy and absorbed by Yang Tian.

After absorbing the Light Gathering Grass, Yang Tian discovered that his Light Energy did not become noticeably stronger. During the second round of healing, Yang Tian healed a total of eight injured before he depletes his Light Energy and required rest.

This time, the Light Energy developed by ten percent, the shocking improvement was astounding. Moreover, when Elder Yi saw Yang Tian working so hard, he also developed strong respect towards this young man.

Elder Yi could not help but say:

“To think that there is still someone who values the life of others in the Post-Apocalyptic Era, sigh!”

Elder Yi released a heavy sigh, from his perspective, Yang Tian was working endlessly to save people, this has touched his heart as a doctor.

Another Rank 4 Light Spirit Herb appeared in front of Yang Tian.

Yang Tian did not completely absorb the second herb and stopped after absorbing half when he detected that his Light Energy was back to full capacity. Leaving the remaining half of the herb for the next time.

Yang Tian repeated the cycle of healing and absorbing Light Attribute Spirit Herbs whenever his Light Energy was depleted. Allowing the Light Energy in his body to continuously become stronger.
