Chapter 589 - 585: Insect Clan
The moment the green light descended, the elders were all taken aback.
Unlike the heat or coolness felt when taking an elixir, the Wood Element Ability brought an indescribable warmth, like the scorching sun in the windy and snowy winter, warming the body and soul.
This warmth seemed to slowly seep into the body through every limb and bone.
A peculiar warm current surged through the previously severed meridian of the Third Elder, alleviating the excruciating pain. He could clearly feel this warm Power gradually repairing the damaged meridian.
Using his Divine Sense, he observed that the fractured meridian was being repaired by the green light, healing at a visibly rapid rate.
The Fourth Elder, whose internal injuries were severe, had previously felt sharp pain with each breath; now, however, his breathing had become a bit more relaxed.
He could feel a warm current circulating within his chest cavity, slowly reviving his damaged internal organs.
He instinctively activated his Cultivation Technique and found that most of the obstructions hindering the flow of Spiritual Energy had dissipated, and his internal injuries were gradually healing.
The lustrous green light grew denser, illuminating the entire Council Hall in a bright glow, as if enveloped in the verdant light of a vibrant spring day. Su Muyao remained calm, and though such a large-scale group healing was extremely taxing on one’s mental energy and strength,
for her, it was not a difficult task.
Currently, she possessed Level 29 Superpower, enabling her to perform group healing effortlessly.
Besides, there were only a dozen elders present, a relatively small number.
The aura around her remained stable, and the Wood Element Ability continued to flow steadily from her hands without any interruption.
The elders sensed their injuries healing rapidly, unable to maintain their composure, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
Though they knew Su Muyao was formidable, only by personally experiencing the effects of her Healing Ability did they realize its true power.
Having lived for hundreds of years, they had encountered many talented individuals and many witch doctors.
They knew that even the best witch doctors, adept in healing, usually dealt with minor individual wounds or required long-term recuperation. They had never seen anyone who could single-handedly heal so many powerful and heavily injured beastmen at once with such immediate results.
It is known that the higher the superpower level, the more effort it takes for a witch doctor to heal injuries.
But Su Muyao healed them swiftly, on the spot.
The Great Elder and the Second Elder were extraordinarily powerful and rarely ventured outside, usually staying in Qingqiu Mountain Fox Clan to ensure the tribe’s safety.
Thus, they had no old injuries, but even without old injuries, there were some constraints or minor issues in their bodies.
With Su Muyao’s Healing Ability passing over them, they immediately felt better.
The Great Elder and the Second Elder felt as if their bodies had suddenly become light and clear, almost as if they had become much younger.
They even vaguely sensed that they were about to break through their realm.
It was almost unbelievable.
This level of healing intensity and scope far surpassed their understanding of Wood Element Ability, it was nothing short of miraculous.
After some time, Su Muyao withdrew her Power, and the green light around her gradually dissipated.
The Council Hall was still filled with the fresh scent of grass and trees.
After operating their Superpower Technique, the Great Elder, the Second Elder, and a few slightly injured elders advanced a level or two on the spot.
The other heavily injured elders, with internal and external wounds healed, felt their bodies light and full of vitality, and even sensed a slight improvement in their superpower strength.
When everyone reopened their eyes, they exchanged glances, understanding each other’s thoughts from the looks in their eyes.
It was clear they had all benefited greatly.
They all cupped their hands to express their gratitude to Su Muyao.
The Great Elder sincerely said, "Miss Su, thank you. The injuries of the Third and Fourth Elders were severe, and even the witch doctors couldn’t help. Without your Wood Element Ability, we wouldn’t dare to imagine how the injuries could heal so quickly. Your Healing Ability is truly divine! Today you’ve opened my eyes!" The other elders nodded in agreement, looking at Su Muyao with even more reverence and gratitude.
Su Muyao gave a gentle smile and said, "Elders, you’re too kind. I merely did what little I could." Her tone was calm, as if the group healing just now was nothing more than a trivial task.
"Moreover, you are Linye’s people, who have supported and cared for him before, and now also look after Da Bao. I should naturally do something for the tribe."
"But from what I observe, Third Elder, your injuries don’t seem ordinary; they appear to be from a special sharp weapon, especially you, Third Elder, it seems something directly severed one of your meridians, preventing your full strength from being realized."
The Third Elder sighed and explained, "Two months ago, we received news that some of our clan members outside had been killed by the Spider Gang, many fox clan beastmen fell at their hands."
"The Fourteenth Elder led people to investigate this matter, but they were all killed. We realized this was serious and had to personally intervene."
"Only later did we discover that not only were there Spider Beastmen from the Spider Gang wantonly harming beastmen, but some Insect Clan Beastmen were secretly assisting."
"The methods of these Insect Clan Beastmen were numerous and unpredictable; we were unfamiliar with their techniques and fell into their trap, almost getting killed as well. Fortunately, we Fox Clan have some life-saving methods, and we fought back with grave injuries to return to the Fox Clan."
"But these injuries were hard to treat."
The Fourth Elder also lamented, "To truly face the Insect Clan Beastmen is to understand the strength of their methods."
"Some of them appear weaker than us, but they can use secret techniques to devour other’s Power, instantly boosting their combat potential."
"They also have powerful Attack Magic Artifacts, in large numbers, cooperating in battle."
"If not for this, we wouldn’t have been so severely injured."
Hearing these words, Su Muyao’s face changed, "Have the Insect Clan Beastmen come out from the Nine Nether Forbidden Land too?"
The Fourth Elder focused and said, "We are certain the ones we saw were Insect Clan Beastmen, not just Spider Beastmen but from other tribes as well, especially the Bee Clan Beastmen, who are best at attacking. If stung by their poison, one’s movements will slow, and some might even die on the spot."
Having witnessed their methods, the Fourth Elder understood why the great Witches of old deemed it necessary to imprison them in the Nine Nether Forbidden Land.
The Great Elder’s expression was somewhat helpless, "We previously only had experience dealing with other tribes, but none against the Insect Clan."
"The tribe also lacks information on combating the Insect Clan, so we knew nothing of their methods. During battle, without experience, we narrowly escaped death at their hands."
The Seventh Elder said, "Yet they seem to have knowledge of the abilities we can wield."
The Great Elder added, "When they were first sealed ten thousand years ago, they must have left a lot of data for future Insect Clan Beastmen to study."
"Those Forbidden Secret Techniques, they seem to have not forgotten either."
"If they come out again, there might not be enough great powers among the Witches to seal them once more."
In the Great Elder’s view, there are no longer Witch Clan Beastmen now.
The current witch doctors are not Witch Clan Beastmen, merely learners of Witch Clan medicine, hence the general term witch doctor.
