C2498 Reverse Creation

Tai Ah and Lin Bai were originally not friends. Moreover, from the very beginning, the two of them were enemies that hated each other. However, the more he came into contact with Tai'e, the more he liked the pride in Tai'e's body. It was not the arrogance he had shown earlier, but the unshakeable pride he had developed later on.

It was at that time that Lin Bai and Tai A truly began to view each other as friends and appreciate each other.

He did not dare to imagine how he would face Taia if he died because of that ominous battle. It could be said that if Tai'e was truly unable to escape this calamity, then it would be true. Although he did not kill Bo Ren, but because of him, Bo Ren died.

All of them made Lin Bai extremely guilty. He couldn't even look straight at Tai'e's bloodless face.

"Brother Lin, you don't need to feel sorry for yourself. This is the fate of Tai'e. It's just that his luck isn't too good …" Looking at Lin Bai's apologetic appearance, the jade artifact Elder slowly spoke, his words filled with lament.

Just like what the jade artifact elder had said, every time Tai A advanced, it seemed like he would have to pay an extremely tragic price. Back then, Lin Bai had used his strength to win over people and used a powerful attack to dispel the arrogance on Tai Ah's body, turning it into a towering prideful bone. Unfortunately, this arrogance had only just appeared and his arm had already been cut off, becoming the rarely seen one-armed Sword Cultivator from ancient times.

Fortunately, Tai'e didn't become depressed because of this. He was able to raise his cultivation base with just his arm. His understanding of the way of the sword also showed faint signs of being in the group of leaders of the Sword Pavilion. Due to Tai'e's transformation, the jade artifact Elder had even thought of letting Tai'e take his place more than once. In the future, when he was powerless, he would allow Tai'e to take his place.

Especially in this fierce battle with the Spirit Spring Sect's army, Tai'e had raised his sword, nurtured his entire body with sword energy, and his understanding of the way of the sword had completely surpassed that of the jade artifact elder, becoming the only sword cultivator other than Lin Bai.

This further strengthened the jade artifact elder's belief that after everything had settled down, he would be able to smoothly hand over the power to Tai Ah. However, no one could have imagined that Taia would encounter such a situation. Because of the ominous situation in the mine, his body was withered, his blood essence dried up, and even if he were to survive, it was still a problem.

With Tai'e's current appearance, even if he could wake up, his cultivation would definitely drop greatly. Without hard work, it would be impossible for him to return to his previous cultivation realm. This loss was unbearable for no matter who it was.

Every time he rose in rank, there would always be a great calamity accompanying him. This inevitably caused the jade artifact elder to doubt whether it was all due to a lucky chance, or was it really because Tai A's luck was too bad that it caused all of this.

"Why is there no sign of his wounds healing? Is he not taking any medication?" After looking at Tia for a moment, Lin Bai noticed something strange. He frowned and asked Elder Lou.

He did not understand. Taia's entire body was covered with mottled wounds from such a wound, but there was not a single trace of medicinal powder to be seen. He couldn't help but suspect whether Elder Seng Tan didn't go all out to rescue him.

"Brother Lin, you've misunderstood Fellow Daoist Fan. It's not that he doesn't want to use medicine, but Taia's current condition means that he simply cannot use medicine!" Before Elder Seng Tan could speak, the jade artifact Elder immediately smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Can't use drugs, what's going on? Hearing this, Lin Bai couldn't help but be taken aback. He looked towards Elder Zhu Tan in confusion. As far as he knew, in the Medicine Valley, there were countless medicines to treat wounds. There were even many that had excellent effects, so why couldn't these medicines be used on Tai'e?

"After Tai'e was injured, because the situation was too strange, I didn't dare to take his medicine. But in my opinion, the wounds on his body should have been caused by an external force. Maybe applying some hemostasis medicine wouldn't have caused any major injuries, but I didn't expect that …" Hearing this, Elder Zhu Tan bitterly laughed, his eyes revealing a perplexed look.

As Elder Zhu Tan spoke, the events of that day gradually began to appear before Lin Bai like a painting.

Tai'e had a fierce battle with the ominous thing in the mine. After he climbed out of the cave, he immediately fainted on the spot. Seeing that Tai'e was about to become a man of blood, Elder Zhu Tan and the others did not hesitate and hastily called Tai'e for medical treatment.

After using alcohol to disinfect the wounds on Tai'e's body, although the condition of Tai'e's injuries were unknown and the elders didn't dare to use the antiseptic without caution, they believed that there should be no problem in applying the medicine to stop the bleeding of the muscles.

However, no one could have imagined that after the medicine had been applied to Tai'e, it did not have the slightest effect. Instead, it was taking Tai'e's life like a dose of poison.

The moment the medicine was applied to Tai'e's wounds, it was as if someone had poured a basin of strong acid on them. Those originally somewhat bloody wounds quickly turned black and were constantly festering.

Moreover, the unconscious Tai'e revealed an expression of pain after his wound changed. It was as if he was enduring an unbearably intense pain. This situation was so bizarre that it exceeded Elder Fan's expectations. He even suspected that he had used the wrong medicine, but after identifying the poison, he realized that the medicine he used were all mild tonics.

Even if one were to feed this medicine to someone who was not ill, it would not be a problem. Yet, such an anomaly happened to Tai'e. If he were to continue smearing the medicine, he might not even have to wait for Tai'e'a to die from blood loss. His wounds would rot and worsen his condition to the point where it was impossible to treat.

Elder Zhu Tan decisively removed all of the medicine he had smeared on the wound and cut off the rotten flesh. After doing this, the situation could be considered to have eased up, and Taia no longer showed any signs of pain.

After this matter, Elder Zhu Tan did not dare to easily use any medicine. However, no matter how much he thought about it, he could not think of how to deal with Taia's current situation.

Helpless, the crowd could only let Tai'e's wound to be exposed. But every day, they cleaned it with alcohol to prevent the wound from becoming inflamed, causing the disease to worsen.

However, it was strange. If a normal person had any wounds on their body, even if they were not treated, they would slowly heal and scab as the world went by. However, the wounds on Tai'e's body seemed to have completely lost the ability of the human body to heal itself. No matter how much time passed, there were no signs of healing.

However, as everyone thought, the reason for Taia's current state was probably because of that severed claw. It was definitely because of some strange aura that had entered Taia's body when the severed claw inflicted injuries on him, causing him to turn into his current state. He had lost the unique healing ability of a human body and everything else.

To be able to erase his healing ability, what kind of power was this? Looking at the pale white wounds on Tai'e's body, Lin Bai furrowed his brows. Even though he had experienced many unfathomable things, this method of erasing all the bodily functions was something he had never seen before in his life. In fact, he had the feeling that this method could be considered good fortune, or perhaps even reverse good fortune.

What was Creation? Using one's own strength to evolve everything and deduce something that shouldn't exist. And the force that caused Tai'e's current appearance was to cut off all instincts in the world. Wasn't that the reverse of Creation?

"Senior Zang Tan, this junior was wrong. I shouldn't have questioned you." Upon realizing his mistake, Lin Bai immediately apologized, realizing that he had misunderstood the matter and that he had planted the sandalwood.

"There's no need to be so formal between you and me." Elder Zhu Tan shook his head and chuckled as he heard this. He slowly said, "Regardless of whether it is you, Brother Lin, or the Sword Pavilion and my Medicine Valley, they have all become one. I will not hold anything back."

Just like what Zhu Tan had said, after the annihilation of the Spirit Spring Sect, the Sword Pavilion, Medicine Valley, and Lin Bai had all become prosperous together, losing one entity at a time. They already knew that it was impossible for Lin Bai to remain in seclusion forever. And if he wanted to leave, the two sects would still have the strength they currently possessed.

Tai'e's cultivation increased rapidly, and his talent was extraordinary. The battle prowess he possessed was second only to Lin Bai among all the people present. This meant that as long as Lin Bai left, Taia would have to shoulder the burden of defending the honor of the two sects. In this situation, protecting Tai A's safety was also a duty that the Pill King Valley could not shirk, and there would be no slack at all.

"Master, look here …" At this moment, when she entered the room, Leng Yan, who had been silent all this time, lightly nudged Lin Bai. After which, her eyes were filled with vigilance as she spoke word by word.

The moment Lin Bai heard what Su Ming said, his gaze touched the spot that Leng Zhan Yan was pointing at and his heart trembled. He saw something special around Tai Ah's wound.

This black fur was no different than the black fur on the broken claw that Lin Bai had found in the mines. However, the fur was obviously new, so it wasn't obvious, which was why Lin Bai didn't notice it.

He was covered in black hair, and the ominous feeling in the cave was gone. Could it be that this thing had come to Tai'e's body?!
