Chapter 2049: Chapter 2049: Material Extracted! Hurry and Save Him! Blessing in Disguise?
"Jinyu!"
Seeing Mu Jinyu enduring such extreme pain, Wang Qingxue, who also couldn’t escape and was thrown back onto the deck, felt a stabbing pain in her heart.
This pain, however, had nothing to do with romance.
It was more a feeling of sympathy among fellow sufferers.
If Mu Jinyu were to die at the hands of this bone apparition, could she survive alone?
Moreover, throughout this journey, Mu Jinyu had protected her many times. Now with Mu Jinyu about to die in front of her eyes, how could she not feel sad and agonized!
"Urgh!!"
Mu Jinyu was in excruciating pain all over, feeling as if his very marrow was being drawn out by the skeletal hand; his face twisted, body convulsing violently, and let out a weak, anguished shout!
"Ah!!"
He then realized there was indeed some mysterious force within him being extracted by the skeleton, but amidst this inhumane agony, his consciousness blurred, leaving him unable to care about what was being taken!
"Wow-wow-wow!!"
As the mysterious force continued to be drawn away, Mu Jinyu’s consciousness completely vanished, no longer capable of producing cries, and he slumped softly onto the bone apparition’s hand.
The bone apparition’s hand showed no mercy, continuing to extract some substance from Mu Jinyu’s body!
After a long while.
The substance was finally emptied by the bone apparition. Then, the apparition slowly retracted its hand, releasing its grip from Mu Jinyu’s cervical vertebra, letting him fall freely to the ground, his blood staining the decaying deck.
"Hiss hiss..."
Absorbing the mysterious substance from Mu Jinyu’s body, the bone apparition became increasingly translucent, releasing an unpredictable might.
Making Wang Qingxue on the side feel an overwhelming pressure, unable to directly face it.
"Whiz!!"
Then, a flash of light emanated from the skeleton, and it vanished from the Underworld Ghost Ship.
Wang Qingxue let out a sigh of relief, feeling a bit puzzled, unsure where the skeleton went.
She turned to look around, then discovered on the turbulent sea, the skeleton seemed to walk upon the waves, quickly disappearing from her sight.
"Left?"
Wang Qingxue couldn’t help but be stunned, not expecting the skeleton to just leave.
So, does that mean... she can survive?
Then Wang Qingxue’s face changed again, unsure about Mu Jinyu’s condition.
Could he be dead?
Thinking this, Wang Qingxue’s heart was in turmoil; she didn’t wish for Mu Jinyu to die here, leaving her alone on this terrifying Underworld Ghost Ship, what could she do then?
She hurriedly looked toward Mu Jinyu lying softly on the ground, finding that although he was badly injured, blood staining the deck, his breath was weak, but there was breath still left in him.
He’s still alive!
"Still alive?"
"As long as he’s alive, it’s good!"
Seeing this, Wang Qingxue’s eyes brightened, hurriedly scrambling up from the ground, crawling toward Mu Jinyu.
Then, she carefully lifted Mu Jinyu from the ground, resting his neck on her thighs.
Next, Wang Qingxue took out high-quality Healing Pills from the Qiankun Ring, feeding them to Mu Jinyu all at once.
In a short while, after Mu Jinyu took the pills, his injuries completely healed, but his consciousness hadn’t fully returned.
"Jinyu, how are you? Don’t die..."
Seeing Mu Jinyu showing no signs of waking up, a wave of concern filled Wang Qingxue’s mind, fearing that although Mu Jinyu’s body was fine, his Soul might have issues.
Thinking a bit, hesitating a brief moment, she gritted her teeth, deciding to invade Mu Jinyu’s Sea of Consciousness to see if something had gone wrong with his Soul.
This was an extremely risky decision.
Given that Mu Jinyu’s Cultivation was far superior to her own.
If Mu Jinyu’s Soul was intact, her reckless invasion into his Sea of Consciousness was likely to result in her Soul being swallowed.
But she worried about Mu Jinyu’s situation and had some confidence in a Magic Treasure she possessed, so she wanted to try.
This was the reason why, when the Underworld Ghost Ship appeared just now, all other passengers died, only she and Mu Jinyu survived.
Mu Jinyu survived because he had the Mystical Little Tree and Earth Emperor’s Tome for protection.
And Wang Qingxue also possessed some Magic Treasure, keeping her unharmed.
Then, Wang Qingxue risked her life, her Soul cautiously attempting to probe into Mu Jinyu’s Sea of Consciousness.
Actually, under normal circumstances, Mu Jinyu being unconscious could indeed suggest a problem with his Soul.
Ordinarily, people wouldn’t rush to check his Soul for issues.
They would instead observe for a few days.
Wang Qingxue rushed because the environment didn’t allow for slow observation here.
Considering they were in the Underworld Ghost Sea, having just suffered an attack from bone apparition aboard the Underworld Ghost Ship, should something else emerge.
Or if the Ghost Ship collapses following the bone apparition’s departure, wouldn’t she die?
Right now, her mind was unstable, completely indecisive, so she couldn’t wait any longer, hoping Mu Jinyu would awaken soon, to see how things should proceed.
"Bang!"
While preparing herself for injury, Wang Qingxue’s Soul was charging into Mu Jinyu’s Sea of Consciousness when she felt as if she had slammed into a wall.
Unable to enter Mu Jinyu’s Sea of Consciousness.
"Hmm?"
Upon this change, Wang Qingxue’s brows furrowed but soon relaxed, revealing a smile.
This change likely indicated there was also a special Magic Treasure protecting Mu Jinyu’s Soul inside his Sea of Consciousness.
Meaning his Soul was probably fine.
If his Soul were compromised, the Soul-protecting Magic Treasure couldn’t possibly remain intact.
It should be completely broken!
Thus, indicating Mu Jinyu was alright, Wang Qingxue felt relieved.
What Wang Qingxue didn’t know was that Mu Jinyu’s current state was indeed quite special.
He truly was hovering near death.
But fortunately, after the bone apparition left the Underworld Ghost Ship, the power that sealed all Magic Treasures also vanished.
Thus, Ming reappeared, beginning emergency treatment for Mu Jinyu, allowing his injuries to heal so swiftly.
It wasn’t due to the Healing Pills Wang Qingxue gave him, rather Mu Jinyu’s Human Attribute healing himself.
And Wang Qingxue’s attempt to invade Mu Jinyu’s Sea of Consciousness was stopped by Ming.
Ming noticed Wang Qingxue was indeed trying to help Mu Jinyu, attempting to invade his Sea of Consciousness without malice, hence merely stopped her and didn’t harm her.
If Ming hadn’t stopped her, letting her Soul recklessly enter Mu Jinyu’s Sea of Consciousness, her Soul would have been devoured directly by the Mystical Little Tree.
Even with her Mystical Magic Treasure, she couldn’t have avoided this disaster!
"In a way, it’s a blessing in disguise; let’s see if you can endure this calamity!"
After completing the healing for Mu Jinyu, Ming could do nothing else but helplessly sigh in his heart.
