Jianchen hovered in the air as he walked out of the divine hall of Mercenary City. He looked at the Tian Yuan Continent that had just been ravaged by the flames of battle. He saw many Sainthood experts fly around in the air as they dealt with the aftermath of the battle. Many of them carried corpses and buried them. Their faces were filled with sorrow or numbness. There had been far too many casualties in the battle this time. Only one percent of the people who had taken part in the battle had survived in the end. Many of them had lost their friends and family in the battle.
Among these people who had died, there were not many whose corpses could be found. Almost all of them were severed limbs, and there were even more people who did not even have a corpse left behind. Their entire bodies had collapsed, turning into countless pieces of flesh and rivers of blood.
The ruins of Mercenary City had become an extremely huge and bottomless chasm. Dense cracks spread out in all directions from the center of the chasm. Four of the cracks were extremely thick, crossing the entire continent and splitting it into four.
Perhaps in the near future, the four huge cracks across the continent would turn into four vast rivers.
Jianchen gently sighed as he hovered in the air as he looked at the devastated Tian Yuan Continent. In the blink of an eye, the continent that he was so familiar with had become like this, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
Afterward, Jianchen expanded the senses of his soul, enveloping the entire continent in a single moment. Although the battle had erupted in the ruins of Mercenary City, not only had the terrifying shockwaves of the battle split the continent into four, but even the region several million kilometers away had been greatly affected. An unprecedented earthquake erupted on the continent, causing many cities to collapse and many mountain ranges to collapse.
However, at this moment, Jianchen's face suddenly changed. He immediately stepped onto the Ziying sword and shot off into the distance as a violet streak of light. The Ziying sword was damaged, covered in cracks. Even the sword spirit had been affected by the failure of the fusion of the two swords, becoming extremely weak. However, the swords were immortal artifacts after all. Even though they were damaged, they could still be used. As long as they did not undergo a great battle, they would not be completely destroyed, but their power would decrease by a lot.
Jianchen crossed several million kilometers with extreme speed on the Ziying sword before arriving on a lone mountain in the end.
The reason why it was a lone mountain was because it was the only mountain within a radius of a thousand kilometers. Aside from that, there was nothing else within the radius of a thousand kilometers. It was just a desolate plain.
On this lonely mountain, there was a woman in white lying on the ground. Her appearance couldn't be considered to be devastatingly beautiful, but she was still quite pretty. She was a beauty of her generation. Her face was pale and her eyes were closed as she lay on the ground, unconscious. In the center of her brows, there was a finger-sized hole with blood flowing out. This face of hers made her look somewhat malevolent and terrifying.
The woman was Caia, who had been captured by an Origin realm expert from the World of Forsaken Saints.
Beside Caia, the Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast had shrunk to the size of a fist. It flew around Caia in an extremely anxious manner as it buzzed as if it was calling out to Caia.
However, at this moment, the Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast seemed to sense something. It immediately swelled up, becoming three meters tall as it stood beside Caia. Its fist-sized eyes were filled with caution, but when it saw that it was Jianchen, the caution in its eyes immediately vanished. It returned to the size of a fist before flying around Jianchen. It buzzed in an extremely anxious manner, as if it was trying to tell Jianchen to save Caia.
Jianchen crouched down before Caia and looked at the bloody hole between her eyebrows. His face immediately became extremely sunken.
"Caia is not dead. Her wounds are very easy to heal. The only problem is that her soul is extremely heavily injured. Only a sliver of her soul remains, so her soul was almost wiped out." Jianchen quickly checked Caia's wounds. He was very stern. Caia's situation was extremely dangerous. She was basically on the brink of death.
Afterwards, Jianchen began to use a Radiant Saint Technique to heal Caia's wounds. Before a Class 9 Radiant Saint Master, even the most severe wounds could be healed in an extremely short amount of time. Aside from the damage to her soul, Caia's wounds were not particularly severe. Under Jianchen's healing, she made a full recovery very quickly. The finger-sized hole between her eyebrows vanished as well, only leaving behind some blood.
The Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast fell silent the moment Jianchen began to heal. It lay to one side quietly as it stared at Jianchen and Caia with its beady eyes. Its eyes were filled with intelligence. Although it was unable to assume a human form, it clearly possessed quite a high level of intelligence.
With a flip of his hand, Jianchen pulled out a piece of Amethyst Spiritual Bamboo from his Space Ring. He extracted its sap and pressed it against Caia's forehead. As soon as the sap came in contact with her forehead, it silently seeped in, turning into a clear presence that began to nourish Caia's soul.
The wounds to Caia's soul could no longer be healed by Radiant Saint Masters, so the Amethyst Spiritual Bamboo was the only heavenly resource that Jianchen possessed that could heal the soul. Moreover, it had reached the Immortal Tier, so it was definitely extraordinary. Jianchen knew very well just how effective it was when it came to healing the soul.
However, Jianchen felt uncertain when he used the sap to heal Caia's soul because Caia's soul was not as simple as just being injured. If it were not for the fact that a sliver of her soul remained, she probably would have been wiped out already.
As expected, not only did Caia not wake up after using the sap, but Jianchen could also sense that the sliver of soul that Caia had left behind showed no signs of strengthening either.
Jianchen frowned as he thought to himself, "How can this be? Even if this drop of Amethyst Spiritual Bamboo can't heal Caia, it should be able to strengthen Caia's soul at the very least with its powerful effects."
After a moment of silence, Jianchen pulled out a second piece of Amethyst Spiritual Bamboo and used it on Caia, but the results were the same. The effects of the Amethyst Spiritual Bamboo seemed to be completely ineffective on Caia.
