Daily life of a cultivation judge Chapter 537 Eight months ago (9)

Lai Lei turned to look at the torso one more ti, before he shook his head and sat on the jade-green platform to replenish his spiritual qi and heal his injuries, especially the cracks in his ridians that made him feel like a thousand knives were coursing through his body cutting him up.

The runes in the platform imdiately lit up the mont Lai Lei started circulating his cultivation art in a bid to draw in the spiritual qi from the river and the white lotus to heal his wounds.

A tendril-like gelatinous translucent string appeared from the platform and wrapped itself around Lai Lei's leg and then proceeded to cover his entire body.

The substance wrapped around him like a burble as green, blue, and yellow lights flashed around it. Black substances were imdiately released from Lai Lei's open wounds which imdiately closed up after the black smudge was produced.

Within minutes the gelatinous bubble was ink-black with the green, blue, and yellow lights being the only visible things within it.

After a quarter of an hour, the bubble beca clear once more revealing a completely healed Lai Lei who though was still missing his leg had a serene look to him.

Lai Lei gently opened his eyes as the gelatinous bubble slowly receded from his body with the dimming of the runes on the jade platform.

He checked his body with satisfaction before his gaze fell on his leg where he couldn't help but sigh.

"Figures it couldn't be restored yet.." he said as he massaged his knee that missed the lower half.

"But after one more hour, the ravaging qi from the clash should have been completely purged out which will make it easier to reform it..." he added as he wiped the black liquid leaking from his leg, accompanied by faint sparks.

"But all in all this is still good, my spiritual qi has been restored halfway and all the other injuries except the leg have been healed completely.." Lai Lei muttered as he stretched his body and then walked over to the torso of one of the black-robed individuals.

"I guess it's about ti I see even if it's one of the faces of my would-be attackers.." Lai Lei said as he stretched his hand toward the mask that was still attached to the head on the torso.

The mont Lai Lei's hands made contact, the spider's abdon mask which was red and black suddenly rippled like a liquid and jumped on Lai Lei's hands.

Lai Lei on detecting the sudden change, reacted swiftly and tried to pull his hand back as he lept backward, however, the mask that had now transford into a crystal clear syrupy liquid had already reached his hands with terrifying speed.

The mont the white liquid made contact with his hand, Lai Lei could feel his resistance to it quickly erode and was replaced by a sense of comfort like he was falling into his mother's embrace.

Lai Lei's body started relaxing as he took a sit with a warm smile as he saw the white liquid encroach on his hands. It had already gone past his elbow radiating a white gentle glow and was quickly moving up his arm aiming for his neck and finally head.

However, the mont it reached his shoulder, sothing seed to have been set off from within Lai Lei's body as golden scales imdiately appeared but this ti they were denser than before as they seed to cover every area of him and the auspicious air he released was thicker, and his free hand turned into a crystal white hoove that had ancient glyphs that released a majestic supre air. His eyes turned golden while two golden dragon-like horns of absolute purity grew from his forehead.

An inscrutable primordial roar escaped from his mouth that seed to call the power of the heavens as he used his hoof hand to sever his other arm from the shoulder. The white liquid shrieked as if alive when the hoove fell on it. His arm with the white liquid was imdiately sent flying as it was dismbered by the golden hoof. Radiant golden blood that released auspicious air was produced from his bleeding shoulders.

A golden white wave was then produced from his mouth with its target being the dismbered arm. An intense shrill scream was produced from the hand that seed to be burning. The scream subsided after a few seconds, and a minute later the gold-white wave disappeared along with the dismbered arm.

Lai Lei who looked less human and more like a majestic being, imdiately collapsed as his body went back to normal. However, he imdiately started seizing while cracks appeared in his body as he bled all over.

The twitching got more intense, and a light was being released from the cracks almost as if he was about to implode..

....

65 km away from the Silver scaled oak forest

"You said, Lai Lei?! How was he?! How did he sound?! What was his state?! No, forget it, I will confirm it myself.."

A young lady with light brown hair tied in a ponytail and blue robes with frost flower patterns imdiately flew in the direction of the Silver scaled oak forest with conical explosions being produced in the wake of her speed.

...

(Ten minutes later, Hidden abode within Silver scaled oak forest)

"This?! What happened? Lai Lei, are you alive?!" the young lady with brown hair, madly dashed toward the unconscious Lai Lei who was emaciated and looked like a dried-up corpse lying in an unending pool of blood surrounded by green fog and tendrils piercing his entire body.

The young lady quickly poured over a dozen healing potions on the corpse like Lai Lei along with executing every ergency healing art she could think of.

"His dantian and ridians all have cracks just on the verge of shattering...Lai Lei, you need to hang on, didn't we all promise we would go bully the demon instructors when we beca powerful.." the young lady frantically muttered as she did all she could to stop the bleeding.

"Hello, hello, this is Roaming inquisitor Hu Jiaying, help! help! Inquisitor Lai Lei is dying, send gold-grade healers, soul formation experts, anyone, Lai Lei won't survive long.."

...

Present day

Yang Qing sighed when he recalled how he only learned about the matter concerning Lai Lei a few months after it happened all because he wanted to fool around more.

In those few months, Dai Chen would have been a deserter had it not been for the intervention of their group who managed to forcibly restrain him with the help of his palace realm inquisitor.

The state in which Lai Lei had been brought in, and the extent of the damage had shaken Dai Chen to his core, and after the shock ca rage and impulsiveness. Despite being told not to investigate the matter personally so soon before the special inquisitors confird there weren't any looming threats, Dai Chen pretended he had listened and left in search of who hard Lai Lei despite not having enough clues other than where he was attacked.

His actions though understandable would have landed him in severe disciplinary action because what he was doing not only endangered himself but the lives of those who would have to co to help him.

Kang Huilang, Xia Boqin, Yu Huifang, Zhang Qingge, and Hu Jiaying along with one of his inquisitors imdiately intercepted him before he got too far and had to work together to forcibly bring him back and for the next three months until Yang Qing ca out of his seclusion, they all ensured they were with him at all tis until he cooled down.

They helped keep him sane during that ti.
