"Hmm..."

After finishing this large chunk of flesh, Mu Jinyu still felt quite hungry but let out a satisfied low groan.

Then, he lifted his gaze and focused on a few ferocious beasts entangled with Old Village Chief and Elder Ji. With a low roar, he charged straight ahead!

"Bang!!"

Mu Jinyu punched a Barbaric Demon Elephant, which had eight tusks and was covered in dense spiky hair, to death. With great strength, he tore its tough elephant skin apart, then opened his mouth and started biting ferociously.

Each gulp of the flesh and blood in his stomach provided some relief to his skin-and-bones appearance, and he began to feel his body swelling with Qi-Blood.

"Eat slowly, we'll get more for you!"

Though Old Village Chief felt extremely weary and was covered with injuries, seeing Mu Jinyu like this, he mustered his strength and continued to chase the ferocious beasts that had fled far away!

"Bang!"

"Boom!"

"Roar!!"

"Moo!!"

Elder Ji and the others, also heavily injured, forced themselves to keep going, following the Old Village Chief and hunted more ferocious beasts!

Then they threw the relatively intact beasts, not smashed into pieces, to Mu Jinyu. Swallowing down dozens of fierce beasts, Mu Jinyu's condition improved significantly.

"Phew..."

Mu Jinyu devoured a Golden Barbarian Bull as large as an elephant, let out a long breath of bloody air, and his entire body plumped with flesh. He no longer looked emaciated like before.

His eyes no longer gleamed with a maddening wolf-green light, and he regained his calm demeanor.

Though he still felt quite hungry, it was now comparable to an ordinary person who hadn't eaten for most of the day. He could bear it, allowing him to pause.

"Phew... Huff..."

Seeing Mu Jinyu's hunger alleviated, the Old Village Chief supported himself with a cane and stopped as well, breathing heavily.

The others, like Elder Ji, were so exhausted they lay on the ground, gasping for air!

"Master, Grandpa Ji..."

Mu Jinyu wiped the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth. Seeing the severe injuries of Old Village Chief and Elder Ji, he was startled and hurried over to treat them.

But as he ran to the Old Village Chief and placed his hand on his wrist, ready to activate the "Green Emperor Wood Emperor Scripture" to mobilize Life Source Energy to heal him, he froze.

No, that's not right!

Since he had abolished his cultivation body, there was no longer any True Yuan within him. He no longer cultivated the "Green Emperor Wood Emperor Scripture," and naturally, his Life Source Energy dissipated along with the True Yuan.

"This..."

Mu Jinyu's expression stiffened, momentarily unsure.

But he quickly realized that over the years, he had become accustomed to quickly saving and treating people using Life Source Energy, forgetting that he was originally a doctor. During his early days at Yinlong Mountain and just after leaving the mountain, he had no Life Source Energy, yet he still managed to treat people well.

Now, without Life Source Energy, it didn't mean he couldn't help others, right?

So what if there's no Life Source Energy? It couldn't even save the Mystical Little Tree!

Mu Jinyu quickly steeled his resolve and then, assessing the Old Village Chief's injuries, took out some medicinal herbs from his storage bag. He crushed them into a paste and carefully applied them to the Old Village Chief's wounds.

"What are you..."

The Old Village Chief was surprised by Mu Jinyu's actions and asked, "You know medical skills?"

Mu Jinyu smiled, "Yes, I know a little medicine. Your injuries aren't too severe, you'll recover quickly!"

As he spoke, Mu Jinyu efficiently applied medicine to the Old Village Chief's wounds.

After applying the medicine, Mu Jinyu hesitated, thinking that, after consuming so much flesh, his body had naturally generated considerable Blood Essence with the automatic running of the "Blood Tempering Method."

He wondered if his Blood Essence might have some therapeutic effects on Qi-Blood related injuries.

With this thought, Mu Jinyu decided to try.

So, Mu Jinyu cautiously mobilized a strand of Blood Essence, attempting to channel it into the one-foot-long wound on the Old Village Chief's right arm.

"Sizzle!!"

A slight abnormal sound arose.

"Hiss!!"

The Old Village Chief's already exhausted and pale face turned even paler as he kept sucking in cold air in pain.

Assuming it was either Mu Jinyu's medication taking effect or causing issues, he gritted his teeth and said, "Jinyu, why does my right hand hurt so much? Did you make a mistake with the medicine, or is this just the effect?"

Mu Jinyu replied, "Just wait a moment longer, Master, it'll get better soon..."

Mu Jinyu noticed that his Blood Essence was indeed working, rapidly healing and scabbing over the one-foot wound on the Old Village Chief's arm, and he felt elated.

'Great, though not as effective as Life Source Energy, it still adds another way to heal.'

Mu Jinyu spoke to himself internally, feeling quite satisfied.

Soon, Mu Jinyu removed the hardened medicinal paste from the Old Village Chief's arm and said, "Master, doesn't this feel much better?"

"Eh? It really doesn't hurt anymore. What medicine is this? It's miraculous! But why does my leg and abdomen still hurt so much?"

Hearing this, the Old Village Chief stopped gritting his teeth, realizing his arm indeed no longer hurt and had scabbed over.

"Wait a moment, I was just trying something..."

Mu Jinyu noticed as the beast tide receded, villagers from Xiaolin Village were gathering around them. Without elaborating with the Old Village Chief, he focused on using his Blood Essence more broadly across the Old Village Chief's injuries, no longer targeting just one area.

"Hiss!!"

"Ow, ow, ow..."

As Blood Essence surged into his injuries all over, hastening healing, the Old Village Chief's face turned deathly pale, and he grimaced in painful cries.

"Village Chief, are you okay?"

"What are you doing, boy? Are you trying to harm the Village Chief!"

"Old Lin, are you alright?"

"..."

Seeing the Old Village Chief's distress, the villagers of Xiaolin Village asked with concern.

At the same time, they glared at Mu Jinyu, suspecting that he might be doing something wrong.

The Old Village Chief, enduring the pain, raised his already healed right arm, waving to them slightly, "No, I'm fine. You don't need to worry..."

Mu Jinyu ignored the villagers, focusing solely on treating the Old Village Chief's injuries, including his hidden wounds and chronic conditions.

This is what caused the Old Village Chief such discomfort.

Quickly, Mu Jinyu removed the greyish-white hardened medicinal paste from the Old Village Chief's injuries, laughing, "Master, are you okay now?"

"Hm, indeed..."

The Old Village Chief tried moving a bit and activated the "Blood Tempering Method" to draw Blood Essence, noticing that the chronic pain in his abdomen, once exacerbated by cultivation, seemed gone?

He glanced at Mu Jinyu in surprise, "Your medical skills are astounding, even my old hidden wounds healed?"

Mu Jinyu bashfully smiled, "I'll help Grandpa Ji and the others now..."

With that, he walked over to Elder Ji and the others, who lay on the ground, reluctant to get up.
