The Urban Medical Martial Immortal-Chapter 812 - 808 Blood Pool (First Update!)

The generational curse, rooted in the heritage of the tribe’s people, flows in their blood and cannot be dispelled.

For thousands upon thousands of years, the people of the Dragon Slaying Valley Tribe have tried everything, yet they remain helpless against this curse.

Their lifespans are much shorter than ordinary people unless they constantly become stronger!

But not every tribe member can cultivate and extend their own life!

Leading the crowd deeper into the valley, Shi Youxuan’s pretty face, once angry towards Lin Tian, gradually turned despondent.

"Indeed, a curse that cannot be broken for generations, it’s like being haunted by a ghost!"

Beside her, Elder Jiang shook his head and sighed, "I wonder how the other branches are doing!"

"Other branches?"

Lin Tian was puzzled and looked over in surprise.

"The people of the Dragon Slaying Valley Tribe are descendants of JiuLii!"

Ren Woxiao spoke at this time, explaining to Lin Tian, with a gentle sigh, "The JiuLii Clan, during the era of the Ancient Cultivation World, was once very powerful, dominating the eight wildernesses! But later during the Great Catastrophe era, the Cultivation World entered a vacuum period, and many heritages were lost. The JiuLii Clan was disintegrated in that war, splitting into many branches! The Dragon Slaying Valley Tribe is one of them! But, they inherited this terrible curse! The Old Chieftain once mentioned to me, this curse... is called the JiuLii Blood Curse! As for the source of this curse, the reason for the curse, it is all unknown! Besides, there is also the Bone Burial Mountain, another branch of JiuLii descendants, but the curse they endure is much lighter, they just cannot leave the Burial Village!

JiuLii descendants?

Lin Tian couldn’t help but reveal a look of surprise.

He didn’t know much about the JiuLii Clan.

But besides this Dragon Slaying Valley, the Bone Burial Mountain’s Burial Village is also a descendant of JiuLii!

"JiuLii descendants? Why not the Nine Celestial Clan? Could it be that JiuLii is just a branch of the Nine Celestials wandering on this Earth?"

With doubts and confusion in his mind, Lin Tian remained silent without further questioning.

These people know about the JiuLii Clan, but they certainly have not heard of the Nine Celestial Clan.

Even Shi Youxuan and the people of the Dragon Slaying Valley probably don’t know about the existence of the Nine Celestial Clan!

Lin Tian followed the crowd through the massive skeletons to the actual Dragon Slayer Tribe.

Looking at the tribal buildings and people exuding an aura of primitive culture, Lin Tian couldn’t help but reveal a deep sense of reminiscence.

In his past life, he had walked and cultivated on an ancient clan continent in the Desert Sea; fighting and cultivating tirelessly in this primitive and wild atmosphere.

Soon.

The crowd arrived at the edge of the Blood Pool, where the tribe’s chieftain, Shi Changkong, was still sitting cross-legged.

"What is this blood pool used for?"

At the sight of the blood pool, Lin Tian’s gaze suddenly sharpened, revealing a solemn expression, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Elder Ren has arrived!"

Shi Changkong opened his eyes and stood up at the same time, giving a respectful salute to Ren Woxiao. He knew what kind of existence and status the latter once held, so even though his cultivation had dropped, he could not afford to be disrespectful. Following that, Shi Changkong’s gaze landed on Lin Tian, "Who is he?"

"Grandfather, he is Brother Lin Tian! His medical skills are amazing, let him take a look at our people!"

A crisp, joyful voice came from behind the blood pool, as Shi Xiaomeng bounced out from a stone house in the depths and walked up to Lin Tian.

"Could his medical skills really be better than Elder Jiang’s?"

Shi Changkong had previously heard Shi Youxuan mention Lin Tian and was unimpressed, thinking of the young as arrogant, but he refrained from speaking too harshly in person, opting for a courteous approach.

"Elder Changkong, although I, Jiang, have inherited the Ancient Medicine Sect, when it comes to treating and saving people, I am not as good as the Little Divine Doctor Lin!"

Elder Jiang smiled bitterly, shaking his head with an expression of shame.

"Oh..."

Personally hearing Elder Jiang so highly praise and adore, Shi Changkong was very surprised and couldn’t help glancing at Shi Youxuan.

"Grandfather, his medical skills are indeed amazing!"

Shi Youxuan had to admit the wonder of Lin Tian’s acupuncture technique at this time, "However, the blood curse on our people, he may not be able to solve it!"

"Grandfather, see how Sister was all fierce to others yesterday, saying his skills were poor, but now she has immediately changed her tune!"

Shi Xiaomeng, having previously seen Shi Youxuan react resentfully towards Lin Tian, was concerned, but seeing her change, she couldn’t help but beam with joy, "Grandfather, just let Brother Lin Tian have a look!"

"In that case, we will trouble the little brother and Elder Jiang to ponder a solution to the blood curse for our tribe later!"

Shi Changkong’s attitude towards Lin Tian softened, "As long as the little brother can solve my people’s problems, even if there is just a better alleviation method, this old man will certainly reward handsomely!"

Saying this, Shi Changkong stood up, ready to step out of the blood pool and gather the tribe’s people.

But Lin Tian shook his head, stating, "The blood curse issue you’re talking about is not on you! It’s on this... blood pool! Moreover, there should be other things, along with the blood pool, eroding the bodies of the Dragon Slayer Tribe’s people year after year, forming what you call the blood curse! Actually, it’s simply an array formed as a nourishment field! Your entire Dragon Slayer Valley is the Yang Material Field! And the blood pool is its most essential array eye! Therefore, just destroy the blood pool, and everything will be easily resolved!"

What!

Upon hearing Lin Tian’s words, everyone looked on in astonishment.

"You... you are crazy! Do you know what the blood pool is used for? It’s used to suppress the blood curse inside our tribe’s bodies! If it weren’t for the blood pool, could our Dragon Slaying Valley Tribe reach today?"

Shi Youxuan’s beautiful eyes widened, as she turned to coldly reprimand Lin Tian, "I thought your inherited medical skills were amazing, it seems it’s just acupuncture! You may save people with that miraculous needlework, but your vision is far too limited! When Elder Jiang first came to our Dragon Slaying Valley, he could tell this blood pool is full of vitality, able to suppress the strange blood curse in our people’s bodies..."

Listening to Shi Youxuan’s words, Elder Jiang and others nodded in agreement.

Shi Changkong paused his steps, frowning, slightly disappointed, shaking his head at Lin Tian.

Shi Xiaomeng opened her mouth, at a loss.

It was Ren Woxiao who showed surprise and doubt, asking Lin Tian, "Brother Lin, do you have any evidence for what you’re saying?"

Ren Woxiao was very cautious; he had seen Lin Tian’s extraordinary skills, be it alchemy or healing, and he hoped what Lin Tian said was true—that destroying the blood pool would solve the problem.

However, he also knew that the blood pool is one of the essentials of the Dragon Slayer Tribe. Simply saying destroy it is too flippant.

"No!"

Lin Tian responded quietly, shaking his head.

Indeed, he had no evidence, because there was no need for any evidence; anyone with a bit of insight could see the blood pool was absorbing the vitality of the Dragon Slayer Tribe’s people.

And this absorption was subtle, generation upon generation providing vitality and nourishment to this blood pool.

To put it plainly, the people of the Dragon Slayer Valley Tribe were akin to being reared, just waiting for new life to appear and be perpetually taken, just without the act of killing the goose that lays the golden eggs!
