After all, they knew that if the Nascent soul left the body before it was truly dead, Childe Wildlife might lose his cultivation base in the best case, and his life in the worst case.
Something like this was rather rare and only happened when the body was damaged beyond a limit when using Dao Embryos and Dao Skills.
Such was the strain that was put on one's body due to them. That was the reason why cultivators were not supposed to use the skills lightly. And using them should also be done within limits. If they didn't the consequence of it were lethal.
Lin Mu had seen this several times before back in the Xiao Fan world when the elders of the Northern Tribes used their shared Dao skills.
Thankfully, Childe Wildfire was in the best possible place to get injured like this.
The Temple of the Four Guardian beasts was no joke and had the best possible people to deal with this. The head healer also arrived and started stabilizing Childe Wildfire's Nascent soul while the others tried to restore some Immortal Qi.
They had to be very careful in doing this since Childe Wildfire's meridians were also damaged. They had to gently inject small amounts of Immoral Qi so that the damaged meridians wouldn't be stressed too much and break apart.
They even ignored the fleshly injuries of Childe Wildlife as they could later be taken care off.
It was also useless to deal with them at this moment since they were all caused due to the Scorching Sun flames. These kinds of burns were not easy to heal and common pills would not work on them.
It would take long term treatment to heal them, if it was even possible at that point.
~Sigh~
Lin Mu who saw this couldn't help but sigh.
'It was his own doing… the best I could do was to eject him from the Spatial Plane.' Lin Mu thought to himself.
Childe Wildfire was no naive man and had used his Dao skills knowing very well that it could bring harm to himself. As such there was no one he could blame other than himself.
And considering his personality that Lin Mu had observed so far, the man wouldn't have it any other way either.
"At least he fought well. He certainly did force Feng Baxing's hand." Lin Mu muttered to himself.
Childe Wildlife was the only person who had forced the Third Prince to use the Shearing Hurricane Fan. And not just use it but also summon the Weapon Spirit.
'Summoning the Weapon Spirit should have also come at a cost… it takes a lot of Immortal Qi after all.' Lin Mu thought to himself.
Feeling curious, he used his Immortal sense to check the Crown Prince as well.
"Sure enough… the Immortal Qi fluctuations coming from him have fallen as well." Lin Mu muttered. "He has probably used up more than 80% of his Immortal Qi for it to have fallen to this level." He reckoned.
This was good information for Lin Mu as he now knew that the Third Prince also had his limitations. After all, Lin Mu would be facing the man soon too, and needed to know as much as he could about him.
If he didn't know about the Shearing Hurricane Fan and that it could summon the Great Hurricane Falcon Weapon spirit it could be very interring for him and could very well spell his defeat.
Without his Spatial Skills, there were limitations to what Lin Mu could do to stop it after all.
Just the Shearing Hurricane Fan would be more than enough to threaten Lin Mu, and if the weapon spirit was also summoned, Lin Mu would be pushed to his limits.
It made him think about what he could do to counteract this.
'I'll need to think of a way to survive it all… considering how much Immortal Qi Feng Baxing lost in that short time, it is quite clear that using the Shearing Hurricane Fan and summoning the Weapon Spirit consumes a lot of Immortal Qi.
As long as I can endure that, Feng Baxing will have lost.' Lin Mu thought to himself and formulated a potential plan against the man.
The previous scenarios that he had made needed to be changed quite a bit due to the addition of the weapon fan.
Originally Lin Mu had thought that he would simply focus on breaking the wind barrier and then getting close enough to attack the Third Prince. But now there was the additional threat of the Shearing Hurricane Fan.
'One thing is for sure, I'll have to use all my cultivation for this. Only by using my Body cultivation will I be able to endure all that.' Lin Mu reckoned.
And while he was thinking all this, Lin Mu's companions were coming to terms with the conclusion of the fight as well.
"How did Feng Baxing get that fan? Do you know anything, Qian Wen?" Luo Liqin questioned.
"As far as I recall, the Shearing Hurricane Fan is something that the Emperor wouldn't give out easily." Qian Wen replied. "In fact, I recall even the Crown Prince being denied in the past." He added.
"Even the Crown Prince? But isn't he the strongest?" Ming Aolian questioned.
"Indeed… which makes the entire matter even more confusing. One thing is for sure though, the Third Prince probably had to force the Emperor to give him the Fan somehow.
How he did that though is a mystery…" Qian Wen answered.
Since Qian Wen who was the most informed about the matter of the Imperial Family couldn't figure it out, the others also didn't think further.
Back at the Tournament grounds, the healers had already transported Childe Wildlife away and the arrays were now being reset.
"Ahem!~" The overseeing elder coughed, silencing the crowd. "We'll be shortly resuming the tournament in two hours, the contestants Yao Changying and Daoist Mu Lin should be prepared." He announced.
Lin Mu opened his eyes upon hearing this and focused on his current opponent for now.
