"Just like I said, replace the blood crystals." Jin Rou said, "Your ancestor cannot hold on unless blood crystals surround him. That's what keeps him alive. With the depletion of the crystals, it's necessary to change them."
Ancestor Minru was already too old. He was one of the commanders under the banner of Grand Mysterious during their era. He helped the sovereign sweep the Thousand Realms for many generations.
If the sect wanted to save the ancestor's life, they had to pay the price for it. Of course, the other elders would surely be happy to pay as long as the price was right. That is if they had the resources to do so.
"But the sect no longer has the money to buy them..." Little Chor said with a pale expression. The price of blood crystals was too high for the current situation of the sect to afford.
