Treatment

Sun bear territory

Upon arrival Shadow looked around and saw that the population of the sun bears were around fifty, they lived near by a lake which they had access to fish when they grew hungry.

As a large clan that had many strong spirit beasts their survival in the desolate forest was secured thanks to their thick hides giving them much tougher bodies than most other spirit beasts.

Most of the sun bears spirit attribute was earth which was very suitable for their physique boosting their already high defensive capabilities so they could fight their enemies without worrying about becoming injured unless they were up against someone with a much higher rank or possessed a strong enough body to penetrate their thick hide.

Shadow saw their potential at a glance as she did in the tiger clan, while the tiger clan would fight well in an all out bloodthirsty attack charging through their enemies the bear clan were more suited to more defensive strategies to wear down their opponents strength.

For example in the wolf attack against the tigers, they limited their potential because they had to split up to cover a large area to stop the wolves allowing the others to escape.

If it was the bears in the same situation they would not need to care too much as they could draw out the battle with the wolves when outnumbered and cause them to become tired before finishing them off while the tigers situation would have been better if they worked solo or in teams to stalk and catch the wolves by surprise instead of being out in the open waiting for the enemy to approach.

Shadow followed the bear into their territory and a lot of the bears stared at her with vigilance ready to attack at a moments notice while others didn't seem to put this deer in their eyes.

As an intruder into their lands Shadow naturally understood their thoughts and continued to follow behind the sun bear with a human 'sleeping' on her back.

Just as some sun bears were about to approach the sun bear leading Shadow ordered. "Step back this friend is here to see the clan leader go back to what you were doing."

Relaxing their vigilance some bears returned to sparring while a few others began catching fish in the lake.

Seeing this Shadow understood the one leading her has a high position among the sun bears meaning he is probably the son of the clan leader judging from his strength.

Upon reaching the clan leader Shadows eyes fell upon a large bears figure, the bear looked almost identical to the bear beside her but he was the eldest and strongest bear within the clan.

He had a deep scar on his right eye leaving him unable to see from it, he also had numerous scars and injuries on his front and back from past battles in addition to a newly formed injury close to his heart.

Shadow observed the injury and confirmed that the wound was not heavily serious but the wound had become infected and the bear had become weak and sick after his injury.

A weak voice came from the elder bear. "This is not the smell of my clan, who are you? Why have you come?"

"Hello elder, my name is Shadow I am a deer spirit beast part of the Ever-reach clan that is located on the ever-reaching mountain. I encountered your clansmen who was searching for a way to heal you of your wounds, he encountered a human and was injured so I stepped in. After hearing about your injury I offered my help in hopes that this can help to improve the relationship between our two clans." Shadow began to explain.

"I see, thank you for bringing my stupid son back home. I do not think that you will be able to help me, the human pierced their weapon deep into me and the wound has not healed well. I can feel that I may not have much time left." He spoke as his voice was becoming weaker as he spoke each word.

"You still have enough time left living for me to prove you wrong. Then I hope we can talk properly." Shadow walked towards him inspecting his wound further.

The sun bear beside her asked. "Can he be healed?"

"Yes but he has lost too much blood and his wound is infected so I suggest that he be knocked out during the treatment." Shadow replied while touching her storage bag and placing some clean tools and materials on a cloth by the bear.

She walked over close to the large bear and hit him hard enough to make him unconscious before taking another look at his wound.

During the healing process the wound had come into contact with the dirt and become infected during the healing process.

Any diseases or bacteria got into the wound and entered his blood stream as the wound began to close up, with a large amount of blood loss the already weakened bear could not fight off the illness and would soon head closer towards his death.

Shadow however picked up a knife between her teeth and used all of her concentration while cutting around the scabbed and infected area.

After separating infected area she began to place her hoof on the bears body injecting her light spirit energy into his body pushing and guiding any foreign matter out of his bloodstream while protecting his heart until some black blood came from the wound in the bears chest from where the cut was made.

After releasing all of the black blood Shadow began cleaning the wound before placing her hoof above it.

Her light spirit energy hovered over the open wound and began to accelerate the healing speed, after a short time the wound began to close up leaving a large scab over where the wound had been.

Shadow picked up a 50 year old blood ginseng which she took from her storage bag and handed it to the bear standing dazed beside her.

"Wha.." The bear woke up from his confusion and looked at the deer giving him a flower. "What did you do?"

"I treated him. Give him this to eat when he wakes up, it should help with his blood loss." Shadow found the bears reaction funny but still decided to inform him seriously. "If you have any herbs like this one within your clan then they would be helpful with his recovery."

How could Shadow not find the dumbfounded bear amusing after watching her treatment?

Humans had long improved their techniques and experimented in various ways to improve various professions with the use of spirit energy.

The bears may have met a light attribute spirit beast before but they would never be capable of what Shadow had done because of their lack of knowledge on their own and others body structure and how to properly apply their spirit energy.

Shadow however came from the Holy Sect in the immortal world who were famous for their treatments which could save lives from the brink of death.

Of course not everyone from the sect could be said to be perfect in their treatment but after Shadow joined she soaked every bit of knowledge she could until she gained enough experience to earn the right to be the next sect leader.

She could be considered their best student within the past ten thousand years but sadly the sect lost her because of their poor judgement, now she is in a mortal world which the humans in this world could not possess even ten percent of her knowledge in medical treatment and knowledge of herbs and poisons.

So how could ordinary spirit beasts know a thing about what just happened before their eyes, it could only be described as a miracle.
