The injured native warriors were still actively trying to heal themselves, although their numbers had been reduced to less than a tenth. Those who remained were steadfast in will and powerful in their purity; otherwise, they wouldn't stand a chance against the dark corruption that spawned the blackening.
While they attended to their wounds, Zheng Yichen was examining an amulet in his hand. Being influenced by demonic thoughts this time, he managed to retain some of his original self-awareness, which was largely thanks to this amulet made from the "exuvia" that belonged to him in a previous world.
Before it became an amulet, the layer of exuvia could absorb demonic thoughts. Even though this diminished the power of the Demonic Abyss Seven Kills that Zheng Yichen could unleash, exchanging a degree of lethal power for a special effect seemed worthwhile after the amulet proved its utility.
