Chapter 1370: Heavenly Samsara: Chapter 119

Chapter 1369

…

But An Gudo dare not do anything at this time and could just keep his anger in his heart.

"Be happy for now while it lasts, sooner or later, you will land on my hands… And when that happens, I will make sure to ground you into fine dust…" he thought angrily as he feels an invisible slap on his face due to the action of the brat.

By this time, Aunt Jing walked towards Xin Ja and with an embarrassed expression bowed before him.

This stunned Xin Ja as he did not expect the old woman to bow before him in this manner.

"I have neglected my duty as a host and let you suffer… I apologize, Young Xin…" she said.

But Xin Ja quickly caught her hand and quickly helped her up.

"Senior, you are too polite… I am just a mere ant in your eyes… I know my place…" he said with a helpless smile.

He quickly turns around and walked back to the ruined building.

"Alchemy Master Xin, we will assign a new room for you… Please follow me." Jing Xue called as if nothing has happened.

She knew the pride of the young man and she also has her pride, so it is better not to talk about what just happened.

Xin Ja did not want to follow her, as he did not know what the old-looking woman is thinking. Whenever he is with her, he feels like a viper lurking near his neck and he should always be on guard.

But this time, he did not want to be rude, so he followed behind her until they arrive in another courtyard.

As Xin Ja settled down, he asked that no one should disturb him for the time being.

But two hours later, someone came knocking on his door which made him feel a bit helpless.

He opened the door and saw an old man in a walking cane smiling before him.

When he scanned the body of the old man his sight displays a series of numbers that immediately startled him.

The number is a bit too high for a mere old man.

From the number which is around 40 thousand, he immediately knew that this guy is the old patriarch of the An Clan. He is an old monster hiding in seclusion as he focused himself on cultivating his strength trying to break through to the next realm.

"I thought that he is a Ki-Grandmaster, but it seems that I was mistaken…" Xin Ja thought with a hint of relief in his heart.

But, even though the old man is not a Ki-Grandmaster, he is still a late-stage Ki-Champion which is a thousand times better than him.

"This junior greets the old patriarch of the Clan…" Xin Ja quickly greeted as he lowered his head while cupping his hand.

The old man nodded his head and showed an amicable smile. He dismisses the people behind him and walked inside the room.

As he got seated, Xin Ja quickly served him a cup of tea.

"I heard that you are a master alchemist from the Rock Ledge city… If I may, can I inquire of your services…" the old man did not beat around the bush and just said what is in his mind.

Xin Ja was a bit wary but did not want to show it on his face so he clenched his fists inside his long sleeves and nodded his head.

The old man saw the nod and smiled as he takes out a few boxes with a wave of his hand.

Xin Ja was a bit surprised to know that the old man actually has a spatial ring.

Seeing that the young man is looking at his ring, the old man showed a happy smile.

"This is something that little Jing has given me… Hehe. I have given the ancestral ring to the current patriarch, so I truly missed having my own spatial ring… Luckily, you guys got one for me, Hehe…" the old man seems a bit happy while looking at the ring on his finger.

Xin Ja checked the boxes and discovered that they contains high-tier herbs which almost made him stagger in surprise.

"This… These are tier 8 herbs…" he muttered while looking at the boxes with disbelief.

Even in his normal state, he could only do low-grade tier 8 herbs. He has not tried making some high-grade pills with tier 8 herbs.

At the onset of things, alchemy is only a part of the skills he has learned from his unique vision.

But looking at the 8th-tier herbs, he was also a bit excited to try his hand at refining and concocting it into a pill.

From the ingredients he is given, Xin Ja frowned as he is not familiar with what kind of pill he is tasked to create.

In fact, since the number of herbs is five, then he is able to create many types of pills using such combinations.

Seeing the slight frown on his face, the old man showed a slight smile on his wizened face.

"I wanted you to create this…" he showed a prescription written in beast skin.

"Life Potency Enhancing potion…" Xin Ja muttered while looking at the name on the prescription.

His eyes then went wide as he looks at the old man. But he also feels a bit relieved as it is not a pill but actually a potion.

Sensing that the young man seem to be curious about his health he could only chuckle.

"Haha… I know what you're thinking… I will not deny it, since you're an outsider and from another place, I am not worried that you will expose this news either…" the old man seemed to trust Xin Ja for some reason unknown to him.

"Senior, if you permit me… Can I check your pulse?" Xin Ja asked politely.

The old man frowned for a bit but then showed curiosity as he extended his hand to him.

He is not worried about anything as Jing Xue has already checked his condition and he knew that his old wound is acting up once again. His supply of Life Potency Enhancing potion is already running dry and the alchemist from the family is unable to provide him with a good potion.

Xin Ja carefully feel the old man's pulse and then quickly extended his Absolute Sense towards the old man's body.

After doing so, a 3D image of the old man's body appears in his sight.

He could see what is happening in his body and the organs that are affected by the disease.

From what he could tell, the disease looks similar to a disease he once saw in the data from the unique vision. That disease is called… cancer.

But from the things he knew, cancer might be deadly to mortals, but to people with powers like them, it is not that dangerous.

After expelling the toxicity from their bodies as they get to high realms, their bodies are renewed, or translated into perfection.

So how could such a disease appear in the body of a late-stage Ki-Champion realm?

Seeing the frown on the young man's face, he knew that the young man could tell what is wrong with his body.

"Senior, if I may… I'm not saying that this potion will not be effective, but it is just prolonging the inevitability… In the end, your life would still end without even running even an inch of your true lifespan…" Xin Ja explained.

The lifespan of a Ki-Champion could go more than a thousand years. And from the density of the bone of the old man, he could tell that he is only in his hundreds.

So he could guess that his old appearance is due to the disease he has.

"So, do you have any solution?" the old patriarch asked with expectant eyes.

"Hmm… I can offer you two options… One is the way of the ancient medical art, and the second is the way of the modern medical art…"

When the old man heard this, he frowned as he did not know what the young man is saying. He almost looks behind him as he wanted to ask if what the young man is saying is true, but he stops himself from doing so.

"Let me explain…" Xin Ja began explaining the difference between ancient medical art and modern medical art.

After an hour of explanation, the expression of the old man turned a bit serious.

How could he let himself become unconscious and let this young man do anything with his body? As a powerful being, the idea of a mere ant cutting pieces of his flesh is a bit insulting to him.

But from the way the young man explains it, he could feel that it would be faster for him to heal that the ancient medical art.

While he is musing, a figure suddenly appears inside the room.

Xin Ja almost jump from his seat when he saw the figure of a veiled woman appearing out of thin air.

He was startled as he did not even detect her even with his Absolute Sense a while ago.

But the woman did not bother with his reaction as she suddenly stood in front of him.

"Are you sure of the success of this so-called… operation?" she asked while her eyes looks serious looking straight at him.

Xin Ja did not know who the woman is, but she felt a bit familiar with him.
