Chapter 88: This Isn't Illness, It's Poison
s in a twist over a young lad"This spirit's strength is also extremely powerful, possessing the cultivation of the Seventh Heaven Peak.Second only to Barton in strength among those present."Get angry"...Soon, the door was opened and a maid respectfully bowed: "The master invites you."
Everyone, please ask Meng Tianling to lead the way, and then everyone will enter the bedroom together.
There weren't many people in the bedroom, only a few caretakers and a rough-looking, sturdy middle-aged man.
On the bed lay an elderly man, his hair white as snow and his body thin as a stick. His face was wrinkled and pale, his eyes hollow and weary, ravaged by illness beyond recognition.
This is precisely the pillar of the Meng family, the patriarch Meng Tianhuang.
Fang Chen's expression was complicated. The person in front of him was an old friend of his master, and Fang Chen had met him twice when he was a child. Back then, Meng Tianhuang was imposing with a powerful physique, his face flushed with energy.
But I never expected that in just a few years, it would become like this.
Mèng Tiānhuāng also looked over, his gaze sweeping across Fang Chén and the others' faces.
However, he didn't recognize Fang Chen, after all, Fang Chen was too young back then and now his appearance has changed drastically.
He managed a strained smile and said to Lin Yuan, "I'm sorry, Master Lin. I can't drink with you anymore."
The two of them were old acquaintances, and this was also the reason why Lin Yuan came over personally.
Lin Yuan saw the celestial scene of "The Vastness Between Heaven and Earth" in his dream, and his expression was complicated.
"Master Meng, there might be a chance for us to drink together. Come, let me have a look, maybe I can find a way to cure you."
After he finished speaking, he walked to Meng Tianhuang's presence.
Meng Tianhuang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "This is an old ailment of mine, incurable."
Although he said so, he still stretched out his hand.
Lin Yuan grasped Meng Tianhuang's wrist and probed his body with his divine sense.
During the Western Zhou Dynasty, a profound silence reigned. Everyone feared disturbing Lin Yuan's investigation.
Meng Tianling and the rough man both wore expectant expressions, hoping that Lin Yuan could see the problem and at least give them a little more hope.
After a stick of incense, Lin Yuan let go and remained silent.
But everyone could see from his dejected expression that he had failed.
Mèngtiānlíng showed a look of disappointment, but soon recovered his usual composure.
He's experienced too many failures like this, he's already used to it.
Meng Tianhuang, though facing hardship, remained undeterred. With a carefree smile, he said to Master Lin, "Master Lin, there's no need for this. It's an old habit of mine, and I accept it."
Lin Yuan sighed slightly and said, “This illness is strange to the extreme. Although one can sense its existence, it remains elusive in terms of its location. However, I have a vague feeling that this ailment possesses a certain degree of evil and yin.”
Meng Tianling said, "Master Lin Yuan is right. The previous masters also said the same thing, but no one could see through it. Medicine and pills were useless."
Jing Ying said: "Even my master couldn't see through it, I'm afraid no one in the Divine Eastern Region could either."
Meng Tian frowned slightly, and the other members of the Meng family were also displeased.
"Quiet!" Lin Yuan scolded.
Jingying knew her words were a bit too much, but she didn't feel like she was wrong.
Even a master so powerful that his own teacher couldn't see the illness, only the Sixth Rank Grandmaster in the East Divine Domain could see it.
"Let me try.
"
Suddenly, a voice rang out, attracting everyone's attention.
Everyone turned to see who had spoken, and found that it was Fang Chen.
Then everyone exclaimed, and the myriad stars also arrived.
Jing Ying saw Fang Chen say that he wanted to give it a try, and immediately said disdainfully, "Even my master couldn't see the illness of the Dream Master. Can you Don't embarrass yourself here."
Fang Chen ignored her and looked at Meng Tianhuang instead.
Meng Tianhuang asked, "I wonder who this young brother is"
"My surname is Fang, and I am Fang Chen, a distinguished client of the Wanxing Auction House."
"Guest of the First Rank"
Everyone was surprised. A top-grade item from the Wanxing Auction House isn't so easily obtained, which means Fang Chen must have something special to make Wanxing pay attention to him.
The most important thing is that Fang Chen became a Wanxing First Grade Guest Minister at such a young age, his future is limitless.
Lin Yuan looked at Fang Chen and asked, "Young friend, are you also an alchemist"
He didn't deny it.
What level is it
Second Rank
At this, everyone was slightly taken aback. Though the rank of second grade is low, Fang Chen is so young after all.
Now, the youngest renowned second-rank alchemist is in his late twenties or early thirties.
Lin Yuan asked again, "How old are you, young friend"
Seventeen
A collective gasp arose from the crowd.
A seventeen-year-old alchemist of the second rank, that Jian Shou is a once-in-a-millennium prodigy of the alchemy path!
"It's impossible!"
At sixteen, she became a first-grade alchemist and was already one of the most gifted young talents in the Eastern Region. How could Fang Chen become a second-grade alchemist at seventeen!
This world! There's no way a person could be this amazing!
"I don't believe it! Unless you refine a second-rank pill right in front of me! Otherwise, you absolutely couldn't possibly be a second-rank alchemist!" she said.
Han Bing smiled coldly and said: "What are you, to say that Fang Keqing needs your approval to be a second-rank alchemist"
"As the top genius of Dan Dao, I can't even do it! How could he possibly achieve it!"
She looked at Fang Chen with eyes full of contempt and disdain. She didn't believe that anyone in the Eastern Region of the Divine Dao had a talent higher than hers.
"You can't do it doesn't mean others can't. You really think you're someone, don't you" Han Bingxin rolled her eyes.
"You!"
Jingying's face flushed with anger. Since she had entered the path of alchemy, she had never been mocked like this before.
"Jingying! Enough!" Lin Yuan rebuked.
Although Jingying was still angry, seeing her master truly upset, she could only say, "What a cowardly fellow," and then fell silent.
"Little friend, I'm truly sorry," Lin Yuan apologized.
It's alright, Fang Chen said.
From beginning to end, he ignored Jingying. Such a conceited person didn't need to say much, because the other party wouldn't listen anyway.
Meng Tianling hesitated, looking at Fang Chen. Although Fang Chen was talented and accomplished for his age, he was still too young.
He felt it was unnecessary for Fangchen to see it, as that would just be a waste of time.
But at this time, Meng Tianhuang spoke: "Since that's the case, Fang Keqing, then I'll trouble you."
Meng Tianling was startled and exclaimed, "Father!"
Meng Tianhuang waved his hand and said, "Mr. Fang came here to see me, how could I possibly let him make a wasted trip This isn't the way of hospitality in the Meng family."
Meng Tianling pondered for a moment, and finally did not say much.
Now that his father's situation has deteriorated, he can only try to make the best of a bad situation.
"Please trouble the guest, Meng Tianling said."
Fang Chen nodded slightly, then came to Meng Tianhuang's bedside.
"He is overreaching himself. Jing Ying disdains him."
Fang Chen ignored her and slowly grasped Meng Tianhuang's wrist, his divine sense probing into it.
As Lin Yuan said, Meng Tianhuang's body is extremely strange. Although his internal energy was destroyed, the source could not be found.
Just like Meng Tianhuang's body was supposed to be like this, it exuded a strange aura.
"Um"
As he continued to probe deeper into the body, Fang Chen suddenly detected a familiar aura.
He probed with his spiritual awareness, and it was in the direction of the dantian.
"There's a problem with the dantian, or it all stems from there!"
A hint of joy flashed in his heart as he felt it arrive beside his dantian.
Lin Tianhuang's dantian was extremely vast, even Fang Chen couldn't probe its entirety.
Such a powerful dantian has already surpassed the realm of great masters and reached a higher level.
That is also Fang Chen's realm of looking up.
He probed around his dantian, but what furrowed his brows was the familiar feeling that was indeed there, yet he couldn't sense its location.
"Familiar, yet I don't know where from"
Fang Chen fell into deep thought, the knowledge of a sixth-rank alchemist flashing through his mind.
This sixth-rank alchemist's knowledge is not only profound in the way of alchemy, but he also has a deep understanding of the efficacy of medicinal herbs and other materials.
At this moment, Fang Chen listed out all the possibilities that could lead to such a situation.
He quickly came to a conclusion: this wasn't an illness, it was poison. trembled violently inside."The two forces harmonizing together were several times stronger than the full force of Sword Demon's right arm!"Not only that, the transformation of the Godly Sword Physiqu...
