Chapter 999: Chapter 973: The Fifth Master
This life can be said to be the most beautiful and happy life for Tangyu. In terms of fa, he is world-renowned; the na of Divine Doctor Tang is enough to awe the entire dical community.
One world-renowned dical conundrum after another was conquered by him, developing various traditional Chinese dicines that made cancer, AIDS, heart disease, and even ALS beco easily treatable, wholly freeing humanity from the agony of terminal illnesses. According to incomplete statistics, due to Tangyu’s contributions, at least ten million fewer people die around the world each year.
The Nobel Prize was awarded to Tangyu in dicine three tis, making him the first and only person in history to win the Nobel Prize three tis.
Tangyu’s na has spread to almost every corner of the world.
But Tangyu himself retired early with Lin Feifei and the others to the Ghost Valley, living an immortal-like life, unconcerned with the world’s changes.
However, without cultivating immortality, a human’s lifespan is rely a few decades, unable to withstand the cleansing of ti. Mountains and seas change, and tis change. Watching his friends die one by one around him, Tangyu was powerless. Even though he was called an immortal on earth, he had no way to resurrect the dead and make life everlasting.
Master Ghost Doctor died, Lin Guotai died, Old Master Zhang died…
One by one they died, making Tangyu witness one human tragedy after another, the joys and sorrows, but yet helpless.
In the hero’s grave year, looking back on life, it’s full of sighs and reflections.
The won around him also slowly died of old age. Each one departing from Tangyu was Doctor Xiao, then Sister Min, then Mo Xiaoqing, then Huangfu Jing, then Song Qingyu…
One by one, they couldn’t resist ti, falling into the long river, forever only in human mory. Although Tangyu had many descendants, his most beloved won died one by one, leaving him only to accompany himself with alcohol, exceedingly saddened and in a state of extre dejection.
Not long after, Guo Momo died, Lin Feifei also died, all the won left Tangyu, leaving only him, an old lonely man, spending days lying in bed, his mind filled with mories.
In a confused state, although surrounded by many people, Tangyu could neither see nor hear them. Only scenes flashed through his mind.
“Seeking the longevity path, the quest for immortality, where lies immortality, where is the path of the immortals? Nowhere to seek, nowhere to seek, only to continue aging, ending life just so. Enough, living this life is enough, too tired. Ten lifetis, it’s ti to end. Death, death might just be a release.” Tangyu gently closed his heavy eyes, his life rapidly fading away.
He was dying, ten lifetis of reincarnation, he wanted to end it. Too tired, truly too tired.
Nothing mattered to him anymore, nothing at all mattered.
The only thing he now wanted was to be together with Lin Feifei and the others after death, being together would be enough.
In Tangyu’s mind, the figures of Lin Feifei and the others seed to appear, not in their old age, but in their youthful form.
“Feifei, I co to be with you all forevermore.” Tangyu smiled, a final illuminating smile.
But right after he spoke, Lin Feifei and the others seed upset and left one by one, quickly disappearing entirely.
“Don’t go——” Tangyu wanted to shout, but felt as if sothing blocked his throat, unable to make a sound.
“Why?”
“No——”
Suddenly, from deep within Tangyu’s heart, an unknown powerful faith sprang forth: “I can’t just resign myself to fate; I can’t just die like this; I can’t succumb to depression. Ten lifetis of reincarnation, nearly a thousand years, extrely long and everlasting, countless tribulations. But I endured them all, just for my original dream. To seek longevity, to find the immortal path, only by reaching such a state can I say I live freely, eternally with Feifei and the others, without the pain of separation by life and death.”
“No matter how many tribulations, they shall not defeat . Ten cycles of suffering, even if it happens again, I should stay true to myself. None of this is real, all are illusions. Break, break, break them all.” Tangyu uttered a hysterical roar, an unknown force erupting from within.
Rumble!!!
Tangyu’s eyelids forcefully opened, consciousness rapidly returning, his eyes opening, and the scene falling back into Tangyu’s sight. Before him was the golden walled Stone Chamber, familiar scenes, familiar figures, Senior Shi Que standing there.
“Senior Shi Que.” Tangyu sighed with inexplicable emotions, taking a breath before bowing to Senior Shi Que.
Indeed, everything was an illusion, and he was still in Shi Que Palace, still undergoing the trial. Such a trial had left Tangyu in a cold sweat. It was too real, too cruel, using ten lifetis to temper a person’s willpower. Anyone would go mad under such tornt.
Shi Que looked at Tangyu, nodded, and said, “Congratulations, Tangyu, you are now my fifth owner. However, you currently lack the ability for to call you ‘master.’ Only when you can truly possess Shi Que Palace, will I address you as master.”
“Phew—”
Tangyu let out a sigh of relief. Hearing Shi Que’s words, he was certain that he had passed the trial.
At last, he had endured. Ten years—it was terrifying just to think about it. He had only lived for over twenty years, but this trial allowed him to truly experience ten lifetis.
Upon reflection, Tangyu still felt that he had gained a lot. At least this tempering over ten lifetis had brought him countless benefits.
Shi Que continued, “Tangyu, surviving the ten lifetis of trials brings you endless benefits. Perhaps you cannot feel them yet, but gradually you will. These advantages cannot be bought with any amount of money, nor can they be sought after. This ten-year cycle was the greatest training for your mindset, and passing it elevates your ntal state to an extrely high level. It will ensure you encounter almost no bottlenecks in your future cultivation.”
“Moreover, your innate comprehension will greatly improve, and no matter what you cultivate, your speed will far surpass others. Passing the ten-lifeti trial will at least elevate your overall talent to the peak level of your cultivation world. This has laid a solid foundation for you, offering enormous assistance in your future.”
Tangyu nodded. Even without Shi Que’s words, he could feel it himself.
Indeed, the benefits were imnse.
It’s equivalent to having practiced for ten lifetis, spending a thousand years perfecting his mindset. Imagine how great those benefits must be?
“Now Tangyu, kneel and bow three tis, and you will be a disciple under my first master, the ‘Lord of the Void,'” Shi Que said.
Tangyu imdiately knelt, bowed three tis heavily, and said, “Master Lord of the Void above, disciple Tangyu pays respect to Master!”
After the three bows, Shi Que allowed Tangyu to rise. “Now you are the third disciple of the Lord of the Void. When you have the strength in the future, there will be many tasks for you. But for now, you are far too weak; your only task is to cultivate diligently. However, you are not yet fit to cultivate the arts of the Lord of the Void. You practice the Yin Yang Dao Foundation, and I have chosen a cultivation technique suitable for this path for you to practice. Additionally, I will pass on a potent secret technique and allow you to choose a life-saving treasure.”
“With these three things, if you are not as skilled and are killed by soone else, you can only bla bad fortune. Once you reach the Golden Core Stage, I will give you another set of resources. From now on, every ti you improve by one realm, you can co see , and I will present you with more resources. Your foundational resources will certainly surpass others, but whether you can truly grow is your own destiny. If you can’t grow and die, so be it.”
“You cannot take Shi Que Palace with you for now, but once you beco a Zifu cultivator and establish your Zifu, you can carry Shi Que Palace with you and place it in your Zifu.”
Tangyu smirked slightly. Hearing that he could not carry Shi Que Palace, he felt a little disappointed.
But then again, even if he could carry it, he couldn’t expect Shi Que to help him. Shi Que could disregard his life or death, so there’s no point in carrying it. The key is the benefits it provides him.
With a flick of the hand, Shi Que produced an ancient book, with large characters on the cover: “Yin Yang Life and Death Art!”
Shi Que handed this cultivation technique to Tangyu, saying, “This technique should be the best fit for your cultivation. The cultivation techniques of your Yanshan Sect are too weak. This technique will cause a slight mutation in your Yin Yang Dao Foundation, building it stronger than anyone else’s. A strong foundation ans your base is strong. It greatly aids your future advancent in strength. Cultivate this technique well.”
Receiving the cultivation technique, Tangyu’s heart was overjoyed. Just holding it, he felt a strong desire surge within him. Just by the look, he knew this technique was extraordinary.
Although Tangyu had created his “Bright Moon Sword Art,” it was still far from complete. The “Immortal Nine Heavens Great Technique” was good too, but he still felt it wasn’t satisfactory when practicing it.
The “Yin Yang Life and Death Art” naturally thrilled Tangyu. Since it was carefully picked for him by Shi Que, it was undoubtedly world-shattering.
With another movent of his hand, Shi Que brought forth another secret to, inscribed with four golden characters: “Undying Nine Transformations.”
Shi Que said, “This is a body-refining secret art, extrely powerful. There are nine transformations in total, each a life and death. If you reach the Great Perfection Realm of the Nine Transformations, you can be immortal. Of course, that’s just a saying; achieving Vajra Indestructible ans your physical body’s strength rivals a Daoist Artifact. When that ti cos, it will be exceedingly difficult for others to kill you. Your path will be fraught with endless danger and obstacles, so I’ve painstakingly chosen a body-refining secret art to practice, aiming to minimize your chances of fall.”
“After waiting millions of years, I truly wish not to continue waiting. I hope you can grow strong.”
Receiving the “Undying Nine Transformations,” Tangyu nodded heavily and said, “Thank you, Senior Shi Que. Tangyu will strive diligently not to disappoint your high hopes.”
