Chapter 1092 - 1091: Elixir of Immortality
"Boss, my whole body hurts. Please take me to the hospital room first."Tang Rao realized the anesthesia was wearing off for Yan Wei, and now his whole body hurt.
"Chao Qi, are you sure all the cancer cells have been removed? Will it recur? Can you check again just in case?"
After sending Yan Wei to the ward, Tang Rao found Chao Qi. As long as Yan Wei was not discharged, Tang Rao couldn't relax.
"Of course. Besides me not trusting my skills, everyone else has to believe in them."
Chao Qi was very confident in his medical skills.
Yan Wei's recovery validated Chao Qi's boasts.
Nothing wrong there, Yan Wei recovered faster than typical cancer patients. He had such a good appetite these days that he could eat an entire chicken.
"Tang Rao, my idol, what do you need from me?"
With Yan Wei recovering well and ready for discharge, Tang Rao approached Chao Qi with the intent of developing such a skilled physician into an Immortal Pharmacist to stay in the Land of Immortals, at the Kao Shan Sect.
"Yan Wei can be discharged, so I must fulfill my promise and take you to the Land of Immortals."
Chao Qi thought there was something wrong with his ears.
Just days ago, Tang Rao criticized Chao Qi, and now he invited him to the Land of Immortals.
It seemed Tang Rao was a person who kept his word.
"Hehe, hehehehe."
Chao Qi eagerly set down his tools, removed his work clothes, and was ready to leave with Tang Rao immediately.
"Why so hasty? Without enough power, are you planning to swim across the endless sea?"
Tang Rao smacked Chao Qi.
"Let me tell you first, the Land of Immortals is ten times more dangerous than Blue Star. When you get there, you'd best stay at My Mountain Sect, where at least your safety can be guaranteed, and there's enough Heavenly Treasure for your use. However, if my sect brothers get sick, you must make Immortal Elixirs for them. Can you do that?"
Tang Rao laid down three rules for Chao Qi, who, upon hearing there was a place for him, was happier than anything. As for the tasks, he didn't mind doing them once he was up there.
"Alright, I agree."
Tang Rao nodded in satisfaction, "Alright then, find a place with a bath, and take off your clothes."
Huh?
Chao Qi instinctively covered his upper and lower parts.
"Is there such a rule to go up there?"
Chao Qi had never heard of such a twisted requirement.
"Bone Marrow Cleansing can increase your chances of ascension."
Tang Rao didn't have that kind of twisted hobby.
With Tang Rao's explanation, Chao Qi was reassured. In his life, he hadn't been with a woman yet, and if Tang Rao did anything first, the psychological shadow would last forever.
Chao Qi had his own private quarters in the research institute, with a bathtub in the room, making changing water for bathing very convenient.
After stripping down completely, Chao Qi jumped into the water. Tang Rao, being ruthless, threw in two Bone Marrow Cleansing Pills, which dissolved upon contact with water.
"Ah, Tang Rao, my idol, are you trying to kill me? I have no grievances or enmities with you."
Chao Qi wanted to jump out but had anticipated Chao Qi's reaction and held him down forcibly.
"During the Bone Marrow Cleansing, you will feel a fate worse than death, but endure it!"
Tang Rao had undergone the process twice and didn't feel life-threatening. As for Chao Qi, also a grown man, why fear the pain? Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on N()velFire.net
With no choice, Chao Qi submerged himself again, enduring the ant chewing-like agony.
A night of soaking later, Chao Qi emerged from exhaustion into high spirits, feeling victorious.
"Tang Rao, my idol, the water is clear now. Can I come out?"
"Come out."
Tang Rao spoke from a considerable distance away, for the stench was unbearable for him.
"Tang Rao, my idol, I feel years younger. These were all the residues in my body, and it truly stinks."
Chao Qi, as a doctor, was cautious about health more than anyone, but seeing so much sludge from his body made him doubt life.
"Hurry up and get out, make haste."
Xiao Yue had already sent numerous messages from Illusion City, claiming that if Tang Rao didn't return soon, those wanting to join the alliance would storm through the Kao Shan Sect.
Tang Rao initially thought it would suffice for small sects to join, but Uncle Zhou, Wen Guifu, and others wanted to join the alliance, and even other Great Sects were tempted, requesting entry.
In this situation, without Tang Rao's leadership, the Kao Shan Sect was indeed at risk of being breached.
After washing off the grime and changing clothes, Chao Qi followed Tang Rao out.
With the Secret Technique given by Wen Jinjin, enhancing power through Tang Rao, Chao Qi didn't even need to overcome a tribulation; a few hours before, he was at the Golden Core Stage, and within two hours, he advanced to a Nine-fold Immortal Monarch.
This was Tang Rao's limit, advancing a Great Realm so drastically; even Tang Rao found it somewhat overwhelming.
"Oh my, my meridians are so much thicker, and I feel as if my whole Dantian is empty, able to hold endless Immortal Energy."
Is the Dantian lacking Immortal Energy?
Tang Rao handed Chao Qi a Purple Crystal: "Absorb as much as you can until the Dantian is full."
Chao Qi had never seen a Purple Crystal and was unaware of its value. If he ever encountered it in the future, Tang Rao hoped Chao Qi wouldn't be too surprised.
"It's full."
Having absorbed the energy from the Purple Crystal, Chao Qi returned the remaining crystal to Tang Rao.
"What should I do now?"
Without experiencing the endless sea, although Tang Rao could come and go freely with a talisman, Chao Qi still needed to traverse the Nine Realms and Seventy-two Domains, or else he couldn't transmit across the endless sea's light.
"I'll take you."
Tang Rao entered Yan Wei's ward just as Yan Wei was waking up.
"Tang Rao, I thought I was going to die. With today's technology, cancer can be cured, so why do so many people still die?"
Yan Wei, having recovered, kept pondering this.
"The number of people who can cure diseases is limited, much like the number of people who can be leaders. How can a few treat tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands?"
Even if the technology is disclosed, no one can achieve technological sharing.
"Moreover, with such a large world population, some diseases are a good way to control population. Governments won't prevent the natural increase and decrease."
It was an epiphany for Yan Wei, realizing many things instantly.
"Tang Rao, when will you return to the Land of Immortals? If you delay, things up there will get out of hand."
"After checking on you, I'll leave."
"Well, after I'm discharged, I'll return to the Moon."
Up there was Yan Wei's career and Tang Rao's hope, and Yan Wei was not fighting alone.
"I'll quickly impart the ancient method to Chao Qi, for him to combine with human genes and research the Elixir of Immortality."
It was Tang Rao's dream from years ago, only now seeing a possibility of realization.
"Tang Rao, my idol, did you say the Elixir of Immortality?"
Can I?
Having studied cancer all his life, Chao Qi never researched the Elixir of Immortality.
"Of course, it's you. Who else could it be?"
