Unrivaled Medicine God

by <unknown>

  Ye Yuan knew that he picked up a treasure!

  With his knowledge and horizons, he naturally knew the extraordinariness of these words.

  Even the Spirit Bristle Nine Yang Divine Art was likely not as good when in front of these characters!

  Even if these characters were not the legendary Divine Script, it was also an existence which could cause a frenzy in the entire Divine Realm!

  Ye Yuan was certain that once somebody in the Divine Realm knew that he possessed these texts, they would tear his divine soul into shreds with any hesitation and use all kinds of methods to search it out from his sea of consciousness!

  Even if they could not understand the contents of these texts, just placing it inside the sea of consciousness and giving it a look every day would be tremendously helpful to martial artists.

  The maxim of Great Dao contained within these words might be able to . . . help lead martial artists towards the Deity Realm!

  It's the Deity Realm!

  Just by thinking of these two words, Ye Yuan could not stop his body from trembling a little!

  Which martial artist did not yearn for the Deity Realm?

  Even Ji Qingyun who had no interest in the Martial Path in his previous life fervently pursued that legendary Alchemy God Realm!

  To want to become an Alchemy God, first, one's divine soul must step into the Deity Realm!

  Without a deity level divine soul, how could one possibly refine out deity rank medicinal pills?

  Presently, Ye Yuan could leap ranks to refine medicinal pills because these pills were too low leveled. The requirements towards divine soul were not high.

  But as the level of the medicinal pill rose in tier, the difficulty of refining would also become increasingly difficult! Without the support of a powerful divine soul realm, it was impossible to refine them!

  If not for the sake of letting the divine soul undergo a transformation, Ye Yuan would not even be bothered to advance to the Divine King realm.

  The Deity Realm could absolutely drive all martial artists insane!

  Ye Yuan produced a series of conjectures about these golden texts.

  Firstly, could these golden texts be a soul cultivation method written using the Divine Script?

  Highly probable!

  That was because these texts could be used directly on the soul. Not only did it repair his damaged divine soul, it even nourished and strengthened his divine soul!

  Secondly, if one could completely comprehend these golden characters, did that mean that they could break through the chains of heaven and earth and gain access to that Deity Realm which enraptured all?

  Also possible!

  But Ye Yuan felt that it might not be so easy.

  The profundity of these golden texts could no longer be described using words. Even with Ye Yuan's peerless talent, he was unable to comprehend one in ten-thousandth of it.

  It was easier said than done to want to comprehend it thoroughly.

  Apart from this, the reason for the Deity Realm to dwindle to zero was unknown. But most likely, it was not as easy to take that step as mastering a set of cultivation law. Even if this set of cultivation law was a Deity Realm cultivation method!

  One hundred thousand years ago, all the Deity Realm powerhouses in the Divine Realm vanished overnight!

  Nobody knew where they went and nobody knew why they disappeared. But ever since then, the Divine Realm had never given birth to another Deity Realm powerhouse!

  Not just that, all the secrets involving the Deity Realm also seemed to have vanished overnight since then.

  One hundred thousand years had passed and time had buried even more secrets in oblivion.

  Today, nobody knew how to break through to the Deity Realm anymore.

  In these hundred thousand years, there had been countless dazzlingly shocking geniuses who wanted to try all sorts of means to smash the fetters. In the end, it all came to naught.

  There were even some unrivaled powerhouses who fell during midway, leaving behind infinite regrets.

  Ji Qingyun had once been hailed as the genius figure most likely to break through to becoming an Alchemy God. But even that was only everyone's flattery, or perhaps it was everyone's affirmation of him.

  Because nobody truly felt that he could genuinely break through to the Alchemy God realm.

  That was because this was a hundred thousand year shackle! Nobody could break it apart!

  While Ye Yuan's imaginations were running wild, that sheet of golden texts already completely entered Ye Yuan's sea of consciousness.

  Just as Ye Yuan heaved a sigh of relief, his entire being was like he got shocked by lightning. His divine soul also shuddered as tears started flowing out . . .

  Chapter 152. A Father's Love Is Akin to a Mountain |

  Inside Ye Yuan's sea of consciousness, two faint silhouettes stood as they faced each other.

  Ye Yuan looked at this kindly but big and tall figure as he wept bitterly.

  "I'm so stupid! I'm so stupid! I'm so stupid! I should have long thought of this! In this whole wide world, who would do all this for me except for you?"

  Ye Yuan's tears covered his face as his emotions were virtually crumbling.

  Ever since birth, Ye Yuan had always been calm and collected. He had never lost control of his emotions like this before.

  He had buried the hatred at the bottom of his heart all along and placed all of his energy on cultivation. He only hoped to be able to charge back to the Divine Realm one day and kill that traitor!

  But this time around, facing this person, he could no longer keep his cool.

  This was the father who raised him, taught him alchemy, and taught him cultivation: the most powerful Alchemy Emperor in the Divine Realm, Ji Zhengyang!

  A man would not shed tears easily unless his heart was broken!

  Ji Zhengyang had an amiable appearance and did not develop a baleful aura from being murdered by that traitor. His gaze toward Ye Yuan was filled with tender love.

  Ji Zhengyang smiled kindly and said, "Yun-er, to be able to see you reincarnate and get a new lease on life, Father is very comforted. Has all been well?"

  "Good . . . Good. . . Everything has been good for this child. I just often miss Father very much." Ye Yuan choked.

  "Haha, what's the point of missing a dead person? Since you have a new identity, a new life, you should go and live that new life. Don't wallow in the past. The Medicine King Hall is already the past. Things that had happened, just let them be," Ji Zhengyang smiled and said very nonchalantly.

  "How can I? Father's debt of gratitude for raising me up, even if Yun-er is ground to dust, I wouldn't dare to forget! And that traitor, how can I dispel my grinding hatred if I don't tear his corpse to shreds?! Yun-er dare not forget the scene of Father's death! With heaven's grace, I, Ji Qingyun came back to life. How can I be considered human if I don't avenge this enmity?"

  Ji Zhengyang stretched out an illusionary hand and lightly caressed Ye Yuan's head like the past.

  Except, the current Ji Zhengyang was a remnant soul without a corporeal body. How could he touch Ye Yuan?

  However, Ji Zhengyang did not seem to mind this. Although his hand passed through Ye Yuan and did not touch anything, his face still revealed a satisfied smile.

  Seeing this scene, Ye Yuan felt like a knife was twisting in his heart.

  "Oh Yun-er, you reviving is not some heaven's blessing. It's father who used a divine soul secret art to send you to the Lower Realms. But father did not send you to the Lower Realms to hope for you spend your days living in hatred and be blinded by hatred. That way, you would become a machine for revenge. That's not the outcome I wish to see!" Ji Zhengyang sighed and said.

  Ye Yuan trembled, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.

  Him reincarnating was actually due to father using a great arcane ability? How . . . How was this possible?

  However, Ye Yuan suddenly thought of something and immediately said agitatedly, "Father
, since you have this kind of powers, did you also arrange yourself to reincarnate? Where did you reincarnate? I . . . I'm going to find you!"

  Ji Zhengyang smiled and said, "You're overthinking it, Yun-er. Ji Canglan schemed for such a long time, how could he give Father a chance for my divine soul to escape? Back then, Father already expended all my effort to send you away. It was only because he underestimated Father's strength that I could give you a slim chance of survival. At that time, my divine soul was almost entirely pulverized by him. It was at an extremely frail and weak state, but it did not dissipate. It was merely because his divine soul realm could not detect my presence. Hence, I concealed within the void and waited until he was killing you to execute an almighty deception secret art to make him think that your soul already dissipated. Then my remnant soul brought your divine soul to shuttle through the void and enter the Lower Realms."

  Only now did Ye Yuan knew that his reincarnation was not accidental, but a feeble thread of hope sought out for him by Ji Zhengyang risking the complete exhaustion of his divine soul.

  Ji Zhengyang described it easily, but Ye Yuan could feel the peril back then!

  Ji Canglan's divine soul realm was not low, and it was absolutely impossible for him to not discover a remnant soul. Ji Zhengyang had to outsmart Ji Canglan's probing and go into hiding, and he also needed to execute the secret art to make Ji Canglan think that Ye Yuan was already dead. Then he shattered the void to bring Ye Yuan to the Lower Realms.

  This process was an extremely huge drain on the divine soul.

  If not to save him, Ji Zhengyang completely had the ability to escape alone!

  With Ji Zhengyang's divine soul realm, reincarnating was not something hard.

  However, Ji Zhengyang did not do so. Instead, he did everything he could to leave this thin thread of hope for him!

  This was the choice made by a father before he died!

  Such a father's love akin to mountains and oceans, how should Ye Yuan repay it?

  He had no chance to!

  If he could, Ye Yuan would rather that the person who died was him!

  But Ye Yuan knew that his father's remnant soul could not hold on much longer.

  This farewell would be forever!

  "Father, I . . ." When Ji Zhengyang finished talking, Ye Yuan was already choking through sobs.

  No one knew a man better than his own father. Ji Zhengyang had never doubted his son's filial piety. Hence, he smiled and said, "Yun-er, Father did not tell you all these to make you think about revenge and whatnot. I only wish for you to know that Father only hope you will live on well and not become a machine seeking revenge."

  "But . . . But Ji Canglan is so treacherous. Are we going to let things go just like this?" Ye Yuan asked very unwillingly.

  Ji Zhengyang shook his head and said, "Father did not mean that. I also know I can't stop your vengeance. You have your memories of your previous life. Ascending to the Divine Realm in the future is a certainty. You'll also meet Ji Canglan sooner or later. But father does not wish for you to be completely clouded by hatred. What's the difference between the such of you and a walking corpse? If you really kill Ji Canglan, then your life would completely lose meaning. At that time, you'll also lose yourself, and your cultivation realm will no longer advance too. Yun-er, you have to halt your footsteps to pay attention to the people around you. Don't let down their expectations of you. You . . . are no longer Ji Qingyun now!"

  Ye Yuan's mind trembled. Images of Ye Hang, Ren Hongling, Lu-er, Nanfeng Ruoqing, Nanfeng Zhirou, Huyan Yon, Tang Yu, involuntarily appeared inside his head.

  That's right. I'm no longer Ji Qingyun anymore! I'm currently Ye Yuan!

  I have a family, teachers, and friends!

  Ye Yuan sucked in a deep breath and nodded solemnly. "Father, this child understands! Be at ease, I'm still your son, Ji Qingyun! However, I'm also Ye Hang and Ren Hongling's son, Ye Yuan! I . . . won't disappoint you all!"

  Ji Zhengyang had a smile in his eyes. Clearly, he was very pleased with his son.

  In fact, he had always been very pleased with his son ever since his birth!

  Even though they were separated by life and death today, it was enough for him to know that he was living on well.

  "Haha, when has my Yun-er ever disappointed me? However, you have to promise father, in the future when you return to the Divine Realm, you have to act within your capability. Never forcefully do things. While Ji Canglan might be powerful, it's impossible for him to overturn the Medicine King Hall alone. There's definitely an even more powerful person behind him!" Ji Zhengyang warned him.

  Ye Yuan nodded and said, "Relax Father. This Child knows what to do! Father, this Child will definitely step into the Deity Realm in this lifetime and attain the long-cherished wish from our previous life!"

  Chapter 153. Medicine God's Soul Canon! |

  Seeing Ye Yuan mention the Deity Realm, a yearning look also appeared on Ji Zhengyang's face.

  "Deity Realm? That's truly a long-cherished wish! Yun-er, Father believes that you can crack this hundred thousand year mystery and step into the Deity Realm!"

  Ji Zhengyang chose to believe Ye Yuan's wildly rampant words when he heard it without any hesitation at all.

  "Father, you can actually send this child down to the Lower Realms to reincarnate. Just what realm did your divine soul reach?" Ye Yuan voiced out the query in his heart.

  Ye Yuan's previous life's divine soul was also very powerful. Yet, he was unable to achieve reincarnation; let alone talked about resurrecting other people.

  Therefore, he was very curious just how strong Father was, to actually let him resurrect!

  Ji Zhengyang smiled and said, "As long as you properly study the Medicine God's Soul Canon, with your talent and perception, reaching my level is not something hard!"

  "Medicine God's Soul Canon? Could it be those golden characters that entered my sea of consciousness?" Ye Yuan asked in amazement.

  "That's right! Father's divine soul realm subsequently soared fiercely due to the effects of studying the Medicine God's Soul Canon daily."

  "So that's how it is! No wonder Father can refine a half-step divine pill. So it's actually due to obtaining such a mystical arcane canon! Could it be that Father's divine soul really reached the legendary half-step Deity Realm?" Ye Yuan was incomparably shocked in his heart.

  Ji Zhengyang shook his head and said with a smile, "What half-step divine pill? That's all concocted by Ji Canglan. That medicinal pill was at most slightly stronger than peak Tier 9 medicinal pills. How can it be worthy of being called a half-step divine pill? As for divine soul realm, I'm still very far away from half-step Deity Realm! If I reached the half-step Deity Realm, how could Ji Canglan have the opportunity to lay hands on me? However, the more I understand the Medicine God's Soul Canon, the more I feel that the Deity Realm is vague and abstruse!"

  Ye Yuan was also formerly at Divine King realm. He could naturally sense the mythical and illusory allure of the Deity Realm.

  But hearing Ji Zhengyang say that, he felt that the future would be riddled with difficulties.

  This Medicine God's Soul Canon was so mystical, and it was actually unable to help Father step foot into the Deity Realm?

  "Father, where did you get this Medicine God's Soul Canon from? Why have I never heard of it before?" Ye Yuan asked curiously.

  "Father acquired this Medicine God's Soul Canon from the Godsfall Mountain Range. But this Medicine God's Soul Canon is only an incomplete canon. To this date, I also don't know its origins. When I obtained it, it was only a tattered book, very inconspicuous. But when I used divine sense to inspect it, these golden characters actually automatically imprinted within my divine soul. I was also unable to retrieve it. I could only study it every day, all the way until my divine soul realm had some breakthrough, then only I was barely able to control these golden characters," Ji Zhengyang explained.

  "It's actually the Godsfall Mountain Range! No wonder! Roughly ten years ago
or so before Father died, you joined hands with numerous Divine King powerhouses to barge into the Godfall Mountain Range together. I'm afraid that the Medicine God's Soul Canon was obtained during then, right?" Ye Yuan had a look of realization.

  Divine King experts were indeed pinnacle existences in the Divine Realm. However, it was not like they could travel freely anywhere around the world.

  In the Divine Realm, there were some forbidden places. Even if Divine King experts entered, just a moment of carelessness and there would be the risk of perishing!

  The Godsfall Mountain Range was one of them!

  As the name suggests, a place where even Deity Realm powerhouses had to perish, what did Divine King experts count for?

  Of course, there was another saying about the Godsfall Mountain Range. Countless eons ago, an earth-shattering great war took place in that place. Those participating in the great war were all Deity Realm powerhouses! In that battle, many Deity Realm experts fell. Hence, that place was later called the Godsfall Mountain Range.

  But too much time had passed. As for which saying was true, it could no longer be determined.

  Only one thing was certain, that was the Godfall Mountain Range was an extremely perilous place but also a place with tremendous lucky chances!

  This Medicine God's Soul Canon might have been a soul cultivation method left behind by some Deity Realm expert!

  Ji Zhengyang nodded and said, "That's right, it was obtained back then. You have also seen the Medicine God's Soul Canon and should understand its allure. I was also unable to grasp these golden characters back then, so I temporarily did not tell you. Later on, when I planned to impart you the Medicine God's Soul Canon, that unexpected incident happened. Sigh . . . Truly fate makes a fool out of men! With your talent, if you were given several hundred years to comprehend the Medicine God's Soul Canon, you might really achieve Half-Deity Realm!
