Chapter 220: Chapter 219 [Apocalypse, Filled with Much-Anticipated Excitement][PS: Continuously praying for the people of Ya’an, Xiao Gou is in Chengdu which is very close to Ya’an. From time to time, the aftershocks are severe, shaking the house violently; it’s enough to drive someone insane, and the mental pressure is enormous. However, I will try my best to keep updates stable. Thank you all for your support!!!] "Well... let’s not, just take a good rest, we’ll have the chance to meet!" Ye Tianchen said with a smile to Murong Xin, indirectly rejecting her request for his phone number. Searᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Ye Tianchen didn’t feel much for Murong Xin; in fact, the two of them were strangers who, out of necessity, had to detoxify Murong Xin, which involved being completely naked, holding each other tightly, and even French kissing, even though all of this was to force out the Detoxification Herb and was done out of necessity. However, after all, Ye Tianchen was a man, a young and vigorous man, who couldn’t help but rise to the occasion. At that moment, Murong Xin’s face turned beet red, unable to look at Ye Tianchen, as if her naked, fair body had been draped with a layer of shyness, making both of them feel extremely awkward. After all, they were not boyfriend and girlfriend, and this was their first meeting, holding each other naked and even kissing—anyone would feel awkward and uncomfortable. Ye Tianchen was only trying to save Murong Xin and, one might say, to save Zhang Yide and Zhang Ruotong as well; otherwise, he would have nothing to do with Murong Xin, nor did he want to. Just as he had said to Murong Yudou, they were even now; he was someone who didn’t like too much trouble. "Then... then you remember, you must come to find me!" Murong Xin twinkled her beautiful eyes and said to Ye Tianchen with a smile. "Mhm!" Ye Tianchen nodded. Watching Murong Xin and Murong Yudou, the grandparents followed by the escorts of the two great Chinese War Kings, Cang Lang and Yan Long, leaving the Zhang family courtyard, Ye Tianchen yawned. Hei Mian also left with Cang Lang’s car. Now, only Zhang Yide, Zhang Ruotong, and Ye Tianchen remained in the Zhang family courtyard. Ye Tianchen glanced at Zhang Yide; his main reason for coming this time was to ask Zhang Yide to treat Xiao Ya’s mother, whose condition was urgent and could not be delayed any longer. Luckily, Zhang Yide truly was a Divine Doctor Ghost Hand, which made Ye Tianchen feel very fortunate; otherwise, he wouldn’t have known how to find Zhang Yide. "Master Zhang, everything is settled now, we can fulfill our promises between us, can’t we?" Ye Tianchen said to Zhang Yide with a smile. "Don’t worry, I, Zhang Yide, always keep my word. You saved my grandchild and me, so I’ll accompany you to see that patient you mentioned. However, it can’t be tonight. Old arms, old legs, they can’t afford to be hurt. Let’s rest tonight and go tomorrow!" Zhang Yide nodded and spoke. "What? Really? A big man like me staying in the same room with Ruotong doesn’t seem quite right?" Ye Tianchen glanced at Zhang Ruotong and joked. Zhang Ruotong’s cheeks flushed. As a girl in the prime of her teens, she couldn’t withstand Ye Tianchen’s teasing and was too embarrassed to speak. Zhang Yide glared fiercely at Ye Tianchen, wishing he could teach him a lesson if he weren’t injured. "Where is your mind wandering? Tonight, you’re sleeping in the same room with me!" Zhang Yide said sternly to Ye Tianchen. "What? No way? Elder Zhang, I have always been straight. Isn’t there a hotel nearby? I’d rather rough it out there for the night and then meet up with you in the morning!" Ye Tianchen exclaimed, quickly laughing it off. To his surprise, Zhang Yide completely ignored Ye Tianchen and walked toward a room nearby, leaving Ye Tianchen with these words. "Your wound hasn’t healed completely, and I’ve injected superpower into it. If you don’t want your entire left arm to blow off, you might consider not coming in!" That evening, Ye Tianchen could only stay overnight in the Zhang family. Fortunately, there were two small wooden beds in the same room with Zhang Yide; otherwise, it would have really been unbearable for Ye Tianchen, despite the notion of men sharing a room—had he ever seen a young, attractive man sharing a room with an old man nearing a hundred? Ye Tianchen entered the room and saw Zhang Yide sitting cross-legged, emitting strong superpower energy. However, this superpower energy didn’t carry a killing intent nor was it too intense; instead, it had a gentle aura, something Ye Tianchen had never felt before. Stretching lazily, Ye Tianchen walked over to the wooden bed opposite Zhang Yide, ready to lie down and sleep. Just at that moment, Zhang Yide suddenly opened his eyes, his complexion had noticeably reddened, seeming almost healed from the severe injuries sustained from his battle with Guitian Yilang, which greatly surprised Ye Tianchen. Healers with superpowers, generally speaking, do not possess strong offensive capabilities but have a remarkable self-healing ability, making them tough to defeat. Zhang Yide, not only excellent in medical skills, also mastered the Gold Element Superpower Strong Skill, making him an extremely formidable entity, not just in the present world but even in the apocalypse. "There are several streams of superpowers flowing within you. It seems you know many Superpower Skills, but if you cannot integrate and penetrate them, there is only one outcome for you, and that is to explode and die!" Zhang Yide, still sitting cross-legged on the bed, looked at Ye Tianchen and spoke calmly. "You figured all that out? Impressive, impressive!" Ye Tianchen chuckled in response. Although Ye Tianchen was laughing and talking with Zhang Yide, he inwardly admired him. Zhang Yide truly lived up to his reputation as the Divine Doctor Ghost Hand, having rapidly discovered the coexistence of multiple superpower energies within him. He was right, a slight misstep could lead to his whole body exploding. During the apocalypse, Ye Tianchen had also possessed multiple superpower energies simultaneously and knew several types of Superpower Strong Skills, making him a Peak Expert in the Divine-level Superpower Realm, much more formidable than ordinary experts of the Divine Level. This was the terrifying aspect of having multiple superpower energies existing together. However, anyone could imagine that when a person’s body harbors various energies, these energies might collide and ’fight’ each other inside the body, leading to explosions. Integrating several different strong energies is not an easy task, and amongst superpower users and Ancient Martial Sect experts, there were others who tried to do this. Superpower users often practice developing different types of Superpower Skills, while experts from Ancient Martial Sects try to master different Absolute Skills; the underlying principle is the same. Many experts, in pursuit of the greatest power, ultimately lead to their own doom. Zhang Yide spoke so as to caution Ye Tianchen that integrating different types of superpowers is extremely difficult. If he wasn’t careful, he would explode and die, leaving not even a corpse behind. In fact, Ye Tianchen was already somewhat aware of this. During the apocalypse, he could coexist with several different superpowers located in different parts of his viscera. That was possible because of the miraculous occurrences in the apocalypse, such as herbs that could extend one’s life, profound Cultivation Skills, and even secrets of Eternal Life coming to light. Thanks to these, Ye Tianchen was able to integrate and permeate several different superpowers, becoming a Peak Expert of the Divine Level Realm. However, this life was different; this body was not his own and fundamentally had some changes. Moreover, this era wasn’t suited for cultivation. The understanding of the Great Tao wasn’t as strong as during the apocalypse. When Ye Tianchen reached the King-level Superpower Realm, he had already sensed it; this era suppressed the Dao, making comprehending nature very difficult, which is also why prodigies seldom became Peak Experts. The cruel reality was laid out before Ye Tianchen; wanting to become an expert with multiple coexisting superpowers like during the apocalypse was extremely difficult. This was why, even after reaching the pinnacle of King Realm, he still struggled to break through. Beyond battling with experts and increasing his superpowers, what he needed was "enlightenment," understanding nature and the Dao, to truly advance further. "Whether we are superpower users or from the Ancient Martial Sects, in fact, we all walk different paths of cultivation. And no matter how things change, the path of cultivation ultimately seeks the greatest power, which invariably comes back to two words—Eternal Life!" Zhang Yide looked at Ye Tianchen with seemingly profound intentions as he spoke. "Eternal Life? Easier said than done. From ancient times to the present, I don’t know how many emperors, how many Supreme Strongs, in pursuit of the Longevity Skill, exhausted their lives without ever achieving it, not to mention in this era of technology. Eternal Life can only become a fancy thought in people’s minds, and speaking it aloud would only invite mockery!" Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but seriously respond to Zhang Yide. "That’s why these people can never achieve immortality; they’ve been brainwashed by society. Thus, they can absolutely never understand the essence of five thousand years of Chinese civilization," Zhang Yide replied with a slight smile. At that moment, Ye Tianchen suddenly felt that Zhang Yide had become somewhat mysterious, as they unexpectedly discussed the art of Longevity. The issue of Eternal Life was almost never brought up nowadays and wasn’t talked about casually; those who actively pursued it were none other than high-ranking emperors and Supreme Strongs of Ancient Martial Sects. Of course, in the apocalypse, a bizarre world mixing modern technological civilization with the mythological stories typical of fantasy and Taoist immortals, Eternal Life was the ultimate goal of all experts. It was a world seeking immortals, a world beyond modern thinking, capable of overturning one’s cognition and providing unexpected and compelling excitement. "Forget it, I don’t want to discuss whether or not immortality is possible with you. After you help me cure that patient tomorrow, we’ll be even!" Ye Tianchen yawned and lay down on the bed, ready to sleep. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it on Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
