The drug is meant to heal the most severe damage to the body. Even someone that has only one breath in them can be brought back from the brink of death and saved. The drug is so powerful that it only left the barest scars on his body. It also had enough energy to help his body transform for the eighth time. That's why it had cost nearly a thousand gold coins to buy. After his eighth transformation, he lost control of his body as usual, but it wasn't as severe as the previous times. It is because his upper limit of strength had increased from 14 to 16. It was just a 14.3% increase in strength, not 100% or 50% that he used to experience when he was very young. His control over his body had also become better over the years. So this increase of 14.3% didn't affect him much. The impact was so small that even his mother, who had known him for many years, didn't know that he had grown stronger. He still had to train his body, though. Training will not only let him gain full control of his body but will also allow his body to grow stronger. With revenge on his mind, strength is something he is in dire need of. He trained with his mother for three weeks. Then he returned to Agate City for revenge. Lady Vena tried to convince him to stay at home and focus on cultivation, but he didn't want to stay home. It wasn't just because of revenge. He had a lot of things he had to do in Agate City. It had been 2 months and one week since his near-death experience. A lot had happened in his absence. His dojo had scattered in his absence. He had stopped receiving karma from it and from giving out bread. Word had spread that he was dead.

Every influential person wanted to get their hands on his last products. The price soared to 200 gold coins per bottle. It was absurd. It made him consider faking his death in the future.. The other thing that can be considered good is that gangs have reared their ugly heads again. They have stopped being secretive and have began taking action publicly. This is not good for others, but it is good for him. It meant that he can earn Karma from them. When he heard about it, he smiled and said to himself, "This time, I will be more secretive so as not to scare them away. It is when I am done killing all of them that I will tell everyone and reap the rewards of karma." He was in a building in the core of Agate City reading what passes for a newspaper. The building belongs to an information agency. It was the first place he went to when he returned. He had gone straight to an information agency in order to acquire information about Irvin. After describing what he wanted, he bought the newspaper to update himself on the events that happened in the city recently. The information couldn't help him find who he was looking for. There were many people called Irvin and that might not even be is real name. The man might have provided a fake name to lower his guard. But when he had described how he looked and what he was being investigated for, the attendant at the information agency was able to help him narrow down who he was looking for. What truly clinched it was his mention of the scar on Irvin's face. The scar was on his left cheek. It stretched down from his eye down to his lips. That scar was iconic. When it was combined with the investigation for murder, a certain man called Scarred Raven was determined to be the culprit. Arthur was reading the newspaper while the attendants were busy in the store searching for information about the Scarred Raven and putting it together in a small book for me. The newspaper helped him pass the time. It wasn't a large, thin material like the one he was familiar with in his past life. It was just a small book full of recent events. The most popular event is the regional sect examination that will be held this year. Everyone beneath the age of 24 can attend it as long as they haven't reached the second transformation. The tenth transformation of the first mortal coil is the limit of cultivation that participants of the examination are allowed to have. This is because sects want young seedlings that they can mold into what they want, not people who are already set in their ways. It is said that the method that someone uses to reach the second transformation is very important. It is so important that it will determine their chances of reaching the third transformation. So sects don't want faulty people. They want young, impressionable people. He learned a lot from the newspaper. One of them is that the younger someone is, the easier it will be for them to be accepted into a sect and the more appreciated they will be. It made him think to himself, "I should give it a try next time. By then, I should have finished my preparations. If I fail, I can try again in ten years." Not many people have two chances to participate in the regional sect examination. Of those few, not many of them are capable of passing the regional examination with just one of the chances. It will be an understatement to call him one in ten thousand. He is better than that because he doesn't just plan to simply pass, he also plans to get the highest qualifications so that he can get into the best sect and get the highest sponsorship. He also learned that many people had left Agate City for the location of the examination. One of them was Master Sky Claw of the Owl Claw dojo.
