As the chaos of Temple Road broke out, Chad was at the Hall of Herbs, utterly unaware of what was happening.

At the time, Chad was practicing alchemy in a secret chamber beneath the Hall of Herbs.

He used meditation to unlock his body's potential, increasing the temperature just enough to refine the medicinal ingredients in the furnace.

It was an extremely difficult task!

After all, he could not raise his hands' temperature too much. Instead, he had to use his hands to sense the furnace and integrate it into his body for it to reach a specific high temperature.

Chad's hands held the Divine Ware furnace, and smoke curled within it as the ingredients dissolved.

Upon closer inspection, the furnace was already glowing red like a heated iron.

However, there was no change outside of the furnace. There were even water droplets that had condensed on top.

Chad had not performed alchemy in ten years, and he appeared to be struggling.

Chad's body was also covered in layers of blackish-br

    "Sir… Sir Lawson… Hello…"A drop of cold sweat slid down his cheek as he spoke.Zach never imagined that simply relocating Temple Road would rile up the great Sir Lawson.Zach's mind was blank. He did not hear Lawson's words very clearly. He only repeated after the man. "Yes… Yes… I understand, I know… I'll definitely do that…"After hanging up, Zach could not help but slam his fist on the table."Why did Matilda and that woman from Saffronesia want the land on Temple Road?! They've caused me so much trouble, damn it!"Zach, enraged, called Matilda.He vented his rage on Matilda, scolding her for an hour before finally calming down.Matilda did not dare to retort the entire time and ended up in tears at the end of the call.After hanging up, Matilda called Ayo to discuss finding a new location.However, Ayo insisted on Temple Road and assured Matilda she would handle it.In truth, Ayo was concerned as well, having received some calls.They were all from her Hacniane partner

    The Hall of Herbs was home to six old men at the time—the Hart family's father and son duo, the Pulmano brothers from Tatum Supreme Group, Toby, and Darren, who had always stayed there.Miles was already in his 50s, but the King of the Entertainment Industry kept himself in good shape and looked to be in his 30s, so he could not be considered old.However, Esther was concerned that the Hall of Herbs was rapidly becoming a nursing home.When she heard the shouting outside, she got up and went to the door, saying, "Young man, what's your business with Chad?"Morgan bowed respectfully and said, "My mother has a strange illness, and she has seen various famous doctors for over two years, but she hasn't gotten any better. I wanted to ask Chad for help."Esther looked at Morgan's mother, who was thin and middle-aged.Morgan's mother was wrapped up tightly, as if she was afraid of the cold, even though it was not particularly cold."Come in for now!"Esther let them in without thinkin

    As he spoke, the old man smiled at Chad and said, "The towering tree lives for thousands of years. So, when refining the Elixir of Life, using the wood element can help the pill achieve its highest grade!"Sure enough, the Journey through Mountains and Streams painting contained a Mystic Healing inheritance!The old man's words made Chad realize that his Mindfulness Breathing Meditation was of the wood element, best suited for creating the Elixir of Life!So, Chad was lucky enough to hit the jackpot and create the best Elixir of Life!Chad followed the old man and the boy through that painted world, temporarily forgetting about time.The old man showed the boy where to find various spiritual herbs in the mountains.He also showed the boy how to plant and cultivate them after harvesting.In the world of painting, a day seemed like a hundred years. Chad appeared to be completely immersed in the painting for what seemed like years.Chad accompanied the old man in the mountains, wh

    "Morgan, what are you doing here?" Chad was surprised to see his high school friend in the Hall of Herbs.Morgan asked hesitantly, "Chad, I know you are skilled in medicine. Can you help my mother?""Oh, this young man and his mother have been here for a day. His mother's illness is complicated." Esther looked at Chad with concern as she explained Morgan's mother's condition."She was locked?" Chad looked at Morgan's mother in disbelief, completely shocked.Esther voiced her suspicions: "Yes! It is indeed a locking. I haven't seen one in more than 20 years."Morgan looked puzzled as he glanced at his mother and asked, "What is locking? Is it that serious?"Chad nodded thoughtfully and said, "It's incredibly serious. Locking is a rare and vicious technique that is extremely difficult to deal with."Archibald walked out of his room at that point, stunned, and said, "There are still people who know how to do locking nowadays?"Chad did not recognize Archibald.

    It resulted in numerous accidents for Mystic Pavillion members in later years that they could not prevent.If Roggan was willing to submit to the Mystic Pavilion, he could use their members to protect themselves.However, Chad could not agree so easily, so he said, "Help me do three things. After you do that, Roggan will be a part of the Mystic Pavillion! The first is to unlock her."Archibald was overjoyed to hear that. He stood up immediately and exclaimed, "It's a deal!"Then, Archibald approached Morgan's mother and said, "Excuse me, I need to check what kind of ice lock you have been subjected to."Archibald grabbed her arm and pressed his right and left index fingers against it. Then, he moved toward the shoulder.At the same time, he said, "Unlocking and locking use specific circulatory points in a person's body. It is one of Roggan's eight skills.As Archibald's hand moved around Morgan's mother's limbs, his eyes widened dramatically."Now, I will unlock you—here!"As

    In the car, Ayo listened quietly as Shuten explained.Lumigen Pharmaceutical came to Hacniane two years prior and chose the Hawthorne family of Shotham as their partner.However, just as the cooperation was about to be finalized, Ryan Chase appeared, putting all of Lumigen's efforts to waste.Jouzen was in charge of the negotiations at the time, and after they failed, he secretly found Ryan's wife to retaliate.Jouzen had intended to wait for a while before pressuring Ryan to agree to the collaboration between Lumigen Pharmaceutical and the Hawthorne family on the pretext of his wife's illness. Still, no one expected Jouzen to die in a car accident the next day.Shuten looked extremely serious when he mentioned the car accident. "That car accident was very suspicious, with many points of doubt, but the police concluded that it was just an ordinary accident. The case was settled with money."Ayo was deep in thought. She had gone to Hacniane to undertake a mission from Saffronesia'

    Archibald thought for a moment before he said, "It was the Walt family from Century City!"Chad immediately thought of Harry and that warlock—Robert.After all, warlocks were notorious for seeking vengeance for the slightest offense, and Robert would not let Chad off so easily.Chad glanced at Harry, who was still in the backyard with Darren.Darren knew so many insider secrets. There was no way the Walts would let him go so easily!Perhaps…Chad suddenly realized something and grabbed Archibald's wrist.Chad relaxed after noticing that Archibald's pulse was steady and showed no signs of poisoning.It was just strange. Did Harry send Archibald there to steal medicine?"I understand. We can talk about this another time. Come with me for now."Chad believed that whatever Harry had planned was unlikely to pose a significant threat.Archibald followed Chad outside and asked, "Chief, where are we going?""Bloomington Tower!"Chad was heading to Bloomington Tower to deliver the

    Even though Chad was aware of Temple Road's demolition, he had no idea that Bellenuite and Lumigen were behind it.So, when confronted with Matilda's angry rebuke, Chad maintained his innocence. "When did I ever oppose you?"Chad's denial enraged Matilda even more.Meanwhile, Justin became particularly hostile when he saw Chad.Justin felt he had nearly exposed Chad during the auction.Nonetheless, he was kicked out of the venue and chastised by his family's elders.In addition, his family was already dissatisfied with him because of the medical team from Europe.If Matilda had not given him so much money to persuade Kaynes to check up on Clinton, he might have been kicked out of the family."Aren't you targeting Matilda? Weren't you causing trouble when Matilda went to the Hart family for financing? Didn't you cause trouble when Matilda and I went to see Mr. Hawthorne? You caused trouble at Matilda's banquet. And weren't you also causing trouble at the Bellenuite and Lumigen a

    As Chad sat in meditation on Decaying Peaks, a faint, glowing white immortal crown slowly appeared behind his head. When that immortal crown manifested, a quake occurred everywhere outside Mount Causabour. The frequency of those tremors was extremely high, and everyone could clearly feel them. The vast area they covered included the entire Hacniane. It was as if some ancient seal in the vast sky had been triggered.Chad opened his eyes in shock amid his breakthrough, realizing that the impending heavenly punishment seemed to be directed at him and the millions of mystical beings beneath Mount Causabour.Suddenly, a thunderous voice erupted in the sky, as loud as a bolt of lightning:"Cut off the road to the heavens, seal the underworld; a red banner halts a million immortals, and a red star exterminates ghosts and demons!"Sever Yggdrasil, raise the grand array; a handful of Evergrow blocks the celestial river, and the vast multiverse bows to humanity!"By decree, this is a real

    Sir Holt anxiously looked up at the sky as the tribulation clouds suddenly began to churn violently.Crack! Crack! Crack!At that moment, the first bolt of heavenly punishment finally struck.However, that bolt of divine lightning fell upon the mirage of the Mystic Archive, where it disappeared without a trace. The entire Mount Causabour shook a few times, and everyone could feel a soothing sensation within the mountain.Anyone who felt this would experience a surge of confidence deep within, and any discomfort they felt in their bodies seemed to improve significantly.On Decaying Peaks, that sensation was even more pronounced, and more and more people began to manifest the immortal crown behind their heads. In just a few minutes, nearly everyone on Decaying Peaks, hundreds of people in total, had an immortal crown appear behind them.That included Flynn and Harvey, who were sitting on the outskirts of Decaying Peaks. They, too, had immortal crowns appear behind their heads.How

    Sir Holt and Zayan looked up at the sky with expressionless faces, though their hearts were in turmoil. Within the rolling clouds, faint traces of multicolored light shimmered.As time passed, the colorful lights appeared more frequently, as if gradually consuming the clouds."Such intense ascension light—there must be tens of thousands ascending!""There are probably more. The latest statistics show that 264,777 people have entered Mount Causabour!""Over 260,000? How did so many people get here?"Zayan looked at Sir Holt in shock, and Sir Holt turned his gaze toward the winding mountain road leading into the area."There are still many more people outside trying to get in, but the place is already so crowded that they can't fit."Zayan looked with concern toward the entrance to the mountain. "Won't those stuck on the road cause a disturbance?""They won't!" Sir Holt said with certainty. "Unless they're fools, they've probably already started meditating where they are. Even if

    Among the 250,000 people, quite a few were not actually autistic patients. After sleeping for two full days, Chad woke up and realized that possibility. He carefully considered the potential issues that might arise during the process and decided to issue an announcement."The treatment will begin shortly. Non-autistic patients are advised to leave the Mount Causabour area to avoid unnecessary complications."That announcement was broadcast three times through loudspeakers positioned throughout Mount Causabour. Finally, the loudspeaker voice declared, "The treatment will officially begin in one hour!"At the same time, Chad made his way to the Decaying Peaks, the summit of Mount Causabour, where an over-century-old pavilion stood.Entering the pavilion, Chad sat down in a meditative position. Soon, he noticed a dense crowd gathering around the pavilion, all sitting in meditation poses around him.As Chad glanced over those people, he recognized several familiar faces. The people ar

    Mount Causabour Medical Center, built halfway up Mount Causabour, was a sizable palace-style complex with three courtyards. The center was constructed along the mountain's slope, extending all the way to the base of the Decaying Peaks. Flynn and Harvey were placed in the innermost courtyard, suggesting that their grandfather, Fenton Cooper, likely knew some inside information but had not shared it with his grandsons.On that day, the Hacniane Cabinet issued several announcements. First, they created separate legislation for ability users and cultivators to regulate their powers. Second, they planned to designate special zones in each city for ability users and Mystics, separating them from ordinary people. Lastly, they urgently introduced the Sixteen Temporary Rules for Ability Users and Mystic Practitioners to regulate their behavior.Those announcements seemed like they were aimed at restricting ability users, but in reality, they were meant to reassure ordinary people, ensurin

    A massive leap in the realm could bring unimaginable fortune to the dragon vein, potentially altering Hacniane's fate.That was also Chad's grand gift to the two elders, using the sudden surge in the dragon vein's power to help Hacniane avoid the impending catastrophe triggered by the nuclear explosion of the firmament.Earlier that day, through Chad's Clairvoyant Eye, he saw Kennington shrouded in a faint gray-black mist. Chad did not know what it was but felt it resembled Evergrow, yet not quite the same.However, Chad was certain that accidents would surely happen if ordinary people were exposed to it in large quantities. As a Mystic, he could already feel its effects on his body.At that moment, Sir Holt got into the car, looking at Chad with a solemn expression. "Kid, give me the bottom line!"After careful consideration, Chad laid out his thoughts. Upon hearing them, Sir Holt began to tremble. According to Chad, he would need to mobilize at least 100,000 troops to ensure the

    Having a Mystic Archive and unlocking a Mystic Archive were two different matters. Only a handful of people were recorded to have a Mystic Archive throughout history. There were only two earliest verifiable individuals with documented works still in existence.The first was Hugo Gerant, a renowned physician from an ancient empire, a practitioner of Mystic Therapeutics, and an alchemist. His surviving medical works include The Hundred Letters, Gerant's Emergency Treatments, and the famous Embracing Simplicity.After his death, several notable physicians throughout history have inadvertently inherited his Mystic Archive, but none have fully inherited it. It was said that Mystics knew the method to obtain Gerant's Mystic Archive a thousand years ago, but that knowledge had since been lost.The second individual is Damian Lotin, a figure from another ancient dynasty. He left behind many works, including one titled The Whisper of the Blue Plant.Aside from them, other people who possess

    Chad gave them a cold smile. "Extract the immortal bone to cure the illness.""No! Absolutely not! I won't allow it!""Me neither. There's no way we can let that happen!"The entire room erupted into panic. Some even tried to attack Chad, but they were quickly subdued.Chad looked at them and said, "Then tell me the truth.""I'll speak! I failed my tribulation and fell from the celestial realm. I used to have nine crowns, but now I'm down to five...""And me! I also fell from the celestial realm after failing my tribulation. Now I only have three crowns...""I disguised myself as one of the wounded soldiers and was brought here. After losing all my cultivation, I've since regained two crowns!""I was brought back from the firmament by my husband. After we arrived here, I lost all my cultivation and never practiced again. We had a child later, and he was perfectly normal, but I never expected my grandson to..."As those people spoke, Zayan and Sir Holt were stunned! Those peopl

    "You know the cause of the illness?"Zayan was shocked, almost in disbelief."Do you realize this child is the same age as you? Even your master examined him but couldn't find the cause!"Chad nodded and said, "But I do know, and I have a bold theory—that the cause of autism in all these children might be the same..."As he spoke, some thoughts suddenly flashed through Chad's mind, shocking even him, leading him to say, "And I suspect this might be related to the increasing number of ability users and cultivators over the past century!""Really?!"Zayan grabbed Chad's arm, hardly believing what he was hearing.However, Chad spoke with firm conviction, "It's very likely true, but I need to see more children with autism.""Wait here; I'll make arrangements right away!"Soon, Chad and his group arrived at the largest hospital in Kennington, the Ninth Military District Hospital, and Xyder was also brought along.
