The sound of the banging angered Bill. He opened the door, only to find everyone from the Guild of Eternal Life blocking the way.Some of them attempted to rush in but were stopped by the bodyguards in the room."What are you trying to do? What murderer? Do you know where you are?Bloomington Hotel belonged to Bill's Sangrea Group.Every bad incident in his hotel would feel like a slap in the face.A burly man charged forward, knocking down two bodyguards and yelling angrily, "Hand over that old man. He killed our professor. We want revenge!"Marilyn was stunned when she heard that. Even though she had severed ties with Kaynes, he was still her teacher. Marilyn quickly stood up and asked, "Arthur, what happened to the professor?"The burly man was Arthur. He looked at Marilyn and said viciously, "Was I not clear? The professor is dead. That old man killed him!"Arthur pointed at Archibald. When the Guild of Eternal Life members saw Archibald, they began to shout."We tried to
Chad examined Kaynes' condition and concluded that it resembled death from a heart attack.It was clear that Kaynes did not struggle before his death. His face did not show any signs of pain, even though his mouth was wide open.The results of Chad's pulse examination confirmed that.Furthermore, Chad could point out that Kaynes' heart attack was brought on by anger."Charlatans! Are you trying to tell us that the professor is still alive?!" Arthur remarked bitterly after witnessing the scene. Then he glared at Marilyn.It made Marilyn lower her head. She had not expected anything like that to happen.Marilyn hoped Chad would say Kaynes was not dead yet.However, Arthur cursed Marilyn viciously, saying, "It's all because of people like you. Otherwise, the professor would not have died! You barbarians are not qualified to learn modern medicine!"Chad let go of his hand. He gave Arthur a disgusted look before shaking his head."You were just playing tricks! I thought you would b
"Oh, God! This witchcraft is too terrifying! They've turned the professor into a demon!"Someone shouted in the room, and members of the Guild of Eternal Life began to flee."That's so scary! These people are demons. He used magic to control the corpse!"After they fled outside, they trembled as they stood outside the door and looked inside.Arthur was still on the ground, agonizing in pain from being locked. However, when he heard that Kaynes had returned to life, he stopped wailing and looked over in surprise, his face pale.Arthur suddenly began to babble like a madman. "Professor, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to make you angry! I just wanted to graduate early. I didn't expect you to die. Oh, God! This is my fault. I deserve to go to hell!"Everyone looked at Arthur, stunned by his statement.Arthur was trembling in fear. The pain from the locking, as well as the shock of Kaynes regaining consciousness, had completely taken him by surprise.Chad entered a state of focus as so
They looked at Kaynes in horror as if he was a monster.Those people thought the dead would never return to life again.However, in some cases, the human heart stopped pumping for an extended period and still survived.Most of those cases were misdiagnosed due to technical errors.It was known as a medical miracle in Western medicine to conceal their mistakes.However, Kaynes did rise from the dead."Is Professor Kaynes still human?""I don't know. He must have sold his soul to Satan and returned to life!""He's now a slave to the devil. He must be!"Kaynes was displeased as he listened to their discussion.He wanted to say something but did not know where to start.Kaynes felt helpless when he compared Magical Therapeutics to modern medicine.He knew little about Magical Therapeutics, but it brought the dead back to life. Could modern medicine do the same?Kaynes' belief had been shaken. He started to have doubts about modern medicine that he once had faith in.He secret
Morgan had been cautious because his father was the mayor.He did not want to cause any problems for his father because of himself and his mother.Before Stella could say anything, he rejected Ayo's request."Sorry, we don't know you. I don't think there's anything to talk about!"Morgan then pulled his mother away, but Ayo came prepared. She laughed and said, "We can heal your mother. Is that not allowed, too?"Unexpectedly, Morgan spoke without turning around, "My mother is fine now!"Ayo was confused and watched as Morgan and Stella walked away.However, she remained vigilant to prevent the two of them from being kidnapped at the end of the street.Then, Ayo told Shuten, who stood behind her, "Follow them and find out where they live.""Got it!" Shuten said. He waved his hand toward a dark corner behind him. Then, a group of men who appeared to be passers-by followed him.Stella asked Morgan, "Why did that woman come to us?""I don't know. Maybe she wanted to look for Dad
Chad then entered the shop while Archibald closed the door.The smile on Ayo's face faded as the door closed.She received a call from Matilda, which annoyed her further.Matilda described the incident in which she requested help from Mr. Hawthorne from Shotham but was turned down, and she had given up hope on Templer Road.After being rejected twice and receiving bad news from Matilda, Ayo lost her patience.She told Shuten coldly, "It's a pity Templer Road is not haunted."Then she went back to her car. Shuten replied with a cold smirk, "You're right. The sorcerer from the Neuf Chrys Club will be here tomorrow. Ghosts and spirits will roam Templer Roads!"Chad was in the Hall of Herbs when Morgan called him."Old friend, thanks for healing my mother. I wanted to wait to say goodbye to you before leaving. I didn't expect you to return so late. So we left."Chad sighed and chuckled. "It's okay. I was tied up today. We'll meet up for drinks one day!"Morgan laughed. "Sure! Spe
Chad went to the door and saw an MPV parked in front of Sammie Blanco's shop.There was a label written on the car—Sable Media. The commotion was started by a bald man with dragons and tigers tattooed all over his body.Clearly, Sammie was not at home. She was not dubbed a helicopter parent in vain.If she were at home and saw her daughter being bullied, she would have made a scene.There was blood on the corner of Coco's mouth, and one of them had pulled her hair. She looked extremely pathetic."Stop!"Chad did not hesitate and shouted.Baldie, the baldhead, glared at Chad and spat."Pft! Who the hell are you? Why don't you mind your own business? Get lost!"Immediately, two men walked toward Chad.One of them held a baseball bat as if he was about to beat Chad up.Chad frowned. He was shocked by those men's arrogance.He shouted, "Archie!""I'm right here!"Archibald charged up to the two men in a flash.The two men cried out in pain.Baldie was terrified. He pointed
He caught glimpses of massaging and dry needling in Archibald's movement.He achieved effects similar to dry needling and massage by employing unique techniques such as locking and unlocking.After Baldie had recovered, he screamed, "Fuck you! Do you know who I am? How dare you attack us? Why don't you ask around who's Baldie from Bloomington—"He stopped speaking abruptly. He saw Chad crush his mobile phone effortlessly.That was the most recent Fruitie 15, which he purchased for more than 3,000 dollars.Baldie was heartbroken and terrified at the same time.After all, would a man who could crush a mobile phone with his bare hand be a good person?Baldie changed his tone and smiled, saying, "My brother, sorry I didn't know better. Please have mercy on me. I was just following orders."Chad threw the broken phone away and calmly asked, "Deliver the message that I'll keep Coco with me. They can come to the Hall of Herbs at Templer Road if they want her."Baldie nearly peed his
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. Chad saw hundreds of children with autism there!Before entering the
