When the helicopter landed, plainclothes officers immediately surrounded it. Another wave of plainclothes officers began to frisk those on the scene.

Zach was so shocked that he nearly collapsed.

Only super dignitaries, such as cabinet ministers and national pillars, could create such a scene.

Ordinary cabinet members could not do that without prior notice.

Even top military leaders, including the God of War, could not act without prior notice like that.

Toby was even more surprised and exclaimed, "Who on earth is coming?"

On the other hand, Winston had a strong feeling that someone at the pinnacle of martial arts was aboard the helicopter.

That person recognized Winston as an earthbound immortal the moment the helicopter passed over Temple Road.

Winston could tell that the person had focused on him, and the plainclothes officers who appeared unexpectedly appeared to treat Winston as the primary target of their surveillance.

    What bothered Winston the most was that the great medicine—Gisella—whom he had his eye on, had such a background, implying that she was untouchable.Sheldon accompanied Lawson into the shop and said, "Today, Sir Lawson is here as a witness. Today, I will take Gisella Keating as my disciple, teaching her everything I've learned about medicine. She can accept responsibility for Sir Lawson's health in the next five years."A collective gasp was heard as soon as those words were spoken!It meant Gisella would be Lawson's personal doctor in five years. Even though it would take five years, Sheldon's guarantee sealed the deal.Lawson beckoned to Gisella. "Gisella, come here and let me look at you."Gisella approached nervously and was held by Lawson to be examined."You've suffered for years! Your grandfather was my personal doctor for over 30 years, and he saved my life several times. I've let his descendants suffer in this world. It's entirely my fault, but it will never happen again

    Bang!"Damn it!" Winston slammed the steering wheel down and drove away.On the way, Winston called Monte and said, "Monkey, stop all actions."Monte said, "I also received the same message from the organization. Take care of yourself, and don't contact me unless absolutely necessary."Meanwhile, several military helicopters landed on Temple Road, and wheeled armored vehicles also drove in.Peak Institute and Cloth Alley were transformed into military-restricted areas, with no one permitted to approach.Chad wanted to ask what was going on, but he was stopped by soldiers with guns."Stop! No one is allowed to approach the restricted area. Those who don't comply will be executed on the spot!"Everyone at the scene was in a state of panic, unable to understand what was happening.Furthermore, they were puzzled when they tried to question the big shots they knew.Those people were somewhat panicked and fled that troublesome place.However, they silently warned themselves that t

    What were the criteria for the danger assessments?Who exactly was threatening him, Matilda, and Gisella, and evaluating them in that manner?Chad wondered if anyone had tampered with the list.Chad was surprised to learn Matilda was not biologically related to Celine and Logan.However, Chad became even more perplexed when he realized Lawson had personally handed him that list.[Dark Phoenix, female, real name... Background... Currently... Group CEO, outstanding abilities, awakened to level one. Evaluation: Danger level undetermined. Danger rating: undetermined.]"She's also on the list, but..."Chad saw Dark Phoenix's name, but her real name and background were obscured.Chad tried hard but failed to remove the cover.Furthermore, Chad noticed that Dark Phoenix's profile said awakened!She was one of the few awakened people on the list who remained marked in red!However, what did the word—awakened—actually mean?Chad tried hard to recall his previous conversation with La

    "I'll be damned! What are you doing? Cease fire, everyone!"The gunfire came to a halt amid the officer's furious shouts. The officer scolded the two soldiers who had fired."What are you blindly shooting at? Is anyone there?" Chad was taken aback by the officer's reprimand and turned to face the direction of the gunfire. There was only an old tree riddled with bullet holes, with no sign of anyone."Sergeant, we saw a man and a woman dressed in robes. They looked very old.""Yeah! I told them to stop and not approach, but they didn't seem to listen and continued walking toward us."The sergeant slapped one of them angrily, saying, "Nonsense, you are both seeing things!"Finally, he angrily pointed to the moon in the sky, saying, "There's a full moon tonight; even without streetlights, there shouldn't be any mistakes."Chad subconsciously looked at the sky outside—a full moon hung high, round and bright."Don't be afraid. I'll protect you." Weldon's voice came from the backyard,

    "I made a few dishes you like, but I'm not sure if they suit your taste." Matilda opened the lunchbox and revealed several delicate vegetarian dishes, all of which Chad enjoyed."How thoughtful of you!" Chad said absentmindedly, his expression grim."What's wrong? Are you feeling ill?" Matilda went straight for Chad's forehead, and the entire action seemed quite natural."Looks like you don't have a fever.""I'm fine. Did you see a full moon in the sky just now?"Matilda was puzzled when she heard Chad's question. "I did. The moon was quite large tonight. What's wrong?""How can there be a full moon today when it should only be a half moon? Don't you find it strange?"Matilda was taken aback by Chad's words, but she waved her hand and said, "It's strange, but it's only a moon! Perhaps it's a peculiar astronomical phenomenon. Anyway, the experts will be out shortly to explain it."Matilda coaxed Chad to sit down, glancing at Gisella with a hint of provocation.However, Chad had

    "They don't have shadows. Are they ghosts?""Let's forget about that. Do we shoot or not?!""As if! Go report this!"One of the soldiers sneaked away to file a report.They had been looking at the two young men dressed in robes in front of the Hall of Herbs.As the two soldiers stated, they had no shadows.The light from the Hall of Herbs passed through their bodies without obstruction.They walked past the Hall of Herbs' door as if they were ghosts.The soldier who remained was so stunned that his eyes were about to pop out, and his heart felt like it would jump out of his throat.He wanted to shout but was so nervous that he appeared to have forgotten how to speak.His throat moved but made no noise.In the end, the soldier forgot how to breathe and fainted.He fainted, and a yellow talisman appeared on his back.The night breeze blew through, and the talisman turned to dust.The two young men stood in the shop, facing the backyard.The fat one smiled and said, "Those

    Weldon opened the door and walked out of the shop, already seeing the ambulance from a distance.Temple Road was completely empty at that time. Weldon looked at the night sky and said softly, "Two dogs with short memories."As soon as the ambulance arrived, Weldon resumed his simpleton demeanor and led the medics to the backyard.Gisella and Weldon locked the door after the two patients entered the ambulance.After they left, Temple Road became quiet again."Are they gone?""They're gone.""I was so scared. I can't believe there's something like that here.""Yes! It was too surprising."The night breeze blew past the empty Temple Road, and if one listened closely, they could faintly hear it in the wind.The atmosphere at the distant army camp stationed at Cloth Alley was extremely tense.The sergeant held a military communications device and reported on what had occurred on Temple Road.Earlier, a soldier had died unexpectedly, and the medic was conducting an autopsy.Howe

    The nurse rushed to change the patient's IV drip, passing through those things without pausing.It was like passing through a hologram of light and shadow, with no discomfort on either side.Chad was stunned, believing it was an illusion, but Gisella also saw it.Could only certain people see those beings?Ghosts were said to be visible only to those who had opened their spiritual eyes.Chad did not believe those were ghosts. For thousands of years, the Mystic arts had refused to acknowledge the existence of ghosts.Mystics believed that after death, people existed as souls or spirits.The Mystics also referred to souls and spirits as spirits.Furthermore, spirits lacked the ability to harm the living and would fade over time.What piqued Chad's interest was why those things were gathered outside Matilda's ward."Miss, breakfast is here! Oh, Mr. Jennings, you've woken up. That's excellent!" Weldon returned with breakfast, grinning foolishly as he walked toward them.The mome

    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.
