I Have Medicine

Chapter 311 - Blood Transformation Heaven Lord

Gu Zuo shook his head and said: “My luck was pretty good. That’s all. It goes without saying that my chances of winning or losing were fifty-fifty. If that side’s person was just a bit stronger, then I wouldn’t have won.”

Hu Chang’an smiled: “Brother Ah Zuo is too modest.”

Hu Changbi and Hu Changfeng’s impressions of Gu Zuo were currently better than ever. Originally, they had some reservations in the beginning, but all of it had now been thrown beyond the topmost clouds. When they recalled that their family’s eldest brother had placed his hopes on the other party, they felt even more that meeting this person was their greatest fortune — Their family’s eldest brother frequently collected people on his return-trips, but this time was undoubtedly the most reliable and beneficial one.

Following this, no one lingered outside for long. Everything was packed away, and they hurriedly returned. Gu Zuo was asked to swiftly refine the medicine to awaken the Myriad Leaking Body, which would allow Hu Chang’an to smoothly become a martial artist with extraordinary gifts. From this point on, his position as the young lord would be secure!

Sitting cross-legged above a blood pond was a silver-haired, middle-aged man. His expression was grave and stern, and his sharp facial features seemed to have been carved by sabers and chiseled by hatchets. He was brimming with masculinity.

At this moment, he opened his eyes. Then, a mass of bloody light suddenly erupted from deep within his pupils! This bloody light traced along the curvature of his eyes and extended outwards. A sheet of blood markings was quickly interwoven along the sides of his face. It instantly gave him an aura of wickedness. His appearance no longer looked that righteous.

Tianheng followed the Blood Transformation Palace Master, and observed the proper courtesies: “Disciple Gongyi Tianheng pays his respects to this Heaven Lord.”

Originally, that silver-haired, middle-aged man possessed a pair of blood-red pupils. At this time, he glanced at Tianheng, and he appeared to see through Tianheng amid the depths of that gaze. It was quite terrifying.

Tianheng wore a smiling expression. Although he felt boundless pressure closing in on himself, he still endured it. He also didn’t show the slightest of peculiarities.

A good while later, the silver-haired, middle-aged man, Blood Transformation Heaven Lord, faintly nodded his head: “Pretty good. You deserve to be called an all-star prodigy. Truly, you can’t be compared to the mundane.”

Meanwhile, the Blood Transformation Palace Master candidly smiled and said: “It was easy for this all-star prodigy to choose our Blood Transformation Palace Hall. It has given us a huge rise in prestige. Father, you can’t treat him unfairly. You need to give him some benefits.”

Presently, Blood Transformation Heaven Lord had become much more friendly, but then he gave a reproachful laugh: “You have just become his master, and you’re focused solely on your apprentice. Have you forgotten about your old father?”

The Blood Transformation Palace Master smiled and replied: “Could it be that father doesn’t value this apprentice of mine?”

Blood Transformation Heaven Lord said exasperatedly: “If I had come across this child outside, perhaps you would’ve had one more junior sect brother instead of an apprentice.”

The Blood Transformation Palace Master laughed boisterously. He splayed his fingers, and extended his palms out: “From this, it can be seen that this child’s luck is surprisingly good. Father, you absolutely can’t be stingy.”

This conversation between father and son naturally entered Tianheng’s ears. It made his heart stir. He was slightly surprised.

As it turned out, the Blood Transformation Palace Hall’s Heaven Lord and palace master had a father-son relationship? This was a rare sight.

Tianheng was naturally unaware. This kind of father was a Heaven Lord, and the son could become a palace master. Within all of the Ten Ultimates Palace Halls, only the Blood Transformation Palace Hall had such a generation. Among the other palace masters, the majority had passed their titles down from master to apprentice. It was to the point that not even all of them were masters and apprentices. Some merely shared the relationship of practicing within the same palace hall.

The reason was quite simple. Not just anyone could break through to the Cosmic Realm. The vast majority of Heaven Lords had enormous clans, but there wasn’t a guarantee that a clan could raise a prodigy with the aptitudes of becoming another Heaven Lord within a specific timeframe — At the very least, a palace master needed to have the potential of becoming a Heaven Lord. In addition, one had to distinguish themselves among the other numerous powerhouses who had Heaven Lord potential. All aspects had to be sufficiently outstanding.

After all, a tiger father might have dog sons. What were the odds of the present Heaven Lord and present palace master having a father-son relationship? However, it was precisely because the Blood Transformation Palace Hall’s Heaven Lord and palace master had this relationship that the resources it could manage were a cut above what other palace halls could mobilize!

— En, who allowed this household to have such a good father?

Moreover, the strength of the Blood Transformation Palace Master was extremely mighty. Currently, he was already a high Royal Realm. Perhaps, he could advance to a peak Royal Realm at any time. Compared to the peak Royal Realm of the Absolute Thunder Palace Hall, he was just slightly inferior.

Tianheng had chosen the Blood Transformation Palace Hall, which was truly quite reasonable.

Originally, he thought that the gaps between the Ten Ultimates Palace Halls weren’t that big. At the very least, when he displayed his own aptitudes, the discrepancies between their treatments towards him wouldn’t have been very large. So naturally, he chose the one that was the most useful to him. But now, he discovered that it was somewhat better than what he had imagined. Of course, he was even more satisfied.

After the father and son finished their conversation, they looked at Tianheng.

Blood Transformation Heaven Lord was still in the middle of the blood pond, but he extended a hand, and made a swiping motion.

In the blink of an eye, three small boxes appeared in front of Tianheng.

On the side, the Blood Transformation Palace Master urged: “Apprentice, why don’t you open them and take a look? If father is being stingy, then as your teacher, I shall demand more good things on your behalf.”

Tianheng smiled and said: “When a senior bestows a gift, the disciple will only be joyful. How can I be picky?”

After he finished talking, Tianheng took those small boxes. He started to open the first one.

Just when he opened it, he saw a swath of twinkling and glittering light inside. Those dazzling rays of light would practically leave a person dazed as it pricked one’s eyes with a burst of pain.

Tianheng’s eyelids fluttered, and he quickly suppressed any tears. Soon after, he saw it clearly. The things inside this little box were numerous spirit crystals. They were densely-packed, and piled up in heaps.

The box wasn’t large, so it was reasonable to say that one couldn’t pack away so many spirit crystals. Thus, the space within had clearly been enlarged, and the spirit crystals were contained like grains of sand.

The Blood Transformation Palace Master smiled and said: “A million spirit crystals. These can also be used during the initial stages.”

Tianheng said: “Many thanks, grandmaster.”

Blood Transformation Heaven Lord faintly nodded his head.

Tianheng immediately went to look at the second small box.

This time around, he prepared himself as he opened it. The interior was also a swath of brilliance. Compared to the one just before, these rays of light were even more dazzling. Similarly, there were numerous crystals, but these weren’t spirit crystals. Instead, they were profound crystals!

There was no need for the Blood Transformation Palace Master to explain. Tianheng already recognized them. The number of profound crystals was approximately one thousand.

Between these two types of crystals, the exchange rate was one profound crystal for one hundred spirit crystals. However, when all was said and done, profound crystals were of a higher level. Under normal circumstances, no one would make such an exchange.

Concerning a martial artist who was going to break through to the Immortal Realm, those million spirit crystals were obviously start-up funds, and the thousand profound crystals were used for cultivation.

Tianheng expressed his thanks once again.

Finally, it was the third small box.

Inside this box were two items.

The first one was a pearl. Tianheng recognized this thing at a glance. Unexpectedly, it was a Life-Substitution Beast Pearl! He just so happened to possess such a pearl as well.

Just then, the Blood Transformation Palace Master said: “This is a mid grade Life-Substitution Beast Pearl. After using a drop of blood to recognize a master, any Immortal Realm martial artist can use it to preserve their life. Apprentice, although you’re still Xiantian right now, you’ll soon make a breakthrough. After that, remember to have this object recognize you as its master, and keep it safe. It’s of great use!”

Tianheng hurriedly said: “This disciple will bear this in mind.”

His thoughts turned, and he somewhat understood. Perhaps, the pearl that Gu Zuo previously gave him was a low grade Life-Substitution Beast Pearl since it could only preserve the life of a martial artist below the Immortal Realm.

The Blood Transformation Palace Master continued: “While this object is rare, it isn’t something that can’t be encountered. In the future, if this apprentice goes out adventuring and has the opportunity to come across this thing, then store away a few more pearls. You can bestow them upon your retainers, or you can resist your enemies. If you temper this object a few times, it can transform into a clone of yourself. When running into a powerful enemy, it can go out to fight on your behalf at a critical juncture. It will strive to give you a chance to escape with your life!”

Tianheng felt reverence: “Many thanks, grandmaster. Many thanks, master.”

Previously, that system wasn’t willing to tell anything to his little pharmacist. It only said that Gu Zuo’s scope of authority was insufficient. Now, it seemed the life substitution also had this kind of use for body doubles.

And as for the other item, it was a jade-like, blood hand.

This object looked strange, but the feeling it gave one was actually quite upright. It didn’t have any sinister or evil sensations.

The Blood Transformation Palace Master furrowed his brows: “It’s unexpectedly this thing?” Then, he smiled at Tianheng, “Sealed within this object is a single strike of my father’s strongest Heavenly Blood Palm. Even if a Heaven Lord wants to harm you, this can unleash a move equivalent to that of my father. Treat this as a trump card. You mustn’t use it casually.”

Upon seeing this, Tianheng expressed his thanks again.

Soon after, he properly put these things away.

Blood Transformation Heaven Lord was indeed considerate and thoughtful. With money to spend during the initial stages and life-saving trump cards, if Tianheng wasn’t unlucky, then his small life wouldn’t have any problems. There also certainly wouldn’t be any issues with his development in the beginning.

Tianheng’s heart warmed slightly.

Although this was for the sake of his own development and apprenticeship, his master looked upon him kindly due to his potential. But both sides were discerning people, after all. The senior’s considerations were attentive, so he’d ought to be grateful, too.

Currently, Blood Transformation Heaven Lord was in secluded cultivation. He was called out by his beloved son to meet his grand-apprentice, so he also didn’t intend to say much.

The Blood Transformation Palace Master led Tianheng to bid farewell, and then received him into the Blood Transformation Palace Hall.

Following which, the palace master allowed Tianheng to sit on the right side of the main seat. He instructed the attendants to summon the other disciples.

The Blood Transformation Palace Master amiably said: “Your teacher doesn’t have many disciples. There’s only eight people, so this apprentice’s rank is ninth. Try to get along with your senior sect brothers and sisters.”

Tianheng naturally heard this, and agreed readily: “Yes, master.”

The palace master smiled: “However, this apprentice doesn’t need to be too polite. As a prodigy, you are the most crucial person within my Blood Transformation Palace Hall’s younger generation. Those seniors of yours will have to make accommodations for you. In the future, if anyone doesn’t treat you seriously and bullies you, or if they’re envious that you have more resources and secretly act against you, then tell your teacher. As your teacher, I will discipline them.”

Tianheng showed a trace of appreciation on his face: “Many thanks for your concern, master.”

The Blood Transformation Palace Master nodded his head, and said with satisfaction: “Originally, most prodigies have peculiar temperaments. You don’t need to deliberately conceal it. Just follow your heart.”

He continued: “Your teacher won’t personally get involved in the affairs of the younger generations, but if it’s a member of the same generation, don’t think that it’ll be unfavorable against you! If there’s one person, then your teacher will kill them. If there’s crowd, then your teacher will kill them, too! Even if this teacher’s methods aren’t enough, my father can take action. Apprentice, you only need to do your best to cultivate and raise your strength!”

This kind of undisguised support, this kind of unhesitating protection…

Tianheng spoke unhurriedly: “This disciple thanks master.”

While speaking, many voices could be heard from outside. The qi emissions of some powerful people were getting closer.

The remaining eight disciples of the Blood Transformation Palace Master had already arrived.
