The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1115

…

"Hey, you!" Ting Koming shouted while pointing at Xin Ja who is already walking away.

At this time Xin Ja suddenly noticed that the students suddenly surrounded him and the guide.

The guide is someone who is known on the runemaster campus, so everyone immediately recognizes him.

"Ting Koming… You are a new freshman, right? You've been in the runemaster class for a few more months now… I guess you know who I am…" the guide of Xin Ja said with a scowl.

Everyone in the surrounding did not say a word and just lowered their heads.

In fact, they just subconsciously acted on impulse when Ting Koming pointed at the two. They now realized that a senior is actually with that young lad, so they feel a bit awkward now.

"This… I…"

"You are a good seed… But hopefully, you continue to practice diligently and not use these simple tricks to gain attention… Get back to practicing…" the guide said as he turns to Xin Ja and signaled for him to follow.

In fact, out of all the seniors on the campus, only this young man is this lax when it comes to his lower classmen. He is already considered the kindest seniors around.

As those in the senior years of the academy gained too much prestige with their rune accomplishments, they tend to be more aloft and did not mingle with the lower freshmen. They would rather do experiments and practice their concentration than bother with other people.

But of course, there are those that have already reached their bottlenecks and would want to try other things like the senior who is guiding Xin Ja.

They soon arrive inside a rustic building that looks like a 16th-century old Chinese castle. The whole place looks like something that is made of the forest as the walls and roofs of the building are covered with green vines and leaves.

Xin Ja soon enters a room with a big door made of dark brown wood called the Antor Tree. Antor trees are common in the forest within Ogden town. Although it is a common tree, yet it is famous for being a very strong and sturdy tree.

Once it is manufactured and assembled into anything, it would boost that object's defensive property because as the wood hardens it would turn into a very sturdy material. It is very sturdy that not even a 5th level Ki fighter would be able to break it.

As they open the door, the two of them soon met two familiar figures inside.

"Ma… Master Wang? And… and Divine Doctor Ba?" Xin Ja muttered while looking at the two old men.

"Master Wang!… He is here…" the senior said as he bowed his head.

He then left while nodding at Xin Ja.

"Ahh… My unfaithful disciple has come at last…" Master Wang said with a frown.

Xin Ja sheepishly smile as he knew that he did something that has changed a lot of the plans for him by his master. He knew that his master wanted him to enter the runemaster's occupation, but it was just his spontaneous thought that made him choose the alchemy occupation.

"I'm sorry Master Wang… I… I wanted to find you, but I did not know where you are… so…" Xin Ja said while scratching his head.

Of course, he knew where to find the old man. He is just too shy to face his master.

"Haha… Then as a punishment, what should I… will ask for you to do… Hmmm…" Master Wang said while caressing his beard.

"Haha… Well, not only you but also me. I am also his master you know." Divine Doctor Ba said while drinking a sip of tea from his cup.

"Arr… Sorry, too master Ba… I…" Xin Ja feels a bit distressed about how to explain himself.

Suddenly… as if regaining his composure, Xin Ja heaves a deep sigh.

"Masters… I am an unworthy disciple. I hope that you can forgive me. I wanted to learn alchemy for a while and had not a chance before… but now that I had a chance, I seem to suddenly think of learning it… So… please forgive me." Xin Ja said while cupping his hand.

When the two old men heard this… they look a bit stunned and then suddenly chuckled.

It was just that reason… after all, they have already thought about it for a while and also arrives at the same thought. The little guy is far too curious about many things and they knew he wanted to do a lot of things since the little guy is still young.

"Alright… alright don't sweat it. I already understand… We are just teasing you… So… How are your alchemy classes? Fun?" Divine Doctor Ba said.

He is not that affected because Xin Ja has not been his student for a long time. He just gave him some books as he has seen the boy's prowess when it comes to the human body. He hopes that the boy would also become a great doctor like any other of his chosen paths.

"Yes, Divine Doctor Ba… I have learned a lot about potions…" Xin Ja said.

"Good… Have you read the books I gave you?" Divine Doctor Ba followed up.

"Yes… I have read everything. I also learned many things from them…"

"Good!… Good!... Well, anyway… the reason why you are here is not only because we wanted to see you. I have a patient who… needed your unique knowledge in using needles." Divine Doctor Ba said as he takes out a parcel.

"The patient cannot come… but I hope that you can help…" he said as he lay the parcel on the table.

Xin Ja looks at it and then his expression change.

"Multiple fractures… internal bleeding. This… is the person still alive? If he takes a potion, his wounds would clot, but the problem is… the condition of his healing body. If this lingers then the shape would be permanent…" Xin Ja muttered as he analyze the human anatomy picture in the parcel.

He is a bit stunned at the way things are drawn. It was like something that came from his lessons in his unique vision.

"Master… how… is this…" Xin Ja said while looking at the parcel curiously.

"This is called the transference parcel. Doctor Ba would inject his Ki in here and picture in his mind what he wanted to be seen in the paper… It's temporary and needed a lot of concentration… So it is hard to use." Master Wang explained.

"Oh, I see…" Xin Ja thought as he suddenly looks at the parcel and begin studying it.

The tiny rune array on the side made him squint and magnified his view of the rune array. He then began to scrutinize it one by one.

"Do you want to study the parcel?" Master Wang suddenly said with a smile.

"Wait… Let him figure the condition of the patient first…" Divine Doctor Ba interrupted with a frown.

"Alright… alright, I'm sorry… I'm just curious on how this lad would change this thing…" Master Wang said with a smile.

"Ahh… Divine Doctor Ba… The patient… If he already has taken a potion, then even my needles would not work in fixing his internal body. We have to… operate on him and then realign everything. Just like what you have written in one of your journals. Book 5 of it, on page 37… you wrote in there about realigning and repairing wrong medical practice resulting to impairment and disability…" Xin Ja explained.

When Divine Doctor Ba heard this, he frowns for a bit.

The reason for this is that what he has written in that book is just his own theory and has not done it in actual practice. How could he convince a person who has already healed his wounds to be cut by a knife?

No one would volunteer and he would be deemed as a quack by others.

But upon hearing the words of the young man, he seems to have some thoughts about it.

"Do you really think it is possible? How about the repercussion? The possibility of further aggravating the wound…" Divine Doctor Ba asked while contemplating.

"Doctor Ba… If we do not have the potions, then that would be a possibility. However, we have potions and the only remaining problem is how we can monitor the vitals of the person…" Xin Ja said while looking at the two old men.

"What do you mean?"

"Ki sense… I could not use it yet. But I know the two of you could." Xin Ja said with a smile.

They both nodded their heads.

Doctor Ba might be only at level 5, but the reason why he is called the divine doctor is that he discovered the use of Ki sense at a lower level. Ki sense would only appear when one reaches the 10th level. And with Doctor Ba being able to use it at the 5th level is already considered a miracle. He is a genius among thousands.

"I wanted to help… I'm also curious about this…" Xin Ja said with an awkward smile on his young face.

The two old men look at each other and as if thinking the same thing, they nodded their heads.

"Xin Ja… before that. You will have to take an oath.." Wang Changling suddenly said with a serious expression.
