The Urban Medical Martial Immortal
Chapter 16 - 16 16 Scapegoat

16: Chapter 16 Scapegoat?

16: Chapter 16 Scapegoat?

Is this a cultivation treasure technique?!

The sudden torrent of information startled Lin Tian.

Upon seeing the flickering golden characters in his mind, he immediately felt it was a cultivation method.

Indeed.

The text that had been suspended like a scroll now began to roll and flip before Lin Tian’s eyes.

As each line of characters swept past, Lin Tian was astonished to find that he had memorized all of the text as though it had been etched into his mind.

Moreover, Lin Tian had instantaneously understood the Nine-Turned and Three Lives Scripture, and furthermore, it was a comprehensive cultivation tome.

From the introductory chapter, it was evident that this was a divine scripture surpassing even the Immortal Level.

In the Cultivation World, cultivation techniques and treasure techniques were classified into Basic, Spirit Level, Daoist Level, Immortal Level, and other ranks.

Below the Immortal Level, each grade was subdivided from low to high into Yellow Grade, Xuan-rank, Earth Rank, and Heaven Rank.

As for Immortal Level techniques, they could only be cultivated by those who had successfully entered the Immortal Domain and achieved the state of Void Immortal.

Moreover, Immortal Level techniques were categorized into Ancient, Ancient, Ancient, and Ancient grades.

The difference between each rank created an almost insurmountable chasm between two different sets of techniques.

In the Cultivation World, Heaven Rank Daoist Level techniques were incredibly precious, commonly the treasured scriptures of top sects under normal circumstances.

Even in the Immortal Domain, Daoist Level techniques were rare and sought-after, while Immortal Level techniques were most commonly of the Ancient Immortal Law.

Ancient-grade Immortal Laws were already capable of inciting numerous powers to vie fiercely for them.

As for the Ancient Immortal Laws, each appearance would almost certainly trigger a bloody storm in the Immortal Domain.

The Returning Vitality Secret Scripture cultivated by Lin Tian in his past life belonged to the Ancient-grade Immortal Laws.

And the highest-grade Ancient Immortal Laws were something Lin Tian had only heard of in legends in his previous life and had never seen manifest in the Immortal Domain.

Now,

The cultivation method “Nine-Turned and Three Lives Scripture” that appeared in Lin Tian’s mind turned out to be a supreme divine scripture that surpassed even Ancient Immortal Laws—the Holy Ancient Divine Technique.

“This is a Holy Ancient Level technique, transcending Ancient Immortal Laws, and it has appeared in my mind!”

Even as one who had reached the pinnacle and held the status of Immortal Venerable in his previous life, Lin Tian couldn’t help but feel exhilarated.

If he were to cultivate this technique and start over, Lin Tian believed he could definitely break through his previous life’s peak and surpass the Immortal Venerable Level, entering the Ancient Immortal Domain.

After a long while, Lin Tian calmed his excitement and began to inspect the Nine-Turned and Three Lives Scripture in his mind.

The divine art was divided into three parts: Nine-Turned and Three Lives Skill, Nine-Turned and Three Lives Battle Skill, and Nine-Turned and Three Lives Technique.

The Nine-Turned and Three Lives Skill involved alchemy methods and medical knowledge; a myriad of alchemy techniques and medical methods, numerous and intricate, and it presented only the basic elements.

Among them, the core alchemy method, Five Elements Emperor Pill Hand, made Lin Tian’s eyes light up; it was undoubtedly a Supreme Method for crafting elixirs.

The Nine-Turned and Three Lives Battle Skill, as the name suggests, were methods used for combat.

Combat Techniques were a collective term for close-quarters combat techniques and spells, where typically skills were for close combat and spells were for long-range.

The Nine-Turned and Three Lives Battle Skill included a variety of secret techniques, Immortal Laws, Divine Skills, and divine arts that were beyond Lin Tian’s current reach.

The Nine-Turned and Three Lives Technique was the core of the Nine-Turned and Three Lives Scripture and the actual cultivation method.

The technique was divided into three stages: One Becomes Two, Two gives birth to Three, Three Life All Things.

Each stage was further divided into nine turns, and with each advancement in turn, one’s cultivation would double.

Within the same stage, sheer Cultivation True Essence could crush the opponent.

What excited Lin Tian even more was that the Nine-Turned and Three Lives Technique, in addition to the most basic Five Element Spiritual Energy, could also absorb Thunder and Lightning, Yin Qi, Star Power, and more.

Any form of Heaven and Earth Power that could be utilized to increase cultivation could be absorbed and refined.

“This is like being given a pillow when I’m dozing off—the nature’s spiritual energy on Earth is scarce.

If I were to cultivate the ‘Returning Vitality Secret Scripture,’ who knows how many years it would take to break through Foundation Establishment, let alone return to my past life’s peak.

Now, with the Nine-Turned and Three Lives Technique, my cultivation speed can increase at least several times over!”

Lin Tian was visibly excited, his eyes gleaming with brilliance as he spoke, radiating boundless self-confidence.

Swoosh~~

Suddenly, the words circulating in his mind transformed into a ray of light, vanished from sight, and merged into a colorful glass marble the size of a pigeon’s egg.

Colorful glass marbles!

It was indeed the colorful glass marbles gifted to him by his beautiful master in his previous life!

In the tens of thousands of years since Lin Tian obtained this bead from his master in his past life, he had never noticed anything unusual about it.

Unexpectedly, it now carried him through rebirth, which clearly indicated that this bead was no ordinary object; it was very likely a supreme treasure of heaven and earth.

Furthermore, the bead had now changed; from its original size of a fingertip, it had grown to the size of a pigeon’s egg, surrounded by nine nebulous beads the size of thumbs, visible yet elusive.

The entire bead seemed dull and hazy, resembling a mass of chaos.

“Just now, those words from the Nine-Turned and Three Lives Scripture entered this chaotic bead.

There must be a myriad of connections between them.

Since that’s the case, this bead shall be called the Nine-Turned Chaotic Pearl!”

Thinking this, Lin Tian hurriedly attempted to communicate with the Nine-Turned Chaotic Pearl, only to find it unresponsive.

“It seems that although the Nine-Turned Chaotic Pearl brought me through rebirth, it is not something I can communicate with at the moment.

I must first increase my cultivation level!”

Muttering to himself, Lin Tian set the Nine-Turned Chaotic Pearl aside and began to cultivate according to the methods of the Nine-Turned Three Life Technique.

Hum~~

All of nature’s spiritual energy, both inside the room and outside, swarmed towards Lin Tian in an instant.

From underground, a faint trace of Yin Qi rose up, twisting into Lin Tian’s body.

Above the void, the subtle powers of the Void and the Stars were also drawn forth, becoming the energy needed for Lin Tian’s cultivation.

Within a few breaths, the first strand of True Qi appeared in Lin Tian’s Dantian, and it was incredibly pure.

Not only that, but each time the Nine-Turned Three Life Technique absorbed nature’s spiritual energy along with other various energies, it continuously cleansed and strengthened Lin Tian’s physique.

Simply put, the strength of his flesh and his cultivation level advanced side by side.

Lin Tian from his past life understood deeply the terrible might of a strong body, to the point where some mighty beings could attain sainthood through sheer physical strength, where a punch could shatter mountains and rivers, and break through the void.

Now, with the Nine-Turned Three Life Technique, it was like killing two birds with one stone.

Excited in his heart, Lin Tian completely immersed himself in cultivation.

At this moment, in a luxurious hotel in Bin City, Yu Qinghe, the old man who had earlier stopped Lin Tian to hand him a business card, stood in a room, speaking into a phone with a respectful tone, “Master, I’ve already investigated.

Lin Tian’s family background poses no issue; he comes from poverty and is currently worried about next semester’s tuition fees.

I believe he won’t be able to resist the temptation of a 100,000 monthly salary!

Moreover, his skills are decent.

He has intervened to save the young miss before, and he attends the same high school as her.

He is just right for the role of a overt bodyguard!”

“Oh, a student from Meiling High School?

What a coincidence!”

A deep and time-worn voice came through the phone, “But still, Ahe, is it not a bit cruel to use a teenager as a shield or even a scapegoat?”

“Master, without disrespect, you have also been through bloodshed on the battlefield, experienced dozens of life-or-death battles.

How have you become so softhearted now…”

Yu Qinghe showed confusion, sighing after a long pause.

“In the end, it’s just because I’ve aged!

Watching my own children grow up, especially my most beloved granddaughter, the thought of hiring such a young child as her overt bodyguard, facing extreme danger and risking life at any moment, it makes me think…

if something were to happen to my granddaughter, I am just afraid!”

The elderly voice leisurely transmitted over the phone, “Couldn’t we find someone else?

For such a big child, I can’t bear to do it!”

“Master, you’ve got it wrong!

If he’s the personal bodyguard, then he will be with the young miss almost every day; in reality, he will be very safe!”

After thinking for a moment, Yu Qinghe continued, “His presence is only to divert attention of those people, but we shouldn’t release the information too deliberately.

Unless they resort to using martial artists, our arranged experts are already enough to covertly protect the young miss.

They should be able to fend off world-class assassins!

Master, with the young master having gone to the island and many of the family’s businesses handed over to the young miss, she’s your precious pearl, and those people will definitely stop at nothing to harm her.

This might very well be their first step in shaking the foundation of our family…

When that time comes…”

The aged voice paused for a long time before finalizing, “Ahe, I understand.

Let’s do as you have suggested!”

“Good, Master.

I will promptly put everything in order here and then immediately return to Yanjing.

Without a reliable person by your side there, I cannot rest easy.”

Yu Qinghe agreed, then hung up the phone.
