King of Creation

Chapter 706: Chapter 697: The Land of Revival

“Elder Yangh, you… how did you turn into this… appearance?”

The spiritual power invitation Yangh Yiguan left for Ye Zhen did not mention the Five Elements Melt Blood Pill; it merely stated that the matter was of great importance and required a face-to-face discussion with Ye Zhen. The invitation only contained an address.

When Ye Zhen met Yangh Yiguan, an elder of the Beast Taming Sect, in a separate courtyard in Qinglan Martial City, he was also taken aback.

If it weren’t for Yangh Yiguan’s signature goat beard remaining, Ye Zhen would have almost doubted the person before him was the same imposing elder of the Beast Taming Sect he had met half a year ago.

At this moment, Yangh Yiguan was skin and bones, his complexion yellowed, and even his hair had whitened partially, looking like an ordinary old man in his seventies or eighties, aged by decades in an instant.

For a martial artist, it’s basically impossible to end up like this. If a martial artist displays such signs of aging that are common in ordinary people, it indicates one thing— their life span is nearing its end, and death is not far away.

Ye Zhen also noticed that Yangh Yiguan’s aura was much weaker than before. After careful sensing, he discovered that Yangh Yiguan’s cultivation aura had plummeted from the peak of the Sixth Stage of the Vein Forging Realm to the Early Stage.

A full level of cultivation had dropped. Were it not for the fact that martial artists’ veins are not easily scattered after successful vein forging, Yangh Yiguan’s cultivation would probably be at the Fifth Stage of the Vein Forging Realm now.

“Cough cough!”

Before speaking, Yangh Yiguan first coughed violently several times, appearing extremely weak.

“What else can it be? Isn’t it just for finding the Five Elements Melt Blood Pill for you that I have ended up like this! In the pursuit of the Five Elements Melt Blood Pill for you, my master risked his life nine times out of ten. And my junior brothers, they all… they all…”

At this point, Yangh Yiguan’s eldest disciple, the grown man Ma Yue, actually started to choke up.

Ye Zhen first listened in shock and then his expression became solemn. Ye Zhen had not anticipated that finding the Five Elements Melt Blood Pill would be so difficult.

But Yangh Yiguan coughed lightly and waved his hand, “Yue’er, this has nothing to do with Young Hero Ye! The reward was issued by me. Since Young Hero Ye has found the information, I would have to make this trip sooner or later; it’s just a matter of time… cough cough…”
