The treatment process was quite complex, as Han Lingyan’s body had suffered severe radiation damage. Ye Tian needed to use many precious medicinal ingredients, making the procedure rather troublesome.
It took him an entire morning to prepare a medicinal bath for Han Lingyan to soak in overnight, a process that would last for at least half a month. After half a month, he would adjust the treatment plan.
That night, Han Lingyan soaked in the medicinal bath and fell into a deep sleep.
In Ye Tian’s resting room, Lin Ziyi nestled in his arms and softly asked, “Tian Ge, will Lingyan be alright? She will recover, won’t she?”
Ye Tian was silent for a few seconds before replying, “I can’t guarantee it with 100% certainty. The intense radiation damaged her cells at a molecular level, which led to the cancerous transformation. This medicinal bath will help her normal cells regenerate rapidly, replacing the damaged ones.”
Lin Ziyi asked, “What exactly is that mask? How could it possess such strong radiation?”
Ye Tian answered, “It’s a magical artifact used to communicate with heaven, earth, spirits, and gods.”
Lin Ziyi exclaimed, “Communicate with heaven, earth, spirits, and gods? That’s incredible!”
Ye Tian said, “I’ll study it carefully later.”
Lin Ziyi cautioned, “Then be careful. Radiation is harmful to the human body.”
Ye Tian chuckled and replied, “For someone like me, radiation cannot cause harm. Radiation is also a form of energy; it cannot even penetrate my skin.”
Lin Ziyi felt relieved. She hugged Ye Tian tighter and said, “No need for safety measures today.”
Ye Tian smiled and leaned in to kiss his beloved.
In the early morning, under the bright moonlight, Ye Tian absorbed the moon essence.
At that moment, he felt the box beside him vibrate slightly. Opening it, Li Xuangui’s voice emerged, “Kid, have you forgotten about me? You haven’t paid any attention to me these past few days.”
Ye Tian replied, “I was afraid of disturbing you.”
He then asked, “Old Li, it’s a full moon today. Aren’t you going to absorb some moon essence?”
Li Xuangui said, “I no longer have a physical body, so I can’t absorb anything. Can you give me that Golden Elixir from last time?”
Ye Tian retorted, “Dream on! I’m planning to use it for alchemy.”
Li Xuangui promised, “Once I recover my cultivation, I will surely reward you.”
Ye Tian said, “Thanks.”
Li Xuangui sighed and then proposed, “Ye Tian, how about I teach you how to become a true Human Immortal?”
Ye Tian asked, “Haven’t you noticed? I have a primordial spirit now.”
Li Xuangui offered, “I can help you refine that immortal energy within your body.”
Ye Tian’s heart stirred. “You noticed that immortal energy?”
The last time, Wu Bei had been unconscious, and a mysterious immortal energy had entered his body. However, he thought it had already dissipated.
Li Xuangui explained, “This immortal energy has hidden itself, but it won’t remain hidden for long; it will dissipate within six months at most. This thing is extraordinary; it’s a super-code that can break genetic locks, something even I don’t possess.”
Ye Tian was intrigued. “Oh, you’re saying this immortal energy is a code that can unlock genetic locks.”
Li Xuangui confirmed, “Precisely. Ordinary people’s genes are restricted, with certain super-genes hidden. To harness the power of these genes, one must possess the code.”
Ye Tian was surprised. “I never realized that.”
Li Xuangui stated, “If I hadn’t told you, you would have missed this opportunity.”
Ye Tian quickly inquired, “Can you help me absorb the immortal energy?”
Li Xuangui agreed, “Of course. But you must give me the Golden Elixir.”
Ye Tian replied, “It’s too late. The Golden Elixir has already merged with the demon core.”
Li Xuangui lamented, “Alas, what a pity!”
Ye Tian reassured him, “It’s alright. You don’t necessarily need a Golden Elixir to recover your cultivation.”
Li Xuangui conceded, “Forget it, I’ll help you anyway.”
Ye Tian asked, “How will you help?”
Li Xuangui instructed, “Wait a moment.”
Subsequently, a force acted upon Ye Tian. The immortal energy that had previously disappeared from his body began to surge forth. Under the control of this mysterious force, the immortal energy permeated into Ye Tian’s cells.
The entire process lasted about five minutes. Then, the mysterious force vanished, and Li Xuangui announced, “I’m exhausted. I’m going to rest now.”
With that, he closed his eyes.
Wu Bei then closed the box, not wanting to disturb him further.
