Elixir Supplier Chapter 729 Second to None

“Let’s go,” the old Taoist said.

He and his students left the tomb and returned back to the surface. The old Taoist took a long breath of relief. The whole action took a lot of energy to complete.

After resting for a short while, he walked into the shed outside the tomb again.

“Let’s get out of here,” he said.

He and his two students left the shed. He walked around it before entering it again. He took the wooden sword off his back and held it in his hand. He waved his hand Crack! The roof of the shed was open. The wooden sword was amazingly sharp. The old Taoist created a big hole in the roof for the sunshine to come in. The sunshine fell right onto the door of the tomb.

“Good,” the old Taoist said.

He walked out of the shed and set up a battle array using paper charm before leaving with his two students.

“They are back,” Liu Sifang said as soon as he saw the three Taoists coming down from the hill.

The old Taoist and one of his students looked fine. However, the other student looked terrible. His face was pale. Liu Sifang presumed he must have been hurt by the evil soul. Fortunately, he survived and was still able to walk.

“Are you OK?” Liu Sifang asked.

“I’m fine, but one of my students was hit by the evil soul,” the old Taoist said. “He should be fine in the next few days.”

“Come here, let me help you. Take a break here,” Liu Sifang said as he helped the injured Taoist sit down. “Have you sorted out the evil ghost?”

“Not really,” the old Taoist said. “It is stronger than I expected. I just imprisoned it for now. It won’t come out in the next nine days.”

“I see,” Liu Sifang said. “What about nine days later?”

“I’ll call my elder brother later to ask him to send more people here,” the old Taoist said. “He’ll probably have to come here himself.”

After they had returned to the village, the old Taoist called his elder brother. Soon, it was lunch time.

“This is Dragon Tiger Mountain?” Wang Yao stood at the foot of the mountain looking at the green mountains surrounded by clouds and fog.

Dragon Tiger Mountain was much bigger than Nanshan Hill. After all, it was a mountain.

“Yes, shall we go?” Miao Sanding suggested.

He really wanted to get to the Taoist temple as soon as possible. He was worried about the Taoist in critical condition. After all, he was already very sick when he had left the temple.

“OK,” Wang Yao said.

They went up toward the Taoist temple.

“Hey, there is a Taoist temple over there.” Wang Yao pointed at the Taoist temple that came in his sight first.

“There are several Taoist temples on the mountain,” Miao Sanding said.

The air on the mountain was very fresh. Wang Yao could tell the aura on the mountain was very strong. After all, the mountain had been well-known for its Taoist temples for thousands of years.

There was more than one temple on the mountain. Wang Yao saw three Taoist temples on his way up. It was his first time to be there, so he took his time to appreciate the view on the mountain. Dragon Tiger mountain was also a popular tourist spot for its for its natural sights and heritage.

They stopped outside one of the Taoist temples. Miao Sanding said, “Here we are.”

This temple was actually hidden inside the mountain. Wang Yao presumed there weren’t many visitors there.

“Hmm?” Wang Yao sighed.

“What?” Miao Sanding asked.

“The location of the temple is a bit weird, but you are the expert,” Wang Yao said.

“The temple has a history of several hundreds of years,” Miao Sanding said. “When it was initially built, the head Taoist chose this location for a good reason. In addition, Dragon Tiger Mountain itself is the sacred place for Taoism practitioners. It is a blessed place. They didn’t even need to do anything to have the best Feng Shui.”

He entered the temple with Wang Yao and said hello to the Taoists inside as they made their way to the head Taoist.

“Hello, Uncle,” Miao Sanding said.

“Hello, Sanding,” the old Taoist said.

“This is?!” As soon as the old Taoist saw Wang Yao, he was surprised. He was staring at Wang Yao as if he was a rare and precious object. He murmured, “This is impossible!”

Wang Yao didn’t say anything. He just stood there quietly.

“Do you practice Taoism?” the old Taoist asked.

“Sort of,” Wang Yao said.

“What level are you at?” the old Taoist asked.

“Well, good question. But, I really don’t know,” Wang Yao said.

He wanted to provide a precise answer, but he didn’t know what to say. He had a basic idea of what level he was at, but he didn’t know how the outside world determined different levels.

“So, you’ve been practicing the Taoism method?” the old Taoist asked.

“I think so,” Wang Yao said. The Natural Classics was a Taoism scripture.

While the old Taoist was observing him, Wang Yao was observing the old Taoist. He felt familiar with the old man, who had also been practicing Taoism. To some extent, this was the first time he had met a person truly practicing Taoism. Different Taoism methods had the same principle, which was quietism and naturalism.

“This Dr. Wang cured me and Sifang last time,” Miao Sanding said.

“Really? You are also a doctor?” the old Taoist asked.

“I am a Chinese Traditional Pharmacist,” Wang Yao said.

“Chinese Traditional Pharmacist inherited from the Pharmacist King?” the old Taoist asked with surprise.

“Not really,” Wang Yao said.

“I see. Anyway, could you please take a look at one of the Taoists here?” the old Taoist asked.

Wang Yao entered the room where the sick Taoist was resting. The Taoist’s breath was very weak.

“Oh my goodness,” Wang Yao said. The Taoist’s condition was much worse than what Miao Sanding and Liu Sifang had faced.

“What do you think?” the old Taoist asked.

“It’s not good. He is dying.” Wang Yao could tell the patient’s condition after taking a glance at him. “We don’t need so many people here.”

“OK. You can leave now,” the old Taoist said to his fellow Taoists.

After the left, there were only Wang Yao, Miao Sanding, the patient, and the old Taoist left in the room.

Wang Yao immediately started to treat the patient. First, he tried to remove the invisible weird Qi from the patient. He stretched his arms and pushed out with his hands. A large amount of rich energy were released from his palm. The energy shrouded the patient like a bell. The internal powder started moving under Wang Yao’s control to offset the excessive Yin energy from the patient.

That is?! The old Taoist was in shock. He saw his dying teacher in Wang Yao.

“That is the Taoism Qi!” the old Taoist exclaimed. He could feel a large amount of pure energy moving around. As a Taoism practitioner, he knew what it was. “It is not easy to build up the Taoism Qi inside one’s body. Maybe only one in a hundred could achieve it. The way you release your Qi is extremely rare. It means you have opened up the bridge connecting the earth and heaven, and you can communicate with the world using your Qi now.”

The excessive Yin energy gradually disappeared from the sick Taoist. However, he was not cured yet. He had been sick for a long time, and his condition was serious. The delay of treatment had damaged different parts of his body.

Wang Yao gave him a nine grass pill and wrote down a formula on a piece of paper.

“Thank you,” the old Taoist said.

He sent people to get the herbs for the formula. Some herbs were available in the temple.

“Can you cure him?” the old Taoist asked.

“He is not in danger now, but it will take some time for him to recover,” Wang Yao said.

“Great! Can I have a word?” the old Taoist asked.

“Sure,” Wang Yao said. He followed the old Taoist to the backyard.

“Can you communicate with the world using your internal power?” the old Taoist directly asked.

“Well, I don’t quite understand what you mean by communicating with the world,” Wang Yao said. “Do you mean if I can create wind and rain?”

“Haha, of course not,” the old Taoist said. “Human beings are part of the world but independent. People who practice Taoism can understand the nature of the world better, communicate with the world better, and establish a connection between the earth and heaven.”

“Do you mean this?” Wang Yao released some Qi.

“Yes!” The old Taoist was thrilled. “I’m so lucky to witness someone doing this when I’m still alive!”

It was now Wang Yao’s turn to ask questions. He had always practiced by himself. He had never come across anyone else practicing the same thing. He felt lonely sometimes. Therefore, he was really happy to meet a person who was also a Taoism practitioner.

He asked the old Taoist questions he had always wanted to ask. The old Taoist answered all his questions with patience. Until now, Wang Yao did not realize that after practicing Taoism by himself for such a long time, he had become a top practitioner.

“You are such a fortunate person,” the old Taoist said.

“Thank you. I do agree with you,” Wang Yao said. He really thought he was favored by the gods.

“Sorry, I have to leave now,” the old Taoist said. “Maybe you can walk around here. Dragon Tiger mountain is a beautiful place. It is worthwhile for you to visit.”

“Are you going to the ancient tomb?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes. My younger brother has gone there with two students,” the old Taoist said. “I think they’ve come across some trouble. I need to go and help them.”

“Can I go with you?” Wang Yao asked.
