Eternal Life (永生) Ch. 5

Rebirth

“Not long left?” Fang Han was completely immersed in listening, to think that the outside world was so amazing.

“Exactly, I was. .h.i.t by Fang Qing Xue’s Purple Yin Lightning Knife, and thus my life has been cut, at most, I can live a little while longer. This Purple Yin Lightning Knife is believed to be the greatest of the Yu’hua School’s eight Divine secrets requiring one to use magic to collect the many essences of lightning and refine them into true fire. The technique is highly lethal.” Bai Hai Chen sighed, “Just now, it was the power of the ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet’ that allowed me to reawaken.”

“This ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet,’ it can restore all of your injuries?” Fang Han rolled his eyes.

“The ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet’ is the number one body strengthening pellet under the sky, if I had used this pellet before I received injury, then I would have pa.s.sed the boundary into the Divine Realm. Alas, now I cannot.” Bai Hai Chen shook his head sadly.

“Teacher, please accept this disciple’s wors.h.i.+p.” Fang Han kowtowed without any hesitation; this was a great opportunity for him.

Upon seeing Fang Han kowtow three times in a row, Bai Hai Chen nodded his head.

“From now on, you are a disciple of the Qun’xing School. The Qun’xing School is comparable to the Yu’hua School in the Ten Immortal Schools. Master is a disciple of the school. This time, I stayed at Huang’quan Mountain, and received the ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet’ and the ‘Map of the Hidden Yellow Dragon Spring,’ and upon donating it to the sect, I would have become a true disciple.”

Ah, so it was like that. Why, when I received the pill, did I not immediately use it? This guy was planning on donating it to his sect for even more benefits. However, looking at my future, if there is benefit then I will swallow it, and not thing about what if in the future. Only the benefit after swallowing it truly benefit.” Fang Han thought in his mind.

“Since master is a disciple of the Qun’xing School, why don’t you have me send the golden pellet and the treasure scroll to the school?” Fang Han asked.

“To travel to the Qun’xing School one must travel for tens of thousands of li, as it is not within the Da’li Empire. Can you reach such a place? Not to mention, our school has many disciples, and they all want to become true disciples. I am afraid if you went, the treasures would be s.n.a.t.c.hed away. Thus, first I let you approach and get close to Fang Qing Xue, and enter the Yu’hua School. Then, after surviving in the Yu’hua School, once you become strong enough, you steal their scriptures and we donate everything to the Qun’xing School. With these huge achievements, even the higher ups will notice them. Forget about magic, they might even help resurrect me! Your achievements will be unmatched as well!”

“In the Fang Clan, I am but a horse breeder, there is no way for met to approach the first lady.” Fang Han licked his lips.

“Using the ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet’ you can, the ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet’ can change the const.i.tution of your entire body, with it, your flesh will undergo unthinkable transformation, and your bones will be refined, causing you to become as perfect and as beautiful as jade. Other people cannot detect, and Fang Qing Xue who has already trained to the third level, Yuan’geng, of the divine will definitely detect that your roots are different.” Bai Hai Chen seemed to have already completely thought of everything.

“Divine Realm level three, Yuan’geng territory? What is that?” Fang Han had once again learned some more about training.

“The Mortal Realm has ten levels, upon entering the Divine Realm, there are another ten levels! Once one trains to the peak tenth level of the Divine Realm, one can invert life and death, comprehend the secrets of longevity to live ten thousand years, change their appearance at will, and reincarnate. At this point, one can truly consider themselves the most powerful in the universe, the true emperor of the heavens and earth. If one can enter the Longevity Realm, only the Ten Immortals of the ten schools, the Mo’dao Emperors, etc. and other unworldly characters can compare. We are far from there level, just bugs under their feet. Their laughs can tear the sky. The ten levels of the Divine Realm, even I do not comprehend enough to explain to you. Thus, right now, the best course of action for you is to accomplish the tasks I have given you.”

Amidst Bai Hai Chen’s talking, his breathing became rougher, as if talking just now had consumed a lot of power, feeling close to the point where he would die, he suddenly stuck out his hand.

“Shua!”

Fang Han only felt the opposing’s long, long fingernails, completely black, like a knife, and incomparably sharp, suddenly rip open the clothes over his heart.

Afterwards, the fingernails sunk into flesh, ripping out blood.

's.h.i.+t, this guy isn’t good, he wants to eat my heart!” Fang Han felt extreme pain from his chest, it felt as if he entire heart was about to be dug out.

“Bo!”

Right at this time, Bai Hai Chen picked up the ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet,’ “Unfortunate, so unfortunate, my entire body has already been burnt, my blood doesn’t flow, this golden pellet, I give to you.”

Amidst his talking, he pressed down on the ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet.’

Surprisingly, he pressed the golden pill into the opened hole in Fang Han’s heart, and immediately, the flesh st.i.tched itself back together.

“The usage of the ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet’ is not done by swallowing, nor by applying to skin. Even if one swallows it, it will not be digested, and will instead dig itself out.” Bai Hai Chen continued, “The only way to use it, is to open a hole in the heart, and to press it into the heart, borrowing the power of circulation to constantly erode it, causing the medicinal power to fuse into the bloodstream, replacing the blood and cleansing the marrow, causing the body to be reborn! At this point, no matter what martial arts you train, you will be the greatest.”

“It really hurts.”

Fang Han’s heart wall had been pierced open by the nails, but his desire overcame the pain, and he clenched his teeth and withheld his screams. After a short while, the worst ended and the joy seeped in, the ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet,’ upon being absorbed into the heart, immediately began diffusing its medicinal powers, the flesh which had been cut open immediately closing, the blood clotting, eventually leaving only a thin red line.

All in all, his entire body felt clear, his lips secreting a fragrant and sweet liquid, “Gu’dong, Gu’dong,” from the spot between his throat and stomach, all bad air left his body through his pores.

Afterwards, he quickly ran to the riverside and took a s.h.i.+t, excreting all of the dark, foul, and smelly stuff from his body. His pores were also excreting this stuff. Thus, he decided to simply bathe, after which his body felt clean, and leaving a refres.h.i.+ng aroma around his body.

In particular, his body felt more powerful, with every breath, his heart beat twice, with every jump, his body felt even more powerful.

The ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet’ seemed to have made his heart stronger, increasing its circulation power.

As soon as his body was ready, he felt his head, now much clearer than before. Today’s encounter ran through his mind, many surprising thoughts popping up, as if a fool had finally opened its eyes, and become intelligent.

“To think that the better the body, the clearer the mind. A stronger physique helps nourish the mind, stimulate it to the Divine Realm.” Fang Han once again went through the theories he had secretly learned about martial arts.

“Don’t be happy too early, as of now you have only offset the shortcomings of your original body.” Bai Hai Chen coldly said. “You need to train your body to the peak, and must do so slowly. However, you will be faster than others now. From today on, you can began high-intensity training, as you now have the nutrition needed to keep it up. Sit down, let me teach you my Seven Star Fist, as well as the story and secret of the ‘Map of the Hidden Yellow Dragon Spring.’

Fang Han slowly sat down, listening to Bai Hai Chen tell his story, gradually entering nirvana.

But Bai Hai Chen’s sound became increasingly frail, and spoke to the end. “My Qun’xing School’s many styles, are based off the orbits of the planets above, creating many levels, body communicate with the world, strengthening the foundation. Upon reaching the Divine Realm, you must remember this, be cautious of the sky star orbit.”

[TL: It could just be star orbit, but since I believe it is common sense that stars are in the sky, I believe the author is referring to a specific star]

Suddenly, his body became stiff again, “Remember! You must go to the Yu’hua School and steal the Yu’hua Fei’sheng’jing! Donate it to the head! When the time comes, you and I will have a big advantage. Also, take my body, and secretly bury it, no matter what, do not cremate or preserve whole. Soon, your achievements will be enough to request a condition from an immortal. Ask for my rebirth. If my body has been damaged, and cannot undergo rebirth, you must remember me!”

After finis.h.i.+ng his speech, Bai Hai Chen’s body suddenly stiffened! His breath completely disappeared. He had died.
