Chapter 93 The Heavenly Doctor Has the Immortal Scripture

The White-Haired Old Man looked somewhat familiar, but Li Fan couldn't recall where he had seen him before.

He was kind-faced and approachable, like a grandfather from next door.

It made people feel good about him.

Lin Fan, of course, couldn't believe that the other party was just an ordinary person.

Undoubtedly, the other party's cultivation was too high, far exceeding the range Lin Fan could currently sense.

Thus, Lin Fan became even more cautious.

He bowed and said, "Greetings, Senior."

The White-Haired Old Man chuckled in response, "No need to be so formal. I'm just an old man who should have died but didn't."

After a pause, he kindly asked, "Are you the one who wants to hand over the Cloud Water Diagram?"

Li Fan nodded, then handed over the colorful model.

The White-Haired Old Man took the miniature Yunshui Heavenly Palace, examined it carefully, and his eyes revealed an endless look of nostalgia.

"That's right, it's this one."

"Vast Sea, Taiyi, Fuyun…"

"Long time no see."

Seemingly lost in memories, the Old Man's eyes became somewhat cloudy.

Lin Fan's heart skipped a beat upon hearing the Old Man's words.

He stood silently to the side, not daring to move rashly.

From his words, it seemed this Old Man was actually of the same generation as that Turtle Snake Taiyi?

The destruction of the Yunshui Heavenly Palace was an event from who knows how many years ago. This guy actually managed to live from that time until now?

One must know that after the Great Tribulation, Cultivators were generally targeted by the maliciousness of heaven and earth.

They could no longer live as long as ancient Cultivators.

Living for a thousand years was already extremely difficult.

What kind of cultivation would allow one to live this long?

Soul Transformation? Dao Integration?

Lin Fan dared not make wild guesses, but he became even more vigilant.

In this world where immortal arts could not be cultivated together, to be able to live from the Great Tribulation until now…

Such a big shot…

If he truly believed that he would be as "benevolent" as he appeared, then he would be too naive.

The White-Haired Old Man looked at the somewhat nervous Lin Fan and smiled wryly.

"What is the current state inside the Yunshui Heavenly Palace?" he asked.

Lin Fan then described in detail Qin Tang, who had turned into a stone statue, the Insect Daoist, who used his own body for Alchemy, and Taiyi, whose body was covered in broken swords.

"If there weren't special reasons, I wouldn't be able to enter the Yunshui Heavenly Palace. Nor would I sit idly by while they suffered."

After a long silence, the Old Man sighed with endless emotion.

"To be able to come out of the Yunshui Heavenly Palace alive, you are quite shrewd," the Old Man praised, sizing up Lin Fan.

"It was just luck," Lin Fan humbly replied.

"I have another request, are you willing to undertake it?" the White-Haired Old Man suddenly asked again.

"Senior, please speak freely."

"When you have time, please make another trip to the Yunshui Heavenly Palace and place this item there." The White-Haired Old Man took out a small white jade statue and handed it to Lin Fan.

This white jade statue had no special aura and seemed to be carved from ordinary jade.

And the statue's appearance was identical to the White-Haired Old Man in front of him.

"Since I cannot personally enter the Yunshui Heavenly Palace, I will use this statue to accompany them always in my stead."

"As for the reward…"

The White-Haired Old Man pondered for a moment, then pointed a finger at Lin Fan's glabella.

In an instant, countless pieces of information appeared in Lin Fan's mind.

Even with Lin Fan's Divine Sense strength at the Qi Refining Middle Stage, he couldn't help but feel dizzy and his head swelled.

When he came to his senses, the White-Haired Old Man's figure had already disappeared from the tianxuan mirror.

And one hundred thousand contribution points had successfully arrived.

Slowly sorting through the vast information in his mind, it took a long time for Li Fan to figure out what the White-Haired Old Man's reward was.

The Heavenly Physician Immortal Scripture.

It wasn't a Cultivation Technique, but a medical scripture.

It not only encompassed knowledge of human physiology, pathology, diagnosis, treatment, and medicine.

Its research scope even included various animals and plants in the world.

It could be described as all-encompassing, containing everything.

The sheer volume of information was so immense that Lin Fan estimated it would take him at least a decade to simply read through it once.

This vast and precious treasure trove of knowledge was casually bestowed upon Lin Fan by the White-Haired Old Man.

"It's good stuff, it's good stuff. Unfortunately, it's too energy-consuming to learn. I can only put it aside for now."

Lin Fan dared not neglect the White-Haired Old Man's request.

After all, the Senior had already given the reward in advance.

So Lin Fan made another trip to the Yunshui Heavenly Palace.

He originally thought that after his Clone entered again, he would re-experience Senior Brother Qin Tang's illusory dream test.

But in the storage ring, after the statue emitted a burst of white light, Lin Fan appeared directly in front of the Yunshui Heavenly Palace's main gate.

The Old Man's statue automatically detached from Lin Fan's storage ring and flew into the sky.

Then, like melting ice and snow, it slowly dissolved and disappeared.

"Is this mission considered complete? It's a bit too simple and smooth," Lin Fan muttered to himself.

He waited for a moment longer, but nothing unusual happened inside the Yunshui Heavenly Palace.

"I wonder what that statue was for."

Unable to discern any mystery, Lin Fan could only choose to leave.

Safely back inside the tianxuan mirror, Lin Fan looked at his balance of one hundred thousand contribution points and fell into contemplation.

Originally, Lin Fan planned for his Clone to obtain one hundred thousand contribution points, then directly exchange them for the necessary Cultivation Techniques and treasures, and then hand them over to his main body.

Just like how Xiao Heng exchanged for the Minor Evolution Water Art and sent it to Li Fan in the previous life.

But after seeing the White-Haired Old Man, Li Fan dispelled this idea.

Currently, it was better for the Clone and the main body not to have any connection.

The White-Haired Old Man always gave Li Fan an extremely dangerous feeling.

At present, the Clone had already fallen into his sight.

If the main body and the Clone rashly came into contact and he discovered the connection between the two.

Given the miraculous nature of the Day Stealing Sun Replacement Art, even if this White-Haired Old Man's cultivation was extraordinary, it couldn't be guaranteed that he wouldn't be tempted.

After all, in this dangerous Cultivation World, people could be refined into heaven and earth strange objects.

No amount of caution was too much.

As for whether these one hundred thousand contribution points would rot in the Clone's hands, unable to be spent.

There was absolutely no need to worry about that.

After all, in this world, the most precious thing was all kinds of knowledge, including Cultivation Techniques!

While the Clone browsed various types of knowledge, it was equivalent to the main body simultaneously viewing them.

Therefore, the effect of the Clone spending these one hundred thousand contribution points was the same as the main body spending them.

Calming himself down, Lin Fan first searched for information regarding the "Ancient War."

While in the Yunshui Heavenly Palace, he had been very concerned about the front-line war that Qin Tang and the Insect Daoist repeatedly mentioned.

That war seemed quite tragic, making them obsessed with it even after becoming aberrations.

Soon, Lin Fan found some fragmented information.

Unfortunately, perhaps due to the extremely distant age, all related records were vague about it.

The only thing that could be confirmed was that such a great war indeed existed.

This war seemed to be protracted, having begun even before the Immortal Venerable preached the Dao.

It continued until the Great Tribulation descended and only then did it cease.

Lin Fan then searched for information about heaven and earth strange objects.
