When Earth becomes a battlefield and killing becomes the norm, everyone eagerly awaits their desired items from treasure chests dropped by monsters. But he, having opened so many treasure chests, h...
He had experienced too many life-and-death situations, and even tens of millions of souls in the entire South City fought for him. This experience was far more important than any talent. Besides, his talent was unparalleled and incomparable.
Walking through the deathly aura of the passage, Jiang Yuan was suddenly overwhelmed with a sense of familiarity. This was one of the three main courtyards of the Jiang family, and the Lingyun Jiang family, one of the three major factions of the Jiang family, lived here.
The Jiang family is divided into three major factions, each named after its ancestral home from which it migrated: the Lingyun Jiang family at the source of the Yangtze River, the Zhongyuan Jiang family in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, and the Duhai Jiang family at the end of the Yangtze River. Jiang Yuan, in particular, belongs to the Zhongyuan Jiang family.
"It seems that the elder has reached his twilight years!" Jiang Yuan already knew the answer. He had been here several times and naturally knew who was in charge. Moreover, at that age, it was indeed difficult to survive a natural death.
"Father, the person has been brought!"
The middle-aged man stood respectfully outside the hall and called out.
"Sigh, we've already let it go, so why are you young people still so persistent?" A frail, old voice came from inside the house.
"Father, you've finally waited for the arrival of the Apocalypse Era. If you can hold on and get through this life-or-death ordeal, your lifespan can be extended again. You must not give up!" The middle-aged man's expression was moved, and his trembling hands proved that he was experiencing great emotional turmoil.
"Fine, let's give it a try!"
A sigh escaped his lips, and then there was no more sound from inside the room, as if saying those few words had exhausted all his strength.
"Thank you for your trouble, sir!" The middle-aged man bowed to Jiang Yuan, even changing his address from "young friend" to "sir".
"Don't worry, I'll do my best!"
Jiang Yuan nodded, then calmly stepped into the house.
The room was simply furnished with a table, a chair, and a bed, without any modern furniture. The person Jiang Yuan needed to treat was lying leisurely on the recliner, and the deathly aura in the room emanated from this person.
"Sit down, have a cup of tea, and then go to the manager to collect some money as compensation for troubling you with this trip." The old man on the recliner didn't even open his eyes, having been resting with his eyes half-closed the whole time.
"Now that I'm here, I can't just be going through the motions!" Jiang Yuan said calmly.
He used the Hand of Death to obtain many useful things from the death aura emanating from the other party. First of all, it can be confirmed that this elder of the Jiang family is nearing the end of his lifespan. However, what truly killed him and caused him to show signs of death was not just the end of his lifespan, but another kind of power.
"I know my illness well. Even if a celestial being came, they couldn't save me!" The old man's eyelids trembled slightly as he slowly opened his eyes. His fading life force had left him extremely weak, and even opening his eyes was a burden.
"Senior, please have some water first. I cannot treat you in your current condition!"
Jiang Yuan took out the Demon Refining Pot, which contained the Spring of Life that had been specially purified by the Demon Refining Pot. This pot alone was worth more than a hundred pounds.
"You pour it yourself, I don't need to..." The old man was about to refuse, but a strong vitality interrupted him.
The old man turned his head to look at Jiang Yuan for the first time. He had originally thought that this person was just a conman, but this one move made him reject his initial prejudice.
"What is this thing?" the old man managed to utter a few words, his gaze already drawn to the Demon Refining Pot containing the Fountain of Life.
“Things reach their extreme and then reverse; this is the spring of life from the land of death!” Jiang Yuan did not hide anything. He needed to let the Jiang family elders know that he had the ability to heal him. Only in this way could he carry out his plan.
"The Fountain of Life in the Land of Death!" A hint of surprise appeared on the old man's face.
"Senior, please drink this first, so I can heal you later!" Jiang Yuan placed the Demon Refining Pot on the table next to the rattan chair.
The old man's surprise was not yet over. When he saw the design of the Demon Refining Pot, curiosity flashed in his eyes. However, out of respect for the guest, he did not ask about the origin of the Demon Refining Pot. Instead, he opened the Demon Refining Pot and took a small sip.
With one sip, the fountain of life flowed to his limbs and bones, and life force began to emerge from his long-withered body. Even the death aura on his body was slightly reduced.
"Wow, what an amazing thing!"
The old man, after taking a sip of the Fountain of Life, held the Demon Refining Pot in amazement. After praising it, he handed the pot back to Jiang Yuan, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, sir, but this is useless for my illness, so I won't waste your treasure!"
“Senior, I have my own rules when practicing medicine. I don’t charge a penny if I can’t cure a patient, but I do ask for something if I do cure a patient! So, senior, you don’t need to worry about whether it’s a waste or not.” Jiang Yuan confiscated the Demon Refining Pot.
"Sir, you are not old, but you have a clear sense of right and wrong." The old man smiled, and instead of returning the Demon Refining Pot, he tilted his head back and drank the entire pot of Spring of Life.
After drinking a pot of the Fountain of Life, the old man's complexion became much rosier, and his strength improved; at least he was able to sit up from the recliner.
"Senior, you can just lie down. My treatment is very simple and requires no other preparation!"
Jiang Yuan stopped the Jiang family elder from moving. The Fountain of Life could only temporarily alleviate his crisis, but it was still only a temporary solution. Therefore, in order to prevent the condition from worsening, he let the Jiang family elder maintain his original movements.
The entire layout of this room is arranged according to the Gathering Life Formation in the array, from the smallest floorboards to the largest recliners and tables. These are the reliance of the Jiang family elders to continue living. If the array is broken, the deterioration of their condition will come very quickly, so he must be careful.
"Sir, you understand formations?" The old man's gaze toward Jiang Yuan sharpened once more.
"I know a little!" Jiang Yuan shook his head modestly. He first prepared another pot of the Spring of Life in case of emergency. While preparing, he asked, "Senior, could you tell me about your strength level, lifespan, injuries and illnesses, etc., so that I can give you an accurate treatment plan?"
