Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 281: Chapter 148: Golden Cicada Continuity, Body Refinement Third Stage, First Meeting with Nangong (Seeking Monthly Tickets for Twelve Thousand Chapters )_1

Soon, the trio arrived at the Yu Ding Sword Pavilion.

Sun Shou, the familiar old man, greeted them at the door.

After they stepped inside, Sun Shou, disappointed, scolded, “You younger generations only know battles and fights. Can’t you treat yourselves better?” “This is the second time your hand has been severed!”

“In my opinion, even if you’re given a new hand to attach, you’re not going to have a chance to reach the Foundation Establishment level in this lifetime.”

“Your body and skin were received from your parents, they are the core foundations. How can you not cherish them?”

Listening to his rambling, Qin Liangchen remained silent, and worry unveiled on Murong Qinglian’s face.

Before long, he led the three of them to the entrance of a quiet room.

Sun Shou gestured with his hand.

Murong Qinglian immediately handed over a cloth bag containing thirty medium grade Spirit Stones. It was the cost of reattaching the arm.

The amount included the fee for the treatment and the material cost.

Weighing the cloth bag, Sun Shou waved his hand.

“Go in!”

Drawing a deep breath, Qin Liangchen stepped into the quiet room.

Both Luo Chen and Murong Qinglian waited outside, patiently hoping for good news.

Sun Shou couldn’t sit still, and he started chatting with Luo Chen and Murong Qinglian.

“Charging three thousand Spirit Stones is not expensive at all. Even within the Yu Ding Sword Sect, it would cost at least two thousand Spirit Stones.”

“The one who’s reattaching Qin’s limb this time is True Disciple Luo Tianhong. The method he uses is named the Golden Silkworm Continuation Technique.” Through his introduction, Luo Chen came to realize the credit standing of Luo Tianhong.

Coming from a prestigious family, his own talent was also superior, which earned him status as a true disciple early on.

In addition to his impressive sword cultivation, he also possessed exceptional medicinal techniques.

In other words, he was not only a sword cultivator but also a healer, and he even showed excellent accomplishments in appraising and auctioning treasures.

The reason why he came to the Great River District was to accomplish a required task for reaching the Foundation Establishment level.

Once the task was completed, he could cultivate in seclusion.

When he reached the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, he could even compete for the position of Yu Ding Seed Cultivator.

If successful, there was a high chance that he would become a Golden Core Ascendant Master in the future!

“When reattaching the limb, parts of Qin’s own muscles and bones will be transplanted. Along with the gold strands spat out by the Blue Golden Silkworm. Only in this way can the new arm properly integrate with the original body and be manipulated freely.”

“Fortunately, Qin has a Gold Spirit Root, making it relatively cheaper to use Blue Golden Silkworm Thread. Otherwise, we would have had to use either Sky Fragrance Restoration or Black Flame Restoration Technique.”

“Both of those techniques could only be performed by a Golden Core Elder within our sect, and the cost of which would be beyond your affordability.” Listening to Sun Shou’s lengthy explanations, the worry in Murong Qinglian’s heart gradually eased.

She carefully asked about any precautions that should be taken after the new limb was attached and how to get familiarized with it.

Sun Shou did not keep anything from her and carefully advised her.

Suddenly…

“Ahh!!!”

A piercingly painful scream resonated from the quiet room.

Luo Chen raised his brows. The quiet room was set up with a sound-isolating array method after all!

Just how intense was the pain that it made even Big Brother Qin unable to suppress his cries, which burst out and broke through the sound-isolating array method?

In an instant, Murong Qinglian clenched her hands tightly, her fingers interlocking with each other.

Bruises appeared on her delicate, white fingers.

Sun Shou sighed, “Let’s hope he can tough it out. This kind of surgical procedure is rarely used within the Sword Sect due to the extreme pain it causes, which is hard for ordinary people to tolerate.”

“You two should wait here; I have something else I need to take care of.”

“Take care, Elder Sun.”

“Take care, Elder Sun.”

Murong Qinglian continued to wait outside the quiet room.

Luo Chen accompanied Sun Shou a little longer, casually asking about the progress of the takeover of the Broken Mountain Gang’s former shops in the Outer City.

When he returned, there was no sound inside or outside the quiet room.

A tall and straight man, handsome like jade, was walking out from inside.

Luo Tianhong!

Luo Chen recognized him.

During the auction, he had represented Yu Ding Sword Sect as the host and auctioneer.

In contrast with his enthusiastic demeanor at the auction, he seemed cold and detached in private.

Without even giving Murong Qinglian a glance, he walked straight past her.

Luo Chen immediately stepped aside, respectfully lowering his head.

Suddenly…

The steps stopped in front of Luo Chen.

Indistinctly, a gaze watched Luo Chen deeply for a moment.

Then he resumed his steps.

Luo Chen only heard one sentence by his ear.

“The surgery was very successful. Go in again after three hours.”

Luo Chen was taken aback and raised his head. However, the figure had already disappeared.

“Why did he treat me differently?”

“Was it because of Mi Shuhua or Miao Wen?”

Luo Chen was puzzled and quickly told the conversation to Murong Qinglian.

Left with no choice, the two could only wait anxiously outside the door.

Only after three hours did they carefully push the door open.

With just one glance, Murong Qinglian covered her mouth. Two lines of clear tears flowed down her cheeks.

A man lay naked on the jade bed.

The abdomen had been opened, two ribs were missing, and some medicinal powder was sprinkled on the flesh, prompting slow healing.

On both thighs were large missing chunks of flesh.

The right arm, once empty, now held a frail arm similar to that of a teenager, making it look particularly grotesque.

Strands of golden thread, like living beings, crawled out and crawled back into the flesh of arm.

Next to the body, a quiet, gray silkworm lay flat.

Luo Chen stepped forward, packed the gray silkworm into a jade box.

According to Sun Shou’s warning, after undergoing the operation to attach a limb using the Golden Silkworm Continuation Technique, the corpse of the Blue Golden Silkworm was to be combined with plentiful spirit medicine containing predestined Qi and made into a soup. The patient would then drink it, which helps promote healing..
