Chapter 357: Chapter 142 The Secret of the Grey Mist, Obtaining the Treasure Tai Sui_6

Huh~

Chen Jie looked down and discovered the piece of Tai Sui meat that the old blind man had carved wasn’t taken away. This large piece of Tai Sui meat was enough to refine ten Tai Sui Pills.

Those Tai Sui Pills are truly treasures. Although they are restorative medicines, Chen Jie felt that below the Iron Bone Realm, a single Tai Sui Pill could likely help achieve a breakthrough.

But how exactly should the Tai Sui Pills be refined?

As Chen Jie pondered, he saw that on the ground, the old blind man had actually left behind a line of words.

[Tai Sui meat, will ensure you are safe tonight, leave quickly at dawn, do not enter lightly.]

[This meat, should be purely refined with Alchemy Fire, mixed with honey to be shaped into honey pills, do not show it to people carelessly, lest it brings trouble upon you.]

Reading the content written above, Chen Jie grinned, ”That old blind man, aside from not being handsome, his swordsmanship and arithmetic are indeed unsurpassed in this era, truly deserving of the ’A’ rank.”

With that thought, Chen Jie placed the Tai Sui meat beside him. It seemed as if the meat could emit some special scent, and the wild beasts nearby dared not approach.

Now he just needed to quietly wait for dawn.

Thinking thus, Chen Jie took out the three Copper Coins given to him by the blind man, and saw that the back of the coins were engraved with plum blossoms, and the front bore two big characters: [Taiping]

Chen Jie looked and knew about Taiping; he had seen Taiping Tongbao from the former Song era before, but ones like these were rare.

Actually, he didn’t know that the Yuan Family was a grand Feng Shui family with a long heritage, known as one of the three great Feng Shui families under heaven.

These three families were, respectively, the Dragon and Tiger Zhang Heavenly Master, Military Marquis Zhuge, and the Zhou Yi Yuan Family.

When the former Song era minted Taiping Tongbao, special versions of these coins were given to the Heavenly Master Mansion, the Zhuge family, and the Yuan Family as a sign of favor.

The Yuan Family coins had plum blossoms on the back, symbolizing plum blossom trigrams, the Zhuge family had trigrams representing the Eight Diagrams behind theirs, and the Heavenly Master Mansion coins bore a dragon and a tiger, representing the Dragon and Tiger Zhang Heavenly Master.

Trudge, trudge, trudge...

The old blind man, wielding a cane, strolled leisurely amidst the haze, emitting a pale yellow Gang Qi from his body that kept the surrounding mist at bay. And then, within the mist, countless blood-red eyes fixed on this little human coming towards the deeper parts.

But none dared to attack easily.

In their eyes, behind this little human, there seemed to be a towering giant whose every step shook the earth and shattered their spirits, deterring them from advancing.

Only the Strongest among humans, martial artists above the Condensing God Realm, could condense a Martial God Body!

And this man could!

Trudge, trudge...

The old blind man proceeded like this until he finally stopped at a decrepit altar.

”We’ve arrived.”

Then he walked a circle around the altar, felt about his person, and drawing out something—what it was unsure—he set it around the altar. He then slowly ascended the altar.

He gently tapped the ground three times with his cane, and in an instant, the altar emitted endless white light.

Under the white light, the old blind man’s clothes began to burn, and with a snap, the sunglasses on his face exploded, even the skin on his face starting to char.

Whoosh!

Just at that moment, a brilliant white light flared, and the next moment, he had vanished from the spot.

Simultaneously, thousands of miles away in the depths of the mist on Fengyang Mountain, Anhui, Haozhou, an altar there suddenly lit up.

The next moment, a naked human appeared within the altar, startling a giant gorilla nearby, which resembled a King Kong, into hooting and running off.

”Alas, it’s always like this.”

The naked human within the altar threw off the half-burnt human skin mask from his face, and the next moment, an incomparably handsome man appeared in the middle of the altar.

The man stood eight feet tall, his face like white jade, his body well-proportioned and extremely handsome.

With just this face alone, he could captivate the hearts of countless young girls across the world.

His black hair, with a streak of white at the temples, carried an unrestrained and dashing air.

It wasn’t an exaggeration to call him the world’s most handsome man.

Gone was the stooping, wrinkled, gaunt old man appearance he had when he met with Chen Jie.

In fact, his actual age was not small, but his face seemed to defy the marks of time.

The man, now naked, searched around the altar with his cane, finally finding a hole where he reached in and pulled out a bundle, which contained various garments.

He dressed himself and put on a prepared mask, completing his disguise.

Now he transformed into a heroic figure of the Jianghu, rugged-looking, and his sunglasses enlarged a bit.

Gathering up the pills and fragments that had fallen on the ground, Yuan Sanjia, holding his cane, began his descent down the mountain.

How he would find Zhu Chongba shall be put aside for now. Let’s return to Chen Jie.

After sitting contracted all night, the sunlight finally pierced the fog. Chen Jie stretched his weary body and drank the last few drops of water from his gourd; then he picked up today’s gains and headed back.

The way back was uneventful but alarming. With Chen Jie’s carefulness, he finally emerged from the fog.

This time his harvest was truly not trivial—Blood Ganoderma: eight or nine stalks guarded, one of six hundred years, one of four hundred years, and 300 of two hundred years, and three of a hundred years each.

Then, the main medicine for refining Bone Strengthening Pills—the White Bone Fruit and King Centipede.

Additionally, some high-grade herbs which, if combined, could make some high-end Elixirs.

One could say this trip was plentifully fruitful—earning a handsome bounty!

Chen Jie was thrilled, humming a tune as he returned to Xiantao Village. By this time, the Fishing Guild’s disciples seemed to be growing in number. Chen Jie evaded the search and saw Wu Zhong.

Wu Zhong saw Chen Jie and promptly said to him, ”Brother Hong has brought the auxiliary medicines over, they are hidden in Xia Tao Village. Also, your father-in-law is there with Brother Hong guarding those medicines, and he’s also found his Alchemy Furnace. Everything is ready; as soon as you get there we can start refining.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie nodded, ”Thank you, Uncle Zhong, I’ll go find Brother Hong and the others right away.”

Uncle Zhong warned, ”Be careful with everything, don’t worry about matters outside, Brother Hong said Yunjin and the others are being looked after by Miss Hua and haven’t faced any troubles.”
