My Master Knows It All

1379: Chapter 331_2 1379: Chapter 331_2 Luo Zhen looked at Cao Zhen, a contemplative expression flashing across his face.

After a brief pause, he spoke: “I’m not necessarily trying to profit from you, but treating your injuries requires the refinement of certain pills, and the medicinal ingredients needed are simply too numerous and precious.

First of all, the most severe part of your injury does not come from an external source but from yourself.

I don’t know what method you employed, but somehow, at the moment of danger, you must have unleashed some kind of secret technique or utilized a special treasure.

That treasure has an intrinsic connection to your own being.

One could say that the treasure to you is akin to a Golden Core to a cultivator in the Golden Core Stage.

And then, when that special treasure exploded, you suffered a backlash as a result.

Am I correct?”

As Luo Zhen spoke, a hint of pride once again flickered across his features.

When he was inspecting Cao Zhen’s injuries earlier, he had been stunned for quite a while.

He even momentarily wondered if Cao Zhen had self-destructed his Golden Core, but the injury clearly didn’t match that of a self-detonated core.

This was precisely why he had spent so long examining it.

Throughout the whole Eastern Province, apart from himself, there were at most three people capable of diagnosing Cao Zhen’s injuries with such clarity.

Cao Zhen gave a slight nod, affirming Luo Zhen’s assessment.

The onlookers surrounding them were even more astounded upon seeing this.

“Master Luo is truly extraordinary.”

“To perceive so much just by using the pulse-taking techniques of mortals?”

“Master Luo’s pulse-reading methods must be fundamentally different from the simple techniques of mortals.”

Listening to the compliments from the crowd, Luo Zhen nodded slightly and said, “Of course they’re different.

However, even the medical techniques of mortals have their merits.

Before we became cultivators, we were also mortals.

At the end of the day, our bodies are inherently the same.

We—”

Before finishing his thought, Luo Zhen adopted the demeanor of a venerable master, waving his hand dismissively: “Today, let us focus on treating Cao Zhen.

Another day, I will teach you all the arts of medicine and alchemy.”

He cast his gaze over the disciples of the Dragon Chant Sect and members of the Holy Pill Sect, his eyes filled with amusement.

He genuinely had to thank these people; their flattery both bolstered his reputation and showcased his expertise.

Especially the Holy Pill Sect—Cao Zhen, even though he was from the Eastern Wasteland, must’ve heard of the Holy Pill Sect during his time in the Eastern Province.

A sect so devoted to the pinnacle of alchemy, and yet even they had sent representatives to hear his teachings—how could Cao Zhen not be impressed?

How could he not obediently accept Luo Zhen’s advice, spend a fortune on his pills, and seek his aid in treating his injuries?

Luo Zhen certainly wasn’t trying to extort Cao Zhen just because he’d heard Cao Zhen had access to vast resources within the Heaven Prayers Sect.

No, he was simply standing up for the disciples of Dragon Chant Sect!

With so many outstanding disciples in the Dragon Chant Sect, why did Bi Yue have to choose Cao Zhen of all people?

You’ve charmed away the Immortal admired by everyone in Dragon Chant Sect, so it’s only fair for me to squeeze some money out of you!

Luo Zhen maintained an air of masterful gravitas, murmuring, “Let’s continue discussing how to treat your injuries.

First off, this internal injury caused by backlash requires the best healing pill available—the Heaven-Earth Transforming Divine Pill.”

“You might not have heard of this pill, as very few people know of its existence.

And as far as I know, throughout the entire Eastern Province, there are only myself and Brother Wen Dan of the Holy Pill Sect.”

As he spoke, he cast a glance toward a thin-faced, goateed middle-aged man among the Holy Pill Sect cultivators.

The man, catching Luo Zhen’s gaze, slightly nodded and stroked his goatee, saying, “What Brother Luo Zhen says is indeed the truth.

At present, apart from the two of us, no one else in the Eastern Province can refine the Heaven-Earth Transforming Divine Pill.”

Cao Zhen merely glanced at the goateed man before turning back to Luo Zhen, saying, “I know of the Heaven-Earth Transforming Divine Pill.” What a joke—he possessed Zhang Daoling’s theoretical knowledge of alchemy; was there any pill he didn’t know?

However, Luo Zhen was correct about one thing: the Heaven-Earth Transforming Divine Pill was indeed not an easy pill to refine.

The primary challenge lay in the meticulous control required over the pill fire.

The temperature needed constant adjustment throughout the refinement process.

For Luo Zhen to be capable of refining the Heaven-Earth Transforming Divine Pill was indeed quite remarkable.

“You actually know of the Heaven-Earth Transforming Divine Pill?” Luo Zhen’s face revealed a trace of astonishment.

This country bumpkin from the Eastern Wasteland knew of a pill so rare that even in the Eastern Province, few had knowledge of it?

He…

Ah, that’s right—this guy was a reincarnated Great Ability.

For him to know about this pill was not entirely unexpected.

The fact that he knew of the Heaven-Earth Transforming Divine Pill was even better—it would make him more aware of how difficult it was to refine.

Luo Zhen continued, “Since you are familiar with the Heaven-Earth Transforming Divine Pill, then you must also know about the Void Spirit Replenishment Pill.”

Once again, Cao Zhen nodded.

This Luo Zhen indeed had some ability—if it were up to him, he too would recommend refining the Void Spirit Replenishment Pill.

A smug expression appeared on Luo Zhen’s face as he said, “The Void Spirit Replenishment Pill is even harder to refine than the Heaven-Earth Transforming Divine Pill.

The number of ingredients required is simply overwhelming.

Although it’s not an Immortal Pill, refining it does require Immortal Herbs.

The difference between refining a pill with Immortal Herbs and without is like night and day.

Moreover, with so many ingredients involved, it is necessary to fully extract the medicinal properties of each one while preventing them from clashing.

The level of difficulty in this process… bah, there’s no point in explaining it to you.

You wouldn’t understand.
