Chapter 30: First Generation

Tang Yun opened his eyes, sharp light shooting from them, and the Chaos Medical Qi swept out like a storm, swallowing all the surrounding Gu insects!

The black energy of the Shennong Cauldron fragment also gradually dissipated, returning to its original luster.

Tang Yun slowly stood up, looking at the scene before him, his heart filled with shock.

He had actually merged the powers of the Medicine King and the Gu King into one, creating the Chaos Medical Qi!

Just then, a voice sounded in his ear: "You did well, my pawn."

Tang Yun looked up abruptly, seeing an old man in white robes standing in the air, a cold smile on his face.

"Who are you?" Tang Yun asked vigilantly.

"I am the Heavenly Medical Sect Master, and also the first Medicine King." The old man said lightly.

Tang Yun was startled. Heavenly Medical Sect Master? First Medicine King? Could it be that all of this was a trap set by him?

"Why did you do this?" Tang Yun roared.

"Because the bloodline flowing in your body is mine, you are destined to be my pawn." The first Medicine King sneered.

"You wish!" Tang Yun roared, tearing the space of the Nine Heavens, stepping out: "I am the rule!"

The first Medicine King's expression changed drastically; he hadn't expected Tang Yun to possess such powerful strength!

"You..."

Tang Yun ignored him, his eyes filled with killing intent.

He walked toward the first Medicine King step by step, each step as if stepping on the first Medicine King's heart.

"You... you can't kill me!" The first Medicine King shouted in terror.

"Why can't I?" Tang Yun sneered.

"Because... because..." The first Medicine King stammered, unable to say anything.

"Because you are afraid of death?" A flash of mockery crossed Tang Yun's eyes.

The first Medicine King's face turned blue and white, but he dared not refute.

"Since you are afraid of death, then go die!" Tang Yun slapped out, and the first Medicine King instantly turned into fly ash.

The first Medicine King turned into fly ash, but Tang Yun didn't feel the relief he had imagined; instead, his heart felt even heavier. A sense of desolation surged into his heart, as if he had lost a part of himself.

"You did well, my pawn." This voice still echoed in his ears, like a curse, unable to be shaken off.

He looked down at the Medicine King Sword in his hand; the sword body was still cold and sharp, but it seemed to be stained with a trace of sorrow.

The Taixu Medicine Cauldron slowly shrank, finally turning into a silver suit of armor, returning to Lin Xiyue's body. Lin Xiyue's face was pale, supporting herself on the cauldron wall, barely standing.

"Xiyue, are you okay?" Tang Yun hurriedly stepped forward to support her, asking with concern.

Lin Xiyue shook her head, forcing a smile: "I'm fine, just too much consumption."

Tang Yun hugged her into his arms with heartache, and a warm current surged from his body, slowly flowing into Lin Xiyue's body.

Lin Xiyue groaned comfortably, her complexion gradually returning to a rosy state.

Suddenly, the Shennong Cauldron fragment trembled slightly, and a powerful suction force sucked all the surrounding Gu insects into the cauldron.

At the same time, the Medicine King Sword also emitted a humming sound, resonating with the Shennong Cauldron fragment.

Inside the cauldron, thousands of Gu insects bumped around like trapped beasts, unable to escape. The sword aura of the Medicine King Sword crisscrossed within the cauldron, forming sword nets, dividing and surrounding the Gu insects.

Tang Yun felt a strange power brewing within the cauldron; he vaguely understood that this was the "Heaven, Earth, and Man" Three Talents Formation!

The Shennong Cauldron is "Earth," the Taixu Armor is "Man," and the Medicine King Sword is "Heaven"; the three merged into one, forming a perfect cycle, thoroughly purifying the source of the Gu poison.

With the operation of the Three Talents Formation, the black energy within the cauldron gradually dissipated, and the Gu insects gradually turned into powder.

Tang Yun felt a powerful force awakening within his body; his Ren and Du meridians were opened, and his cultivation broke through to the Innate Realm!

"Is this the power of the Innate Realm?" Tang Yun clenched his fists, feeling the surging power within his body, unable to help but feel excited.

Just then, a cold voice sounded in his mind: "Hehehe, you thought it was over? We are one!"

Tang Yun was startled; this voice was none other than the Gu King!

He looked up abruptly, seeing a man in black robes appearing out of thin air, a trace of evil charm on his face.

"Who are you?" Tang Yun asked vigilantly.

The black-robed man laughed wildly: "I am you, and you are me! I am the Gu King, and also your past life!"

Tang Yun was struck by lightning; he remembered the records in the remnant pages of his mother's diary. Could it be... could it be that his past life really was?

"Impossible! I don't believe it!" Tang Yun roared.

The Gu King sneered: "Believe it or not, but you are destined to be my pawn! Your fate will be controlled by me!"

As soon as the Gu King's words fell, an eerie force shrouded Tang Yun, and his body trembled uncontrollably, as if an invisible hand were manipulating his fate.

"Is this the power of the Law of Causality?" Tang Yun's heart was filled with fear and despair.

The Gu King laughed wildly: "That's right! This is the Law of Causality! I can change your past and control your future! Everything about you will be controlled by me!"

Just then, Lin Xiyue suddenly stood in front of Tang Yun, her eyes filled with determination: "You won't hurt him!"

The Gu King sneered disdainfully: "Overestimating yourself!"

He slapped out, and Lin Xiyue was instantly sent flying, falling heavily to the ground, blood spraying from her mouth.

"Xiyue!" Tang Yun's eyes were about to split, and a towering rage burned in his heart.

He stood up abruptly, his eyes filled with killing intent: "In this life, I only fight for protection!"

Tang Yun held the Medicine King Sword and pierced it into his own heart without hesitation!

"Reverse Heaven and Earth!"

A powerful vitality surged from his body, repairing his damaged body.

His lifespan also decreased by ten years, and his vitality dropped by 10%.

"You're crazy!" The Gu King shouted in terror.

Tang Yun ignored him, his eyes filled with endless killing intent.

He walked toward the Gu King step by step, each step as if stepping on the Gu King's heart.

"You... you can't kill me!" The Gu King shouted in terror. "We are the same person!"

"Precisely because we are the same person, I must kill you!" Tang Yun sneered. "I want to sever this karma!"

Tang Yun slashed down with his sword, and the Gu King let out a miserable scream, his body gradually dissipating...

Just then, a powerful aura descended from the sky, and an old man in white robes appeared in the air.

"Tang Yun, you really didn't disappoint me." The old man had an appreciative smile on his face.

"You are..." Tang Yun asked vigilantly.

"I am the President of the Holy Medical Society." The old man said.

"'President of the Holy Medical Society'?" Tang Yun frowned slightly; he had never heard of this organization.

The old man stroked his beard and laughed: "That's right, the Holy Medical Society is the world's largest medical organization, controlling 90% of the world's medicinal herb market."

Tang Yun was startled. 90%? This was simply a behemoth!

The old man continued: "We have been watching you; your medical arts and talent are very outstanding, and I hope you can join the Holy Medical Society and work with us to benefit humanity." ===== CHAPTER 31 =====
