Chapter 383: Activating the Yao Shen Ding!

"Yao Shen Ding?"

Hearing those three words, everyone present couldn't help but exclaim.

The Yao Shen Ding, after all, is Taoyuan Village's clan treasure, an ancient artifact passed down from the ancient Yaoshen Dian!

A Yao Lu successor, nominally inherits Yao Lu's Medical Dao heritage.

In reality, the most important thing is to become the new master of the Yao Shen Ding, to be able to trigger its power and restore its divinity.

Everyone present understood this, but no one had spoken it aloud.

Yao Lao's complexion changed abruptly; he never expected the old Village Chief to bring up the Yao Shen Ding.

The old Village Chief, seeing the shocked faces, let a smug smile appear on his face.

"Indeed, Jiang Feng is proficient in pharmacology, and his needle techniques are peerless; to say he could outclass the entire younger generation of Taoyuan Village, I, the old man, see no problem."

The young people of Taoyuan Village present, upon hearing the old Village Chief's words, all lowered their heads, their faces full of shame.

They are usually proud and arrogant, believing themselves heirs of the ancient Yaoshen Dian, the legitimate Medical Dao disciples, looking down on anyone outside, even the Medicine King Valley disciples who are also branches of the Yaoshen Dian, which they sneer at.

But today, Jiang Feng, this outsider, gave them a harsh lesson.

Whether it was the Heavenly Silkworm Needle Technique or the Yin Yang Nine Needles, or even that Poison Pill no medicine could resolve, they all made them understand what is called "there are heavens beyond heavens, people beyond people."

But when the old Village Chief reached this point, his tone shifted again, his eyes turning cold as he looked at Jiang Feng.

"But his mistake lies in the fact that he lacks an ancient bloodline!"

"Yao Lu's inheritance is the divine artifact Yao Shen Ding, and inheriting the Yao Shen Ding, the most crucial part is restoring the artifact's divinity! I ask, how can a person without an ancient bloodline restore the cauldron's divinity?"

"If he cannot achieve this, on what grounds can he accept the Yao Shen Ding's inheritance and become a Yao Lu successor?"

The old Village Chief's voice rang out, causing everyone to fall into contemplation.

Indeed, the Yao Shen Ding is an ancient artifact; only those with an ancient bloodline can truly master it and restore its divinity.

Jiang Feng is an outsider of unknown origin; how could he possibly have an ancient bloodline?

The old Village Chief looked at Zuo Liangchen.

"Although Liangchen's talent is not as great as his, he is still of the Zuo Family direct line! My Zuo Family Patriarch was a Great Being of the ancient Yaoshen Dian, his body flowing with pure ancient blood! If he becomes a Yao Lu successor, there is at least a possibility in the future for the Yao Shen Ding to regain its divinity, something Jiang Feng can never achieve!"

With those words, the old Village Chief, full of smugness, looked at the Five Great Elders.

"Elders, do you think the old man is right?"

The Five Great Elders exchanged glances, their faces showing a look of difficulty.

They all know that restoring the Yao Shen Ding's divinity is a pipe dream.

But as descendants of the Yaoshen Dian, this is a mission etched into their bloodline.

The Village Chief used this to block their mouths; they had nothing to say.

The Gong Family elder hesitated a moment, then stepped forward and bowed to Yao Lao.

"Yao Lao, the Village Chief is right. Though restoring the Yao Shen Ding's divinity is a heavy task, we cannot choose someone destined to fail."

"Jiang Feng is indeed excellent, his Medical Dao achievements far exceed his peers, but to become a Yao Lu successor, which concerns Taoyuan Village's future and the Yao Shen Ding's inheritance, we ask Yao Lao to be cautious!"

The other four elders at this moment also echoed.

"We ask Yao Lao to be cautious!"

In their hearts they all knew that although the old Village Chief's words favored Zuo Liangchen, they indeed hit the crucial point.

The Yao Shen Ding's inheritance requires an ancient bloodline.

Without an ancient bloodline, even if Jiang Feng is extremely powerful, he cannot truly master the Yao Shen Ding, let alone restore its divinity.

Yao Lao, hearing this, swept his cold gaze over the Five Great Elders and the old Village Chief.

"So, if Jiang Feng has an ancient bloodline, you would approve him as a Yao Lu successor?"

The old Village Chief hadn't expected Yao Lao to ask that, and was stunned for a moment.

But he was convinced Jiang Feng could not have an ancient bloodline, so he nodded without hesitation.

"That is natural! If Jiang Feng truly had an ancient bloodline and such outstanding Medical Dao attainment, I would be the first to support him as a Yao Lu successor!"

The Five Great Elders also nodded, indicating agreement.

But how could that be possible?

Ancient bloodline!

Do you really think it's like a big cabbage?

Even within Taoyuan Village, only a few families such as the Zuo Family and Gu Family retain a trace of the thin ancient bloodline.

Jiang Feng, an outsider, how could he possibly have it?

But at that moment, Yao Lao suddenly gave a cold smile, his eyes full of contempt.

"How do you know Jiang Feng lacks an ancient bloodline?"

"What!"

Yao Lao's words, like thunder on flat ground, exploded across the scene!

Everyone turned to Yao Lao, thinking they had misheard.

The old Village Chief's complexion turned pale instantly, his eyes filled with shock.

He pointed at Jiang Feng, his voice trembling.

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! The ancient bloodline is so noble! He is an outsider of unknown origin; how could he possess it? Yao Lao, don't joke!"

Zuo Liangchen's eyes widened even more, his face full of resentment.

"Impossible! How could he have an ancient bloodline?"

The Five Great Elders also all turned to Yao Lao.

Yao Lao gave a faint smile, his eyes full of mystery, and said a line.

"Whether true or false, you will know at once!"

As soon as the words fell, Yao Lao no longer hesitated and, toward Yao Lu, swung his large hand!

Buzz!

A deep, muffled buzz sounded, and throughout Yao Lu Suddenly erupted dazzling The Golden Light.

The light shot upward, illuminating the entire sky of Taoyuan Village.

Immediately, a scene that caused Shock unfolded!

That seemingly ordinary Yao Lu, under the wrap of The Golden Light, slowly rose from the ground, reaching several zhang above the earth.

The originally modest Yao Lu now kept expanding, eventually transforming into a massive bronze cauldron!

The cauldron's body was engraved with intricate Ancient Runes, emitting a massive pressure and a faint medicinal scent.

At the cauldron's mouth, golden airflow spiraled, as if it were alive.

Medicine Divine Cauldron!

Almost everyone Recognition it at first glance.

The Medicine Divine Cauldron floated in midair, The Golden Light illuminated the whole scene, causing everyone to squint.

The Village Chief, looking at the bronze cauldron floating in midair, instantly turned None Shock.

He shouted loudly at Yao Lao.

"Yao Lao, are you insane? To forcibly activate the Medicine Divine Cauldron!"

It should be known that the Medicine Divine Cauldron is an Ancient Artifact, containing supreme power; forcibly activating it not only consumes massive true qi, but may also trigger an Artifact Backlash!

The Village Chief never imagined Yao Lao would, for Jiang Feng, go so far as to forcibly activate the Medicine Divine Cauldron!

The others present were also Shock, their faces filled with Shock.

Although they all knew of the Medicine Divine Cauldron's existence, very few had ever seen its true manifestation.

Now, seeing the Medicine Divine Cauldron floating in midair, exuding massive pressure, everyone felt deep reverence!

Yao Lao ignored the Village Chief's roar, his gaze fixed on the Medicine Divine Cauldron floating in midair.

"Jiang Feng, let them see how you communicate with the Divine Cauldron… also let them see your Ancient Bloodline!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng Immediately stepped forward.

Wow!

The Medicine Divine Cauldron's light surged!
