Chapter 234: Chapter 234 Ye Linglong Fulfills her Promise

Lin Tiance is sick...

Upon hearing Lin Dong’s question, Bai Zhonglou smiled and said,

"Dragon Lord, it seems you are also aware of some matters concerning Lin Tiance. Indeed, upon him does afflict a strange disease!"

"Perhaps heaven has favored him too greatly, fearing that the whole world would be envious of him, thus it imposed upon him this peculiar sickness!"

"The affliction revealed itself when he was three years old. It is said that during an outbreak, his body felt as though it were burning atop flames."

"Apparently, it’s due to his constitution!"

"A Nine-Yang Body causes the pure Yang Qi within him to be trapped, unable to be released, leading to that bizarre illness!"

"It’s only by relying on the immense wealth of the Lin family and the myriad Heavenly and Earthly treasures provided by his master, King Kunlun, that he’s been able to survive until now!"

"It is said that if the affliction isn’t cured at its root, he can only live for thirty years!"

"He is already over twenty years old now; if it can’t be completely cured, he has but a few years left to live..."

After hearing Bai Zhonglou’s elaboration, Lin Dong gained a complete understanding.

"So that’s how it is!"

Lin Dong suddenly recalled some introductions he had read regarding the ’Nine-Yang Body’.

In fact, there are ways to completely cure the Nine-Yang Body.

It’s not an incurable disease.

It’s just very difficult!

There are two methods for curing it.

The first is to find a ’Nine-Dragon Body’, a constitution even more powerful than the ’Nine-Yang Body’, and have the person with the ’Nine-Dragon Body’ offer their bone marrow to him.

But this method would result in the donor’s death. Even if there really was someone in the world with such a constitution, no one would be willing.

Who would wish to sacrifice themselves for the sake of another?

Of course, the most important thing is that the ’Nine-Dragon Body’ is even rarer than the ’Nine-Yang Body’, a rarity that might emerge only once in a few thousand years!

Ancient books have rumored that Chi You had possessed a ’Nine-Yang Body’, while the Yellow Emperor, who defeated him, had a ’Nine-Dragon Body’. Of course, these are but legends, not necessarily true!

Thus, this first method is clearly unfeasible.

As for the second method,

it involves finding seven women with special constitutions.

Through Yin-Yang harmony with these seven uniquely endowed women, his disease could be thoroughly cured.

But the likelihood of that is even slimmer!

Because seven women with special constitutions are even more difficult to find!

Hence, Lin Tiance’s strange disease is essentially like an incurable one.

There is no cure!

Even someone skilled in the Medical Arts like Lin Dong can only stand by powerlessly.

He can only extend his life through various Heavenly and Earthly treasures!

Of course, if he consumes enough of these treasures, his life can indeed be prolonged, but even so, he would still not live past thirty!

It appears not so easy to be a chosen son of heaven!

As Lin Dong and Bai Zhonglou were talking inside the car, they had already arrived not far from the sanatorium.

"Dragon Lord, we’ve arrived!"

"Mm-hm."

Lin Dong nodded, and after the two alighted from the car, they no longer spoke of matters regarding Lin Tiance and the Lin family.

Instead, they entered the sanatorium one after another!

Upon arrival at the sanatorium, the two visited Dragon Shadow.

Like before, Dragon Shadow lay in bed, quiet as a vegetative person, with various medical equipment attached.

It’s a pity that Lin Dong has not yet reached the ’Inner Qi Shape Transformation’ from the Fourth Stage of the Nine Shifts Longevity Scripture, and thus cannot save him.

"Senior Dragon Shadow, do you know if I’m related to the previous Dragon Lord in any way?" Lin Dong quietly pondered.

"Could he... could he be my father?"

With complex emotions in his eyes, Lin Dong considered this possibility.

"Dragon Lord, the empty room you requested has been arranged!" Just then, Bai Zhonglou spoke up.

For the moment, Lin Dong decided not to dwell on these thoughts. The most important thing now was to cultivate.

He turned and left the room, heading to an adjacent empty one by himself.

The space was not large; Lin Dong entered and sat cross-legged at the center of the room.

He then took out the century-old python’s gall bladder from his person.

A dense green energy swirled around the gall, its potent power comparable to ginseng that had matured for hundreds of years.

Without any hesitation, he swallowed the gall in one gulp!

"Gulp~~" As the gall dissolved in his mouth, a surge of intensely bitter taste rampaged through his taste buds.

"This snake gall is too bitter!" Lin Dong complained inwardly, almost spitting it out.

But fortunately, his willpower was extraordinary, and he forcibly suppressed the urge.

Once the gall entered his body, Lin Dong quickly initiated the cultivation method of the Nine Shifts Longevity secret and began the breathing exercises.

The surging power, drawn by Lin Dong’s cultivation, flowed through his body’s meridians, eventually reaching the center of his Dantian.

Within the Dantian, the Inner Qi grew denser and denser.

The process of cultivation was somewhat monotonous, but Lin Dong was accustomed to it.

Having spent several years studying ind reclusion with his master, Daoist Qing Shan, in a secluded mountain temple, he could bear that monotony.

Not to mention just for a short while!

After about one hour of cultivation, he finally refined the energy of the century-old python’s gall bladder completely!

At that moment, using his X-Ray like Inner View, he could see that the Inner Qi within his Dantian had become several times denser than before.

"Only when the Inner Qi within the Dantian is fully saturated and transforms into a form akin to water, will I have reached the ’Inner Qi Shape Transformation’ stage!"

He estimated roughly that it would take the energy of about three such snake galls to reach that level.

There was no way around it; the Nine Shifts Longevity was such that the further one advanced, the more energy was needed for cultivation!

But he was not discouraged and would take his time.

Presently on him, there was a Luminous Pearl imbued with dense Negative Energy.

Absorbing that Negative Energy could also increase his strength.

However, there was no rush to absorb it immediately.

Mainly because he had just absorbed the energy from the gall bladder, continuing to absorb it further would not be beneficial for the transformation.

Suddenly, at this moment, Lin Dong’s phone rang.

He took out his phone and saw that it was Ye Linglong calling.

Curious, he answered the call.

"Miss Ye, what do you need from me?"

On the phone, a somewhat tipsy voice came through, "Lin... Master Lin, you must come quickly... I want to fulfill my promise..."

"Tonight, I will... I will give myself to you..."
