The five-and-a-half-year-old baby doctor comes to the city to cure those who refuse to listen.

Chapter 56 The Pill is Completed and the Dragon Roars – This Is Quite a Scene

Inside the Nine Dragons Cauldron, eerie blue flames licked the cauldron's walls, emitting a hissing sound.

The 500-year-old He Shou Wu and the Seven Star Life-Sustaining Grass tumbled in the flames, but instead of turning to ashes, they were enveloped in a faint, precious light.

Everyone in the courtyard froze.

Lin Jianguo, Liu Zhen, Wang Dequan, and several other men huddled at the entrance of the main hall, forgetting to breathe.

In the corner of the woodshed, an old man in black, bound like a dumpling, stared wide-eyed and gaped, his face filled with horror.

"Madman... he's a madman..." he growled hoarsely.

"Using yin energy as fire to refine a supremely yang elixir... the yin and yang are reversed; one wrong move and the elixir will be destroyed, and the person will die!"

"This kid... he's got a death wish!"

Zhou Tian hid behind a pillar, peeking out half his head. He looked at Chu Chen, who was standing on the edge of the well, his small face flickering in and out of the blue firelight, and swallowed hard.

"My goodness... Is this alchemy or playing with fire? The special effects are even more intense than those in Investiture of the Gods."

Chu Chen completely ignored the commotion around him.

He sat cross-legged on the edge of the well, his eyes closed, his small hands forming mysterious hand seals.

Time passed by, second by second.

The night grew deeper.

The moon rises in the east and sets in the west

Lin Jianguo was so anxious that he developed several blisters on his lips. He paced back and forth at the door, trying to rush over several times, but Liu Zhen held him back tightly.

"Sir, please don't go over there! The master is at a crucial moment and cannot be disturbed!"

Liu Zhen's eyes shone brightly, his face filled with fervent worship, as if he were witnessing an unprecedented miracle.

Zhou Tian couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep against a pillar. He was woken up by the cold, and went back to sleep several times. Finally, he simply hugged his knees and stared at the blue flame, shivering.

Only the old man in black went from initial shock to cursing, and then to numbness.

He completely gave up thinking.

All he knew was that his life's work of martial arts and metaphysics had been shattered tonight by a five-year-old brat.

Silent all night.

As the first rays of dawn broke through the clouds and shone into the backyard of Jishetang, a faint white light appeared on the horizon.

An unexpected change occurred!

"Buzz—"

Inside the Nine Dragon Cauldron, the dark blue flame that had been burning all night suddenly shrank, its color changing from blue to purple, and then from purple to gold!

"roar--"

A deep, yet seemingly ancient, dragon's roar suddenly erupted from within the cauldron.

The voice wasn't loud, but it carried a powerful pressure that pierced the soul.

Lin Jianguo and the others felt a buzzing in their heads and took several steps back, their faces turning deathly pale.

Zhou Tian had just fallen asleep when the dragon's roar startled him so much that he plopped down on the ground, scrambling and yelling, "Earthquake? Earthquake!"

The old man in black in the woodshed trembled, a trickle of black blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with horror.

"The pill... the pill is finished?!"

"The dragon roars upon the completion of the elixir... This... This is a phenomenon only seen in legendary Heavenly Grade Elixirs!"

Before anyone could react...

"boom!"

A thick, golden beam of light, like a laser cannon, shot into the sky from within the Nine Dragon Cauldron, tearing through the morning mist and shooting towards the heavens!

At this moment, countless eyes throughout the capital city saw this golden pillar of light that pierced through the heavens and the earth.

In a secluded courtyard in the west of the city, an elderly man practicing Tai Chi suddenly stopped, looked up at the sky, and was filled with shock.

In a secret base in the north of the city, a piercing alarm blared through the sky, and countless radars simultaneously locked onto the golden light, only to display a blinding jumble of characters on the screen.

Countless powerful and wealthy people were awakened from their sleep, staring in horror at the miraculous beam of light outside their windows.

"What is that?"

"It's in the direction of Jishetang!"

"Good heavens! Could it be that the Lin family has really invited a deity?"

The backyard of Jishetang was in complete chaos.

The moment the golden light burst forth, a powerful medicinal fragrance mixed with spiritual energy swept through the entire courtyard like a tsunami.

The flowers, plants, and trees in the yard are growing wildly at a rate visible to the naked eye.

A withered pomegranate tree suddenly sprouted new buds and bloomed with fiery red flowers.

Bathed in golden light, Lin Jianguo and the others felt warm all over, and the fatigue and cold of the night were swept away. They felt as if they were ten years younger.

"receive!"

Just then, Chu Chen, who was on the edge of the well, suddenly opened his eyes. He pointed his fingers like a knife and slashed at the Nine Dragon Cauldron in mid-air.

The soaring golden light was instantly severed, rolled back, and disappeared back into the cauldron.

Clang!

The heavy lid of the cauldron shot into the sky, tumbled a few times in the air, and then landed steadily on the ground.

Three streaks of light shot out from the mouth of the cauldron, accompanied by the sound of air being torn apart, and fled in three different directions.

"Trying to run away?"

Chu Chen snorted coldly.

His small body didn't move at all; he simply stretched out three fingers and flicked them three times in the air.

Three invisible energies struck the three streaks of light with pinpoint accuracy.

The three pills that originally wanted to escape seemed to be frozen in mid-air, then obediently flew towards Chu Chen.

Chu Chen was prepared. He took out a small white jade bottle from his pocket and put all three pills into the bottle.

The moment the stopper was put on, the rich medicinal aroma was completely locked in.

After doing all this, Chu Chen's face turned pale, and he swayed, almost falling off the edge of the well.

He leaned against the well's edge, panting heavily.

Refining this batch of pills almost exhausted all of his spiritual energy and physical strength.

"Chen'er!"

Lin Jianguo was the first to react, rushing over in three steps and pulling him into his arms.

"Chen'er, how are you? Don't scare your grandpa!" Lin Jianguo's voice was trembling.

"It's nothing..." Chu Chen shook his head, his small hand tightly clutching the jade bottle. "Let's... let's go save Mom first."

Inside the CT scan room.

Chu Chen poured out a pill from the jade bottle.

The pill was only the size of a longan, crystal clear, like the purest crystal, with faint dragon-shaped patterns flowing across its surface.

This was the simplified version of the "Minor Rejuvenation Pill" that he had spent a whole night refining, using Yin energy as fire and precious medicinal herbs as ingredients.

Although it cannot truly bring the dead back to life, it is enough to repair the damage to the mortal body.

He put the pill into a bowl of water. The pill dissolved upon contact with the water, turning the entire bowl of water a pale gold color and emitting a strange fragrance.

"Sir, this..." Liu Zhen stared at the bowl of water, his eyes wide with disbelief.

"Pry open their mouths." Chu Chen said succinctly.

Liu Zhen hurriedly grabbed a mouth opener and carefully pried open Lin Xiu's mouth.

Chu Chen picked up the bowl and slowly poured the bowl of golden medicine into it.

The moment the medicine enters the throat.

"Drip—drip—drip—"

The electrocardiogram monitor connected to Lin Xiu suddenly emitted a steady and powerful sound.

On the screen, the heart rate line, which was almost stretched into a straight line, began to beat violently and climb steadily.

A healthy blush appeared on Lin Xiu's pale face at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Her breath, which was originally so faint that it was almost imperceptible, became long and strong.

"He's alive! He's alive!" Liu Zhen stared intently at the data on the screen, so excited he was almost incoherent. "His vital signs...all recovered! My God! This is simply a medical miracle! Sir! You've created a legend!"

"thump!"

Lin Jianguo could no longer hold on; his legs gave way, and he collapsed to his knees.

He looked at his daughter on the hospital bed, who was still unconscious but had a rosy complexion and steady breathing. He trembled all over and tears streamed down his face.

He turned around and faced Chu Chen, about to kowtow.

"Grandpa, thank you... no... God..."

"Alright."

Chu Chen stretched out her small hand and covered his forehead.

He was exhausted, leaning against the CT scanner, his face pale and almost translucent.

"He's not quite dead yet, why are you crying?"

Lin Jianguo was stunned, tears still on his face, unsure whether to cry or laugh.

Chu Chen ignored him. He shook the jade bottle in his hand, looked at the two remaining Lesser Rejuvenation Pills inside, stroked his smooth chin, and began to seriously calculate.

Grandpa, do you still have money?

"Huh?" Lin Jianguo was stunned again.

"This batch of pills is a bit expensive." Chu Chen frowned and counted on his fingers, "Five hundred years of He Shou Wu, Seven Star Life-Sustaining Grass, and all the effort I put in... I can't let it all go to waste."

He shook the jade bottle, a greedy smile spreading across his face.

"These two remaining ones will fetch a good price."

"Otherwise, how will we buy Mom bird's nest, shark fin, pig brain, and walnuts to nourish her body?"
