Mad Doctor No. 9

The ceremony was presided over by an elderly man in a black robe, whose face was not visible as he had his back to the window.

He held a bone staff and muttered incantations.

The stone platform was covered with blood-red runes, emanating an aura of evil.

"Su Yun, who told you to meddle and leak our secret?"

Su Yun struggled and said, "Are you crazy? Let go!"

"Don't worry, I won't let you die in vain." The old man grinned menacingly. "With your blood as the key, I will unlock the Eye of Cloud Dream, and I will make your death worthwhile. When the divine messenger descends, you will gain another form of immortality."

Wang Tian suddenly realized.

Su Yun is not a member of the Eternal Life Society, but a genuine cultural relics expert. She discovered the Eternal Life Society's conspiracy, which is why she was kidnapped here.

He couldn't just stand by and watch her die.

However, the enemy has a large number of people, so a direct attack is definitely not an option.

He looked around and noticed a ventilation shaft at the back of the temple.

He went in quietly.

Inside the temple, the sacrificial ceremony had reached a crucial juncture.

The old man made a cut on Su Yun's wrist, and a drop of blood fell onto the stone platform.

As the crimson runes lit up, the earth trembled!

"The seal has been broken!"

Just then, a flash of silver light appeared! All the members of the Eternal Life Society around the stone platform were pierced by silver needles and fell to the ground.

Wang Tian appeared like a ghost and struck the old man with a palm!

The old man reacted quickly, swinging his bone staff to block Wang Tian's attack.

The two exchanged blows and were both sent flying backward.

"Wang Tian?!" The old man's gaze sharpened. "What are you doing here?"

Wang Tian did not answer, and quickly released the restrictions on Su Yun.

Su Yun whispered weakly, "Be careful, the opponent is a priest of the Eternal Life Society, skilled in evil magic..."

Sacrifice? Wang Tian remembered reading in the materials that there were traditional schools of thought in the Immortal Life Society, such as "sacrifice" and "shamanism," as well as scientific schools such as "doctors" and "professors."

"Young man, you've ruined my plans," the priest said coldly. "But it doesn't matter, your blood will be even more effective."

He muttered incantations, and black energy swirled around his bone staff.

The black energy condensed into a skull and lunged at Wang Tian!

Wang Tian's golden needle shot out and pierced through the skull.

However, the black energy was merely dispersed and then reformed—physical attacks were ineffective against it!

"Useless." The priest sneered. "It's formed from resentment; without the utmost yang energy, it's simply impossible..."

Before he could finish speaking, Wang Tian's divine genes erupted, and beams of golden light emanated from his body! Under the golden light, the black energy melted away like spring snow!

"What?!" the priest exclaimed in shock. "You actually possess divinity?"

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Wang Tian moved closer.

The priest's evil magic was very strong, but his close combat ability was average, and he was quickly suppressed.

Seeing that something was wrong, he took out a black ball and smashed it on the ground.

"Bang!" A plume of black smoke shot into the sky, obstructing visibility.

When the smoke and dust cleared, there was no longer any sign of the sacrificial ceremony on the ground.

Wang Tian didn't chase after them, but instead took Su Yun and left first.

Zhang Qingyun and Qin Yuwei have dealt with the members of the Eternal Life Society outside the temple.

The four people quickly retreated.

As soon as we came down the mountain, we heard sirens blaring on the island, and searchlights were everywhere.

Qin Yuwei said anxiously, "They've discovered us!"

"Run to the lake!" Wang Tian, ​​carrying the weakened Su Yun, took the lead and rushed forward.

The Eternal Life Society's pursuers arrived quickly, in large numbers, and armed with heavy weapons.

Just as they were about to be surrounded, a bright light suddenly appeared on the lake. It was Elder Chi Jiu and Elder Zhang Xuanling, leading a group of people in a small boat, coming to their rescue!

Elder Chi Jiu shouted, "Get on the boat!"

Everyone jumped onto the large ship and quickly left.

The Eternal Life Society's bullets struck the hull, but the ship was clearly modified and armored, so it was unharmed.

After escaping danger, Su Yun recovered and said gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Wang, for saving my life. I'm sorry for keeping what happened from you before."

It turns out that Su Yun had discovered the Eternal Life Society's tomb raiding and artifact collection activities a long time ago, and had been secretly investigating them.

She approached Wang Tian with the intention of using him, but she never thought of hurting him.

"Do you know who that priest is?" Wang Tian asked.

Su Yun's expression turned solemn: "This person claims to be the High Priest of Yunmeng, sent by the Eternal Life Society to oversee the investigation of the Dongting Lake ruins. I learned from him that the Eye of Yunmeng can only be fully opened on the night of the full moon, using the blood of three guardians of the bloodline."

In three days, it will be a full moon.

Wang Tian frowned: "The three guardian bloodlines?"

Su Yun looked at Qin Yuwei and said, "Miss Qin, if I'm not mistaken, your Qin family should also be a member of the bloodline guardians, right? Descendants of Shennong!"

Qin Yuwei was taken aback. She had always thought that her family was just an ordinary family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners.

Wang Tian suddenly realized.

No wonder the Qin family was able to obtain a fragmented copy of the "Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica," and no wonder Qin Yuwei possessed such exceptional talent in medicine.

"Let's use our blood to open this gates," Wang Tian said in a deep voice. "So, the Eternal Life Society will be targeting us for the next three days."

The ship was completely silent.

A resolute glint flashed in Wang Tian's eyes: "Come on. I want to see just how capable this Yunmeng Priest really is."

After returning to the ancient town, Wang Tian began preparations.

First and foremost, it's about becoming stronger.

He decided to take the risk and develop the "Shennong Heavenly Eye." Although time was short, if he succeeded, it would be of great help to him.

Outside the town is a small hill with an ancient pine forest.

On the night of the full moon, Wang Tian carried the bamboo slips and went up the mountain alone.

According to the bamboo slips, at midnight, facing the Big Dipper, one should use nine needles to insert into nine acupoints, including the center of the eyebrows, the temples, and the jade pillow, to draw starlight into the body and open the ancestral aperture.

The risks involved are significant; a single misstep can damage the brain, leading to dementia in mild cases and death in severe cases.

But Wang Tian had no other choice.

Midnight.

Wang Tian sat cross-legged and took out nine special gold needles from his bosom.

Take a deep breath, and the first silver needle is inserted into the Yintang acupoint between the eyebrows.

Intense pain! It felt like a red-hot iron rod being plunged deep into his brain! Wang Tian gritted his teeth and thrust in again and again.

When all nine silver needles were inserted, his whole body was bathed in starlight.

His consciousness gradually blurred, and he saw countless illusions: ancient ancestors tasting hundreds of herbs, Shennong pioneering medicine, and the millennia-long struggle between the Guardians and the Eternal Life Society...

"Stay true to yourself!" "Remember, the purpose of the 'Heavenly Eye' is not to spy, but to protect!"

Wang Tian came to his senses.

The intense pain disappeared, replaced by a clarity I had never experienced before.
