Chapter 757: One New Senior Brother
Although the furnishings in the room were simple, the faint medicinal fragrance in the air made Jiang Yun feel at home, just like his grandfather’s house.
"My place is a bit simple, but please bear with me, sect master!"
At that moment, the old man in yellow robes had a genuine smile on his face.
When Jiang Yun heard how the old man addressed him, he quickly waved his hand and said, "Senior, I can’t live up to that title."
The old man’s expression turned serious and he said, "Considering I am also a disciple of the Grand Medicine Sect, and you are the sect master, there’s nothing you can’t handle!"
Jiang Yun sighed and said, "I was in a hurry earlier, so I didn’t explain things clearly. The relationship between me and the Grand Medicine Sect is quite complex. Let me explain in detail."
Although the old man looked puzzled, he sat down as instructed.
Jiang Yun naturally didn’t hold back from telling all about the ups and downs between himself and the Grand Medicine Sect.
"Do you understand now, elder? Even though I received the inheritance from the Medicine God, as a disciple with a master in the Seeking-Tao Sect, I cannot change masters and join the Medicine God’s sect."
"I wanted the Grand Medicine Sect to join the Seeking-Tao Sect because both of our sects had just experienced the Calamity of the Mountain-Sea World. Only by uniting can we better survive, it’s not about wanting the Grand Medicine Sect to disappear forever."
"If the Grand Medicine Sect is willing and has the power to protect itself, they can choose to leave the Seeking-Tao Sect at any time and restore the name of the Grand Medicine Sect."
After listening to Jiang Yun’s story, the elder’s face showed a sudden understanding, and he nodded after a moment of contemplation, saying, "Actually, I am not a direct disciple of the Medicine God, my ancestor was the Medicine God’s disciple!"
Jiang Yun was not surprised by this revelation.
Because the time of the Medicine God’s existence was too long ago from now, even if one were his disciple, it would be unlikely for them to still be alive.
"My name is Jin Cunyao, and I am the current patriarch of the Golden Toad clan."
After introducing his identity, Jin Cunyao told Jiang Yun about the Medicine God.
Actually, the Medicine God’s experiences in the past are almost the same as the rumors.
The Medicine God was imprisoned in the Dao Prison’s seven layers where he took on two disciples.
Despite the lack of resources in the Dao Prison, the Medicine God’s skills in medicine were hardly affected. Instead, he developed the "Everything Turns into Medicine" technique to perfection and eventually created a Detox Pill.
When this Detox Pill is taken, it not only completely removes toxins from the body but also forms a special protective barrier on the surface of the body, preventing toxins from entering the body again.
The appearance of the Detox Pill attracted the attention of the Dao God Temple, leading them to capture the Medicine God and causing one of his disciples to die while the other went insane.
The insanity was real, and the insane disciple was also taken away by the Dao God Temple.
However, the death was fake!
The disciple who faked his death was named Leaf Cloudstone. He used The Art of Rebirth through Flame Extinguishment to burn himself into ashes in front of the Dao God Temple’s people, allowing him to truly escape danger.
Later on, Ye Tianshi was rescued by the Golden Toad clan.
At that time, the Golden Toad clan was very weak and not well-known, but they were skilled in using Earth Power.
Ye Tianshi had nowhere else to go, so he decided to stay with the Golden Toad clan to repay them for saving his life.
Even though the Dao God Temple took away the Medicine God, along with the Detox Pills and all the medicinal formulas, as a disciple of the Medicine God, Ye Tianshi still remembered some of the formulas.
Unfortunately, even though he and his fellow disciples inherited teachings from the Medicine God, Ye Tianshi focused on mastering The Art of Rebirth through Flame Extinguishment, instead of Everything Turns into Medicine.
Therefore, he couldn’t make the Detox Pill.
Despite this, his knowledge of medicine was remarkable, and based on the partial formulas he knew, he managed to create a Detox Pill.
This pill was used by the Golden Toad clan to help other cultivators remove toxins.
With Ye Tianshi’s help, the Golden Toad clan’s strength grew steadily, and though not well-known, they became a powerful force in their own right.
It was then that Ye Tianshi once again remembered the teachings of his master, the Medicine God.
Just like the eight words Jiang Yun said, "A healer’s compassion is to medicine for all."
Medicine God chooses disciples based on character rather than qualifications.
Jiang Yun knew this when he first went to Grand Medicine Sect.
Being personally chosen by Medicine God as disciples and taught two techniques show that both disciples are kind-hearted individuals.
Therefore, Ye Tianshi instructed the Golden Toad clan to build the Reincarnation Cave, to collect offerings and help remove poison from the prisoners in Dao Prison, reducing their suffering as much as possible.
When Ye Tianshi was nearing the end of his life and to prevent his medical knowledge from being lost, he chose the chief of the Golden Toad clan as his disciple.
Ye Tianshi asked the Golden Toad clan to keep the Reincarnation Cave functioning after his passing and to try to find his master one day if possible.
Since then, the Golden Toad clan has inherited the medical knowledge from Medicine God, passing it down through generations and considering themselves as part of the Medicine God lineage.
They have lived up to Ye Tianshi’s last wish by diligently maintaining the Reincarnation Cave and helping the prisoners in Dao Prison to detoxify.
Of course, the Dao God Temple also sent people to investigate them, but they never imagined that the Golden Toad clan would have any connection with the Medicine God.
Plus, even though they could remove toxins, it was just a temporary solution. So in the end, the Dao God Temple didn’t pursue it further.
Hearing this, Jiang Yun completely understood the situation, stood up, clasped his hands in front of Jin Cunyao, and bowed deeply again.
"The actions of the elders are truly admirable to the younger generation!"
Jiang Yun had met many good people, but he had never encountered a clan like the Golden Toad clan, who could follow Ye Tianshi’s teachings for generations.
Jin Cunyao hurriedly stood up to return the gesture, "I am humbled. Without Grandmaster Ye, there would be no Golden Toad clan today. So, since we have both inherited the teachings of the Medicine God, and I am a few years older than you, let me take the lead and call you junior martial brother, what do you think?"
Pausing for a moment, Jin Cunyao continued, "Our relationship is quite complex, but since we both received the inheritance from the Medicine God, and I am older than you, I will take the liberty to call you junior martial brother. How does that sound?"
"Sounds good!"
Strictly speaking, Jiang Yun could also be considered as half a disciple of the Medicine God.
However, since he already had Gu Bulao as his master, he couldn’t accept anyone else as his teacher. But being called brothers with Jin Cunyao made him happy to accept.
As they sat down again, Jin Cunyao couldn’t help but show a surprised look on his face and said, "Younger brother, I never expected to meet you here!"
Jiang Yun also felt amazed by the wonders of the world.
Jiang Yun never thought that his journey to the Grand Medicine Sect for his Third Martial Brother would lead him to meet another senior martial brother in this Dao Prison.
The title of senior brother also made him think of his martial sister senior brother and he wondered where they were now.
Jin Cunyao spoke again, "By the way, younger brother, you mentioned you had something to ask for advice. Please tell me what it is."
Jiang Yun returned from his thoughts and straightforwardly nodded, "I have two things to discuss. First, I want to know if there is a way to completely remove the poison in my body."
"And secondly, I would like to ask senior brother if there are places in the seven layers of this Dao Prison that provide enough Earth Power and Golden Force."
After hearing Jiang Yun’s intentions, Jin Cunyao paused for a moment and replied, "Actually, both of these things are not difficult, but…"
