Chapter 169

Chapter 169: Chapter 168 Ye Tianchen tried every trick in the book to make Cang Lang bring out classified information about Superpower Users, all to find a Superpower User of the healing system. If he couldn’t find one, he feared that Xiao Ya’s mother was truly beyond help.

The secrets Cang Lang brought concerned Huaxia’s grasp on both domestic and foreign Superpower Users over the past fifty years. While many details were sketchy, Tianchen could still discern some clues. These hints were what he needed, and he believed that, with his abilities, finding a Superpower User with a Healing Superpower Skill wouldn’t be that difficult.

Unfortunately, after flipping through dozens of pages, Ye Tianchen hadn’t found a single Superpower User capable of healing, not even a hint. Most of the documents lacked photos, containing only names and a brief description of their powers. In Tianchen’s view, these individuals were too weak.

The more he read, the more he shook his head — by the time Ye Tianchen had gone through hundreds of documents and bitterly realized that neither a competent healer nor any leads had been found, he felt profoundly disillusioned. He had thought that through state-held information, it would be possible to locate a Superpower User with healing abilities or at least to find a clue to assist his

In another leather pouch, Ye Tianchen took out three files, none of which contained a photo but just names and brief introductions. There was a lot of dust inside them, indicating they had indeed been stored for many years.

After looking through the first two files, Ye Tianchen shook his head. Although he was also very surprised because the records indicated that these two people were extremely powerful, unimaginably so, Ye Tianchen was still disappointed because the records also indicated that neither of them were Healing type Superpower Users.

However, when Ye Tianchen pulled out the third file, he was momentarily stunned. On the third sheet of paper, there were just four characters that deeply shook Ye Tianchen’s divine consciousness; thereafter, a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes.

"Divine Doctor Ghost Hand..."

Ye Tianchen smiled as he softly read aloud the four characters on the paper.

Upon hearing these four characters, Cang Lang also looked over, equally shaken. Being part of the national upper echelons, he knew much more about these secretive matters than Ye Tianchen, who had come back from the apocalypse. He had not expected that among these three most confidential documents, one would pertain to the "Divine Doctor Ghost Hand."

"Divine Doctor Ghost Hand, is it really him?" Cang Lang muttered to himself in disbelief.

"Brother Cang Lang, do you know about this person?" Ye Tianchen hurriedly asked.

After glancing at Ye Tianchen, Cang Lang finally spoke:

"Divine Doctor Ghost Hand, I don’t know from when he was, he was said to be extremely formidable and mysterious, rarely seen by anyone. The reason the nation has such a record of him is that he once treated an elderly leader, extending his life by twenty years..."

"Extended life by twenty years?" Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but ask in surprise.

"Yes, the old leader was already terminally ill at the age of sixty. It was the appearance of the Divine Doctor Ghost Hand that allowed him to hold on and live longer. According to the legend, after treating the old leader, the Divine Doctor Ghost Hand disappeared, and when he left, he only said one sentence, ’After twenty years, there will be no means to return to life!’"

Cang Lang seemed as though he had viewed that very scene from the past, quite shaken.

Ye Tianchen also frowned. Extending a life by twenty years—everyone knows, whether one is strong or formidable, eternal life isn’t possible, especially for those who are terminally ill. It’s not easy to live another twenty years. Only powerful Superpower Users and masters from the Ancient Martial Sects, because of the special energies in their bodies, can live over a hundred years, but they definitely cannot live forever.

Of course, there is one exception, that being in the apocalypse, Ye Tianchen had heard that Emperor-level Peak Experts could live forever, at least for tens of thousands of years. Simply put, they had transcended human existence, mastering above Divine Level. Superpower Users are essentially Five Elements Superpower Users, and becoming an Emperor-level Peak Expert means transcending the Five Elements and not being part of the three realms. It sounds somewhat fantastical and mysterious, yet people still believe it, because even nowadays, there are many things that cannot be explained by science. Whether the Longevity Skill exists remains unknown to anyone.

"He could actually help someone extend their life? It seems he really is formidable, and it’s definitely not just his medical skills; he most likely combined the use of Superpower Skills. Otherwise, simply helping someone extend their life by twenty years, if one could achieve that, then this Caster himself must be a very extraordinary existence!" Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise to himself. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to qidian.com to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets.
