Harrison Houston had no intention of getting involved in trivial matters, but Blood Transformation Disease was an exception.

As a Monarch Healer himself, he was powerless to cure patients suffering from Blood Transformation Disease and could only watch helplessly as they died in agony.

The fact that a young man dared to talk so carelessly about the disease caught Harrison Houston’s curiosity, and he stepped forward to observe the situation.

“Master Houston!”

Noticing Harrison Houston’s appearance, Iris Brown suppressed her inner anger and greeted him with a slight nod.

“No need for formalities.” Harrison Houston smiled and then observed the unchanging expression on David Jones’s face, his tone gentle.

“It takes extraordinary courage and determination to learn medicine, but isn’t it going too far to joke about Blood Transformation Disease?”

Iris Brown nodded in agreement.

She would not have overreacted if it were not for this man attracting attention at the External Alchemy Tower and joking about the incurable disease.

“Another troublemaker,” David Jones frowned as he noticed the crowd of medical professionals gathering around them.

Unknowingly, he had become too engrossed in reading Plain Question and began to give his opinions subconsciously, which caught the attention of some other passing healers.

Thinking about it, David Jones glanced at the sleeping Daphne in his arms.

“I don’t need your apology either, but I hope you’ll be more careful with your words in the future and not joke about Blood Transformation Disease. It’s hurtful to the patients and their families.” Iris Brown glanced at David Jones’s unblemished forehead and took a step back.

Seeing how she had a hidden ghost implement concealing her Ghost’s horn, Iris Brown knew his status must be extraordinary, and even though she did not fear him, it was unnecessary to offend him.

Even her annoying cousin, Peter Houston, who had tried to become her personal protector and couldn’t be shaken off, had become a mute, fearing he might offend some powerful Ghost.

Were it not for the current situation, the arrogant Peter Houston would have taught him a lesson with his fists. His tendency to bully the weak and fear the strong was one of the reasons that Iris had always looked down upon her cousin.

“I don’t talk nonsense, nor do I joke about diseases,” David Jones said, giving her a brief glance.

Upon hearing this, Iris Brown’s face turned ugly.

She would have believed this statement if it came from an elusive Imperial Healer, but the man in front of her was clearly from the same generation, and he spoke such grandiose words without the fear of getting himself in trouble.

Iris Brown looked at David Jones intently and laughed in anger.

“Alright, alright, since you say Blood Transformation Disease is just a minor ailment, please tell me how it can be treated,” she challenged.

“If you are right, I will apologize to you right now.”

David Jones placed the medical book back on the shelf and said softly, “It is improper to spread medical knowledge casually in public. Don’t you understand the rules?”

Being accused of not understanding the rules by David Jones, Iris Brown’s beautiful face faltered.

Since she became a Healer and received her grandfather’s attention and training, she had lived a smooth life and never had anyone dare to provoke her, let alone scold her in public.

“If we can’t agree, it’s pointless to say more. You carry the Blood Transformation Disease within you, and it will burst within a year or so. Instead of wasting your breath with me, you should seek help as soon as possible.”

After saying this, David Jones calmly turned and walked towards the External Alchemy Tower’s entrance.

Most of the medical books displayed at the External Alchemy Tower were basic knowledge. David Jones had already reviewed the ones he needed to and had the Gluttonous Beast record and backup the others. There was no need to linger here and put on a show for others.

As for the woman who spoke up to interrupt, whether she believed him or not, David wouldn’t bother arguing with someone who was already on the brink of death.

Seeing David’s seemingly panicked departure (in her opinion), Iris Brown’s anger quickly faded to calmness.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

She must have lost her wits, thinking of getting a cure for Blood Transformation Disease from a disrespectful lunatic.

If Blood Transformation Disease could really be cured, the healer who developed the cure would have already become famous throughout the Great Umbral. Even the Great Umbral Empress might personally issue an edict to recruit them. Yet how could such a supreme healer live in a small place like Silver-Abyssal City?

“Iris, he dared to curse you with Blood Transformation Disease. Do you want me to find a few people to teach him a lesson?” Peter Houston offered eagerly at this time.

“No need.” Iris Brown glanced at him, hiding her disdain before turning to leave as well.

After such a farce, she was no longer in the mood to practice alchemy today.

“Interesting. He doesn’t seem to be lying.” With the people involved dispersing, Harrison Houston couldn’t help but stroke his long beard.

“Although I don’t know if this person has the secret to treating Blood Transformation Disease, it’s better to be cautious. We must maintain contact. Blood Transformation Disease is of great importance, and we need to inform the clan of his information.”

…

David Jones walked down the main street of Silver Abyss City, not caring about the trivial matters that happened at the External Alchemy Tower but reflecting upon the external alchemy techniques praised and popularized by the Great Umbral Empress.

Unlike the alchemy practiced in Flowery Kingdom, which focuses on enhancing the Arcane Star’s psychic and reducing the toxicity of the elixirs, the external alchemy of the Great Umbral focuses on material transformation. The elixirs refined from eight kinds of gems and jade can grant eternal life and Vajra Body, thus achieving the flawless Golden Body.

As for the intense toxicity produced by the gold and jade elixirs, the strong people of the Great Umbral generally believe it to be the tribulation needed to cultivate the Golden Body.

After all, without tempering the flesh, how can one become a saint? The higher the strengthening level of external elixirs in the Great Umbral, the more toxins they contain – so much so that trying them can be life-threatening even for people at the same level.

Of course, there are pros and cons. The more toxic an elixir is, the more potent its medicinal effects, and the stronger the effect after ingestion. The ghost emperor elixir is one such example.

At least to David’s knowledge, the elixirs in Flowery Kingdom that can help trainers breakthrough to Epic (Class VII of Arcane Star) only have a 50% success rate, while the ghost emperor elixir has a terrifying rate of 89%. Meaning only 11% chance of failure for Ghost King Elites who take the elixir.

That’s why the Silver Abyss City Lord focused on extending his life after obtaining the ghost emperor elixir, restoring his body to its peak before daring to attempt a breakthrough.

Otherwise, the fierce toxicity of the ghost emperor elixir would rot his weak body before he completed the breakthrough.

Thinking of this, David exhaled a stale breath.

Although external alchemy has a strong medicinal nature and toxicity, its value is undoubtedly enormous.

If he could combine the alchemy of Flowery Kingdom with external alchemy to reduce its terrifying toxicity while retaining its potency, he might be able to create a new path of becoming a great grandmaster of pharmacy.

“Maybe I don’t need to rush back to my country.”

David looked up at the tallest and most magnificent building in Silver Abyss City, the External Alchemy Tower, and couldn’t help but feel a surge of ambition.

In the Great Umbral, which values bloodlines, the bloodline enhancement methods recorded in the external alchemy scriptures are countless.

If the Ghosts can use external alchemy to enhance their bloodlines, why can’t trainers use it for their contracted pets?

In terms of physicality and resistance, the sturdy bodies of pets are no weaker than the bloodline and flesh of the Ghosts who have undergone arduous cultivation, and may even be stronger!
