Chapter 197 - Completely Suppressed!
Translator: Atlas StudiosEditor: Atlas Studios
Humans were above all living beings. Even though the bodies made of flesh and blood seemed to be fragile, they possessed an incredible growth potential.
However, due to various factors, it could not be fully developed.
Practicing martial arts was one of the ways to develop it.
If one used humans as the foundation, the effects of the medicine produced would not be inferior to that which uses heavenly treasures.
Or rather, human medicines were heavenly treasures to begin with.
Of course, producing human medicine was very troublesome, but once compared to the very rare Purple Blood Dragon King Ginseng, it was much simpler.
The Purple Blood Dragon King Ginseng grows in an extremely special environment.
Human medicine was different; it could be man-made.
The solution was simple—find the right target.
Though this target had to meet certain requirements,
For example, never falling sick since they were young. They could not be a martial artist either because the birth of internal force would stimulate the human body.
Even though the stimulation was to strengthen one’s organs, bones, and tendons, for human medicine, the purer the better.
After finding a suitable candidate, the He Family would slowly nourish the other party’s body through food, slowly improving it. Finally, when the body conditions were met, it would be put into the Dragon Melting Pot and cooked for the Heavenly Ascension Feast.

Taking Feng Tiejian as an example, the He Family had secretly “reared” him for five years before he fulfilled the final requirements.
Unfortunately, due to Su Jingxing’s interference, Feng Tiejian “disappeared”.
‘The human medicine that he had “reared” to fulfillment escaped. He Quanshui went berserk, roared in anger, and refused to give up.
On top of that, Xu Tailong had been secretly investigating the He Family.
Indignant, the crazed He Quanshui steeled his resolve and took the evil shortcut again.
Massacre a thousand people, gather a thousand people’s blood, and refine the Blood Spirit Pearl.
Using the power of the Blood Spirit Pearl, he could create a new human medicine within a short period of time.
This time, He Quanshui decided that he would detain the human medicine until it was reared to maturation.
However, Su Jingxing ruined his plan again.
Moreover, he even managed to interrupt his final eruption after death.
Even though He Quanmen didn’t know that He Quanshui was a member of Ghost Ride, he knew that his big brother had joined a mysterious organization and had a powerful backer.
Only, it had been 20 years since he last saw this backer.
Ever since the last He Family member who joined a mysterious organization disappeared, He Quanshui had been waiting.
However, after waiting for 20 years, his backer did not appear again.
According to He Quanshui’s memories, this was one of the reasons why He Quanshui created Corpse Puppets to massacre functional towns, and obtain the Blood Spirit Pearl.
He Quanshui had once told him that only after advancing to the third-grade could one proceed to the organization’s gathering place.
This section of memories made Su Jingxing’s heart skip a beat.
Only upper third-grade martial artists are allowed to go to the gathering place of Ghost Ride?
Wouldn’t that mean Ghost Ride’s lair is filled with experts in the top ranks?
How terrifying!
As expected of an ancient faction that has existed for thousands of years.
Su Jingxing was alarmed.
Now that He Quanshui and He Quanmen were all dead, the He Family’s members in Qinghe City only consisted of the elderly, women, and children.
According to He Quanmen’s memories, they did not know the secret of the He Family’s Heaven Ascension Feast.
For hundreds of years, the He Family had only passed down the Heaven Ascension Feast to core members. Moreover, only to sons and not daughters.
Therefore, other than the member of Ghost Ride who had disappeared for 20 years, He Renya, the He Family’s main force had been wiped out!
Feng Tiejian could finally return in peace.
Su Jingxing was now the only person who knew that he had been chosen to become human medicine.
Everyone else was dead.
Unless Hen Renya were to return and happened to be in close contact with Feng Tiejian to figure out his identity as human medicine, Feng Tiejian would not be in danger.
Putting the slim chance of that happening aside, there were other ways for Feng Tiejian to completely get rid of this threat.
‘That was to refine the medicinal power in his body.
According to He Quanmen’s memory, he should find a body-tempering martial art that could absorb all the medicinal power in his body and convert it into internal force.
Feng Tiejian would then no longer have to worry about his identity as a human medicine being exposed.
Otherwise, even without He Renya who had disappeared for 20 years, there would have been third-grade experts like Zhang Renya, Wang Renya, and others who could identify him as human medicine.
At this thought, Su Jingxing decided to teach Feng Tiejian a martial art, the Copper Human Mantra he had collected.
This martial art came from a Skill Card. It wasn’t of a high grade, and wasn’t attractive to Su Jingxing.
But it would be enough for Feng Tiejian.
In He Quanmen’s memories, the Dragon Melting Pot and the elderly, women, and children of the He Family were hidden in the basement of a building diagonally across from Scholar Restaurant.
No one could have guessed this.
The He Family’s secret base was so close to Scholar Restaurant.
After some thought, Su Jingxing decided to find an opportunity to retrieve this spirit weapon “pot’.
There was nothing wrong with the Dragon Melting Pot itself. The fault lay with the He Family’s ancestor for taking the evil path instead of the right path.
With Liu Chenglong’s help, Su Jingxing didn’t believe the He Family’s ancestors didn’t know of any other advanced martial arts that could push one to the third-grade.
But they were used to taking shortcuts; fast and efficient.
They were not interested in taking the right path, which was tiring and took a lot of time and effort to break through to the third-grade.
As a result, the Dragon Melting Pot now had a thick bloody shadow casted over it as well.
Once Su Jingxing got it back and cleansed it, he might be able to refine pills with it.
The He Family had a total of three spirit weapons.
The kitchen knife, the Dragon Melting Pot, and the Mind Stirring Rattle.
The kitchen knife had been taken away by the members of the Golden Chen family, and the Mind Stirring Rattle that looked like a child’s rattle was already in Su Jingxing’s hands.
Now, all that was left was the Dragon Melting Pot. Now that Su Jingxing knew about it, he wasn’t about to let it slip by either.
After watching through all the memories, Su Jingxing drew a deep breath.
The He Family’s matters could pretty much come to an end now.
The massacre at Ranch Town should be enough to keep Qinghe City’s City Guard Office and the Martial Suppression Office busy for a while.
With this in mind, Su Jingxing was in no hurry to go to the prefecture city to look for Feng Tiejian to practice martial arts.
Instead, he took out nine Requiem Cards and unlocked them one by one, acquiring 15 Spirit Accumulation Pills.
How much soul power does a Spirit Accumulation Pill increase again?
$u Jingxing had somewhat forgotten.
But it didn’t matter.
He just had to consume them.
Immediately, he gobbled down 15 Spirit Accumulation Pill in batches, slowly nourishing his soul power to strengthen the Heaven Trampling Elephant.
‘When he was done consuming the 15 pills, Su Jingxing controlled the Heaven Trampling Elephant, which had shrunk to half its original size, to unleash a forceful suppression on the Sishui Horned Dragons.
Roar!
Pooo!
The cries of dragons and the cries of elephants reverberated throughout his Spiritual Sea.
The “Sishui Horned Dragon” struggled and resisted, its shockwaves sweeping through the body of the Heaven Trampling Devil Elephant.
Its body shone with the light of lightning. It raised its trunk, and its spear-like tusks pierced through the air. Then, it raised its feet and stomped down.
Roar!
Pooo!
The cries of a dragon and an elephant grew louder and louder, resounding in his mind.
However, the former was getting softer, and the latter was getting louder.
Finally, the Sishui Horned Dragon stopped struggling and gave up on fusing into Su Jingxing’s mind.
Seizing the opportunity, the elephant’s trunk swept up the black horned dragon and swallowed it.
To fuse with Su Jingxing’s will and mind, the Sishui Horned Dragons had to go deep into his sea of consciousness.
On the contrary, controlling the Sishui Horned Dragon was much simpler for Su Jingxing.
He just had to devour it!
