The Luckiest Dumb Doctor - Chapter 438

Chapter 438: Chapter 438: A Thousand Miles in a Day_1

Stepping into the cave felt like moving from summer straight into deep autumn, the temperature inside was at least several degrees lower than outside.

All around was Yin evil energy that seemed almost to condense into frost dew.

Greg Jensen stood at the entrance of the cave, circulating True Qi in his eyes. Once he adapted to the lighting, he began to survey his surroundings.

He found that the cave was shaped like a gourd, with a passage less than two meters wide in the middle, connecting the inner and outer caverns.

At the far end of the inner cavern, there were two stone doors with a slight gap open between them.

The gurgling Yin evil energy, like a liquid, flowed out from the gap in the doors.

“Such dense Yin evil energy!”

Greg Jensen, feeling the almost tangible Yin evil energy, was secretly delighted. Without concern for what was inside, he immediately sat down cross-legged in the outer cavern and began practicing the Guidance Technique.

As the circulation of his True Qi accelerated, the surrounding Yin evil energy immediately swarmed towards him.

For Greg Jensen, Yin evil energy, like nature’s spiritual energy, could be absorbed and refined, eventually becoming True Qi ready for his use.

Therefore, while others might see the cave as a place of danger, in Greg Jensen’s eyes, this cavern filled with Yin evil energy was simply a blessed land of opportunity.

The spiritual energy outside was sparse and thin compared to the density of the evil energy here.

This was Greg Jensen’s first time cultivating in such a rich environment, and as he felt the Yin evil energy around him, he sensed every cell in his body filled with a delightful sensation.

The True Qi within him circulated faster and faster, and the surrounding Yin evil energy was consequently attracted to him.

Moments later, the nearly solidified Yin evil energy actually formed several whirlwinds around him.

Suddenly, a wind of Yin evil energy began to blow within the cave.

The howling gale swept through both caverns, wrapping up all the Yin evil energy and rushing towards Greg Jensen.

“Hmm…”

Greg Jensen’s brows furrowed, and his complexion instantly turned pale.

After a moment, his face regained its rosiness, but in just a few seconds, the redness faded again.

After repeating this several times, Greg Jensen’s complexion finally returned to normal, and his tightly knitted brows slowly relaxed.

He took a long breath to expel a mouthful of turbid air and continued to cultivate calmly.

Just then, that blast of Yin evil wind had almost shattered his Dantian.

There was no helping it; it was simply too overwhelming. If not for the intervention of his Divine Sense, which he managed properly, he probably would have died.

Even if he didn’t die, his Dantian would have surely been broken, and it would be uncertain if he could ever cultivate again.

What he didn’t know was that just as the whirlwinds formed, a storm had also arisen outside in the campsite.

All the Yin evil energy in the camp was swept away by the gale and subsequently surged into the cave.

Seeing this scene, Lukas Simon felt a mix of joy and worry.

He was thrilled that the Yin evil seemed to be resolved but was also concerned about Greg Jensen’s condition inside.

Troy Milton, along with Bradley Ford and Randy Locke, rushed over to watch upon learning that Greg Jensen was about to deal with the Yin evil energy problem.

They too had witnessed the scene and were now too shocked to speak.

Troy Milton’s expression was somber, deep in thought.

Randy Locke’s expression was complex, with a mix of guilt and embarrassment flickering in his eyes.

Even if he didn’t want to admit it, he knew very well that he was indeed inferior to Barry Wolfe, the young man he had called a fraud, who not only saved his life but was now solving the issue of Yin evil that he himself could not resolve.

Thinking of how he boasted his so-called knowledge in front of Barry Wolfe, Randy Locke felt so embarrassed he wished he could crawl into a hole in the ground.

How humiliating!

…

The cave.

After draining the Yin evil energy from the camp, the cave gradually became calm, with the energy of both the inner and outer caverns reaching a balance. Under the influence of Greg Jensen’s Guidance Technique, it flowed gently.

And Greg Jensen himself had completely immersed in the cultivation of the Guidance Technique.

He had never thought that through the Guidance Technique alone, the growth of his True Qi could be this rapid.

His True Qi was changing almost every second.

It wasn’t long before his True Qi reached the brink of the eighth level of Qi Refinement.

With his mind increasingly serene, Greg Jensen guided his True Qi to break through to the eighth level of Qi Refinement, and his absorption of the Yin evil energy quickened even more.

The yin evil from both the inner and outer caves was quickly exhausted by him.

Seemingly drawn by his traction, the flow of yin evil within the stone door started to accelerate.

Hiss!

He didn’t know how long it had passed, but the invisible membrane finally shattered, and Greg Jensen felt a surge of exhilaration.

On his normally impassive face, a faint smile appeared.

However, he did not immediately stand up, but continued to absorb the surrounding yin evil to consolidate his current realm.

…

The sky outside had completely darkened, and the soldiers who had stayed to watch the excitement had all dispersed.

Daley Rogers, Simon Cooper, Trent Preston, as well as Randy Locke and Bradley Ford who felt guilty, and lastly, Lukas Simon and Guard Commander Elijah Hall, among others.

These people had not left, but instead, had ordered tables and chairs to be brought over and were eating and drinking at the mouth of the cave.

After a simple meal, the cave was still silent.

Lukas Simon and others sat sipping tea while Trent Preston and Randy Locke couldn’t sit still any longer and began to walk around.

After walking for a while, they returned to their seats and continued to watch the cave entrance listlessly.

Until the moon hung high in the sky and there was still no movement from within the cave, none of them made a move.

Elijah Hall said in a low voice, “Sir, you go back and rest first, I’ll just wait here.”

Lukas Simon lifted his head and gazed at the night sky, bright with a moon and sparse with stars, and said indifferently, “Ever since I’ve been stationed here, I’ve never seen such a clear night sky.

And all this, it was Barry Wolfe who risked his life to bring it about. What does it matter if I wait a little longer?”

Elijah Hall also looked up and, agreeing, nodded his head without speaking any further.

In a low voice, Bradley Ford said, “Uncle Master, when Mister Wolfe comes out later, you should give him a proper apology.

And besides, he saved your life; we must not forget this favor.”

“Ah yes, I know,” said Randy Locke, his old face flushing red as he waved his hand irritably. Gazing into the deep cave, he let out a soft sigh.

On the other side, Daley Rogers watched the cave entrance with a somber expression, his eyes flickering coldly.

Seeing the current situation, it seemed definite that Lukas Simon would take Barry Wolfe’s side. In the past, he could suppress Barry Wolfe in many aspects due to Wolfe’s weak connections.

But to do so in the future would probably be unfeasible.

The only solution now was to eliminate him!

But Daley Rogers was only half a step away from being a Grandmaster, and he knew he definitely couldn’t beat Wolfe alone, nor could he even with the help of Trent Preston and Simon Cooper on his side.

Should he seek help from the Stuart Family?

Daley Rogers’s thoughts wavered, but he quickly abandoned the idea.

The problem was that he couldn’t tell the Stuart Family.

The Stuart Family had asked him to win over Lukas Simon, yet not only had he failed to win Simon over, but he had also pushed his own adversary into Simon’s camp.

If the Stuart Family found out, they would surely think he was incompetent.

All because of Barry Wolfe!

Had it not been for him, he would have already established a connection with Lukas Simon through his relationship with Alberto Simon.

Daley Rogers’s expression grew darker, and the hatred in his heart peaked.

It was true that Barry Wolfe, having killed Nathan Green, was eligible to vie for the Green family’s properties, but that was just the official rule.

For an outsider, being allowed a sip of the broth was good enough—did he really think he could swallow the Green family’s assets whole?

If he refused to cooperate, then they would have to get rid of him!

With that thought, Daley Rogers turned his head to look over, and Simon Cooper just happened to look back. Their eyes met briefly, then quickly turned away.

Simon Cooper frowned and remained silent.

He had guessed Daley Rogers’s intentions, but he was hesitating whether or not to stand with Rogers.

To him, Barry Wolfe seemed a more worthwhile investment.

But that was provided he could survive.
