"This medical skill can truly be called the work of a Medical Saint.

"However, as far as I know... the Dragon King Hall doesn't possess such abilities.

"Otherwise, why would the Sihai Dragon Heads have lost one of their own in the old man's palm back then?"

"I see."

Su Mo chuckled, "But if over the years, the Dragon King Hall, realizing their shame, recruited such talent and nurtured this kind of Medical Saint?"

"It's possible, possible."

Elder Du smirked, "But do you think a Medical Saint is something you can cultivate so easily?"

"That's true..."

Su Mo nodded slightly, "And then? Did this person save the predecessor and just leave like that?"

"Not exactly."

Elder Du said, "I casually chatted with this person a bit. He seemed to want to do something, but he was very secretive in his speech, not straightforward.

"The old man didn't want to engage further, so he intended to leave.

"Unexpectedly, he suddenly told me that there is another Xuanji in the Scripture Cave behind the mountain.

"But if you want to investigate, it's not easy either.

"Not only is there a Ghost Vine guarding the entrance, but once inside, you will fall into the 'Mitu'.

"'Mitu'?"

Hearing this, Su Mo's heart moved, "Is it the passage inside the cave?"

"That's right."

Elder Du nodded, "Mitu is actually a kind of Array, but this Array is combined with mechanisms. Its design is extremely ingenious...

"This person knew a lot about it.

"He detailed the Mitu to me, and then told me.

"Even if you get past the Mitu, truly breaking into the depths is even more difficult.

"Because deep inside this cave, not only is there the Evil Law guarding it.

"But also the true experts from Longmu Island are here, guarding it strictly.

"And inside, there are mechanisms. If things get out of hand, the mechanisms will activate, obliterating everything within the cave."

"What are they guarding?"

Su Mo immediately asked.

"Heh..."

Elder Du laughed, "That person never told me, but after getting here, I understood.

"What they're guarding is a tablet."

"A tablet?"

Su Mo and Little Situ were both stunned.

"Exactly."

Elder Du said in a deep voice,

"They call it the Heavenly Tablet.

"Those idiots outside the cave ponder over the Medical Scripture daily.

"It's derived from the Heavenly Tablet.

"They say the Heavenly Tablet has its efficacy.

"The herbs cultivated with the power of the Heavenly Tablet have extraordinary effects.

"For instance, the Ghost Vine is one of them.

"The medicinal effects of the Ghost Vine are incredibly strong, far exceeding the range of ordinary medical principles.

"It's truly astonishing.

"But besides this, I haven't discovered anything else."

This conversation reached a pause here.

Su Mo and the old man exchanged glances, after a while, Su Mo smiled:

"Is senior planning to continue playing along here?"

"Between movements, there is a method.

"Knowing the reason, knowing the situation is not an issue.

"Only by thoroughly investigating the reality here and the true purpose of Longmu Island, can we act secretly.

"To take this Heavenly Tablet into our palm."

Elder Du spoke frankly to this point, then looked at Su Mo:

"You kid, you're really cunning.

"Did you really get poisoned by me on Chi Yan Island that day?"

Su Mo laughed and said:

"The Soul Detachment Powder from the elder is indeed formidable, leaving a lasting impression on me."

"Stop it."

Elder Du sneered,

"After the old man left that day, the more I thought about it, the more something felt off.

"But I couldn't figure out what went wrong.

"But later, when you actually made it to Gupiao Island, the old man understood... you weren't poisoned that day at all.

"Otherwise, you would have been trapped on Chi Yan Island, unable to escape.

"How could you have openly made trouble on Gupiao Island?"

He spoke coldly, staring at Su Mo.

Su Mo didn't respond directly but instead extended his hand:

"Hand it over."

"I don't have it."

Elder Du lifted his head.

"Hmm?"

Su Mo looked at him twice, "Really?"

"Why would I lie to you."

"Don't you want the chicken leg?"

"..."

Elder Du was momentarily speechless, caught in an internal struggle, and finally sighed:

"I really don't have it..."

"And the senior?"

Su Mo glanced at him, eyes glinting with a hint of killing intent.

"Wait!"

Seeing this, Elder Du quickly said:

"I wasn't controlled by them for another reason."

"I'm willing to listen."

"...The plain clothed man gave me the antidote."

Elder Du said solemnly, "This person is incredibly powerful, but it's unknown what his origins are.

"You mentioned before that the Dragon King Hall might have gained strength over the years.

"But even so, how could they cultivate such a person?

"He told me about the Scripture Cave, explaining the dangers, and gave me the antidote.

"Now you're asking me for it, but how could I still have it?"

Su Mo let out a soft breath, "Does the senior have any guesses about this person?"

"No clue whatsoever."

Elder Du laughed at this point, "So this matter still requires your help."

"What does it have to do with me?"

"What this person knows is certainly beyond what we can imagine."

Elder Du said faintly, "And he is very familiar with Longmu Island. Such a person, I don't believe you're not interested.

"If you want to take the Heavenly Tablet into your palm, what he knows will undoubtedly be crucial."
