The Immortal Ascension Episode 2

Mentor turned nemesis

Han Li has reached tier three and even stingy doctor Mo recognizes quality herbs are needed to continue cultivating. He doesn’t allow them to accompany him. I think this is to keep secret the specific herbs he needs. He knows Han Li too smart to have recipes down. When he gets back from trip he is completely exhausted and health failing. Han Li tries to help but knows the doc is running out of time. He is taking the same bone agony pills Li Feiyu is and has one year left. He is now threatening friends and family if Han Li doesn’t get level 4 before year end. Zhang Tie catches doc talking with shadowy immortal and hears them conspiring about true intentions for Han Li. He hid well but was discovered and dealt with. When Han Li asks about him he is lied to. The gloves come off and the doc has a candid conversation. He tells Han Li his age is 37. Now fun fact the actor’s age is 73, so not sure if this inverted as a funny or just interesting coincidence. He makes Han Li take a pill that will definitely do bad things to him. He does, however, teach him his motto. These 4 rules will prove quite useful for Han Li later. Hide cleverness with clumsiness. Do good with discretion. Stay pure in this world of darkness. Treat concession as a way to advance. Han li has advanced to tier 4 but wants to level more before doc finds out. He is also learning defense skills from Li Feiyu who suggests poison as a first step. Han Li knows his life depends on learning and cultivating as much as possible. His family and friends’ lives are also in the balance. His mystery bottle has let him open it. The essence ages plants hundreds of years instantly. He also learned it is not for living things to ingest. His scarecrow to fool doc’s bird spies was fun. This has let him collect herbs and learn more than mentor gives him credit for. The element of surprise will be his best asset when battle time comes.
