Rick walked toward the center of the room to pick up his fallen wooden staff.As he stepped near the terrible metal operating table, something happened.The air in the center of the room suddenly grew freezing cold. It was so cold that Rick's breath turned into white mist."Rick, wait," Luna said, pointing at the metal table.On the cold steel surface of the table, something was carved into the metal. It was not a medical diagram. It was a perfect circle, and inside the circle was a sharp, jagged cross.It was Yuren's sigil. It was the mark of the High Saint.And the sigil was glowing.It was burning with a bright, terrifying blue fire. The blue flames did not give off any heat. They only gave off a freezing, absolute cold.Rick stopped walking. He stared at the burning blue mark.The blue fire was not just sitting there. It was moving. It looked like the fire was breathing. Thin lines of blue light were creeping off the metal table and crawling across the stone floor. The lines of li

"This is the hidden clinic," Rick said. He walked up to the heavy stone door. He placed his bare hands flat against the cold, dusty rock. "This is where I learned how to be a doctor. This is where my master taught me Qi Surgery. It was a secret place, hidden away from the wars of the world."Rick closed his eyes. He remembered his master's voice."The world is full of people who want to break bodies, Rick," the Physician's voice echoed in his memory. "A healer must hide his greatest tools. Because if an evil man finds a tool of healing, he will only twist it into a tool of torture."Rick pushed his hands hard against the stone. He sent a wave of his green Earth Qi into the door.The old stone recognized his energy. Deep inside the rock, ancient locks clicked open. Click. Clack. Thump.With a loud, heavy grinding noise, the massive stone door slowly pushed open.A rush of stale air blew out of the dark room.Rick expected to smell the comforting scent of old medicine. He expected to sm

The slide into the dark was long and terrifying.Rick heard the sound of sliding rocks and crumbling dirt. He heard the outcasts screaming as they fell. The air rushed past his face, cold and sharp. He held tightly to Luna’s warm hand. He did not let go.Then, the sliding stopped.Rick hit the ground hard. He rolled over the rough, salty dirt. His heavy medical bag slammed into his ribs. He groaned in pain and finally came to a stop.For a minute, there was absolute silence. There was only the sound of heavy breathing and coughing in the dark."Luna?" Rick called out. His voice was weak. It sounded like sandpaper scraping on a stone."I am here," Luna answered.A soft, warm white light bloomed in the dark. Luna raised her crystalline arm. The pure light pushed the thick black shadows away.Rick slowly sat up. His whole body ached. He coughed, and a thick drop of black blood fell from his lips onto the white salt floor. The poison of the Heaven's Cure was still inside him. It was fight

The sound of Luna's voice broke the spell. It was a scared, messy, desperate human voice. It was real.Rick's erratic pulse slammed against his ribs. THUD.He snapped his head up. He looked at the giant blue face. He saw the absolute, terrifying emptiness in Yuren's eyes. It was not peace. It was the void. It was death pretending to be medicine."No," Rick said.Rick stood up straight. He lifted his staff high. The green light roared back to life, but this time, it was mixed with a wild, dark gray energy. It was not the pure black of hatred, but the dark gray of deep, heavy human sorrow. He was using Kael's tear as a focus. He was using the power of pure sadness.[System Alert...][User Rick initiating chaotic resonance.][Warning: Pulse critical. Risk of physical collapse: 92%.]Rick ignored the flashing red box in his vision."I am a healer," Rick roared, his voice echoing like thunder. "And sometimes, a healer has to cut out the rot!"Rick slammed his wooden staff into the dirt flo

It was Luna. She slid into the dirt beside him. She ignored the fighting all around them. She only looked at Rick.Her crystalline arm was glowing with a bright, pure white light. She pressed her crystal hand firmly against Rick's chest, right over his wildly beating heart."Rick, look at me!" Luna yelled over the noise of the battle.Rick slowly turned his head. His eyes were wide and wild. The veins on his neck were bulging and turning black.Luna gasped. She could feel his energy through her crystal skin. She was deeply connected to the magic of the world. She knew immediately what was happening to him."Your pulse!" Luna cried. Her eyes filled with terrified tears. "Rick, you are slipping! Your soul is losing its shape!""I have to fight him," Rick ground out through clenched teeth. "I have to destroy the blue light. I hate him, Luna. I hate what he is doing.""No!" Luna begged. She squeezed his shoulder tightly. "Listen to me! If you fight his Hatred with your own hatred, you wil

The blue glass fell like rain. It was a terrible, beautiful storm. Millions of sharp, glowing blue pieces dropped from the broken ceiling. They cut through the dark air of the cavern. They hit the dirt floor with a loud, crashing sound. Crash. Tink. Shatter.And right behind the glass came the Enforcers.Hundreds of them dropped from the bright hole above. They wore their thick, spotless white armor. Their blue visors glowed in the dark. They did not scream as they fell. They did not yell a battle cry. They landed on their feet with heavy, perfect thuds. They were totally silent. They were machines of flesh and bone, emptied of their souls, ready to clean the "dirt" from the world.Rick stood in the center of the Hollow Clinic. He held his old wooden staff tightly in both hands. His knuckles were white. His chest was covered in his own dark, poisoned blood. He was exhausted, but he did not step back."Protect the patients!" Rick shouted. His voice was hoarse and broken, but it echoed
