Chapter 226 - - 224 The Medical Path Should Flourish_1

—————✧✧✧✧—————

“Mr. Wang, this matter is of great importance, and we can no longer make decisions on our own. Would you please follow us to meet the Sect Leader for a final determination?” Medical Cultivator Long pondered for a moment before speaking.

“Of course,” Duge nodded. “However, before we go, I would ask you to find someone for the few colleagues from the Supervisory Academy to reconnect their limbs. They have recognized my ideas and are willing to follow me; I cannot let them down.”

“Naturally,” Dr. Long glanced at Xu Heming and the others, saying, “Junior Brother Wang, you find someone to help them reconnect their arms! The rest of us will take Mr. Wang to see the Sect Leader.”

“Understood.” Junior Brother Wang nodded and approached Xu Heming and his group, “Follow me!”

Xu Heming and the others looked at Duge with apprehension.

Duge smiled at them and said, “Don’t worry, restoring the overall principles of the cultivation technique will benefit everyone and harm no one. I believe in the grand physicians of the Medical Immortal Valley. Occupied with healing and saving lives, they have neglected their own cultivation; using Spirit Stones and Spiritual Energy for cultivation is slow, which is why the Medical Immortal Sect falls behind many other great sects.

Even if the overall principles are not restored, as long as I am here, I can directly extract Spiritual Power from the patients with higher realms to supplement the physicians, which is much faster than collecting Spirit Stones.

For both the public and private good, they won’t harm me. With this technique, the way of medicine shall flourish in the world; you all just focus on healing,” Duge reassured them.

Dr. Long suddenly trembled, then turned to another medical cultivator, “Junior Brother Liu, please invite all the Elders to join us in meeting the Sect Leader, sir, if you would.”

“Please.”

Duge smiled and followed behind Dr. Long.

If he were facing just one person, there would indeed be risks involved in his actions, but with a group of people, he becomes a treasure.

Previously, he had taken such a great risk by fighting a Golden Core with only Foundation Establishment skills.

This time, the Medical Immortal Valley housed those in the Divinity Transformation Realm, and only by being clever could he minimize the risks, like the dean said, to trick his Nascent Soul master and grow step by step. It was somewhat inefficient and obviously riskier.

The junior sister rose, wanting to follow Duge, but was held back by the seventh junior brother.

The seventh junior brother shook his head at her slightly.

Duge now faced the Divinity Transformation Realm, and following him, they would no longer be of any help; on the contrary, they would only be a burden, so it was better not to go.

…

The Medical Immortal Cave.

Numerous experts from the Medical Immortal Sect gathered together, led by an elder with the appearance of a youthful, white-haired man, exuding a faint but unmistakable aura of authority as he sat there.

Duge could clearly sense that the Spiritual Energy in the cave would unconsciously flow into his body, causing whirlpools of Spiritual Energy to form one after another.

That is to say.

If one were to cultivate in the same place, all the Spiritual Energy would be taken by someone with a lower realm.

By the elder’s side, there were two other elders in the same situation.

Is this the Divinity Transformation Realm?

It turns out that it was not one Divinity Transformation Realm expert, but three.

Next to them, there were more than twenty individuals whose cultivation levels Duge couldn’t see through; they were either at the Nascent Soul Stage or the pinnacle of the Golden Core Stage, with Dr. Long and others standing behind these people.

“Junior Wang Chong, pays respects to the Sect Leader,” Duge bowed respectfully to the Sect Leader above.

The Sect Leader glanced at him and said, “I’ve already heard about your affair, come forward and verify your sect’s technique using my body.”

“I obey the Sect Leader’s command,” Duge walked step by step towards the Sect Leader. As he neared the Sect Leader, he felt a wave of pressure overwhelming him, causing his steps to pause, but soon, he adapted to the pressure and continued forward.

The Sect Leader’s eyebrows twitched slightly as he looked at Duge again, but said nothing.

“Sect Leader, my apologies. I’m not very proficient in my technique yet. Every time I absorb someone else’s Spiritual Power, it will forcefully take away a piece of their clothing. Please don’t mind,” Duge said cautiously, standing beside the Sect Leader.

“It doesn’t matter, just go ahead,” the Sect Leader smiled and nodded to him.

Duge shyly smiled and resolutely stretched out his hand.

The next second.

Raging and surging Spiritual Power flowed through the meridians of his hand and rushed into his Dantian, merging with the Golden Core.

This was an unprecedented robust surge of Spiritual Power.

In an instant, it propelled his realm to the pinnacle of the Golden Core Stage.

“Hmm?”

The Sect Leader seemed not to have expected Duge to absorb Spiritual Power so quickly, and he subconsciously furrowed his brows.

Immediately after,

A repelling force came.

Duge’s hand, which was pressed against his arm, was pushed aside by him, and his coat followed suit and came off…

The Sect Leader, looking at his coat which had suddenly come off, was slightly taken aback, his brows furrowed as if he couldn’t understand the principle behind it.

Duge had an embarrassed look on his face as he handed the coat back, and at the same time, he felt relieved in his heart that he hadn’t forcefully attacked the Medical Immortal Sect.

Control over Spiritual Power at the Divinity Transformation Realm had reached its pinnacle, and even if he ascended to the Nascent Soul Stage, there was no chance he could have his palm touch the other party’s body.

The Divinity Transformation Realm could indeed be rightfully called the realm of an Immortal.

“Sect Head Senior Brother, how is it? Is it really as he says?” the elder standing beside asked, curious.

“Wang Chong, let everyone have a taste of your Cultivation Technique,” the Sect Leader instructed.

Duge nodded his head and bowed to the crowd once again.

Then,

He plundered a large amount of cultivation from these elders whose Cultivation Levels far exceeded his, until with the last person, the Golden Core within his body was the size of an egg, and there was even a faint trend of it transforming into a human shape…

It has to be said, the Spiritual Power of these elders was incredibly profound.

Moreover, as someone at the Golden Core Stage plundering from an elder at the Divinity Transformation Realm, his attributes had surged upwards significantly, and the speed at which he absorbed others’ cultivation had also noticeably quickened.

“Demon Cultivation Arts, Sect Leader, to instantly usurp the cultivation others have painstakingly accumulated over many years for one’s own use, this is a Demon Cultivation Art! Such a technique must never be disseminated in the world.” An elder at the Nascent Soul Stage looked at Duge in horror, his voice trembling after a layer of his cultivation was extracted.

The Sect Leader ignored him and turned to Duge, “Wang Chong, you said there is also the Way of People, which can return Spiritual Power back to those whose Spiritual Power is weaker than yours?”

“Sect Leader, find a Disciple in the Qi Refinement or Foundation Establishment Stage, and one test will tell,” Duge said frankly. “The Way of Heaven takes from those with surplus to supplement those lacking. To be precise, I cannot draw Spiritual Power from people whose cultivation is lower than mine, I can only nourish back.”

Very soon,

A Disciple at the Qi Refinement Realm and another at the Foundation Establishment Stage were brought forth, and Duge verified the power of the Way of Heaven.

Seeing that in the blink of an eye, the cultivation of the two Disciples had been raised to the peak of their current realm, just shy of breaking through to a successful advancement, all the elders of the Medical Immortal Valley fell silent.

Even the elder who had just been decrying the Demon Cultivation Art fell silent.

“To take from those with surplus to supplement those lacking, truly nearly akin to the Tao!” the Sect Leader examined the realms of the two Disciples whose Cultivation Levels had been increased and sighed, “Wang Chong, would you be willing to join my Medical Immortal Sect?”

“Sect Leader, I have revered the ways of a healer since I was young. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have brought this Cultivation Technique to the Medical Immortal Sect,” Duge said with a smile. “Sect Leader, you’ve also experienced the dominance of this Cultivation Technique. The Seven Star Gate is absolutely unable to protect it.

Handing it over to other major sects might bring havoc to the world. The leaders of those sects wouldn’t let such a technique threaten their positions, and they might well get rid of me immediately.

But a doctor’s benevolence, I believe, would not cause harm to me over a Cultivation Technique. The esteemed doctors, after obtaining this technique, would not bring harm to the world.

The most crucial point is that the Dao Sects, Sword Sects, and Demon Sects rely on martial force to hold higher cultivation resources. And healers, treating illnesses and saving lives, use a great deal of their cultivation time, which results in a lack of fame, not even having a single person at the Mahayana Stage. I believe healers should not fall into such decline. With this technique, it could help the Medical sect flourish.”

“Well said. The Medical Path should flourish,” the Sect Leader clapped and laughed. “Wang Chong, I didn’t expect someone of your young age to have such a kind heart, truly deserving to enter my Medical Sect!”

“Sect Leader, I also do not wish for the Cultivation Technique my master spent so much effort creating to be buried, or to be treated as a Demon Cultivation Art by everyone,” Duge sighed. “This technique can also be used to treat diseases and save lives.

Moreover, my master also said that when this technique is practiced to a profound level, it can capture the Creation of Heaven and Earth for one’s own use, which is truly comprehending the root of the Tao.

With my abilities, I’m afraid I will never understand the true essence of this technique in this lifetime. Coming to the Medical Immortal Valley, I also wish to rely on the collective wisdom of the esteemed doctors to delve into this technique, to restore the complete doctrine destroyed by my master, and to develop this technique to an even higher level…”

To capture the Creation of Heaven and Earth for one’s own use?

The many elders of the Medical Immortal Valley looked at one another, at the same time seeing the greed in each other’s eyes.

This was a massive opportunity delivered right to their doorstep!

“Good, let us examine this Cultivation Technique together,” the Sect Leader looked at Duge, and then suddenly shook his head, saying, “Wang Chong, I originally wanted to take you on as a disciple, but your master’s technique is already approaching the way of Creation, and with my ability, I’m afraid I cannot teach you. How about this, let me take you as a disciple on behalf of your master, and you and I can call each other brothers? Your master’s spiritual tablet can also be enshrined in our Medical Immortal Sect…”

“My master’s spiritual tablet can also be enshrined in the Medical Immortal Sect?” Duge seemed astonished by the good news.

“Naturally,” the Sect Leader said with a smile. “Junior Brother has offered a Cultivation Technique and aided the grand rise of our medical path, all of the Medical Immortal Sect owes such a great debt to your master, it’s only right that your master receives this honor…”

“Thank you, Sect Leader.” Duge looked gratefully at the Sect Leader, bowing deeply.
