Shen Qiang's words left Qian Shanxue startled.
"What do you mean? Once the Qi Sea is broken, it is the same as losing all cultivation—it's common knowledge in the Cultivation World that nobody can save him now. Yet you're saying it's a piece of cake?"
Shen Qiang smiled faintly, the secrets of repairing the Qi Sea from the Medical Saint Inheritance thunderously appearing in his mind.
Everything has its unique operating principles.
The Qi Sea is no exception.
The reason why the Cultivation World concludes that once the Qi Sea is ruptured it can't be repaired is that though located inside the body, the Qi Sea is not a concrete organ, so even if one wants to treat it, there is simply no way to start.
But in fact.
The characteristics of the Qi Sea are extremely similar to a circuit board.
Simply put, it creates an environment similar to an electronic circuit through complex construction to contain the True Qi.
Not understanding, of course, one can't make a move.
If one grasps the operating principles and the basic structure's characteristics, then as long as the broken circuit of the Qi Sea is repaired and reconnected, then nothing is an issue anymore.
His wrist vibrated.
Seven silver needles pierced through the body.
Hum!
The faint vibrating sound left Qian Shanxue dumbfounded.
Feeling the rapidly gathering nature's spiritual energy and watching the seven silver needles move on their own like electric toys, Qian Shanxue's eyes were full of astonishment: "Can this really work? And aren't you a surgeon? Shouldn't you be operating on him?"
Shen Qiang laughed, "What use is cutting open something intangible and formless like the Qi Sea? The repair of the Qi Sea can only use Heavenly Spirit Energy, and all it takes is patiently waiting. Given his condition, it should initially recover in about two hours, the rest will be up to his own recuperation."
"Without excessively cultivating energy, it should take roughly half a year to fully recover."
Qian Shanxue looked at Shen Qiang in surprise, and somewhat incredulously said, "Really?"
Shen Qiang sighed, greedily breathing in the fresh air after the rain. When the moonlight spilled through the gaps in the scattered clouds, Shen Qiang said solemnly, "I have three 'do not save' rules: those who commit heinous crimes, I do not save! Those who do not believe in me, I do not save! Those who annoy me, I do not save!"
Turning his head to look at the astonished Qian Shanxue, Shen Qiang said, "Even you wouldn't be an exception, so you either take him away now or just watch quietly."
Qian Shanxue seemed to realize that her own doubts might have displeased Shen Qiang. After keeping silent for a while, she then said softly, "He is my teacher, I always call him instructor, but in my heart, he is more like a father."
Shen Qiang was taken aback, he looked at the man who appeared to be in bad shape with some surprise.
"He always calls me 967A, because I'm the 7th ranked student from the 96 Class A."
"Cultivation academy?" Shen Qiang asked curiously.
The silent Qian Shanxue quietly sat down on the stone bench of the terrace's stone table, looking at the man lying on the hospital bed, she said, "Kind of. That place is a school where Dragon Nest cultivates its descendants."
Dragon Nest?
Shen Qiang associated it inexplicably with Dragon Group.
"Is it straight into the Dragon Group after good cultivation?" Shen Qiang asked curiously.
Qian Shanxue took a deep breath, "There are multiple assessments, and only those who demonstrate excellent abilities in some area can enter the Dragon Group, while most will end up as logistical staff."
Shen Qiang uttered an "Oh" and then asked, "So does that mean my children could also go to school there?"
Qian Shanxue smiled and then sighed, "That place is not good; I guess your children won't like it."
"How could that be? I think you've taught them very well. Of course, except for the fact you never go out, which is a bit speechless, everything else is good."
Just then, Shen Qiang heard the mannequin clothing expert shouting from inside the room, "Boss? Boss? Is that you?"
Shen Qiang said, "It's me. I'm talking with a friend. Don't come out. The emergency power will start on its own; just go on with your work."
The mannequin clothing expert uttered an "oh" and lapsed into silence.
By this time, the neighborhood had already become lively, and the property management staff seemed to be repairing the electrical facilities damaged by the earlier lightning.
But in reality, the problem was not significant.
Because Shen Qiang's location was high up, the terrifying current hadn't really affected the residents downstairs too much.
Yet, because of the electromagnetic pulse, some people's home appliances still encountered some issues.
But this couldn't be traced back to Shen Qiang.
"I was an orphan. Until I achieved Foundation Establishment, 967A was my name." Looking at Shen Qiang, Qian Shanxue spoke in a heavy tone, "The real reason I'm called Qian Shanxue is that during Foundation Establishment, I saw a myriad of flying snow across my Qi Sea. So, the instructor at the time said, 'Then, your name will be Qian Shanxue.'"
Shen Qiang was startled and then laughed, "So that's how it is. I've always thought your surname was Qian."
With a calm expression, Qian Shanxue gazed at Shen Qiang and said, "On the day I established my foundation, there was also a change in the celestial phenomena." Turning her gaze to the man on the hospital bed, Qian Shanxue said, "The instructor protected me. At that time, his Cultivation was only at the Yang God Realm."
Staring intently at Shen Qiang, Qian Shanxue said coldly, "And now, his Cultivation has reached the Peak of the Mixed Element, one step away from forming a Dao Fruit. In such a state, he was gravely wounded in a desperate fight and was still unable to prevent the change in celestial phenomena. So now, I'm very curious. What exactly did you see during your Foundation Establishment?"
Hearing this, looking into Qian Shanxue's beautiful eyes.
Shen Qiang only felt a boom in his mind!
Because from the start to the end of Foundation Establishment, to seeing this man, giving aid, and up to now, all the events were connected, so much so that Shen Qiang even forgot to consider whether his Foundation Establishment was successful.
But now, when Qian Shanxue asked, Shen Qiang suddenly awoke.
Foundation Establishment initiation.
Shen Qiang remembered squatting on a small patch of level ground, watching a seed go through the seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter; sprouting, growing, fruiting, withering, and the seed sprouting and growing and fruiting and withering again.
Shen Qiang didn't remember why he squatted there obediently, watching the seed's infinite cycle of life.
His blank mind also couldn't recall any epiphanies; he only remembered, after not knowing how many times he watched this cycle, he felt hungry and began to walk.
Forests that seemed endless, deserts devoid of life, over snow mountains towering into the clouds, crossing over mountains, rivers, and seas. After what seemed like a century-long journey of search, Shen Qiang still didn't see the end of the world.
But driven by intense hunger, he devoured a Giant Dragon wrapped in lightning.
"Was that the Fetal Dragon Essence?" Shen Qiang was bewildered.
And meanwhile, Qian Shanxue, waiting for Shen Qiang's answer, watched, shocked, as specks of lightning, faintly visible, wrapped around Shen Qiang's body.
"So strong! An Electric Element expert? Just after completing Foundation Establishment, encircled by thunder; could he be a King Realm Foundation Establishment, even stronger than me?"
And almost at the moment Qian Shanxue made her judgment in her heart.
Shen Qiang, with a dazed expression, silently reminisced in his mind.
"Seasons cycle, wind, frost, snow, and rain, mountains, seas, deserts, forests, an endless horizon... Perhaps I am… the Emperor Realm!"
