Chapter 529: What Are You Standing There For? Go and Pour Me a Cup of Water!

Ling shiʼs treatment required eight steps, Su shiʼs required seven steps, and even Pavilion Master Kangʼs would require five steps. Yet, this fellow actually solved the problem using a single step?

”Nonsense! You are dreaming!”

At that moment, Pavilion Master Kang harrumphed coldly. His face was steeled, and the displeasure on it was clear, ”Every single cultivation technique that is passed down is created, tested, and refined by innumerable predecessors. How can it be changed that easily? If that cultivator were to try an untested cultivation technique in a wounded state, putting aside whether it would be possible to reach Transcendent Mortal realm or not, their cultivation might even go berserk, thus exacerbating their wounds and putting them at risk of death. As a master teacher, how can you come up with such a flippant solution?”

After hearing the words of the two elders, his expectations of the young man had been lifted. Yet, he didnʼt expect the other party to answer his question so frivolously.

If a cultivation technique could be modified that easily, then what was the value of a secret art?

Not to mention, there was a foreign zhenqi existent in the other partyʼs body. Without neutralizing it, recovering from oneʼs injuries, and conditioning oneʼs physical body... how could one attempt for a higher cultivation realm?

In the end, the other party failed to live up to his name.

If they were to do so, not only would they fail to save the cultivator, the cultivator would even die because of them. The dignity of the Master Teacher Pavilion would vanish in an instant.

”Berserk? You are overthinking it!”

Waving his hands to interrupt the other partyʼs reprimanding, Zhang Xuan looked at Pavilion Master Kang impassively, ”Youʼll know whether it is effective or not once I tell you the new route for the zhenqi circulation! Upon leaving the dantian, the cultivatorʼs zhenqi will flow through the Taiyi, Guanmen, Liangmen... and finally, itʼll gather at Qishe. After three circulations, one should be able to try for Transcendent Mortal realm, and thereʼll be a ninety percent chance of success!”

Possessing the Heavenʼs Path Divine Art, Zhang Xuan grasped the very essence of cultivation itself. While modifying a cultivation technique, just like the other party said, was difficult, to him, it wasnʼt an issue at all.

By slightly modifying the zhenqi route to circumvent the injured portion and mediating the foreign zhenqi in the cultivatorʼs body, reaching Transcendent Mortal realm wouldnʼt be a problem.

”Flow through Taiyi, Guanmen, and Liangmen...”

The trio frowned.

This zhenqi route was completely unheard of in normal cultivation techniques. Even as 4-star master teachers, they werenʼt able to deduce its feasibility in an instant.

Every single cultivation technique needed to be tried in action before a conclusion could be made about it. Even master teachers were unable to determine something was feasible or not immediately just by listening to it once.

”Youʼre saying that as long as the cultivator cultivates using this method, sheʼll be able to achieve a breakthrough immediately?” Pavilion Master Kangʼs complexion turned even more awful.

It was extremely difficult for even an ordinary cultivator to achieve a breakthrough. To have a severely injured cultivator achieve a breakthrough just by circulating oneʼs zhenqi in the given pathway thrice... You must be joking!

”Thatʼs right!”

Zhang Xuan replied nonchalantly, ”Iʼve taken a look at the information given, and the cultivator is wounded by searing sword qi. This sword qi carries an exceptionally sharp edge, and after seeping into the cultivatorʼs body through the wound in her left chest, it was traveling toward her dantian.

”The cultivation technique the cultivator cultivated was the [Great Ancient Incursion Art]. The technique focused heavily on ʼsharpnessʼ and ʼburstʼ. Continuous usage of this technique results in the weakening of oneʼs zhenqi, and three consecutive usages will deplete oneʼs zhenqi! This is of similar nature to the searing sword qi in the sense that they are both extremely violent energy that will destroy all that stand their path.
