Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme

Thus, half a month later.

In the quiet room of the Security Hall, Xu Yang sat alone, silently practicing the Martial Arts Scripture.

Although the Great Zhou Martial Scriptures synthesized many top martial arts and could always circulate the heavens, whether standing, lying down, eating, or sleeping, thus autonomously enhancing one’s power, this did not prevent Xu Yang from practicing in meditation. The speed of this “active” cultivation vastly surpassed the “passive” execution.

In just sixteen short years, he had managed to cultivate traits such as “Eternal

Youth,” “Martial Path Communicates with God,” and “Founder of Martial Scripture,” largely thanks to the miraculous effectiveness of the Martial Scriptures, as well as his own relentless hard work and training. The combination of the two meant that sixteen years were equivalent to a hundred years of diligent practice in the Great Zhou.

Otherwise, with his current level of cultivation and the strength of his Divine

Soul, it would have been utterly impossible to transfer traits like “Martial Path Communicates with God” and “Founder of Martial Scripture” to support his doppelgänger at the start.

“Knock! Knock!”

“Master!”

Just when Xu Yang was circulating his cultivation, the door was quietly tapped.

The voice of his eldest disciple, Su Beixuan, followed, “They have arrived.”

Xu Yang opened his eyes, with the Gang Qi in his body still circulating, just shifting from “active” to “passive.” He then stood up and walked toward the door.

This was also one of the marvelous features of the Great Zhou Martial Scriptures: integrating the martial arts of the world, discarding the dross and keeping the essence, encompassing everything without conflict, combining Yin and Yang, embodying Tai Chi Chaos Yuan, coexisting with the Four Methods and Five Elements. Unless breaking through a major realm, there was absolutely no possibility of failure in cultivation, nor any risk of conflict in the meridians or of going berserk.

Xu Yang came to the door and did not waste words, directly asking the waiting Su Beixuan, “How is it?”

Su Beixuan replied solemnly, “The injuries are very severe; it’s quite dire. Third sister is treating them.”

“Then let’s go.”

“Yes!”

In a quiet room, two young men stood beside a bed, looking anxious and hesitant to speak.

On the bed, two women were sitting upright. The one at the front, dressed in white, had a beautiful face, now deathly pale with a bluish-black tint, and black blood oozed from her purple lips, dropping onto the bed where it steamed up little wisps of smoke.

The woman behind her, clad in a green cyan gown, pointed her sword-like fingers onto the back of the woman in white, right in the middle of a meridian point, with a clear and visible Qi emanating from her fingertips, warm and mellow yet vigorous and robust.

That Qi entered the body of the woman in white, attempting to neutralize the cold poison within her, but it seemed to touch something, and with a sudden abnormal sound, a surge of Extremely Cold Air of Ice Mysterious spilled out. Not only did it freeze a layer of frost on the woman in white, but even the Qi that was healing her was affected.

“Bang!”

Eventually, there was an explosive sound—the Qi froze, shattered into ice, and the woman dressed in green, who was administering treatment, was impacted, her body trembling and her right hand frosted over, rigid as if even the blood within had been frozen.

“Mother!”

“Doctor! ”

The two onlooking youths were shocked and hurried forward, wanting to help but not knowing what to do. At that moment…

“Creak! ”

A soft sound as the door was pushed open.

“Who?”

The two were startled and turned around to see a person walking in calmly, dressed in plain green, exuding ease.

Although they did not sense any malice, their long time on the run still left the two youths very tense. They immediately stood in front of the bed, on guard against the newcomer.

But Xu Yang did not pay attention to them and walked straight up. The two wanted to stop him, but they were pushed aside by an unseen force, only able to watch helplessly as he approached the bed.

“Ma… Master!”

The woman in green on the bed also noticed him and tried to get up.

Xu Yang shook his head, reached out a hand, pressed it on her shoulder, and lightly channeled his Qi.

“Crack! ”

With a series of crisp sounds, the frozen hand, and the creeping ice that was about to invade the body from the arm, instantly shattered, turning into wisp of mist that dissipated, allowing the hand that turned purplish-black to rapidly regain its color.

The woman was freed from the freezing condition, exhaled a breath of cold air, and looked at Xu Yang with a slight shock, “Master, this cold poison… it’s truly terrifying. ”

Xu Yang smiled and spoke no further, “Let me take over.”

“Yes!”

The woman got up and made room.

Xu Yang did not take a sitting position on the bed but casually sat beside it. He then lifted his hand, summoning True Gang Qi, and immediately, a brilliant light appeared. It was dazzling but not blinding, rather gentle like the warm sun in spring, instantly warming up the room that had just been cold.

The scroll of Pure Yang’s Power, the art of rejuvenation!

The techniques of the Martial Arts Scripture, both scrolls working together, combined with the power of Martial Path Communicates with God, Xu Yang pressed a hand downwards onto the woman’s back, transferring the Pure Yang’s Power into her body gradually.

Suddenly…

“Hiss! ”

The woman moaned softly, and plumes of smoke rose. The ice that had frozen her began to melt rapidly, together with the pallor, the underlying bluish-black tint dissipated, hints of color returned, and the vitality within reignited…

Thus.

After a moment…

“Pfft!”

With a surge of Xu Yang’s palm, the woman’s body shuddered, and she spat out a mouthful of black blood containing lumps of ice, falling onto the bed and steaming, immediately turning into a trickle of blood-water.

“Mother!”

The two youths were startled, their eyes filled with worry, yet not daring to disturb.

They weren’t fools. They could naturally tell that this seemingly not much older youth was the master of the beautiful doctor—their destination, the top divine physician in Xuzhou and even throughout the world: Xu Xian, Xu Qingyang.

“Ice Mysterious Power?”

Xu Yang withdrew his hand and murmured, “Indeed extraordinary, but what a pity… It’s not quite there yet!”

Just now, he had harnessed the essence of Pure Yang’s Power, the rejuvenating art from the life-giving scroll, and the force of Martial Path Communicates with God, conjuring a Divine Gang of Pure Yang Rebirth. He channeled it into the body of the woman in white, dispersing the persistent cold poison entwined within her.

In the Great Zhou world, this technique would be enough to dissolve all unique cold poisons. Whether it be the Xuanming’s Godly Palm, the True Qi of Cold Ice, or the Jiuyin’s Ultimate Extreme Strength, none could withstand his Divine Gang of Pure Yang Rebirth.

But… the cold poison in this woman’s body put up a stubborn resistance for a good while and was not completely eliminated in the end.

Why?

Because it was not an ordinary cold poison, but one equivalent to Divine Gang, possessing Divine Intent.

It originated from a martial arts practitioner of the Four-Realm, one with True Gang Spirit Condensation.

That is…

“Ice Mvsterious Power!”

“Yuwen Sect!”

“Yuwen Huaji!”

Ice Mysterious Power was the hereditary secret technique of one of the four great noble families, the Yuwen Sect.

Legend has it that within the Yuwen Sect, only two people truly mastered this technique. One was the sect leader, Yuwen Shang, the other was Yuwen Shang’s subordinate, the second strongest in the Yuwen Sect, the current Imperial Guard Commander of the Sui Dynasty—Yuwen Huaji!

This technique was the first of the Divine Intent Martial Arts that Xu Yang came into contact with outside of his own strength of Martial Path Communicates with God.

He was quite interested in this martial art that could be cultivated to condense Divine Intent and step into the Four-Realm of the Martial Path.

Although he had also deduced the method of Four-Realm Divine Intent in the Great Zhou world, deduction was merely deduction and not successful, much less mature. How could it be compared with the Divine Intent Martial Arts that had been passed down for hundreds of years?

Just now, Xu Yang could clearly feel that within the cold poison, there was a distinctive force, a combination of spirit and Gang Qi, a transformation from death to life, from nothingness to existence, turning decay into a miracle, emanating an extreme cold ambiance that other cold poisons could not possess.

Only with this could it contend against his Divine Gang of Pure Yang Rebirth.

Without a doubt, that was Divine Intent, the Divine Intent of Ice Mysterious Power.

“Mother!”

Xu Yang’s thoughts were his own and unrelated to the other two who, seeing the woman in white spitting blood, also got up to leave, leaving the two young men with no choice but to rush to the bedside to check on her condition.

After spewing out that mouthful of black blood, the pale color on the woman’s face decreased significantly, her vitality seemingly restored somewhat. She came around upon hearing the young men’s shouts, “Where… am I?”

“In Xuzhou, we’ve reached Xuzhou, Mother!”

“It was Doctor Xu, no, Doctor Xu who saved you!”

The two young men, seeing her become conscious, grew even more excited, quickly explaining the situation to her.

“Xuzhou?”

“Doctor Xu?”

Fu Junjuan was momentarily stunned before regaining her senses, turning to look at Xu Yang and struggling to sit up, “Thank you, Doctor Xu, for saving me, Junjuan…”

“Don’t be too quick to thank me.”

Xu Yang interrupted her, “There’s still some of the cold poison remaining in your body. If it’s not completely removed, your life is still in danger.”

“This…”

Upon hearing this, Fu Junjuan was taken aback, and the two young men were even more shocked, hastily prostrating themselves, “Doctor Xu, you’re so powerful, you must have a way, right? Please show mercy and save our mother!”

“It can be saved.”

Xu Yang’s expression unchanged, he calmly said, “But first, we need to talk about the consultation fee.”

“Consultation fee?”

Hearing this, all three were taken aback, their expressions slightly strange, but they quickly recovered, saying again and again, “No problem, just name the price, Doctor Xu, even if it’s mountains of gold and silver, we’ll find a way to get it for you.”

Xu Yang shook his head, getting straight to the point, “I want the Longevity Jue on your persons!”

“Longevity Jue?!”

This statement made all three’s eyes harden, and involuntarily, Fu Junjuan’s grip tightened on the sword next to her.

Having been pursued by Yuwen Huaji for so long, they were naturally aware of what Longevity Jue was and of its tremendous allure.

Now, this unfathomably strong Doctor Xu actually knew of this book’s presence on their persons, didn’t that mean walking into a tiger’s den…

“A book for a life, to exchange or not is up to you,” Xu Yang said indifferently, interrupting their thoughts, “I never force anyone!”

Upon hearing this, all three fell silent.

But it didn’t take long for the more robust-looking of the two young men to raise his head, “We’ll exchange, we’ll do it!”

The other young man also agreed, “Yes, we’ll exchange. If it can save Mother’s life, what’s a book worth?”

“Doctor Xu, this is the Longevity Jue. We ask for nothing else but for you to save our mother!”

Having said this, they took out an unassuming looking book and presented it to Xu Yang with both hands.

“Xiao Zhong, Xiao Ling…”

Seeing this, Fu Junjuan wanted to intervene, but she stopped halfway through her sentence..
