"A special thod, huh...overnight!"
Overnight!
Initially, Han Qiuyun, with a face full of disappointnt, suddenly revealed a look of wild joy.
Han Qiuyun had already witnessed Su Chen's dical skills with her own eyes.
She also understood that acupuncture alone couldn't have such an imdiate effect.
Thus, the root of everything must be the Inner Power that Su Chen spoke of.
Inner Power was intangible and elusive.
Previously, she hadn't even believed in its existence.
But now, faced with undeniable evidence, she had no choice but to believe.
However, Su Chen had previously told her that to learn Inner Power, with her aptitude, it would take at least twenty years!
Upon learning this news, she was naturally extrely disappointed.
Unexpectedly,
Su Chen could actually grant her Inner Power overnight.
Naturally, she was delighted.
"But..." Su Chen suddenly paused.
Hearing these words from Su Chen, Han Qiuyun's heart leapt to her throat.
At this mont, what she feared most was hearing those words.
Because usually what follows them is hardly ever good.
"However, I must make sothing clear to you in advance..." Su Chen pondered for a mont, "If you obtain Inner Power through this thod, whatever amount of Inner Power you get will be the maximum you can have for the rest of your life. That is to say... you will have no chance to advance to higher levels!"
Nothing can be achieved in one step.
This is especially true for cultivation.
To gain Inner Power through special ans, what one loses is the chance for everlasting advancent.
Whatever the Inner Power level at the ti of acquisition, that is all one will ever have for life.
In the Inner Power Realm, the strength of Inner Power is divided by years.
The unit of asurent is years; one year of Inner Power Cultivation is the total amount of Inner Power that a person with normal talent can enhance in one year through the practice of standard Inner Cultivation thods.
Normally, one year of practice gains one year of Inner Power.
Ten years of practice results in ten years of Inner Power.
Of course, the quantity of Inner Power isn't determined solely by the years of practice.
Depending on the Cultivation Technique, fortuitous encounters, and consuming so heaven-sent treasures, one can increase the amount in a unit of ti far beyond what is typical.
Simply put, so people can attain two or even three years of Cultivation in one year of practice.
The higher the talent, the stronger the internal Cultivation thods practiced, and the more heaven-sent treasures consud, the stronger the Cultivation obtained within the sa unit of ti.
Take Su Chen, for instance; he has spent far less ti cultivating Inner Power than his sister-in-law, Long Lan.
Yet, his Inner Strength Cultivation is already on the verge of reaching the sa level as hers.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have won in the battle against Long Lan.
Long Lan is a natural talent in Inner Strength Cultivation.
Ten years of her cultivating Inner Power has gained her over thirty years' worth of Inner Power Cultivation.
Such talent is one in ten thousand.
And Su Chen is surpassing her!
Su Chen's words left Han Qiuyun stunned.
Although she had not cultivated Inner Power, she understood this principle.
Being unable to advance to higher levels ant that her potential was limited, and so too would be the levels she could reach in the future.
"But even if you only end up with five years of Inner Power Cultivation, that will be enough to handle most difficult and complex diseases," Su Chen continued.
Han Qiuyun fell into thought.
After a mont, she asked, "If I start cultivating now, how long will it take to have five years of Inner Power?"
"I've told you, with your aptitude, it would take twenty years just to get started, and you've already missed the pri age for cultivation. By then, reaching the level where one year of practice amounts to one year of Cultivation would be very hard. That is to say, at the very least, you would need twenty-five years," Su Chen stated frankly.
Han Qiuyun's talent was actually even less than he had ntioned.
By that ti, it was quite possible that her Cultivation wouldn't increase by one year's worth for every year of practice, but rather, she might need two, three, or even five years of practice to potentially increase by one year's Cultivation.
There's no helping it; with lower talent and having missed the optimal age for cultivation, attempting to cultivate Inner Power was already a task as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Otherwise, he would have already imparted the Inner Power techniques to Lin Xi.
"So you're saying, it will take at least twenty-five years before I can potentially start practicing dicine...I'm twenty-eight now, so in twenty-five years, I will be fifty-three..." Han Qiuyun calculated in her mind.
At the age of fifty-three, assuming she could live to eighty, the ti she could spend curing and healing would only be twenty-so years.
If so, why not obtain Inner Power now and start curing and healing imdiately?
"I've decided. I want to have Inner Power right away!" Han Qiuyun bit her lip and said.
"There is another thing I must make clear to you: after cultivating Inner Power, your body will beco much better than before, and your lifespan will greatly increase. If your Inner Strength Cultivation reaches the pinnacle, living over a hundred years would be quite easy. Are you sure you still want to make this choice?" Su Chen narrowed his eyes as he spoke.
Living a long life for a hundred years is sothing countless people dream of.
For so super-rich individuals,
they would willingly pay any amount of wealth to live one more year.
"I'm sure!" Han Qiuyun didn't ponder long.
Although by normal cultivation, she might be able to advance her Inner Power to very high levels and live a century or more,
if the family's dical inheritance ended with her, then her life would be aningless.
What point is there in living a hundred or two hundred years?
For soone born into a family of traditional Chinese dicine, traditional dicine ans everything.
Thus, she chose to sacrifice her potential for traditional dicine's success.
To ensure the nearly-extinct practice of traditional Chinese dicine could be accepted by the people.
If she truly could help raise traditional dicine to prominence, what would it matter if she lived several decades less?
A look of admiration flashed in Su Chen's eyes.
In fact, helping soone with no Inner Power and extrely poor aptitude to obtain Inner Power does co at a cost to him.
And it's not a small cost either.
Had Han Qiuyun not had this determination, he might have regretted his decision.
"Then, let's begin," Su Chen said indifferently.
"How, how should I do it?" Han Qiuyun looked at Su Chen bewildered, utterly clueless about cultivating Inner Power,
let alone the special thod.
"Relax your mind," instructed Su Chen.
