You have the qualifications to snatch number one, yet you’re sitting on Diaoyutai without any anxiety…”
Fang Wubing waved his hand, “Don’t belittle like that.
If we truly fought, I might not necessarily be able to beat Dugu Ying.
Well, that’s unless my health were in optimal condition.”
“My current physical state wouldn’t allow to engage in a fully-fledged fight, so in any battle, I resort to hurling talismans and magical treasures around.
It’s all about burning enough spiritual Qi stones – once I’ve burned enough, there’s no one I can’t handle.”
“Do you know how I attained my seventh rank?
I didn’t actually plan on provoking the guy who was in the seventh position, but he mocked .
Although I personally don’t mind offending others too much, I am the Saint Child of the Multi-Treasure Dao Sect.
I needed to uphold the honor of my sect, hence I decided to take on the battle.”
“That guy- I almost half killed him by hurling talismans and magical treasures at him, after which I ascended to the seventh rank.
Luckily, most people highly value their lives; hence, after becoming seventh, no one typically challenged .
After all, there’s no real honor in defeating , and losing to would be even more frustrating.”
“The reason why I never challenged the number one is because even if I won, not everyone would necessarily acknowledge my position.
Furthermore, I could burn spiritual Qi stones and battle a golden immortal; why would I bother competing for the first place?”
“Most importantly, engaging in a single fight might consu tens of millions of spiritual Qi stones.
I may not be poor, but I can’t afford to burn spiritual qi like this.
You know, I never pick fights because I don’t want to burn my spiritual qi.”
“If I were a little more belligerent or hot-headed, even a billion spiritual stones might not be enough to sustain …”
Lin Chen laughed at Fang Wubing’s words, “You didn’t seem so frugal when you were fighting Dugu Ying, did you?”
Fang Wubing responded with a hearty laugh, “When it cos to burning spiritual Qi stones, you’ve got to make a spectacle of it.
If you’re miserly about it, it will only cause others to underestimate you.
If you’re generous and make others unsure of your resources, no one would dare to harbor any ill thoughts.
After all, being on the receiving end of such lavish expenditure is truly distressing.”
Lin Chen nodded in agreent, “Especially for those who think they are stronger than you, but end up being defeated by your talismans and consumable magical treasures.
They definitely feel frustrated.
Dugu Ying was almost at the point of exploding.”
Fang Wubing slapped his thigh in glee, “Seeing him resenting to death gave a real thrill.”
Ever since Lin Chen disclosed his real identity, the two beca more friendly with each other.
Ever since Lin Chen arrived in the Immortal Realm, the majority of the people he encountered were immortals.
He had seen plenty who looked down on mortals or lower-level cultivators.
But eting Fang Wubing was a rare occasion where he could let loose.
They had a rather smooth and enjoyable banquet session.
Once Lin Chen woke up and finished washing up, he asked casually, “Is Fang Wubing awake yet?”
Liu Yuqi replied, “He has been awake for a while.
According to him, he feels really terrible.
His handmaidens are busy taking care of him…”
Lin Chen paused for a mont, then chuckled, “He enjoyed himself yesterday, and now he’s paying the price.
Let’s go check on him.”
Once Lin Chen entered Fang Wubing’s room, he found Fang Wubing collapsed on his bed, pallid and sweaty.
One of the handmaids was wiping his sweat, while the other was massaging him to soothe his tense body.
“How are you feeling?”
Fang Wubing managed a bitter smile, “I’m feeling pretty awful, but I’m used to it.
I’ll get through it.”
Lin Chen sat down by the bed, checked him over and said, “Let try a few acupuncture points.”
Fang Wubing’s eyes brightened, “Do you have a solution?”
“This is just a symptom your body is showing; I can’t cure it without Phoenix Vermillion Blood Pill.
However, I can definitely ease the pain a bit and make you feel comfortable…
So, take off your jacket.”
After his handmaid helped Fang Wubing take off his jacket and lay flat on the bed, Lin Chen took out a silver needle, “Relax, don’t resist…”
As Lin Chen spoke, he began inserting the silver needle into various acupoints on Fang Wubing’s body.
Lin Chen applied the Huitian Needle to the Immortal Spirit Qi, stimulating the acupoints.
Soon, Fang Wubing felt a warm sensation flowing through his ridians, and within a short ti, the warmth connected various acupoints, causing his physical aches to gradually subside.
Fang Wubing’s eyes widened in surprise, “That’s amazing, what kind of skill is this?”
Lin Chen replied, “Huitian Needle, a technique used in the mortal world.”
Fang Wubing felt more and more invigorated, and the uncomfortable sensations reduced drastically.
He was delighted, “This mortal technique can treat an immortal’s body?
That’s extraordinary!”
Lin Chen said with a laugh, “The basic principles of dicine are the sa.
I’ve adapted it appropriately, with surprisingly effective results.”
When Lin Chen first arrived in the Barren Wilderness, he felt that his dical skills were essentially useless.
However, as his own strength improved and his mastery over spiritual Qi beca more exquisite, Lin Chen found out that treating immortals with Immortal Spirit Qi through acupuncture could produce similar results to treating regular people in the mortal world.
In a short while, Fang Wubing found that all the annoying aches in his body had disappeared, and his weakness had significantly improved.
Fang Wubing happily sat up from the bed, “Lin Chen, you truly are a Divine Doctor.
I am certainly indebted to you…”
