Chapter 478: Chapter 96: Treating Petrification Dao Injury_2
 

Zhang Zhongyi began to pack up the silver needles and herbal medicines, and so forth.

Sun Lingtong sat cross-legged nearby, silently practicing breathing control, actively adjusting her state.

Ning Zhuo closed his eyes and brewed his thoughts in his mind, continuously conceiving targeted spells.

His mastery was profound, and conceiving these spells was extremely easy for him, as simple as lifting a hand or moving a foot.

Soon, he opened his eyes and said to Zhang Zhongyi, “I have figured it out.”

At this moment, Zhang Zhongyi had not finished packing up the herbs yet. He smiled, “Young Master Ning Zhuo, your talent is extraordinary, to have conceived of one so quickly.”

...

“But I am no Earth Element Grandmaster; next, we need to use spells to come up with methods to aid the treatment.”

“Therefore, the more spells we conceive, the better I can understand the situation, and the more reasonable the devised methods of assistance will be.”

Ning Zhuo was slightly startled. His first instinct was to conceal some of his skill, but upon glancing at Sun Lingtong, he decided to tell the truth, “Lord Zhang, are three spells enough?”

Zhang Zhongyi smiled, “Three spells are sufficient. Actually, two would have been barely enough.”

Ning Zhuo then chuckled, “Then it’s settled, I have thought of three.”

Zhang Zhongyi, “Hmm?”

Ning Zhuo immediately took out a blank Jade Slip and engraved these three spells into it.

After looking at the Jade Slip, Zhang Zhongyi could not help but look up at Ning Zhuo, wondering in his heart, “These three Cultivation Techniques really seem to be the real deal. But what’s with this young man Ning Zhuo? If these spells all work, then his mastery of the Earth Element Realm seems quite extraordinary!”

He studied carefully and found the three spells addressed petrification from three different angles, ingeniously conceived, making one admire the sheer brilliance.

The first spell originated from vital blood, repairing from the bones, meridians, and flesh in sequence.

The second spell fought petrification with petrification, intensifying the stone transformation till it exceeded its limits, crumbled, and turned to sand.

The third spell used Mana to penetrate Sun Lingtong’s Stone Arm, using Mana to influence, unblock, and maintain balance, continuously removing Stone Skin, healing the body as if continuously infusing clear water into a basin of muddy water, letting it flow out, ultimately achieving cure.

Zhang Zhongyi pondered for a long time, imagined three auxiliary methods, and used Divine Sense to record them into the Jade Slip, handing it to Ning Zhuo for examination.

Ning Zhuo read the Jade Slip and immediately immersed himself in it.

The first auxiliary treatment involved using Rotting Astragalus, Silver Dragon Bile Herb, Chuanxiong Mountain, and Golden Ginseng as the main ingredients. Rotting Astragalus enhanced the physical body, Silver Dragon Bile Herb cleared heat and detoxified, Chuanxiong invigorated the blood and dispelled stasis, and Golden Ginseng greatly nourished Vital Energy, truly integrating treatment and nourishment.

The second treatment method involved creating pills from Gold and Silver Starlight Flowers, Divine Eagle Goji, Fire Bitter Orange, and Night Angelica, to be used both internally and externally.

The third method used acupuncture, focusing on the elbow crease punID to relieve petrification pressure and increase blood flow. Needling the shoulder well and hundred meetings points relaxed the flesh and regulated the body’s blood and Qi.

Ning Zhuo was highly satisfied with these three auxiliary treatments, praising, “Worthy of being the Imperial Physician! They complement my three spells perfectly, forming an impeccable combination.”

Zhang Zhongyi, however, shook his head and listed the drawbacks of each treatment.

The first required long-term medication, leading to accumulated drug effects that would need more time later to resolve the residuals.

The second, although fastest in showing effects, had pills whose efficacy varied between individuals, possibly causing muscle atrophy.

The third, using acupuncture in conjunction with the body’s Qi, although moderate and steady, involved frequent needling, creating substantial pressure, and any mistake could lead to future blockages in the meridians.

Ning Zhuo heard this and fell into silence.

Worried about Sun Lingtong, he naturally wanted to do his utmost to treat his boss’s injuries.

All three treatments had drawbacks and risks. On himself, Ning Zhuo could disregard these, but he sought to minimize risks and drawbacks as much as possible for Sun Lingtong.

Sun Lingtong understood Ning Zhuo well, “Little Zhuo, it’s not a big deal. Even if there are some residual ailments, they’re surely better than my current predicament.”

“Let’s start the treatment quickly; these recent days have been very tough for me.”

Zhang Zhongyi also spoke, “I have treated three Dao Injuries in the past. The spells you, Young Master Ning Zhuo, have designed are already outstandingly good, astonishing.”

“Based on my experience, improving to another level in a short period would almost be impossible.”

“Realms are not something achieved overnight.”

Ning Zhuo sighed inwardly, “Isn’t my Five Elements Realm shaped in an instant?”

“Never mind.”

He affirmed to himself that the spells he had just designed indeed exhausted all his effort, squeezed all his ingenuity, and he would not be able to design better ones in a short time.

Next, Ning Zhuo and Zhang Zhongyi discussed which treatment plan to adopt.

Following Sun Lingtong’s impulsive nature, she naturally chose the second option.

Ning Zhuo directly refused her.

Though the second option was quick, it had significant side effects.

Zhang Zhongyi frankly stated: he had a unique advantage in herbal medicine preparation, due to his cultivation of the Hundred Herbs Harmonization Technique. When it came to acupuncture, he could not ensure the quality throughout the treatment, and being an older person, mistakes were possible.

Eventually, Ning Zhuo and Zhang Zhongyi settled on the first treatment method.

Following that, they encountered difficulties.

Ning Zhuo practiced the first spell continuously, failing to reach Zhang Zhongyi’s standards for a long time.

Sun Lingtong chuckled, “Little Zhuo, although your realm is profound, you spend too little time each day practicing spells. Even though you can conceive brilliant spells, portraying them yourself is like ‘aiming high but hitting low,’ unable to achieve precise control.”

Zhang Zhongyi then lamented, “Young friend Ning Zhuo, a prodigy like you should be heavily protected and focus on training your skills within the family. Yet, the Ning Family let you travel around extensively, that’s too bold.”
