Investigating the Injuries, Two Methods
Led by Jia Xingtian, Xiao Ming and his group quickly arrived at the mountains and forests behind the Imperial City. 69🅂🄷🅄🅇.🄲🄾🄼
After passing through the bamboo forest behind the mountain, a huge lake appeared before Xiao Ming and his companions.
Upon reaching their destination, Jia Xingtian, who was walking at the front, turned around and smiled at Xiao Ming, saying, "Hehe, Master Xiao Ming, we've arrived. We'll need your help shortly."
"Elder Jia, you're too kind." Xiao Ming waved his hand with a faint smile, his gaze sweeping over the vast lake.
Here, he could faintly sense a powerful Aura hidden in the deep bottom of the lake, which he figured must be the Dark Sea Flood Dragon.
"Huh, there's a big snake in this lake, and it seems pretty strong..." As Xiao Ming sensed it, Zi Yan beside him suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
Hearing Zi Yan speak, Xiao Ming, who was standing to the side, was not surprised by Zi Yan's reaction.
Zi Yan's true form is the Ancient Void Dragon, so it's not too surprising that she can sense the Dark Sea Flood Dragon hidden in the lake. It would be strange if she couldn't sense it at all.
Unlike Xiao Ming, who knew Zi Yan's true form, Jia Xingtian and Yaoye were both startled upon hearing this, and then looked at the exquisitely beautiful little girl with surprised expressions.
Sensing the Aura hidden within such a deep lake is already quite difficult, so how could they not be surprised that this seemingly adorable little girl could actually describe the shape of what was hidden there?
Before they could investigate further, Xiao Ming said, "Elder Jia, summon that Dark Sea Flood Dragon..."
Upon hearing this, Jia Xingtian quickly nodded, and in a flash, he appeared on the lake. His feet touched the water's surface, and then he plunged his hands into the water, unleashing a surge of powerful Dou Qi...
As the Dou Qi surged in, the calm lake surface instantly seemed to boil, bubbling with countless bubbles.
As the lake surface boiled, Xiao Ming on the shore could clearly feel a powerful Aura gradually surging up from the bottom of the lake.
"Bang!"
Just as the lake surface was boiling more and more, suddenly, a huge column of water shot up from the lake, eventually turning into a shower of water droplets that fell down.
Once the water droplets had subsided, a colossal beast, the size of half a lake, appeared before Xiao Ming's eyes. This Magical Beast was none other than the Dark Sea Flood Dragon.
It opened its enormous maw, and a deafening roar erupted from its mouth, "Old Man Jia, you called me out so soon, is it because my matter has been settled?"
Standing on the lake, Jia Xingtian looked up at the Jia Xingtian Dark Sea Flood Dragon and smiled, saying, "Old man, I've already invited Master Xiao Ming over. He said he'd like to examine your injuries first. He's right there; why don't you go thank him?"
As he spoke, Jia Xingtian gestured towards the shore, and the Dark Sea Flood Dragon followed their gaze and saw Xiao Ming standing on the shore.
"Boy, you're that Grade Six Alchemist?"
The Dark Sea Flood Dragon was inherently ferocious, and even though Xiao Ming had come to treat its illness, it showed little respect in its words.
However, Xiao Ming knew that most of these Magical Beasts had this kind of personality, so he didn't pay any attention and just nodded.
"I am indeed Grade Six Alchemist. Let's not waste any more time and begin now."
As he spoke, Xiao Ming nodded to Jia Xingtian in the distance, his shoulders trembled, and a pair of fiery red Fire Wings emerged from his back. The Fire Wings vibrated, and he slowly soared into the air, finally appearing above the huge head of the Dark Sea Flood Dragon.
The enormous beastly eyes stared at the tiny figure before it. The water vapor emanating from the Dark Sea Flood Dragon's body suddenly diminished considerably. After a moment, the Dark Sea Flood Dragon suddenly said, "Boy, your Fire Attribute Aura is too strong. You'd better stay away from me!"
Xiao Ming was taken aback upon hearing this, but then he understood.
Gu Dai
This Dark Sea Flood Dragon is a water-attribute Magical Beast, and it is extremely sensitive to Fire Attribute Dou Qi. Since it devoured the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame, the Dou Qi in its body has far surpassed ordinary Fire Attribute Dou Qi, so it's no wonder that it is somewhat resistant to me getting close.
However, if that's the case, his original plan to use his own Dou Qi to probe the body of the Dark Sea Flood Dragon using special methods is no longer feasible.
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Ming said, "I originally planned to use a special method to examine your body, but since you are so resistant to my Dou Qi, I can only use my Soul Power to examine your body directly. Don't resist my Soul Power later, understand?"
When examining someone's body, if the other person resists, he certainly won't be able to detect the deeper injuries. That's why Xiao Ming said that.
"Soul Power? Fine, as long as you don't put that annoying Fire Attribute Dou Qi into my body, I won't resist."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ming nodded, urging his Soul Power to surge from between his brows and penetrate every part of the Dark Sea Flood Dragon's body.
Instantly, every detail of the Dark Sea Flood Dragon's body—its muscles, bones, and the pathways of its Dou Qi —appeared in Xiao Ming's mind.
Those old wounds also appeared in Xiao Ming's mind. Ignoring the superficial wounds on the outside of his body, Xiao Ming only explored the knots in his body.
While Xiao Ming was investigating, the Dark Sea Flood Dragon only sensed an astonishing Soul Power scanning all parts of his body, exposing everything about him to the other's eyes. In accordance with Xiao Ming's previous instructions, it could only endure the discomfort and did not resist.
A moment later, Xiao Ming withdrew his Soul Power after scanning the Dark Sea Flood Dragon's body several times.
Noticing that the discomfort in his body had disappeared, the Dark Sea Flood Dragon hurriedly asked, "How am I feeling? Can it be cured?"
Regarding the problem of the Dark Sea Flood Dragon, Xiao Ming could only say that it was indeed a troublesome old wound that had dragged on for so long without being resolved.
According to his investigation, although the Dark Sea Flood Dragon's body only had some scars on the surface, its internal structure was actually a complete mess.
Its body has several wounds that are difficult to heal inside, and its meridians are also damaged in many places. Its Dou Qi spirit also occasionally stops.
Xiao Ming estimated that with its current condition, it could only last for another three or four years.
Only in recent years Jia Ma Empire been relatively stable, so it has not needed to intervene.
Otherwise, it wouldn't take two or three years, or even just two or three battles, before the Dark Sea Flood Dragon's injuries would flare up, making it impossible for it to participate in battle again.
If you don't take proper care of yourself, there's a risk of dying.
Xiao Ming told the Dark Sea Flood Dragon and Jia Xingtian, who flew to his side, about the results of his investigation.
Upon hearing how serious it was, Jia Xingtian quickly frowned and asked, "Master Xiao Ming, is it still treatable?"
"Yes, that's fine." Xiao Ming answered the question readily.
Seeing Xiao Ming's confident demeanor, Jia Xingtian breathed a sigh of relief. He had been so impressed by Xiao Ming of the severity of the injury that he had almost believed the Dark Sea Flood Dragon was beyond cure. But as long as it was treatable, he didn't care about the extent of the injury.
The Dark Sea Flood Dragon was very familiar with its own body. Seeing that Xiao Ming it still needed treatment, it was overjoyed and quickly asked, "May I ask what method you have to treat me?"
Hearing the sudden change in the Dark Sea Flood Dragon's tone to one of politeness, Xiao Ming smiled and said:
"I know there are several methods, but some are too difficult to implement. I'll just mention the two most feasible ones. The first is a Grade Six Middle Tier pill, the Primordial Bone Shaping Pill, which is particularly effective against injuries to Magical Beast. The other is to use four Grade Six Lower Tier pills, the Vitality Pill. Choose one."
