"This picture was passed down from my Zhao family ancestors. Our ancestors have said that it contains a supreme secret that can be understood by those with high understanding. It is a pity that each generation of us has not been able to understand even a little bit."
"Originally, with my little girl's talent, she had hope to gain something, but it's a pity that God played a trick on her and she contracted this strange disease."
Zhao Changhe had a bitter expression on his face, looked at Zhao Lingzhu, and continued:
"To be honest, senior, my little girl was told by the pharmacist that she would not live to be eighteen years old. With the thought of treating a dead horse as a living horse, I asked her to look at this picture, but there was no gain. Even if she concentrated even a little, she would have a splitting headache."
"Oh?"
Lu Ming frowned slightly and asked, "She gets a headache just when she looks at this picture, or does it also happen when she does other things?"
Zhao Changhe saw that Lu Ming first paid attention to the cause of the little girl's illness. He felt moved in his heart and quickly replied, "Senior, if you do other things, you will do the same if you think too deeply."
"In that case, let's check your daughter's condition first."
In fact, after hearing that this picture contained a secret skill, Lu Ming's curiosity was no longer so strong. After all, he has a secret skill, so it doesn't matter if he reads it later.
"Thank you, senior."
Zhao Changhe was overjoyed and quickly pulled Zhao Lingzhu in front of him.
"Sorry for bothering you, senior." Zhao Lingzhu saluted.
"It doesn't matter."
Lu Ming waved his hand and asked, "Have any seniors looked at it for you before?"
Zhao Changhe immediately said, "Back to senior, when the little girl's talent was revealed, Long Saber Sect Grand Elder, the largest sect nearby, personally came to accept a disciple. He just learned that the little girl had a strange disease. After an inspection and found nothing, he left helplessly."
"That's right."
Lu Ming nodded, "When seeing a doctor, you should pay attention to what you see, what you hear, what you hear and what you need to know. Although I am not a doctor, I still have to ask first so that I can prescribe the right medicine."
"Senior, please ask."
Zhao Lingzhu said respectfully, although she had given up hope for her condition, the person in front of her was extremely mysterious and powerful, definitely more powerful than Long Saber Sect Grand Elder.
So I am looking forward to it inexplicably.
"Then please tell me about your specific condition, especially symptoms such as headaches after meditating for a long time."
Zhao Lingzhu nodded and quickly explained his illness.
"In other words, whenever you refine your Qi, True Qi will disappear inexplicably in your body. Is it disappearing instead of escaping?"
Lu Ming frowned.
Zhao Lingzhu said with great certainty, "Senior, that's exactly what it is."
"Senior, do you have any questions?" Zhao Changhe asked immediately.
Lu Ming looked at Zhao Lingzhu carefully, until he saw the other party blushing, and then said, "This is surprising. If it does not escape but disappears, it may be absorbed by the physical body."
"So it stands to reason that your physical body should be extremely strong, but now it is so weak."
As a professional body-trainer, he naturally understands the secrets of body-training.
"As for the reason why you have a headache when you meditate, it should be because of this. It is said that the essence is weak and the spirit is weak. If the reason for your physical weakness cannot be found, then I am afraid that you will agree to the sentence and you will die before the age of eighteen."
"Senior, please help me!"
Zhao Changhe was not surprised but happy because he had long accepted the fact that his daughter would die young. Now Lu Ming just heard some symptoms and found the cause, which made him full of hope.
Zhao Lingzhu also regained the look in his eyes.
Lu Ming sighed slightly. He didn't want to expect and disappoint people at the same time, and said, "I can't guarantee that I can find the reason. I will be offended next, and there will inevitably be physical contact."
"Should illnesses be avoided, seniors can do whatever they want."
Zhao Changhe naturally knew what the next so-called physical contact was about, and said quickly.
Zhao Lingzhu also nodded with a slightly red face.
Lu Ming didn't waste any time, and suddenly approached like lightning, pointed on the opponent's shoulder, and then a wave of Spiritual Sense followed the Gang Yuan and entered the opponent's body, traveling through all the limbs and veins in the blink of an eye.
His brows were still furrowed, obviously he found nothing, and he said in a deep voice, "According to the exercises you practice, I will follow your disappeared True Qi to take a look."
Zhao Lingzhu didn't dare to act rashly and allowed the gentle power to swim throughout his body. Now when he heard the sound, he started to use the cultivation technique without hesitation.
Although Zhao Changhe was anxious for a while, he could only wait quietly, not even daring to breathe too heavily for fear of disturbing him.
Soon, as Zhao Lingzhu was running the technique, wisps of Heaven and Earth Origin Energy entered her body, and were then refined and transformed into wisps of True Qi, which flowed into the Dantian along the meridians.
Lu Ming's Spiritual Sense closely follows this wisp of True Qi, and it is found that the closer it is to the Dantian, the thinner the True Qi will become, as if it is being lost while walking on the road.
In fact, it was not the case. It was absorbed by an invisible force. This force was intangible and seemed extremely weak. If it were not for his Spiritual Sense power, he would not have been able to detect it.
And the general Sea Transformation Realm cannot be found.
"What exactly?"
Lu Ming is becoming more and more curious about this power, it seems very simple.
"Senior, do you want to continue?" Zhao Lingzhu suddenly said nervously.
"Go on, I've found out the clues."
Zhao Lingzhu was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly continued to practice his kung fu. Zhao Changhe next to him also looked happy when he heard this.
Finally, with the passage of time, Lu Ming finally understood the characteristics of this power, which is to devour, not only True Qi, but also Zhao Lingzhu's vitality, including Qi and blood.
It's just that this process is extremely slow, which is why it's still alive.
However, he could not find the source of this devouring force, let alone the cause of its occurrence, so the current solution he could think of was to see if he could satisfy this Devouring Power and prevent it from interfering.
"Is it Special Physique?" He stopped helplessly.
"Senior, how are you?" Zhao Changhe asked immediately.
Lu Ming shook his head and told what he found.
"Devouring power?"
Zhao Changhe and Zhao Lingzhu were both stunned, and then the former seemed to think of something and exclaimed, "Could it be related to the ancestor of our Zhao family?"
"The ancestor of your Zhao family?"
Lu Ming is a little curious.
Zhao Changhe hesitated for a moment, seemed to have made some determination, and said:
"To be fair to our seniors, we, the younger generation, no longer know what happened to the ancestor of our Zhao family, but some fragments of it have been passed down."
"It is said that the ancestor was so powerful in the mainland back then that he acted like a monster and frightened all Human Race Demon Race. He relied on a Devouring Power."
"Oh?"
Lu Ming was quite surprised. He didn't expect that a small Lineage in this remote town would have such a glorious history, even if he didn't know whether it was true or not.
Zhao Changhe smiled bitterly, "Actually, I don't know if it's true or not. If the ancestor was really so strong back then, not to mention his unique skills, he should have passed on the next Earth-grade, high stage Cultivation Method. How could he be as depressed as he is now."
"Perhaps it is to protect you. After all, you also said that your ancestor frightened the Human Race Demon Race on the mainland. If he knew about your relationship with him, he would be in trouble."
Lu Ming thought for a while and said.
"It should be like this. This Shinan Diagram is said to have been passed down by the ancestor, but I don't know if it contains a solution to the cause of Lingzhu's physical illness."
Zhao Changhe was a little disappointed at first, but now he was very hopeful, and placed his expectations on Lu Ming. He knelt down again, presented the scroll and said:
"I would also like to ask senior to understand for me, the Zhao family. If we can save Lingzhu, I, the Zhao family, will not hesitate to work hard for my senior."
"It doesn't have to be this way."
Lu Ming helped the person up and said, "I am even more curious about this Shinan Diagram now."
For some reason, he suddenly thought of an incomplete martial art he had obtained from a bandit leader, named [Kunpeng Swallows Stars Technique]. He wondered if there was any connection between this.
"Senior, please take a look at the picture."
Zhao Changhe quickly opened the scroll, revealing a picture.
