Chapter 495: Chapter 497: Ice and Fire Twin Dragons

Master Guangde nodded, "We do need to apply the silver needles, but the process is lengthy, requiring you to be in this water during the procedure."

Chu Ge and Huo Tianqian exchanged glances, as if making a significant decision, then they began to undress.

After undressing, Chu Ge jumped in first, followed closely by Huo Tianqian.

However, Chu Ge jumped into the sulfur water while Huo Tianqian jumped into the Snow Mountain Spring Water, the icy chill instantly stimulating his skin, causing Huo Tianqian to shiver unexpectantly and stand there, hardly daring to move.

Master Guangde pointed to the two extremes and said, "The two of you need to soak half in the sulfur water and half in the Snow Mountain Spring Water for it to be effective."

Following his instruction, Chu Ge and Huo Tianqian adjusted their positions and began to sit cross-legged in the water, which just reached their necks. Huo Tianqian, somewhat puzzled asked, "How will you manage to apply the needles to us in this situation? Is it convenient?"

Master Guangde nodded, "It is convenient because the needles will be applied to your shoulders and heads, not your bodies. As external air flows in, toxins within your body will definitely create a counter flow. The purpose of the Tai Chi Eight Diagrams is to reverse this flow, allowing it to be expelled through the silver needles on your shoulders."

Chu Ge slightly nodded, then settled into meditation, slowly closing his eyes.

Seeing this, Huo Tianqian also closed his eyes.

Master Guangde rolled up his sleeves, took out a set of silver needles from his bosom, and began the treatment.

With each needle insertion, a peculiar sensation coursed through their bodies. Chu Ge knew that Master Guangde was channeling his True Qi into them through the needles. When the two airflows collided, it could easily cause a chaotic disturbance potentially harming their internal organs.

Master Guangde infused his True Qi to protect their internal organs from harm.

After finishing applying the needles to both of them, Master Guangde walked to one side, sat down with legs crossed, and began meditating.

Initially, apart from feeling one side of their bodies cold and the other hot, they felt nothing else.

However, slowly, they began sensing subtle changes within their bodies.

Chu Ge distinctly felt an air current quietly condensing inside him, and he could even feel something flowing through his meridians, a sense of pain emerging intermittently like needle stabs.

Huo Tianqian felt it too, furrowing his brows slightly, although he could still tolerate the pain.

One hour passed.

If they opened their eyes, they would see black vapor starting to emerge from the silver needles inserted into each other’s bodies, barely noticeable unless paid close attention.

For Huo Tianqian, sitting cross-legged for an hour was indeed a torment. Soon his legs started to numb. He wanted to move but worried that any movement might displace the needles.

Every now and then, Master Guangde glanced at them, and noticing Huo Tianqian’s toes constantly moving, he smiled helplessly and said, "Master Huo can move your lower body slightly, just make sure not to disturb the upper body or the needles. Moving a little is alright."

Hearing this, Huo Tianqian felt as though he had been redeemed, slowly stretching his legs and gently pinching his calves, somewhat sighing, "Really, getting older. Sitting for so long, my legs can hardly take it."

Back when he was skilled in Ancient Martial Arts, no matter how long he sat for, his body remained unaffected. But now, just after an hour of sitting, his legs had begun to grow numb.

His body was too fragile, which only intensified his desire to regain his martial arts skills.

Compared to Huo Tianqian, Chu Ge was more composed. Since his childhood, his master had trained him to meditate daily for several hours, so he still retained that stability.

His body, soaked in the Snow Mountain Spring Water, had become thoroughly chilled. He moved his fingers, completely numb, unable to feel them anymore.

Two hours later, Chu Ge could distinctly feel changes happening in his body. The silver needles embedded in their skins began to exude wisps of black vapor, gradually turning dense.

Master Guangde narrowed his eyes slightly, taking a closer look, "This is better than expected, perhaps it won’t take ten hours to expel all the toxins from the body."

Once there was no more black vapor rising from the silver needles, it would indicate that the toxins had been expelled from the body.

Chu Ge furrowed his brows tightly, feeling as if two dragons, one ice and one fire, had formed within him. They rampaged on either side of his body, and the toxins lurking inside him, sensing foreign invaders, quickly condensed into countless black snakes, relentlessly spreading and colliding within his bloodstream.

Wherever the ice and fire dragons passed, the black snakes were dispersed and transformed into black vapor, seemingly attracted by something, and the vapor began to flow upwards towards the top of his head.

The ice and fire dragons continued to clash within Chu Ge’s body, treating it like their own territory, moving freely, rampantly.

By now, the toxins lingering in Chu Ge’s bloodstream had been cleared, but this still wasn’t enough to break through the barrier.

The crucial place was at the Dantian; the toxins, sensing danger, had completely condensed into a spherical mass, continually growing larger.

Pain shot through Chu Ge’s Dantian, instinctively causing him to furrow his brow. If yesterday’s pain was Level 8, then the pain coming from his Dantian now was Level 12.

Chu Ge could feel something growing non-stop at his Dantian, almost as if it was going to burst.

Now, three hours had passed.

Chu Ge had endured to his limits. His hands rested on his knees, feeling the clash of two forces at his Dantian, as painful as being cut by knives.

Yet, he still clenched his teeth, not allowing himself to make a sound.

Huo Tianqian also felt this intense pain, but he occasionally let out a pained howl.

Master Guangde hadn’t expected them to reach the climax so quickly. Watching the black vapor constantly rising from the silver needles, it was clear that the toxins were being expelled continuously.

If they could endure another half an hour, the process would be complete.

Compared to Huo Tianqian, a Postnatal Martial Artist, the True Qi originally sealed in his Dantian wasn’t very pure because this thorough detoxification required removing all impurities, so his pain was even more intense than that of Chu Ge.

Chu Ge, on the other hand, had always valued the purity and richness of his True Qi, so a significant power was gestating within his Dantian.

This power was already countering the toxins. Feeling the roar and impact of the external ice and fire dragons, they too began to fiercely resist.
