Chapter 1436: Chapter 1435: Learning Fuxi Nine Needles, Gathering the Strengths of All Schools!

Everyone watched as Lin Dong performed the fully mastered Nine Dragons Divine Needles, even more astonished than just now.

"The Nine Dragons Divine Needles, he has learned them too."

"And he has achieved great accomplishment! What kind of talent in the medicinal field does Chief Lin possess?"

"..."

Even Li Changsheng was stunned, his eyes shining with light as he watched Lin Dong.

He had countless disciples and had seen many with supreme talent in the medicinal field, but none could compare to Lin Dong!

He regarded himself as a peerless genius in the medical field, but compared to Lin Dong, he felt far inferior.

He had scoured ancient books and read extensively, seen countless great abilities in medicine, but throughout history, he found none whose talent surpassed Lin Dong’s.

The path of medicine in this world had reached its apex!

Throughout history, too, it stood as a peak!

Afterward, Lin Dong continued to administer acupuncture.

This time, he chose only a single Silver Needle to use.

This time, he displayed the Qiankun Single Needle.

To master the Qiankun Single Needle, one must grasp the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams.

Lin Dong had long been proficient in these!

The ancient witchcraft he controlled, along with many national arts and spells, all required mastery of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams.

Lin Dong had long committed the transformations of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams to memory.

At the moment, as he administered the acupuncture, he muttered under his breath:

"Qian three connected, Kun six broken, Li in the center empty."

"Kan filled in the center, Zhen facing upwards like a bowl, Gen overturned like a bowl."

"Dui missing above, Xun broken below."

As he murmured the essentials of the Qiankun Single Needle, he continued to administer it.

With each needle placed, the transformations of the Eight Trigrams were visible.

Upon seeing this, Chen Taidou exclaimed with emotion, "This young man’s medicinal talent is truly against heaven. It took me a full eighteen years just to get through the threshold when I learned the Qiankun Single Needle. He observed me do it once, and he has already entered the doorway."

"Such medical talent, even the likes of Bian Que, Hua Tuo, and Zhang Zhongjing would have to bow down in admiration."

His eyes flickered as he contemplated something.

After Lin Dong performed the Qiankun Single Needle, he then proceeded to perform other needle techniques.

Everything he had just practiced on the Acupuncture Bronze Man, Lin Dong replicated and displayed anew.

When Lin Dong ceased administering the needles, one could see that all 354 acupoints on the Acupuncture Bronze Man oozed mercury.

This indicated not a single acupoint of Lin Dong’s was inaccurate.

Of course, this was not what was truly remarkable. What was truly remarkable and shocking to everyone was that Lin Dong achieved this using the strengths of many schools.

It could be seen that the mercury spilling out from the Acupuncture Bronze Man was all in different conditions.

Because every needle technique he employed was different, the conditions of the mercury flowing out were also different.

The Nine Dragons Divine Needles, aggressive in needlework, naturally resulted in more mercury flowing out.

The Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles, fast in needlework, naturally produced only a bit of mercury.

And the Qiankun Single Needle, tricky in needlework, caused the mercury to flow out in twists and turns.

The other needle techniques were also each distinct.

After watching Lin Dong perform these needle techniques, everyone began to say:

"Chief Lin is truly a heaven-sent prodigy!"

"Admirable, admirable, no wonder he could defeat the number one Eastern Medicine practitioner from Kimchi Nation."

"With Chief Lin in our Chinese Medicine, how could we not prosper?"

"..."

Everyone laughed heartily, delighted to see a paragon like Lin Dong emerge in the Chinese Medicine World. Who wouldn’t be happy?

Li Changsheng also laughingly said, "Chief Lin, it seems like you haven’t performed my Fuxi Nine Needles yet."

Lin Dong replied with embarrassment, "Master Li’s Fuxi Nine Needles are too profound, I’ve watched them once and am still in a fog."

"So, I cannot perform them."

Li Changsheng laughingly said, "That’s very normal. The Fuxi Nine Needles took me a full thirty years just to start."

"Chief Lin, if you learn it after just one look, I would really cough up blood."

"However, I can demonstrate it a few more times for you. If more people can learn the Fuxi Nine Needles and prevent the loss of our Dragon Country’s ancient divine needles, it would indeed be a blessing for our Traditional Chinese Medicine!"

With that, he once again approached the Acupuncture Bronze Man, intending to demonstrate it several more times to see if Lin Dong could learn.

Of course, he didn’t harbor much hope.

In his view, even if Lin Dong was extremely gifted, he would need at least half a year to learn.

It’s said that the Fuxi Nine Needles were created by Fuxi himself. Those who learned it quickly also spent ten years mastering it.

As for him, Li Changsheng, already a prodigy in the medical field, it took him thirty years just to make an entry.

That is why he felt that Lin Dong would need at least half a year to learn!

Half a year, in his opinion, was already very optimistic about Lin Dong.

Afterward, Li Changsheng continued to demonstrate the Fuxi Nine Needles to Lin Dong.

At the same time, he explained to Lin Dong:

"To use the Fuxi Nine Needles, you must use nine different silver needles.

The first needle, is the Chan needle. It’s used to reduce Yang Energy.

The second needle, is the Round Needle. It does not harm the muscle and is used to reduce qi in divisions."

The third needle is the Di needle. It focuses on pressing the pulse without sinking, to ensure the flow of qi.

The fourth needle is the Sharp Needle. The blade has three corners to release chronic diseases.

The fifth needle is the Bian Needle. The tip is like a sword edge, to extract large abscesses.

The sixth needle is the Yuanli Needle. The body is slightly larger in the middle, to release violent qi.

The seventh needle is the Filiform Needle. The tip is like a mosquito’s proboscis, calmly and slowly inserting, leaving it in place longer to nurture, and to draw out pain and immobility.

The eighth needle is the Long Needle. Sharp and thin, it can be used to reach distant afflictions.

The ninth needle is the Big Needle. The tip is like a club, with a slightly rounded edge, to release water from the mechanisms.

The Nine Needles represent the great numbers of heaven and earth, starting from one and ending at nine. Therefore, it is said: two follows the law of earth, three follows the law of man, four follows the law of seasons, five follows the law of sound, six follows the law of law, seven follows the law of stars, eight follows the law of wind, nine follows the law of the wilderness."

Lin Dong listened attentively and observed closely, as if he was beginning to understand.

Soon, Li Changsheng had finished demonstrating the Fuxi Nine Needles for the second time.

He asked, "Chief Lin, how is it? Have you gained any insight?"

Lin Dong nodded then shook his head, "It seems I’ve realized something, but I’m still in a fog."

"Haha, that’s normal. I’ll demonstrate five more times. If you still haven’t learned it but still want to, you can acknowledge me as your honorary master. I will guide you."

Everyone: "..."

There was a twitch at the corners of everyone’s mouths; they all knew Li Changsheng loved to take disciples.

But this was Chief Lin, after all. If this old fellow could become the honorary master of Chief Lin, wouldn’t he be too proud?

Lin Dong nodded and said, "Let me take another look."

"Haha, okay." Li Changsheng laughed heartily and then continued to practice.

Soon, he had performed the first demonstration again!

After watching, Lin Dong still hadn’t learned it, but he had understood more than before.

He had grasped something.

After that, Li Changsheng demonstrated once more.

After watching, Lin Dong had touched upon some thresholds. In his mind, he envisioned nine different needles and the Eight Trigrams.

"So, the Fuxi Nine Needles are also related to the Eight Trigrams," Lin Dong thought to himself.

Fuxi created the Eight Trigrams and fashioned these nine needles; it turns out there is a connection between the two.

Li Changsheng continued to practice.

At the moment, Lin Dong suddenly had a flash of light in his eyes and excitedly said,

"I think I’ve grasped it."

Li Changsheng was startled and asked, "Do you want to give it a try?"

He was somewhat incredulous; including the first two times, he had only demonstrated five times.

Learn it in just five demonstrations?

At that moment, Lin Dong took the nine different silver needles from Li Changsheng’s hands with a bit of excitement.

Then, he began to apply the needles...
