Chapter 597: Healing Art (2)

Lu Sheng was still pondering how he should go about asking Tu Jin to teach him the healing art .

He had to establish himself in Libra City as soon as possible . To continue Arriving in the Other Worlds, he needed a vast stock of energy crystals as backup . At the same time, he needed a safe and secret fixed base of operations for his formation . All these required a huge amount of resources and money . When he was back in the Prime Devil Sect, all he had was only enough for him alone .

The immense Prime Devil Sect had practically monopolized a fifth of the entire Nine Bright Province’s economy . Even then, it was barely enough to support his Arrivals .

Now, he was all alone and poor . Although he had some resources and money with him, it was far from enough for him to set up for another Arrival .

He had to earn money fast .

While Lu Sheng was processing these thoughts in his mind, Tu Jin, who was in front of him, suddenly spoke up . “Lu Yue, do you know how to do the Liberal Fortune Hand Sign?”

“It’s a simple set of hand signs . I’ve seen them, there are only 136 of them in total . Although I haven’t mastered them yet, I should be able to put them to some use after practicing for an hour or so,” Lu Sheng replied with a nod .

“Only? 136?!” Beside him, De Yun’s lips were trembling . An hour… Even he would only be able to manage 16 hand signs, let alone 136…

Tu Jin felt extremely satisfied . He nodded . “Well then… From this day on, you’ll be involved in small-scale organ-transplantation surgeries with me . ”

He did not mention any passing down of knowledge, but his intentions were very clear already . The transplant surgery had only been a thing that his daughter and two disciples, who were actually learning the art, could see . It was a core technique .

Now, he was allowing Lu Sheng to observe it as well . It was clear that he was intending to teach Lu Sheng something, albeit in a different manner .

“Alright!” Lu Sheng immediately knew what he implied . He agreed with a smile .

Tu Jin glanced at him . He saw that Lu Sheng was looking back at him . The two of them smiled with tacit agreement .

The next day, Tu Jin had indeed made De Yun go on an errand, and called Lu Sheng into the operating room with him .

The dark operating room was slightly lit by the faint golden beams of the morning sun, which shone into the room through the wooden windows at an acute angle .

“Swoosh . ”

Tu Jin flattened a white scroll before Lu Sheng .

“Young man, now, a good choice is laid before you . ”

Lu Sheng had barely sat down after he entered the room when he saw the flattened paper .

He raised his head to glance at Tu Jin . Then, he looked at the content on the paper . The writings were made up of ritualistic runes that resembled Devine Veins .

“Contract . Tu Jin shall aid Lu Yue in applying for an identity jade certificate and semi-permanent residence rights . Lu Yue must master all Tu Style Healing Arts and find a successor as well . Main witness: Libra City . ”

“Sign this . ” Tu Jin smiled and pointed at the section on the lower-right corner . “It doesn’t matter even if you can’t read it . Just place a hand print . ”

Lu Sheng found this peculiar .

Although this was just what he wanted, there was something about this situation that rubbed him the wrong way…

He said nothing . He merely took the paper and scrutinized it .

“Although I’m not exactly literate, I trust in your personality, mister Tu Jin,” he responded with apparent conviction . He swiftly pressed his finger down on the paper .

He did not dye his finger with any colors before this, but when he pressed his finger on the paper, a black fingerprint instantly appeared .

The contract paper instantly burned up . It turned into black ash in the air in the blink of an eye and disappeared .

“Alright . Now, you’re officially a member of my Tu Style Healing Art . ” Tu Jin’s attitude clearly warmed up .

“So, should I address you as teacher?” Lu Sheng changed his form of address on his own .

Tu Jin immediately broke into laughter .

Lu Sheng said nothing . He merely displayed a look of anticipation on his face .

He had many teachers throughout this life of his, from the family’s military drill master who’d taught him the basic fist techniques to the Prime Devil Sect’s Liu Shanzi .

A teacher’s job was to preach doctrines, impart knowledge, and resolve the doubts of the student . Although his teachers’ might not be as powerful as he was, Lu Sheng always maintained a certain level of respect for the individuals who taught him sincerely .

Tu Jin did not notice the subtle change in Lu Sheng’s attitude .

Then, in this small room, he started teaching Lu Sheng Tu Style Healing Art’s basic technique, Spirit Prompt .

In the operating room, Tu Jin spread his fingers . Countless fine white threads slowly seeped out from the gaps between his fingers .

These threads seemed to be flowing as they gave off a gentle yet tough impression . It was as if they could melt and become hard at any time .

“The essence of Spirit Prompt is to promote the production of spirit-prompting threads that are strong enough . ” Tu Jin wore a proud smile, which was a rare sight . “Also, there’s no way to produce spirit-prompting threads on your own . Someone must plant the seeds in you beforehand . ”

“Seed?” Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes .

“This . ” Tu Jin pointed, and a white thread immediately shot toward Lu Sheng’s palm .

Lu Sheng resisted his reflex to launch a counterattack, and allowed the white thread to enter his palm and disappear .

He quickly felt an additional, unique energy that seemed like a strand of hair in his arm’s meridians .

“Listen carefully . You must remember the basic formula that I’m going to teach you now . If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask your Senior Apprentice Brother De Yun . Although he’s not as bright as you are, he’s spent more years working on this than you did, and he’s been learning this for quite some time now . ” Tu Jin put on the airs of a teacher and instructed Lu Sheng .

“Understood . ” Lu Sheng nodded solemnly .

The duo continued their session; the teacher taught, while the student learned . The two of them had exceptional cooperation . The basic Spirit Prompt formula, which was slightly less than a thousand words, was quickly memorized by Lu Sheng .

“Remember, the first spirit-prompting thread is black . You’ll have to temper and purge it of its impurities . Then, it will be black-spotted, gray, white, and finally transparent,” Tu Jin reminded him .

“There are five stages to the basic formula . Your teacher has cultivated hard for many years, and is only at the fourth stage of the white thread . Fortunately, they were strong and numerous enough . ”

After giving his instructions, he allowed Lu Sheng to practice .

The first practice session of the basics was very important .

Lu Sheng returned to his own room, feeling delighted . Tu Jin gave him a personal room in the wooden hut’s courtyard .

This was his reward for processing the medicinal herbs as his assistant .

When he returned to his room, he saw De Yun standing in front of the pharmacy . De Yun smiled at him warmly and gave him a big thumbs-up .

Lu Sheng returned the gesture with a faint smile .

He closed the door and scanned his surroundings with his spirit . He quickly confirmed that there were no spying arts in the vicinity .

Lu Sheng pulled a chair and sat down . He was thinking if he should rank up to the highest tier as quickly as possible .

However, he hesitated . In the end, he decided to do it himself . He would stick to his original plan . Unless it was absolutely necessary, he would accumulate his Mental Energy and use it for the crucial breakthroughs only .

He calmed himself down on the spot . Then, he started to carefully circulate the spirit-prompting threads according to the steps laid out in the Spirit Prompt formula .

However, he quickly noticed that the spirit-prompting threads grew and solidified slowly by feeding on his own vigor . He decided to convert his Yang Essence into a large batch of vigor .

In no time, the spirit-prompting threads darkened . Its number slowly multiplied from the initial single thread .

More than two hours later, there were already 100 spirit-prompting threads in Lu Sheng’s body .

‘That was still too quick, but this skill formula is compatible with me . There’s nothing to hide here . ’

Next, Tu Jin started to seriously impart some techniques and methods regarding the spirit-prompting thread to Lu Sheng .

The spirit-prompting thread had the ability to promote the growth of cells . It could hasten the healing of wounds, replenish a person’s blood and essence, and could even be detached from the practitioner and inserted into another person’s body to replenish the person’s vigor .

The spirit-prompting thread could dissolve automatically and turn into pure blood and essence . This specialty was the greatest advantage for it to be used in surgery .

The shortcoming was that it was difficult to cultivate, and it was very selfless…

When Tu Jin learned that Lu Sheng had cultivated several hundred spirit-prompting threads in one go, he was not shocked . It was natural for a healthy and energetic person to cultivate many threads in one go .

“Tell me when you’ve raised the strength and color by one rank” was Tu Jin’s only comment . Then, he started showing Lu Sheng the diagrams of plant structures .

Lu Sheng had initially thought that he was quite accomplished in medical science already . However, compared to Tu Jin, he noticed with surprise that the breadth this person’s knowledge struck fear in anyone who knew about it .

He was well-informed about various organisms, from the microorganisms to the colossal, heavenly beings . He was even an expert in many of them .

On the subject of the dissection and understanding of the human body, living beings, and even spirit force fields, Tu Jin was basically a grandmaster .

However, Tu Jin’s explanation quickly made Lu Sheng understand how an ordinary old man like him reached such heights .

Everything was because of the main city .

By passing the main city’s professional recognition examination, he had the authority to enter the main city’s great library and consult various tomes for information . He could even spend some contribution points to simulate his surgeries .

The main city contained a vast depository of information on the countless planets in the various stellar zones .

The knowledge Tu Jin had was only equivalent to one hair from nine oxen . However, Tu Jin had practically spent all his savings just to increase his knowledge and improve himself .

The result was that Tu Jin could not set aside enough money for his daughter’s dowry even at his age . This was something that he had always regretted .

When Lu Sheng understood this, he put more heart into his lessons .

Time passed . A month went by in the blink of an eye .

Before they knew it, Tu Jin had basically taught Lu Sheng everything about the first chunk of the Tu Style Healing Art, Spirit Prompt .

What he needed after this was to work hard in cultivating the spirit-prompting threads . Then, it would be time for him to gain practical experiences in writing prescriptions, surgeries, and treating patients . All these required actual cases for him to gain experience .

Deep within a yellowing verdant and lush forest .

Lu Sheng was strolling among the trees as he pondered a difficult case that he encountered recently .

Before he knew it, he had surpassed De Yun . He was now at a level where he could prescribe medication and treat ailments when Tu Jin was not around .

The medical knowledge he obtained from Tu Jin aided him greatly in drawing parallels in his own cultivation base and physical training .

Lu Sheng had faintly felt his Eight-Headed Devil Art’s main body, which had shown no movements for a long time now, showing some lax signs of improvement now .

‘It’s been two months already…” Lu Sheng suddenly snapped back to the present . “How long has it been since I’ve been able to focus on learning one thing in peace…’

Unfortunately, he was in no position to revel in such blissful times .

“I think I’ve gained all I can from Tu Jin . The only thing left is for me to learn the second big chunk and secret skill of the Tu Style Healing Art . Looks like there’s no need to intentionally suppress the improvement in my Spirit Prompt anymore,” Lu Sheng muttered to himself .

When he considered that his clansmen were still on the Yellow Springs Planet, there was no way that he could stay here for too long .

As for how he would establish himself here and achieve swift progress, he had some plans of his own already .

‘There are two requirements to improve Spirit Prompt . The first is to have a sufficient supply of blood and essence . The second is to have a good control over precision . ’

Lu Sheng suddenly stopped in his tracks and closed his eyes .

“Deep Blue . ”

The familiar light blue interface popped up before him .
