Chapter. 2. Relic of The God of Medicine

The sight of the last room that Yuan Liong entered made the hairs on his neck stand on end, his footsteps glued to the spot. In front of Yuan Liong's eyes sat a cross-legged corpse that was intact, not decaying even though it had been through the shifts of time for thousands of years.

Yuan Liong calmed his turbulent heart, he took a few steps forward and then bowed respectfully to the corpse.

“Wise old man! ... I'm sorry, I accidentally came to your place,” said Yuan Lion while still bowing.

Yuan Liong, who was still in a bent position, accidentally read the writing on the floor right at the foot of the corpse.

“Whoever reads this writing, he is my heir …”

The will was very long, completely explaining who the corpse was, along with the contents of the chest in the room that Yuan Liong had entered earlier. 

The owner of this cave is named Kang Kian, during his lifetime he was better known by the nickname, God of Magic Hand Medicine.

Kang Kian is a very great healer, his life is spent only studying medicine and alchemy. For Martial Arts or supernatural powers, he is not too deep.

He practiced cultivation only to facilitate the path of Alchemy. Because never before had a cultivator been able to balance the two at the same time. 

In his golden age, all diseases could be treated by him, and because of this, Kang Kian earned the nickname, God of Profound Medicine.

The most important items in the chest. That is; the ring and the Lightning Hand Medicine God Book. The ring is called the universal ring. The way to open, and store items and objects in the universe ring must use a special inner power. That is the power in the lightning element written in the book.

In reality, all cultivators and cultivators have a universe ring, it's just that the unique and distinctive universe ring with the lightning element is the only one.

Likewise, with the book, this book only contains blank sheets that must use a special way to read it gradually.

Yuan Liong who is respectful and polite gets a blessing, so he knows the secret behind the book and also the ring of the universe. Yes, it could be said that everything that happened in these two days was a blessing behind a disaster.

After paying his last respects, Yuan Liong buried the corpse of the Divine Hand Medicine God. Then he returned to the room, where the three chests were kept. Yuan Liong took the ring, then put it on the ring finger of his left hand, although this ring could not be used yet.

The Divine Hand Medicine God Book, as well as other items, were temporarily left in the chest. All day looking for a way of life filled with new experiences, Yuan Liong forgot that he had not filled his stomach since yesterday.

Inside the abyss, there are fresh fruits, which can be used to fill the stomach. These fresh fruits raised the Yuan Lion's spirit. He returned to the chest room and began to study the book.

In order for the writing on the book to appear, that is by using a drop of blood. Yuan Liong dropped his blood on the early pages of the book.

The contents of the initial sheet explain the Body Tempering Technique. The explanation in the will of the God of Medicine explained that this book consists of three volumes. It's up to you to practice anything in the beginning, there are no specific rules.

The first volume of the Body Tempering Technique, the second volume of the Cultivation Technique, and the third volume of the Alchemy Technique. There is no explanation of the Punch Technique or Weapon Science in the book, as this book previously belonged to the God of Medicine.

According to the book, to be able to refine pills with Alchemy, it required internal power as well as controlling fire with lightning or silver fire elements. The brighter the color of the silver flame, the better the refining success rate.

While the Body Tempering Technique, which must be learned in this book, is to change the composition of bones and blood, then the bones will turn into silver magnetic bones that can absorb lightning, then turn it into internal energy.

For the blood produced, then it is no longer red, but becomes a silver color with a high level of vitality.

Referring to the book's instructions, while sitting cross-legged, Yuan Liong then consumed the pills contained in the jade bottles. When he knew later that the pill with the scent of high vitality was called the Heavenly Silver Pill, Yuan Liong's stomach felt hot. Slowly the small incisions began to spread from the stomach and then continue to move throughout the body.

Yuan Liong's entire body felt like it was being stabbed by a thousand needles. An echoing loud scream resounded throughout the abyss. 

“Aaaarrgghh!” A very long scream was also loud. 

Yuan Liong continued to endure the torments of this Body Tempering practice until finally, the torments began to pass. In a weak state, Yuan Liong fell unconscious.

A week passed, in which every day Yuan Liong received physical torments from his practice. Thanks to his steadfastness and never-fading spirit, he finally managed to wash the blood and also replace the core bone structure.

The next step is to condense the silver blood into a magnetic silver bone. This theory was very easy for Yuan Liong to understand, but very difficult to put into practice.

Time rolled back, this time Yuan Liong spent two months forming and dripping blood into magnetized silver bones. The torment he went through was even more severe than when washing blood, because of his previous experience, Yuan Liong was able to face this torment.

Unhurried, Yuan Liong took advantage of two days to rest while tracing his way out of the abyss of the Lightning Mountain Valley. This boy is indeed intelligent, he has predicted all the possibilities and steps in his life path forward.

He was still only twelve years old, but thanks to his Body Tempering training for more than two months, his posture changed drastically. His posture was more like that of a fourteen-year-old teenager, with small muscles with a solid jaw.

Two dailies go round and round, he can't find a way out. The only way was through the cavernous passages and trees that formed a natural web on the upper cliffs, then crawled up a hundred feet with deep force.

Giving in to conditions, Yuan Liong decided to practice the second volume of the Lightning Hand Medicine God Book. This stage begins with cultivating and absorbing lightning and then awakening the lightning element.

Yuan Liong must enter the large array of silver magnet stones, then receive fierce lightning strikes, then suck this lightning into the body, control it, then create internal energy. The practice of this technique is fiercer than the Body Tempering Technique.

The air from this lightning is accommodated in the three main dantian points, under the belly, in the chest, and in the head. Then flow the pure air of the lightning element from the three main dantians throughout the body through the six hundred meridians. Yuan Liong shuddered at the thought.

With strong determination, as well as fortitude, Yuan Liong began cultivating. Originally, every time a lightning bolt struck, Yuan Liong's skin and flesh were crushed and scorched. But … thanks to the silver bones and blood, his vitality became extremely high. Every time the skin and flesh are charred, it changes and then heals by themselves.

Realizing this, Yuan Liong, while enduring pain, continued to cultivate.

Indeed, in fact, that is the anatomical structure of the human body. The human body stores electrical energy or lightning that is even more than two thousand Volts, but humans do not realize nor do they know how to practice controlling that electric power.

Fortunately, Yuan Liong had this opportunity, only one in a million people had such an advantage, and only one after thousands of years had such a blessing.
