From a slave to the Great Qian Martial Saint

"How did you get yourself into this state?"

Inside the medicine hut, Mu Yunsheng took Chen Shi's pulse and couldn't help but frown.

"It's a rather complicated story."

Chen Shi looked troubled and asked with some concern.

"Can it be cured?"

"But it's difficult."

Mu Yunsheng withdrew his hand, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke again.

"The essence of these strange beasts is completely intertwined with your life force. Even if I have the means to peel away the layers, I cannot remove them all. If I were to forcibly remove them, I would be killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of my own. At best, it would damage your foundation; at worst, it would endanger your life."

"You have other ideas, right?"

Chen Shi looked at Mu Yunsheng and tentatively asked a question.

Mu Yunsheng said it was difficult, but he didn't say directly that it was untreatable!

"There is indeed a conservative method: combining herbal medicine with acupuncture. Although it cannot expel these essences and blood, it can try to allow you to absorb them on your own. If you can absorb them, it will naturally have no effect on you."

Mu Yunsheng paused slightly, her brows furrowing again.

"But there are still two problems."

"What's the problem!"

Chen Shi quickly asked another question, his face showing excitement.

As long as it can be cured!

Aside from finding the array diagram and negotiating with the Chilong again, asking Mu Yunsheng for treatment is Chen Shi's only option at present.

After all, this can be considered a medical condition.

Mu Yunsheng is known as the Little Fairy Doctor, and her medical skills are superb.

Of course, Chen Shi had no confidence before he came; he was just trying his luck.

Now that Mu Yunsheng says he can cure it, how could he not be happy?

As for the problem, it's solved!

"First, since it's a conservative method, it might not work. Second, even if you want to try it, we're still missing two medicinal ingredients."

"What medicine are you missing? I'll send someone to buy it!"

Chen Shi did not hesitate at all and immediately spoke.

Even if there's only a 10% chance, he'll give it a try!

As for the lack of medicinal materials, this was within his capabilities as the person in charge of purchasing medicinal materials for the Marquis of Jing'an's residence.

"You wouldn't recognize the name, and it's not available in ordinary pharmacies."

"Hmm? Where do we get that?"

Chen Shi frowned and asked another question.

Since Mu Yunsheng said so, he should know where to find these two medicinal herbs.

In fact, Mu Yunsheng not only possesses superb medical skills, but also has an extremely clear understanding of the sources of various medicines.

The Blood-Gel Crow used for his previous training was something Mu Yunsheng had instructed him to use, which is how Chen Shi learned that the Wolf Poison Gang possessed it.

Mu Yunsheng got up and walked to the medicine cabinet. He opened a few drawers, examined a few medicinal herbs, and said two words indifferently.

"Ghost Market".

"What place is that?"

Chen Shi frowned; the name didn't sound like a kind place.

Then his gaze turned deep again. No matter where it was, in order to completely solve the problem of beastification, he was willing to venture into even the most dangerous places.

"Don't be too nervous. It's just a bunch of shady characters who run a place that deals in shady stuff. The reason they gave it that name is just to scare people."

Mu Yunsheng explained for a moment, then continued.

"But the ghost market only opens twice a month, on the third and seventeenth of the lunar month. It's already open this month, so we'll have to wait until next month."

"Then let's do it on the third day of next month!"

"it is good."

Mu Yunsheng agreed without saying anything more.

After examining the patient, Mu Yunsheng didn't have any work to do for the time being, so as usual, Chen Shi went to the open space in front to cultivate.

Regardless of whether Mu Yunsheng can cure him, the most urgent task at present is the selection of the chief steward.

Although there is not much time left, no matter how hard Chen Shi practices, he cannot make much progress.

But practicing is better than not practicing!

He took out a Hehuan Pill and swallowed it. Once the medicine took effect, he continued to practice the Double Kill of the Claw and Scorpion.

After a full hour and a half, Chen Shi could no longer hold on. With a roar, he used silver needles to release the internal heat from his body.

"call!"

He was panting heavily, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

It must be said that although the Hehuan Pill can further mobilize his blood and qi, it also puts a much greater burden on his body.

I had barely caught my breath when I felt a burning hunger in my stomach.

The aroma of food wafted over; it was already noon, and Mu Yunsheng happened to bring over the food.

Chen Shi ate enough for several people, and although his stomach was full, he still felt unsatisfied.

"I ate this."

Mu Yunsheng took out a pill and handed it to Chen Shi.

Chen Shi took it, glanced at it, and swallowed it without asking any questions.

The pill went down, and my stomach felt instantly filled.

Chen Shi breathed a satisfied sigh of relief, then looked at Mu Yunsheng with surprise.

"What did you just give me to eat?"

"You dare to eat it without knowing what it is."

"I have nothing to worry about since it's given to me by you."

"I really don't know if you're smart or stupid."

Mu Yunsheng looked at Chen Shi and explained.

"That was a Nourishing Pill, specially made for martial artists of the sixth rank and above to replenish their nutrition. Although you have not yet reached the sixth rank, you have already condensed your divine body, and ordinary food alone is no longer sufficient to meet the needs of your body after cultivation."

"So that's how it is."

Chen Shi nodded, suddenly realizing what was going on.

No wonder he still felt unsatisfied after finishing his meal; it turns out it was because of his divine body, which increased his physical needs.

"Do you have any more Yangrong Pills? Give me some more."

"There's plenty of medicine in the medicine box; pack it yourself when you leave."

"become."

Chen Shi smiled and nodded, not standing on ceremony with Mu Yunsheng.

Together with Mu Yunsheng, Chen Shi put away the bowls and chopsticks and went to the open space to continue his cultivation.

Instead of rushing to practice the double kill of the scorpion, they practiced the Elephant King Stance.

According to Zhe Liu, only by continuously refining this martial art and pushing it to the Xuan level can one condense the true divine body corresponding to the Divine Power Embryo!

Since then, Chen Shi has made time to cultivate every day. Although his progress is slow, he has not slackened in the slightest.

After practicing the Elephant King Stance for an hour, I continued to practice the Double Kill of the Claw and Scorpion for the remaining time.

Before we knew it, it was already late.

Chen Shi took some Yangrong Pills and bid farewell to Mu Yunsheng.

I took a look around the duty room, but nothing came of it, so I went straight home.

Cui Nong had prepared the meal and was waiting for him.

After changing clothes, servants helped him wipe his face and hands, and he sat down to eat.

Just like at noon, although he ate a lot, he was still not satisfied. After all, he had been cultivating all afternoon and had also consumed a lot of energy. He took a Nourishing Pill and then he felt better.

After having a cup of tea and chatting with Cui Nong to aid digestion, I continued practicing my martial arts.

He didn't go inside to rest until half past midnight.

In bed, Cui Nong lay there, not yet asleep. Seeing Chen Shi come in, she moved aside, offering him the warm spot.

Although Chen Shi was not afraid of the cold, the warm and cozy quilt made him feel incredibly cozy.

"Don't let him get cold."

With a soft sigh, he gently pulled Cui Nong into his arms.

Inside the quilt, Cui Nong wore only a thin veil, her exquisite and shapely body delicate and warm.

……

After midnight, Cui Nong fell into a deep sleep, and Chen Shi got out of bed.

He sat cross-legged beside her, meditating and entering a state of tranquility instead of sleeping.

And so the night passed.

As dawn was breaking, Chen Shi suddenly opened his eyes.

Upon introspection, one can already glimpse the outline of one's own soul.

"Could this be the soul-stabilizing technique mentioned in the pamphlet?"

A slight smile crept onto his lips; nourished night after night, his soul had finally made a leap forward.
