"You must know that from ancient times to the present, no one has succeeded in cultivating two External Refining Breathing Techniques."
Hua Tuo looked at Ding Ling with a peculiar expression:
"Youâve broken records! Surpassed the Saints, youâve become a pioneer of the new era! Incredible, absolutely incredible!"
He did not shy away from mentioning the Saints, directly stating that Ding Ling might become a mythical figure like the Yellow Emperor, Chiyou, or Confucius!
"The future holds much promise, endless possibilities."
Hua Tuo was very pleased and happy:
"To meet an era-opening figure like you, truly, fate has brought us together."
"In that case, may I learn your other martial arts?"
Ding Ling looked at Hua Tuo with great anticipation.
"..."
Hua Tuo was momentarily speechless, then said:
"Alright. Anyway, Iâve taught you Five Animals Qigong and Ascending Skill. Teaching you Breathing Technique doesnât matter."
He sighed:
"I am getting old, and the world is in chaos; I could die in the flames of war at any time. Iâve always regretted not finding a suitable heir. Meeting you two is really a surprise."
He expressed his joy without reservation:
"Very well. Iâll just teach you all. Just hope that in the future, you find suitable disciples to pass on my Martial Arts Heart Method and others, so they donât become lost."
Hua Tuo could travel alone across the Jiuzhou Land, often venturing into deep forests filled with wolves, tigers, and leopards to collect herbs.
He understands body techniques.
He knows martial arts.
It seems not beyond understanding.
But he also knows Breathing Techniques, especially the supreme âMedicine King Breathing Technique.â
Ding Ling was surprised.
But at this moment, it was not appropriate to ask more, just listened carefully.
After one session.
A book formed on the libraryâs shelf, appearing unstable and illusory.
It was the Medicine King Breathing Technique.
Besides the illusory Medicine King Breathing Technique, there were also the illusory Warriorâs Breathing Method and Flying Bear Breathing Technique.
Ding Ling pondered:
"It seems my bodyâs condition hasnât reached the level to withstand three External Refining Breathing Techniques. Otherwise, I could instantly reach full level."
If the body canât bear it and insists on doing it, it might lead to an explosion and death.
From ancient times to the present.
How many Saints, heroes, brave men?
None had succeeded in cultivating two External Refining Breathing Techniques; Ding Ling succeeded with cheats and fully mastered them. He broke historical records.
Want to cultivate another?
Ding Ling estimated he might need to break through another barrier or bottleneck?
What the truth is remains unknown.
"Remember?"
Hua Tuo asked.
Ding Ling nodded.
Hua Tuo asked again if he had learned it?
Ding Ling shook his head.
Hua Tuo, however, breathed a sigh of relief:
"If you mastered the third External Refining Breathing Technique, I think even the Saints would rise from the dead! Because this is simply a fantasy. No. To be precise, cultivating two External Refining Breathing Techniques to mastery is already a fantasy. Youâve become the mythic legend of the new era."
He clicked his tongue and praised.
Then introduced himself.
Afterward, he said:
"All that I have learned, besides Breathing Technique, Five Animals Qigong, Ascending Skill, all my focus has been on medical skills. Compared to martial arts, my medical skills are truly formidable."
"Did your medical skills pass down from a Medicine King?"
"I canât say that."
Hua Tuo reflected for a moment and said:
"I indeed received the inheritance of Medicine King Bian Que; I obtained Medicine King Breathing Technique and Inner Scripture from his medical texts. But most of my medical skills still come from family supreme skills. Moreover, Iâve traveled extensively, searched for ancient medical prescriptions, read countless medical books; thatâs how Iâve achieved todayâs medical accomplishments."
The three talked for quite a while.
Ding Ling expressed his desire to learn medicine.
Hua Tuo was puzzled:
"Your talent in Martial Dao is unparalleled! Why give up a watermelon to pick a sesame seed? Developing your Martial Dao has a more promising future than developing Medical Dao."
"I also have talent in Medical Dao."
Ding Lingâs full-level acting naturally activated, confident and straightforward, completely calm:
"I can definitely become a Medical God of the era!"
"..."
Zhao Yun was speechless. Ding Ling could act anytime and anywhere; the feeling was very subtle.
After spending a long time with Ding Ling.
Zhao Yun naturally knew what character Ding Ling was and what he usually behaved like.
Now this appearance, no need to think, he knew it was an act!
But this act was so natural.
A genius!
Even the acting was so lifelike!
Zhao Yun felt inferior.
If Ding Ling were serious and earnest, Zhao Yun wouldnât dare to confirm Ding Ling was acting; he would still think Ding Ling had thick skin or something.
But with this confident and spirited look.
Isnât it obvious heâs acting?
Ding Ling usually isnât like this!
"This..."
Hua Tuo wasnât familiar with Ding Ling, but seeing Ding Ling exude strong confidence from within, he couldnât help but be moved, stroked his beard and hesitated for a while, then said:
"Itâs not impossible to pass on you my familyâs supreme skills. Unless you can prove your talent in Medical Dao. Besides helping me with one thing."
"Feel free to say, senior. How do I prove it? And how to help?"
"Proving is simple."
Hua Tuo said:
"I can teach you Bian Queâs Pulse Diagnosis Technique now. Then teach you Bian Queâs Inner Scripture technique; once you master these two, treating internal ailments should pose no problem."
Ding Ling was overjoyed and thanked him.
Itâs said Hua Tuo is merely a surgical master.
Now it seems somewhat false.
To become a generationâs Divine Doctor, how could Hua Tuo be mediocre?!
Not saying heâs omnipotent, but definitely adept in internal medicine!
Perhaps his inner medicine supreme skills all became lost, leading to the misconception heâs just a surgical master.
However, one undeniable fact is that Hua Tuo is definitely proficient in surgery!
"Youâre welcome."
Hua Tuo smiled:
"If you truly have great talent in Medical Dao, gaining an associate, I couldnât wish for more."
He sighed:
"There are too few true Divine Doctors on the Jiuzhou Land."
Hanging the gall and curing the world, miraculous hands and returning spring with a heart full of kindness.
This describes people like Hua Tuo.
Ding Ling greatly admired people like this.
But he could never become such a person because he couldnât be completely selfless, wholeheartedly for the people.
"Listen carefully. This is the Heart Technique, Mantra of the Inner Scripture..."
Hua Tuo began to meticulously analyze and explain to Ding Ling.
Ding Ling focused his attention.
After one session.
Hua Tuo stopped, somewhat expectantly looked at Ding Ling.
He believed Ding Ling wouldnât be able to learn the Inner Scripture in one go.
Because the Medical Dao is different from Martial Dao! It is typically easy to learn but hard to master.
Of course, even easy to learn is for geniuses. For ordinary people, the difficulty of Inner Scripture isnât low.
Ding Ling slightly closed his eyes.
A book formed on the shelf:
"Inner Scripture"
In an instant.
[Inner Scripture Full Level]
[Charisma +0.3]
Various related essences, truths, esoteric truths of Inner Scripture surged and roared in the Sea of Consciousness.
Then quickly transformed into an instinct, rushing into every corner of Ding Lingâs body.
In just a moment.
Ding Ling completely penetrated the Inner Scripture.
Acknowledged all the secrets of the Inner Scripture.
