Reshaping the Meridians
Lin Tianchong was extremely serious with every word that he said.
He had seen Chu Xingyun twice.
The first time, Chu Xingyun easily pointed out the hidden injuries on his body and even gave him a technique that allowed him to relieve the pain that had tormented him for decades in just five days.
The second time, Chu Xingyun was reciting the tricks of the Breathing Technique. Every word and point that he said could be said to be incisive and logical, allowing Lin Tianchong to have some understanding.
He really could not imagine that a seventeen-year-old youth actually had such knowledge and experience. Therefore, he made such a suspicion and thought that Chu Xingyun was a person who had been reincarnated through possession.
"Senior Lin, if I really know how to possess someone's body, then why would I find such a weak body? Wouldn't it be easier for me to possess a monstrous genius' body?" Chu Xingyun was stunned for a moment before he said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Lin Tianchong felt that it made sense, but he asked again: "Then why do you know so many cultivation techniques and martial arts? Also, the truth of cultivation that you mentioned just now, where did it come from?"
"The world is vast and full of mysteries and impermanence. The fact that I can have such knowledge and experience is due to my fortuitous encounters. On the other hand, Senior Lin, you have no sect and no master, but you were able to reach the Five Tribulations Nirvana Stage. I'm afraid that you must have had many fortuitous encounters as well." Chu Xingyun changed the topic and looked at Lin Tianchong with a smile.
"It's fine if you don't want to say it, but why do you have to beat around the bush? Even if you are willing to say it, I may not want to hear it." Lin Tianchong snorted and changed the topic: "You have already checked my body just now, so you should tell me your conditions, right?"
"Since Senior Lin is straightforward, then I will be straightforward. My conditions are very simple. I only need Senior Lin to protect me for five years." Chu Xingyun stated his conditions.
"No!" Lin Tianchong didn't even think about it and directly refused, "I, Lin Tianchong, have been famous for so long. How can I be the servant of a junior like you? I'm not willing to accept this condition."
As an expert at the 5th level of the Nirvana Realm, Lin Tianchong's strength was sufficient to establish a sect and become an overlord of a region. Not to mention five years, he wasn't willing to protect Chu Xingyun at all times.
"Senior Lin, you misunderstand."
Chu Xingyun's expression was calm as he said, "I don't want you to become my servant, nor do I want you to protect me at all times. I just want you to be like a guest elder of the clan. When I face danger, you will lend a helping hand. Apart from this, I will not interfere with senior Lin in any way."
Lin Tianchong's eyes narrowed and he was immediately tempted.
After a moment of silence, he opened his mouth and said, "I can accept this condition. However, you must treat me first. If it doesn't work, then everything is in vain."
"Of course," Chu Xingyun replied with a smile and gestured for Lin Tianchong to sit down cross-legged.
He gently stroked his palm and immediately took out a Nine Orifices Celestial Verdant Root. He also sat down cross-legged and faced Lin Tianchong. He began to form a series of mysterious hand seals.
"Condense!" Chu Xingyun's eyes narrowed. The scorching Ten Thousand Beast Fire burst out from his palm and directly enveloped the Nine Orifices Celestial Verdant Root. It began to slowly burn and wisps of green smoke rose.
"Ten Thousand Beast Fire? How do you have such a miraculous item? " Lin Tianchong was stunned. Chu Xingyun didn't answer. He controlled the Ten Thousand Beast Fire with one hand and formed hand seals with the other. He was multitasking and entered a mysterious state.
Hum!
In the air, a wisp of faint green smoke drifted out from the Nine Orifices Celestial Verdant Root. Chu Xingyun waved his hand and grasped the green smoke tightly. He hurriedly said to Lin Tianchong, "Senior Lin, I'll begin to reconstruct your meridians now. Bear with it."
"What? You want to reconstruct your meridians? "
Lin Tianchong was startled. Before he could say anything, he suddenly felt an indescribable force seep into his body. This force was extremely domineering and was like a violent torrent. It rampaged wildly and wanted to completely destroy all the meridians in his body.
"Ah!" Lin Tianchong let out a wail. His entire body trembled violently and his forehead was covered with sweat. He clenched his teeth tightly. It was simply more painful than enduring the tribulation lightning.
A few days later, the Nine Orifices Celestial Verdant Root in Chu Xingyun's hand gradually withered. When the last wisp of green smoke drifted out, it finally turned into ashes and vanished without a trace.
Lin Tianchong collapsed on the ground without moving at all. He glared at Chu Xingyun and said furiously, "Why didn't you tell me in advance? My old life almost died in your hands."
Chu Xingyun spread his hands and said innocently, "The process of reconstructing your meridians can't be delayed for even a moment. I'm doing this for senior Lin's sake. You can try standing up now and see if you still feel the unbearable pain."
"Hmph!"
Lin Tianchong snorted coldly. He took a few deep breaths and slowly stood up.
As he stood up, a look of shock suddenly appeared on his old face. He first waved his arms, then moved his legs. Finally, he bounced a few times. His entire body felt comfortable, without the slightest feeling of pain.
"This is too miraculous. The internal injuries that have troubled me for several decades have actually recovered so quickly." Lin Tianchong no longer had the anger from before. He was abnormally happy. Looking at his hands, he felt as if a lifetime had passed.
"The internal injuries in your meridians are deeply rooted. If you want to completely remove them, you must reconstruct your meridians. However, this is only the initial treatment. The internal injuries still exist in senior Lin's body."
Hearing Chu Xingyun's words, Lin Tianchong felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured over his head. He said resentfully, "This is only the initial treatment?"
"That's right!"
Chu Xingyun nodded and said, "Senior Lin's internal injuries have already damaged your internal organs. If you want to completely remove them, you must undergo a long period of nourishment. The reconstruction of your meridians is only the first step. After this, I will have to treat you every once in a while. There can't be the slightest negligence, or all our previous efforts will be wasted."
"Every once in a while? How long is that?" Lin Tianchong asked again.
"I can't say for sure. In my opinion, it's best if senior Lin stays by my side. This way, I can treat you at all times. That's right, after this treatment, senior Lin's meridians will be reconstructed. You must not forcefully activate your spiritual energy. Otherwise, it's very likely that your meridians will rupture and you'll die from the backlash of your spiritual energy."
Chu Xingyun patted the dust off his sleeves and said casually, "Regarding this, it's actually very easy to deal with. I have the Ten Thousand Beast Fire, which can help senior Lin refine all of your meridians and speed up your recovery. As long as senior Lin asks, I will immediately prepare a side room for you so that you can recuperate in peace."
