Chapitre 15: Chapter 15 First Strike at the Lesion (Please follow, vote for recommendations and Yue tickets!)
Finding Disease is the first realm of Qi Rushing to the Disease, or rather the first stage.
As the name of this realm suggests, it requires finding the "disease" within one's own body.
The method involves using one's own Qi-Blood to circulate through the meridians; encountering any blockages means that a disease focus has been found.
Previously, Wang Sheng's circulation of Qi-Blood had been autonomously ongoing for a month, and during this time the Qi-Blood encountered no blockages, completely eliminating the need for the power of Qi-Blood to strike.
Under the aid of chrysanthemum tea, the Inner Core Skill had already reached "Inner Core Skill: Breakthrough+2 (22%)," the circulation of Qi-Blood power had sped up, and now the progress of Qi Rushing to the Disease had reached "Finding 15.8%," meaning the Qi-Blood power had already passed through 15.8% of Wang Sheng's body.
Having found just one disease focus after traversing such a large area suggests Wang Sheng's physical condition was quite optimistic.
However, unless one achieves a body without leaks, completely and thoroughly transforming oneself, disease focuses will inevitably be found.
During this process, a seemingly healthy person will exhibit an increasing number of illnesses.
The pain and swelling that Wang Sheng now felt were manifestations of the Qi-Blood power finding hidden disease focuses and exposing them.
This was a sign of progression in his own realm, so he did not panic and immediately entered a state of cultivation for his Inner Core Skill, introspecting and wanting to control the Qi-Blood power to break through this disease focus.
"Pain and swelling, these are the diseases of the past, meaning these are injuries the body has sustained before?"
Wang Sheng quickly thought, understanding the origin of his own disease focus which would help the Qi-Blood power to break through the focus more smoothly.
The body's disease focuses can be divided into three types: past, present, and future illnesses. The Qi-Blood power will elicit different reactions during a strike, depending on the type of disease focus encountered.
"Experiencing this condition, without a doubt, is a 'disease of the past.'"
Wang Sheng quickly made his judgment, narrowing down the possibilities considerably.
"The pain is in the ankle of the left leg..."
Searching his memory, Wang Sheng soon found the source of the disease focus encountered by the Qi-Blood power.
"In the year when I was 12, my left ankle was injured by a sickle. I even rested at home for many days. I thought it had healed, but has it not fully recovered?"
Wang Sheng gained a new understanding of Qi Rushing to the Disease. Such detailed diagnostics could even rediscover an injury from when he was 12.
For a person, this could be considered healed, but for the "Inner Core Skill," it was also a hidden risk.
Once the origin was determined, the rest was much easier to handle!
Wang Sheng started to control the Qi-Blood power, maneuvering it around his left ankle, and indeed, he quickly felt a concealed blood clot.
Under his control, the Qi-Blood power launched a fierce attack.
The pain in his left ankle became increasingly intense, as if something was slicing through it.
This was because when the Qi-Blood power was striking the disease focus, facing a 'disease of the past' would cause one's body to experience a feeling of "relapse of an old illness."
Wang Sheng's ankle had sustained a cut, so now he felt a slicing sensation.
"It really does hurt!"
However painful, he had to endure it; this was a process that must be experienced during the cultivation of Inner Core Skill.
Half a minute passed, and under the ferocious assault of the Qi-Blood power, the disease focus at the ankle began to loosen. Wang Sheng fully concentrated his spiritual power, gathering all of the Qi-Blood power, then with a sudden surge...
Boom!
It was as if a dam had collapsed, and the sound of rushing waters entered his ears.
The sound of the waters rushing was the sound of the Qi-Blood flowing unimpeded, a sound that only Wang Sheng, who was introspecting, could hear.
This sound signified that the Qi-Blood power at the ankle had been broken through!
The Qi-Blood power continued to run, seeking the next disease focus.
Wang Sheng also ended his introspective state.
"Is this what it feels like to break through a disease focus?"
In fact, it was a very minor disease focus, one that could easily be cleared by the autonomous circulation of the Qi-Blood power, and he didn't really need to control it.
But Wang Sheng wanted to concretely feel the sensation of Qi Rushing to the Disease, which is why he introspected.
After experiencing it, overall—
There were no particular sensations.
Qi Rushing to the Disease is divided into three stages: Finding Disease, Flipping Illness, and reducing the disease.
In the process of Finding Disease and Flipping Illness, one's strength wouldn't change much; only in the final stage of reducing the disease would strength continuously improve as the illness receded.
During the Finding Disease process, it would be odd if Qi-Blood Power could experience any significant changes.
The only special sensation was the pain of "old ailments relapsing"!
Next, Wang Sheng still needed to follow the proper order in cultivation, enhancing his Qi-Blood Power and the progress of Inner Core Skill, aiming to complete the process of Qi Rushing to the Disease as soon as possible.
In the end, he returned to the Eight Section Brocade and Inner Core Skill—the Foundation Method and Foundation Method were the most important.
And to improve the progress of these two—
"In any case, it's time to farm first!"
Having experienced the process of Qi-Blood Power impacting the disease, Wang Sheng eventually had to return to the basics, farming.
Based on the current situation, unless he brought Medicinal Plant Cultivation up to three Breakthroughs, resolving the issue of resources, cultivation progress would be remarkably slow.
Especially the progress of the Eight Section Brocade.
A month ago, the progress of Eight Section Brocade was "Breakthrough+2 (25%)", and now there hadn't been much improvement, reaching only "Breakthrough+2 (38.5%)".
In one month's time, he made only a 13.5% advancement in progress, which is uncharacteristically slow.
Therefore, Wang Sheng rested for a while before starting the great endeavor of farming once again.
All progress bars for herbs were included in Medicinal Plant Cultivation, allowing Wang Sheng a large amount of time to focus on increasing the progress bar for "Medicinal Plant Cultivation".
However, when he started farming, Wang Sheng found that the progress bar for "Medicinal Plant Cultivation" grew slower than those for individual herb cultivation.
This was anticipated beforehand.
But based on Wang Sheng's experience with viewing so many progress bars, with enough time dedicated, it should take only half a month to increase Medicinal Plant Cultivation to three Breakthroughs.
So Wang Sheng began the half-month-long cultivation of medicinal herbs.
...
Half a month later.
Wang Sheng was still the same, with only a slight enhancement in strength, while Qi-Blood Power had once again busted through several minor disease foci.
The greatest gain might be the roomful of medicinal herbs.
To most ordinary people, these might be considered precious, but after testing, Wang Sheng found that the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills made from ordinary herbs didn't meet his needs; they had an effect, but it was slow and less direct than the effect of meat.
Therefore, those herbs weren't of much use to him; Wang Sheng simply took some to Li Yongfeng to exchange for money to buy meat and maintain the daily basic cultivation frequency of the Eight Section Brocade.
But from today on, things would be different!
"Level: Qi Rushing to the Disease, Finding Disease 22.5% (First Grade Martial Artist)
Eight Section Brocade: Breakthrough+2 (48.5%)
Inner Core Skill (Hundred Days Foundation Establishment): Breakthrough+2 (63%)
Herb Recognition: Breakthrough+2 (20%)
Medicinal Plant Cultivation: Breakthrough+3 (1%)"
Since he had devoted most of his time to enhancing "Medicinal Plant Cultivation" over half a month, it finally reached the third Breakthrough as expected.
Today, he would harvest the first batch of special medicinal herbs and start crafting the unique Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills.
"Three years' time… pah, the pace of cultivation is finally getting back on track!"
