Chapter 192: Detox, Second Uncle Was Stunned
Technique, or rather some rather special Technique, is not the same as Elder Xinran's Technique.
The Technique within sister Chen Qinger's body consists of five Techniques, each bearing a distinct attribute.
The Five Elements attribute Technique represents the five attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth; each Technique is a unique attribute, yet these five Techniques can surprisingly blend together into a single whole—very strange and also… rare.
These Techniques are all high‑level Techniques, possessing a certain sword intent; Chuyang extracted a strand of Technique, examined it closely, observed it closely, and found its cutting power very strong— even Chuyang could feel the latent power. Cousin Chen Qinger managing to endure these Techniques for so long is already commendable.
Below the Golden Core stage, anyone who encounters these Techniques would be killed, and moreover, this strand of Technique is not abundant; although the Technique in sister Chen Qinger's body appears plentiful, in fact it is an evolution of a single strand, continuously expanding within her and constantly cutting her body.
In this situation, without eliminating those Techniques, it cannot be resolved.
"Five Elements Technique, five attributes—truly a rare Technique."
The Five Elements Technique is also the most basic Technique, the most common.
Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are the elements humans encounter most; each can be seen at home. To comprehend and condense sword intent is not easy— the simplest is actually very difficult, and it must match each person's attribute. In other words, human attributes differ; some people align with the metal attribute, thereby possessing superior talent in metal, and cultivating metal‑based techniques and sword methods yields double results with half the effort.
The same applies to the others; conversely, cultivating techniques and sword methods of other attributes results in double the effort for half the gain.
Yet all five attributes can be cultivated, and they are condensed into Technique and fused together without distinction. This ability is the first Chuyang has ever seen; such sword intent surpasses Elder Xinran's sword intent comprehension. Merely this encounter with the sword Dao is enough to earn Elder Xinran's praise.
This is why Chuyang was so shocked upon seeing this strand of Technique.
Extract, devour; the sword Dao within the Golden Core was swallowed whole.
The heart's sword Dao gained an extra strand of Technique—devoured, fused, comprehended.
A slight analysis shows the Technique is not abundant; cannot analyze much.
Chuyang could see the sword intent of the heart's sword Dao had grown a bit, now containing the Five Elements attributes; this scene made Chuyang's eyes brighten.
"This is Five Elements attribute Technique; even a single strand of Technique is enough for me… to comprehend the Five Elements sword Dao, perhaps even the Five Elements sword intent—not impossible."
"If I swallow it all, could I…"
Chuyang, a bit impatient, reached out and pressed his hand on sister Chen Qinger's abdomen to extract Technique.
Another strand of Technique was drawn out; Chuyang directly inhaled it into his body, that strand
Technique entered his body and was immediately devoured by the Golden Core.
One strand of Technique was insufficient, so he continued extracting.
The Technique in sister Chen Qinger's dantian began to be fully extracted.
All of it entered Chuyang's dantian Golden Core, strengthening the Golden Core's sword Dao.
While extracting, he also comprehended; Chuyang began to grasp the Five Elements Technique.
This scene fell into Chen Chen's eyes, leaving him utterly shocked.
"Is nephew Chuyang extracting Technique?"
"So much Technique entering the body is very dangerous."
He tried to speak a warning, but Chen Chusheng stopped him.
"Second uncle, no need to worry about Chuyang; he has a clear understanding."
Chen Chusheng trusts his younger brother; Chuyang would never do anything without certainty. If he dares to do this, he must have some support.
Chen Chen worried: "These Techniques are extremely fierce; once they enter the body they cannot be cleared nor shattered. Chuyang's cultivation is still weak, he…"
The second uncle does not want Chuyang to risk himself to save his daughter; that would be unworthy.
Although he is moved, he knows this cannot be done.
Nor can Chuyang endanger himself for Chen Qinger.
"Second uncle, it's fine; you must trust Chuyang."
Chen Chusheng's mouth twitched; the second uncle was actually worrying about his younger brother's cultivation— is this a game?
Even the second uncle can't easily trade a few moves with his brother; worrying about his brother is simply unnecessary, okay?
Didn't you see my brother's eyes shining? He's definitely taken a liking to these Techniques. To others they're deadly poison; to my brother they're a delicacy.
Shang Hongxue looked at older brother Chuyang, and her heart relaxed.
Shang Hongxue looked at brother Chuyang, and her heart settled.
Brother Chuyang's excitement and happiness were unmistakable; she lowered her head to assess Chen Qinger. She was familiar with this woman; their relationship was decent—not very close, but not distant either; they could greet each other when they met.
Seeing this woman again, she hadn't expected such a situation.
The Five Elements Technique was drawn out, and Chen Qinger's pale face gained a hint of rosiness.
Her trembling body also began to steady.
"The Technique has lessened a bit."
Chuyang extracted all the Five Elements Technique from Chen Qinger's body; it was devoured by the Golden Core, yet it was still insufficient.
It's far too little; these Techniques aren't even enough to fill a tooth gap.
Hearing this, Chen Chen's mouth twitched; to purge these Techniques he had spent so much time, wasted so many favors, yet could not eradicate them.
At his nephew's side, he complained that the Technique was too little.
Staring in astonishment at this nephew, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, he realized he didn't understand him.
"What could I possibly have? I'm doing great." Chen Chuyang said with a smile: "Qing'er little sister's Technique has been cleared, but the toxins in her body haven't been completely removed; she needs to soak in medicinal baths several times, and I will refine a few detox pills for her, after which she will naturally be fine."
"I have nothing wrong, I'm fine," Chuyang said with a smile. "Sister Chen Qinger's Technique has been purged, but the toxins in her body aren't fully cleared yet; she needs to soak in a medicinal bath several times. I'll forge a few antidote pills for her, and it'll be fine then."
"Her body is rather weak; she may need to recuperate for a while."
"No problem, I'll follow your lead." Chen Chen was frightened; he would obey everything Chuyang said, as long as his daughter could recover, he dared not ask for more.
"Second uncle, you watch over her; I'll go prepare the Item."
Then, he stared blankly at his daughter, checked her condition, and his tightly furrowed brows relaxed.
Then, he stared blankly at his daughter, examined her condition, and his tightly furrowed brows relaxed.
Chen Chen also gave a faint smile, gently stroking his daughter's cheek.
"Qinger, it's all right now; your brother will heal you. We're going home; it's fine."
【61】 "You'll recover quickly."
Chen Chen comforted his daughter; the worries of these days, the panic and fear of these days, all calmed at this moment.
His daughter is everything to him; his daughter being safe is more important than anything.
Chen Qinger fell into a deep sleep; the pain no longer tormented her.
Half an hour later.
The Item was ready; Chen Chuyang had his second uncle throw his cousin into the pot.
That familiar pot appeared again, and Chen Chen was somewhat surprised.
"Chuyang, are you sure this is the place?"
"Yes, hurry up, second uncle."
"Oh oh oh."
Second uncle Chen Chen carefully put Chen Qinger into the pot, watching Chen Chuyang light the fire, and the Item in the pot bubbled.
And the daughter, she was soaking in the center of the pot.
That appearance was not like treating an illness, but rather like simmering.
His baby daughter became a dish?
"How long will it take?"
It's not that Chen Chen doesn't believe Chen Chuyang, but this method is really... surprising.
Even though he has seen many bizarre things, this thing before him is still the first time he has seen something like this.
No one has ever seen treating illness by boiling in a pot; is this treating illness?
"About a day, this is just the first course of treatment."
"There are still two more courses of treatment; after three courses, Qinger's little sister will probably be fine."
