Chapter 192: Chapter 192

Upon hearing Bai Susu’s words, Imperial Physician Ming immediately beamed with joy, "Hahaha, I knew you weren’t a stingy person, my disciple. Let me tell you, I have a secret formula for making ointments. Once you’re feeling better, I’ll teach you hand-in-hand." Bai Susu smiled, "Thank you, Master."

"Alright then, since you’re not feeling well, we won’t disturb your rest any longer." Having achieved his purpose, Imperial Physician Ming was ready to leave.

Prime Minister Bai nodded and then escorted Imperial Physician Ming out.

Once the two of them exited Bai Susu’s courtyard, Imperial Physician Ming sighed to Prime Minister Bai, "Old Bai, your granddaughter is likely someone destined for great fortune."

Prime Minister Bai replied in a very good mood, "I’m not hoping for any grand fortune in her future, just for her to be healthy and live a long life."

But at this moment, Prime Minister Bai had no idea that soon enough, "live a long life" would no longer be just a blessing.

It was only after Prime Minister Bai and Imperial Physician Ming left that Bai Susu breathed a sigh of relief.

Luckily, she managed to fool them.

However, Imperial Physician Ming, true heir of the Poison Doctor lineage, was indeed powerful. He even sensed the additional Pure Yang Qi in her body.

Evidently, the power came from Feng Qiwu.

This also explains why every time she approaches Feng Qiwu, the chill in her body eases.

At that moment, the two maids, Chuntao and Nuansha, looked at Bai Susu with surprise, "Miss, does that mean your body is healed according to Imperial Physician Ming?"

Bai Susu nodded slightly, "Yes, but he only saw the surface."

"What do you mean?" The two looked at her puzzled.

Bai Susu smiled but didn’t explain, "Even if I told you, you might not understand. Just know it’s a good thing."

The fact that her physique seems to complement Feng Qiwu’s is not something she should let anyone know now.

If the wrong person heard about it, it would not only bring disaster upon her but also cause significant trouble for Feng Qiwu.

After all, many don’t want Feng Qiwu’s madness to be cured.

So she, as the sole antidote... once others find out, will undoubtedly become a target that many must eliminate.

Meanwhile, Feng Qiwu firmly held a Star Stone, gradually mastering the realm.

According to Witch Doctor Gu He, below the Star Realm, there are nine stages of cultivation, primarily to train the physical body and practice external strength.

The first stage is guiding Qi into the body; this is the entry-level for cultivation.

The second is the Body Refining Realm, where the body begins to be tempered.

Once the body reaches a certain level of tempering, it can enter the third stage, the Bone Refining Realm, focusing on one’s bones.

After thoroughly refining all bones, the body undergoes significant changes, with strength greatly enhanced, thus stepping into the fourth Divine Power Realm.

Once external strength is adequately honed, one can begin focusing on inner strength, entering the fifth Blood Coagulation Realm.

After tempering the blood, the most critical sixth stage of the physical phase, Aperture Opening, is reached.

Aperture Opening involves opening the body’s energy points for storing Star Power. The more apertures opened, the bigger the capacity for Star Power, the deeper the foundation, and the more beneficial for future cultivation.

The human body has 409 apertures in total, and it’s said that those who can open over 200 are considered geniuses.

After Aperture Opening, comes introspection and the Qi Refining Realm.

Upon reaching the peak of Qi Refining, the quantity of Star Power within will undergo qualitative change, called Star Transformation.

At this point, if one successfully refines all the Star Power in the major apertures into Source Star, they formally enter another level of cultivation, the Star Realm!

Witch Doctor Gu He always assumed he had already surpassed the Star Realm.

In reality, according to his own assessment, his current cultivation is only at the Blood Coagulation Realm.

However, perhaps due to his special physique, even at the Blood Coagulation Realm, his power greatly exceeded Witch Doctor Gu He’s expectations.

Thinking of this, Feng Qiwu slightly squinted his eyes and, in the next moment, took out all the Star Stones from his Star Ring.

Then he closed his calm eyes and began to concentrate on absorbing Star Power.

As for the cultivation technique for absorbing Star Power... He had developed it by combining the characteristics of the Star Absorption Technique and other techniques, tailored to his unique physique.

He called it the Devouring Star Technique.

Because this technique devours Star Power at an incredible speed, during operation, the Star Power rushes into the Dantian like a river into the sea.

Perhaps Feng Qiwu truly had an extraordinary gift for cultivation.

Soon, he vaguely sensed the locations of all the major apertures within his body.

Since these apertures had not yet been infused with Star Power, they were still in a closed state. Read complete versıon only at NoveI[F]ire.net

Once he realized he had stepped into the Aperture Opening stage, Feng Qiwu began to frantically devour the nearby Star Stones without hesitation, using Star Power to impact all the major apertures inside, infusing Star Power into them.

First, he focused on the main points around his head and face, followed by the torso and limb points.

Soon, he opened up 108 major acupoints almost effortlessly within a few breaths, infusing them with Star Power.

Which then became areas for storing Star Power, starting to crazily absorb and gather Star Power.

But Feng Qiwu remained calm, unaware of how dangerous and reckless his actions actually were.

He simply continued to drive Star Power towards the apertures emitting a faint white glow within his body.

Half an hour later, all 361 meridian points were opened.

Then came the remaining 48 extra-meridian acupoints.

These extra-meridian acupoints were much sturdier than the meridian points, making it difficult to find the weak spots to attack without internal vision.

But this wasn’t a problem for Feng Qiwu.

Having been sick for so long, he was very familiar with the locations of body acupoints.

As one high-grade Star Stone after another turned to powder and disappeared, the aura surrounding Feng Qiwu grew increasingly powerful.

After another half hour, he smoothly broke through the last acupoint, and the apertures in his body, having been rushed into by the surging Star Power, sparked storm after storm, sharply increasing the need for Star Power.

Fortunately, he had plenty of high-grade Star Stones on hand, and Star Power was sufficient to fill all these apertures.

Once every aperture in his body was filled with Star Power, Feng Qiwu naturally entered the Introspection Realm, observing the situation inside him clearly.

It was then he discovered that the meridians in his body were already full of countless tiny scratches, like a thousand cuts.

If he had lost concentration while absorbing Star Power earlier and disrupted the meridians...

Thinking of this, Feng Qiwu couldn’t help but clench his hands tightly.

Then soon relaxed them again.

Wondering about things that hadn’t happened was pointless, but at least he had succeeded, right?

And just then, a mighty force suddenly emerged from his spine and surged into his four limbs.

Feng Qiwu finally saw where the force that had been tormenting him for so long originated from.

To his surprise, there was a bone resembling a sword within his spine!
