Chapter 500: Chapter 500: Ancient Needle Technique, Heaven-Burning Fire

Dumbfounded!

Stupefied!

Petrified!

Everyone was dumbstruck, staring in utter disbelief at the scene unfolding before them!

How could this be?

One second, Zhang Dakuan was in excruciating pain, sweat beading on his forehead!

The next, he had suddenly transformed into a superman, lifting the entire hospital bed!

Mind you, the bed frames at Huichun Hall were made of solid metal, weighing several hundred pounds!

And Zhang Dakuan had actually lifted it!

This was a man with a herniated lumbar disc!

This was completely unscientific!

The Divine Doctors all looked at one another, completely dumbfounded. None of them had a clue what was going on!

The netizens from Country H were instantly silenced!

The netizens from Dragon Country, who had been holding it in for so long, finally had a chance to let loose and celebrate!

[Hahaha! Hahaha! I knew it! The Country H netizens celebrated way too early, didn’t they? Look at them now, Divine Doctor Cheng just slapped them silly!]

[Divine Doctor Cheng is incredible, isn’t he? He clearly just used a Basic Needle Technique! Why was the effect so good?]

[I was terrified when I saw Patient No. 9 drenched in sweat from the pain, but then Cheng Wangzhen hit me with a complete surprise!]

[Look, everyone! It’s not just us netizens who can’t understand what’s happening. Even the Divine Doctors are clueless. Their mouths are hanging open wide enough to fit a goose egg!]

...

Amidst the crowd’s dumbfounded and disbelieving stares, Cheng Yuan slowly turned to Park Hao and asked faintly, "Divine Doctor Pu, is this response satisfactory?"

Cheng Yuan’s voice was soft, devoid of any mockery, but Park Hao wished he could find a hole to crawl into and hide! His old face instantly turned the color of a pig’s liver!

He, Park Hao, was revered as the Han Medical Needle Saint, yet he couldn’t comprehend Cheng Yuan’s technique and had repeatedly demanded an explanation!

This was a massive loss of face!

But Park Hao was a true medical practitioner. Despite the immense embarrassment, he didn’t bottle up his questions. Instead, he asked earnestly.

"Dr. Cheng, what just happened?"

Cheng Yuan smiled faintly. "Dr. Park, you can check Mr. Zhang’s pulse and examine his bones."

"Alright!"

Park Hao turned to Zhang Dakuan. "Mr. Zhang, please put the bed down and hold out your arm."

Zhang Dakuan quickly set the bed down and extended his arm to Park Hao. Park Hao placed his fingers on Zhang Dakuan’s pulse point, and his expression changed drastically!

Just moments ago, when he had checked Zhang Dakuan’s pulse, he had found his vitality to be extremely weak, and his qi and blood flow were feeble.

These were normal symptoms for someone who had been bedridden for a long time.

But now, Zhang Dakuan’s vitality was incredibly strong!

His qi and blood were surging powerfully!

It was like that of an athlete who trained every day!

This was incomprehensible to Park Hao. Cheng Yuan had only inserted a single needle, and it didn’t even look like a reinforcing technique. There was no lifting, thrusting, or twirling!

How could it produce such a dramatic effect?

"Mr. Zhang, please lie face down on the bed."

"Ah, alright."

Zhang Dakuan obediently lay down on the bed, and Park Hao began to examine his bones by touch.

When he had examined him earlier, Park Hao could clearly feel the problems.

Some of Zhang Dakuan’s vertebrae were enlarged due to inflammation.

There was minor damage to the vertebral joints, and even tiny bone spurs.

But now, all those problems had vanished!

This was the lumbar spine of a perfectly healthy person!

Cheng Yuan smiled faintly. "Dr. Park, what do you think?"

Park Hao released his hands with a bitter smile. He knew he had lost, and lost so completely that he didn’t even understand how!

He was indignant!

Intensely indignant!

However, Park Hao had no choice but to accept reality!

"Dr. Cheng, your skills are superior. Mr. Zhang’s lumbar spine is completely healed. He can even perform heavy manual labor now!"

An uproar!

The entire Huichun Hall erupted!

Every livestream channel exploded!

Dragon Country’s netizens were ecstatic, while Country H’s netizens fell into despair!

[Impossible! Absolutely impossible! How could Teacher Pu lose?]

[Cheng Wangzhen is awesome! I knew he wouldn’t let us down!]

[I’m sorry, Cheng Wangzhen! I actually doubted you just now! I was wrong! From this day on, I’m your die-hard fan! No matter how unbelievable your claims are, I will support you without reservation!]

[Cheng Wangzhen crushed Park Hao’s Qi-Guided Needle with a Basic Needle Technique! His Acupuncture Technique is so far beyond Park Hao’s!]

Divine Doctor Xue looked at Cheng Yuan with a gaze full of adoration. "Divine Doctor Cheng, that couldn’t have been a Basic Needle Technique you just used, right? I couldn’t understand it at all!"

Cheng Yuan nodded slightly. "You have sharp eyes, Divine Doctor Xue. What I just performed was ’Heaven-Burning Fire.’ It’s a powerful reinforcing technique that stimulates the body, releasing the life potential hidden deep within the cells to rapidly heal bone injuries."

’Heaven-Burning Fire?’

Everyone looked on in confusion. Clearly, none of them had ever heard of such an Acupuncture Technique.

Park Hao asked hesitantly, "Divine Doctor Cheng, wasn’t that ’Burning Mountain’ from the Taiyi Divine Needle? What is ’Heaven-Burning Fire’? I’ve never heard of it."

Cheng Yuan frowned. He was reluctant to explain. After all, in the eyes of some Righteous Practitioners, the legacy of the Celestial Witch Lineage was considered completely heretical.

Fortunately, Jiang Daoyue was exceptionally knowledgeable and vaguely knew the origin of ’Heaven-Burning Fire’!

"I once read about ’Heaven-Burning Fire’ in an ancient medical text. During Ancient Times, Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan battled Chi You. Chi You was wounded by the Xuanyuan Sword, and his injuries wouldn’t heal. Coincidentally, a celestial fire descended from the heavens! An ancient shamanic doctor, inspired by observing this fire, created the supreme acupuncture technique, the *Celestial Witch Divine Needle*! He used it to heal Chi You’s wounds! Otherwise, the great war of the Ancient Times would have ended in its early stages."

’The Celestial Witch Divine Needle?’

’A supreme Acupuncture Technique from Ancient Times?’

Everyone looked at Cheng Yuan with envy. His luck was just too good, wasn’t it? To have actually inherited an Ancient Needle Technique!

"Divine Doctor Cheng, were you just using the *Celestial Witch Divine Needle*?"

Cheng Yuan began to bluff. "I’m not sure about that myself, but my medical skills and acupuncture techniques did indeed come from an ancient book."

Jiang Daoyue gave Cheng Yuan a deep look. "Divine Doctor Cheng, your talent for the Medical Dao is truly astonishing! To reach such a level just by self-studying from an ancient text! Divine Doctor Cheng, you are undoubtedly the greatest figure in the history of Dragon Country’s Medical Dao!"

"You flatter me, Divine Doctor Jiang. I still have a lot of room for improvement."

The corners of the other Divine Doctors’ mouths twitched uncontrollably.

’Dude, please don’t improve any further!’

’You can already crush us effortlessly. If you improve even more, how are we supposed to live with ourselves?’

Jiang Daoyue smiled and looked at Park Hao. "Divine Doctor Pu, based on the acupuncture competition between you and Divine Doctor Cheng, it is clear that Divine Doctor Cheng is superior. If you have no objections, I will announce the result."

Park Hao opened his mouth but said nothing to refute it. After all, they were live on camera, and as the Han Medical Needle Saint, he had to maintain some dignity.

However, Cui Youzhe had no such reservations.

"Divine Doctor Jiang, that’s a bit biased! Dr. Cheng only succeeded because he benefited from Teacher Pu’s initial work! That’s the only reason Patient No. 9 was healed! Without Teacher Pu’s initial treatment, Dr. Cheng could have never healed the patient so easily! I believe we need another round!"
