Chapter 782: Miraculous Hands 9 Needles, No Taboos

“Wait!”

Yang Chan’s voice suddenly came from outside, reaching the ears of everyone in the room and stopping those who were about to remove the silver needles!

“If you take out the silver needles, Hall Master Gu can’t be saved!”

Yang Chan strode to Gu An’s bedside.

At that moment, the healthy color on Gu An’s face was slowly fading, returning to its previous pallor.

Elder Hua’s silver needles had worked, but unfortunately, it was a little too late!

This had led to the current situation. The life force provided by the elixir and the life force that automatically dissipated from Gu An’s body were both finite and couldn’t be drawn upon multiple times!

“Pharmacist Yang, do you have a better way?”

Upon hearing this, Elder Hua wasn’t annoyed. He simply dismissed his disciples and asked the question.

“Elder Hua, have you ever heard of the Nine Needle Skill?”

Yang Chan asked this only after checking Gu An’s condition.

“The Nine Needle Skill from the saying, ‘Nine Needles bring the dying back to life’?”

Elder Hua asked, his face a picture of astonishment.

“That’s the one!”

“I was fortunate enough to have acquired the Nine Needle Skill!”

Yang Chan nodded. At the same time, he took out a Healing Elixir and placed it directly into Gu An’s mouth. With a slight surge of Power from his hand, he made the Elixir slide down Gu An’s throat.

A significant amount of the Recovery Spirit Pill’s medicinal power had already been consumed. To use the needles again, he needed to replenish it.

Using another Recovery Spirit Pill would have a diminished effect, so he switched to a different Healing Elixir he had specifically brought with him!

First, he had to keep Gu An alive.

“Pharmacist Yang, you truly are lucky. Although I, this old man, have heard of the famous Nine Needle Skill—how nine needles can pull someone back from the brink of death—I’ve unfortunately never seen it myself!”

Elder Hua was a bit surprised, but then he considered that Yang Chan had been summoned by the Merak Saintess. Plus, with his talent in alchemy, he was highly regarded by her. For a figure like the Merak Saintess, it was perfectly normal to be able to acquire something like the Nine Needle Skill!

“I am very interested. May I observe the Nine Needle Skill in action here?”

Elder Hua asked, looking at Yang Chan.

It wasn’t as if one could learn a technique like the Nine Needle Skill just by observing. It was like when he had used his needles earlier; he had to explain the function of each silver needle. Furthermore, one also had to master the coordination of force, Power, and other factors to a certain degree before they could truly perform the technique.

You couldn’t learn it just by watching.

Even so, some people would not allow others to observe, precisely to prevent their techniques from being stolen.

This was the meaning behind Elder Hua’s inquiry.

If Yang Chan agreed, he would naturally stay. If Yang Chan refused, he would have to leave. But missing such an opportunity would be a shame. Even if he couldn’t learn it, just witnessing it would be a valuable experience.

“It’s fine. Please, Elder Hua, feel free to observe!”

“However, I came in a bit of a rush and didn’t bring my silver needles. I’ll need to borrow yours, Elder Hua!”

Yang Chan had silver needles in his Profound Yin Hanging Bead, but he didn’t have it on him. Neither did Han Bingyu.

He hadn’t expected Gu An’s condition to be so dire that there was no time to delay. Going back to get his silver needles would take too long.

The faster the life force dissipated from Gu An’s body, the harder it would be to awaken his consciousness!

“Pharmacist Yang, you may use any of these silver needles!”

At his words, Elder Hua had his disciples place the silver needles in front of Yang Chan.

“Many thanks!”

After clasping his fist in thanks, Yang Chan directly opened a set of silver needles and selected nine of varying sizes.

The Nine Needle Skill was, in essence, a method of stimulating the human body, but this stimulation targeted the Spirit directly.

With the silver needles in hand, Yang Chan’s figure swiftly moved to Gu An’s side. Then, his fingers twitched, and one by one, the needles landed on Gu An’s body as streams of Power surged into him.

The silver needles stimulated the physical body, while the Power amplified that stimulation. The needles landing on Gu An was not the end, but the beginning. Channeling the Power to create the stimulation was the true process!

“Ngh…”

Half an hour passed. Yang Chan was now covered in sweat. Just then, the perpetually unconscious Gu An blinked and let out a pained sound.

He had been severely wounded, with injuries penetrating his Five Viscera and Six Viscera. The pain was naturally immense.

At this, a look of joy flashed in the eyes of Yang Chan and the others. A reaction meant they were halfway to success!

He continued to channel his Power into Gu An’s body, guiding the life force within him to spread throughout his system and help him recover.

There was a huge difference between being conscious and unconscious!

“Ugh, it hurts so much…”

His body showed signs of recovery, but Gu An only felt more pain. Amidst the hazy feeling, he regained consciousness!

“Didn’t I die? How can I still be seeing you, Pharmacist Yang?”

Gu An’s eyes were filled with confusion as he looked at Yang Chan.

Clearly, his memory was stuck at the moment he was ambushed by the Bone Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster from the Alien Race.

Although he had subconsciously taken a Recovery Spirit Pill after being hit, as he was about to lose consciousness afterward, he felt like he was about to die!

Therefore, waking up now, he thought he was already dead!

“Hall Master Gu, if you want to die, I’m afraid you’ll have to wait a very long time!”

Hearing this, Yang Chan was stunned for a moment before replying with a smile.

“Don’t talk for now. Take all these Healing Elixirs, circulate your Flood Dragon Demon Force, and start refining their medicinal power!”

Yang Chan took out the other prepared Healing Elixirs and gave them all to Gu An.

At the same time, he quickly removed the silver needles from Gu An’s body. The main purpose of these needles was to stimulate Gu An and awaken him from his coma. Now that he was awake, they were no longer needed.

Otherwise, they would only continue to consume the life force within Gu An, which would do him no good.

He had made that choice earlier to save Gu An’s life, but now it was unnecessary!

“Mm!”

Gu An registered the words, nodded, and immediately began to circulate his Flood Dragon Demon Force. He started refining the medicinal power inside him, using it to repair his Five Viscera and Six Viscera.
