Chapter 2296 - 2299: Six Years in a Glance—Achieving the Strongest and Perfect Dao Fruit in Medical Dao (Fifth Update)

Looking at Shen Qiang, who was suddenly filled with spirit, Taiyin Youying, as beautiful as a crescent moon, couldn't help but show a faint smile at the corners of her pink lips, and with her beautiful eyes gazing at the ocean, she felt a little more gratified.

"I am a doctor. If I can survive on the battlefield, I can save many people. If I have the power of the Dao Fruit Stage, then performing a life-saving surgery might just take a second. If I move fast enough, even a fatal injury has a chance to be saved. As long as I am present, our personnel will have no worries and will fight more fiercely!"

"If the enemy heavily injures our side and they receive swift treatment, not only will they not die, but they will continue fighting. This will surely demoralize the enemy."

Shen Qiang murmured excitedly to himself: "Yes, as long as we don't die, the battle will continue, and the enemy cannot win. The strongest Dao Fruit of a doctor is to make oneself or those one wants to save immortal."

"You need to ensure that you don't die first!" The exceptionally beautiful Taiyin Youying suddenly interjected.

Shen Qiang's eyes brightened and he said, "Yes, if they discover I am present, the person I want to save won't die, so the enemy will think about eliminating me first."

"Wrong." Shen Qiang, who was completely absorbed in thought, said, "If they find they can't kill me, they will shift their attack target to the people I'm saving. This means I must ensure that both myself and the people I need to heal don't die."

"Invincibility?" Shen Qiang frowned: "This kind of ability to not take any damage often appears in online games, but the problem is, such abilities usually consume a lot of energy. What if the True Essence runs out?"

"No, my Dao Fruit should consume very little True Essence, so it can endure and last until the battle is over. This is the basic requirement. If I can't do this, such a Dao Fruit is useless to me."

"Because if in a peaceful scenario, there is no need for Dao Fruit to save people, I can securely and slowly treat patients."

Shen Qiang paced back and forth, seriously contemplating: "The reason Dao Fruits are powerful and sought after by cultivators is because they can defy the heavens and change fate, altering unfavorable situations, either by killing someone or saving oneself. They are essentially used as a trump card."

"As a disciple of the Medical Saint, I cannot pursue alchemy during combat, so in battle, besides facing the fight directly, the only thing I can do is save people. Also, on the battlefield, injuries are mainly external, so what I need is..."

Shen Qiang's eyes lit up, but he was then astonished: "A low-energy-consumption operating room where no one dies or becomes a demon!"

At the moment he confirmed what kind of Dao Fruit he truly needed through gradual analysis, Shen Qiang was dumbfounded himself.

Because it didn't sound powerful at all!

Yet at the same time, beside him, Taiyin Youying smiled instead. That smile, which turned her beautiful eyes into a crescent moon, not only made her incredibly charming, but her light sigh also made Shen Qiang's heart skip a beat.

"A low-energy, high-durability operating room where no one dies or becomes a demon sounds very good. If you can truly achieve this, once we seize the Divine Corpse, even if the Sea Emperor arrives, it won't matter. You can also resurrect Qingxuan."

"And if my memory is correct, the reason that woman called War Goddess Athena died was not because she was injured, but because she violated the rules of the Heavenly Dao. Her physical condition was at its peak. Even though Qingxuan can only control fifty percent of the power, with me assisting, we might not win, but escaping shouldn't be difficult."

In an instant, Shen Qiang, who originally thought this Dao Fruit was lacking, suddenly became resolute in his gaze.

Because Shen Qiang understood very well.

The value of a doctor is not in how well he can fight, but in how many lives he can save.

Cultivating here and burning my youth.

Is to save Heshenghe, giving Heshenghe the capital to confront any cultivation forces.

No matter how good Shen Qiang is at fighting, what difference does one more Dao Fruit Stage cultivator like Shen Qiang make?

If a real peak-level elder takes action, I'm afraid Shen Qiang won't even have time to groan before dying.

But the situation changes if Qingxuan can be resurrected; she is a strong True Immortal in the Immortal Realm, considered a top talent among young people. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been a general.

Even if she can't restore her True Immortal level, as long as she can wield Athena's power, it's enough for her to stand out from the crowd, plus the return of the Flower Crown to restore half of Youying's power, and the return of Uncle Gui with Shen Qiang, this kind of strength absolutely has the ability to challenge Gong Ziyi.

If the Dao Fruit is an operating room where no one dies, and no one can kill Shen Qiang or anyone by his side, no matter how they fight, Shen Qiang will ultimately win.

After all, compared to staying here and cultivating into an old man before coming forward, this is already the most perfect choice.

"Understood, my Dao Fruit will definitely be the operating room where death does not occur!"

Shen Qiang's eyes shone brightly, his expression determined.

Seeing that Shen Qiang has already decided and seems unlikely to change, the unparalleled Qingxuan suddenly appeared, then knelt before Shen Qiang, raised her face, and looked at Shen Qiang softly: "Master, please forgive Qingxuan's impertinence. In fact, Dao Fruit is just the foundation for Heavenly Dao Techniques, and it can continue to be cultivated after reaching completion."

Shen Qiang's eyes lit up: "You mean, my Dao Fruit can become stronger in the future?"

Qingxuan earnestly nodded and said: "But the later development of Heavenly Dao Techniques completely depends on the initial rules. That is to say, once the Dao Fruit is initially formed, its foundation has already been laid, and further cultivation will only develop outward from this foundation. Therefore, Qingxuan pleads with you to not be too reckless and to think carefully, enhancing the concept as much as possible, since there is only one such opportunity."

Shen Qiang laughed: "Using multiple rules simultaneously is a good idea. Don't worry, I am a calm person and won't be reckless."

As beautiful as a crescent moon, Taiyin Youying smiled at this and said: "That's a good idea. I happen to know some uses for Bone Rules. If you need, I can help you."

"Perfect!"

Shen Qiang's eyes shone brightly.

Six months later.

Kneeling by the seaside, Shen Qiang frowned: "A perfect operating room must be able to immobilize patients because they always struggle erratically under pain."

One year later.

"A perfect surgery requires anesthesia first, making it easier for the doctor to work and causing less suffering for the patient."

One and a half years later.

"A doctor should have the ability to expel those who shouldn't be in the operating room to avoid being disturbed, as this is the doctor's absolute domain."

Two years later.

"Time is a big issue, as sometimes the loss of life is just a moment; I need to control it."

Three years later.

"Reviving the dead is not allowed, but if I change the rules, the operating room should also be able to become a slaughterhouse."

Four years later.

"My operating room can kill, save, shelter, and expel, it can provide insights, collect data, perform cardiovascular surgery, neurosurgery, anesthesia, transplants, yet it seems something is still missing."

Five years later.

"It's done. It has integrated all the functions of a hospital and a slaughterhouse, with ultra-low True Essence consumption. I am sure this is the Dao Fruit I want!"

Six years, three months, and four days later, with dense clouds, torrential rain, and monstrous waves crashing like Mount Tai.

A bearded, ragged Shen Qiang opened his eyes.

In an instant, the giant waves vanished into thin air, and sunshine pierced through the clouds.
