Chapter 777 - 766: Traveling with Hua Tuo

"Do you believe that the cultivation of an Upper God is so profound that with a single breath, they can blow away a group of warriors?"

"Wow."

Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, Cao Zhang, and others exclaimed repeatedly:

"How is that possible?!"

"So powerful!"

...

Only after Cao Mengde saw that Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and the others had quieted down did he speak:

"That’s the reality. So, I hope you all can be more diligent and serious in your scholarly and martial pursuits. You must know, Upper God was renowned across the world for being all-powerful from the very beginning. I don’t expect you to be an All-Powerful King, I only hope that you can make some achievements in both literature and martial arts.

Especially in martial power.

You must become strong! Only then can you leap out of this small pond world and venture to higher tiers of existence and broader horizons..."

Cao Mengde spoke slowly.

He revealed some of the secrets he knew to Cao Zhi, Cao Pi, and others.

In the eyes of Cao Mengde.

Cao Pi was already over ten years old, Cao Zhang seven or eight, and Cao Zhi five or six...

They weren’t too young, especially Cao Pi, who had reached the age of understanding.

Thus, Cao Mengde chose today, at this appropriate moment, to disclose some secrets, hoping that his sons could break free from the cage and transcend beyond.

"And what about you, Father?"

"I will also strive to cultivate and aim to transcend. As for the throne? When the time comes, I will follow the example of Upper God, choosing someone capable and responsible to become the emperor. Compared to immortality, glory and wealth are but an empty dream..."

...

...

After realizing Ding Ling’s power, the children like Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and Cao Zhang also wished to become his apprentices.

Especially Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and Cao Zhang, who had a strong desire, and if not for Cao Mengde’s intervention, would have run to kneel outside the Prince’s Mansion that very day.

Not understanding was one thing.

Once they understood, and knowing that Cao Chong and Cao Ang had already succeeded in becoming apprentices, the fire in their hearts could no longer be extinguished.

Yet Ding Ling was completely unaware of this.

He, accompanied by Hua Tuo, Zhang Zhongjing, and Cao Chong, rode a carriage toward the Prince’s Mansion.

Cao Chong sat obediently to the side, his large, round eyes looking at Hua Tuo, Zhang Zhongjing, and Ding Ling, occasionally calling out gently to his master.

He was very adorable.

Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing seemed to like Cao Chong very much, and more than once expressed to Ding Ling:

"Luckily you descended. Otherwise, ten years from now, this child would likely have died. The trace of True Sun Flame you mentioned continuously burns his life away, and we are helpless. Is the martial dao cultivation you spoke of really useful?"

"We’ll know by trying, won’t we?"

Ding Ling smiled slightly:

"My Martial Dao True Understanding is all-encompassing, with skills and laws in the Dao of Fire. Once I fracture a portion of the True Sun Skill, and if Cao Chong channels the True Sun Flame into his dantian, continually strengthening his foundation and physique, as long as his body and meridians are strong enough to withstand the fire, with time, he will naturally become a Fire God!"

This was Ding Ling’s speculation.

Moreover, his Martial Dao True Understanding indeed contained techniques and laws in the way of fire.

In Ding Ling’s Divine Emperor Fist, there is the skill ’Heaven-Scorching Earth-Burning’, where one punch can send blazing flames that pierce through the sky!

Thus, extracting a portion of the True Sun Skill from the Martial Dao True Understanding is not difficult.

The hard part is making this True Sun Skill reach the Immortal Level.

The Martial Dao True Understanding is only at the Immortal Level, and the fractured True Sun Skill is at most at the Dharma Level.

To make the True Sun Skill reach the Immortal Level, unless the Martial Dao True Understanding advances further to a stronger law.

This is akin to the Everlasting Skill, because its tier is high enough, the fractured Small Faceless Skill, North Nether Divine Skill, and Eight Desolates and Six Harmonies, Only I Am Supreme Skill are extremely potent!

The Sun Skill fractured from the Martial Dao True Understanding follows the same logic.

"If that is truly the case. Ding Ling, you are indeed a man with immeasurable virtue."

Hua Tuo praised warmly:

"When we heard a few days ago that you had returned, we wanted to visit. But because we were too busy, and with so many people around the Prince’s Mansion, we refrained from intruding."

"It’s all my fault,"

Ding Ling replied:

"I should have visited the two of you first."

"You two should stop being so formal with each other."

Zhang Zhongjing laughed heartily:

"We’re all one family. Ding Ling. We won’t be too formal with you. But we are curious if you have brought back any advanced medical techniques or medical knowledge from the Upper Realm. Could you enlighten us?"

"Of course."

Ding Ling replied solemnly:

"Even if the two of you hadn’t asked, I would certainly have presented a Medical Canon."

These days.

Besides jointly cultivating special techniques with Diao Chan and others, allowing their strength to rapidly advance.

He also took the time to write down some secret manuals.

Among them are the ’Medical Canon’, ’Martial Arts Manual’, ’Array Manual’, etc.

The Medical Canon is meant for Hua Tuo and others.

The Martial Arts Manual is prepared for Tong Yuan and others.

...

The group sat in the carriage, chatting merrily, when cries of ’idol’ and ’Ding Ling’ echoed around them again.

It was the players and natives screaming and shouting.

Clearly, they recognized Ding Ling’s carriage.

Both Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing couldn’t help but be impressed.

Both were medical officials, as well as deans of the medical academy.

In recent years, they’ve gained quite a bit of admiration themselves, often garnering applause wherever they went.

But compared to Ding Ling, it seemed like a small witch facing a great witch.

Sitting beside Ding Ling, they felt more like green leaves, just there for contrast.

And yet, Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing felt no jealousy, but rather pride, grateful to have such a remarkable successor.

Upon reaching the Prince’s Mansion.

The screams and shouts gradually died down.

From start to finish, Ding Ling spoke very little with these players.

Simply because he understood his current influence, and also the nature of the players, who lost all reverence for the natives like Cao Mengde because they knew they wouldn’t die.

Even Ding Ling was regarded more like a celebrity.

If Ding Ling was overly amicable, the consequences would be apparent.

For there is no shortage of those who are insatiable and greedy in this world.

Seeing things clearly.

Ding Ling, therefore, did not engage much with the players.

With the Achievement Medal reaching increasingly higher tiers, Ding Ling now required no money, thus dismissing any thoughts of opening a martial arts school or interacting with large groups in a great city.

His sole purpose now was.

To achieve immortality with Diao Chan, Little Dragon Girl, and others!

Everything else is secondary.

’If it weren’t for the fact that players dying too much would lead to severe consequences like becoming idiots or comatose, they would likely have gone wild. Not even Cao Mengde could control them.’

Precisely because dying too much turns them into idiots, or even leaves them vegetative.

Players dared not overly provoke individuals like Cao Mengde with great strength and high status.

Naturally.

They’re even less inclined to challenge Ding Ling.
