rson’s bright eyes dimmed but she still smiled as she said, "Alright then, welcome to visit our store again."Only when they had left the boutique did Xiao Yu see that Xiao Yu was carrying a bag. She l...Chapter 384: Golden Needle Technique to Dissipate Inner Energy

Xiao Yu ignited the Life Fire of Old Grandpa Song, fearing that he would die without anyone noticing.

Under normal circumstances, the Life Fire wouldn’t extinguish because although it was lit by a candle, this light was connected to Old Lady’s vitality. If someone accidentally blew out the flame and Old Grandpa still had some life force left, it would mean that it was his time to die according to destiny, and even if he were saved, there would be no way to bring him back.

Xiao Yu’s method of treating Old Grandpa Song carried too many risks. The old man was very elderly; although his health had been good all along, age is age — at one hundred years old, the organs in his body were severely aged.

If he hadn’t attempted to break through back then, there wouldn’t have been any problem, and he could have lived another ten or twenty years. But with his current state of health, attempting such a breakthrough meant that his body couldn’t bear the pressure caused by inner energy during the process.

With the golden needles in hand, Xiao Yu looked at Old Grandpa Song lying on the bed. He went to the abdominal area and gently inserted the needle into his dantian.

When he saw that the person with tattoos was bleeding uncontrollably during the basketball game, which stopped only when Xiao Yu released his inner energy, it reminded him of Old Mr. Song’s condition. Old Mr. Song had been suffering from a condition caused by excessive pressure on his frail body during the breakthrough process.

Therefore, he thought that if he could release the inner energy within Old Grandpa Song, it might be easier to treat his illness. The more he considered this approach, the more feasible it seemed, so he mentioned it to Song Hu-shan and others.

"Hmm" Xiao Yu, who was performing acupuncture on Old Grandpa Song’s dantian area with a golden needle, suddenly let out an exclamation of surprise.

It turned out that the golden needle in his hand could only pierce through the skin when it reached Old Grandpa Song’s dantian and couldn’t be inserted further. Every time Xiao Yu tried to insert the needle deeper, a gentle repelling force would emanate from the old man's dantian area, pushing the needle away.

Seeing this situation, Xiao Yu quickly activated the Upright Qi Scripture. As soon as he did so, he gathered his righteous qi in his palms.

The moment righteous qi condensed in Xiao Yu’s hands, a golden light flashed from the golden needles. When these needles were inserted into Old Grandpa Song's dantian this time, they seemed enveloped by the golden glow and entered without any delay.

When Xiao Yu's needle pierced through Old Grandpa Song's dantian, the old man lying on the bed in a coma suddenly convulsed. Meanwhile, the Life Fire of Old Grandpa Song flickered intermittently, dimming as if it was about to go out at any moment.

Seeing this situation, Xiao Yu’s heart jolted with alarm; without hesitation, a white line emerged from his right eye and surged towards Old Grandpa. As soon as the white line entered Old Grandpa Song's body, Xiao Yu severed the connection of the Eye of Life.

Although the young master's life force was just stabilized for an instant, Grandpa Song’s life fire became instantly stable.

When Xiao Yu saw that Grandpa Song’s life fire had already stabilized, he didn’t hesitate and immediately started manipulating the gold needles. As Xiao Yu twirled the needles, the internal strength inside Grandpa Song's body gradually dissipated from the needle points.

Grandpa Song was after all quite old and unlike that young man with a tattoo who had a healthy body. Moreover, the young man’s abilities were inferior compared to those of Grandpa Song who had reached an unfathomable realm.

Hence, Xiao Yu dared to directly pull out the needles from the tattooed man but could only twirl them in Grandpa Song's case. He was afraid that if he pulled out the needles on Grandpa Song directly, his body would explode like a burst balloon.

Xiao Yu’s hands manipulating the gold needles showed no signs of slowing down and they were spinning faster and faster. After half an hour, one could no longer see Xiao Yu’s fingers twirling the needles; if it was an ordinary person watching, he or she would think that Xiao Yu’s fingers had been stationary on the needles all along. However, a martial arts expert would know that his fingers were spinning at high speed.

Fortunately, Xiao Yu infused the gold needles with righteous energy; otherwise, the heat generated by the fast twirling of the needles alone could have burned Grandpa Song’s dantian.

Xiao Yu observed the flame connected to Grandpa Song's life force and seeing that it showed no signs of weakening, he secretly let out a sigh of relief. Apart from a slight change at the beginning, everything was proceeding very smoothly so far.

"Knock knock knock."

While Xiao Yu was busy with the acupuncture, someone knocked on the door.

"Who is it What do you want" The speed of Xiao Yu’s needle twirling did not slow down in the slightest due to the knocking and he just casually asked this question.

"Doctor Xiao, it's me, I’ve already boiled the medicine!" An elderly voice sounded from outside the door.

“Alright. Understood. Put it by the door first.” Xiao Yu said to Uncle Chen who was at the door, and at this critical juncture, he showed no intention of stopping.

Suddenly, more and more swirling winds started escaping from where Xiao Yu had inserted the needles; these swirling winds gradually accumulated into tornadoes made out of Grandpa Song’s internal strength inside the room.

These tornadoes wildly wreaked havoc in the room, making everything rattle noisily and causing the candle flame connected to life force to flicker dimly.

Upon seeing the room filled with intense energy and flickering candlelight, Xiao Yu was momentarily stunned. He had underestimated the internal strength within Elder Song's body; he hadn’t expected it to be so powerful.

Xiao Yu’s fingers paused slightly for a moment, after which the intense energy in the room vanished without a trace.

It turned out that just now, Xiao Yu's spirit had left his body momentarily and opened its mouth to swallow all the internal energy within the room into his spirit.

When the internal energy in the room dissipated, Xiao Yu’s fingers moved again. It took him three rounds like this before he finally drained all of Elder Song's internal strength.

After Xiao Yu had completely exhausted Elder Song's internal strength, what was left of his life force seemed almost extinguished, as if it could go out at any moment.

Xiao Yu didn’t show much panic upon seeing this; it was a natural consequence. Although Elder Song’s current state was caused by the internal energy within him, he had been able to survive until now thanks to that internal energy.

Therefore, after all of his internal energy was drained away, his life force quickly weakened.

Xiao Yu noticed that his life force had dwindled to a mere thread and rushed to the door as swiftly as possible.

"Xiao Yu, how is it"

"Xiao Yu, how’s Brother Song doing now"

Upon seeing Xiao Yu emerge from the opened room, Song Hushan and Lao Li immediately asked him.

Xiao Yu picked up the medicine on the ground as soon as he opened the door. Ignoring their questions, he carried the medicine back into the room and locked it again.

Seeing that Xiao Yu didn’t respond to them, Song Hushan and the others were filled with worry. Especially during the time they had just heard a wind-like sound inside the house, although there was no noise afterward, their concern remained.

After all, when Xiao Yu mentioned treating Elder Song earlier, he himself hadn’t seemed very confident. And when he picked up the medicine moments ago, his expression showed great tension, which made them even more worried.

Xiao Yu carried the medicine into the room and helped up Lord Song, who was barely clinging to life. He forced this bowl of tonic down.

Once the medicine was swallowed, the flickering flame of life gradually stabilized and showed no signs of extinguishing. As time went by, the flame grew stronger.

Xiao Yu let out a long sigh when he saw all this. Lord Song's condition had basically been stabilized; his internal organs had collapsed due to overwork, but after exhausting Lord Song’s inner strength, his failing organs gradually stopped deteriorating.

Although Lord Song's organs were no longer deteriorating, there was no sign of recovery in him. Xiao Yu knew that it was already a fortune for the deterioration to stop; it would be much harder to recover.

Gazing at the unconscious Lord Song, Xiao Yu frowned slightly. If this continued, although his internal organs would no longer deteriorate, Lord Song would be just an ordinary elderly person in terms of physical condition.

His five vital organs were now akin to those of a 110-year-old man after the recent deterioration; hence, it was possible for Lord Song to die anytime due to the aging of his internal organs.

Sitting on a stool, Xiao Yu pondered for a while. He had not used the Life Eye earlier because Lord Song's strength was too formidable, but now that Lord Song no longer possessed any inner strength, he wondered how effective the Life Eye would be in this situation

"Life Eye – activate!!"

Without hesitation, Xiao Yu stared at Lord Song and muttered.

With Xiao Yu's command, the white mysterious pattern within his right eye extended again. When it touched Lord Song, the flame of life gradually grew stronger until a blazing fire was ignited.

Seeing this, Xiao Yu quickly deactivated the Life Eye. His forehead was sweating profusely and his complexion had turned pale like paper.

Xiao Yu disregarded his own condition and snapped his fingers to sever the connection between Lord Song’s head and the talisman. As he did so, he pointed at the floating arcane talisman above Lord Song's head, causing it to dissipate in an instant.

Xiao Yu went over to take Lord Song's pulse for a moment before nodding. Although Lord Song was still weak, his organs had not only stopped deteriorating but also shown signs of recovery. If properly taken care of, Lord Song should be able to live another decade or so without issues.

Xiao Yu stood up and walked towards the door. Those people outside had been waiting for about four hours by now; they were likely anxious and restless at this point.eded and nowhere to be seen otherwise; that would be too selfish!""You're Liu, right Then I'll call you Little Liu."“Yeah, my last name is Liu. My name's Li'erxi.” Replied the man named Liu Erxi as he...
