Chapter 103: Chapter 38 Dark Medical Skill

Next, Dongfang Yi continued to massage Gao Xin while introducing him to various acupoints.

"This is the Lingdao acupoint."

"For heartache, you don’t need to seek the Seeking Heart Medicine; once the Lingdao acupoint is cleared, the heart will naturally recover."

"Here, just press like this. Don’t be fooled by its location on the arm; this acupoint can ensure the smooth flow of qi and blood in the heart, specifically treating heart diseases and heartaches."

Dongfang Yi casually explained.

Gao Xin had an exceptional memory and remembered everything upon hearing it once.

"This is the Qu Pool acupoint."

"Using your thumb to flick the Qu Pool acupoint can prevent and treat pain in the shoulder, arm, and elbow."

"Furthermore, its five-element attribute is earth, which harmonizes internal organs. Therefore, it can clear the yang brightness, eliminate damp heat, regulate the qi and blood of the large intestine, and adjust the function of the large intestine..."

"Forget it, just remember it can remove toxins, purify the intestines, and detoxify for beauty."

Dongfang Yi couldn’t be bothered to explain too much and just gave a rough explanation.

Gao Xin nodded repeatedly. Pain relief and detoxification, too? Got it, got it.

"This is the Ji Quan acupoint."

"It can relieve symptoms like chest tightness, palpitations, and shortness of breath."

"Here, just pluck the Ji Quan acupoint like this. If you feel numbness in the hand and arm, that’s enough. It can promote blood circulation."

"If you’re feeling weak, the Ji Quan acupoint can lend strength to your heart. Whenever you feel listless, use this one."

Upon hearing this, Gao Xin’s eyes widened.

Loss of strength, the Ji Quan acupoint can lend strength to the heart?

It was as though he was catching a glimpse into some secret technique, eagerly absorbing this knowledge, like the striking of a grand bell that shook his heart.

Soon, he had learned them all. Thirty-six acupoints that could regulate and resolve all kinds of illnesses and pains in the body.

Gao Xin was thrilled, feeling an abundance of energy coursing through his body, and he sprang right up from the bed.

Dongfang Yi was surprised. "What are you doing?"

Gao Xin twisted his muscles and said, "Resting time is over; time for training."

Dongfang Yi scratched his head. "You’re just going to rest for ten minutes? Weren’t you feeling weak just now? So it was all an act, huh?"

Gao Xin flashed a wide smile. "I’m in good shape!"

Dongfang Yi removed the towel and checked his body; the medicine had been fully absorbed. The bruised areas had also dissipated and were now barely visible,

He exclaimed in surprise, "Your body really has amazing functions. I only massaged you for ten minutes, and the bruising has faded."

Gao Xin said, "My body’s hardware is at the human limit."

As he spoke, he started eating again, devouring the meat voraciously.

Dongfang Yi pouted. "Are you messing with me? With such strong bodily functions, you don’t need my massages. Just applying medicine and resting a bit would’ve been enough for you."

Gao Xin laughed. "Massaging the acupoints works faster."

"Thanks for teaching me the medical skills. From now on, I can take care of myself."

Dongfang Yi left behind the muscle-regenerating cream and white medicine, "Then, you do it yourself. I’m going back to rest."

"As for going to the intermediate game, let’s set it for two days later."

Having agreed on this, Dongfang Yi left.

Gao Xin trained alone and massaged himself whenever he was injured.

As long as there was food in his stomach, his physical strength recovered incredibly quickly. And external injuries could typically heal in just about ten minutes. This was three times stronger than Su Lei’s secret medicinal bath!

As the day went by, Gao Xin gained another few kilograms.

This was still less efficient than the first day. However, it had nothing to do with his training; it was mainly because of the food supply.

After all, he could only bulk up on muscle now, and the efficiency of eating grains and vegetables was much lower than that of eating meat.

Although he was constantly eating and he didn’t know how many times food had been delivered to him, he had to eat nine meals a day!

But Qiao Long, who had initially thumped his chest and told him to eat as he pleased, couldn’t help but have a word with Gao Xin, indicating that there were quotas for food supplies for each squad, based on a hundred people.

Since most squads were understaffed, they could ’eat for the absent.’

However, in these two days, Gao Xin had eaten so much that he had consumed all the surplus rations of Squad 09.

Of course, if he really wanted to eat, it wasn’t impossible. Squad 12 was left with only a handful of people, and their surplus ration amounted to ninety portions. They could ask Dongfang Yi, Meimei, and others to shift some from them.

But Gao Xin also felt that it wasn’t right to eat so excessively, and the Sinners’ Battalion had limited access to meat, with very few meat, eggs, and dairy.

Therefore, in the afternoon, Gao Xin took the time to see Luo Yan.

From Luo Yan, he took fifty pounds of beef, fifty pounds of fish, and a basket of eggs.

"Are you sure it’s okay? Luo Yan?" Gao Xin asked about his needs, and Luo Yan readily filled him with so much food, making him a little anxious.

This was Rousi’s stockpile of food, after all. Isn’t touching a woman’s food equivalent to courting death for someone who loves to eat?

But Luo Yan said, "Don’t worry, just say I ate it. She told me to eat as much as I want; the more I eat, the happier she is."

Gao Xin nodded, told him to take care of himself, and left with the bag carrying a hundred pounds of food, which would last him quite some time.

Back in the Sinner’s Battalion, Gao Xin continued his imaginary training.

Besides building muscle, he made slight improvements to his Dark Combat skills.

Imaginary battles with Silver Hand were no longer so nebulous, and the moves were derived from Peter.

It was akin to the combination of the fighting techniques of people like Peter and Luo Ban, along with the power and speed of Silver Hand.

It could be said that the more powerful battle techniques from Gao Xin’s memory he practiced, the stronger the opponents he could imagine for himself.

He even managed to imagine the Silver Hand wielding the Dark Combat Technique!

After getting severely beaten up by this illusion, Gao Xin lied in the bathtub that night and fell asleep from sheer mental exhaustion.

After two days of intense training, Gao Xin noticed that imaginary training consumed Heart Power.

Although his body could recover with False Words Cast Heart and Fake Medicine, his inner self felt very tired, as if something on the soul level had been depleted.

Gao Xin wasn’t surprised by this; according to his dark logic, it was a reasonable phenomenon.

False Words Cast Heart—what is ’words’? Essentially, it’s one’s own Heart Power, which is about shaping the body with one’s own little saint spirit, not external factors.

However, if external factors could be of help, that would be even better.

After all, in this world, physical laws are the most direct form of strength.

If Fake Medicine itself had some efficacy, or was rich in necessary substances, the consumption of Heart Power would be much smaller, and the effects of the Fake Medicine would be greatly amplified. It can be said to abandon wisdom and bring a hundredfold benefit to the people!

Conversely, having Su Lei casually concoct some medicinal baths to stimulate oneself was too fake; even though he could induce a response from his body using dark logical skills, the effort would be great and the effect minimal, with high consumption and low efficacy.

Fortunately, Heart Power is infinite.

Yes, infinite.

According to Gao Xin’s dark logic theory, there’s no such thing as running out of true Heart Power.

It’s just that the more you use, the greater the impact on your state of being, and reaching a certain point might lead to mental meltdown, mental breakdown, commonly known as entering a demonic state.

There are, however, ways to replenish it, such as through extensive sleep, which can restore it.

Sleep, this most important function of humans, consuming seven to eight hours a day, is not overrated for no reason.

It not only puts the brain into dormancy but also nourishes the consciousness.

If there’s no time to sleep, stimulating the "Extreme Spring" and "Spiritual Path" acupoints would also work; if the heart fails to find strength, the Extreme Spring acupoint can lend a helping hand to the heart.

Besides, there are several other acupoints for ’calming the mind and spirit’ and ’refreshing the mind and awakening the brain’ that can also connect directly to the spirit, using the body to reverse-stimulate and shape, cultivating the inner self.

This was the medical art that Gao Xin had learned from Dongfang Yi and had derived the Dark Medical Skill or Dark Acupuncture Technique from it, through the reasoning of dark logic.

For now, that was all he could do.

According to Gao Xin’s deduction, relying on the body’s reverse stimulation was far less effective than seeking inward.

To strengthen his Heart Power and recover faster, the next step was to imagine the appearance of the great saint spirit, to understand even a bit of Its state.

Indeed, although through a series of phenomena and proof he had ascertained the existence of the great saint spirit, he still didn’t know what form It actually took.

This was like how humanity had long been aware of black holes but had exerted a great deal of effort before finally being able to see one.

The next day.

Gao Xin overslept for a while before getting up to train.

He was energized and even took the time to visit Luo Yan, but this time Rousi was home, so there was no chance of contact.

So after returning to the Redemption Group, he found Liu Xu.

"Liu Xu, I need your help with something," he said.

"What is it, Brother? Just tell me," Liu Xu responded.

Gao Xin took Liu Xu to Rousi’s house and pointed to the chubby doll hanging there, saying, "You don’t need to play games, just watch this place every afternoon."

"As soon as you see this doll being taken away, and if I am at the group, notify me immediately," he instructed.

"Of course, Brother!" Liu Xu readily agreed.

By leaving the task of observing Rousi’s schedule to Liu Xu, Gao Xin could focus on his special training.

Finally, on the day he had agreed to enter the game, he reached a body weight of 100 kilograms.

His strength was exactly 300 kilograms, and his explosive punch had reached a whopping 500 kilograms, a half-ton force.

Even his height seemed to have increased, as if he had grown an additional two centimeters.

At the gathering, he looked spirited and imposing; with such a significant change in his physique, everyone was surprised.

"What’s going on? You seem to have grown taller? And you’ve bulked up a lot," Dongfang Yi poked his muscles.

Gao Xin smiled and said, "Dongfang Yi, you said that massaging the thirty-six acupoints often would reduce illnesses and make one look younger. It really works."

"I feel like I’ve gone through a second puberty," he joked.

Dongfang Yi rolled his eyes and said, "God, a second puberty."

"How did you bulk up so much in just a few days? Are you on steroids or something?" he asked.

Gao Xin spread his hands: "All thanks to Luo Yan, she made sure I ate well, and that’s how I got stronger."

Everyone was stunned. Just eating well was enough?

But indeed, Gao Xin had been eating voraciously every day, and no one knew why he had such an immense appetite.

As for this, Gao Xin just placed the credit on Luo Yan.

No one thought too much about it; after all, Rousi was infamously known for her obsession with fattening people up, and Luo Yan had ballooned to 250 pounds in a day under her care—quite a terrifying prospect.

In comparison, Gao Xin was nothing; presumably, Luo Yan had given him the fattening medication she didn’t want, which was just what Gao Xin needed to gain weight.

Add to that his rigorous, round-the-clock training, so his figure had become well-sculpted, with none of the flabbiness usually associated with rapid weight gain, and the added weight was mostly muscle.

Now standing at 182 cm tall and weighing 100 kilograms, Gao Xin’s musculature was well-proportioned, and his bearing had become more resolute.

Compared to when he first arrived on the island, he was a completely different person.
