Shen Qing was a bit surprised. She didn't expect Jiang Zhiyun to have such a skill.
"You can seal Qingdai's cultivation base? But her cultivation is higher than ours. It might be quite difficult," Shen Qing said with some concern. After all, Qingdai's cultivation was at least at the God Transformation stage. There was a huge gap between the Golden Core stage and the God Transformation stage, like the distance between heaven and earth.
The defensive spells on a God Transformation cultivator would be enough to give them a hard time.
Jiang Zhiyun said in a deep voice, "I don't know if I can succeed, but I have to give it a try. I don't want her to lord it over others with her cultivation after she wakes up."
The cultivation of medical cultivators usually advanced slowly. Even Jiang Zhiyun herself had just reached the mid - Golden Core stage.
"Shen Qing, have you ever wondered why I'm not the direct disciple of any elder in the Green Wood Sect, but I can get involved in the core affairs of the sect and move freely on the inner - sect mountain peaks?"
Shen Qing shook her head. She really hadn't thought about it.
She originally thought that Jiang Zhiyun was an outstanding inner - sect disciple in the Green Wood Sect, so she received many preferential treatments. But now that she said so, there must be some hidden reason.
"My mother was the direct disciple of the previous sect master of the Green Wood Sect. She was famous as a miracle doctor in the mortal world. With just one needle, she could make those with blocked eye meridians see again and those with numb and trembling limbs recover."
"My mother knew the human acupoints like the back of her hand. If she hadn't been attached to the mortal world and exhausted her lifespan, the current sect master might have been someone else."
"As her daughter, I've naturally learned a thing or two."
After a moment of thought, Shen Qing understood what Jiang Zhiyun meant. "You mean you're going to use acupuncture to seal the meridians in Qingdai's body, thus sealing her cultivation base."
"But you're both medical cultivators. Can't Qingdai break the seal?"
Jiang Zhiyun sneered. "This is where my mother was amazing. The acupoints in the human body are complex and connected to various meridians. My mother knew even the conflicting meridians and acupoints clearly. I'll leave conflicting prohibitions on each conflicting acupoint."
"Each acupoint represents an element in the Five Elements. Qingdai has a Water spiritual root. While sealing her Water - related acupoints, I'll also seal one of her Earth - related acupoints and then leave a Wood - related prohibition on it. And I just happen to have a Wood spiritual root."
Afraid that Shen Qing wouldn't understand, Jiang Zhiyun explained it briefly in the simplest language.
Although Shen Qing barely understood, she still thought it would be very complicated to operate. She could only ask helplessly, "What can I do?"
Jiang Zhiyun took out suitable silver needles and examined them carefully in the sunlight. "When sealing the acupoints, a cultivator will unconsciously resist. With my cultivation, I'm not strong enough to fight against Qingdai's spiritual power. So I need you to help me suppress her!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Zhiyun stabbed a needle into one of Qingdai's acupoints forcefully.
Then, the unconscious Qingdai unconsciously circulated her spiritual power, trying to force out Jiang Zhiyun's silver needle.
Jiang Zhiyun first used her own spiritual power to resist. Shen Qing watched from the side and gradually became a bit nervous.
When Jiang Zhiyun was sweating profusely, she seized the opportunity and shouted at Shen Qing, "Now's the time! Quick, slap her!"
"Ah?" Shen Qing was stunned for a moment. Then, under Jiang Zhiyun's affirmative look, she raised her hand and slapped the sect master Qingdai hard.
Jiang Zhiyun still felt that her silver needle was being forced out bit by bit. She shouted again, "One isn't enough. Keep going!"
Shen Qing had no choice but to raise her hand again and slap the sect master Qingdai several times in a row.
Jiang Zhiyun felt that the resistance to the silver needle wasn't as strong. She immediately poured her spiritual power into Qingdai's body through the silver needle with her fingernail. Then she immediately took out another silver needle and stabbed it forcefully into the conflicting acupoint.
"Keep slapping!"
"Okay!"
The loud and clear slapping sounds attracted the attention of the disciples on the scene.
Some disciples couldn't bear to see their sect master being slapped without any dignity. They wanted to stop it, but they just stared blankly at Jiang Zhiyun, who was stabbing needles like a crazy person, and Shen Qing, who was slapping with the aura of a late - Nascent Soul cultivator. Then they shrank back timidly.
It was their sect master's own fault for not doing the right thing. This was all self - inflicted... self - inflicted...
The disciples shed tears silently and could only pray that Shen Qing and Jiang Zhiyun wouldn't take out their anger on them.
On the other side, Li Xian also came to Elder Lianshan. Senior Brother Wu had already moved Elder Lianshan and Elder Lianqiao together from the southeast corner of the formation.
Several junior sisters of Jiang Zhiyun examined the two elders from head to toe but still couldn't figure out the reason for their strange conditions.
"It's strange. Their eyes are dull, their limbs are stiff, and they also have intermittent twitching and bloodshot eyes. It seems like they're being controlled by some drug, but I don't smell any medicine on the two elders..."
"The meridians are functioning normally, and they still have vital signs. It doesn't seem like they've been refined by someone..."
"What on earth is the reason? I've checked all the acupoints three times. There are no signs of acupuncture, and it's not a drug. Then what is it??"
"Could it be that they've been cursed? But Senior Brother Wu is the best at cultivating gu worms, and he didn't sense any traces of gu worms either..."
Several disciples gathered around and discussed with distress.
Although Li Xian didn't understand medicine, he had also used his spiritual sense to check. There was nothing wrong with the two of them. If it weren't for the fact that they were standing there like puppets, they would look like normal people.
He took a step forward, intending to get closer to take a look. But when he moved, he found that he was still tightly holding the sword in his hand. He was holding it so tightly that his hand was trembling slightly.
Li Xian hesitated for a moment. Instead of using the cleaning spell, he took out his handkerchief and slowly wiped the sword in his hand, wiping off the light bloodstains bit by bit.
But when he wiped the bead on the sword hilt, Li Xian found that the bead had turned blood - red, as if it had absorbed Qingqing's blood.
Looking at this blood - red color, a slight pain appeared in the depths of Li Xian's sea of consciousness. Some memory fragments appeared intermittently, making him unable to distinguish between reality and illusion for a moment.
Li Xian covered his head, and a pained expression appeared on his face. The disciples of the Green Wood Sect noticed that something was wrong with Li Xian, but seeing his distorted face, no one dared to step forward to support him.
"Li Xian! It's you who killed your father! Go and put this needle on your father's head, and we'll all be free!"
In the memory, the beautiful but ferocious Xu Yanxi put a silver needle into Li Xian's hand. Then she pulled Li Xian and guided him to stab the silver needle into the head of a man with long hair, naked and covered in blood.
The young Li Xian couldn't struggle free. He could only be forced by Xu Yanxi to hold his hand, watching helplessly as the silver needle sank into the man's hair.
The young Li Xian in the memory cried and struggled but was unable to escape.
In reality, Li Xian, to everyone's astonishment, walked dazedly towards Elder Lianshan. Then he raised his hand and felt around on Elder Lianshan's head.
A long silver needle was pulled out from Elder Lianshan's head by Li Xian.
