Not waiting for him to react.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
A series of breaking air sounds rang out simultaneously. Zuo Li felt a numbness all over his body, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten golden needles had been inserted into him, all aimed at his vital acupuncture points.
Pop!
Closing the jade box, Qin Chen stretched lazily and yawned: "Alright."
"Alright?"
Zuo Li was stunned. That was fast? It had only been a few seconds; was he playing with him?
"Chen Shao, what do we do next?" Zuo Li asked blankly.
"No need to do anything, just wait."
"Wait?"
Zuo Li felt like he was about to faint. More than ten golden needles stuck in him, and that was it? Nothing else to do?
"Brother, this has been a problem for five years!"
So many alchemists in the royal capital couldn't solve his issue, and he just said it was over after inserting a few golden needles. This was too much.
Not to mention he took only a few seconds for the treatment; the key point was that he was injuring his meridians. What could casually stabbing a few acupuncture points solve?
For a moment, Zuo Li was almost in tears.
Forget it, forget it. It seemed he was just being naive.
After all, even if Chen Shao was impressive, he was just a teenager in his teens; what illnesses could he possibly treat?
He was just too foolish and naive.
"Chen Shao, thank you for your help. I will take my leave now."
With a dejected face, Zuo Li was just about to pull out the golden needles on his body and bow to say goodbye when he found he couldn't move at all.
The acupuncture points pierced by the golden needles were continuously numb, and he couldn't muster any strength at all.
"Oh no! What's happening to my body?"
He tried his utmost to pull out the golden needles, but he couldn't even lift his arms, terrified to the point of losing his soul.
What shocked him even more was that after the numbness, the true energy within him began to rampage uncontrollably. A large amount of true energy surged through his meridians, and that violent force was about to break through his meridians, causing waves of intense pain.
"Chen Shao, quickly pull the golden needles out of me!"
Zuo Li gritted his teeth and spoke, his forehead covered in cold sweat.
Right now, he couldn't even move; he could only beg Qin Chen.
"Pull them out." Qin Chen looked at Zuo Li in surprise, his brows slightly furrowed. "What are you doing? Your true energy is so violent; if this continues, your meridians could easily rupture, and you'd become a cripple."
Zuo Li almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, feeling furious.
"What am I doing?"
He couldn't believe that he was being asked why his true energy was so violent.
Damn, isn’t it all your fault? You stuck so many golden needles in me that I can't move, igniting the violent true energy in my body, and I’d be like this?
Zuo Li was in tears, wondering how he encountered such a pitiful person.
"I have already locked onto the most crucial acupuncture points on your body with the golden needles and actively activated your true energy. You just need to guide your true energy along the lines I've locked onto, and you can resolve the problems you've had before. But if you keep waiting like this, once the true energy tears apart your meridians, that would be serious."
"You intentionally ignited my true energy?"
Hearing this, Zuo Li was dumbfounded, his mouth agape.
"Otherwise, what did you think?"
At this moment, Zuo Li was completely speechless. He hurriedly guided his rampaging true energy, crashing along the acupuncture points where the golden needles were located.
Boom!
As soon as he guided it, a large amount of true energy roared instantly, wildly surging through his meridians, almost effortlessly without any hindrance.
At the same time, under his control, wherever the powerful true energy passed, his meridians not only didn't feel swollen but instead felt a wave of numbness.
In just a short while, all the true energy within Zuo Li was instantaneously guided, gathering together to form an unprecedented force.
