The most secure job in Dajin

Chapter 321, Yin and Yang Flames

The middle-aged general demanded that Hua Changxi go to the Demon Suppression Army camp to treat patients, his tone quite forceful, which instantly aroused Hua Changxi's rebellious spirit.

Hua Changxi smiled indifferently: "General, I see you're not young anymore, and you're a Nascent Soul cultivator, how come you don't even know the most basic human decency?"

Seeing the middle-aged general's angry expression, Hua Changxi continued, "You came to me seeking medical help on your own initiative, which means you asked me for a favor. At the very least, you should give me the respect I deserve."

"I am not one of your soldiers. You have no right to order me around."

The middle-aged general frowned, thinking of his mission, and endured the open accusation from Hua Changxi, a girl even younger than his own daughter: "My attitude was wrong just now. I ask Peak Master Hua to come with me."

Hearing this, Hua Changxi laughed and looked at the middle-aged general: "Are you used to giving orders? Is that why you think everyone should listen to you?"

The middle-aged general, enraged by the question, suddenly raised his voice: "Peak Master Hua, I have already apologized, why are you still holding this grudge?"

The commotion immediately drew the attention of everyone around.

Hua Changxi's face turned completely cold. She still respected the Demon Suppression Army, but at this moment she was too lazy to give the middle-aged general any face.

"I am a doctor, and you are a patient. If you seek medical treatment from me, you must follow my rules."

"Listen up, I don't offer door-to-door treatment. If you want treatment, come to this stall."

The middle-aged general was both angry and shocked. Even disregarding the fact that he was a Nascent Soul cultivator, the mere mention of the Demon Suppression Army's name would draw considerable respect: "You..."

Hua Changxi ignored him and went straight to the consultation table where she had previously treated patients and sat down.

Actually, it's not that she can't make a trip to the Demon Suppression Army camp, the key is that she has to be willing.

If the middle-aged general had consulted her beforehand, given the severity of the patient's injuries, it wouldn't have been impossible for him to make the trip.

But the middle-aged general's attitude made her very uncomfortable.

She had to run over to him the moment he called.

I'm not a lapdog!

The middle-aged general watched as Hua Changxi sat down to treat other wounded patients, let out a heavy snort, and then turned and left angrily.

Hua Changxi glanced indifferently at his departing figure before focusing on treating the Core Formation cultivators who had lined up to receive patients.

At this moment, she discovered that although her observation, listening, questioning and palpation skills had only been upgraded to the fourth level, she could only 'see' the surface of the Nascent Soul of a Nascent Soul cultivator, but she could see the Golden Core of a Core Formation cultivator clearly inside and out.

Because of her improved 'eyesight', she discovered a significant problem during subsequent consultations.

Among the Core Formation cultivators who came seeking medical help, some had a faint layer of black flame covering their Golden Core.

A cultivator's golden core radiates spiritual light.

Before she reached the fourth level of the Observation, Auscultation, Inquiry and Palpation Technique, although she could clearly see the situation in her dantian, the golden core was suspended above her dantian. In addition, the injured people had all inhaled demonic energy, and the dantian was filled with demonic energy, so she could only see the location of the golden core.

She was unable to penetrate the spiritual light surrounding the golden core for in-depth investigation.

Previously, Hua Changxi had not noticed the black flames on the golden core under the cover of spiritual light, but now, the black flames were clearly visible to her.

Hua Changxi was all too familiar with black flames.

There was nothing else to it; she also had it in her body, and it had even seeped into her nascent soul, taking root in her heart.

It might be a coincidence if one or two Core Formation cultivators have black flames in their bodies, but if dozens or even hundreds of Core Formation cultivators do, then there is definitely a problem.

She ignited the black flames because she was ambushed by the Asura Sect, but what about these Core Formation cultivators?
Hua Changxi secretly observed the Core Formation cultivators whose Golden Cores were covered with black flames, and chose the one with the most serious injuries to test.

"I have suppressed the demonic energy within you. However, there is a problem with your golden core. If we don't find a way to resolve it, you may not be able to break through the core and form a nascent soul in the future."

Upon hearing this, the Core Formation cultivator who had come for treatment immediately changed his expression: "Peak Master Hua, what's wrong with my Golden Core?" Hua Changxi looked at him: "Your Golden Core is covered with a layer of aura that makes people very uncomfortable. In my perception, it's like a layer of flame. In addition, there are several cracks on your Golden Core."

Upon hearing this, the monk looked horrified and then entered a meditative state to examine his dantian.

Although cultivators can introspect their own dantian and have extremely accurate perception of their golden core, they cannot see through their own golden core like Hua Changxi.

The cultivator who received the treatment could 'see' the black flames on his golden core, but because the cracks on the golden core were too small and there were no obvious abnormalities, he did not notice them.

A moment later, the cultivator who had come for treatment opened his eyes: "Peak Master Hua, there are no cracks in my golden core?"

Hua Changxi looked at him, grabbed his wrist, and channeled spiritual energy along his spiritual root into his dantian, then continued to pour into his golden core, seeping into it along the cracks.

When external spiritual energy invaded his golden core, the cultivator immediately sensed the abnormality and looked at Hua Changxi with trepidation and anxiety: "Peak Master Hua, can the problem with my golden core be cured?"

Hua Changxi: "I need to know what exactly is wrong with your golden core first."

“I can understand that your Golden Core has cracks; it must be because you suffered some kind of severe injury. However, I don’t quite understand the layer of flames covering your Golden Core.”

Hua Changxi looked at him: "When the sudden change happened, you must have been very close to the epicenter of the explosion, right?"

The monk who was receiving treatment nodded.

Hua Changxi: "Do you know what the flames on your golden core are?"

The cultivator hesitated for a moment, then suddenly transmitted his voice to Hua Changxi: "Peak Master Hua, that layer of flame should be Yin Flame."

There was a pause.

"I was nearby when the weapon-refining workshop suddenly exploded. I saw someone holding a black jade lotus petal of a magic lamp and performing a spell."

"I was too close. After the explosion, that person was also blown away. The eerie flames on the black jade lotus petals shot out in all directions. I was just too unlucky and got hit by a wisp of it."

Upon hearing the telepathic message from the cultivator seeking treatment, Hua Changxi's eyes flickered incessantly. Was the person who destroyed the protective array of the Weapon Saint Palace from the Asura Sect?

"Peak Master Hua, is there any hope for me?"

Hua Changxi came to her senses and looked at the cultivator who was being treated: "I can't deal with that layer of Yin Flame. As for the crack on the Golden Core, it's not easy to repair. It will require some precious spiritual medicines."

"I'll give you a prescription; go and collect the medicinal herbs according to the prescription."

The cultivator who sought treatment took the prescription and, after confirming several times that as long as he collected all the spiritual herbs and refined the corresponding pills, he could repair the cracks on his golden core, he thanked them and turned to leave.

"next."

Hua Changxi took a sip of spiritual tea, preparing to treat the next injured patient, but found no one stepping forward. Looking up, she saw the cultivators queuing for medical treatment making way for her.

Then, the middle-aged general who had just appeared appeared in her line of sight, accompanied by a young-looking but white-haired Nascent Soul cultivator at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

The moment Hua Changxi saw the white-haired, youthful-looking cultivator, her eyes narrowed, and her expression became serious and solemn.

There was no other reason than that a flame was burning on the person's nascent soul heart.

However, the flame was not pure black, but rather a mixture of black and white.

The black flames and the white flames were clearly distinct from each other, yet intertwined.

Hua Changxi suddenly remembered Manager Leng and Jingle from the miscellaneous service hall. They had both told her that the black flame was also called the yin flame, and the white flame was also called the yang flame. The black and white flames were the yin and yang flames.

This was the first time she had ever seen a cultivator ignite both black and white flames simultaneously.
