Chapter 334 Studying medicine can't save the world
Waterfalls, sea of ​​clouds.

The zither's melodious strains seem to mirror the unfathomable thoughts of its owner. The owner yearns to find solace in nature and glimpse the Dao, yet cannot forget the beauty of the person in their heart. Thus, tossing and turning, the owner plucks the strings, letting out a long, mournful sigh.

Miss Sun turned her head and glanced at her best friend not far behind her, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "What a tragedy."

Why bother cultivating the path of detachment? Now you've reaped what you sowed.
Being Zhuangzi isn't easy.

The secret methods of Miaozhendao are so difficult to master, requiring extremely high levels of understanding and mental fortitude. You're clearly a peerless enchantress, yet you insist on trying to be a pure white lotus rising from the mud. Now let's see what you do.

Zhuangzi's "no self, no merit, no fame," and the pursuit of an absolutely free state of mind, is what we call "wandering freely." Is this something that ordinary people can achieve?
The perfect man has no self, the divine man has no merit, and the sage has no name.

The lineage of Miaozhen Dao has been passed down for thousands of years, and very few people have been able to attain enlightenment through it. The threshold for attaining enlightenment is among the most difficult of all lineages.

Heaven and earth were born with me, and all things are one with me.

Forgetting emotions to reach the point of passion.

Miss Sun also practiced the secret methods of Miaozhendao, but only to improve her state of mind and comprehend Zhuangzi's thoughts. She did not study it as deeply as the Jade-Faced Lady. Moreover, the Jade-Faced Lady was a latecomer to the path of cultivation, and the secret methods of Miaozhendao were passed down to her by her mother.

The Jade-Faced Lady is currently stuck in the process of forgetting emotions and entering the Dao. Each subsequent realm is more difficult than the last. As for the saying "As long as saints live, great thieves will never cease," she probably has no hope of ever achieving that in her lifetime.

“If you continue like this, you will never achieve harmony between man and nature,” Miss Sun sighed softly.

Heaven and earth and I were born together.

This step cannot be solved simply by finding solace in nature.

All things are one with me.

Given the Jade-Faced Lady's current state of mind, considering everything to be nothing more than a fart, her chances of even reaching the Great Perfection of the Dao Realm are extremely slim. The resurgence of her severed emotional ties has been binding her mind and spirit more and more tightly.

She's such a love-struck girl, why is she trying to learn the art of forgetting love?

Upon hearing Miss Sun's words, the Jade-Faced Lady's fingers trembled as she plucked the strings of her zither. She sighed softly, remaining silent as she gazed at the distant mountains, rivers, and sea of ​​clouds, closing her eyes to perceive the subtle relationship between heaven and earth and herself.

My best friend is right, she really does have a hard time achieving 'harmony between man and nature'.

If she wants to take another step forward, there is only one way: 'Fasting of the Mind' and 'Sitting in Oblivion'. However, the requirements for comprehending the profound art of Sitting in Oblivion are extremely high. If she fails, she will never be able to attain enlightenment in this lifetime.

Miss Sun turned to look at her best friend, who looked conflicted, shook her head and sighed softly, then focused on grinding the medicine.

She is a doctor, and as a healer, she must be compassionate and empathetic.

As for why physicians still have the lineage of Miaozhendao, we have to ask the legendary physicians of the past. Perhaps having witnessed so much human suffering, physicians have their own ways of comprehending the secrets of Miaozhendao. Starting with the Medicine King Sun Simiao, each generation of Medicine King's successors would also practice martial arts based on Zhuangzi's teachings.

Miss Sun's light-footed movements, like the graceful steps of the Jade-Faced Lady, bear a striking resemblance to the carefree wanderings of the Jade-Faced Lady.

Cloudy and misty.

Just as Miss Sun was pounding medicine and the Jade-Faced Lady was playing the zither, the sound of sleeves brushing through the air came from the cliff face on one side of the precipice.

he came.

The man came up too.

For some reason, the Jade-Faced Lady looked a little nervous, and her hand trembled slightly as she plucked the strings, causing her to play off-key. This made Miss Sun cover her mouth and chuckle, as she loved seeing her best friend make a fool of herself.

A handsome and dashing figure appeared on the side of the cliff.

Duncan turned and glanced at the Jade-Faced Lady playing the zither by the waterfall. His gaze was as calm as still water, as if he were looking at a former girlfriend with whom he had only a casual relationship. This gaze made the Jade-Faced Lady feel a pang of pain in her heart.

The Jade-Faced Lady wants to comprehend the Dao of Forgetfulness, so Duncan cannot take the initiative to get close to her, lest he ruin her aspiration to enter the Dao.

He walked directly in the direction of Miss Sun.

"Why is he coming this way?" Miss Sun was instantly flustered, and the sound of her pounding medicine became chaotic and out of rhythm.

Miss Sun glanced back at her best friend with a guilty conscience, only to see her looking down at the waterfall below the cliff, silent.

Duncan stopped in his tracks.

He stood less than a foot away from Miss Sun, gazing at the distant valley. The two stood together, one open-minded and unrestrained, the other gentle and charming. Their appearances and temperaments were both outstanding. At first glance, they looked like a pair of golden boys and jade girls, like a divine couple living in a secluded paradise.

Miss Sun seemed to sense a subtle atmosphere, and the sound of pounding medicine completely broke down, her breathing becoming slightly rapid.

She felt very guilty, especially since her best friend was playing the zither next to her.

"What's the matter, sir?"

Miss Sun raised her head, her breath unsteady, her eyes darting around, her voice weak, and she would occasionally steal a glance at the Jade-Faced Lady in the distance.

Duncan withdrew his gaze from the distant valley, his deep eyes fixed on the beautiful woman before him, who resembled a jade rabbit pounding medicine. He sighed softly and said, "When I first met Miss Sun, I felt that you must be a person who is indifferent to fame and fortune, just like a secluded orchid in a valley, peerless and independent."

Upon hearing this, Miss Sun blushed instantly.

The Jade-Faced Lady's slender fingers, which were plucking the strings of the zither, came to an abrupt halt. She turned her head in astonishment, looked at Duncan, and then at her best friend.

What is going on?
Miss Sun blushed deeply, unsure of what to say. Her heart pounded so hard she felt like jumping off a cliff right then and there.

"The young lady is indifferent to fame and fortune, yet she possesses a kind and compassionate heart."

"Of noble character".

"This is a rare occurrence in my life."

Duncan gazed at Miss Sun before him with a very serious expression and slowly said, "I did not want to disturb your peace, but the world is full of suffering, and you have the ability to save lives with your skillful hands and kind heart."

The man in front of him raised his hand.

A pair of deep, starry eyes gazed at Miss Sun beside him with a very solemn expression. His serious demeanor gradually calmed Miss Sun down. As if sensing something, she slowly stood up and stood side by side with the man beside her.

Duncan gazed at the stunningly beautiful woman before him, a woman as serene and untouched as a solitary orchid in a secluded valley, seemingly untouched by fame or fortune, and said slowly and deliberately, "But studying medicine cannot save the world!"

Would you be willing to lend me a hand?

With her mastery of the strengths of Medicine King Valley, Hundred Flowers Valley, and Miaozhen Dao, and her status as a descendant of the Medicine King, if Duncan were to offer his full assistance, he could potentially secure the birth of the medical lineage from Hundred Flowers Valley and Medicine King Valley.

Studying medicine cannot save everyone in the world.

Miss Sun pondered Duncan's words, remaining silent for a long time. After an unknown amount of time, she slowly extended her slender hand and placed it in Duncan's palm, bowing gracefully and saying, "I am willing to lend you a helping hand, young master!"

How can one be preoccupied with personal feelings when undertaking great tasks?

She thought wrong.

Even the Jade-Faced Lady was mistaken.

Duncan gazed at the stunning beauty before him, nodded slowly, and then walked on the wind, stepping directly on the air, creating ripples in the waterfall, and quickly disappeared on the other side of the cliff and sea of ​​clouds.

The string snapped.

The Jade-Faced Lady could no longer maintain her composure; she stared blankly at the broken strings of the zither.

She should have been the one to forget her emotions and enter the Dao, but why did it seem that the man emerged from his despair much faster? He was earnestly and practically doing great things, saving the world from suffering and restoring peace to the common people, while she herself was indulging in nature, seeking that ethereal thing, but instead, she could not obtain it, was trapped in her heart, and was restless and confused, making no progress at all.

next second.

What happened next was even more heartbreaking for the Jade-Faced Lady.

"Studying medicine...can't save the world..."

Miss Sun's long black hair danced wildly in the wind, her sleeves fluttering as she stood on the edge of the cliff, gazing at the sea of ​​clouds and waterfall. Her eyes were deep and thoughtful as she repeatedly pondered the words left behind by that man. Her aura grew stronger and stronger, and her innate true energy went berserk, as if resonating with some great Dao in the world. She was actually three feet off the ground, suspended on the cliff, with the rising waves of the sea of ​​clouds beneath her feet.

Exploring the realm of Taoism.

Miss Sun treads on a sea of ​​clouds, like a celestial being. With graceful steps, she soars through the air. Her eyes are deep and sorrowful, her expression gradually hardening as she sighs softly, "The world is in chaos."

"The common people are suffering."

"No matter how skilled a doctor is, it can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause."

"If a physician wants to heal the world and save people, he must leave the world, eradicate the world's intractable diseases, and restore peace to the world."

"Was this the same state of mind when Zhang Jiao, the Great Teacher of Virtue, traveled throughout the Nine Provinces, healing the hearts of all people?" — The Art of Ghosts!
—To command the wind and rain!
With a wave of her long sleeves, Miss Sun instantly comprehended the Ghost Path Scroll that Duncan had once given her.

Zhang Jiao was a witch doctor.

The earliest physicians were shamans. After the Spring and Autumn Period, shamans gradually differentiated into physicians and shamans. Bian Que can be considered one of the patriarchs of later physicians.

The sea of ​​clouds is rolling.

Like a demonic wind, it swept across a sea of ​​clouds nearly a hundred feet in circumference, the rising mist and fog reversed the waterfall, and the wind actually cut off a section of the waterfall's flow at their feet.

When Duncan subdued the Toad Taoist, he obtained several secret techniques from the Taiping Scripture. Duncan shared them without reservation, and many others also read them.

But to this day, only Miss Sun has managed to comprehend one of the ancient spells.

True essence returns to oneness.

In an instant, clouds gathered above Miss Sun's head, as if the Three Flowers were gathering at the top of her head. Although she was only cultivating the inheritance of the Wonderful True Path, she was able to condense the Three Flowers faster than the Jade-Faced Lady. Her essence, energy and spirit had already reached the Great Perfection of mortals. Without her own cultivation being sufficient, she directly broke through the gate of the Dao Realm.

Healers save lives.

Saving people is saving the world.

To save the world is to save humanity.

The unity of knowledge and action.

It can also lead to enlightenment.

Miss Sun's skirt fluttered in the wind, making her look like a fairy on water. With graceful steps, she seemed to be walking on clouds. She glanced at the Jade-Faced Lady from afar, made up her mind, nodded gently, and rode away on the wind.

Today she has broken through to the Dao realm.

Physicians should be born to save lives!
The legacy of Medicine King Valley and Hundred Flowers Valley rests entirely on her shoulders; it's time to let the world witness the skills of a physician.

If you don't understand, the doctor also knows a little about martial arts.

The Eight Methods of Life and Death, the Eight Gates of Life and Death.

Only by putting ourselves in a desperate situation can we find a way out. The world is already terminally ill, and all medical methods have been exhausted and are useless. Only by learning from Hua Tuo, splitting open the skull and scraping the bone to treat the wound, can there be a glimmer of hope.

At this moment, Miss Sun's imposing aura was as sharp as a scalpel gleaming with cold light.

The world is right there on the operating table.

She is a physician, and she has the compassion of a healer. She is a scalpel wielder, and she must personally cut out the festering sores and tumors of the world before she can heal them with medicine.

Duncan's single remark inspired a doctor to pursue medicine, something unprecedented in the last hundred years.

Miss Sun drifted away.

She plans to return to Medicine King Valley and Hundred Flowers Valley to gather the successors of medical families and discuss ways to save the world.

Since some members of the medical school have broken through to the Dao realm, then the medical school can now compete with all other schools of thought.

The nuns at Cihang Jingzhai dare to talk nonsense about world affairs; how could they, as legitimate heirs of medical families, not cure the world's intractable diseases?

Cliff, above a sea of ​​clouds.

Only the Jade-Faced Lady remained, bewildered in the wind, unsure of where her path to achieving oneness with the heavens lay.

She seemed to be one step ahead at first, but in reality, she was far behind.

The physician entered the Dao.

Miss Sun's appearance will surely shake the world's physicians. Since the Tang Dynasty, apart from the Medicine King Sun Simiao, the medical lineage has not produced a master who has reached the Dao realm for far too long.

Sun Simiao, the "King of Medicine," is said to be a descendant of Qu Yuan, a minister of the Chu state.

Although Miss Sun cultivated medical techniques, she also studied the three volumes of Li Sao, Jiu Ge, and Tian Wen. She passed on some of the secret techniques of the Jade-Faced Goddess. However, the secret techniques of the pre-Qin period were obscure and profound, and few people in the world could master them.

Having entered the Daoist path, Miss Sun has mastered all the techniques of fingering, acupuncture, and magical music.

Even against Lord Shanglu, Miss Sun is probably on par with him in every aspect except for her insufficient foundation of true essence. She can even use silver needles to seal acupoints and cut off meridians, so she can probably be slightly more restrained against Lord Shanglu.

In this world, cultivation at the Innate Realm emphasizes the foundation and arduous practice, while at the Dao Realm, it places greater emphasis on opportunities and sudden enlightenment.

The tide rises on the Qiantang River, and only today do I realize who I truly am.

The coast of the East China Sea.

A dashing rogue lay on horseback, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, letting the rickety horse take its course. A crimson gourd hung at his waist, and he would occasionally take a sip when he was thirsty or craving something sweet. The wine was as red as blood and extremely poisonous. After drinking it, even this wandering rogue would feel dizzy for a while, his face turning bright red.

strong enough.

This wine infused with demon cores is truly exceptional; perhaps only the medicinal wine made by Miss Sun using poison to fight poison can compare.

That day, he had a craving and secretly drank a little, for which Miss Sun complained for a long time.

"I recently found some nice things, so I'll give them to her."

Fu Jianhan felt a pang of longing when he thought of that jar of medicinal wine. He held Lu Zu's sword in his arms as if it were his most precious treasure. As if thinking of someone, he couldn't help but sigh, "Why did that brother of mine choose the Jade-Faced Lady?"

"If he were with Miss Sun, wouldn't they be a perfect couple?"

"Why bother wandering the world seeking an opportunity to enter the Tao?"

Pooh.

Enchantresses are all scourges.

A gentle woman like Miss Sun is clearly a virtuous wife and loving mother, and she certainly wouldn't hinder her brother from entering the path of enlightenment.

This wanderer has been traveling along the coast of the East China Sea and has recently gained some fame as a sword immortal.

In addition, with Lu Zu's sword, he could comprehend a wisp of sword intent in the sword every day, and he had already comprehended a set of pure Yang sword intent sword techniques, and his martial arts cultivation had greatly improved.

In the future, he might even enter the professional scene before Duncan.

In the past six months, Fu Jianhan has been wandering the world, slaying eleven demons and killing over a hundred villains. He even went alone to the East China Sea to kill a giant whale and help disaster victims, earning him the true name of a 'mad hero'.

A few days ago, I even met a Taoist master who deliberately befriended me. He was called Ling Su Dao Ren, a top expert in the Xuanmen sect, whose strength was probably even above mine.

"However, that person seems to have some ulterior motives."

Fu Jianhan had a pure heart and a sixth sense about people. He felt that the Taoist Lingsu might not have good intentions, so he quickly took his leave.

Upon returning from his travels, he plans to first go back to Baoxuan Cave Heaven for seclusion.

If it can be achieved, there is hope of entering the Dao.

Who would have thought that a little beggar who relied on the charity of many families and practiced various martial arts styles would one day find the opportunity to break through to the Dao realm?

"correct."

"I wonder if my brother has returned yet."

"I have already made some progress in my understanding of flying sword techniques, so I'll have a chance to exchange ideas with him."

Fu Jianhan traveled north, arriving in Shandong and other places. While helping others, he learned some flying sword techniques, which he now shares with everyone for discussion.

He also joined in the fun to search for the overseas fairy islands, but found nothing, only some rumors about dragons.

Legend has it that there was a real dragon in the East China Sea, which was subdued and suppressed beneath an island.

Fu Jianhan was alone, and although he was very brave, he didn't dare to go. He knew his own limitations.
