I'm extremely interested in Nen abilities.

Because none of the cases reported in the newspapers involving vegetative patients similar to his lover who were miraculously cured required multiple treatments or took more than half a day, Batra had long anticipated the speed of Jingyang and his team's treatment.

Jingyang smiled and said, "Maybe soon, maybe very slowly."

"I understand, I understand." Batra nodded. Actually, he was quite happy. All he wanted was payment. If he could get the money quickly and save his lover, why would he have to suffer these past few years? He'd go get the money as soon as he left this door! He'd send a lot of money!

Before closing the door, the attending physician glanced dejectedly at the ghastly tiger and gray sparrow left in the room. If these two can stay, why can't I?

Click... The ward door closed.

Wu Er circled around twice and then lay down to the side. The rock sparrow quite consciously landed on the tiger's head and rubbed its feathers with its toes.

Bisky asked, "So, how are you going to treat it? Your 'Nine Yang' treatment, can it even cure a vegetative state?" She wasn't testing her, but purely curious. "Diseases involving the brain are very complex..."

"Treatment? What treatment do you mean? How would I know how to treat someone? Do you really think I'm a doctor?"

Jing Yang stepped forward, lifted one side of the blanket, and grabbed the plant-like woman's right hand. With a flick of his wrist, a bubble detached from his aura, revealing a hair-sized substance inside that twisted into a pentagram pattern.

Seeing this, Xiao Di thought to herself that in the past, Jing Yang would need to prepare a strand of hair or take a drop of blood in advance to serve as the medium for this "pentagram". However, since Jing Yang's materialization talent has been continuously improved, he can now create a pentagram "hair strand" out of thin air...

The bubble landed in the plant woman's palm and burst with a snap, leaving behind a tiny, rose-gold pentagram pattern.

"Hmm, and then?" Bisky stood there thoughtfully, when she saw Jing Yang yank the vegetative woman off the hospital bed, roughly turn her around so that her back was to him, and then... and then the guy very roughly slapped the vegetative woman on the back of the head.

*Plop*

It was as if a ripe watermelon had been smashed into a pulp of juice with the force of a blow from afar, yet the rind remained intact. Bisky could almost hear the sound of the girl's skull cracking, and the inexplicable shaking inside...

Bisky focused her eyes and ears, maximizing her vision and hearing. With a focused and careful observation, she indeed discovered the anomaly. After Jingyang smashed the watermelon with his palm, the energy in the girl's head fluctuated violently, as if time had reversed or matter had returned to its place, rapidly reorganizing, just like when it was destroyed. Bisky could also faintly hear the various subtle sounds of the various tissues in the skull repairing and reconnecting, and the skull being pieced together and restored.

Jing Yang wasn't idle either. Worried that the root of the illness hadn't been completely eradicated, he moved his fingers swiftly, pressing down along the spine of the vegetative woman's back, from the cervical vertebrae to the coccyx, striking her more than a dozen times, completely shattering her...

After doing all this, Jingyang threw the plant-like woman back, covered her with the blanket again, and thought, "Hmm, she's not dirty. My skills have improved!"

Xiao Di remained calm, but Bisky couldn't help but grimace. This kid really hadn't mislabeled himself; this bizarre so-called treatment, even if intended as a benevolent act, was utterly chaotic! Weren't you afraid of inflicting unbearable pain on the young girl?! Even though she was in a vegetative state, she might still be capable of feeling...

"Compared to Auntie, how would you rate her?" Jingyang clapped his hands, put his hands on his hips, and asked with a smile.

"This must be your Manipulation-type Nen ability, right?" Bisky nodded. "It has a powerful healing effect... It seems that the so-called 'Nine Suns' that you developed on the Enhancement side is derived from this."

Jingyang chuckled, "Alright, let's just wait now."

"Should we wait for her to heal herself?" Bisky asked.

"Wait until the benevolent heart of the great philanthropist Ba is fully realized..."

Bisky: "..."

Jingyang said to Wu Er, who was lying idly on the ground, "Entangle him!"

The star mark on Wu Er's body immediately activated, as if by muscle memory, instantly stabilizing the floating energy around him. Jing Yang then commanded, "Activate!" Wu Er immediately activated its materialization attribute, attempting to transform its physical body into a tiger-skin skirt as Jing Yang had instructed.

The flexibility of his manipulation is virtually limitless, the range of his perception is extremely vast, and he even possesses a self-healing characteristic that points directly to the essence of life, leaving almost no room for improvement... Bisky watched Jing Yang hone his skills against the Moon Tiger and silently thought to herself that this child's innate talent in manipulation might already be at, or at least infinitely close to, the extreme of the attribute circle...

"Oh dear, you're so clumsy. Is it really that difficult? I don't believe it—hmm?" Jing Yang was scratching his head when suddenly an idea struck him. Looking at the tiger that could skillfully perform the Entangling, Absolute, and Training techniques under his command, he said, "That's right. You don't need to know how. I'll possess you, figure it out myself, and then I can command you in return."

Chapter 224 Who Wanted the Bicycle?

A certain prince, no more cultured than Wu Zetian, once said, "Studying? Study my ass!"

It doesn't matter if your brain can't learn it; you can just memorize it with your body.

Animals are also living beings, and the energy of life is qi. Wu Er himself certainly has qi. Every time Jing Yang possesses and manipulates it and Yan Que, even if it is not intentional, he will always subconsciously use the four elements of thought—entanglement, severance, and condensation. These are the ones he uses the most, and he uses them quite often.

When Jingyang possesses them, he uses their bodies to plant stars on others, which undoubtedly requires skill.

Once or twice wouldn't be a big deal; Wu Er and Yan Que might not feel anything. But being possessed, manipulated, and separated by Jing Yang repeatedly, these experiences of using Qi became like muscle memory, remaining in their bodies. Not only could they successfully reproduce the commands Jing Yang gave through the star marker, but they could also imitate them by feeling in their daily lives. At least the most basic binding technique was no problem for them.

Thinking of this, Jingyang opened the Dying Will Panel and took a look. His Conjuration aptitude had reached 97.2%, which was not much different from Shizuku's 100%, a natural Conjuration Nen user!

Just do it!

Jing Yang activated the star mark under Wu Er's abdomen and initiated the first operation mode. In just one thought, he possessed Wu Er's body and saw his own physical body sitting opposite him through the eyes of the Can Yue Hu.

"Ugh..." The woman in the vegetative state on the hospital bed let out a low moan filled with pain, and she was about to wake up.

“I said stop,” Jingyang said, turning around. “The person who will redeem you hasn’t arrived yet. Please go back to sleep for a while longer.”

At the command, the tiny rose-gold star in the woman's palm on the hospital bed trembled slightly, and she uncontrollably began to seek the feeling of sleep. The residual memory of her brain and spine being crushed flashed by, as if activating the body's self-protection mechanism. She ignored it and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

"Redemption?" Bisky chuckled slyly from the side, "You're quite self-aware of your actions."

Jingyang chuckled, "What are you saying, Grandma..."

Before he could finish speaking, he had already been punched and sent flying.

The ward door was immediately pushed open, and Juezi Jue La and the bodyguard captain looked at Jing Yang in confusion. "You're just trying to get treatment, how did you end up stuck against the wall?" Juezi Jue La glanced at Xiao Di, who seemed unaffected, and Bisky, who was sitting quietly reading a book, sweat beading on her forehead. "This is…" The bodyguard captain was especially confused.

"It's nothing." Jing Yang slid down from the wall, straightened the hem of his coat, adjusted his sleeves, and nodded to the two people outside the door. "Everything is fine. The treatment went smoothly. Wait for good news."

The bodyguard captain, still somewhat skeptical, went out again with Juezi Jue La.

Jingyang sat back down and said to Bi Siji, "Next time, next time I'll definitely be able to avoid it!"

Bisky chuckled, looking thoughtfully at the tiger still in its cultivation—so that's how it is. When he possesses and controls the tiger, the possessed consciousness relies entirely on the tiger's brain for thought, thus achieving true multitasking. The main body acts as usual, and the possessed tiger's split consciousness is not disturbed...

Following this line of reasoning, if this child were willing, the number of targets he could manipulate would probably be limitless...

Nen abilities reflect a person's true inner self. This child possesses such Nen abilities, yet he hasn't endlessly turned everyone he encounters into his puppets, showing that although he mocks his confused stance, he is ultimately kind... and he himself may not even realize this, unaware of the unimaginable destructive power he could possess if he were to commit evil...

Like a pure and flawless gem, it lies obscured between pure white and pure black, surrounded by an ambiguous gray mist.

It's dangerous, but it's also beautiful.

Bisky smiled contentedly, glancing at Little Drop, who was idly taking a chessboard out of the vacuum cleaner and entertaining herself. This little girl was just like that; her heart, too, existed in a blurred, ambiguous middle ground…

I really want to lead them both astray, so that I can unleash their true, vast potential...

……

"Imagine this tiger paw as an empty, simple piece of tiger skin..."

"Jing Wu Er" and the original Jing Yang stared intently at the raised white glove. As long as "my thought power" is strong enough, the thoughts reflected in the heart will respond. Moreover, this is a transformation into a tiger skin, not a transformation into a Gundam. Wu Er's body is a tiger, so if he wants to transform into the tiger skin that he "lives with day and night", the difficulty should be very low.

pat.

"Jing Wu Er" felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and he could see nothing. Of course, through his own eyes, he speechlessly discovered that, under his will to "transform into tiger skin, transform into tiger skin, transform into tiger skin...", all the energy in Wu Er's body suddenly surged to his head, and the tiger's head actually shrank and shriveled up, turning into a tattered sack-like tiger skin hanging around his neck, swaying slightly...

Little Di was drawn to the tiger's attention and crawled over on all fours to sit cross-legged. She reached out and lifted the "tiger head skin cover" off the tiger's neck. There, two tiger features that looked like they had been two-dimensional were on the front of the "head cover," and their eyes were moving vividly.

"This can be considered... barely successful... halfway?" Jingyang said uncertainly.

...Bisky glanced at it, speechless. What the hell is this training speed?! Are you sure you're a manipulator-type Nen user?

Xiao Di glanced at the "tiger-skin headgear" in her hand and commented, "You can see the surging of illusory energy without even needing to condense it. In terms of the cultivation of realism, it won't be higher than the second level..."

Just then, there was a few loud knocks in the ward. It was Batra coming to deliver money—oh no, Batra came to see his girlfriend.

"Jingwu II" shook his head. The empty "headgear" was already unpredictable, and with fluctuating aura, it quickly filled up like an inflated balloon after a couple of shakes, returning to its original shape.

The old man looked at the woman on the hospital bed who seemed to have changed little as soon as he entered the room. "She..."

“You…” Jing Yang remained seated on the ground, looking at the old rich man in the same tone.

Batra took an exquisite black and gold box from his pocket, turned it upside down, and opened it in front of Jing Yang, revealing a matching black and gold bank card inside. "It's the same PIN. There are 8000 billion Jenny in it. I'm sorry, this is all the cash we can raise right now. We also have many fixed assets that will require a lot of time to process..."

This is true love!

Not only was Jing Yang filled with awe, but the bodyguard captain who followed him into the ward was also greatly shocked. Juezi Juela almost had tears in his eyes. He took a few deep breaths to calm down, but his eyes were still fixed on Jing Yang's outstretched hand. He calmly accepted the bank card offered by Batra and snapped the black gold box shut, which made Juezi Juela's heart tremble.

Jing Yang leaned over to Xiao Di and whispered something to her, handing her the black and gold box. He planned to find a moment to stuff it directly into her vacuum cleaner. 8000 billion! Even though Jing Yang had already achieved financial freedom after experiencing the Sky Arena, he still had to treasure it.

“8000 billion, there’s a place not far from the door, you can check it anytime…” Batra thought something was wrong and nervously added, “What exactly is my wife’s situation…”

"Greed Island?" Jing Yang suddenly raised his head.

Just as Xiao Di was looking on with a puzzled expression, Jing Yang scolded her, "What Greed Island? Who wants Greed Island! Isn't 8000 billion enough? Don't be too greedy, young lady... Don't think that just because Batra is rich, he has everything!"

"Wait! Greed Island, I do have it!" Batra hurriedly said, "I've already collected a total of 30 Greed Island game consoles. As soon as my lover wakes up, I'll offer all 30 to him with both hands, as a token of my appreciation..."

"You even have this? Oh, why are you being so polite!" Jing Yang waved his hand. "Alright, she's already awake."

Bisky nodded in satisfaction. "You didn't stop moving when you saw 8000 billion, as long as you remember the important business!"

Chapter 225 My family is quite big

Jing Yang waved his hand, and the woman in the vegetative state on the hospital bed quickly twitched her eyelids, opening her eyes for the first time in many years.

Anyway, with the starred self-healing ability as a backup, there's no need to worry about not opening your eyes for a long time or not being able to adapt to the light. Even if your eyeballs are gouged out, they can be restored, so what's there to be afraid of? Just open them, open them wide!

Overjoyed, Batra burst into tears and rushed over, kneeling beside the hospital bed and holding the woman's hand tightly with tears in his eyes.

The latter was bewildered for a moment, staring at him for a long time, and gradually remembered what had happened before she fell asleep. She remembered that she had used her savings to buy her boyfriend, Batra, a gift to commemorate the start of their relationship, but then, while crossing the street...

The two held hands, looked at each other with tears in their eyes, embraced and wept bitterly, expressing their overwhelming gratitude to Jingyang without mentioning it.

Jing Yang led everyone away from the ward temporarily, looking thoughtful. Suddenly, he asked, "Bisky, does the so-called soul exist?"

The question of the soul is one of the themes of the Chimera Ant arc in the manga.

After being killed by Neferpitou, Kate was reincarnated due to a mysterious Nen ability of his own, which can be said to be a second life.

After the Chimera Ant Queen eats a human, she lays eggs. Many of the hatched Chimera Ant soldiers carry memories of their "previous" human days and therefore believe themselves to be the reincarnation of that human. Not only ordinary ant soldiers, but even the Ant King Meruem, due to his striking resemblance to the professional hunter Pockel who was harmed by the Chimera Ants, is considered by many to be the reincarnation of Pockel.

In his previous life, Jingyang quite agreed with this conjecture. The reason was simple: the Chimera Ant Queen was carrying twins, and the female fetus, who almost died, was the reincarnation of Kite, who was killed by Neferpitou. So, the male fetus was also the reincarnation of another human hunter. What was wrong with that?

So the question arises: does the soul actually exist?

This is a crucial concept to understand. After all, Kurapika, the Akatsuki's chief steward, developed his sixth Nen ability, "Resurrection," specifically for the purpose of "trading one life for another" to resurrect his deceased clansmen. If souls exist, and the souls of his clansmen have already vanished, then even if he later has the opportunity to set foot on the Dark Continent, obtain Nitrome, and perform "Resurrection," will those resurrected still be his true clansmen? Wouldn't they just make a grand entrance in the very first volume of Fullmetal Alchemist? That would be too sinister!

Upon hearing this, Bisky knew that the child's confusion stemmed from the experience of the woman crying in the house. "You were the one who utterly destroyed her brain and nervous system and then restored her, and now she's perfectly fine, even with all her memories intact, and you're the one wondering about it?"

She gestured for Jingyang Xiaodi to come a few steps closer and calmly said, "Whether the soul exists or not depends on which area you hope to find the answer from."

"What fields are included?" Xiao Di asked curiously.

“Of course, it’s the field of natural sciences and the field of Nen users,” Bisky said. “Of course, as times change, in the distant future, the latter may be encompassed by the former, but for now, the two are still quite different.”

Jing Yang nodded. "What do scientists say, and what do Nen users say?"

Bisky said, "The scientific community doesn't even know what a vegetative state is, so how could they possibly explain anything about souls to you? As a Nen user, my answer is—"
