Qi Tian did this with great ease, as if he had done it countless times.
It took him only a dozen breaths to apply the medicinal paste to all the parts he had just diagnosed as damaged.
"Did you break my body by doing some experiment?" Compared to Qi Tian, Ye Chen was much calmer, quietly watching Qi Tian work on him.
"My ointment guarantees you'll recover from your bodily damage within a day. Don't worry, I'm here to use you for an experiment, not to ruin you." Qi Tian finished his task, clapped his hands, and looked at Ye Chen with great satisfaction, saying, "You're indeed a very good choice."
Ye Chen looked at Qi Tian. "I should be able to move around, right?"
"Yes, your body damage is only to muscles and skin, and it hasn't reached the joints. With this specially made ointment and your spiritual energy to repair your body, you'll definitely recover within a day," Qi Tian said after checking Ye Chen's body again.
"That's good then."
Ye Chen was very calm now. He felt the spiritual energy within him and asked, "I felt that the last stimulation didn't improve my strength."
"You are already in the Mingxin realm. The transition from Mingxin to Shenjing naturally has a process, and you are currently undergoing this process. I'm only accelerating it, but I can't let you skip it," Qi Tian said, squeezing Ye Chen's shoulder. His muscle was too firm.
"When all the true qi in your body has transformed into spiritual energy, and your Dantian is filled, and you can use the spiritual energy within you smoothly, then you will have truly entered the Shenjing realm."
Hearing Qi Tian's explanation, Ye Chen's eyes lit up.
He wondered why he didn't feel any significant leap in power. So that was it.
He felt it again and indeed, the innate true qi that had previously occupied his Dantian had begun to transform into spiritual energy.
If the true qi in his body was like a vast ocean before, endlessly flowing, then his current spiritual energy was like a small pond, a tiny area.
But the spiritual energy in that small pond was capable of engulfing that vast ocean.
Was this the so-called qualitative leap?
"Alright, I'll come back for you in a day. Find a place to rest for now." With that, Qi Tian left directly.
He came and went in a hurry; Ye Chen didn't even have time to speak before the person disappeared.
Feeling the coolness on his body, he shook his head and began to walk back.
He would report back to Brother Xiao when he returned.
The electrical stimulation earlier had been so strong in some areas that it had left scorched marks on Ye Chen's skin.
However, with the application of the ointment and the nourishment of his spiritual energy, new flesh began to grow on the scorched areas before he had walked far.
Ye Chen was now full of confidence. Even if people from the Misty Immortal Palace went to deal with the冥医 (Ming Yi - Nether Doctor) at this moment, he was sure that he could help if he participated in the battle.
When he returned to Lin Xiao's side, he recounted everything that had just happened to Lin Xiao.
"What did you say?"
Lin Xiao stared at Ye Chen eerily, then suddenly pulled up Ye Chen's shirt and looked at his body. "He improved your strength just like that?"
"Yes... Brother Xiao, why do you all like to take off my clothes directly?"
