Douluo: Law of Heaven and Earth

Chapter 1085 Long Treatment Time

Medical Department - Soul Master Medical Center.

Guided by the nurse in white, Davis and Zhu Zhuyun found Visa, who was looking through books related to human meridians.

As the little princess of the Heavenly Soul Kingdom, she came to Holy Soul Village to avoid a marriage alliance with the Heavenly Dou Empire. However, things didn't go as planned. The Heavenly Dou Empire brought about its own demise, leading to the Heavenly Soul Kingdom's complete independence and the end of its vassalage. She should return to her country.

But Vesa clearly preferred living in Holy Soul City and joined the Red Society's Medical Department. Besides researching medical topics with Bu Wu, Bu Liu, and others, he would also teach at the Red Society's newly established medical school to students who wanted to become doctors.

On weekends, if he has free time, he will come to this Soul Master Medical Center to take charge.

However, there are not many soul masters in Holy Soul City, and most soul masters are quite concerned about their reputation. Unless they suffer a fatal injury, they will not take the initiative to seek treatment, but will let their bodies recover on their own. Therefore, under normal circumstances, there are not many patients in the soul master medical clinic.

"somebody is coming?"

When Visa saw Davis and Zhu Zhuyun enter the room led by the nurse, she brought out chairs for them to sit down. At the same time, she caught a glimpse of the wounds on their wrists out of the corner of her eye and roughly determined their symptoms: they were unable to condense their soul power and had become useless.

This is extremely valuable research material!

With this thought in mind, Visa carefully examined the two men's appearances and felt they looked somewhat familiar. He then greedily asked, "The eldest prince of the Star Luo Empire?"

"Yes... hiss—"

Davis had just nodded when he felt a sharp pain in his waist. He then saw Zhu Zhuyun staring at him with a deep gaze. He quickly said, "No, wife, you've misunderstood. After I learned about our engagement, I never had any contact with other women. It wasn't that damned bastard!"

Zhu Zhuyun then released her grip on his waist and looked at Visa.

"Don't get me wrong, I only saw you guys at the Mainland Elite Tournament."

Visa glossed over the matter, had the two place their hands on the table, and began to take their pulses. After confirming his suspicions, he said, "Your problem is easily solved. Just follow the correct methods and recuperate for about a year."

"Really?"

Davis suspected that the young female doctor knew Qingzhu Zhu, otherwise why would she say that it would take about a year to recover?
"Reputable doctors don't lie."

Visa patiently explained, "You will become crippled because the meridians in your wrists are broken, which prevents your soul power from circulating. As a result, it will decrease with use and may even dissipate outwards."

Even if it heals and the meridians are reconnected, they become entangled and block the flow of soul power. This means that once you have exhausted your soul power, you will no longer be able to recover through meditation.

If the severed meridians can be reconnected before the wound on the wrist heals, the soul power can continue to circulate smoothly.

But precisely because the wound healed before the meridians could reconnect on their own, the scars on your wrists are so large, almost like little fleshy bumps... It must be because too many meridians became entangled during the healing process.”

Zhu Zhuyun inquired, "I've seen some Soul Masters who lost limbs, and after their wounds healed, they could continue to use Soul Power, only their Soul Power level decreased. What is the reason for this?"

"The decrease in soul power level is because after the limbs are severed, a portion of the meridians that circulate soul power are lost. This forces most of the meridians still existing in the body to form a completely new cycle as the wound heals, a process that further degrades physical fitness," Visa explained. Without a strong body, one naturally cannot withstand the corresponding immense soul power. "When a soul master's limbs heal, the meridians in their body re-establish a cycle, allowing them to continue cultivating and improve their soul power by enhancing their physical fitness. However, improving after losing a limb is much more difficult than for a fully healthy soul master."

It's fortunate, really. If you were in another place, there would be a simple and straightforward way to regain your strength.

That means cutting off your hands.

Davis was taken aback, puzzled: "Could it be that cutting off our hands will restore our soul power?"

"nature."

Visa chuckled and said, "The human body has a strong ability to recover. If a part of a limb is cut off, the body's instinct to survive will unleash its full potential and try its best to extend and connect the severed meridians during the healing process."

Thus, as long as everything goes smoothly, once the wounds from the severed limbs heal, one can naturally resume cultivation and restore soul power.

in contrast.

In your case, your tendons were severed, but your bones and blood vessels weren't broken. Your body's natural healing potential wasn't fully utilized. Because you are Soul Masters, you can control your Soul Power and know how to use it to stop the bleeding. However, you don't understand the body's structure and don't know how to unblock the blockage afterward. As a result, after the wound healed, the meridians in your wrist became tangled, like a pretzel, preventing Soul Power from flowing freely. Since you primarily rely on meditation for cultivation, you naturally cannot continue cultivating...

Well, that's not entirely accurate. Theoretically, as long as you keep tempering your physique, you can instinctively absorb the energy of heaven and earth into your body, but the efficiency will be extremely low.

Davis and Zhu Zhuyun roughly understood, and were further shocked by the research on the human body by Chi Hui.

"So, how should we treat it?"

Davis became excited.

“Cut open your wrists, cut off the excess flesh, and straighten out the veins that are tangled together at your wrists one by one.”

Visa said, “Don’t think I’m making this sound easy. It’s actually a meticulous job. After each meridian is straightened out, it needs to be observed regularly to prevent the soul power in your body from flowing to the wrong organs, which could weaken the corresponding organs and affect certain physiological functions.”

“The treatment can take longer.”

Davis tensed up and said hastily, "We absolutely cannot make a mistake!"

"Don't worry, there won't be any problem!"

Visa grinned, revealing a malicious smile. "Let's start next month."

After seeing Davis and Zhu Zhuyun off, the nurse who led them in asked, "Sister Davis, does the treatment really need to be that long? Just cut off the excess flesh, and then use your healing soul skill, or mine, to restore them to their original state. After all, there's no need to worry about bone misalignment; we just need to straighten their meridians."

“Lingling, these two are excellent research subjects. Naturally, we should take this opportunity to help you familiarize yourself with the structure of the human body’s meridians. How can we waste them?” Vesa said as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Ye Lingling was speechless, but she could only pretend she knew nothing afterward. After all, she was still a "prisoner," and only because of her good attitude and the fact that she had treated many Red Turban soldiers at the beginning of the war did she have the opportunity to work under Vesa...
