Chapter 183 Yuanhua's Rebirth, Ancestor Hua Tuo

Chapter 183 Yuanhua Reborn, Ancestor Hua Tuo

Ye Ru recited the Ten Essentials of Medicine in their entirety, and the surrounding sage families fell into a deathly silence, with only the sound of the floor cracking echoing around them.

At this moment, the vortex of talent behind Ye Ru had transformed into a river of talent. Although the vast amount of talent could not be absorbed, it was worlds apart from Hua Shengming's pool of talent.

"Talent flowing like a river... He's only one step away from achieving the 'Condensing Qi and Manifesting Sainthood' stage..."

The head of the Hua family swallowed hard, his face filled with shock.

There is a saying in the Hua family that as long as one's talent and wisdom flow like a river, then the sages and saints of the past will be able to reappear and continue the teachings that the sages and saints did not finish in the past.

Medical teachings are even more desirable to physicians than the teachings of sages, because if one can learn more about medical teachings, one might be able to save hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of lives!

"I don't believe it. Why is he right? I've saved thousands of people, yet I haven't gained the status and wealth I deserve, while he, with just a few words, can gain the recognition of the Sage of Medicine?"

Hua Shengming's courage trembled violently, and he vaguely sensed a collapse. He also understood that he was making a last-ditch effort.

Once his courage is broken, he will be a spineless scholar and will inevitably be expelled from the list of the Four Masters of the Capital.

Hua Xing's face turned extremely pale, his legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground.

He knew that this was the end for him. After this debate, the Hua family would definitely punish him severely, and might even bring up old grievances.

"A doctor's heart is full of compassion."

Ye Ru's four simple words were like a sharp sword, causing the river of talent to explode instantly. A beam of green light shot straight into the sky, and finally, like fireworks, it splashed out in all directions. Anyone touched by this green light felt as if they were bathed in a spring breeze, and their ailments were cured instantly.

Click!

A crisp sound rang out in Hua Shengming's lower abdomen, causing his face to turn pale, and finally he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Hua Mufeng and the head of the Hua Sheng family both gasped. A thousand rays of light scattered, a sage appeared, and perhaps what followed was…

However, just as everyone considered that possibility, the green light that was scattering everywhere in the sky suddenly began to converge towards the center.

Talent gathered, and an extremely ancient aura emanated from the vortex. Then, the vortex suddenly collapsed, and a figure dressed in green appeared in the sky.

boom!

The moment the old man appeared, all the members of the Hua family trembled with fear. A pressure emanating from their bloodline forced them all to kneel down.

"Yuanhua reborn, ancestor Hua Tuo!"

Many members of the Hua family stared at the old man with flushed faces; the figure in the sky seemed like a god.

"Unexpectedly, the Hua family, who have been trying to summon Hua Tuo for generations, have been summoned by a boy who is not even sixteen years old. This time, the Hua family has really lost face."

Some people's faces showed extreme shock, followed by exclamations of amazement.

"Hua Tuo, the surgical master..."

Ye Ru also raised his head, looked at the kind-faced Hua Tuo, and whispered.

"So this is the Hua Sheng family established by later generations... truly, each generation is worse than the last."

Hua Tuo glanced at the people of the Hua Sheng family, then shook his head and sighed, causing a hint of shame to appear on the face of the Hua family head.

The entire hall was silent. Hua Tuo, standing high above, looked down at Ye Ru as if a deity had descended.

“This young man is quite good. He has managed to summon my broken body again to teach and enlighten. In that case, I will give you the teachings that I have not left behind.”

"This is the Five Animal Frolics, a kind of exercise I developed by observing the movements of five animals: tiger, deer, bear, monkey, and crane. This exercise can cure diseases and maintain health, as well as enhance one's talents and energy. One can transform one's talents and energy into the five animals for self-defense, thus combining offense and defense."

Hua Tuo smiled slightly, and then began to perform the Five Animal Frolics. The people of the Hua family watched intently. Those members of the Hua family wanted to remember the Five Animal Frolics, but as soon as they memorized the deer's movements, they completely forgot the tiger's movements, and eventually almost completely forgot them.

However, those members of the Hua family who possessed Hua Tuo's bloodline practiced the Five Animal Frolics as if they were in their own water, quickly memorizing them and even being able to perform them in public.

As for Ye Ru, his cultivation progressed even faster. When he cultivated to the Tiger level, a sense of great strength emerged from his bones. When he cultivated to the Deer level, he felt light and agile. When he cultivated to the Bear level, he felt his skin was exceptionally hard. The Ape level made his mind more agile. When he cultivated to the Crane level, crane wings actually materialized behind him.

This scene left the Hua family members speechless; Ye Ru's cultivation speed was several times faster than theirs.

After completing a set of Five Animal Frolics, Ye Ru felt that his body had become slightly stronger, and his temperament had become increasingly refined.

'The Five Animal Frolics of the Confucian and Taoist Continent is completely different from the Five Animal Frolics of my previous life. Here, the Five Animal Frolics allows one to temporarily acquire the characteristics of five animals, thus achieving a harmonious blend of poetry and play, unleashing tremendous power.'

A look of joy appeared on Ye Ru's face. He had only wanted Hua Mufeng to be recognized as a member of the family again, but he had received such an unexpected surprise.

"This time, the Hua Sheng family's strength may have turned out to be a blessing in disguise, allowing them to stand out among the many Yao Sheng families."

"Yes, we've lost one of the Four Young Masters of the Capital, but what we've gained is the prosperity of the entire aristocratic family. This Ye Ru must be a genius."

The scholars and graduates of the Bian and Zhang families whispered among themselves, their words filled with envy and surprise at Ye Ru.

"Thank you for the performance, sir."

Overwhelmed with emotion, Ye Ru cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Hua Tuo.

"Alas, you are a promising young man. I am aware of all the things you have said in your discussion. Indeed, my Hua Sheng family was wrong in this matter. A gentleman understands righteousness, while a petty person understands profit. Physicians should not lose their integrity for the sake of wealth and glory. Physicians are one of the pillars of the nation and the foundation for ensuring the peace and well-being of the country. Therefore, I will have these Ten Essentials of Physician engraved on the medical stele I erected so that future generations can follow their example. Young man, do you think that is acceptable?"

Hua Tuo glanced at Hua Shengming; at this moment, Hua Xing's heart was filled with despair.

"Please do as you wish, sir. It would be my great honor to be able to pass this on to physicians as sacred teachings."

Ye Ru raised an eyebrow, then quickly clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"Thank you."

Hua Tuo waved his sleeve, and a beam of light appeared. The 160 words Ye Ru had spoken materialized and shot out, eventually merging into the light.

As the light faded, an ancient stele exuding a rustic aura appeared in the center of the discourse platform. The stele emanated a powerful aura that made everyone's hearts tremble.

The ten essentials of medicine mentioned by Ye Ru are also clearly engraved on the ancient stele.

The head of the Hua family was extremely excited, and then kowtowed three times heavily to Hua Tuo, murmuring as if in a daze:

"A sacred object... a medical stele?"
