When Ye Chen asked Li Yan to prepare, his demeanor was so casual, and his tone was so natural.

However, compared to Ye Chen's indifference, Li Yan felt somewhat embarrassed.

Ye Chen had treated her many times before, and Li Yan had long since become accustomed to it. But for some reason, she felt restrained this time.

"Hmm?" As Ye Chen straightened out the Golden Needle, he said to Li Yan, "Hurry up and get ready, I'm going to start."

"Oh!" Li Yan responded, her heart still unsettled for a long time.

Ye Chen held the Golden Needle in his hand, gently heating it over a flame. This was the Fire Needle technique from the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate, which dispelled cold and dampness, could harmonize vitality, cure terminal illnesses, and had the effect of bringing the dead back to life.

In the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate, there was also an Ice Needle technique, which used the power of extreme Yin to alleviate pain, a sure cure for inflammatory diseases, and it was miraculously effective for certain illnesses.

However, for Li Yan's current illness, only the Fire Needle was suitable as the Ice Needle didn't match her symptoms.

"Are you ready?" Ye Chen asked, needle in hand, as he looked at the female anchor.

"I'm ready!" After adjusting her state of mind, Li Yan let Ye Chen perform the acupuncture.

"I'm beginning the acupuncture now!"

Ye Chen infused her with True Qi, while directing it with the Golden Needle, his focus and seriousness unwavering.

However, the Thirteen Needles placed an immense strain on the body, and at this moment, Ye Chen was sweating profusely, which was quite alarming.

As the Golden Needle pierced one of Li Yan's acupoints, it initially felt as if she had been burned. But the intense heat soon turned to warmth, bringing a comfortable sensation that was hard to describe.

Ye Chen struggled to mobilize True Qi, executing the Fire Needle technique. The Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate represented the pinnacle of acupuncture techniques—and even Ye Chen had mastered only seven of the techniques, including Fire, Ice, Metal, Wood, and Heart Needles!

The Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate were profound and comprehensive, one of the highest medical achievements of the Ye Family's ancestors. Even Ye Chen, almost demonically talented, was not yet capable of fully mastering this mysterious and unpredictable method at this stage.

But his inability to safely master all thirteen needle techniques was not due to a limitation in talent. In fact, he had already comprehended the profound mysteries of the thirteen needles; it's just that his current realm was not high enough to employ them all yet.

The Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate served both to heal and to kill. Ye Chen's use of hidden weapons was divinely subtle; he could sever three fingers of a crocodile with a single coin, thanks to this enigmatic needle technique.

When one's power reached a certain realm, all techniques converged—whether martial arts or the medical path, one could enter the Dao.

Ye Chen was a combination of medicine and martial arts, thus he could find anyone's weak point to deliver a lethal blow, and he could also use Martial True Qi to bring the dead back to life.

"Whew!" Ye Chen exhaled softly, withdrawing the needle, his hand holding the needle trembling.

"Ye Chen, are you alright?" Li Yan asked with concern. "Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"

"What do I need a hospital for when I am the Divine Doctor?" Ye Chen smiled.

"Ye Chen, thank you!" Li Yan expressed her gratitude to Ye Chen. "You're hurt and still disregard your own depletion to treat me. Seeing how hard this was on you, I feel a bit embarrassed, and I truly appreciate your efforts!"

"It's okay. To undertake a person's request is to be loyal to that person's cause," Ye Chen replied, shaking his head with an air of righteousness.

Ye Chen was now greatly depleted, but with time and rest, he would soon recover. Moreover, transcending oneself in the Extreme Realm was also a method of cultivation.

If Ye Chen recovered, his combat strength would also break through, advancing even further!

Ps: Tomorrow, yes, tomorrow! Ten more chapters! That's right, ten chapters! The explosion of ten chapters all at once!

As tomorrow marks the day this book goes on sale, it means the book will begin charging, and as a result, some may give up on this book. Regardless, I thank you all for your support thus far!

This book has already offered nearly four hundred thousand words for free, and even among VIP books, it belongs to those that are put on sale later than most, having delayed charging to the maximum extent possible. I hope everyone can understand that after all, an author needs to survive.

Tomorrow, I will start charging for VIP access, and to be honest, I'm not sure how much support I will receive.

However, each chapter costs only a small amount of money, and a month of reading won't even amount to ten dollars. I still hope that friends who are able to will subscribe and support me. Thank you!

Authors need to make a living too. Without putting my work on a shelf and charging for it, I can't afford food.

Especially the long hours of monotonous writing, it takes a huge toll on my body. These past two months, I've been staying up every night, and even moving my cervical spine makes a cracking noise, which is honestly quite frightening.

In any case, I ask for everyone's understanding regarding the charging of chapters!

I also hope that readers will respect the labor of the author! Once again, I thank all my fellow readers for their support!

I have seen discussions among readers in the group chat, and I believe many readers understand and can accept this situation.

Thank you once again for your support.

Lastly, I would like to thank the thirty-plus brothers who supported me with their tips. It's your contributions that give me endless motivation and great encouragement! The ranking of tips can be found on the fan leaderboard, so I won't single out anyone for thanks here, but I will compile a list and post it in a separate chapter later.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Some readers know how to top up their accounts, but some do not, so let me briefly explain the process of topping up.

[About Topping Up]

Let me talk about the charging standards. According to the website's regulations, it is 5 cents per thousand words. I write more than 3,000 words per chapter, so that's one dollar and fifty cents per chapter.

10 chapters would cost just a bit more than a dollar.

There are six top-up methods:

1. Q-coin/Q-point top-up.[You need to convert Q-coins into book coins to use them.]

2. QQ Card top-up, see above for the method

3. Tenpay/Bank card top-up

4. Mobile top-up card (Note that it's a mobile top-up card, not a SIM card¬—they are different.)

5. Top up at a cybercafe counter

6. If you have Alipay, you can purchase QB from a reputable seller on Taobao and convert it into book coins to read.

[It should be noted that QB themselves cannot be used to read books. You need to convert them into book coins before you can read. Alternatively, you can also directly purchase book coins.][The steps for mobile top-up are as follows]

Go to QQ—Moments—Reading—click on "My" at the bottom right corner—then you can enter to top up, where various methods are available.
