Chapter 207 - Two Kinds Of Treatnt
A cultivator’s body was similar to that of a person who did not cultivate. Although these experts considered the ones who could not cultivate, or at least reach a certain level, as mortals, the fact was that none of them were immortals.
The Qi, which road their bodies, was capable of strengthening their cells, making it much more unlikely for them to beco sick, and at the sa ti also increasing their lifespan, but they would still eventually die of old age if they did not reach the true ranks of immortals.
Unfortunately, this continent was a place with very thin heaven and earth essence, which made it so that their chances of reaching this level was extrely low.
The most favorable ti to cultivate was when one was young. To build a stable foundation, one needed youth, energy, and luck. Those who were born on this continent might have great talent, but the energy was not enough to truly let their potential shine, and their advances were delayed drastically, making them miss the opportune mont to build a strong foundation.
Bai Rouyun was not very knowledgeable about things above the Innate Realm. Still, she did know that these cultivators could not be called immortals, and that since their bodies were similar to that of the common people, then a physician would be the best at examining Dongfang Yu’s current condition.
He had been subject to a long period of poisoning, and while the dicinal pill was capable of cleansing his body, so organs might have beco injured in the process.
Physician Gan had also realized that these cultivators were not haughty, nor were they arrogant. They looked at him with the sa respect as any other citizen, and were even holding so expectations of his diagnosis.
The profession of healing was sothing that Physician Gan took very seriously, so as soon as he looked at Dongfang Yu, the previous timidity and unrest were wiped away, and only a solemn expression remained on his face.
The pulse underneath Physician Gan’s fingers was beating strongly. At a first impression, nothing seed to be wrong, but after examining further, his brows furrowed.
The look of deep focus made the others within the hall hold their breaths, worried that they might disturb him. Most of the eyes within the hall were staring right at the elderly man, but he did not feel the pressure.
It was as if he had entered a trance, and his eyes were solely focused on the current condition of Dongfang Yu’s body.
It took so ti before he retracted his fingers, seemingly deep in thought. "Open your mouth, and let see your tongue."
Dongfang Yu had no prior experience with physicians, but since Bai Rouyun had asked him to cooperate with this person, he obediently stuck out his tongue.
After looking at the young man for so ti, he nodded his head.
"You do not have anything seriously wrong with your body, however, your liver and spleen are weaker than the rest of your body."
Physician Gan was serious when describing the current condition of Dongfang Yu’s body. Although it was nothing serious, the liver and spleen were indeed weaker than the rest of the organs in his body, and it had to be taken seriously.
Bai Rouyun could not help but frown. She understood the dangers that ca with a weakened body, but her situation was not comparable to Dongfang Yu.
The reason her body could not handle the Qi was mainly due to her ridians not being strong enough. As long as the ridians were strong enough to contain the Qi, so that it did not leak or break them to run rampant, then it was not a problem if a few organs were weaker.
Even so, the weakened liver and spleen were not sothing one should belittle.
Physician Gan was not sure whether or not he should continue speaking, but he was very dedicated to his cause, and thus he cleared his throat and continued to speak.
"Although these organs are weaker than the rest of his body, they are not in a state where one has to worry. There are multiple ways to solve this problem. One would be to consu a healing pill, which is what most cultivators use; the other is to slowly go on a dicinal diet, which will also ensure the strengthening of the organs.
"None of these thods are wrong. The dicinal pill option is much swifter, but might also make it harder to recuperate in the long run, should you encounter more injury. While the dicinal diet option is much slower, it is also gentler and fewer problems would be left behind."
Bai Rouyun listened and nodded her head occasionally. Most cultivators rely consud pills whenever they were injured. Pills were capable of healing one’s body much faster than a dicinal diet, but when a pill was refined, it would often contain certain impurities, which could slowly build up to beco a problem for the body.
Another problem with pills was that they also beca less and less useful the more one used them. The body slowly beca resistant to the dicinal ingredients, causing their beneficial properties to beco much less prominent the more one consud.
As they were not in a hurry, Bai Rouyun was not confused as to which option to choose. The weakened organs were not enough to truly cause problems for Dongfang Yu, and although her pills were without impurities, he should only use them when he truly got injured, and not now when they had the ti to slowly nurture his body.
"Is it possible for Physician Gan to prescribe so dishes that will help Dongfang Yu’s body back to normal?"
Bai Rouyun looked at Physician Gan with respect, and he noticed that she was not out to make fun of his skills, but genuinely wanted his help.
