Lin Che spent several days with Yao Chengxuan, the Medicine King.

During this time, he not only learned many lost medical skills, but also discovered a secret about Da Zhouzi from the Medicine King.

On this day, Lin Che, as usual, gave Da Zhouzi the pills and continued to teach him cultivation, even passing on the vortex acupoint technique to Da Zhouzi.

Big Elbow learned this particularly quickly.

"You big guy, you're really good material for body tempering. Once you've cultivated all 365 acupoints in your body into vortex acupoints, you'll know what the limit of physical strength is like."

Big Elbow nodded excitedly: "Okay, boss. I'll definitely study hard."

Just then, Yao Chengxuan was standing nearby. He shook his head and said, "That's not the limit of the physical body. Or rather, that's just the limit of an ordinary martial artist. But Wang Teng is from the Kuafu clan, and he has four more acupoints in his body than others."

Lin Che knew Yao Chengxuan wasn't one to joke, so he pressed on, "What are the other four acupoints?"

“Spring, summer, autumn, and winter!” Yao Chengxuan explained, “Originally, our human race also had 369 acupoints, but that was too close to the Dao of Heaven. It was too easy to shorten one's lifespan and incur the jealousy of Heaven. Therefore, the first Human Emperor removed four of the acupoints, leaving only 365. Only those with the bloodline of the Kuafu clan, like them, can withstand it.”

Lin Che suddenly felt his human emperor heart beat rapidly a few times, and it seemed that this was actually true.

"I've never heard of this before. Tell me in detail. What's going on? How do you cultivate the remaining four acupoints, corresponding to spring, summer, autumn, and winter?"

"Hehe. I've only heard a legend; I have no idea how to cultivate. I've only heard that the first Human Emperor was already the Supreme Being. But he believed that to contend with Heaven and Earth, it would be necessary to gather the power of all humankind, which he was unwilling to do. So he simply severed four acupoints himself. From then on, the Human Emperor could at most be called the Supreme Being. These severed spring, summer, autumn, and winter acupoints have been integrated into our world, allowing us humans to experience the changes of the four seasons."

This statement is indeed somewhat fantastical.

However, Lin Che inexplicably believed it and even longed to try cultivating these four lost acupoints if he ever had the chance.

Just then, a martial artist rushed in to report: "Master, the sect leaders and clan chiefs of the eight sects of the Divine Palace will be arriving soon."

Yao Chengxuan nodded: "Then let's go out to greet him—Brother Lin Che, come along!"

"OK!"

Lin Che was also eager to know who was currently representing the Eight Gates of the Divine Palace.

They walked out of the gate, but only walked out; they didn't go far. Such a ceremony was already quite grand for the Medicine King.

The area outside the gate was already packed with people, and the roadsides inside the city were also crowded with people. Many people even stood on the rooftops and treetops.

Not long after.

Sure enough, a black line appeared ahead, which was a densely packed group of martial artists.

From afar, the booming sound of war drums could be heard, followed by the sight of colorful flags fluttering in the wind.

Some of the warriors flew, while others rode birds and beasts. They all carried colorful flags, which fluttered in the wind as they traveled, making them look very impressive.

Seeing such a spectacle, everyone couldn't help but raise their arms and cheer for them.

Indeed, this human army was the main force in resisting the demon race. It was they who united to fight against the invading demon race.

They deserve even more enthusiastic cheers.

"Roar!"

As a ferocious roar resounded, several particularly conspicuous figures appeared.

Judging from their powerful aura, they should be the representative sect leaders of the Eight Gates of the Divine Palace. According to the records, they should be considered the first generation of sect leaders of the Eight Gates of the Divine Palace.

Among them were three men with physiques as large as elbows, nearly three meters tall. The three of them looked very similar, clearly the kind of brothers.

Everyone had short hair, a standard square face, and no clothes on their upper bodies, revealing their bulging muscles and bursts of visible lightning.

They rode on three iron-eating beasts, swaying and wobbling as they walked over.

Yao Chengxuan took the opportunity to introduce them in advance: "They are the three Jumang brothers: Jumang Bo, Jumang Zhong, and Jumang Shu. They were born with superhuman strength, and when they were young, they accidentally entered a secret realm and consumed the Wind and Thunder Fruit there, so they carry lightning on their bodies. These three brothers are very loyal, and they have the most followers."

Then, Yao Chengxuan pointed to the old man next to him, who was dressed like a farmer with disheveled hair and no particularly striking features.

"This is Chief Ji Rui. He is an outstanding totem master who can grant all warriors to totem power on the battlefield."

"And that woman over there, she was the first to obtain the divine palace. She is a great fire controller."

Following Yao Chengxuan's direction, Lin Che looked at the woman again. Her face was covered in wrinkles, and she wore a fiery red dress. Flames on her body would occasionally transform into flying birds. These fiery birds flapped their wings a few times, flew a dozen meters, and then disappeared.

"Alas. There was originally a clan chief of Cangwu Abyss, but unfortunately, he died in battle half a year ago. By the time I arrived, his body had already been torn to pieces."

As they spoke, the army of colorful flags arrived in front of them, and the surrounding area erupted in cheers.

Yao Chengxuan took the initiative to greet them: "Fellow heroes, you've finally arrived! Anyone who is injured, come and get treatment from me now."

Jumangbo jumped down from the giant iron-eating beast and laughed heartily, "Medicine King, we have something more important to discuss with you than healing. We intend to invite you to join the Eight Gates of the Divine Palace and become our sect leader."

Yao Chengxuan pointed to Lin Che: "In my opinion, he is more suitable than me. His name is Lin Che, and he possesses medical skills that are no less than mine, as well as a strong sense of righteousness."

Jumang Zhong spoke in a gruff voice: "Really? Show me your righteous spirit, come on, hit me!"

Lin Che wasn't new to this place. He knew that these people weren't cunning or scheming. Here, the law of survival was much purer: the strong rule.

The issues of offending or hurting someone's self-esteem are irrelevant.

They were all rough men who had survived by fighting their way through the wilderness; they weren't pretentious.

Lin Che didn't mince words: "Then watch closely!"

As he spoke, Lin Che pressed one hand forward, and a surge of righteous energy crashed down from the sky, landing on Jumang Zhong...
