When Liu Li entered this time, she looked almost exactly the same as before; she resembled a statue.
Shi Xuan waved his hand in front of her, but she remained unmoved.
Liu Changhai asked with some worry, "What... what should we do?"
Shi Xuan withdrew his hand nonchalantly and said, "It's alright. We'll start the treatment soon, and she'll react when she feels pain."
The first step in rebuilding the dantian is to completely destroy it under the protection of spiritual energy. As the saying goes, "no destruction, no construction," the first step in rebuilding is destruction.
Shi Xuan didn't make any special preparations. He simply took out a Shattered Spirit Pill and used his spiritual power to put it into her mouth.
The pill melted instantly upon entering her mouth, and in no time, the intense pain emanating from her dantian finally jolted the girl, whose consciousness had been trapped in another world.
Liu Li's brows furrowed in pain, but her gaze finally focused on Shi Xuan.
When Shi Xuan saw her looking over, he gave her the painkiller pill he was holding.
But how could a painkiller possibly solve the excruciating pain of the dantian splitting open again?
Shi Xuan looked into her eyes and said, "Listen carefully, I can heal your dantian, and you can start cultivating in the future. It will be a little painful, but if you persevere, you will be reborn!"
Liu Li looked pained but her eyes were vacant, as if she didn't understand what Shi Xuan was saying.
The conclusion that there was no cure was deeply ingrained in her mind, and she had not considered any other possibility.
The person in front of her was talking to her, but it felt like a dream. Why was she in so much pain?
Wait, it hurts so much? If it hurts this much, does that mean I'm not dreaming?
Her gaze finally focused, looking at Shi Xuan, but she still didn't seem to understand what she meant.
Shi Xuan repeated, word by word, "I am treating you, you will be well soon!"
Liu Li finally understood what she was saying, her eyes changed, and she finally spoke: "Wh-what..."
She hadn't spoken for so long, and when she finally opened her mouth, her voice was very hoarse.
Even so, her family members behind her showed expressions of surprise and delight when they saw her like this.
My little sister hasn't spoken in so long! Not only did she rarely speak, she barely even reacted! Her eyes wouldn't even blink! But now she's speaking! That's a huge improvement, how can we not be overjoyed!
It's a good thing that there's a reaction.
Looking into her eyes, Shi Xuan continued, "Now I'm going to treat your dantian. Try to concentrate all your spiritual energy in your dantian. It doesn't matter if you can't concentrate it, just concentrate it."
Liu Li was still reacting, but she had already subconsciously followed Shi Xuan's instructions.
In fact, during this step, Liu Li did not need to concentrate her spiritual power because her dantian was damaged again and completely shattered into the smallest particles. No matter what she did, it would not affect the treatment effect.
However, in order for her to cooperate well in the next step, Shi Xuan let her get used to it in advance.
Liu Li did as instructed. She hadn't used her spiritual power for a long time, so she felt quite rusty when she did it. But slowly, she got into the swing of things and began to systematically draw the surrounding spiritual energy into her body and then into her dantian.
The further damage to her dantian caused her even more pain. Even with the painkillers, Liu Li was still sweating profusely from the pain.
Liu Changhai and the others immediately became tense again.
"Is...is she alright?" Looking at her daughter, she didn't seem to be receiving treatment at all; it seemed like her condition had worsened. Her face was even paler, starting to turn ashen, which was quite alarming.
"It's nothing," Shi Xuan said nonchalantly. "The first two days will be more painful, but it will get better afterward."
These words were spoken to Liu Changhai, and also to Gu Liangce.
From the moment she began treating Liu Li, Gu Liangce had been watching over her.
It would take a long time for Liu Li's dantian to be completely destroyed, so Shi Xuan explained the principles to Gu Liangce.
"It is possible to replenish this dantian, but the strength of the dantian after replenishment will not be enough to support high-intensity cultivation. It will not be enough even when you reach the Golden Core stage. There will be little difference between replenishing it and not replenishing it."
Gu Liangce nodded humbly.
But the Liu family members behind her were in turmoil.
What do you mean by saying that it makes no difference whether you repair it or not?! You should know that if someone with a damaged dantian can be cured, even if they can only cultivate to the Golden Core stage, that would be an immense blessing. Who wouldn't want that?
However, at this moment, Xuan Kou dismissed that method of treatment with disdain. Even the alchemist Lin Pinggu, whom they had previously invited, hadn't been able to replenish his dantian to the level where he could cultivate to the Golden Core stage.
Unaware of their thoughts, Shi Xuan continued to Gu Liangce, "So what we need to do is not repair, but reshape. The current process is to completely shatter her dantian into strands of lotus root silk, and then use divine sense and spiritual power in conjunction with elixirs to reshape it. The process is not difficult, but it requires a high level of subtle control over divine sense and spiritual power. You must undergo a lot of practice before you can treat people. You can try it on some animals first."
Liu Li continued, and Shi Xuan had finished explaining the requirements for this step to Gu Liangce. Now that he was bored, he took out the alchemy furnace and began to refine pills.
Shi Xuan appeared relaxed, but the Liu family members dared not slack off in the slightest.
They craned their necks, looking in Liu Li's direction with anxious anticipation.
At this moment, Xuan didn't care about her younger sister at all. She was in so much pain, but Shi Xuan just kept refining pills as if the matter had nothing to do with her.
But no one dared to stand up and say that they still vividly remembered how rude they had been to her and how she had almost left. If she left in anger again this time, even the clan chief might not be able to persuade her to come back.
In less than an hour, Liu Li's clothes were soaked with sweat, and she looked as if she had been pulled out of the water. Her face was ashen, and she looked like a dying person, which made everyone's hearts jump to their throats. Liu Tai even couldn't help but take two steps forward, but Liu Changhai pulled him back and he barely managed to hold back.
Just then, Shi Xuan finished refining a batch of pills. As he collected the pills, a radiant glow descended from the sky, shining directly through the roof and onto Shi Xuan, creating a dazzling and magnificent display.
The Liu family members were once again shocked by this strange occurrence.
They had heard that a cultivator from the Lianfeng Sword Sect had obtained the Dao Seal of Glowing Light, but they had never seen the Dao Seal. Although they had heard of it, they felt it was not real enough, and it was possible that it was just a rumor.
But now that they had seen this breathtaking sunset with their own eyes, everyone was stunned.
The timely arrival of this rosy light had the advantage of putting the people behind them at ease. Anyone capable of refining Dao Seal Pills must be quite skilled. In this light, their little sister's mission was already half accomplished!
As dusk fell, Shi Xuan began to examine Liu Li's inner chambers after each batch of pills he refined.
Finally, after her third attempt, she felt it was time, so she put away the Heavenly Origin Pill Furnace, took out a Rejuvenation Pill, and had her swallow it.
