70: Immortal's method, Thirteen Needles of Tiandu Reincarnation!

Tuoba Man’s expression was ferocious, clearly having gone through an intense internal struggle, before finally gritting his teeth and directly snatching the teapot and teacup from Zhao Li’s hand.

Seeing the dignified Northern Wilderness War God actually preparing to personally pour tea for Su Ming, everyone present was so astonished their eyes nearly popped out.

Tuoba Man’s hand trembled slightly as he held the teapot, spilling more than half of the tea before managing to pour just half a cup.

Under everyone’s incredulous gazes, he held the teacup with both hands, bent his back—a back he had never bent even for the Empress—and said in a hoarse voice, "Please, Prince Pinggan, have some tea."

"Mm~" Su Ming calmly hummed, took the tea Tuoba Man offered, unhurriedly cleared away the tea leaves, and then took a small sip.

Everyone stared blankly at this unprecedented scene, unconsciously swallowing as they followed Su Ming’s movements, leaving only the sound of Su Ming sipping his tea in the hall.

He returned the teacup to Zhao Li’s hand, and Zhao Li, as if granted a great pardon, quickly took the teacup and retreated.

After finishing his tea, the unrestrained smile on Su Ming’s face was gone, replaced by a look of solemnity.

"Tell the Imperial Physician to bring a set of silver needles."

"Summon the Imperial Physician!"

Zhao Li quickly stretched his neck, shouting towards the outside of the hall like a crowing rooster.

Soon, an Imperial Physician, holding a set of silver needles, hurriedly ran into the hall; perhaps due to extreme nervousness, he stumbled a few meters from Su Ming, sliding on his knees directly in front of him.

Ignoring the burning pain in his knees, the Imperial Physician respectfully presented the set of silver needles with both hands.

After receiving the silver needles, Su Ming looked at Tuoba Man again.

"King Ding'an, take off your armor."

Tuoba Man did not hesitate, nodding solemnly and removing his battle armor, which gleamed with a cold light.

The hundred-pound armor hit the ground with a clang.

At this moment, everyone no longer cared about the astonishing weight of the armor; instead, they looked at Tuoba Man’s bare upper body with horrified expressions.

Tuoba Man’s muscular upper body was covered in crisscrossing scars, the best proof of his valiant battles over the years.

But these were not what shocked everyone the most; what truly shocked them was that half of Tuoba Man’s body was covered in frost, and without the armor’s concealment, wisps of cold air continuously emanated from him.

Moreover, there was a shocking, fist-sized wound on his shoulder, through which everyone could vaguely see exposed white bone and necrotic flesh.

And the pervasive frost was continuously spreading outwards from this wound.

Everyone had only heard from Su Ming that Tuoba Man was injured by Su Yiyao, but they had not expected the injury to be so severe.

"Are you ready?" Su Ming asked in a deep voice.

"Begin!"

"If you can truly heal the Marshal’s injuries, you will be my savior from now on!"

"Heh heh…" Su Ming smiled meaningfully, said no more, and instead chanted inwardly, "System, exchange for Tiantian Reincarnation Thirteen Needles!"

[Congratulations, Host, for successfully exchanging Tiantian Reincarnation Thirteen Needles for 50 points.]

After realizing the abnormality in Tuoba Man’s body, Su Ming had already found the exchange target in the system’s shop, but he had not immediately exchanged it.

If Tuoba Man had been ungrateful, he wouldn’t have minded watching the Northern Wilderness War God perish.

A person with ill intentions towards him, if he died, then he died; Su Ming would not be so soft-hearted as to save him.

However, it seemed now that Tuoba Man still had some self-awareness.

First, he would use him to resist the Great Gan army for a while, and it wouldn’t be too late to kill him later when he was no longer useful.

The next moment, countless medical knowledge flooded into Su Ming’s mind like a tide, and a faint golden light flickered in his eyes.

Under everyone’s expectant gazes, Su Ming finally moved.

He picked up a silver needle and, with lightning speed, inserted it directly into an acupoint on Tuoba Man’s back.

Tuoba Man grunted; the moment the silver needle entered his body, he felt the icy cold energy, which he had forcibly suppressed with his true qi, explode, wildly coursing through his body before surging towards the silver needle in his back.

In just an instant, the gleaming silver needle was frozen by a layer of frost, and wisps of cold air spread into the hall.

Seeing that the first needle had taken effect, Su Ming felt greatly reassured; his right hand had already transformed into afterimages, dazzling to behold, and each silver needle precisely pierced into crucial acupoints on Tuoba Man’s body.

Towards the end, a phantom of a Yin-Yang fish even appeared behind him.

The distinct black and white Yin-Yang fish gently rotated with each needle Su Ming inserted, appearing profound and mysterious.

Watching Su Ming’s miraculous technique, everyone’s eyes were wide, and they screamed inwardly, "No, he really knows how to do it!"

Why!

His intelligence is near demonic, his martial arts talent is heaven-defying, and now you’re also proficient in medicine??

Are you leaving any room for others to live?!

The Imperial Physician who had presented the silver needles to Su Ming had not left; he stood to the side with an equally curious expression, wanting to see what methods Prince Pinggan could use to cure an injury that had stumped a group of Imperial Physicians.

Then his eyes widened further and further, with a hint of confusion and a touch of disbelief.

As the phantom of the Yin-Yang fish appeared behind Su Ming, his expression was replaced solely by shock, and he couldn’t stop trembling, finally exclaiming, "Tiantian Reincarnation Thirteen Needles! Prince Pinggan is performing the Tiantian Reincarnation Thirteen Needles!"

Upon hearing that Su Ming was going to treat Tuoba Man, a group of Imperial Physicians who had rushed over gathered outside the hall, craning their necks in anticipation, but they were too far from Su Ming inside the hall to clearly see what he was doing.

Now, hearing the exclamation of the Imperial Physician present inside the hall, they were first stunned, then immediately showed looks of horror.

"How is this possible! How is this possible! The Tiantian Reincarnation Thirteen Needles have been lost for hundreds of years; how can anyone still perform it!"

"No, I must go into the hall and see for myself!"

"Are you crazy? Entering the hall without His Majesty’s permission could cost you your head!"

"If I hear the Dao in the morning, I can die in the evening. If I can personally witness the emergence of the Tiantian Reincarnation Thirteen Needles today, what does death matter!"

Although the group of ministers in the hall did not understand medicine, they were also horrified upon hearing about the Tiantian Reincarnation Thirteen Needles.

Legend has it that before the founding of Northern Wilderness, the late Emperor was gravely wounded and on the verge of death on the battlefield.

Just then, an immortal descended from the sky and used miraculous medical skills to save the late Emperor from the gates of hell; later, it was said that the medical technique this immortal used was called the Tiantian Reincarnation Thirteen Needles.

It was just a pity that after the late Emperor’s injuries were completely healed, this immortal departed freely.

And the Tiantian Reincarnation Thirteen Needles, along with the immortal’s departure, became a legend.
