Chapter 178 - Pleasant Surprise
The reason was simple: he was the immortal his cousin had seen rescuing someone in that video!
Jiang Hao watched his mother's tearful face and his cousin, with whom he had always been close, and felt torn.
“Should I tell them?”
“Forget it, I'll keep it to myself for now. Even if I were to tell them right now, they probably wouldn't believe me.
To avoid any awkwardness, I need to prepare a bit more!”
After a moment's reflection, Jiang Hao made up his mind.
Seeing his mother's swollen eyes, a wave of guilt washed over Jiang Hao.
“Mom, don't be upset. I'm sure uncle has heaven's protection and will be fine!”
“Cousin, you've just arrived. You should get some rest. I'll go buy some fruit!”
“Dad, I'm heading out!”
“Mhm!”
After comforting his mother and cousin, Jiang Hao bid his father farewell and stepped out the door.
Jiang Hao headed straight for the library as soon as he left the house.
At that moment, Jiang Hao gazed at the two crystals in his mind, feeling an intense mix of emotions.
He could hardly believe that the “Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique” would bring such an astonishing surprise.
He had not only received a medical crystal but also a complete set of acupuncture methods.
Moreover, he realized that his skill points had finally surpassed the one-point threshold after this latest breakdown!
While Jiang Hao was joyfully exploring his new abilities, he suddenly noticed that the medical crystal represented only a fragment of the Yellow Emperor's medical knowledge. His brow creased in thought.
But it didn't take long for him to come to terms with it.
After all, the Yellow Emperor's lifetime of medical expertise couldn't possibly be condensed into a single volume!
Even so, having access to just a part of it was quite remarkable for him.
“Extract, merge!”
At Jiang Hao's command, the two orbs of light within his mind seamlessly integrated into his consciousness.
In an instant, a vast expanse of medical knowledge flooded into Jiang Hao's brain.
He found himself adrift in a sea of boundless medical wisdom, experiencing a profound epiphany.
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Hao transformed from a layperson ignorant of medicine into a medical Grandmaster!
Simultaneously, a soothing warmth circulated through his body, eventually merging with the Qi that had emerged when he elevated his Beat-Dog-Stick Arts to the third level.
Suddenly, this new Qi was effortlessly assimilated by the existing Qi within him.
