After emptying the chest and abdomen of the Golden Crow, Teacher Xuan Hui did not stop but gently collected all the internal organs that were taken out of the Golden Crow.
After that, it started to move its wings.
With several slashes, the chest of the Golden Crow was completely torn apart, but the sternum was not harmed. Teacher Xuan Hui demonstrated to Yan Jia what “Pao Ding Jie Niu” means and what technology is. With every cut, a silent “crack” would appear on the body of the Golden Crow.
Yan Jia could see that the teacher’s movements were so practiced as if he had done it countless times, and a strange sense of beauty always came with his movements.
Very quickly, the feathers of the Golden Crow were completely torn off. After Teacher Xuan Hui left, the Golden Crow on the table didn’t have the same kind of beauty it had before it was taken out by the teacher.
When the carcass of the Golden Crow was taken out of the Space Ring, apart from the wound pointed out by Teacher Xuan Hui, there wasn’t a single wound on the Golden Crow’s body. It didn’t look like it had been dead for a long time. Although it was said to be dead, it looked more like it was sleeping.
Yan Jia could still see the Qi that belonged to the Great Sun Golden Crow from his body. In particular, the legends of Yan Jia’s past life made it seem to have a halo in front of Yan Jia, a halo that only he could see.
And now, there was a Golden Crow in front of Yan Jia. Also, less than three meters away was a human like him. The human, who was only five years older than Yan Jia, cut open the crow’s chest and took out the heart that belonged to it.
The crow was also lifted up and displayed once. From then on, the halo that only existed in Yan Jia’s eyes disappeared. The only thing left was the corpse of the divine beast called Golden Crow, which had its chest cut open.
After that, its abdomen further hallowed out.
The complete feather that belonged to the crow had been entirely removed by Teacher Xuan Hui.
Now, the only thing left behind was a bird’s corpse, its chest hollowed out and its feathers plucked off.
Looking at the carcass that had muscles and bones all over its body, Yan Jia could not link it with the Golden Crow’s body from before, no matter what, even though he had seen everything unfold one step at a time.
Teacher Xuan Hui did not stop at putting away the feathers of the Golden Crow. It was different from when he had first cut out the heart of the Golden Crow and the other internal organs. At that time, whenever he removed a part of the internal organs, he would explain to the surrounding students what the internal organs were used for as well as the difference between a human’s internal organs and its internal organs.
If it did not have an organ similar to a human’s, it would be even more talked about, making Yan Jia’s impression of this part of the internal organs even more profound.
After Teacher Xuan Hui emptied the Golden Crow’s chest and abdomen, he no longer explained anything to the students. Instead, he focused all of his attention on the Golden Crow.
One slash after another.
The Golden Crow’s muscles fell onto the table under the influence of gravity.
Bone after bone was dissected from the Golden Crow’s body by Teacher Xuan Hui. It was like gently blowing away the dust covering a precious treasure, and with just a gentle breath, it could be revealed.
Finally, a complete skeleton of the Golden Crow appeared before Yan Jia. The Golden Crow’s pale golden skeleton appeared on the table less than three meters away.
The skeleton was still radiating with a golden-red shine. The only pity was that the part of the sternum that was about to be removed would be destroyed by Teacher Xuan Hui.
After putting away the Golden Crow’s muscles on the Wood of Fusang table, a golden radiance slowly condensed on Teacher Xuan Hui’s hand. Then, like flowing water, it passed through the air and flowed onto the Golden Crow bones on the table.
The golden light was like flowing water, constantly circulating and strengthening the Golden Crow’s skeleton. It did not interfere with the originally flickering golden light on the skeleton.
Teacher Xuan Hui then took out the fragment of the Golden Crow’s sternum that he had carefully put away and the Golden Crow bone marrow that flowed out.
The sternum fragment that had just been taken out kept floating mid-air. When the bone marrow was taken out, it condensed into a ball in the air.
The golden radiance that flowed from Teacher Xuan Hui’s hand to the bones continued to grow, and it only stopped when it came into contact with the bone marrow and sternum fragments in the air.
When the golden bone marrow originally floating mid-air came into contact with the radiance, a ‘tentacle’ slowly extended out of the ball. The ‘tentacle’ continued to extend and split. Finally, it came into contact with the broken part of the sternum on the Golden Crow’s bones.
The bone marrow ball floating in the air continued to shrink until it flowed back to where it originally was along the extended ‘tentacle.’
The sternum fragments quietly floating in the air also followed the golden light and slowly floated toward the Golden Crow’s skeleton on the table. Finally, they were pieced together. Other than a few tiny cracks, it was impossible to tell that this bone had once been damaged.
The golden radiance that had stopped growing after coming into contact with the Golden Crow’s bone marrow and sternum fragment also began slowly shrinking and condensing.
Finally, right in front of Yan Jia, the cracks on the sternum of the Golden Crow began to weaken as the golden radiance continued to condense. It became blurry until Yan Jia could no longer see the cracks. The light continued to liquefy and decrease.
Until it disappeared.
It may sound lengthy, but in reality, it happened very quickly. From Teacher Xuan Hui taking out the marrow and sternum fragments of the Golden Crow to the complete disappearance of the golden radiance, it had only taken a dozen breaths of time.
What was in front of Yan Jia now was a complete set of Golden Crow bones that had no visible wounds at all, with a crimson radiance constantly circulating it.
Suddenly, the Golden Crow’s skeleton, which was originally lying quietly on the table, seemed to have come alive.
It curled up its two skeletal claws and flapped its bony wings as it stood up from the table.
The Golden Crow that had its eyes removed continued to use its empty eye sockets to ‘look’ at the surrounding students.
After quietly ‘sizing’ the students up twice, it rose into the air, hovering over the classroom.
Suddenly, the Golden Crow, with only its skeleton left, soared into the sky and hovered over the classroom.
The specifications of the laboratories were different from the classrooms where Yan Jia and his classmates had their lessons. Not only was the area larger than the original classroom, allowing it to accommodate more students, but it was also much higher than the classroom.
Even though there were neither feathers nor flesh, the Golden Crow’s bones were still much bigger than an adult’s. When the two bony wings were spread out, they could reach a wingspan of more than seven meters.
Even in this state, it could still fly in the air above the entire laboratory.
Yan Jia suddenly discovered that the flying path of this Golden Crow was very similar to the flying path of Teacher Xuan Hui.
The skeleton circled above the laboratory a few times before stopping. It then landed on the table on the platform.
Every movement and action of the skeleton Golden Crow was not like a skeleton Golden Crow at all. It was more like a living Golden Crow.
After landing on the Wood of Fusang table, the ‘Golden Crow’ spread its wings, raised its bony head, and opened its beak.
Yan Jia seemed to vaguely hear an eerie cry. It was a very loud cry, but after focusing on bringing back his attention, he seemed to not hear anything.
Suddenly, the red light that was circulating the Golden Crow’s skeleton exploded and fell on the students in the classroom like raindrops.
Putting his hands in front of his face, Yan Jia touched his body. He did not feel anything different, but he could see that the red light had indeed disappeared from his body.
He turned his head and looked in front of him. The red light that was circulating the Golden Crow’s skeleton had already disappeared. The crow was no longer as lively as before; only dead bones were left.
Teacher Xuan Hui kept the Wood of Fusang table along with the skeletal remains of the Golden Crow with its wings spread open on top.
“Students, this lesson is over. Class is dismissed.”
As he spoke, he revealed a very mysterious smile.” I wish you all a good dream. “
After speaking, he transformed into a half-meter-tall Golden Crow in a golden light and flew out of the laboratory through the door.
“庖丁解牛” (Pao Ding Jie Niu) is a Chinese idiom that originated from a story about a skilled butcher named Pao Ding, who could disassemble a cow with such precision and ease that it was like he was solving a puzzle. The idiom is often used to describe someone who has a deep understanding of a complex issue and can handle it with ease and mastery, just like Pao Ding did with the cow.
