A demon core cracks? He treats it like a ruptured organ that needs stitching. Demonic energy devours the body? He treats it like toxins to be purged. Qi deviation? He treats it as a nervous system disorder.
Every person he saves raises his cultivation by one step. Every incurable disease he heals brings him a little closer to the Heavenly Dao.
Later, all three realms say that there is a doctor on Mount Cangwu, with a wooden sign that reads, “All Illnesses Treated,” and nine golden needles that heal every wound and sickness under heaven.
But no one knows that every “person” he has treated was the world itself borrowing his hands to undergo a preoperative examination.
And he is the surgeon chosen by this world.
A healer treats illness. A great healer treats the world.
