Chapter 15: Life-Shortening Enhancement
Acupuncture is the most straightforward method summarized in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
Although Huang Ji could precisely perform acupuncture, he found it highly inconvenient, especially since some hidden acupoints were in awkward locations—for instance, deep inside the chest, out of his own reach.
Others were nestled between vital organs or bones, making them inaccessible with needles. Some points were so sensitive that even the slightest touch was enough; using a needle, no matter how delicately, would still be excessive.
“This hidden meridian… I’ll call it the ‘Divine Ancestral Meridian.’ It’s the ancestor of the twelve primary meridians, governing the flow of neurotransmitters.”
“In the Divine Ancestral Meridian, I’ve identified two points I can stimulate—one controlling the blood supply system and the other stimulating growth hormone production.”
Huang Ji was slightly disappointed, having already mapped out 42 acupoints in the Divine Ancestral Meridian, each with its unique function. Yet most of them were unsuitable for acupuncture.
“Let’s start with these two,” he decided.
He removed his shirt and took out stainless steel acupuncture needles. Carefully, he inserted needles into the Yunmen, Zhongfu, Tianchi, Huagai, and Yutang points—serving as primers for the process.
