Just when everyone in the observation room was shocked by Shen Qiang's miraculous single cut,

Shen Qiang himself, standing beside the operating table, was also full of surprise.

He had already utilized 'Power,' 'Precision,' and 'Wind Walk' from the 'Mixed Arts' within the Medical Saint Inheritance.

In the process of surgery, 'Precision,' in particular, provided Shen Qiang with such strength that he could operate as smoothly and effortlessly as if the surgical tools were an extension of his own limbs.

Yet even with the use of 'Precision,'

some steps in surgery simply couldn't be omitted.

If five cuts were needed, it was five cuts; if ten were necessary, then ten it was.

But just now,

Shen Qiang had a sudden stroke of inspiration and used 'Observation Skill,' which he had previously applied only to treasure appraisal, on the patient's position needing surgery.

In that instant, all the blood vessels, tendons, and even the muscle textures in the surgical site appeared exceptionally clear in Shen Qiang's mind.

Furthermore,

it was as terrifying as treasure appraisal.

The patient's age, gender, height, weight, and all other data were inclusively detailed,

even more so than in treasure appraisal.

Divine Skill!

Having seen all the veins and muscle textures, Shen Qiang, with 'Precision' engaged, performed surgery in a way that could not simply be described by the phrase 'carving up an ox.'

Although 'carving up an ox' is magical, it still leaves traces to be found.

But the Shen Qiang who had activated 'Observation Skill' and 'Precision'

now wielded his surgical technique as silently as a gentle, unnoticeable drizzle.

Without a hint of affectation, without a shred of strain.

Quiet and naturally perfect.

Phew...

"Perfect!" Shen Qiang gasped beside the operating table.

But at the same time, he was swamped by a wave of fatigue like he had never experienced before.

Even Shen Qiang couldn't help but stagger slightly.

"Master! Master!"

As Shen Qiang felt slightly dizzy, he was startled to hear Qingxuan's voice.

"What's wrong?"

Looking bewilderedly at the pale-faced Qingxuan in his Sea of Consciousness, Shen Qiang, feeling a bit faint, asked subconsciously.

Kneeling on one knee before him, the pale-faced Qingxuan said, "Master, just now, not only did you deplete all your True Qi in an instant, but even the True Yuan that Qingxuan has been diligently cultivating lately has also been completely exhausted."

Shen Qiang was astounded.

And then he was shocked to realize.

The True Qi that used to fill his body was now completely depleted.

Not only that,

even the figure of Qingxuan had dimmed a bit.

Silently he practiced the Longevity Technique.

Trying to locate the True Qi within his body.

Gone!

"How is this possible!"

All depleted in an instant?

Shen Qiang was horrified, but he calmed his mind, steadied his breath, and focused his spirit.

It took a long time before he found the last vestige of remaining True Qi within his meridians.

That made Shen Qiang breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking at the pale-faced Qingxuan, Shen Qiang said, "Don't worry! The Cultivation is still there, but it seems like it will take more time to recover."

Qingxuan frowned slightly and said, "Please prioritize your health, Master. You've just reached the Spiritual Movement Stage and are barely touching the threshold of Qi Condensation. Such depletion of True Qi could have severe adverse effects on your future cultivation."

Shen Qiang fell silent for a moment and then nodded, "I understand."

After that, he asked subconsciously, "Qingxuan, can you now cultivate True Qi on your own?"

Qingxuan nodded and said, "In response to my master's question, Qingxuan can also cultivate now, but because I lack a physical body, my cultivation speed is approximately one-fifth that of my master's. Therefore, if you wish to use Qingxuan as combat strength, Master's cultivation must at least reach the Nascent Soul Stage or higher."

Shen Qiang sighed.

Returning to his senses, the separation surgery on the huge abdominal tumor had already been completed.

When Shen Qiang completely removed that massive tumor from the patient's abdominal cavity at that moment, everyone in the observation room erupted once again.

"Oh my god, such a huge tumor! Looks like it's about thirty pounds!"

"Heavens, it looks like a giant watermelon!"

"This tumor is just too big!"

While everyone was shocked, many doctors and cameramen were frantically taking pictures with various phones and cameras.

Subsequently, amid the stunned discussions of the crowd.

Having taken care of the key aspects of the surgery, Shen Qiang handed the operation over to Wu Guoxi and the two assistants appointed by Director Wang.

Both individuals were first-class surgeons at Bikang.

One was from tumor surgery, and the other from general surgery.

Entrusting them with the follow-up tasks, Shen Qiang felt quite at ease.

After stepping down from the surgical table, he quietly watched them carry out the suturing.

Shen Qiang entered his Sea of Consciousness once again.

He discovered Qingxuan, seated in a meditative posture, was helping him with energy cultivation.

The mere trace of True Qi that remained had begun to circulate through his channels under her guidance.

However, as the True Qi circulated, Shen Qiang could distinctly feel that his originally True Qi-swollen and robust meridians had somewhat contracted following the depletion of True Qi.

This made Shen Qiang frown.

In fact, using up True Qi was not a first for Shen Qiang.

In the past, even if he depleted his True Qi, a certain amount would still remain in his body's meridians.

But this time was different.

Not only was the True Qi thoroughly consumed, the amount used had also become very peculiar.

Because Shen Qiang was very clear that prior to entering the Spiritual Movement Stage, all his True Qi could be used for approximately 0.8 seconds of Observation Skill. After entering the Spiritual Movement Stage, though Shen Qiang had not used Observation Skill in its entirety at once,

he could conservatively estimate that he could use it for at least 1.2 seconds.

As for the activation of precision, the True Qi consumed was merely one percent of that used for Observation Skill.

Although he had not meticulously calculated it, Shen Qiang was certain that if he kept the precision mode fully engaged, he could last at least two minutes.

Yet under such circumstances, Shen Qiang had only taken a glance and made one cut.

And his True Qi was already completely drained!

What was the problem?

After much consideration, the only possibility seemed to lie with the Observation Skill, a technique that consumed a large amount of True Qi.

However, to understand the real reason, he would need to wait until his normal state was restored before making a decision.

In the observation room, the crowd buzzed with discussion, brimming with excitement.

The focus of the conversation was still on that miraculous cut by Shen Qiang.

As for the suturing that followed, no one paid it any heed.

Half an hour later.

The stitching of the surgery concluded, and Shen Qiang washed his hands, ready to leave the operating room.

The female reporter, along with the cameraman, hurried to the door of the operating room.

Just the thought of soon seeing Shen Qiang made the female reporter's heart pound chaotically; she was not only nervous and flustered, but her small palm gripping the microphone was also sweaty.

Squeak!

The door to the operating room opened.

As Shen Qiang, smiling and talking to Wu Guoxi, stepped out of the operating room at that moment, upon seeing his smile,

the female reporter's face flushed red in an instant; she not only gripped the microphone tighter but also involuntarily clenched her legs together.

"Such a sunny smile!"

And almost at the same time as the female reporter's pretty face turned red and her mind was filled with wandering thoughts,

the charming and alluring Su Xiaonuan was already laughing and approaching to wrap her arms around Shen Qiang's arm.

"I just knew you'd be the strongest!"
