Chapter 11: Unclog The Meridians
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yunxiao sat in his chair, absorbed in his reflections. If it were not for his lack of strength, he would not have taken Jia Rong as his servant. Moreover, his soul power had suffered great damage after using the soul-confusing technique!
“Unfortunately, my soul power was greatly weakened after my rebirth. Otherwise, I would not have gone to so much trouble to deal with a mere first-tier alchemist!”
After his rebirth, his soul power was not even as strong as an ordinary first-tier alchemist. Just now, he had only used a soul-confusing mystic art to momentarily stun Jia Rong. If the latter came to his senses, he would certainly find that something was wrong, so he took out a soul cultivating technique and gave it to him.
This was called ‘hit you with a stick and then give you a bun,’. Otherwise, no matter how trashy a soul cultivating technique was, it was still priceless, and he would never give it to someone so easily.
Yunxiao sat down cross-legged, his eyes slightly closed while a golden script began to appear in his mind. It was all undecipherable text that looked like tadpoles, flickering and vanishing repeatedly in his head.
However, no matter how he contemplated over it, he could not make the complete script appear in his mind!
After his soul had awakened, it was only a matter of time before he became one of the strongest men of the generation. But, Yunxiao’s goal was more than that: he wanted to become an existence beyond his previous life. He wanted to make a breakthrough into the legendary realm! His greatest reliance now came not from the memory of his past life or the Tyrant Body Tempering Technique, but from a soul cultivation technique he had discovered in Tiandang Mountains just before his death—the Great Expansion Divine Technique!
He had never heard of this soul cultivating technique, and its contents were beyond his imagination. He believed that the reason why his soul was able to be reborn must have something to do with it. In fact, the voice that rang in his mind as he recovered the memory of his past life was reading the text of this divine technique.
Cultivators on the Heavenly Martial Continent were basically divided into martial cultivators and alchemy cultivators. The former mainly focused on the cultivation of Qi while a small number of them specialized in the cultivation of flesh—the so-called common warriors. The latter focused mainly on the cultivation of the soul, and they were precisely the alchemists. Each of the three corresponded to the spirit, energy, and soul of a human respectively, and no matter which one reached the peak, an individual could become a mighty figure who shook the entire continent.
But, as a martial cultivator who had already cultivated his energy and soul to the level of sovereign, Yunxiao knew the importance of complementarity between the three very well. All of the few strongest Conferred Martial Sovereigns in the world had cultivated two of the three to the peak, which made them far stronger than the other existences.
It was only after he was trapped at the pinnacle of the Nine Heavens Realm that he realized how the strength of his flesh had prevented him from making further breakthroughs, which drove him to get his hands on the Tyrant Body Tempering Technique. Only when the body, Qi, and soul reached the peak at the same time could he make a spurt toward the legendary Ten Worlds Realm!
“Now that I have the Great Expansion Divine Technique, I will definitely be able to cultivate my soul power to the peak of the sovereign realm. Coupled with Tyrant’s body tempering technique…when all three are fused as one, I can then make a breakthrough into the Ten Worlds Divine Realm and become invincible!”
A glimmer of bright light flashed in his eyes as he seemed to be looking through layers of space at the end of the boundless void!
“I can craft at least thirteen divine needles with this piece of Five-color Divine Air Stone, which is enough to arouse the potential of my current body and allow me to unclog my meridians!”
He settled down and began to circulate the Great Expansion Divine Technique. His damaged soul power was recovering at a terrifying rate, and it soon reached the peak level of an apprentice alchemist.
“Although a little short from the level of a first-tier alchemist, it’s enough for me to craft the divine needles and concoct the potion!”
When he had placed Han Bai and Chen Zhen in a safe place, he made his way toward the training room.
The training room equipped with the single dormitory was constructed with extremely tough diamond rock, which was not only difficult to be destroyed by ordinary warriors, but also had an excellent sound insulating effect.
From the material Jia Rong gave him, Yunxiao took out an ingredient called purple gold sand, slapped it into a powder form with both hands, and used it to draw a pentacle-shaped array on the ground. When he was done, a strange force began to emanate from the array.
After that, he placed the Five-color Divine Air Stone on the ground, then took out the black sword and struck it down with all his might. With a ‘boom’, the stone shattered into countless tiny pieces.
A trace of golden light flashed across his brows before a stream of invisible soul power rippled out, wrapping all the tiny pieces of stone and bringing them above the array.
As if pulled by the force of the array, those tiny pieces of stone began to slowly quiver, and the frequency became higher and higher over time. Yunxiao carefully controlled their rhythm with his soul power, allowing them to jump in a certain manner.
If anyone had been here to watch the whole process, he would have been left aghast. Yunxiao was so different from the average alchemists in his drawing of the array, refining of the stone, and use of soul power, that it was simply incomprehensible.
His rich experience from the previous life had made up for his lack of strength. Something that only a first-tier alchemist could craft was done with the strength of a senior apprentice alchemist by him.
The tiny fragments of the divine stone started to crackle like fried beans over the array and soon melted into a viscous form before coalescing. As a large amount of white dust drifted out of it, the color of the liquid became brighter and more striking.
He had actually incorporated the step of purification directly into the refining process! If this were to be witnessed by those from the Alchemists’ Association, their jaws would surely drop to the ground!
“Condense!”
Yunxiao faintly shouted out a word and lightly pointed his index finger at the void in front of him. At the word and the gesture, the extracted energy essence over the array instantly condensed into thirteen tiny needles, their surfaces reflecting colorful light which made them look extremely gorgeous! 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮
Thirteen glittering needles fell gently into his hand. However, he did not bother to take a look at them, and just put them straight into his ring.
“Next, I’ll begin concocting the potion that cleanses the marrow and meridians.”
He took out more than a dozen glass vessels of varying sizes and heights, and placed them in a row on the ground. Then, he pulled out a large bottle of a red, pungent liquid from his storage bag and poured it into each vessel. It was the blood of some demon beast.
After all this, Yunxiao took a sharp breath and quickly took various ingredients out of his storage bag as his eyes flashed with a bright gleam, placing them in separate vessels. Soon, different reactions began to appear in each vessel.
Various gases emerged from different vessels, and the liquid inside boiled with colorful bubbles. Yunxiao spread out his soul power, keeping the process of all reactions under the watch of his divine sense. He was constantly adding ingredients to different vessels to counteract the drastic reaction.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The sound of explosions rang without an end. Unable to withstand the violent reactions, the vessels were finally blown apart, sending colorful streams of liquid straight into the air like a fountain!
“Come!”
With a wave of his hand, an exquisite crystal vessel appeared out of nowhere and danced in midair, then a total of nine streams of liquid fell accurately into it. Next, he grabbed the vessel and began to shake it. Nine liquids of different colors quickly fused together to form a dark green solution that swirled quietly in the vessel.
The whole process lasted for about an hour. Because of the excessive consumption of his soul power, Yunxiao’s face and forehead were covered with a thick layer of sweat, and his entire body was soaked in sweat as well, with large drops constantly dripping on the ground.
“Phew!”
He exhaled a long breath and began to gasp. “Haha! It seems that I’m still in excellent condition…I finally succeeded!”
The green solution in the crystal vessel looked calm, but Yunxiao could feel a very powerful force welling up within it!
He did not have time to rest, for he was curious to know the effect of the solution. He quickly brought over a large bucket of boiling water and slowly poured the dark green liquid into it.
Blub blurp!
The air was filled with a loud boiling sound as the water temperature seemed to have risen by hundreds of degrees instantaneously. A great deal of water vapor rose from the bucket, turning the whole room pale green in the blink of an eye and obscuring all eyes.
Yunxiao’s body began to turn a little hot by just standing in the mist while a tremendous amount of heat was slowly seeping into his skin. He took out the five-color divine air needles and carefully inserted them into his body. Each time he inserted one, he felt a force puncturing through the skin into his meridian. But, not only did he feel no pain, he even felt extremely relieved.
Splash!
After inserting all thirteen needles, he jumped straight into the boiling solution. In addition to the boiling heat that burned his skin, a powerful medicinal force poured madly into his body, heading for his limbs and causing his whole body to turn pale green at a rate visible to the naked eye.
He was in severe pain, but his face was overjoyed, for the medicine was better than he had expected. He closed his eyes tightly and performed an incantation gesture with both hands as he sat still, forming a strange contrast to the boiling liquid around him. At the same time, the ends of the needles that had been inserted into his body began to emit a faint colorful glow, as if a force were swirling restlessly in them.
Most of the ingredients he used to concoct the potion were highly toxic, but when put together, they could reach a delicate balance and have an amazing effect on the cleansing of marrow and meridians. People who did not know much about its prescription and medical details would never dare to use this solution. Even he had to divide it into ten parts; otherwise, a careless mistake might cause it to lose balance and kill him on the spot.
But, after getting the five-color divine air needles, he completely changed his plan, because these needles contained the power of the five elements. When they were used to stimulate acupoints, Yunxiao could not only absorb the power of the five elements through them, but also use them to protect his acupoints. He clearly felt the cool, soothing sensation coming from his thirteen main acupoints. Moreover, these acupoints were breathing on their own, constantly inhaling and exhaling the Primordial Qi.
When the power of the potion had been absorbed into him, it swam along his major meridians, spreading throughout his body as it began to unclog the damaged and dried-up invisible meridians one by one. As he endured the tremendous pain, a delightful smile gradually came over his face.
As the impact of the medicine grew stronger, he began to perform various seals with both hands, guiding the movement of the medicine within his body. Many meridians bulged on the surface of his skin and twisted like the roots of an ancient tree, horrible to look at, while a faint green aura was seeping out of them. ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢
BOOM!
Suddenly, a stuffy boom echoed out from within his body, and all his meridians were blown through in that instant! Guided by his hand seal, the power of the medicine poured into his limbs and bones as it swam a full circle, unobstructed!
