Boom boom boom!
Under the continuous and fierce collisions, blood flowed from the corner of Zhou Qing's mouth. It was difficult for his meridians to withstand this kind of impact, and fine cracks began to appear, almost to the point of breaking.
His expression did not change, and he swallowed the remaining six Soul Concentrating Pills in one gulp.
The moment the Soul Concentrating Pill entered his mouth, it instantly turned into pure spirit energy that filled every part of his body. It merged with his own spirit energy and the energy of heaven and earth, turning into a surging torrent.
Feeling the changes in his body, Zhou Qing gathered his energy and continuously channeled his spiritual energy to attack his meridians. Finally, after six hours, the last meridian point shattered with a loud bang!
At this point, all 361 acupoints had been cleared by him.
Peak of the spirit realm!
Spiritual energy violently rotated at 361 swirls, and the spiritual energy inside surged and gathered at the middle focus. As it flowed, it flowed into the Hand-Taiyin and Yangming; from the Yangming to the Hand-Shaoyin and the Sun-Yangming; from the Hand-Shaoyin to the Hand-Shaoyin to the Sun; from the Hand-Shaoyang to the Hand-Taiyang; from the Hand-Taiyang to the Hand-Taiyang; and from the Hand-Taiyang to the Hand-Taiyang to form a complete cycle.
For example, the whirlpools of spiritual energy in Zhou Qing's body used to be like a pool, but now they were connected to each other without any hindrance.
Just from this alone, Zhou Qing's strength had increased by several times!
There was a huge difference between a person who had opened 360 acupoints and a person who had opened 361 acupoints.
With his current strength, coupled with the reaction and experience of a Mage, he could easily kill an early stage Soul Formation cultivator. If he used his full strength, he would be able to fight even a mid stage Soul Formation cultivator!
In these nine days, he had gone from the late stage of Spirit Opening to the peak. This cultivation speed was already considered heaven-defying, but Zhou Qing felt like he hadn't even used up a bit of his energy.
If he wanted to, he could forcefully break through to the Solidified Soul Realm!
According to the < Rites of Immortal Cultivation >, the Seven Souls were hidden within the flesh and blood, and could open eight extraordinary meridians. They could condense and refine the Seven Souls, and when formed, they could give birth to the Spiritual Awareness and control over objects.
Thus, a Soul Condensation cultivator was also known as a person who entered the Dao Realm.
On the other hand, Zhou Qing was different. He had opened up all eight extraordinary meridians long ago and formed his own soul. However, when he was crippled by Sage Great Sun, his soul was also wasted.
It had to be said that Zhou Qing's fate had been a blessing in disguise.
The [Incantation of Ten Thousand Spirit] was profound. It did not cultivate the three souls and seven souls, but instead used another method to form a soul. It was just right for his current situation.
”According to the records of the Incantation of Ten Thousand Spirits, every 12 of the forty-eight acupoints are at the First Heavenly Layer. The forty-eight acupoints are at the peak of the Soul Formation stage.”
Zhou Qing pondered in his heart. He originally planned to open up a special cave in one go and enter the Soul Formation stage.
But now, if he forcefully broke through, his strange acupoints simply could not withstand it and would directly shatter!
”Actually, it is correct that you don't want to break through. The Mysterious Acupuncture Point is far more complex and important than you can imagine.”
The Curse Spirit suddenly spoke with a solemn voice.
”Hmm? ”Then, what should I do next?”
Zhou Qing was deep in thought, and he could not help but ask with a questioning tone.
”Naturally, it is to temper the strange acupoints and increase their endurance.”
Seemingly feeling that Zhou Qing's question was very foolish, the Curse Spirit's tone was a little impatient.
”Tempering the Mysterious Acupuncture Point?”
Zhou Qing frowned. The acupoints of a human body were extremely important. Who would dare to casually temper them? He might accidentally cripple himself.
”You want to get something in return if you don't pay? ”Little brat Zhou, you are too naive.”
The Curse Spirit laughed, ”The Curse of Myriad Spirits is extremely tyrannical, your current body can't withstand it. Only by tempering and strengthening your special acupuncture points can you condense a soul pill in one go!”
The Curse Spirit remembered some things regarding the Myriad Spirit Curse very clearly.
”How should I train it?”
Zhou Qing didn't understand. He knew that the Ten Thousand Spirit Curse was different from the Cultivation Ceremony. The Soul Formation cultivator was a soul pill, not a seven soul cultivator.
A soul pill was formed by the seven spirits. After each meridian was cleared, the soul pill would become stronger. It was similar to a soul pill, but much more complex.
”Naturally, it's nourished by the powerful lifeform's blood essence.”
The Curse Spirit was very straightforward and threw out a sentence.
Seeing that Zhou Qing wanted to ask more, the Curse Spirit grew impatient. The Fate Stone lit up, directly transmitting a series of messages to Zhou Qing's mind.
”So that's how it is. The acupuncture points of a human body are born weak, and the strange acupuncture points are even more so. Therefore, in order to obtain the Soul Concentrating Pill, one must first use essence blood to refine their acupuncture points and increase their endurance. Only then can the effects of each and every acupuncture point be maximized … ”
Zhou Qing muttered to himself, finally understanding the situation.
Of course, he could also use his own blood essence to refine it. He could use his own blood essence to nourish it for a period of time and also condense a soul pill.
But which type of Life Essence Blood should he use? Servants naturally couldn't use blood essence. Only fiendish demons would do so.
That's right, he would use the demonic blood essence to temper his special acupoints!
And if he wanted to do it, he had to do it to the limit!
Zhou Qing estimated that they were not far from White Ridge City after he steered the small boat down the river for about three miles. He then changed his clothes and jumped onto the riverbank. After keeping the small boat, he headed towards White Ridge City.
It had been almost ten days since Zhou Qing escaped from the Ten Thousand Devil Cave, and everyone had long since heard about the fiendish demon rebellion in the Ghost Cave.
The Mysterious Sky Sect had already sent many powerful mages to the entrance to suppress them. Many demons and monsters had rushed out of the Ghost Hole, causing a large number of casualties.
White Ridge City was the closest city to the entrance of the Ten Thousand Devil Cave. The incident in the Ghost Cave had caused panic in the people within the city, and the number of Profound Heaven Sect guards had multiplied, setting up traps at the city gates.
Anyone who entered the city would have to undergo a thorough investigation before being allowed to enter. As a result, there were several hundred meters long lines of people lined up outside the city gates.
