Chapter 249: Unexpectedly, I was forced to use this move once again!

Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu

In the capacity of a 300 years old onion spirit, she had the innate ability to detect natural resources; her senses were even keener than humans’!

Then, she rushed toward the place of the explosion.

Although her cultivation wasn’t high, she was after all a 300 years old nimble onion spirit. Her speed wasn’t slow.

Very soon, she arrived near the place of the explosion.

At that point, she saw a very young human cultivator holding a blackish stone in his hand. The young man had a pale defensive barrier protecting his body.

”A human cultivator?” Lady Onion immediately stopped and cautiously hid. After that incident with Nine Lanterns, she was terrified of human cultivators.

As soon as Song Shuhang grabbed the black stone, he felt something change in his body!

In the instant his fingers came in contact with the black stone, he felt a burst of strange energy pouring into his body from the stone.

It wasn’t qi and blood energy, true qi, or spiritual energy. It was something that didn’t belong to the world of cultivators. However, this power could still affect cultivators.

During this month, Song Shuhang had freeloaded a lot of Venerable White’s luck and had many fortuitous encounters. His third aperture, the Nose Aperture, was almost full of qi and blood and only needed the right opportunity to be opened.

When this strange energy poured inside his body, it directly started to influence his apertures.

Soon after, the bottleneck of his Nose Aperture started to loosen up.

You could regard the bottleneck of the Nose Aperture as a thick iron gate. A cultivator needed to continuously acc.u.mulate qi and blood in the aperture, and once it was full, they could rely on the qi and blood energy to smash the gate open.

But, under the effects of the strange energy of this black stone, the thick iron gate started to weaken. From an iron gate, it first changed into a wooden one… then, it became a paper gate!

And a paper gate only needed a light push to be broken through!

It was a very rare opportunity that shouldn’t be wasted!

Song Shuhang ate one of the qi and blood pills he had brought along with him. Afterward, he started to run about in the terraced field-like mountain slope.

He used the ❮Virtuous Man’s Ten Thousand Mile Walk❯, ❮Basic Buddhist Fist Technique❯, and the supplementary technique ❮Immovable Body of the Buddha❯ to adjust the quant.i.ty of qi and blood inside his body.

Then, he poured all the extra qi and blood into his third aperture, the Nose Aperture.

The ghost spirit inside the Heart Aperture also reacted and decided to help Song Shuhang on its own initiative, sending a stream of pure qi and blood inside his Nose Aperture. This increased his overall energy of 10%.

After three rounds of the ❮Basic Buddhist Fist Technique❯, the quant.i.ty qi and blood in the Nose Aperture had reached the maximum level and was about to overflow.

And, just in this fas.h.i.+on, the fearsome ‘bottleneck’ was breached as though it was nothing.

The third aperture, the Nose Aperture, was open!

Song Shuhang inhaled some fresh air.

When cultivators opened their first aperture, the Heart Aperture, they would complete their foundation and start walking on the path of a cultivator.

When they opened their second aperture, the Eye Aperture, their eyesight would be strengthened.

And when they opened the Nose Aperture, their sense of smell would be enhanced.

However, after having your eyesight strengthened, you had many advantages. But after having your sense of smell enhanced, you had many things to worry about.

Before reaching the Third Stage Realm, cultivators were unable to control their sense of smell freely—this time, if a ‘stinking pill’ were to fall next to Song Shuhang, that foul smell would be enhanced by a hundred, thousand, or even tens of thousands of times. It would suffice to make Song Shuhang directly faint.

Of course, it also had many advantages. Aside from enhancing your sense of smell, once you had opened your Nose Aperture, after every breath, you would inhale the wandering ‘spiritual qi’ in the surrounding area into your body. Part of it would be stored inside your Nose Aperture; another part would integrate with your body, strengthening it.

In other words, after opening the Nose Aperture, taking a breath was the same as cultivating!

It was truly a wonderful feeling!

The only problem was that Song Shuhang didn’t unlock the innate skill of the Nose Aperture. But, there was no rush. After all, he could unlock one while opening his Mouth and Ear Apertures.

After opening his eyes, Song Shuhang greedily breathed, wanting to inhale as much ‘spiritual qi’ as possible inside his body!

In the next instant...

”Ugh… this smell!” Song Shuhang threw up. While inhaling the spiritual qi, he also inhaled the burnt smell coming from the remains of the tractor.

At this time, he felt as though his face was glued to the place where this burnt smell was coming from.

Opening the Nose Aperture had many advantages… and many disadvantages!

Song Shuhang heaved a sigh.

Afterward, he weighed the black stone in his hand. At this time, he was almost certain that this was the same enlightenment stone that Senior White and True Monarch Yellow Mountain were talking about.

Just by standing next to the stone, he could feel the bottlenecks of his apertures weakening. Moreover, when he gazed at the stone, Song Shuhang felt an endless stream of disordered information enter his brain.

He was unable to describe this information with words, but it was as though he had been suddenly enlightened.

After this enlightenment, he discovered that his comprehension in regards to the ❮Basic Buddhist Fist Technique❯, ❮True Self Meditation Scripture❯, ❮Virtuous Man’s Ten Thousand Mile Walk❯, and ❮Immovable Body of the Buddha❯ had become much deeper.

He believed that if he were to use these techniques again, there would be even more changes.

”The key to wealth lies in taking risks, right?” Song Shuhang muttered as he looked at the area where the terrifying explosion had taken place.

The calamity of the meteorite falling from the sky was directed against Daoist Priest Cloudy Mist.

And, this sudden explosion should have been his calamity, right? And the reward should precisely be this enlightenment stone.

❄️❄️❄️

”Did he break through? He broke through just by holding that stone?” The eyes of the onion spirit lit up—if she were to get a hold of that stone, she too would be able to quickly increase her strength.
