Chapter 170: 137, the end is near

The dilapidated Liu Family mansion.

The basement.

Liu Chuanwu took two steps at a time, hastening to a bronze ancient coffin filled with the aura of vicissitude, where he stopped.

Gazing at the bronze ancient coffin, he said with respectful excitement, “Pavilion Master, I have finally found a peerless genius who harbors the hope of opening his acupoints!”

There was no response from the bronze ancient coffin.

The basement fell silent.

Liu Chuanwu didn’t mind, and continued to speak, “This genius has just turned eighteen this year. He has had the translated version of the Blood Tempering Technique for only three months, yet he has already achieved Body Tempering Great Accomplishment once and is now undergoing the second Body Tempering.”

“With such physical talent, in the future, he will certainly be able to break through the shackles of common levels as a pureblood human and evolve into an advanced-level creature, a rare-level creature, or even an epic-level creature.”

“By then, you will be able to rely on him to transfer Qi-Blood to you every day to maintain your life, so you no longer have to barely survive in this cramped bronze ancient coffin.”

“And with a powerful you to protect him, with you and that genius leading the way for Tianren Pavilion, it will surely flourish on Earth, leading the people of Earth in an ascendence of flesh and blood!”

Liu Chuanwu spoke with great excitement.

But from beginning to end, the Pavilion Master he spoke of gave no response at all.

The moment turned somewhat eerie.

It was as if looking at a mentally disturbed person muttering to himself in the confined, dim basement, a chilling sight indeed.

Seeing that the other party remained unresponsive, Liu Chuanwu’s brow furrowed slightly.

But that was all he did, without any other superfluous actions.

He simply stood quietly in front of the coffin the whole time, waiting for the person inside the bronze ancient coffin to respond.

About three minutes passed.

Finally, a weak female voice echoed from the bronze ancient coffin:

“Mm…”

That was the only response.

Then, everything quieted down completely, falling into utter silence.

The woman inside the bronze ancient coffin fell back into a deep slumber.

The single word “Mm” she just uttered had exhausted all of her energy for the day, leaving her powerless to make any further sound.

At this, Liu Chuanwu’s brows deeply furrowed.

The woman’s body within the bronze ancient coffin was growing weaker by the day.

Decades ago, when the ancient and weathered bronze ancient coffin was discovered in a ruin, the woman inside could still talk intermittently.

And today, decades later, the woman had weakened to the point where even uttering a simple phoneme took her up to half a minute to muster.

This state… it felt as if death was closing in.

Thinking this, Liu Chuanwu shook his head involuntarily.

He quickly left the basement, leaving a quiet environment for the woman in the bronze ancient coffin to rest deeply.

Once he exited the basement,

Liu Chuanwu couldn’t help but sigh, “Ah, if only we could communicate normally.”

“In that case, I wouldn’t have to waste so much time studying the Acupoint Chapter of the Blood Tempering Technique.”

“I could just directly ask the Pavilion Master, the pioneer of the Pureblood Human Path, and seek her guidance on cultivating the Blood Tempering Technique, both simple and efficient.”

The more Liu Chuanwu spoke, the more he felt it was a pity.

Back when he first moved the bronze ancient coffin into the mansion’s basement, the woman’s consciousness was still relatively clear, and her energy was sufficient to communicate with the outside world.

Unfortunately, at that time, because of the language barrier, communication was difficult.

By the time they managed to somewhat understand each other’s language and could communicate fairly smoothly,

The consciousness of the woman in the coffin suddenly became blurred, and her condition grew weaker and weaker.

Until now, she had weakened to this extent, having to fall into a slumber after voicing a single phoneme, making communication impossible.

“I hope Zi Chen manages to evolve into an advanced-level creature with the flesh and blood of a pureblood human before the Pavilion Master completely perishes,”

“Then, he can transfer Qi-Blood to maintain her life, keeping her consciousness clear.”

“Once the Pavilion Master steps in, the Blood Tempering Technique will definitely become more widespread, and its upper limits can be developed even higher.”

Liu Chuanwu muttered to himself.

Elsewhere.

The research institute.

Lin Zichen and Song Yuyan had just finished sparring and were now sitting on the sofa, chatting casually.

“Zi Chen, you have already achieved Body Tempering Great Accomplishment once in the Blood Tempering Technique, so you can try to open the Acupoints now. I will teach you the latest method of Acupoint opening that I’ve researched; give it a try and see if you can succeed.”

“Alright, I’ll give it a try.”

“Come, I’ll explain, and you listen carefully.”

Song Yuyan began the teaching session, articulating clearly, “The human body has a total of 366 Acupoints, scattered in various locations within our bodies.”

“According to the records of the Blood Tempering Technique, the easiest Acupoints to open are the four that are located around our heart.”

“What you need to do now is to first sense the four Acupoints around the heart, and then control the Qi-Blood to strike at them, at a frequency of ten times per second.”

“The stronger the impact, the better, but be careful not to hit the heart itself, otherwise it will be so painful that your heart may cramp or even possibly stop beating on the spot.”

“Also pay attention to these points…”

“The first point…”

“The second point…”

Song Yuyan shared all the insights and experiences she had acquired over the years in attempting to open the Acupoints, speaking in detail for nearly half an hour before finishing.

Feeling that she hadn’t missed anything, she then said to Lin Zichen, “Well, that’s all there is to it. Now try to feel for the four Acupoints around your heart.”

“No need, I already sensed them during the summer vacation. I know the location of all 366 Acupoints inside my body; I can directly start to strike the Acupoints according to your method.”

Having said that, Lin Zichen concentrated and began controlling his Qi-Blood to strike the four Acupoints around his heart.

With the frequency of ten times a second, he exerted as much force as he could.

He continued the high-intensity strikes for over ten minutes.

However, the four Acupoints around his heart didn’t budge at all, and he couldn’t open them.

The only sensation on the Acupoints was pain, a very intense pain.

It hurt so much that he clenched his teeth and broke out into a cold sweat on his forehead.

After pausing to rest, he tried a few more times.

But the result was still the same. It simply didn’t work; he couldn’t open the Acupoints.

“It’s okay, it’s very normal not to feel anything. After all, you have only achieved Body Tempering Great Accomplishment once; maybe your physical strength is not yet sufficient to open the Acupoints. Of course, it’s also possible that the method I taught you is incorrect. In any case, there’s still plenty of time, and there’s no need to rush.”

Song Yuyan worried that Lin Zichen might be discouraged by this, and comforted him in her role as a caring big sister.

After all, Lin Zichen’s talent was astonishing, and ever since he joined Tianren Pavilion, everything had been smooth sailing. A sudden setback could potentially unbalance him.

However, Lin Zichen’s heart was completely unfazed; he did not need comforting at all.

He was very clear within that failure was normal; it would have been strange had he succeeded.

How long had he been practicing the Blood Tempering Technique?

Less than three months.

He was already very satisfied with his current progress.

As for the Acupoints, he would study them slowly in the future; eventually, he would succeed.

Even if he didn’t, it didn’t matter because he wasn’t obligated to practice the Blood Tempering Technique.

If all else failed, he could always rely on “use it or lose it” to gradually improve.

As long as the training time was long enough and the intensity high enough, he could grind his way to becoming an advanced-level creature.

And regarding the Blood Tempering Technique, if he managed to successfully temper his body five times in the end, then the time spent would have been worth it, even extremely profitable.
