Chapter 37: Chapter 34 Flawless Body, Ten Million Pounds!
When the Cycle Heaven Realm reached Perfection with 54 meridians, it meant an additional 4320 cycles of strength, which was over eight hundred thousand jin of colossal force!
However, the royal family had access to the “Dong Huang Scripture,” Dayu’s top Meridian Opening Skill, capable of opening 62 meridians, adding 8 meridians of Cycle Heaven strength which, when converted, provided only about 600,000 jin of extra force.
But this was not Li Hao’s limit.
The Great Yin Channel was worth ten meridians, equivalent to 2480 cycles, which was close to 500,000 jin!
In addition, the Meridian Opening Skill that Li Hao practiced was not just the Dragon River Divine Meridian; the Nine Revolutions Starry Sky Skill was also a Meridian Opening Skill, along with three mid-to-high-tier Meridian Opening Techniques and several lower-tier ones.
However, those lower-tier ones only opened the easiest meridians, which were already covered by the mid-to-high-tier techniques, rendering them ineffective.
But the Nine Revolutions Starry Sky Skill, combined with the three mid-to-high-tier techniques, enabled Li Hao to open up major meridians not covered by the Dragon River Divine Meridian, bringing his total to 69 types of opened meridians!
He had already surpassed the number of meridians opened by the “Dong Huang Scripture” of the royal family!
Li Hao was not yet satisfied. Currently, he planned to rely on his own physical insights to deduce the fourth layer of the “Primordial Skill” and break through the Flawless Body!
‘The first chapter gathers the power of Yin and Yang from heaven and earth, the second layer encompasses the celestial stars, the third layer the hard-to-notice Mystic Veins within the human body. For the fourth layer, I hope to open the Great Yang Meridian and combine the Yin and Yang channels!’
Li Hao’s ideas were not whimsical; with the insights from the fifth stage of the Physical Body Path, he considered himself half a Grandmaster in Body Refinement.
What is a Grandmaster? It is someone who can create martial arts and establish their own schools!
How the fourth layer of the original “Primordial” should be cultivated, Li Hao did not know; nor did he need to. It was likely that the Li Family had not been able to gather the complete scripture for years, and it had probably been destroyed, becoming dust in history.
If that was the case, he would just continue writing a new chapter for this top-tier Body Refinement Technique!
Let the pearl no longer be covered in dust!
Several days later.
By the Blackwater Demon Lake.
Li Hao sat outside the Fishing Terrace when suddenly, an insight struck him, his Blood Qi surged, and bones beneath his skin subtly trembled. The Qi Force in his body danced back and forth within the 69 major meridians, eventually rushing with immense pressure to the crown of his head, almost causing his brain to burst!
This was an exceedingly dangerous endeavor, but Li Hao’s control over his body was extremely fine-tuned; he could even fold his ears shut and move each bone as flexibly as his fingers, exerting force at will!
With a thunderous crash, his brain seemed to vibrate, and he was assailed by waves of swelling and pain.
Li Hao gritted his teeth and endured until that powerful Qi Force suddenly found an escape, rushing out before returning through the same gap, creating a cycle inside his body!
A gleam of brilliant light shone in Li Hao’s eyes, filled with excitement and agitation.
At last, it was done!
The Great Yin Channel was a wandering meridian, appearing randomly anywhere in the body at different times, making it extremely difficult to locate and control. Hence, it was called the Mystic Vein, also implying the elusive and mysterious.
But the Great Yang Meridian was fixed, located inside the skull.
Comparatively, the Great Yang Meridian was even more dangerous than the Great Yin Channel. Nobody dared to try opening it; failure could result in idiocy or disability at best, or at worst, a burst skull leading to instant death!
While a single meridian could account for the strength of ten, the enormous risk involved to gain just a little more power deterred ninety-nine percent of people from attempting it.
The reason being, almost all who had tried failed.
Only certain Martial Arts fanatics and unrivaled geniuses would even consider engaging in such madness!
Now, with the Great Yang Meridian opened, Li Hao instantly felt as if the Mystic Vein had found an anchor and no longer drifted around. Instead, it gradually approached the Great Yang Meridian, the two intertwining.
“Yin and Yang combined, I shall call the fourth layer, Yin and Yang… no, Flawless Body!”
Li Hao summoned the interface, and as his will commanded, the entry for Primordial Skill on the interface actually advanced to the Fourth Layer, named Flawless Body, Minor Accomplishment!
He immediately circulated the Yin and Yang Dual Pulse, repeatedly transferring the Qi Force within his body to familiarize himself with the process.
Soon, under the entanglement of Yin and Yang, a faint special vortex of power emerged.
Through the swirl, Li Hao seemed to glimpse a golden light within his skull.
He tried to reach it with his Qi Force, only to realize it was extremely distant, far beyond his grasp.
“Legend has it that there are a total of 108 major meridians in the human body; if all of them were opened, perhaps… I might be able to touch that golden light,” Li Hao thought, as a sense of enlightenment washed over him.
This was an insight from the Physical Body Path, enriched by a wealth of cultivation memories, giving him an understanding of the body that was beyond ordinary people.
Body Refining is not simple, nor is it as unpromising as the elders said. On the contrary, Li Hao felt that the tiers of Body Refining Techniques within Listening Rain Tower were inadequate; even the Thousand Jiaos Holy Body placed at the sixth floor could advance to the Soul Succession Realm only by its fourth layer!
And the other Cultivation Methods aimed directly for the top.
There were multiple reasons why Body Refiners were not highly valued including the difficulty of cultivation; Li Hao also believed the scarcity of techniques was a factor.
If the techniques collected by the Li Family were so few and far between, what about elsewhere?
Li Hao looked at the interface; the previous Flawless Body Minor Accomplishment had now become Great Accomplishment!
The intersection of the Yin and Yang Dual Pulse seemed to connect all the major meridians, allowing all the Qi Force to be instantly concentrated and orchestrated within, like erecting a Dragon Spine in the body!
Li Hao tried it out and suddenly threw a punch.
With a whoosh, the punch whipped through the air like the roar of a tiger, actually pressing down the surface of the water several zhang ahead, creating waves and ripples seven or eight meters in diameter!
If this punch had really hit solidly, it would have been like a cannonball hitting the water, bursting forth with a tremendous splash!
Li Hao was slightly stunned and shock shone in his eyes.
Through the refined sensations of his flesh, he knew just how terrifying the power of his punch was.
With the full strength of his major vessels condensed, his power had doubled!
You should know that at this moment, with his Yin and Yang Dual Pulse condensed, and along with the 69 major vessels he had originally cultivated, it’s as if he had 89 major vessels.
With each vessel circulating 248 times, his body’s strength had already reached 4.5 million jin!
Under the doubled burst, it was close to 9 million jin!!
This was almost reaching the divine power of 10 million jin, and even a Zhou Tian Realm True Dragon wouldn’t possess such fierce strength.
Even royal talents, wielding top-notch luck and the Meridian Opening Skill, only have a strength of 2 million jin, unless they also activate two major vessels. If there’s only one, they lack the ability to instantly condense the energy of all major vessels and unleash double the power!
“No wonder that uncle of mine is so terrifying, with both pulses converging to instantly double the strength—too frightening,” Li Hao murmured.
Bright and peculiar lights burst forth in Li Hao’s eyes. He dared not imagine how formidable it would be if all 108 vessels in his body were developed!
You must realize, an ordinary martial artist at the Zhou Tian Realm would have only 20,000 jin of strength.
Although that’s the lower limit, the very lowest level of existence, 90 percent of warriors at the Tenth Layer of the Zhou Tian Realm had at least several hundred thousand jin of strength. However, compared to Li Hao, the gap was still too vast.
“With my current strength, I could easily crush those elite Cycle Realm soldiers from the Yuan Camp, even at the Tenth Layer,” Li Hao thought to himself.
Elite soldiers from the Yuan Camp at Tenth Layer only had a massive strength of 500,000 jin, appearing as mere children before him.
Royal talents were four times stronger than the soldiers from the Yuan Camp, and he was four times stronger than those royal talents!
Li Hao retracted his fist and regulated his breath.
Having just unleashed double the power of Yin and Yang, he felt a significant consumption of physical strength which was not sustainable for regular use. However, it was enough to deliver a fatal blow in a critical exchange.
When his body had relaxed and recovered, Li Hao looked toward the demon lake but did not see Second Uncle’s figure. He said he went to track the old dragon’s trail in the demon lake; who knows where he had ended up going.
This demon lake stretched for thousands of miles, with deep waters. Hiding a Dragon Demon inside, it really was hard to detect.
At that moment, a faint movement suddenly transmitted over.
Li Hao’s ears twitched, and he quickly turned his head to look, only to see a snow-white figure swaying amidst the withered yellow leaves, as though hiding.
He flashed over to the figure and it turned out to be a snow-white little fox, similar in size to a newborn puppy.
After taking a closer look, Li Hao saw that the little fox did not have any demonic aura—it seemed to be a common wild fox.
“Little guy, how did you get here? Where are your parents?” Li Hao bent down and picked up the little fox from the leaves.
The little fox’s ears had a touch of orange-red, seeming like a mix between a white fox and a red fox. When Li Hao picked it up, it immediately struggled and pushed against his hands with its little paws.
Li Hao placed it on his hand and looked around but did not see any sign of adult foxes. Perhaps the little thing had sneaked out from its nest.
Seeing this, Li Hao put it back on the ground for its parents to find it.
The little fox struggled in the leaves, too small to move swiftly or with agility.
Li Hao smiled and paid it no more heed, returning to the lake to continue fishing.
Before long, a figure flashed back. It was Li Muxiu.
Seeing that his hands were empty, Li Hao knew that the hunt for the Dragon Demon had failed. The old master had tried countless times over the past half-year, proving that the Dragon Demon was extremely cautious and cunning. To cultivate to a level that caught Li Muxiu’s attention, it must have lived for thousands of years at least.
“Hmph.”
Seeing Li Hao’s cheerful demeanor, Li Muxiu snorted disapprovingly and said with a flick of his sleeve: “What about you, air force?”
“Caught a small one, in the Power Passage Realm,” said Li Hao with a he-he.
Li Muxiu rolled his eyes, even more annoyed.
As the sun set in the west, Li Muxiu, in a hurry, could only fish up a Power Passage Realm fish demon to avoid the risk of returning empty-handed and then took Li Hao back to Qingzhou City.
Before leaving, Li Hao noticed that the little fox had crawled to a distant place and yet was still not found by its parents. He asked the old master to help check, only to find a pool of blood and some snow-white fox fur after a search. From the looks of the scene, the adult fox had been eaten by some demon beast.
Such occurrences were common in the wild. Li Hao sighed, found the little fox struggling to climb cluelessly around, and brought it back to Qingzhou City with him.
In the yellowed fallen leaves of the Mountain and River Courtyard, a touch of snow-white was added henceforth.
