Chapter 36: Extract Reward, Half-step Grandmaster - Simulate the Heavens: My Talent Can Be Infinitely Stacked

"Acupoints? Could it be that the realm above the Innate Realm is about opening up acupoints within the body?"

Zheng Qian looked at the conjecture about the realm above the Innate Realm on the subtitles in front of him, a gleam of light flashing in his eyes.

Although he wasn't even at the Innate Realm in reality, he strongly agreed with the subtitles' guess about the realm above the Innate Realm.

After all, besides flesh, blood, bones, and marrow, the human body consists of the Dantian, meridians, and acupoints.

The Dantian and main meridians of a Innate Realm peak expert have already been developed to their limits. If one wants to continue improving, wouldn't they have to delve into acupoints?

But how many acupoints are there within the human body?

Not to mention a thousand, there are at least seven or eight hundred.

Although most of them are insignificant minor acupoints, the number of major acupoints still exceeds one hundred.

And acupoints are very fragile. If one opens them haphazardly, the consequences would be severe.

Therefore, opening acupoints must be a very precise task, and there must be a specific order.

But even if one only opens those hundred or so major acupoints, the various possible sequences would be mind-boggling.

Wanting to explore them on one's own, unless one possesses great luck, it would be almost impossible.

Zheng Qian didn't think that he in the simulation had any great luck!

Therefore, if he wanted to break through, he could only rely on the wisdom of his predecessors.


[Year 29: After months of exploration and research, although your strength is still stagnant, you have roughly determined from the Sunflower Manual and Tai Chi Fist Scripture that the realm above the Innate Realm should involve opening up the 108 major acupoints throughout the body.

As for the specific order of opening and the method for opening each acupoint, you have no idea.

However, even if you knew, you wouldn't be able to use it for now.

Because to officially begin opening acupoints, you need to first compress and purify your own Innate True Qi.

Just like breaking through from the Houtian Realm to the Innate Realm, there is an intermediate Half-Step Innate Realm transitional period.]

[Year 30: Combining the records in the Sunflower Manual and Tai Chi Fist Scripture, you successfully improved your Sun Swallowing Divine Art and successfully condensed a force that is even more powerful and domineering than Innate True Qi.

You call it 'Gang Qi'.

However, although you have successfully condensed a strand of Gang Qi, you dare not use it easily.

It's not that you're unwilling, but that you really don't dare.

Because that strand of Gang Qi is too domineering. You had only just mobilized it into your meridians when your meridians transmitted bursts of stinging pain, scaring you into quickly retracting it back into your Dantian Sea of Qi and surrounding it with Innate True Qi.

This experiment also reminded you of why Dongfang Bubai put on a posture of being willing to die together with you that day, even though she knew she was no match for you.

Clearly, she must have already condensed Gang Qi within her body at that time.

However, the power of Gang Qi is too domineering and tyrannical. Unless it is a matter of life and death, she would not dare to use it casually.]

[Year 31: After a year of arduous cultivation, you have once again condensed twelve strands of Gang Qi, and the number of Gang Qi in your body has reached thirteen.]

[Year 32: After another year of arduous cultivation, you have successfully condensed twelve more strands of Gang Qi, and the number of Gang Qi in your body has reached twenty-five.]

[Year 33: After another year of arduous cultivation, you have only condensed eleven strands of Gang Qi.

At this time, the number of Gang Qi in your body has reached thirty-six, but this is also the limit that your Dantian Sea of Qi can accommodate.

You have also tried to continue condensing Gang Qi, but when the Gang Qi is about to take shape, your Dantian Sea of Qi transmits bursts of stinging pain.

When you dissipate that strand of Gang Qi, this stinging pain immediately disappears without a trace.

Not believing it, you experimented a total of three times, but the results were the same each time.

This also confirms that the number of Gang Qi that can be accommodated in your Dantian Sea of Qi has really reached its limit.]

[Year 34: You begin to study how to use Gang Qi to open up the 108 major acupoints in the body.

But just the first experiment caused you to suffer a serious injury, and it took you more than five months to recover.

At the end of Year 34, your father passed away. You returned home to observe filial piety for your father and, by the way, continue to study how to open acupoints.]

[Year 35, July: You experiment with opening acupoints again.

Unfortunately, it still ends in failure, and you are injured again.]

[Year 36: Not believing in fate, you continue to experiment with how to use Gang Qi to open acupoints, but it ultimately ends in failure.

You are injured again as a result.]

[Year 42: After years of research and experimentation, you still haven't been able to open up any acupoints with Gang Qi, which makes you feel somewhat disheartened.

In the same year, your mother passed away. You continue to observe filial piety for your mother while studying the method of opening acupoints.]

[Year 55: Years of using your body for experiments have caused your old illnesses to relapse, and they collapse you like a landslide.

A month later, you die of illness on Mount Hua.]

[You are dead. The simulation is over.]

"Huh? I died just like that?" Zheng Qian was a little stunned as he looked at the ending of this simulation.

He didn't expect that he, a dignified peak Innate Realm expert, would actually kill himself in the end...


[Ding! The simulation is over. The host's evaluation for this simulation is: 95 points, Perfect.]

[Based on the host's rating, you can choose five of the following options as rewards:

1. Green Talent: Simplified Purple Haze Divine Skill Body (With this talent, the host can cultivate the simplified Purple Haze Divine Skill anywhere in the future).

2. Half-step Grandmaster Realm Strength.

3. Combat Experience.

4. Life Experience.

5. Sun Swallowing Divine Art (Perfect Level).

6. Dugu Nine Swords (Great Accomplishment Level).

7. Sunflower Manual (Entry Level).

8. Yi Jin Jing (Great Accomplishment Level).

9. Star Absorbing Great Method (Great Accomplishment Level).

10. ...

11. Jade Breaking Saber (Perfect Level).]

"Tsk tsk, more than eight hundred options? That's really a lot..." Zheng Qian looked at the eight or nine hundred options and was amazed.

However, he had expected this.

After all, in order to cultivate the Dugu Nine Swords, he had collected almost all the martial arts techniques in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer world.

As for his rating, this time he had almost turned the original plot upside down, and his strength had reached the limit that the world could accommodate, so it would be abnormal if he didn't get a perfect rating.

Then, he made his choice without hesitation: "I choose 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6!"

Talent is naturally a must.

This talent is of no use to him in reality, but it is of great use to him in the simulation.

With this talent, he will be able to break through to the peak of the late Houtian realm in the simulation at the fastest speed in the future, which will greatly save his cultivation time in the simulation.
