Blood Through the Eight Meridians

"But Youyou is right, you still have to take the test, otherwise you won't be able to take the other Immortal Herb. Let's not worry about it, I'll take you to choose."

"Jiaojiao, I'm the examiner! How could you do this to me!"

"That person didn't say anything; he just entrusted the things to you for safekeeping."

"Human, you can just call me Jiaojiao. What's your name? What do you want to improve? I can give you some advice."

"Jiaojiao, my Chen Yuan, and I'm currently a level 60 Quasi-Soul Emperor. It's a pleasure to become your partner."

"Okay, Chen Yuan, I got it. Let me sense your body. Don't resist with your Soul Power, or I won't be able to measure it accurately."

Without wasting words, Infernal Delicate Apricot released her red Soul Power and shot it towards Chen Yuan. The Soul Power covered the surface of Chen Yuan 'Chen Yuan body and carefully sensed his body.

The Infernal Delicate Apricot swayed continuously.

"Hmm, your martial soul is already at the Ultimate Fire. With me joining the fray later, you don't need to worry about fire-attribute herbs."

"It has the aura of a dragon, and its physical abilities are strong. Let me think about it, wait a moment."

The Infernal Delicate Apricot and serene, yet their swaying form reveals that they are actively contemplating.

Seeing that Infernal Delicate Apricot to his side, Chen Yuan simply began cultivating right there.

Within the Sea of Consciousness, Electrolux is observing the valley through Chen Yuan's perspective.

"What? Old Yi, do you want to go out and have a look?"

"No, as you said before, this is the territory of the Sea God, so it's better to be careful."

"Gulu, Xiao Yuan, I sensed the aura of a dragon beneath that spring. Gulu, it's even stronger than the black dragon I saw last time."

"Yes, I know that. That one down there is called the Fire Dragon King. I wonder what its Dragon Soul is like in this era. Let's wait until we're stronger before going down to take a look."

Chen Yuan had not forgotten that ten thousand years later, thanks to the efforts of all the immortal Immortal Herb at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the Dragon Soul of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings was awakened.

Even the Amorous Douluo Zang Xin was no match for him. If it weren't for the Silver Dragon King and the Golden Dragon King being there, those two Dragon Soul would have torn Zang Xin and everyone else to shreds.

Who knows what the Dragon Soul of these two were like ten thousand years ago? If there's any danger, Chen Yuan will be in big trouble.

Anyway, the Fire Dragon King's bones are right below here, he can't escape.

Hmm... there might also be Dragon Core.

If the Fire Dragon King truly produced Dragon Core, it would be far superior to Mu En's Dragon Core.

"Old Yi, shall we try out the Wisdom Soul Ring later?"

"This is indeed a good opportunity to observe the death of a Soul Beast so closely, especially as your Soul Ring. It will allow me to better understand the cultivation rules of your world."

"This has been extremely helpful to my research on Soul Spirit."

One point that Soul Spirit can't avoid is that Soul Ring are only created after Soul Beast dies.

Whether it's a traditional Soul Ring or Soul Spirit, both require the Soul Beast to die. The difference is that Soul Spirit at least preserves the Soul Beast's soul.

Chen Yuan wanted to make the relationship between Soul Master and Soul Beast similar to that between Knights and Mounts in the Holy Demon Continent.

Knights and their mounts are bound together by life and death, complementing each other. Their relationship is even closer than that of husband and wife. The equal contract they form requires the mount's consent, and the blood pact requires the mount to take the initiative to form it.

Just as Chen Yuan was pondering which method was more suitable for Soul Master and Soul Beast on the Douluo Continent, Electrolux suddenly thought of something.

"Chen Yuan, the Soul Power within your body has gradually begun to transform into a liquid state. You'd better take this opportunity to completely liquefy your Soul Power."

"I have some ideas that I need to put into practice after your Soul Power becomes liquid. By the way, later you should put your hand on that flower so I can sense what the Soul Core of your world is."

T

"Good."

After cultivating for a while, Chen Yuan stood up and, before the Fiery Infernal Delicate Apricot Infernal Delicate Apricot could make a decision, went to its side and placed his hand on its true form.

"Jiaojiao, I need to use my Soul Power to examine your body."

"Huh? Oh, what are you going to do? Never mind, just hurry up and don't disturb my thinking."

Electrolux's Divine Sense quickly scanned the body of the Infernal Delicate Apricot, exposing everything about it to Electrolux, especially the Soul Core formed from fiery red solid Soul Power.

In Electrolux's eyes, this Soul Core slowly rotated, constantly absorbing the Heaven and Earth Origin Power Heaven and Earth Origin Power from the outside world, converting it into the fire-attribute Soul Power needed by the Infernal Delicate Apricot.

Having confirmed this, Electrolux's face was full of sarcasm.

He actually thought Soul Core were something high-level and amazing, but isn't this just similar to the Spirit Aperture in his world?

In some aspects, the Soul Core is inferior to the Spirit Aperture. The Spirit Aperture can convert all energy into the energy needed by the owner; the Soul Core can only convert the Heaven and Earth Origin Power.

The Spirit Aperture only stores liquid energy, which needs to be continuously compressed until it becomes a solid Spirit Pill (Spirit Core).

In the world of Electrolux, the strongest beings can have more than nine Spirit Aperture, and according to Chen Yuan, they can have three Soul Core.

These three Soul Core and the first three Spirit Aperture correspond to each other, all located between the eyebrows, in the chest, and in the dantian.

Both worlds possess three states—gas, liquid, and solid—whether it's Soul Power or spiritual power. They also have similar things like Spirit Aperture and Soul Core, and the ability to become a god.

Electrolux even suspected that his original world was actually intricately connected to this one, otherwise how could their cultivation systems be so similar?

After observing the Infernal Delicate Apricot Soul Core of the Fiery Apricot for a while, Electrolux finally understood the cultivation system of this world.

"Chen Yuan, I wonder if you've ever considered practicing the cultivation system from my world?"

"Old Yi, the cultivation systems of the two worlds may have some similarities, but switching cultivation methods is unlikely, isn't it?"

"It's not about switching cultivation methods. I plan to combine the Soul Core from your world with the Spirit Aperture from my world to create a completely new cultivation technique."

"What you need to do is obtain the method by which humans in this world condense Soul Core. I'm 70% confident I can help you condense the prototype of three Soul Core before you reach the Titled Douluo realm in your world."

"Really?!"

The fact that Titled Douluo has already condensed the prototype of a three- Soul Core is equivalent to guaranteeing him a future Limit Douluo with a three- Soul Core!

The Limit Douluo with a Three Soul Core is an invincible existence below the gods in this era! Even Di Tian would be no match for Limit Douluo with a Three Soul Core in many aspects!

After Electrolux finished speaking, Chen Yuan thought about it and realized that they still had to rely on Gong Changlong. Di Tian was Soul Beast, and his method of condensing Soul Core could only be used as a reference.

Gong Changlong is not only Titled Douluo, but also Sea God Pavilion Elder. He must have a complete Soul Core Condensation Method and the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect. If he goes to Ning Tian, he can definitely get it.

It's best to have a backup plan, since no one knows if the Soul Core condensation methods used by these major powers are any different.

Thinking of this, Chen Yuan looked at a tulip in the distance with its petals layered upon each other, its stem upright, and its fragrance emanating from it, giving it a magnificent and luxurious Aromatic Silk Beauty.

It seems that Chen Yuan is going to have the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect completely manipulated.

Hehehe.

It seems that the Aromatic Silk Beauty has already developed sentience by this time. It's too old, so even if it's made into Soul Spirit, it can't be used by ordinary Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda Soul Master, which is a bit of a pity.

At this time, it seems there are quite a few sentient beings within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. The six beings from Douluo III should all exist in this era, but it seems none of them have spoken up.

Perhaps I could carry the Aromatic Silk Beauty with me; after all, plants can continue to grow from the roots of Son of Nature, and I can take it out when the time is right.

"I've got it! You can have this."

The Infernal Delicate Apricot, its true form radiating red light, shot out and, after sifting through a cluster of flowers and plants, finally plucked a large golden chrysanthemum.

The petals of this chrysanthemum are incredibly thick, with a faint hint of fine hairs. It has no fragrance or taste, and the whole thing resembles a work of art forged from gold.

The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, when consumed, can circulate Qi throughout the limbs and unblock the eight meridians, cultivating an indestructible body and greatly enhancing strength and defense.

It is indeed very suitable for Soul Master like Chen Yuan who uses his physical body as a weapon.

It might even help Chen Yuan open up his Eight Extraordinary Meridians. In the Douluo Continent, only the complete version of the Mysterious Heaven Skill in Tang San's possession can definitively open up the Eight Extraordinary Meridians.

"According to the rules, I can't tell you the effects of this herb before you eat it, Chen Yuan. Just tear off the petals one by one and eat them."

"Mmm, Jiaojiao, give it to me."

Tear off the petals of the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum one by one and put them in your mouth. The petals turn into juice as soon as they enter your mouth and go down your throat.

After the liquid entered his stomach, waves of warmth spread from his lower abdomen throughout his limbs and bones, and Chen Yuan felt his body rapidly becoming warm.

At first it was just warm, but after a few breaths, Chen Yuan ate the entire Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, and the warmth turned into scalding heat.

Chen Yuan immediately sat cross-legged in meditation, his Soul Power surging throughout his body.

Chen Yuan's meridians were already incredibly resilient thanks to the constant strengthening from the Heart of Life, so the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum's enhancement of his meridians was merely icing on the cake.

Those small meridians and the most important Eight Extraordinary Meridians that Chen Yuan had not used during his cultivation were instantly opened up with the help of the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum.

Qi circulates through the limbs, and blood flows through the eight extraordinary meridians!

Chen Yuan's physical condition has been improved once again, following the Blazing Pegasus Right Leg Bone that occurred more than twenty years ago.

The moment his Qi and blood were unblocked in the eight meridians, Chen Yuan's Soul Power followed suit, quickly familiarizing himself with these newly created cultivation meridians.

"Call--!"

"Chen Yuan, how are you feeling?"

"Very good, your body is more flexible and stronger."

"That's good. The Immortal Herb I found for you is the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, a perfect match for your robust physique."

"It's a pity you arrived a bit late. If you had come when you were around level 30, you might have been able to level up five or six times at once. With your current Soul Power Level, you'd be lucky to level up even two."

"It's alright. It's just Immortal Herb. Its main purpose is to improve aptitude; increasing Soul Power is secondary. Besides, don't you already have your Soul Ring and Soul Bone?"

"That's right! With your current physical condition, you can withstand a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone. I'll just sacrifice myself to you later. Remember, take my seed with you."

"Yes, don't worry, I won't forget."

"Alright, in that case, let's discuss how to choose the other Immortal Herb. You can still choose seven more."

"Jiaojiao! There are six! Even if we don't count that Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, you have to count yourself!"

At this moment, the Aromatic Silk Beauty raised another protest.

If it could stay in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the Aromatic Silk Beauty would certainly be willing, but seeing the Infernal Delicate Apricot leaving with the current Son of Nature, it was filled with envy and jealousy!

There are only a few people who can speak in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well right now. If Infernal Delicate Apricot leaves, Aromatic Silk Beauty feels that she will be very lonely.

"Shut up! If you keep making noise, I'll have Chen Yuan take you away too!"

"Okay! Okay! You said it Jiaojiao!"

".

Oh no, Chen Yuan is the Son of Nature. Following him is never a bad thing, and he poses no threat to Youyou.

"Chen Yuan, let's ignore it and quickly discuss how to choose seven medicinal herbs."

"?! Jiaojiao, you just said you were going to take me with you! Chen Yuan, I'll give you this book! Take me with you too!"

The Aromatic Silk Beauty exhaled a small white booklet from its petals; the cover was blank.

Turning to the first page, the book introduces various Immortal Herb and poisonous herbs, as well as the lost Poison Chapter of the Tang Sect.

Furthermore, it instructs those who have read the book to leave it behind, and warns that the Poison Chapter should be used with caution.

Upon seeing this, Chen Yuan practically rolled his eyes to the sky.

Whether the Tang Sect's Poison Chapter was lost, or never passed down at all, is something only Tang San himself probably knows.

Upon seeing the line, "Those who wish to join my Tang Sect are not allowed to pass on the Medicine Chapter and Poison Chapter; they may only use them themselves," Chen Yuan was truly speechless. Was Tang San really treating the Tang Sect like dogs?

What use is a sect that primarily relies on poison if it no longer has poison?

After reading the Medicine Chapter Immortal Herb and poisonous herbs, Chen Yuan had no interest in the Tang Sect's Poison Chapter and simply returned the booklet to Aromatic Silk Beauty.

"Let's start with a Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew; it's time I strengthened my Spiritual Power."

Chen Yuan's Spiritual Power is not weak; he ranks among the top among his peers and those at the same cultivation level. However, among all his attributes, Spiritual Power is indeed his weakest point.

Upon hearing Chen Yuan's decision, Infernal Delicate Apricot also thought it was a good idea and guided Chen Yuan to approach a seemingly inconspicuous herb.

The herb was entirely emerald green, but strangely, it had three snow-white leaves with a few clear water droplets on them, like morning dew.

He inhaled the three drops of water, and a refreshing and invigorating aroma filled Chen Yuan's mouth.

After Chen Yuan swallowed the water droplets, the entire herb withered rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Chen Yuan felt a cool sensation rushing through his meridians to his brain, much cooler than if he had eaten a mint.

The cool sensation came and went quickly, and when Chen Yuan opened his eyes again, the world in his eyes had become clearer.

Unfortunately, there was no way to test Spiritual Power in this era, otherwise Chen Yuan would definitely have wanted to see how much his Spiritual Power had increased by the "longing for love" technique.
