Stone-Flicking Devil Meridians

The feeling was strange, like someone was using an extremely fine file to slowly grind his bones.

There was no pain; instead, there was a deep, throbbing ache that went deep into the bone marrow.

The Hu Mang could clearly feel that its bones were undergoing a subtle change—black lines began to seep into the originally dense bone. These lines, like tree roots, slowly grew, extended, and intertwined inside the bones, permanently fixing the essence of Demonic Qi within them.

This process lasted for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. When the last wisp of Demonic Qi was completely absorbed by the bones, the Hu Mang opened its eyes and exhaled a long breath of turbid Turbid Qi. That breath condensed into a grayish-white mist arrow in the air, which lingered for a long time.

He moved his shoulders and arms, and his bones made a series of fine crackling sounds; he could feel that his Root Bone, tempered by Demonic Qi, had become more resilient and denser, and their affinity for and capacity to contain Demonic Qi had significantly increased.

He glanced at the Mid-Grade Spirit Stone in his hand again; he had actually used most of it.

This consumption is even faster than in normal cultivation.

Ten thousand silver dollars are gone.

Hu Mang shook his head, then took out a Mid-Grade Spirit Stone and entered a deep drug-taking state.

He had informed Huang Jiayou before he came, saying that since he was leaving Heavenly Gate again, he wanted to relax and enjoy the scenery with Huang Jiayou for the next few days.

His mother had no objections.

So for the next few days, Hu Mang was able to devote himself to seclusion and cultivation; that feeling of "explosive medicinal power" repeated itself four or five times in those three days.

With almost every repetition, Hu Mang became more aware of the existence of the "Seven Absolutes Devil Meridians" within his body.

At first, it was just a vague, almost imperceptible sensation, like looking at a distant lamp through a thick fog; but as the medicinal power repeatedly washed over him, the outline of that demonic vein became clearer and clearer in his inner vision, like a dark river lurking deep within his meridians, being awakened little by little.

On the fifth time, Hu Mang finally sensed three obvious hidden demonic evolutions within his body.

One point is above the Niwan Palace, which is the center of the forehead.

One is near the large intestine, and the other is near the stomach.

"The veins near the large intestine are called 'Swimming Shrimp Pulse,' and the veins near the stomach are called 'Leaking Roof Pulse.'"

A faint pulse indicates impaired large intestine function – the Swimming Shrimp Pulse

A pulse that is extremely slow, weak, and intermittent indicates a deficiency of stomach qi—the "Leaking Roof Pulse."

This is the pulse pattern of the Seven Absolutes Meridians. Since the Seven Absolutes Devil Meridians and the Seven Absolutes Meridians have some special connection, at least the location is correct.

However, Hu Mang didn't know about the demonic vein in the center of his forehead, because the fatal points of the other seven Seven Absolutes Meridians didn't seem to be on the head.

"However, since it's related to the brain, it should have the highest priority."

Without saying a word, Hu Mang gathered the medicinal power and rushed it towards this demonic vein.

The demonic vein remained completely still during the first impact, as if it had crashed into an invisible stone wall.

A muffled buzzing sound filled Hu Mang's mind, his vision blurred with stars, and a faint smell of rust filled his nostrils; he did not stop, gritting his teeth to steady his mind, gathering the medicinal power a second time, and making another attack.

The second time, the demonic vein loosened slightly, like a hair-thin crack appearing on a stone wall.

The Hu Mang made its fifth attempt, the third and fourth, each time squeezing out the full potency of the medicine and causing fine beads of sweat to appear on its forehead.

When the fifth impact landed, the crack finally widened to a critical point. Hu Mang clearly heard an extremely faint cracking sound in his mind, like a corner of a piece of jade that had been sealed for thousands of years being chipped open. Immediately afterwards, a cold airflow with the unique cold and hard texture of stone surged out from the crack and slowly spread along the inside of his skull.

The Stone-Flicking Devil Meridians has opened!

In that instant, the Hu Mang's senses underwent a subtle change.

His hearing became much more acute.

He could hear the faint sounds of airflow in the ventilation ducts of the underground factory, the humming of electricity passing through the wires in the walls, and even the rustling of earthworms wriggling in the soil above his head.

His vision also changed.

The once dimly lit underground factory became brighter in his eyes, not because the light became stronger, but because he could "see" more things.

He can see the direction of the Spiritual Qi channels in the walls and the trajectory of dust particles floating in the air.

The whole world became clearer and more three-dimensional in his eyes.

More importantly, he felt his mind become clearer than ever before. The Mnemonic and Cultivation Method that he used to have to ponder and study repeatedly now appeared in his mind automatically, each word clear and each sentence distinct, as if someone had lit a lamp in his mind, illuminating those obscure and difficult scriptures.

He could feel that his understanding and comprehension of demonic Cultivation Method had improved to a new level in that instant.

The Stone-Flicking Devil Meridians – its veins are firm and solid at the top of the fingertips, its roots concealing spiritual energy. Opening its orifices is like opening a cold stone, capable of transforming stone into spirit, clearing away the Heavenly Devil Field, and penetrating the True Intention of demonic scriptures.

Then, a faint, almost imperceptible vein, somewhere between reality and illusion, appeared within the body.

It originates at the location of the Heavenly Devil Mysterious Pass behind the glabella, like an invisible thread extending backward from the center of the forehead, passing through the complex structure inside the skull, descending along the outer side of the spine, and finally connecting to the Mingmen point in the lower back; the entire demonic vein is almost imperceptible in the body, only when it is fully activated will it reveal a cold, jade-like texture, as if a cold iron needle is piercing from the forehead all the way to the lower back.

Like a sword of wisdom (the demonic version).

Hu Mang pondered the mystery within.

"The Stone-Flicking Devil Meridians, the Stone-Flicking Devil Meridians, it turns out it means Stone-Flicking into jade."

"What a peculiar demonic vein! It doesn't enhance Spiritual Qi Law Power or magical power, but rather comprehension."

According to the relevant information passed down through bloodlines, this is an innate stone-type demonic vein. The root of the vein is located at the Mingmen point in the lower back, and the tip of the vein runs straight through the Tianmo Heavenly Devil Mysterious Pass on the forehead. The vein is connected from top to bottom like a vertically inserted demonic stone sword, which is a natural Root Bone for enlightenment in the demonic path.

Opening the meridians is like drawing a sword!

An ordinary stone sword suddenly unleashed a dazzling sharpness!

"This meridian begins at the lifeline and extends all the way to the gateway to the demonic path. Once it is fully opened, when comprehending demonic Cultivation Method, High Antiquity demonic runes, and incomplete demonic scriptures, the demonic consciousness will be able to break through barriers like stone, directly penetrating falsehoods and reaching the core."

"Moreover, his perception of the Heavenly Devil Dao far surpasses that of others of the same level, and he can often draw inferences from similar cases and deduce and derive Heavenly Demonic Secret Techniques on his own."

"For example, after penetrating the profound barrier, one can directly comprehend the top-tier demonic Divine Ability, the Heavenly Devil Field."

Hu Mang took a deep breath and closed his eyes again.

He channeled the icy, jade-like energy from his Stone-Flicking Devil Meridians, causing it to rise slowly from his lower back, along his spine, through the back of his neck, and directly to the Heavenly Devil Mysterious Pass behind his forehead.

The airflow paused for a moment at the entrance, as if knocking on a tightly closed door—then, the door opened.

There were no warning signs whatsoever.

Within a radius of three zhang centered on the Hu Mang, everything underwent subtle changes in that instant.

The hum of the ventilation ducts, the buzzing of electrical appliances, and the sound of water flowing from the pipes in the walls all vanished in an instant, as if an invisible hand had pressed a mute button; it wasn't that the sounds became quieter, but rather that all sounds were isolated beyond a certain boundary, forming an absolutely silent zone.

The white light emitted by the fluorescent lights seemed to become viscous when it entered the area of Heavenly Devil Field, as if the light itself was traveling through water, resulting in an extremely subtle refraction and delay; the edges of objects began to blur, as if looking at things through a thin, flowing layer of water, making the entire space appear both real and unreal, like a zone between wakefulness and dreams.

Hu Mang could clearly feel that his Divine Sense had been greatly enhanced in this area.

He can not only perceive the position and shape of surrounding objects, but also their internal structure and material.

It can even affect the structure within it.

He can interfere with the flow of Spiritual Qi channels in the walls, weaken the insulation of cables buried underground, and even decompose the chemical composition of airborne dust particles.

Everything that is hidden or concealed is exposed and disturbed under the shroud of the Heavenly Devil Field.

With a single Hu Mang, without any Law Power fluctuations, the nearly one-ton industrial-grade drug cutting machine was lifted into the air and then instantly shattered into pieces with a twist of its five Hu Mang. From there, the pieces continued to shatter into countless metal parts and steel plates, which spun rapidly around the Hu Mang.

However, as the three-foot-long demonic light shot out from the Hu Mang's eyes, the Heavenly Devil Force Field reversed, and in the next moment, all the parts and fragments began to be reshaped.

A moment later, a perfectly intact herb cutting machine reappeared in the same spot.

"Ordinary materials are fine, but what about Law Artifact?"

Hu Mang took out a spindle-shaped magical Law Artifact from his Storage Bag.

The thought crossed my mind, and the next moment, without any warning, the thing shattered into pieces.

Then, as the pores on the Hu Mang's forehead lit up, the Law Artifact reassembled in the next moment.

There wasn't a single crack.

Even the Law Technique patterns can be clearly reproduced.

"Law Artifact are fine, but what about Spirit Artifact?"

Hu Mang then took out another Spirit Artifact and, following the Spirit Artifact, restored it without showing any signs of damage.

However, after carefully sensing it, Hu Mang still noticed something was wrong; the spiritual energy of the Spirit Artifact had decreased by 30%.

"So, spirituality cannot be restored? But what if that's the case?"

As the Hu Mang unleashed its full power to activate the Heavenly Devil Field, the spiritual energy within the Spirit Artifact slowly returned under the illumination of its demonic light.

However, once he left the Heavenly Devil Field, the spiritual energy he had regained vanished instantly.

That's right, this "spirituality" was a disguise of the Hu Mang.

However, within the Heavenly Devil Field, the disguise is actually real, and the Spirit Artifact can truly exert 100% of its effect there.

This maneuver, which blurred the lines between reality and illusion, truly gave Hu Mang a lot of fun.
