Chapter 1321: Three Meridians Evolve Based on Rules of Sky and Land

Spiritual Lake was only dozens of miles long, yet the water inside was filled with spiritual Qi. For normal warriors, their body constitution would be greatly improved, and their refining efficiency would surge after they drank the water.

Zhang Ruochen put the island where Thousand Leaves Saint Core Grass grew into the lake. Suddenly, Spiritual Lake became circular.

Gu Songzi was indeed wicked and cunning, but he was a man of his word.

Gu Songzi continued explaining to Zhang Ruochen, “With the efficacy from Thousand Leaves Saint Core Grass inside the meridian-connecting pill, I can indeed heal your injuries with my mind power. However, no pill saint can return your meridians to the way they were. They’ll be fragmentary to some extent.

“Those fragments are nothing to normal monks, but for someone as talented as you, it’ll affect you anyway. The more you advance, the more effects there’re going to be.”

Meridians, saint meridians and blood meridians weren’t just any threads. Instead, they were threads that came from one thread, and they would extend and multiply, until there were hundreds of, thousands of, and in the end, unlimited threads. They were distributed on every single micro-organism on his body.

Which was why it was impossible to make the three meridians that were exactly like before.

However, he knew that even if his mind power reached level sixty, which meant he became a mind power supreme saint, his blood meridians would only be infinitely close to a hundred percent completed. They would never be truly completed.

To ordinary people, those flaws were nothing. However, to saints, it would slow their refining speed several times.

To supreme saints, they wouldn’t be able to improve their cultivation.

The flaws in his three meridians could destroy Zhang Ruochen’s God’s destiny and the foundation he built in the four realms of martial way. They would outweigh the negative effects caused by taking Buddha Emperor’s sarira, which was fatal to a great talent.

He might turn from a great talent to a mediocre monk.

Though this was within Zhang Ruochen’s expectations, he still felt depressed after hearing it from Gu Songzi.

Qing Mo held her hands tight and asked, “Is there no other way?”

“There is, actually,” Gu Songzi said.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes gleamed as he didn’t expect Gu Songzi to be that great at treating people.

Gu Songzi said, “However, I don’t have the power to do it. Actually, there might be only one person in the world who can accomplish that.”

“Who?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“You.”

Zhang Ruochen was a bit dazed. He said, “Me?”

Gu Songzi nodded and said, “When I was inspecting your body, I found that there’s thick chaos Qi inside. There’s a secret inside your body, isn’t there?”

Zhang Ruochen stared at Gu Songzi’s eyes and turned silent.

“You don’t need to tell me anything about it. I don’t want to know.”

Gu Songzi didn’t like to sound out other people’s secrets. As a pill master, the more he knew about others, the less safe it was for him.

Gu Songzi kept saying, “The three meridians of human beings were only bred after they were born, no matter how mysterious, changeable and complicated they are. However, chaos Qi is natal Qi which can breed everything. It’s more mysterious and unpredictable.”

Zhang Ruochen was smart enough to understand what Gu Songzi meant. He asked, “Are you saying I should breed my three meridians with the chaos Qi inside me?

“That’s right.” Gu Songzi said, “If I am correct, you’ve refined Five Elements Chaotic Body, but that’s postnatal. If you can use your chaos Qi to breed the three meridians and form a natal Five Elements Chaotic Body, your potential will surge, after which your accomplishments will be beyond even my imagination.”

“Natal Five Elements Chaotic Body,” Zhang Ruochen whispered.

It was said that such creatures would only come into being when a world had just been created.

Gu Songzi said, “However, it’s a huge risk for you to take. People’s mind power is not enough to control the chaos. Perhaps you can give rise to a natal Five Elements Chaotic Body, yet it might destroy all your cultivation, rendering you powerless. You don’t need to tell me what you’re going to choose. I’ll give you three days to reach a decision.”

This was a huge decision to make!

If he chose the first one, there would be no risk. However, his potential would fall and he wouldn’t be able to accomplish much in the future.

If he chose the latter one, then he would either have unlimited potential after creating a natal Five Elements Chaotic Body or become an ordinary person.

“I’ll choose the latter. I must control my fate, and there’re many things for me to finish.”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t even hesitate.

Gu Songzi looked appreciative. He nodded and said, “You need to give me three days to make the meridian-breeding pill.”

Zhang Ruochen couldn’t make the three meridians using only his mind power and chaotic Qi. He needed the help of a meridian-breeding pill.”

Zhang Ruochen sat beside Spiritual Lake, recalling all the martial arts classics he had read, including ‘God-Slaying Scripture,’ part of ‘Heavenly Devil Stone Inscription,’ and the most important thing, ‘Emperor Ming Nine-sky Scripture’.

Each of the martial classics represented the exploration of the ancient people, especially the six extraordinary books and ‘Emperor Ming Nine-sky Scripture,’ and they pointed to the origin of the great way. If he could completely comprehend it, he would be able to understand the mysteries of the world.

Using the chaos Qi to create three meridians was almost the same as the world being born.

Zhang Ruochen couldn’t peek at Tianji and comprehend the origin of the major way, so he could only organize all the martial studies in the world, hoping that they would help him.

Three days flew by.

Zhang Ruochen still wasn’t able to understand the rules of the sky and land, yet his martial way was greatly improved as he had lots of new understandings. His mastery of sword master also reached a whole new level as if it was about to make a breakthrough.

Gu Songzi made the meridian-breeding pill and gave it to Zhang Ruochen. He said, “This is all I could do to help you. From now on, we’re clear, and you’re on your own.”

Gu Songzi told Qing Mo to protect Zhang Ruochen from being disturbed, and then, he left the place.

Qing Mo wanted to persuade Zhang Ruochen to think twice, but she chose not to as she didn’t want to affect him.

“Only those who’ve fought and strived know the differences between legends and the ordinary.”

Zhang Ruochen looked calm. He swallowed the pill without hesitation.

The meridian-breeding pill was like a catalyst. After it went into Zhang Ruochen’s body, the chaos Qi in Zhang Ruochen’s body became very active, making clattering sounds.

Each trace of his chaos Qi was like a river, and each light spot was like a star.

Zhang Ruochen’s skin started to glow with five-colored light. Lots of light spots were shining, and they became brighter and brighter. Even Spiritual Lake beside him became colorful.

Qing Mo held her breath with her eyes popping.

It seemed that Zhang Ruochen was holding a vast and boundless universe in his body where there were countless star regions.

“Is my lord really going to turn from postnatal to natal? He’s going to shine upon the universe with his body? His three meridians are going to evolve based on the rules of sky and land?”

Qing Mo swallowed her saliva as she couldn’t be more anxious.

Gu Songzi was sitting in a thatched cottage and he whispered, looking to the lake, “If he can really succeed, then he’ll trump Gods when they’re young. Can he really make a miracle?”

Zhang Ruochen’s body became larger and larger in his own mind. It was boundless, like an unlimited astral sky that was out of his control.

Zhang Ruochen gave up taking control, and he started to recall all the techniques he had read, and billions of characters showed up.

Those characters formed picture after picture. Some of them were beautiful fairies, some of them were blossoming flowers, some of them were warriors holding bows, and some were magical pillars or godly rivers.

All those pictures merged with the five-colored light spot, making the entire chaos world abstruse and magnificent.

Whoosh!

Zhang Ruochen felt that his body was shrinking from a vast universe to a human body.

All his meridians had recovered.

Holy Qi flew in his meridians and saint meridians while his blood flew in his veins. His body became abundant.

He still had the same number of meridians and saint meridians, yet all his meridians had five different colors on them now, and besides, he could feel that his meridians had gone through some very nuanced changes, which he could comprehend with his current cultivation.

“I’ve made a breakthrough and become an upper-class saint.”

Zhang Ruochen smiled and was keen to engage in a fight to alleviate his frustration.

Meanwhile, he was also curious about how powerful he had become. Could I rival those heaven pass blood generals now?
