Chapter 143

The Acupoint-Opening Pill was taken and melted upon contact.

"Two pills should be able to reach the acupoint limit."

Jiang Jian sensed quietly.

The medicinal power was gentle.

It soaked around the acupoints, expanding the Shenque capacity.

The Shenque Lingyun limit was also quietly increasing.

A few hours later.

Jiang Jian stood up and stopped cultivating.

The Shenque acupoint, between the meridians and bones, had completely reached its limit!

"Jiexue, bring the simple testing instrument."

Jiang Jian said.

A few dozen seconds later.

Jiexue used all four feet, with its tail curling a light ball instrument, and entered the cultivation room.

Jiang Jian's expression was calm as he directly reached his hand into the light ball.

The light ball rotated rapidly, flashing with light.

A short while later, its speed slowed down gradually and finally stopped.

"Test successful!"

"Spiritual Qi foundation test, time taken: 1 minute."

"Estimated spiritual Qi limit, approximately 103% of the Divine Gift realm."

Seeing the test result.

Jiang Jian couldn't help but frown.

"103% of the Divine Gift realm, actually so little."

Withdrawing his palm, Jiang Jian dissipated the spiritual Qi between his fingers.

According to his own thoughts.

Under the circumstances where his cultivation foundation was tempered so deeply.

He had taken two more Acupoint-Opening Pills in succession, raising his Shenque to the theoretical limit.

Yet his Shenque Lingyun cultivation was only 103% of the Divine Gift realm.

Jiang Jian didn't know.

Beyond 100% of the Divine Gift realm, every percentage point increase was extremely difficult!

The vast majority of prodigies who could accumulate to 101% of the Divine Gift realm could already be called a "Perfect Breakthrough"!

Shenque cultivation was the beginning of cultivation and the foundation of practice.

The higher the Shenque Lingyun limit accumulated during the breakthrough.

The more exponential and terrifying the improvement for the Spring Surge realm, or even the Divine Palace realm!

This was also the reason why many prodigies tried every possible way to accumulate foundation in the Divine Gift realm.

"Century-Old Infused Lingzhi."

"According to records, every five stalks can increase the Shenque Lingyun limit by about 1% of the Divine Gift realm."

Jiang Jian opened the wooden box and took out the Century-Old Infused Lingzhi.

The Century-Old Infused Lingzhi was a precious, peerless, and extremely rare spiritual item.

Only the top students of two prefectures could obtain one stalk.

But Jiang Jian had a full ten stalks!

For this item, the first stalk had the greatest effect.

Thereafter, the effect of taking it became smaller and smaller until it was completely ineffective.

Jiang Jian flicked his sleeves, took out six stalks in succession, and held them in his palm.

Burned by the frost-white karmic fire, the six stalks of Infused Lingzhi turned into medicinal powder, were swept up by spiritual Qi, and were directly gathered into his Shenque!

This method of taking it had the best conversion efficiency!

Boom!

The terrifying spiritual machine exploded instantly!

The terrifying Shenque Lingyun accumulated for over a hundred years turned into a gray-brown tornado vortex, crazily striking every corner of the acupoints!

But Jiang Jian's acupoints and meridians were incredibly tough.

Not only did they not suffer any damage, but under the violent bombardment, they slowly absorbed the Infused Lingzhi medicinal power to strengthen himself.

Silently.

The walls of Jiang Jian's acupoints slowly became thinner.

But their toughness, on the contrary, increased countless times!

This repeated.

As the thickness of the acupoint walls decreased, the acupoint capacity limit increased again!

His Shenque Lingyun limit also surged!

Ordinary living beings would absolutely not dare to take six stalks of Century-Old Infused Lingzhi at once!

Not to mention the preciousness of this treasure, where even obtaining one was difficult.

The terrifying spiritual machine of six stalks of Infused Lingzhi alone was enough to support the acupoints of a living being until they burst and shattered!

"Still not enough!"

Feeling the heart-piercing and bone-chilling pain, Jiang Jian's gaze turned cold, and he directly inserted his arm into the instrument light ball!

Real-time measurement!

The light ball flowed rapidly, casting down rays of light, and the data on it changed again!

"104% of the Divine Gift realm!"

"105% of the Divine Gift realm!"

Jiang Jian looked at the holographic screen, his mind moved, and under the guidance of spiritual Qi, the remaining tornado of medicinal power all blasted toward the acupoint walls of his Shenque!

Boom!

The acupoint walls became thinner again!

Their toughness and solidity had already increased to an incredible degree!

"106% of the Divine Gift realm!"

Jiexue, on the side, had its pupils shrink rapidly, its expression extremely shocked!

In the Linjiang Prefecture realm, for hundreds of years, there had never been a living being above 105% of the Divine Gift realm!

Even the 105% of the Divine Gift realm in the records was a record from before Earth's Star Ring was shattered!

The gray fox stared blankly at Jiang Jian, and a sentence emerged in its heart.

Accumulate and break out!

Jiang Jian not only had innate wisdom and unparalleled comprehension, but he also cultivated hard day and night, never having been lazy for even a moment!

His cultivation foundation far exceeded that of living beings in the same realm!

At this moment.

All the accumulation since he started cultivating exploded!

"Still not enough!"

Jiang Jian's eyes were cold, and deep within his pupils, a frost-white vortex roared and rose!

An indescribable stinging pain spread throughout his body.

But Jiang Jian didn't even frown!

The medicinal power of the Infused Lingzhi was about to be consumed completely.

Jiang Jian activated his spiritual Qi, gathered the remaining medicinal power, and forcibly pressed it into the acupoint barriers!

Boom!

His Shenque acupoint had a crack!

But this crack was instantly repaired by the vast, sea-like spiritual Qi.

The stinging pain that tore at his soul surged from the depths of his mind.

It even made his blood boil!

Huge pain swept over, Jiang Jian's pulse jumped wildly, and the blood vessels all over his body protruded, turning cyan!

But his control over spiritual Qi never stopped for a moment!

All the medicinal power of the Infused Lingzhi was consumed completely!

In exchange.

His Shenque Lingyun limit increased again!

"107% of the Divine Gift realm!"

The number on the instrument jumped another notch!

Jiexue, on the side, was already expressionless and dull, low-roaring: "What have I seen!"

"Still not enough!"

Jiang Jian's gaze was cold, and with a terrifyingly powerful willpower, he guided all his Shenque Shenque Lingyun to squeeze toward the acupoint barriers again!

Deep within his pupils, karmic fire burned fiercely!

Simple external force could no longer increase the Shenque Lingyun limit.

Jiang Jian's plan was actually to compress the Shenque acupoint walls again!

Crack!

His Shenque acupoint showed countless cracks, spreading crazily like a spiderweb!

Under the pressure from inside out, the acupoint already showed signs of collapse!

Boom!

The next second, terrifying frost-white karmic fire emerged, rolling with a massive amount of spiritual Qi, crazily repairing these cracks!

Cracks opened and healed, repeating over and over!

Every minute and every second.

Jiang Jian was enduring indescribable pain.

His lips lost all color, and his face was as pale as paper!

"Need to increase the foundation as much as possible."

"Only then will there be a chance to glimpse the Spirit Platform."

Gritting his teeth, Jiang Jian hardened his heart and actually activated all his Shenque Lingyun again to squeeze toward the acupoint barriers!

Crack!

His Shenque acupoint shattered by a small half!

The aura on Jiang Jian's body weakened suddenly!

Acupoint shattering meant a crisis of death!

"Your turn."

Jiang Jian showed a crazy smile, used his damaged soul, and his whole body couldn't stop trembling!

On the premise of maintaining soul stability.

A few wisps of ice-blue light emerged from the depths of his soul and fell directly into his Shenque!

During the Divine Gift exam in Guangling City, the true talent Jiang Jian awakened.

World-Purifying Divine Fire!

Boom!

As soon as the ice-blue light appeared, his Shenque acupoint immediately stopped collapsing!

The residual acupoint fragments and the shattered flesh and meridians all stood still.

As if time were flowing backward.

In an instant, they reassembled!

But the ice-blue light lasted for a very short time!

Even if he only maintained the ice-blue light for one second.

The depths of Jiang Jian's soul already emitted a crisp sound of cracking!

"Suppress it for me!"

While the ice-blue light forcibly suppressed the Shenque so it wouldn't collapse.

Jiang Jian's gaze turned cold, and enduring the soul's trance, he used all the cultivation foundation he had since he started cultivating, all his Shenque Shenque Lingyun, and squeezed fiercely toward the Shenque acupoint walls!

Squeeze, beat, temper!

In the blink of an eye.

This process had already been experienced dozens of times!

The instrument light ball burst with light!

The heaven-reaching giant tower seemed close but was actually far.

"How the fuck is this possible!"

Jiexue, on the side, shook its body violently and roared in shock!

"108% of the Divine Gift realm!"

"109% of the Divine Gift realm!"

"110% of the Divine Gift realm!"

"111% of the Divine Gift realm!"

The light ball roared, the numbers on it jumped rapidly, and it had already reached 111% of the Divine Gift realm!

Shocking!!!

Crack!

Accompanied by the sound of cracking from the depths of his soul.

The ice-blue light finally faded away.

Jiang Jian's consciousness felt waves of trance.

But his gaze was still clear and still carried madness!

Forcibly using a little power of the "World-Purifying Divine Fire."

Almost made his soul shatter completely!

But Jiang Jian had already calculated it in his heart.

He only needed a little ice-blue light to forcibly suppress the cracking of the Shenque acupoint.

The remaining ice-blue light was enough to maintain his soul.

As long as he could endure the pain and keep his consciousness clear.

Then, this matter was completely feasible!

"111% of the Divine Gift realm!"

Jiang Jian's expression became colder.

He, with the body of a mortal, had broken the limit of limits!

Even his sister, who possessed the bloodline he had stripped away, could absolutely not exceed 110% of the Divine Gift realm!

110% of the Divine Gift realm was the absolute limit for living beings!

Whether it was the four realms of Earth and Moon, the Jupiter world, or the Saturn Star Ring.

Even the distant Uranus and Neptune.

Their first realm limit would absolutely not exceed 110% of the Divine Gift realm!

Because.

No matter what means were used.

Bloodline, talent, external force, spiritual items.

All these various things.

The Shenque acupoint limit could only ever be increased to 110%; this was the ultimate limit of living beings!

Once it approached the critical point.

The acupoints would shatter directly, without any room for relaxation!

Even the descendants of gods were like this!

If the acupoints exploded.

The living being would be seriously injured at best, unable to cultivate from then on.

At worst, they would die from blood loss, and their soul would be destroyed!

Whether it was the four realms of Earth and Moon or the other planets.

There had never been a record of exceeding 110% of the Divine Gift realm.

But Jiang Jian.

Relied on his innate talent to make the impossible possible, forcibly breaking the most essential shackles at the root of living beings!

"I have no bloodline, I am just an Earth mortal."

"Yet I have achieved exceeding the limit."

"111% of the Divine Gift realm."

Jiang Jian barely maintained his sanity and observed the situation of his Shenque acupoint.

At this time, the Shenque acupoint had changed greatly.

The acupoint walls were as thin as cicada wings, like transparent ice crystals.

Shenque Lingyun light flickered, spreading throughout.

This kind of acupoint was born by chance.

It was unique and also had no records.

"Perhaps, stripping away your bloodline and being a mortal is not a bad thing for you."

Many years ago, the words of the theological physician still rang in his ears.

"No matter how noble or powerful the bloodline is."

"In essence, it is walking someone else's path."

"You will never be able to step into that realm."

Under her wide black robe, she stretched out her slender white fingers to stroke the boy's black hair.

"You discarded your bloodline to save your sister."

"Willing to be an ordinary mortal."

"Perhaps."

"It just so happens that you can break and then stand, turning a misfortune into a blessing, who knows."

"After all."

"The wind rises at the end of the green duckweed."

"I have seen living beings as humble as ants, with bodies like dust, rising from the humble."

"Once they soar, they swallow billions of miles, sweep across the vast galaxy, and ascend to the heavenly throne."

"But I have rarely seen spoiled children who started halfway through have any success."

She withdrew her palm and smiled at the boy.

"I see endless coldness and madness in your eyes."

"This complex intertwining, appearing in the same person, makes one's heart tremble uncontrollably."

"I believe."

"Living beings like you, although mortals, will never fall into the mundane."

The black-robed being turned around and tilted her head slightly: "If there really is a day we meet again, it should be your turn to cure my illness."

The memory scene shattered quietly.

Jiang Jian stood up, his gaze cold, and flicked his gold-white sleeves!

The testing light ball exploded directly!

The sky full of light fragments drifted down.

"I didn't see anything!"

Jiexue covered its eyes, trembling all over: "I really didn't see anything!"

111% of the Divine Gift realm, if it were accidentally leaked, it would shock the world in an instant!

"Bring Hanguang here."

The white-robed youth said softly.

Jiexue's body trembled, and it jumped into the cabin, curling Hanguang over.

This long sword had already shed half of its white wooden shell.

From the tiny cracks, cold light shone out.

"Innate Divine Gift, Hanguang."

Jiang Jian stroked the long sword.

His Shenque spiritual Qi boiled again!

"111% of the Divine Gift realm is still not my limit!"

As his mind moved, Jiang Jian's thoughts remained cold and rational!

Hanguang was a rare innate Divine Gift in the world!

Between Jiang Jian and it, there was a connection from the depths of his soul.

He could sense it.

This sword couldn't wait to break out of its shell!

Its sharpness was unparalleled and could be called peerless!

"A little sharpness is enough."

Jiang Jian sat down on the ground, his pale, slender fingers stroking the cracks on the Hanguang sword.

Hanguang looked like a wooden sword.

But it wasn't a wooden sword; it was just wrapped in a wooden shell.

At this very moment.

Many cracks had already appeared on the wooden shell.

Jiang Jian's fingers stroked it, and the sword body trembled suddenly!

From deep within the cracks, a faint sword hum came!

"Hanguang."

Jiang Jian said softly: "Your turn."

Crack!

The cracks on the sword body became larger!

Wisps of frost-white sword Qi emerged from the cracks one after another and sank directly into Jiang Jian's fingers!

This sword Qi was extremely small.

Yet in an instant, it sank into Jiang Jian's Shenque acupoint.

Crack!

A tiny sword Qi, at extreme speed, scraped fiercely against the acupoint barriers!

The transparent, ice-like acupoint walls were shaved off in an instant.

But they themselves didn't tremble at all!

Because this piece was really too small and too thin!

But there were thousands of such frost-white sword Qi!

Jiang Jian controlled this sword Qi with his mind.

But Hanguang had extremely strong spirituality!

Occasionally, there were places Jiang Jian didn't control meticulously.

This tiny sword Qi would also fill in the gaps, with the acupoint barriers falling off like snowflakes, subtle to the extreme!

Boom!

Finally.

With a trembling roar deep in his mind.

Jiang Jian's Shenque acupoint reached its true limit!

No further progress possible, the limit of limits!

The Shenque acupoint was already completely transparent!

Its toughness and solidity had also reached an unimaginable, terrifying degree!

"113% of the Divine Gift realm!"

Jiang Jian opened his eyes, his gaze cold as frost!

Although there was no testing instrument.

Jiang Jian, relying on his previous experience and extremely precise estimation, had completely deduced his Shenque Lingyun limit!

113% of the Divine Gift realm!

Not to mention the four realms of Earth and Moon, even on other planets, there had never been such a living being!

In the seventy prefectures of the Earth Surface, the highest record for the first realm was 108% of the Divine Gift realm!

And the record in the vast solar system was the absolute limit for living beings, 110% of the Divine Gift realm!

Generally speaking.

105% of the Divine Gift realm was a chasm that could never be crossed.

On this basis, every 1% exceeded would cause a huge shock!

The limit records for Linjiang Prefecture and Hanjiang Prefecture were both 105% of the Divine Gift realm.

Because.

As long as it was a Level 6 talent, or a top-tier Level 5 talent.

Relying on the accumulation of massive resources and countless rare spiritual items.

Without calculating consumption, they could always be piled up to 103% to 104% of the Divine Gift realm.

Among them, occasionally there were peerless prodigies with firm will and extraordinary perseverance.

Raising the first realm limit to 105% of the Divine Gift realm was not difficult.

But going further.

Even by 1%.

It was as difficult as ascending to heaven!

Once someone appeared in the first realm who cultivated to 106% of the Divine Gift realm, even the center of the Earth Surface realm, Chang'an Prefecture, would be shocked!

The rarity of such a prodigy could even be compared to a Level 6 talent!

But Jiang Jian.

Had forcibly cultivated his Shenque Lingyun cultivation to a terrifying 113%!

If this matter were leaked, no one would believe it at all!

113% of the Divine Gift realm, others would only listen to it as a joke.

But if Jiang Jian were a prodigy at 107% or 108% of the Divine Gift realm.

His rarity could be compared to a Level 7 talent!

It would immediately set off a monstrous wave in the Earth Surface realm!

Not just the seventy prefectures of the Earth Surface.

Even the Earth Alliance headquarters in the Moon realm would be shocked!

Because.

The cultivation foundation of the Divine Gift realm also had a great influence on the limit of life cultivation!

Although the cultivation limit of the first realm could not completely determine the end of one's cultivation path.

But those who cultivated to above 104% of the Divine Gift realm in the first realm.

The vast majority broke into the Divine Palace realm!

First realm, Divine Gift.

Second realm, Spring Surge.

Third realm, Divine Palace!

In the seventy prefectures of the Earth Surface, the Spirit Platform realm remained hidden.

Under these circumstances, the Divine Palace realm was the highest realm of the Earth Surface realm!

Although the Divine Palace realm could not be measured by data.

Its span was also extremely large.

But even the weakest Divine Palace realm could at least serve as a Vice Prefecture Master!

Liu Liu Yanshou of Hanjiang Prefecture and Jiang Jiang Wenjian of Linjiang Prefecture were both in the Divine Palace realm!

But the gap in combat power between the two was huge!

There was also the Prefecture Master of Hanjiang Prefecture, who was also in the Divine Palace realm.

But his cultivation was extremely terrifying and could easily crush Jiang Jiang Wenjian!
