Chapter 36: One Spiritual Meridian, Off the Charts!

【Chu Youqing opened the first spiritual meridian, the host gained twenty times the harvest from Chu Youqing's meridian opening.】

「Here? 」

Beidou University, Lu Xun leapt up and sat up.

Chu Youqing woke up too early; Lu Xun still hadn't gotten up yet.

The twentyfold return, the heat flow that appeared inside the body is much larger than before.

That heat flow, after entering the elixir field, suddenly surged toward a direction.

「Hum~」

Lu Xun's first spiritual meridian opened.

After opening the spiritual meridian, just like when initially opening the martial meridian, the heat flow repeatedly collided, widening the spiritual meridian further.

Soon, this spiritual meridian could no longer be widened.

「Hum~」

Thus, the heat flow opened the second spiritual meridian, then the third, then the fourth.

「Why isn't it the same? 」

Lu Xun discovered the difference.

When opening a martial meridian, the heat flow would repeatedly flow back and forth within that martial meridian until completely exhausted.

Spiritual meridians are different; they seem to have a width limit.

When it can no longer be widened, the heat flow will rush to open a new spiritual meridian.

「That's right, what martial meridians use are the body's own extraordinary eight meridians; spiritual meridians are created from nothing, forcibly made, so a width limit is normal. »

Lu Xun thought.

Although cultivation is forbidden by the system, Lu Xun will still study and understand these basic theoretical knowledge.

Some school courses, Lu Xun will occasionally check in.

Even if not cultivating, he also needs to put on an act.

Otherwise, it would be blatantly telling others he has cheats.

That isn't looking for trouble for oneself, is it?

Do you really think this world is wonderful and harmonious, full of sunshine, with everyone loving and respectful like guests?

If the system were truly exposed, not to mention foreign peoples, even humans themselves wouldn't know how many would stop at nothing to obtain Lu Xun.

Then they would try various ways to detach from the system, or simply lock Lu Xun up to study.

「Five! 」

Inside Lu Xun's body, after the heat flow opened five spiritual meridians for him, it was finally exhausted.

Just this once, he surpassed nearly half of Immortal Cultivators.

Many Immortal Cultivators, even after a lifetime, still don't have five spiritual meridians.

If the Immortal Cultivators knew, who knows what jealousy would turn into.

【Chu Youqing opened the second spiritual meridian, the host gained twenty times the harvest from Chu Youqing's meridian opening.】

Not long after it was opened, the second return arrived.

【Chu Youqing opened the third spiritual meridian, the host gained twenty times the harvest from Chu Youqing's meridian opening.】

Not long after, Chu Youqing opened the third spiritual meridian.

This speed is not much slower than Murong Wan opening her martial meridian.

One must know, spiritual meridians are inherently harder to open than martial meridians; the speed of opening spiritual meridians is far slower than that of martial meridians.

Chu Youqing still being able to maintain this speed is enough to show her talent in the Immortal Dao.

Saying she is a natural-born Immortal Cultivator is not wrong at all.

「Youqing, don't be too fast, steady yourself, avoid injury. »

「Hmm, teacher, I'm confident. »

In Pure Void Academy, Qin Ruolan was somewhat worried about Chu Youqing.

Really, Chu Youqing's speed of opening spiritual meridians is too fast.

One after another.

This speed left Qin Ruolan dazzled, yet also somewhat terrified.

Opening meridians is actually a very risky matter.

Every year many people get injured from opening meridians; severe cases can't even take care of daily life.

The risk of spiritual meridians is much greater than that of martial meridians.

Martial meridians ultimately have a meridian to rely on.

Spiritual meridians are created from nothing, with no meridian to rely on, making them more prone to injury.

Qin Ruolan just worries that if Chu Youqing is careless and injures herself, it will be troublesome.

Chu Youqing also heeded the advice, slightly slowing her speed.

But she didn't slow down too much.

Who let her ancient spiritual root absorb Dark Energy too quickly, with a continuous stream of spiritual energy being transformed by the ancient spiritual root; she wants to slow down but can't.

Fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth.

Although Chu Youqing controlled her speed, after several hours she still opened nine spiritual meridians in one go.

「Youqing, the crucial part has come; first don't think about opening the Heaven Earth Meridian. Nine spiritual meridians are far from the limit. These nine are major spiritual meridians; if one can open more than nine minor spiritual meridians, they can link into a spirit wheel, and then attacking the Heaven Earth Meridian later is not too late. »

「Okay, teacher. »

「Take this spirit wheel pill; it will help you open minor spiritual meridians. »

Mm!

Qin Ruolan gave timely guidance, and also gave Chu Youqing a pill.

The instructor's role proved its worth then.

Chu Youqing took the Spirit Wheel Pill and continued opening her spirit veins.

Hum~

Another spirit vein was blasted open.

This is a minor spirit vein.

Opening a minor spirit vein is actually a bit harder than opening a major one.

Moreover, a moment's inattention could easily cause injury.

Because it's easy to overexert.

It's like capillaries, which can hold only a limited amount of blood; blasting them with a torrent would surely burst them.

So, Chu Youqing's speed slowed down.

Roughly every half hour she could open one spirit vein.

"Not stopped yet?"

At Beidou University, Lu Xun sat cross-legged there, waiting for the harvest.

Xiao Bai lay nearby, curiously watching Lu Xun.

Lu Xun's body occasionally vibrated with energy, making Xiao Bai, who liked to stay close to him, dare not approach.

From morning, to noon, then to afternoon.

This time, Chu Youqing opened a whole set of spirit veins.

"Teacher, I seem to have reached my limit."

Chu Youqing discovered she could no longer open new spirit veins inside her body.

"How many in total?"

Qin Ruolan asked.

"Thirty-six."

"Good, connect them into a Spirit Wheel!"

Mm!

Chu Youqing mobilized her spiritual energy, linking the spirit veins inside her body to form a Spirit Wheel.

"Wow! So many..."

"So many spirit veins, it's insane!"

On the other side, Lu Xun sensed the number of spirit veins in his body and jumped in fright.

Inside his body, the large and small spirit veins totaled one hundred eighty opened.

One hundred eighty spirit veins—just saying it would scare anyone, even Lu Xun himself was frightened.
