Chapter 67: Purple Light Meridians? Not Worth It

~8 min read 1,441 words

"Stay calm and don't be impatient; just wait, and go back to cultivate properly."

Under the expectant gazes of the others, Xiao Xian (nickname) quietly left with Xiao Jue.

The others exchanged glances a few times, and, unable to hold back, began to discuss.

Especially Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong.

Some of them were even a bit stunned.

Self-Created Soul Technique—does Xiao Xian (nickname) intend to teach it to them?

Especially Ning Rongrong.

She truly knows how precious the Self-Created Soul Technique is.

She has been thinking about when to trade for it from Xiao Xian (nickname), or buy it, but has never mustered the courage to ask.

After all, whether buying or trading, Xiao Xian (nickname) would only stand to lose.

But now, Xiao Xian (nickname) even plans to proactively teach them?

For free?

It wasn't until Oscar and Dai Mubai explained it once that Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing nodded as if in a dream.

It turns out Xiao Xian (nickname) had long intended to teach them the Self-Created Soul Technique.

He had even already taught Oscar.

But just as Oscar once told Ning Rongrong.

That miraculous Self-Created Soul Technique is attached to Xiao Xian (nickname)'s own First Soul Technique.

It has side effects, and the side effects are not ordinary in strength.

Oscar and Xiao Wu both regrettably failed, unable to suppress the side effects.

Zhu Zhuqing felt somewhat shocked.

First Soul Technique…

A soul skill with no combat power at all…

Can a Soul Master do this? Can a useless soul skill become useful?

Not using the soul skill, but exploiting it?

This seemed to greatly broaden her perspective.

…

Almost everyone excitedly looked at Tang San, asking him questions.

After all, he was the only one among them who had mastered Xiao Xian (nickname)'s Self-Created Soul Technique.

Senior brother's Self-Created Soul Technique?

Tang San couldn't help but give a wry smile.

Back then, to conceal… a perfectly fine Tang Sect secret technique, and now it's somehow being attributed to Xiao.

Probably, even if he now produced the genuine Xuan Yu Hand or Hidden Weapon Technique, it would still be seen as building upon his senior brother's work…?

…

The sky gradually darkened.

Master was already waiting on Fulangde's rooftop.

Xiao Jue returned to the tent to cultivate.

Master beckoned Xiao Xian (nickname), who sat on the low stool beside him.

No superfluous words.

Master looked deeply at Xiao Xian (nickname) and said directly, "I researched some data yesterday, pondered it for a long time, and even consulted Oscar today."

"The side effect of Sunlight Spore is that, after soul power becomes overly active, it strikes outward in all directions without pattern."

"Oscar can only control one or two directions and a couple of pockets of soul power, but cannot eliminate the chaotic soul power throughout the body that agitates in other directions."

"Especially when it involves the internal organs, it inevitably causes injury and spitting blood."

"You and Xiao San, however, can constrain the soul power quite well."

"Then, if there were a method to make the soul power strike only toward the two ends rather than all directions, with their control ability, could they then properly restrain the active soul power?"

Xiao Xian (nickname) was slightly taken aback.

That indeed is a method.

But isn't that just nonsense?

Master, expressionless, continued, "Xiao Xian (nickname), have you ever considered your Third Soul Technique?"

"If your control over the Purple Light of the Dark Gold Dragon Crocodile is sufficient, could the Purple Light actively invade their bodies?"

"The Purple Light would embed itself in their meridians, reshaping them; there's no need to alter the whole body, only the part linked to the Self-Created Soul Technique."

"Once those meridians become strong enough, your Sunlight Spore need not spread throughout the body; it can settle only on that portion of the meridians."

"No matter how restless the Sunlight Spore is, it's still an irregular strike; compared with Sunlight Blood Dragon Vine, your Sunlight Spore is far weaker."

"They also don't need to suppress soul power throughout the whole body, only to control the soul power within those specifically reinforced meridians."

"In that case, it would certainly become much easier."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xian (nickname) instinctively frowned and pondered.

Master's idea is indeed very laborious.

Strengthening the meridians related to the Self-Created Soul Technique and restricting Sunlight Spore to those meridians.

Sounds simple.

He must first control his own Purple Light to invade the opponent's meridians, and also keep it ready to withdraw at any moment, lest he accidentally kill them.

Then, he must convert the altered meridians' devouring nutrients and soul power back, nullifying the effect of his Purple Light.

Only a reinforced meridian was left for them.

Then, by controlling the Sunlight Spore, make it fall onto those meridians, and ensure it does not flow elsewhere.

In this way, ordinary soul power only becomes activated soul power after flowing through these special meridians.

They would naturally be able to use Blowing Fire Palm, Suction Palm, and even Violent Step.

But.

Because their control over soul power is insufficient.

They can only simply control the direction and speed of soul power flow, not achieve fine adjustments.

However.

Purely using it is probably fine.

Moreover, since they don't need to suppress the soul power throughout the body, perhaps they could barely control it like him?

Xiao Xian (nickname)'s brows furrowed even deeper.

Spending so much effort…

Just to let them use his Self-Created Soul Technique.

What a living bodhisattva he is.

No…

Perhaps it doesn't need to be so laborious.

He can control whether the Sunlight Spore takes effect.

Normally, just keep the Sunlight Spore inactive.

Activate it when needed.

But…

He kept thinking.

Xiao Xian (nickname)'s brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

Master stared intently at his clever disciple, trying to read his thoughts.

In the night, on the rooftop, Xiao Xian (nickname) sat on a low stool, a look of helplessness gradually appearing on his face, while his mind became thoughtful.

Purple Light Meridian.

The upright Purple Light Meridian.

If this thing could be activated at any time like the Sunlight Spore.

Wouldn't that mean other people's meridians are also my meridians?

Other people's soul power also becomes my soul power?

The meridians reshaped by his Purple Light, even after later condensation, are still his Purple Light—!

The kind he can control at will.

Since it doesn't involve killing or stealing souls, it naturally isn't an Evil Soul Master.

What a pity.

That seems unlikely.

Xiao Xian (nickname) looked at Master and said, "Just to make the Sunlight Spore latch onto their unique meridians without flowing elsewhere—maybe? Is it doable? But the Purple Light of the Dark Gold Dragon Crocodile and reshaping meridians is too risky."

"I suggest you discuss this with Dean Fulangde."

"I myself have no way; I'm forced to do it this way. Moreover, this is my soul skill, residing in my own body, and I can keep it under control."

"If they… should a problem arise… just for the sake of a Self-Created Soul Technique, it's not really worth it."

Hearing that, Master's faintly hopeful expression stiffened.

He fell silent.

Problems arise…

Not worth it…

Is his idea too exaggerated?

After a long silence, Master's stiff face forced a faint smile, "I'll think it over."

That night, Fulangde heard Master's thoughts and also furrowed his brows deeply.

The state of Xiao Xian (nickname)'s internal meridians already made him uneasy.

Xiao Gang actually intends to turn everyone into that state?

What if a mistake occurs?

A meridian error could cause immediate death.

All for a few Self-Created Soul Techniques? They're not that exceptionally powerful.

In his view, the upper limit of Xiao Xian (nickname)'s Self-Created Soul Technique reaching the thousand-year level is already fortunate.

Soul Elder and Soul Ancestor bully others, after all everyone only has a Thousand-Year Soul Ring.

Soul King and Soul Emperor, everyone has a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring…

"Not worth it."

Fulangde's first thought was that it wasn't worth it; he stared at Master and said gravely, "I don't recommend it."

Master sighed inwardly, a bit disappointed.

In his view, this is clearly a highly feasible approach.

Moreover, for Xiao Xian (nickname), this also maximizes benefits.

After all, Dark Gold Dragon Crocodile...

"\"……\""

Xiao Xian (nickname) sat cross-legged in Xiao Jue's tent, wearing soul rings, and cultivated together with Xiao Jue.

On the roof at night.

Two streams of bright yellow light, and one bright purple light, shone far away.

Xiao Xian (nickname) quietly opened his eyes, holding a small bird in his hand, the Purple Light in his hand flickering...
