Chapter 83

On the other side, having safely returned to the Divine Sword Peak kitchen, it was long past mealtime, yet many disciples and deacons were still waiting there.

Seeing Ye Changqing return, the disciples all offered words of concern.

After responding to them one by one, Ye Changqing said.

"Senior Brothers and Sisters, please wait a moment; dinner will be ready soon."

"It's fine for Junior Brother Changqing to take a rest."

"That's right, we're in no rush."

Their mouths were already watering, yet they claimed they were in no rush. Seeing this, Ye Changqing couldn't help but laugh, then turned and walked into the kitchen to start preparing.

There wasn't much to do; just heating up the dishes would suffice.

He soon had dinner ready, and it was the same chaotic scene as always, with many disciples fighting tooth and nail for a seat.

The food for one thousand people was quickly snatched up. The disciples who secured a spot ate with great delight, while those who didn't beat their chests and stamped their feet, thinking that they must succeed next time.

After dinner, everyone left, and Ye Changqing habitually opened his personal panel.

【Host: Ye Changqing.】

【Identity: Dao One Sect servant disciple.】

【Cultivation: Meridian Opening Realm entry-level (165/100000)】

His cultivation had broken through directly to the entry-level of the Meridian Opening Realm. He could clearly feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surging into his meridians, constantly scouring away the impurities within.

Before a cultivator begins their training, the meridians in their body are generally closed, except for those geniuses with special constitutions.

Therefore, the primary task of the Meridian Opening Realm is to use the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to constantly scour the meridians and flush out the impurities within them.

Only when the meridians are thoroughly opened, and after breaking through to the Golden Core Realm and forming a Golden Core in the body, can spiritual power move freely within.

Otherwise, if the meridians are blocked and spiritual power cannot form a full cycle within the body, then let alone forming a Golden Core, even ordinary cultivation would be extremely difficult.

Moreover, the purer and more unobstructed the meridians are, the faster the spiritual power circulates. In addition to cultivation, when fighting others, casting techniques becomes faster and more powerful. Thus, the Meridian Opening Realm is a very important process.

Even for geniuses with special constitutions whose meridians are naturally unobstructed, at this realm, they will try every possible method to make their meridians even tougher and wider.

After experiencing the changes following his breakthrough, now that he was in the Meridian Opening Realm, the Zhuanming Heart Mantra was no longer of much use, as it was only a technique for the Qi Sensing Realm.

"It seems I still need to ask the Peak Master for a Meridian Opening Realm technique."

For a cultivator, every major realm has a corresponding technique.

He didn't need to worry about the technique. Turning his attention back to the system, he discovered that the system had actually provided a prompt.

【Host's cultivation has broken through, dish effects have been enhanced.】

The dishes rewarded by the system were all of some help to cultivators, and as Ye Changqing improved, the effects of the dishes would be enhanced.

For example, now that Ye Changqing was at the entry-level of the Meridian Opening Realm, the previous dishes, such as the braised noodles, could provide a small boost to physical constitution when consumed.

But now, this effect of enhancing the constitution had been strengthened; according to the system's conversion, it was more than double what it was before.

Simply put, the previous effect of enhancing the constitution might not have been of much help to Body Refining Realm disciples, but now, it was comparable to a Body Refining Pill.

A bowl of braised noodles was equal to a Body Refining Pill—such an enhancement could be called terrifying, and it could continue to improve in the future.

Nodding with satisfaction, this was quite good. Since his cultivation had broken through, he naturally had to reward himself today. After a comfortable medicinal bath, Ye Changqing went to rest early.

He didn't take the day's events to heart at all. Meanwhile, Yu Li, He Lu, and the others, who had already moved far away from the Dao One Sect,

were currently resting in a small town they were passing through. Although it was already late at night, He Lu had no sleepiness at all.

She stood by the window with an icy expression, looking coldly in the direction of the Dao One Sect, and gritted her teeth.

"Ye Changqing, I will definitely pay back today's humiliation. During the Four Sects Assembly, I will absolutely not show mercy. Just you wait."

He Lu would not forget today's humiliation, and she swore she would pay it back with her own hands. She would make Ye Changqing regret his choice today. ===== CHAPTER 84 =====
