Chapter 241: Peak Human Immortal

Boom!

Suddenly, Yin Qi's entire body shook violently.

The 1,296 acupoints opened on their own, radiating brilliant divine light.

Then, within a certain acupoint, a hundred tiny points of light unexpectedly lit up.

Although these points of light were small, their divine radiance was even more blinding.

A more majestic power surged from within his body out of thin air, and his physical body underwent a certain transformation in an instant; his muscles and bones were all radiating divine light, with mysterious patterns faintly emerging.

One acupoint connects to a hundred!

Peak Human Immortal!

Yin Qi woke up from his fist practice, two dazzling rays of light shooting from his eyes.

The corners of his mouth curled up, and his heart was filled with joy.

For these past eight years, besides contemplating scriptures like the *Tao Te Ching* and the *Heart Sutra*, he had spent his time creating techniques and had not deliberately cultivated, but through long-term accumulation, he had still broken through naturally.

He was not only a Peak Human Immortal, but a perfected Peak Human Immortal.

The standard for a Peak Human Immortal is for one acupoint to connect to a hundred, but even someone like Hong Xuanji had only cultivated a little over four hundred acupoints.

How could that compare to him, who had long since refined all his acupoints?

He looked within himself and felt that these acupoints seemed to connect to certain mysterious spaces, capable of drawing in all kinds of power.

Things like starlight energy, moonlight energy, Heavenly Gang energy, planetary magnetic force, and so on.

All these powers could be used to temper his physical body, allowing it to obtain continuous improvement.

Yin Qi's heart stirred, and the original 1,296 acupoint deities each split into a hundred, entering the various hundred acupoints to condense into new acupoint deities, presiding over the acupoint spaces.

As these acupoints were continuously refined, various potentials of his physical body were unearthed, and his original abilities were strengthened.

For example, the Thousand-Mile Foot; previously it could only traverse a distance of a dozen miles, but now traversing a hundred miles was a piece of cake.

Besides martial arts, his Dao cultivation and immortal cultivation had also progressed well.

Although he had not yet gone to transcend the ninth thunder tribulation, with his current foundation, he could already pass it smoothly, though there would still be a not-insignificant period of weakness.

As for immortal cultivation, it had now reached the late Golden Core stage, not far from the peak.

Yin Qi had made significant progress, and Bagua Daoren had also gained a great deal, especially in contemplating arrays; he had mastered the principles of all primary-level arrays, and because he had integrated them, he could even create his own arrays.

Yin Qi continued to cultivate, consolidating his cultivation base.

Suddenly, he felt a palpitation in his soul; someone was calling out to him.

He calmed his mind to sense his surroundings, and soon he heard someone praying to him; it was the Sect Master of the Fangxian Dao, Xiao Anran: "Earl, the Champion Marquis has brought a miraculous Divine Pillar God-Fetus to the Yujing Temple today. He is waiting for the spring thunder, intending to use the thunder's True Qi to stimulate its growth."

Xiao Anran prayed continuously for over a dozen times before stopping.

"Heavenly Pillar Divine Fetus!"

Yin Qi's eyes brightened; this was a natural supreme treasure.

The Heavenly Pillar Divine Fetus, a divine stone that has gained sentience, requires hundreds of millions of years to gestate, and once it gestates, it possesses the cultivation of a Human Immortal. In ancient times, there was a Saint Emperor, 'Hong', who was a divine stone that had gained sentience.

It could be said that as long as this Heavenly Pillar Divine Fetus was given enough time to grow, achieving Shattering Vacuum was almost a certainty.

With his current cultivation, he certainly didn't need it.

But he couldn't let the Champion Marquis benefit from it either.

Furthermore, although he didn't need it, his women did; it could be refined into a Human Immortal clone.

However, the Champion Marquis had just arrived at the Yujing Temple, and if he went to snatch it now, it would easily make the Champion Marquis suspect there was a mole by his side, so it was better to wait until the spring thunder came.

Longxiang Earl Mansion.

Practice room.

Yin Qi walked out from it.

Although he was cultivating in the Heavenly Palace, nominally he was still in the practice room.

As soon as he came out of seclusion, the servants who had long been guarding outside hurriedly went to report to Princess Linglong and the others.

When he arrived at the side hall, he saw five charming and enchanting women walking over.

Besides Princess Linglong, Chan Yinsha, Yao Yueting, and Ao Luan, there was also a woman of peerless beauty.

This woman was dressed in white, graceful and slender, with a dignified and elegant temperament; the key was that as she walked in, the room was instantly filled with a pleasant fragrance that was refreshing to the heart.

Even in her every movement, she gave people the feeling of emitting fragrance.

"Yun Xiangxiang!"

Yin Qi instantly thought of the other party's identity: the Saintess of the Wenxiang Sect, who had cultivated the Heavenly Fragrance Cloud-Net Body; every moment, whether it was her body or her voice, she seemed to be able to emit fragrance.

"Ao Luan, when did you arrive?"

Yin Qi smiled happily, then pretended to be puzzled as he looked at Yun Xiangxiang: "I don't know who this young lady is?"

Seeing Yin Qi again, Ao Luan was also very happy, and she introduced: "Yin Qi, let me introduce you, this is the Saintess of the Wenxiang Sect, Yun Xiangxiang, my best friend, who also came here by reputation this time."

Although the Wenxiang Sect's reputation was not prominent, back in the day it was a great sect comparable to the Supreme Dao.

Meng Shenji killed his wife to prove his Dao, and the one he killed was Yun Xiangxiang's master, the previous Saintess of the Wenxiang Sect, while Yun Xiangxiang herself was also an expert of the sixth thunder tribulation and a Peak Martial Saint.

She had another identity, which was the mother of the Champion Marquis.

Of course, that was a matter of the previous life.

In the previous life, she combined with Yang Pan to give birth to the Champion Marquis, and then she underwent corpse-dissection reincarnation.

For Dao cultivators, generally, corpse-dissection reincarnation is equivalent to severing all karma from the previous life, which is also why Meng Shenji had never paid attention to Hong Yi, because he had also undergone corpse-dissection reincarnation twenty years ago.

Yun Xiangxiang's voice was soft and pleasant, and she bowed gracefully: "I have met Young Master Yin."

Yin Qi smiled gently: "So it is Miss Yun. I have been in seclusion cultivating, and I have been negligent. I don't know what brings Miss Yun here; if there is anything I can help with, I will certainly do my utmost."

Yun Xiangxiang smiled and said: "It is indeed coming by reputation, hoping to form a good connection with Young Master Yin."

Princess Linglong followed up by saying: "Husband, Sister Yun gave us each a bottle of Heavenly Fragrance Pill; after taking it, the body can produce fragrance, but just standing with Sister Yun, the fragrance on our bodies is almost non-existent."

Speaking of this, her eyes were full of envy.

"Then many thanks to Miss Yun."

Yin Qi had a keen sense of smell and could smell the fragrance on Princess Linglong and the other four, but it could not be compared to Yun Xiangxiang.

He spread his palm, revealing four white jade bottles, and said: "These are four bottles of Refined Grain Pills, ten in each bottle, which I refined using Dragon Tooth Rice and Seven-Orifice Flat Peaches; they contain majestic energy and are pure and flawless, capable of cleansing the physical body and supplementing what is needed for cultivation."

As he spoke, Yin Qi's palm shook slightly, and the four white jade bottles floated slowly in front of Yun Xiangxiang.

Yun Xiangxiang's eyes lit up, and she accepted them happily: "Then many thanks to Young Master Yin. By the way, I received news that the families of the Hundred Sages seem to be plotting against you, and each family has sent many great Confucian scholars to Yujing City."

Yin Qi raised an eyebrow: "Plotting against me, how are they plotting?"

Yun Xiangxiang smiled beautifully: "You scholars, don't you all decide victory or defeat through discussing the profound and debating the Dao? Otherwise, who do you think they sent great Confucian scholars for?

If they were to use force, one-on-one they are not your match.

But if they were to gang up on you, the families of the Hundred Sages couldn't afford to lose that much face.

It is said that they also want to snipe you in the examination hall, wanting to use these great Confucian scholars to crowd out the quota for successful candidates, making you fail the examination." ===== CHAPTER 242 =====
