Invincible!

Chapter 60 Infuriating
In the courtyard of Wendao Mountain.

Li Xian closed the Innate Qi Refining Technique: "So, opening the meridians is exactly what it sounds like."

By cultivating true qi and opening up the meridians throughout the body, one can accumulate more true qi and release it from every acupoint, ultimately achieving a state where true qi is as dense as a woven fabric, protecting the entire body.

A martial artist at this stage is virtually invulnerable to blades and spears, and impervious to water and fire, until their true energy is exhausted.

There was once a top expert in the Meridian Opening Realm who single-handedly blocked an army, shattering 1,200 armored soldiers with his sword, but eventually ran out of energy and died!

"First, use true qi to open up all the meridians in your body, then circulate the true qi throughout your body to nourish yourself, and then reverse your innate state to accumulate the final energy until you finally break through the Heavenly Gate, draw the power of heaven and earth into your body, enter the Dao through martial arts, and forge an unparalleled foundation for the Dao."

The road ahead is now clear.

And all of these steps originated from true qi.

"True Qi".

Li Xian focused his mind and activated his own blood and qi, constantly "replicating" the various sensations he experienced when Yan Yu invaded his body with her true qi during their battle nine days ago.

Gradually……

Qi and blood, along with the mind and spirit, begin to mimic and merge.

The vital energy and blood, which are originally equivalent to the essence of the human body, become more and more dynamic under the fusion of mental power. With each heartbeat and the circulation of energy, this vital energy and blood will condense the essence of the whole body and become even stronger.

At a certain moment, the power of qi and blood that was constantly merging with the mind and spirit suddenly transformed from the illusory to the real, and became something that could be truly touched.

Although this state only lasted for a fleeting moment, like a stroke of genius achieved through perfect timing and location in a game, but...

It was still accurately captured and recorded by Li Xian.

Once the burning process is complete, the rest becomes incredibly simple.

Recreate it!

The process of burning the record is continuously reproduced!

The process of achieving unity of spirit and energy became increasingly skillful through repeated reenactments.

until……

His vital energy and mental energy were completely integrated, and he could operate on his own without having to spend any more effort. Thus, his vital energy underwent a complete transformation into true energy.

"call!"

Li Xian's face was slightly pale.

These repeated repetitions of the process of achieving unity of mind and body lead to excessive consumption of the mind, spirit, and blood.

He quickly swallowed a pre-prepared blood-nourishing pill to replenish his energy.

As for the origin of this Blood Nourishing Pill...

Li Xian retrieved the identity token of inner disciple Ning Wuxia, thus making a contribution, and would surely be rewarded by the sect.

Shen Chenzhou simply brought forward some of the rewards that were originally his.

Just like now, he not only has Blood Nourishing Pills in front of him, but also Qi Gathering Pills.

He used the Whale Swallowing Technique to refine the Blood Nourishing Pill, and then immediately swallowed a Qi Gathering Pill.

After the two energies quickly nourished him, he stretched out his hand, and the red light in his hand, which was originally biased towards blood and qi, quickly became clearer and purer.

“Infuriating!”

He said it softly.

It went more smoothly than he had expected.

True Qi!

It is a force completely different from Qi and blood!
If we say that Qi and blood are like controlling and channeling physical strength, making it manageable, usable, and releaseable, then true Qi...

It's as if an extra energy has appeared in the body, capable of gathering and dispersing at will.

Through this energy, he can even grasp things like "flames," "water," "wind," and "air" directly in his hands, gathering them together without them dispersing.

"After nine days of arduous practice, I have finally succeeded."

Li Xian said something.

Use the false to cultivate the true!

Initial formation of true qi!

Developing true qi does not affect his ability to use qi-force.

However, while it sounds easy to integrate true qi and internal energy into true qi, it is extremely difficult to do.

True Qi requires the unity of spirit and energy.

That is, only when one's spirit and will are extremely concentrated can one mobilize one's blood and qi, transform it into true qi, and attack the enemy.

And the internal force...

Similarly, if you want to combine true qi and physical strength into one, transforming it into true physical strength, you need to focus on two things at once.

Moreover, this process will result in double the consumption of energy.

It is equivalent to both mental and physical oppression.

"Ordinary martial artists can only attempt to combine true qi and blood essence into one and cultivate true qi after successfully reversing their innate state and adjusting their physical essence, qi, and spirit to the peak state achievable by the human body. But I..."

With a thought, Li Xian instantly entered a state of transcendence.

In the transcendent state, the mental state is sublimated and the physical constraints are broken.

He only tried for a short while before he touched upon the direction of fusion between true qi and blood essence.

"It's not difficult. What follows is a process of continuous accumulation and practice. When you're almost there, after hundreds, even thousands of attempts, you'll eventually succeed once."

Once he succeeds, it's equivalent to completing the fusion of true qi and blood essence, and cultivating true essence.

This process...

It may take a few days or several dozen days, but it will eventually be completed.

……

The next day.

Li Xian, Zhou Juechen, Hongyu, and a few others chatted idly in the courtyard.

The one speaking at this moment is Zhou Juechen.

"Qiao Liushui truly deserves his reputation as the eleventh strongest on the Hidden Dragon List. Although we are both flawless, I was subdued by him in just six moves and lost convincingly."

He sighed, “But even he was defeated by Su Jianxing in a crushing victory. And Su Jianxing… ultimately lost to Wei Jiuyi. Even though Su Jianxing had fought six battles beforehand and was exhausted, he was still a step behind Wei Jiuyi. Wei Jiuyi’s true strength was probably no less than Qi Liang’s.”

Li Xian listened to the second half of the competition as if it were a story.

but……

Whether it's Wei Jiuyi, Su Jianxing, or Qi Liang, when he challenged everyone and they didn't even have the courage to step onto the stage, they were basically already excluded from the list of competitors.

As time goes on, the gap between the two sides will widen.

"Once you ride the celestial boat and transform into a dragon to depart, I will also return to Lijiang City."

Zhou Juechen said, "It's time to put up the sign for Longquan Martial Arts School. Although I can't do what you did and roam freely in that new world, I believe that in five years, the name of Longquan Martial Arts School will also spread throughout Jiangzhou."

Are you willing to just go back to Lijiang City like this?

Li asked first.

"It doesn't matter. The world is so vast, where is not a place for cultivation? As long as my inner fire remains burning and my fighting spirit remains undiminished, there is no difference between Lijiang City, the capital, and even a small rural town."

Zhou Juechen said with a smile.

"Do you remember when I told you not long ago that someone would be going to Longquan Martial Arts School to take some things?"

"That token and the map?"

"Correct."

Li Xiandao said, "The Rising Dragon Pavilion has sent people to investigate and found the remains of inner disciple Ning Wuxia. They want to claim the credit for this."

Zhou Juechen had no other thoughts after hearing this, and simply said, "You killed the strongest of the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang, the Blood Eagle. The Azure Eagle and the Sparrowhawk also perished at your hands. The token, the Blood Refining Technique, and the map were gifts from the Xu family's daughter. This credit should rightfully belong to you."

“I have mentioned your contributions to Pavilion Master Shen.”

Li Xiandao said, “You are not a member of the Immortal Sect, so it is difficult to judge how this merit should be rewarded. However, Pavilion Master Shen has given you an appointment. If you agree, you can become a steward of the Rising Dragon Pavilion and become a member of the Rising Dragon Pavilion from now on.”

"Rising Dragon Pavilion!?"

Zhou Juechen was shocked.

"Correct."

Li nodded.

The Ascending Dragon Pavilion is equivalent to the selection point for immortal seedlings and Dao seedlings established by the Great Luo Immortal Sect in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Its status is extraordinary, even surpassing that of the Taixu Sword Palace, the Sacred Martial Pavilion, and the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

"By becoming a steward of the Rising Dragon Pavilion, all the pavilion's resources and cultivation techniques will be available to you."

Li Xian said, "If you can continue to cultivate, it's hard to say about your innate potential, but refining the void into the true essence and cultivating true qi will definitely be within your reach. It all depends on you..."

"I agree!"

Zhou Juechen agreed without hesitation.

He received the Dragon Gate Order and went to the Great Luo Immortal Sect, but the transformation from a snake to a dragon was far beyond his reach.

For him, being able to join the Rising Dragon Pavilion as a steward was already the best possible outcome.
