Return of the Ancient Gods

"Ah!" A shrill scream came from the house.

At this moment, a bolt of thunder descended from the sky and landed directly on the meditation room where Chu Nan was, destroying the roof. The shadow of Xuanmai appeared clearly in the air.

Twelve mysterious veins appear!

When the smoke and dust cleared, the frightened onlookers were shocked to see the scene in the sky, as if they had seen a monster. The scene before them was completely beyond their cognition.

Even the princess's personal servant, Old Xu, was amazed. Even though she had a lot of experience, she couldn't explain what was going on. She asked in a low voice:

"Congratulations, Princess! But I don't understand. Isn't it said that humans can only open nine mysterious veins at most? Why can the young master open twelve mysterious veins?"

"Human bodies are weak, so nine meridians are the limit. But as long as the body is strong enough, it can actually move towards the twelve meridians like a pure-blooded beast." The princess explained patiently, staring at Chu Nan with a smile on her face.

“It’s just that it’s not easy to cultivate the physical body. Even if you succeed in cultivation, you’ve already missed the golden period for opening up the profound veins. Not everyone has enough courage to do this.”

"It is true. It is not easy to cultivate. I would not be willing to give up. There are very few people like the prince." Old Xu said thoughtfully. She herself has limited talent. She has paid too much to cultivate to her current level. Although breaking down and then building up can lead to a broader future, she still will not choose it.

“And this requires some special methods.”

When the people of Yuncheng heard this, although they didn't quite understand it, they knew it was of great significance:

"Imagine that the young prince entered the Xiantian realm at the age of seven, becoming the youngest to do so; at the age of ten, he was able to lift a hundred thousand pounds, and his body could rival that of a pure-blooded ferocious beast cub. He possessed the qualities of a supreme youth, and was praised by others as the reincarnation of a banished immortal or a natural god. His demeanor was truly extremely charming."

An excited old man immediately knelt on the ground and shouted to the sky:

"I never thought I would be able to see such a sight in my lifetime. It is said that when the young master was born, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky, but we were not able to see it. Today I can make up for the regret."

And in the house,

Although being struck by lightning did not threaten one's life, it was indeed an unpleasant experience. One's whole body was numb and in great pain. Lightning was surging on Chu Nan's body, making "thunderbolt" sounds, and lightning flashed in his eyes.

Now the twelfth profound vein was opened, but Chu Nan had no intention of stopping. The thunderbolt just now gave him inspiration, and he was guided by the heaven.

"What was going through my mind just now? Could it be that twelve profound veins is not the limit?

It is no longer possible to rely solely on Huayang acupuncture. If we want to make further progress, we must make some changes..."

Attract heavenly thunder and open the mysterious veins!

Chu Nan only thought of this method and completely ignored the danger involved.

Seeing Chu Nan's actions, the old man hiding nearby also changed color. He was originally satisfied with Chu Nan's performance, but now he also took it seriously. He raised his hand gently to help him pull the thunder.

“You are brave and daring, but can you take a different path and overturn everything that has been done before you?”

The thunder from the sky fell and directly shattered the virtual image of the mysterious veins. In the thunder area, Chu Nan's whole body was shining due to the electric shock, and the bones and meridians in his body were clearly visible.

After deciding to take this step, Chu Nan no longer had any support or guidance. He could only try and explore according to the most basic methods, enduring unimaginable pain every moment and screaming continuously.

If it were anyone else, such pain would have been beyond their endurance limit, but Chu Nan was still struggling to hold on.

This was not only due to his amazing willpower, but also to the solid physical foundation laid by his hard training since childhood.

As Chu Nan's shouts gradually faded, the crowd gradually realized that Chu Nan was not using the thunder to temper his body, but just wanted to rescue but had no way to do it:

Thunder continued to roar, intending to repel everyone. Whenever someone tried to move forward, they would be severely hit. One of them was even charred and turned into a charcoal-roasted pig's head.

Under the stimulation of the heavenly thunder, Chu Nan felt something stirring inside his body, like a seed buried deep in the soil finally breaking through the ground and sprouting, and it was about to overwhelm the other twelve mysterious veins with its own power.

efficient!

Chu Nan's confidence surged, and he used all his strength to stimulate the thirteenth strange mysterious vein. With his energy flowing through it, the phantom of the mysterious vein appeared once again.

The thirteenth mysterious vein has not yet formed and is now just a point of light.

Aware of the crowd around him, the old man quickly cast a spell to cover up Chu Nan's mysterious vein, but before he could, a dazzling light descended from the sky, covering up the brilliance.

"It seems that your guess is correct!" Looking at Chu Nan's thirteenth mysterious vein gradually appearing, the old man muttered to himself with a complicated look.

Chu Nan was concentrating with his eyes closed, and his mind was wandering unconsciously. The mysterious dream appeared in his mind. In the chaos, a seedling was slowly growing.

“Is this the state of my soul? What exactly is this seedling that continuously nourishes my soul and condenses into a physical entity?”

In the soul world, Chu Nan sorted out his true soul, and under the guidance of the soul, his body began to move synchronously. The thirteenth mysterious vein was like a flower bud blooming under the nourishment of spring rain.

He slowly opened his eyes, his eyes shining brightly, and Chu Nan's entire temperament changed slightly, becoming more calm and reserved.

The thirteenth mysterious vein was finally opened successfully!

"Ah!" Chu Nan raised his arms, shouted loudly, and used his strength to expel all the golden needles from his body.

The spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth was in turmoil, and a severe wind blew up, making it impossible for people to open their eyes, and even excluded them from getting close.

At the moment when the thirteenth profound vein appeared, a dazzling light descended from the sky, covering Chu Nan's thirteenth profound vein. Except for a few people, everyone present only knew that Chu Nan had opened twelve profound veins.

The old man secretly conveyed a message to Chu Nan, telling him not to let anyone know his secret.

The dazzling rays of light seemed to carry magical healing powers, and Chu Nan began to recover. His pale face regained a little color, and with the nourishment of the thirteen mysterious veins, his injuries healed quickly, and the wounds scabbed and fell off at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He retracted the shadow of the mysterious vein, and the rosy glow disappeared.

The Xuanmai was successfully opened up, and he could start practicing. However, after looking around, Chu Nan scratched his head shyly and laughed.

"I think I made a lot of noise!"

In addition to the hundreds of people watching at the scene, the meditation room was destroyed by the thunder that just happened, and the surrounding houses were also affected.

Fortunately, only the houses were destroyed and no one was injured, so the matter was much simpler to deal with.

"The cost of repairs will naturally be paid by our Demon Suppression Palace. In addition, I will help the young men in your family with acupuncture and reopen their profound meridians. What do you think?"
