Chapter 196: The Nine Meridians of Sword Cultivation

(Additional chapter for the leader to take advantage of the situation)

"Oh my god, am I so evil? Why is the success rate of taking the path of magic cultivation 100%? I am obviously a boy with a kind heart and a handsome and sunny appearance!"

Zhang Yang was very depressed.

So he crossed out the item of building a demon heart. With such an interesting soul, why would he cultivate a demon? He should understand his mental cleanliness! "The Golden Elixir Road is the coolest. It will give you longevity. No one will refuse this path of longevity. Moreover, you can become a golden immortal after overcoming the tribulation. Tsk tsk!"

Zhang Yang was very satisfied, but his eyes lingered on the 87% success rate for a long time. Alas, interest does not represent rationality.

"Build an external elixir, cross it out!"

"Building a Spiritual Sea sounds good, but the 89% success rate is worrying."

"So, what about Tsukkenmaru?"

Zhang Yang fell into deep thought. Intellectually speaking, a 93% success rate was the safest level at the moment, but he still hadn't mastered the Qingyun Sword Technique, which inevitably left him with some shadows in his heart. Besides, the long sword was not among his favorite weapons.

"A swordsman who doesn't like swords sounds awkward. Maybe this is an unwise choice of mine."

"Do I look like a graceful swordsman?"

Zhang Yang asked himself, and then he was happy. He still preferred the Golden Elixir Path. "Or, can I be a swordsman who likes to hide? Wait, that should be called an assassin, right? Well, maybe it's not wrong to think so."

As Zhang Yang was thinking this, he suddenly saw a few more lines of annotations behind the five foundation-building options.

"Building the inner elixir - Golden Elixir, five stars in difficulty to get started, three stars in the early stage, four stars in the middle stage, five stars in the late stage, characteristic, survival."

"Building the outer pill - Tempering the body, difficulty three stars to get started, four stars for the early stage, five stars for the middle stage, five stars for the late stage, features, rapid growth, explosive combat, limited lifespan."

"Building the Spiritual Sea - Cultivating the Soul, the difficulty is three stars at the beginning, two stars in the early stage, three stars in the middle stage, and four stars in the late stage. Features: immortal, indestructible, can't beat others, and others can't kill him either."

"Sword Building Pill - Sword Cultivation, five stars in difficulty to get started, four stars in the early stage, five stars in the middle stage, and six stars in the late stage. Features: It is easy to kill yourself before your lifespan ends."

"Building Demon Heart - Demon Cultivation, one star difficulty to get started, five stars very strong in the early stage, five stars very strong in the middle stage, six stars very strong in the late stage, special features, basically can't survive until the late stage."

“Note: The above evaluation only refers to some common situations. If there are any abnormalities, we will not be responsible.”

——

"I see."

Zhang Yang suddenly realized that although this evaluation was incomplete, it was still very meaningful as a reference for a novice like him who was completely in the dark.

"The short-term cultivation of magic is the most cost-effective, the long-term cultivation of golden elixir is the most suitable, if you want to be a lazy person, then cultivate the spiritual sea, if you want to develop hand speed, then cultivate the external elixir to temper the body, and finally, if you are in the middle and can't make a decision, then build the sword pill."

"Then Tsukkenmaru."

Boom! The moment Zhang Yang made his choice, he felt that the incomplete Xianxia Village Building Order that he had bound to him shattered directly. It actually combined into millions of long swords in his mind, crossing the sea of ​​souls, ferrying thousands of thoughts, and in an instant, from virtual to real, piercing every meridian, every bone, internal organs, and even every piece of skin in his body.

He felt like he was being executed.

Then his 917 innate spiritual energies were automatically mobilized. (Author's note: There were 999 originally, but 82 of them were wiped out later and no longer exist. When fighting against the 18th-level false god, the innate spiritual energy that was consumed was just consumption, not damaging the foundation, and it could be restored in a few days, so there are currently 917 remaining.) At this moment, these innate spiritual energies began to forcibly modify the direction of Zhang Yang's meridians, forcibly rebuild the position of his internal organs, and forcibly modify the speed and direction of blood flow under the influence of the unknown force.

During the whole process, some complicated information was injected into his mind, which made him understand what the Sword Building Pill was.

The so-called sword-building pill is similar to building an inner elixir. The inner elixir is under the lower abdomen. There is a saying that one can refine essence into qi, refine qi into spirit, refine spirit into emptiness, and refine emptiness into the Tao.

But the sword ball will not be located in the dantian area below the lower abdomen.

If you want to practice sword skills, you must first - Damn it, I said it wrong!

Practicing sword skills requires mind, and mind comes before sword. Without sword mind, there is no sword practice, so the sword pill is within the soul, that is, inside the head.

Zhang Yang almost suspected that he was a fake sword cultivator. Whose sword pill is in the head? Aren’t they all in the stomach?

But at this time he could no longer decide anything. He could only watch as his meridians were modified beyond recognition, and even various parts of his body underwent corresponding changes.

This process is called self-cultivation, the cultivation of sword and body, that is, man and sword become one, the sword becomes like man, man and sword become one.

As slender and cold as the sword is, the person will also be correspondingly dignified and cold as ice.

If there is a fat swordsman, it is not necessarily a fake, but his sword is just a wretched fat sword.

In short, it’s probably like this.

When Zhang Yang's body was almost completely transformed inside and out, he only had 429 of his 917 innate spiritual energy left. It must be said that the more innate spiritual energy he had, the more advantages he would have when building his foundation.

For example, at this moment, when a small sword ball appeared in Zhang Yang's soul, the remaining innate spiritual energy actually rolled up the remaining long sword and penetrated into his heart meridian, forming a second sword ball here in a moment.

At this point, there were still 59 breaths of his own spiritual energy left, which all flowed into another new meridian in his body, and there was no more movement.

And Zhang Yang's sword-building pill was also completely successful.

"Congratulations, you have completed the mandatory job transfer task. You have successfully jumped above the extraordinary level and advanced to the legendary level."

"Congratulations, you have successfully changed your job to a sword cultivator. The completion rate of the job change process is 100%. You have therefore obtained the complete Sword Cultivator Nine Heavens Meridians (click to view)."

"Sword Cultivation Nine Heaven Meridians refers to the practice of sword cultivators to improve their body meridians to the greatest extent in the initial stage of foundation building in order to advance better. Note: The body meridians of those below the extraordinary level have many disadvantages. If these disadvantages are retained, it will be impossible to break through to the extraordinary level."

"The nine meridians for sword cultivators are: Soul Meridian (1/9), Heart Meridian (1/9), Mind Meridian (0/9), Life Meridian (0/9), Death Meridian (0/9), Spirit Meridian (0/9), Qi Meridian (0/9), Void Meridian (0/9), Gold Meridian (0/9)."

"Explanation: Sword cultivators with the Nine Heavenly Meridians can breed nine great sword pills, each with different effects."

"Soul Vein: The number one life-saving sword pill for sword cultivators. As long as this sword pill is not broken, the soul will not be destroyed. Therefore, those who cultivate the Soul Sword can protect and save themselves."

"Heart Meridian: The first life sword pill of sword cultivators. If this sword pill is not broken, the sword heart will not be destroyed. Therefore, those who cultivate the heart sword will not be moved by external things, and will not encounter demonic obstacles in their practice."

"Yi Mai: The first thing a sword cultivator must cultivate is the sword pill. As long as this sword pill is not broken, the sword intention will not cease. Therefore, a sword cultivator who cultivates Yi Mai can fight for a long time and become more courageous as the battle goes on."

"Shengmai: The first health-preserving sword pill for sword cultivators. If this sword pill is not broken, the vital energy will circulate. Therefore, those who cultivate the Shengmai sword can increase their lifespan. When they reach the ninth level, their lifespan will be as long as the sun and the moon."

"Death Vein: The second life-preserving sword pill for sword cultivators. If this sword pill is not broken, the death energy will circulate. Therefore, those who cultivate the Death Sword can increase their lifespan. When they reach the ninth level, their lifespan will be as long as the sun and the moon."

"Spiritual Veins: The second sword pill for sword cultivators. If this sword pill is not broken, it can replace the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Therefore, those who cultivate spiritual swords can warm up the Nine Heavens Veins (which also requires absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth)."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Qi Meridian: The first combat sword pill for sword cultivators. If this sword pill is not broken, the sword qi will not stop. The qi will move the mind and control thousands of swords. Therefore, those who cultivate qi sword can control the sword to fly, travel through the void, and cut off the enemy's head thousands of miles away."

"Xu Mai: The second combat sword pill of sword cultivators. If this sword pill is not broken, it can hide ten thousand swords. When ten thousand swords return to their origin, the world will be cleansed. Therefore, those who cultivate Xu Jian can change into thousands of different forms and control swords freely."

"Golden Vein: The first sword-tempering pill for sword cultivators. This sword pill is indestructible and can be used to nourish swords and weapons. Day and night, year after year, those who cultivate the golden sword have unparalleled swords and weapons. The heaven and earth can be transformed into swords, and nothing can be broken."

——

"I feel like I hit the jackpot!"

When Zhang Yang finished reading the information and data about sword cultivators, he finally understood why he could never grasp the true meaning of Qingyun Sword Controlling Technique, and why he knew the truth was like this but just couldn't find the feeling.

It turns out that the nine great heavenly veins and nine great sword pills are missing.

In addition, sword cultivators also need to absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth, so they are still considered a type of immortal cultivator.

Before, Zhang Yang was thinking about practicing multiple skills at the same time, but now it seems that these five foundation building skills each have their own niche and they are simply incompatible. It’s not that he can’t, but he just doesn’t have enough energy and resources.

There are nine great heavenly veins, each with nine layers of sword balls. How long will it take to cultivate them all? He had 917 innate spiritual energy before, so he suddenly had two sword balls. This was a good start.

"The Soul Meridian Sword Pill and the Heart Meridian Sword Pill are the foundation and must be fully cultivated. However, right now, the two major meridians that I need to open up the most are the Mind Meridian and the Qi Meridian. The Mind Meridian Sword Pill can increase the sword intent, and the Qi Meridian Sword Pill can generate sword energy, which is necessary for fighting."

Zhang Yang thought about it, and then looked at his attributes in the main village construction order again, and sure enough, everything had changed.

Without the four major attributes of soul, strength, agility and defense.

It is just a lonely sword cultivation attribute.

Name: Zhang Yang

Occupation: Swordsman

Strength level: Legend

This is too low-key.

Zhang Yang tried to release the soul force field and there was no problem.

He then tried to construct the second and fourth closed circles and had no problem at all.

Even the forbidden spells are the same.

Then when Zhang Yang suddenly thought of the Qingyun Sword-riding Technique, things were suddenly different. He seemed to be automatically attracted to it. He reviewed the three parts of the Qingyun Sword-riding Technique in a few seconds. It was not a hurried review, but he stood at a certain height and looked down at it.

Many things that were previously unnoticeable, incomprehensible, and unfindable were instantly integrated at this moment! The next second, an extra line of information appeared on the attributes of his village building order.

He has perfectly mastered the one-star sword-wielding technique.

This was too fast! Zhang Yang was stunned. He swore that he was not a genius in cultivation. There could only be two reasons. First, his sword cultivation Nine Heavens Meridian was too strong, and second, the Qingyun Sword Controlling Technique was too rubbish.

After standing there for a long time, Zhang Yang suddenly heard footsteps. Then he released his soul force field without looking back. However, it was not the soul force field he had before. Instead, it was released in the form of a soul vein sword pill after he had comprehended and mastered the Qingyun Sword Controlling Technique.

"boom!"

An invisible sword! From the secret room of Anya City Lord's Mansion to the outer garden, a total of 28 stone walls were directly pierced, and this was not a destructive hole, but a neat cut.

One hundred and eighty meters, not a centimeter more or less.

Zhang Yang walked out with his hands behind his back. In the distance, an old man was sweating profusely, his legs trembling, and in front of him, a strand of his hair was fluttering down.
