Chapter 26: Advancement. Drops of sweat flowed from Xu Hui's forehead.
Drops of sweat flowed from her forehead. Xu Hui's eyes were firm and she was concentrating on fighting the enemy. She was sensing every move of the puppet and could predict every attack and counterattack in advance.
Suddenly, the puppet raised the sword, and all the spiritual power gathered on it, emitting a dazzling white light.
Xu Hui understood that this puppet, which had reached the great perfection of the Qi Refining Stage, was about to deliver its final attack!
This kind of scene happened countless times. She had always run away before, but this time she didn't hesitate and raised her sword to block.
"Boom——" The powerful spiritual powers collided with each other, making a huge roar. The surrounding walls were shaken and became shaky.
The puppet in front of him crashed to the ground, and the knife broke into two pieces.
Xu Hui's vision went black, her dantian felt empty, and her whole body felt weak. Her surroundings then changed, and she was transported to an unfamiliar place. She could no longer hold on and fell forward.
She intended to insert the magic sword in her hand into the ground to support her body, but unexpectedly, the sword broke and she fell down.
It’s over, I’m going to be disfigured.
This was Xu Hui’s first thought, and then she remembered that her defensive magic weapon was turned on, and she felt a little relieved.
However, the next second, she was grabbed by a hand and stood firmly in place.
A familiar medicinal fragrance came from her nose, and Xu Hui's mind relaxed, and she fell into complete darkness.
Wei Mubai frowned when he saw her faint, and took her pulse to check. He found that not only was her spiritual power exhausted, but she also had many hidden injuries in her body. These were all caused by her swallowing pills and continuing to fight without waiting for her spiritual power to recover after being injured.
He helped the person sit down and injected spiritual power into Xu Hui's body.
As a cultivator with ethereal roots, Wei Mubai's spiritual power has many uses. As long as he wants, theoretically, everything is possible.
Of course, a Jindan stage cultivator is not a god, so he naturally cannot be omnipotent.
He just practiced the skills he wanted according to his needs.
For example, the "Secret of Longevity" that nourishes the body was specially practiced for my younger sister.
Xu Hui was the second person he nourished, and the effect was unexpectedly good. When the spiritual power was injected into him, it was immediately absorbed by Xu Hui's Qi Sea, turned into his own spiritual power, and flowed through his meridians, repairing hidden injuries bit by bit and tempering his body at the same time.
After noticing this change, Wei Mubai injected more spiritual power without hesitation.
Xu Hui's qi sea was like a bottomless pit, it could absorb whatever was injected into it, and the spiritual power that rushed into the meridians became more and more, becoming more and more full.
Then, the meridians suddenly broke, one, two... all the meridians began to become unstable and fragmented.
But this is not a bad thing, because the next second, those wounds were repaired, became tougher, and doubled in size.
After this wave of injuries passed, the spiritual energy began to flow steadily in the meridians, and new changes began to appear.
The normal operation of spiritual power was to flow along the twelve main meridians, with a total of 36 main academy points and 108 secondary academy points. After cultivation, all of them were opened up to form a cycle.
This was the case before Xu Hui, and most cultivators are like this as well.
But in addition to these, there are 360 strange acupoints in the human body. Some of these acupoints are important, and some have special functions, such as the sleep acupoint. If you press it, you will fall asleep instantly. Others are of no use.
These acupoints are spread all over the body and are not normally used. You only need to pay attention to them when you are sick to see if they are blocked.
However, the spiritual power in Xu Hui's body, after circulating once, began to impact these strange acupoints, and as if out of control, it rushed around, causing the meridians in some acupoints to be broken, and some acupoints to be directly blocked.
Different acupoints can easily cause illness, and broken meridians will make her unable to control certain parts of her body.
Therefore, this is extremely dangerous. After a long battle, Xu Hui was exhausted and fell into a deep sleep. Even the pain of broken meridians could not wake her up.
Forcibly waking her up would hurt her soul.
Wei Mubai frowned slightly, "Rash and reckless!"
But his movements were slow and calm, and he continuously poured spiritual power into Xu Hui's body, guiding that spiritual power to attack Qixue in an orderly manner, starting with twelve, and after success it became twenty-four, and then thirty-six.
Some academy positions are unimportant and can be opened directly, while some are very dangerous and require extreme caution.
Wei Mubai was so focused that he didn't even bother to wipe the sweat from his forehead. All his attention was focused on the spiritual power flowing through Xu Hui's body.
Finally, after two hours, all 360 Qixue were opened, forming a large Zhoutian cycle.
In this way, Xu Hui has two spiritual power circulation systems in his body, the big circulation and the small circulation.
The small circulation is the twelve main meridians mentioned above, while the large circulation is spread throughout the body, including all 360 strange acupoints.
With so many learning spaces, it takes at least three or four times as long as others to run a full cycle.
But the spiritual power she absorbed far exceeded that of others. Others absorbed spiritual power by formally reaching 144 academy points, while Xu Hui absorbed 360 more, which was several times the difference.
After leaving behind a trace of spiritual power, Wei Mubai slowly withdrew his hand and closed his eyes to meditate.
Helping Xu Hui to open up Qixue consumed most of his spiritual energy. Most importantly, he had to concentrate on it for two whole hours, which was more tiring than refining the elixir for three days and three nights, and it left him exhausted.
Two days later, Xu Hui woke up from her sleep, feeling refreshed and comfortable all over, as if she was soaking in a hot spring, and every part of her body felt comfortable.
But then, she realized something was wrong. She seemed to have better control over her body and could control every part of it with ease.
This feeling is very strange, I have never felt it before.
Even in your own body, if you don't deliberately perceive or use it, you will sometimes ignore the existence of a certain part.
But now it’s different. She feels that it exists everywhere in her body, and sensing her body is as natural as sensing her soul.
This made her feel something was wrong, and she immediately opened her eyes to check.
"Calm your mind, concentrate, and circulate your spiritual power!" Wei Mubai's cool and pleasant voice sounded in her ears. She was stunned and unconsciously circulated her energy according to these words.
He suddenly discovered that the acupoints in his body were spread all over like stars, and each one was opened and lit up.
The spiritual power flowed in smoothly and freely without any delay, gradually filling every acupoint.
When all her acupoints and meridians were filled with spiritual energy, she felt a trace of pain. From her blood to her bones, from her skin to her muscles, it seemed as if everything was being washed away. Waves of impurities were squeezed out and dissipated after being squeezed out of her body surface.
Xu Hui understood that this was a cleansing of the essence and marrow, which was not as good as the previous improvement of the strength of the spiritual roots, but it was also an opportunity to temper the body.
He ignored the pain and let his spiritual energy flow throughout his body, filling all his acupoints over and over again.
The impurities were squeezed out little by little, from little to much, and then gradually became less. Sweat, blood stains, and impurities appeared on the surface of her skin, and were then washed away by spiritual power and dissipated into nothingness.
I don’t know how long it took, or how many times I rinsed it, but finally, I could no longer squeeze out any more impurities. I just felt light all over, and my physical strength increased by several levels.
In addition to being whiter like jade, having more delicate facial features and a perfect body shape, there is also the most important point.
She has completed the initial stage of body building, and her current physical fitness is sufficient to support her until the late stage of foundation building.
In other words, as long as the spiritual power is sufficient and the state of mind can keep up, one can build the foundation without any obstacles, and even does not need the tempering of the foundation-building pill. The body will be stronger by more than a little.
Originally, her spiritual power was already at full capacity, but the reason she didn't advance was that her physical fitness couldn't keep up. Now that this obstacle is gone, her cultivation level is rising rapidly, and she has directly entered the great perfection of Qi training.
But the spiritual power was still pouring in, and after 504 acupoints absorbed it at full strength, she almost sucked out all the spiritual power around her.
If Wei Mubai had not been quick to set up a formation and fill it with high-quality spirit stones, her path to advancement would have been interrupted.
However, she did not take advantage of this opportunity to build her foundation directly, but stopped after reaching perfection.
The reason was simple, she was worried that her state of mind could not keep up.
Apart from anything else, the fact that she would be a cannon fodder always weighed on her mind, making her feel uneasy.
Although foundation building is not like golden elixir, which requires a test of conscience, any worries in the heart will always have an impact on foundation building.
Practicing Qi is just the beginning, building the foundation is the real step into the immortal path. If the foundation is perfect, future practice will be twice as effective with half the effort.
Xu Hui didn't want to be too eager for quick success and instant benefits, which would affect her future path to immortality.
Seeing her stop, Wei Mubai also withdrew his hand that was holding the spirit stone.
Xu Hui looked around and found that the surrounding area was full of waste residue from high-grade spirit stones. She couldn't help but feel embarrassed and smiled at him ingratiatingly, "Thank you."
Wei Mubai looked at her silently, which made Xu Hui's scalp tingle. She wanted to say something to defend herself, but when she met his calm gaze, she couldn't say anything. She could only mumble, "I'm sorry, I was wrong. I will never take such a risk next time."
Wei Mubai stared at her, causing her to lower her head in shame. "It's time for you to see some blood."
Only by experiencing real danger can one learn to be cautious, rather than acting recklessly just because one has someone to rely on.
Not to mention in a secret realm, even in one's own cave, one should not use up all spiritual power for practice. Xu Hui is too naive.
Actually, it’s not Xu Hui’s fault. Having grown up in a peaceful era, she has never really faced danger. Although she knows that this is a cruel world through Wan Moxiao’s memories, she has not yet adjusted to it in her subconscious.
Besides, before, he was either in the safe Wei family or Wei Mubai was always by his side.
He is a Jindan stage cultivator. If he can't even stop him, then no matter how cautious Xu Hui is, it will be useless.
Therefore, she never lacked a sense of security. This was the confidence brought by the stability of the country and society in the past 18 years. It was also one of the obstacles for her survival in this world. She needed to see real killing in order to erase the carelessness in her nature and the mentality of giving her all without leaving any room for maneuver, and learn to be truly cautious.
The time travelers who have someone to back them up are fundamentally different from the indigenous people who live in a world where the strong prey on the weak.
Although Xu Hui realized this, it was not profound!
In Wei Mubai's words, she needs a bloody lesson!
Xu Hui opened her mouth and said, "I was wrong. What should I do?"
Wei Mubai glanced at her and pointed at one of the cave entrances, saying, "There are monsters inside, kill them all!"
