Zhang Yuan sat cross-legged, adjusted his breathing, and sat quietly for a while. Then he regulated his internal energy and guided it upwards along the Guanyuan, Huiyin, Yaoyangguan, and Dazhui acupoints.
When the true qi reaches the Baihui acupoint, it is clearly blocked!
Guided by Zhang Yuan's will, the true qi in the Du meridian gathered like river water and then began to impact the Baihui acupoint!
Once, twice!
The Baihui acupoint is completely blocked, and the true qi can't get through, just like before!
Zhang Yuan gave up on directly attempting to break through the barrier. He opened his eyes, picked up the chewing gum box beside him, poured out a Foundation Establishment Pill, and swallowed it.
As the Foundation Establishment Pill was swallowed, a massive surge of true energy erupted from it, flowing through the limbs and bones and entering the Ren and Du meridians and capillaries!
Without conscious guidance, the spiritual energy of the Foundation Establishment Pill will freely circulate throughout the body and meridians.
Zhang Yuan quickly focused his mind and used his will to guide the spiritual energy into the Du meridian on his back.
Zhang Yuan's Du meridian is now like a small river, with true qi flowing gently in the riverbed, but the Baihui acupoint is blocked by a large rock.
The river's flow was not strong to begin with, so it was unable to wash away the rock on Baihui acupoint.
Now, the true qi in the Du meridian, replenished by the spiritual energy of the Foundation Building Pill, is like water in a river being replenished in large quantities, forming a stronger current that flows along the Du meridian and strikes the Baihui acupoint.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Once, twice, three times!
Zhang Yuan's forehead was covered in a light sheen of sweat, but he still couldn't open up the Baihui acupoint!
Baihui acupoint is a major acupoint in the human body and an extremely important acupoint in cultivation. It is the watershed between the Foundation Establishment Realm and the Meridian Opening Realm!
Once the Baihui acupoint is opened, one enters the Meridian Opening Realm, commonly known as the Human Immortal Realm, where lifespan and strength will be greatly enhanced!
One Foundation Building Pill couldn't even open the Baihui acupoint!
Zhang Yuan opened his eyes again, staring at the last Foundation Establishment Pill in the chewing gum bottle, hesitating whether to eat it as well.
Last time, he ate a Foundation Establishment Pill, which was about the same size as these two. After eating it, he almost burst his meridians. Therefore, Zhang Yuan has a psychological aversion to it.
Eating two pills this time is such a large amount, will it cause my meridians to burst again?
After much hesitation, Zhang Yuan decided to eat the last one and give it his all!
Since nothing happened last time, nothing should happen this time either!
After all, the Yaoyangguan and Dazhui acupoints weren't open last time, so theoretically the body's tolerance and capacity should be stronger now than last time.
Zhang Yuan picked up the last Foundation Establishment Pill and swallowed it!
A large amount of spiritual energy surged into the body again!
This feeling is like having too much nutrition in your body, like you've eaten too much and feel a bit uncomfortable!
However, this time it was indeed better than the last time!
A large amount of true energy surged into the body, but this time, there was no feeling that the meridians were about to burst. Just as Zhang Yuan had predicted, after the Yaoyangguan and Dazhui acupoints were opened, the body was indeed stronger and could accommodate more spiritual energy.
Zhang Yuan used his mind to guide all the true energy into the Du meridian again, and then combined it with the original true energy in the Du meridian.
At this moment, the true energy in the Du meridian is like the river water after a rainstorm, surging and turbulent!
Talking nonstop!
boom!
Rumble!
Guided by his will, the powerful true energy surged forcefully into the Baihui acupoint. This time, the Baihui acupoint loosened, as if a door was about to be opened!
Zhang Yuan was drenched in sweat!
Just a tiny bit more!!
But the Foundation Establishment Pill was no longer available, and even if it were, he wouldn't dare to take it.
If too much vital energy enters the body in a short period of time, it will cause the meridians to burst, turning a perfectly healthy person into a fool or cripple!
what to do?
Suddenly, Zhang Yuan had a flash of inspiration and came up with a plan.
He guided the true qi of the Guanyuan, Huiyin, Yaoyangguan, Dazhui, and Yongquan acupoints with his mind, and they exerted their power together!
When these acupoints open, they absorb a lot of vital energy. If some of the vital energy in the acupoints is drawn out, it might be possible to open the Baihui acupoint!
As Zhang Yuan guided the energy again, each acupoint, including Guanyuan, Huiyin, and Yaoyangguan, released some true energy, with Guanyuan releasing the most.
These vital energies converge into the Governing Vessel and jointly impact the Baihui acupoint!
The Baihui acupoint finally opened with a popping sound!
The moment the Du meridian on the back and the Ren meridian on the chest are opened at the Baihui acupoint, the true Qi in the two meridians automatically circulates!
At the same time, it felt as if a hole had been opened in Zhang Yuan's skull, and a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth flowed into his meridians and body through his Baihui acupoint!
This state lasted for about half an hour.
Zhang Yuan then opened his eyes.
A faint golden light shone from his eyes.
"Is this the Meridian Opening Realm?"
Ha ha!
It worked!
After reaching the Meridian Opening Realm, a cultivator's lifespan can increase to 150 years, and they will basically not get sick like ordinary people.
In the Great Xia Kingdom, the average lifespan is only eighty years, and living to ninety is considered a long life. Therefore, breaking through to the Meridian Opening Realm is of extraordinary significance to someone like Zhang Yuan, who has been weak and sickly since childhood and has been tormented by illness.
Furthermore, once he reaches the Meridian Opening Realm, he will be able to learn and cultivate some simple magical spells and supernatural abilities!
Zhang Yuan was overjoyed.
He stood up and felt the changes in his body after the breakthrough.
She was as light as a swallow, walking with a light and airy gait, as if she had no weight at all.
My skin is also more delicate than before, fair and smooth with a radiant glow, even better than that of girls.
Furthermore, once the Baihui acupoint is opened, it can automatically open and close according to Zhang Yuan's will. As long as he exerts a thought, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can enter his body through the Baihui acupoint.
Moreover, the body's absorption rate of external spiritual energy has now increased by at least 100%!
After breaking through his cultivation level, Zhang Yuan expelled some foul-smelling, black substance from his body.
Because his cultivation had broken through a major realm, Zhang Yuan hummed a song happily as he went to the bathroom to take a shower!
...
late at night!
The cold wind was biting.
At Tongcheng University, three people—one man and two women—wrapped in thick clothes, walked along the dormitory corridor against the howling north wind.
The boy walked ahead, escorting the two girls back to their dorm.
The three of them chatted and laughed all the way.
As they approached Building 17, the short-haired girl, who was rather short, became noticeably nervous.
She tugged at her female companion's hand and said nervously, "Building 17 is up ahead. That's where the art school girl had her accident last night!"
The other long-haired girl and the boy walking in front felt a little scared when the short girl suddenly brought it up.
However, the boy was clearly bolder than the girl. After a few seconds of hesitation, the boy began to comfort the two girls.
"Don't be afraid, there are no ghosts in this world, don't scare yourself!"
Just as the boy finished speaking, a strong wind blew by, rustling the locust trees along the roadside.
The roadside utility poles were also swaying slightly in the strong wind.
The lights flickered and crackled.
"This is really weird!"
The boy thought to himself, but pretended to remain calm.
"Why does this wind feel so eerie?"
The short-haired girl said.
Suddenly, she felt something flash past behind her. The short-haired girl immediately turned around and saw a pale, ghostly face!
"A ghost!"
The short-haired girl screamed!
The sharp scream startled another girl next to her and the boy who was with her.
The boy in front mustered up his courage and turned around, but he didn't see any ghosts. He only saw two girls holding hands, huddled together, their bodies trembling!
The boy chuckled and said, "Look how scared you are! There are no ghosts in this world. There's nothing behind you!"
"Believe in science, there can't be ghosts in this world!"
"That's what the boy said."
But the two girls looked even more terrified!
The long-haired girl pointed tremblingly behind the boy and said, "He's, he's, behind you!!"
The boy suddenly stopped laughing; his legs began to tremble, and then he slowly turned around.
A deathly white head floated in the air, giving him a sinister smile, and beneath the head was nothing!
"A ghost!"
The boy's scream was even louder than the two girls'!
At that moment, his mind went blank, and then he took off running, completely ignoring the two girls behind him!
After the boy ran away in fright, the two girls realized what had happened, secretly cursing the boy for being disloyal, and then they also ran back to their dormitory!
