Chapter 489: Chapter 489: Open Another Vein

рlease,reading On ΒΟXΝOVEL.ϹʘM

In the Dragon Blood Pool, Yang Xuanfeng, Han Xiaoxing and Fang Lin were all enveloped in a golden glow. One could not see their current state, only sense the formidable aura emanating continuously from them. This suggested that the three were utilizing the power of the Dragon Blood Pool to enhance their abilities.

The purpose of the Dragon Blood Pool wasn’t limited to tempering the physical body—it could significantly elevate one’s realm as well.

Practicing within the Dragon Blood Pool could very well lead to twice the results in half the time—a most efficient process.

Once a genius had merely practiced in the Dragon Blood Pool for two months, and he advanced directly from the peak of the Earth Element Ninth Layer to the Heavenly Origin realm.

Fang Lin’s present sensations were incredibly unique. It was as if every vein in his body had been opened. Power from the Dragon Blood Pool continually poured into his body, providing Fang Lin with an extremely comfortable sense of fulfillment.

Nevertheless, Fang Lin swiftly noticed that something was amiss. The power within the Dragon Blood Pool seemed too overwhelming, too difficult for an Earth Element Martial Artist to bear.

It was akin to attempting to fit the water of a large river into a wooden basin—clearly an impossibility.

The power within the Dragon Blood Pool was like the river water, and Fang Lin’s body was like the wooden basin.

Fang Lin circulated the Nine Cauldron Skypassing Spell, accelerating the absorption of the True Dragon Qi. However, the consequence of doing so was that his body had to bear an even greater pressure.

“It seems I must open another energy channel.” Fang Lin muttered to himself in his heart as he reached for a pill.

This pill, known as the Purple Heart Open Meridians Pill, was an advanced version of the Enlightening Pill. It belonged to the category of fourth-grade pills.

The pill wasn’t refined by Fang Lin, but instead obtained from Gu Daofeng’s Nine Palace Bag. Presumably, Gu Daofeng had refined it, intending it for Gu Hanshan to use in opening the seventy-two channels.

Unfortunately, Gu Daofeng was dead, and the Purple Heart Open Meridians Pill had ended up benefiting Fang Lin instead.

The human body has thirty-six minor channels and seventy-two major channels. Before the Spirit Vein realm, a Martial Artist would at most open the thirty-six minor channels.

After all thirty-six minor channels have been opened, the Martial Artist would then gradually open the seventy-two major channels. Only after all seventy-two major channels have been opened does one enter the Spirit Vein realm, where the body is fully connected like a cycle. The Inner Strength circulates indefinitely, continuously repeating the cycle.

When Fang Lin previously consumed the Enlightening Pill, he unexpectedly opened one of the seventy-two major channels. It could be considered a serendipitous joy, causing Fang Lin’s Inner Strength to be significantly more abundant than others at the same stage.

Now, Fang Lin felt that it was not enough and wanted to use this Purple Heart Open Meridians Pill to open another main channel.

This notion could be considered audacious, as there are not many people who can open any of the seventy-two main channels at the Earth Element realm. Only upon reaching the Heavenly Origin realm does one gradually begin to attempt opening the seventy-two channels.

Those who have attempted to open the seventy-two channels in the Earth Element realm are not nonexistent, but successful individuals are exceedingly rare, and there is a high risk of injury to their energy channels, hence it is generally not worthwhile.

However, the current situation provides an excellent opportunity. Being in the Dragon Blood Pool provides an abundance of power to aid in assaulting the energy channels. Coupled with a high-quality Purple Heart Open Meridians Pill, the success rate is at least over sixty percent, so Fang Lin naturally would risk it.

Without any hesitation, Fang Lin immediately swallowed the Purple Heart Open Meridians Pill. The moment the pill entered his mouth, it immediately transformed into the most refined medicinal power and permeated into Fang Lin’s body.

After a short while, the effect of the pill began to take action, pouring into one of the seventy-two channels, intending to open it.

Seeing this chance, Fang Lin hastened to absorb the power within the Dragon Blood Pool, letting it enter his body together and jointly assault the obstructed energy channel.

Such a behavior was highly risky, but Fang Lin was confident in his success, and so the risk didn’t matter.

Fang Lin could hear thunderous sounds within his body. These were the sounds of the Purple Heart Open Meridians Pill assaulting the energy channels. They were sound only Fang Lin himself could hear. Moreover, every single assault would make Fang Lin’s body spasm. The feeling was unbearable, causing his expression to contort somewhat.

With each succeeding assault, the obstructed energy channel began to loosen slightly. Fang Lin let out a low growl in his heart, driving the Nine Cauldron Skypassing Spell to its maximum. Massive amounts of True Dragon Qi surged into his body, transforming into an extremely formidable force.

Boom!!!!

A huge sound echoed within Fang Lin’s body, as if some kind of formidable barrier had been shattered.

That obstructed main channel was finally opened by Fang Lin. At that moment, his Inner Strength and vital blood surged into the energy channel, leading to a continuous rise in Fang Lin’s aura.

With this, two out of Fang Lin’s seventy-two energy channels were now opened, leaving seventy still closed.

This is a long and daunting challenge. Opening all seventy-two energy channels to enter the Spirit Vein realm is far off for Fang Lin. He isn’t even in the Heavenly Origin realm yet, so it’s impossible to open the remaining energy channels. Opening two main channels at this stage is already extremely astonishing.

From this perspective, Fang Lin has a significant advantage over his peers. At least among Fang Lin’s known contemporaries, no one has opened even a single main channel.

The opening of two main channels allowed Fang Lin to accommodate more Inner Strength and absorb a more colossal True Dragon Qi.

If someone was here, they would clearly see the changes occurring in Fang Lin’s body.

Gradually, one could see a fine layer of black powder being expelled from Fang Lin’s body. The golden glow enveloping his entire body carried it away, preventing it from contaminating the Dragon Blood Pool.

This was the impurity within Fang Lin’s body. The last time Fang Lin was inside the Pill Pole Tower and utilized the Hundred Flowers Spring to temper his body, many impurities were expelled. However, the body contains many impurities; they cannot be completely removed in just one go.

This time, using the power of the Dragon Blood Pool, even more impurities from Fang Lin’s body were expelled, making his body even more pure and sturdy.

Of course, it’s impossible to remove all of the impurities. One or two rounds of body tempering are far from enough.

After all, the world is full of impure air. Humans live within this world, and after many years, accumulate an enormous amount of impurities within their bodies—more than one could imagine.

Perhaps only some superpowers could, from a baby’s birth, use medicinal liquids for baptism, persisting for decades. Such a baby would grow with minimal impurities within their body, considered to have the purest physical body, enjoying an unparalleled advantage.

Such physical body was generally referred to as an Innate Body. But to cultivate an Innate Body requires a vast amount of resources—an astronomical cost—that most large forces couldn’t afford. At least in the Lower Three Kingdoms, fearfully few powers had such capabilities—it could be said there were none at all.

Fang Lin naturally understood the benefits of an Innate Body, but after all his body was taken from others and his starting point was too low. So it was basically impossible for him to become an Innate Body.

Unless he encounters a massive stroke of luck.

Before he knew it, Fang Lin’s state of cultivation was getting better, and his whole person was extremely calm, achieving unity of body and mind.

Suddenly, a huge, ancient and time-worn bronze gate appeared before Fang Lin’s eyes.
