Chapter 7

What did it mean by heaven and hell was only within a flash of thought? Ye Tian finally understood what was going on with this operation, and his bones almost fell apart.

He slowly opened his eyes, and there was a faint golden light that flashed past. He felt unprecedentedly comfortable and relaxed. His body was as light as a swallow, and he even felt as if he was about to ascend to the heaven.

“Is this the benefit of meridian and marrow cleansing? It’s indeed extraordinary.”

Ye Xuan couldn’t help but sigh. It was really good, but the pain just now was also extreme. He had almost fainted. If it wasn’t for his strong willpower, he would have already passed out.

However, the benefits he obtained were also huge. He felt full of strength.

“Maybe it can even wash away my useless spirit root and replace it with a more powerful spirit root, such as a Lightning spirit root, which is not bad.”

Ye Xuan’s lips curled into a smile as he thought about it happily. He wanted to see his spirit root, but in the next second, his smile froze at the corner of his mouth, and he couldn’t help but curse.

Reality bit.

“Where did my big spirit root go?”

“System, hurry up and explain.”

[The system is unable to explain. Please explore on your own, host.]

The veins on Ye Xuan’s forehead bulged. For a moment, he really wanted to pull the system out of his mind and beat it up.

The system probably sensed his extreme emotions and quickly tried to salvage the situation.

[Don’t worry, host. It’s a good thing that you don’t have a spirit root now. Have you ever heard of the saying ‘creating something out of nothing’?]

“No,” Ye Xuan replied expressionlessly.

[Anyway, the system won’t cheat you.]

After saying this, the system pretended to be dead and went offline. No matter how Ye Xuan shouted, there was no response.

Forget it, so be it if he didn’t have a spirit root. Under normal circumstances, without a spirit root meant that he had no fate with cultivation. He couldn’t sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and he couldn’t draw spiritual energy into his body.

However, the key was that even though Ye Xuan had a useless spirit root before, he had already drawn in spiritual energy. Although level 2 of Human Realm was a little low, it was still a grade. Therefore, the current situation was a little strange. Even he himself was not sure what was going on.

However, the more amazing thing was that ordinary people could only open up a few acupoints at most, while cultivators could only open up around 20 to 30 acupoints according to their cultivation levels and realms. Even the top powerhouse could only open up slightly more than 50 acupoints.

Ye Xuan had opened more than 70 of them. It could be said that he himself was a huge container. As the saying went, “The sea contains all rivers, and the greatness contains everything”. Others were like streams and a rivers, but Ye Xuan had the entire ocean. They were on completely different levels.

It was enough to crush all the heroes, and the starting line was many times stronger than others. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was standing at the top and look down on all living beings.

This meant that he could accommodate any power and physique. In the future cultivation path, he could be said to be the kind that could draw inferences and understand everything with one point.

He could be said to be a genius among geniuses, an extremely abnormal talent.

For a moment, Ye Xuan didn’t know whether this was good or bad. The key was that he didn’t even have spiritual energy, so it was useless even though he had opened up so many acupoints.

Ye Xuan seemed to have thought of something and squeezed out a sentence from his mouth through gritted teeth, “If I’m not wrong, every time I level up, the spiritual energy in these acupuncture points should also be filled up.”

“There are so many acupuncture points. How long will it take if I were to fill all of them up with spiritual energy?”

“Then I’ll have to stay in level 2 of Human Realm for the rest of my life!”

“System, come out! I promise that I won’t hit you!”

After Ye Xuan’s repeated greetings, the system, which had played dead and gone offline, finally appeared.

[This is your good fortune! Many people have tried their best and even risked their lives to open up these acupuncture points. Now that you’ve opened up so many in one go, it’s something that others can’t even ask for. You should be secretly happy.]

“If I pass the fortune to you, do you want it?”

Ye Xuan took a deep breath and barely managed to calm down. He originally thought that he would be able to get a supreme-grade Celestial spirit root after the meridian and marrow cleansing. But in the end, even the original useless spirit root was gone. Ye Xuan cursed.

“Then tell me, where can I get the spiritual energy needed for so many acupuncture points?!”

[The system store is at your service!]

“You can use your prodigal points to exchange for items in the mall. You can also use your prodigal points to increase your level.”

Ye Xuan laughed coldly. So the trick was here. He knew that there was no such good thing in the world.

[Random mission: Consume 100000 night-luminescent pearls (rare treasure, night-luminescent Pearl, contains a large amount of spiritual energy)

[Mission success reward: 500 prodigal points. Mission failure: Randomly deduct prodigal points. Mission time limit: 3 days]

[Do you want to accept the mission?]

Did he still have a choice? If he didn’t want to stay at the level 2 Human Realm for the rest of his life, he had to earn a lot of money.

“Yes,” Ye Xuan said without hesitation, “I accept.”

It really was the black-hearted system!

Ye Xuan put on the jade pendant that concealed his aura and quietly returned to the inn. However, not long after he left, a group of people came up behind him.

Even though he had already walked far away, the powerful aura he left behind had not dissipated. It was as if a peerless expert was meditating and cultivating here. Everyone could not help but be shocked.

“What kind of person is he? Just his aura alone is enough to make us fear. I wonder who the real person is.”

“Fortunately, he has already left. If he had seen us intruding, he would definitely be furious.”

At this moment, everyone couldn’t help but feel lucky that the expert had already gone far away.

“There’s actually such a person in Qingcheng, and we didn’t even notice him before. It seems like he’s hiding his aura. We have to be careful. We can’t be too brash in case we offend others.”

If these people knew that the master that they feared of and respected was only a level 2 Human Realm cultivator, what would they think?
