The healing pill that Li Ju gave to Ning Shen worked really fast. It was probably a pill that only those at the Deity realm could refine. In a matter of hours, all of Ning Shen's injuries had fully healed. Seeing this Ah Chun finally relaxed. She knew that out of the two of them Ning Shen had it the hardest. Her bloodline alone made dealing with the pressure easier.
"Alright! Since the lad is all safe and sound now let's get down to the inheritance." Li Ju said as he poured one last cup of wine and passed it to Ning Shen. "here drink this first warm you up! Haha!"
Ning Shen smiled as he accepted the cup of wine and downed it in one shot. "Alright now let's get down to business. My inheritance is something that only the two of you or those who have entered the true path of cultivation would find worth wild. To be honest I think only the two of you would have the guts to even complete my trial. Lad, there almost went to see King Yama many times during the trial. If it was not for his love for you little lass I am afraid he would have died a few hundred years ago"
Hearing this made Ah Chun's face turn black. She had no idea that Ning Shen had that much trouble. But she was also very happy that he was able to push through the whole trial. The benefits he gained from the tempering was worth the risk. Ah Chun reached out and grabbed Ning Shen's hand with her little hand. Ning Shen felt her hand on his causing the corner of his lips to turn upwards.
"Alright enough of your lovey-dovey crap. Save it for later. The first part of the inheritance is this." Li Ju pulled out a jade slip with the flip of his hands the jade slip split into then turned into streames of lights which then shot into between both Ning Shen's and Ah Chun's brow. "This is the method you will need to circulate your Spiritual Qi in order to start opening more meridians. I am going to help the two of you open your first meridian." Li Ju explained.
Ah Chun and Ning Shen's eyes both lit up at his words. To open up a new meridian not only would their cultivation be faster but their strength would grow as well. This was something that could be considered priceless. They watched as Li Ju pulled out two pills. He looked at them and sighed. "These two pills I got from a Primordial God hermit I met while traversing the Realm of Gods. It is a place the two of you should head once you reach the peak of the heavenly realm. It is just that the way to get to there only opens every ten thousand years. For now, the two of you have a long time before you can even reach that stage. Little lass once you open the first of the one hundred meridians you should break through to the fourth stage of Qi Universe. Once you do you can then break through to the immortal realm. You should do that in this space. After which you can attempt to refine this palace. The Dao Tree realm is just a gateway to building up law energy to break through to the Immortal realm. I can already sense that you have enough build-up of law energy in your body to make your breakthrough. Anyway enough chit chat! Take these pills and rotate the Spiritual Qi according to the information I just gave you. If you are lucky you may even open more than one meridian." After saying his words Li Ju tossed the pills over to Ah Chun and Ning Shen.
They both quickly sat crossed leg on the platform and then swallowed the pills. Once the pills entered their mouths it turned into a thick stream of Spiritual Qi that rushed straight to their dantian. Ah Chun and Ning Shen both quickly circulated their Spiritual Qi according to the method. But as they did they felt intense pain as if their meridians were being ripped out of their bodies!
"Haha! I forgot to tell you two the process for opening these meridians is extremely painful!" hearing this Ah Chun's gritted her teeth as she inwardly cursed at the damn old bastard! She decided to take back all the good things she said about him!
The pain the two were experiencing was hundreds of times worse than opening the first meridians. The Spiritual Qi was smashing through what seemed to be some kind of blockage. As they rotated it according to the special rotation. After a few days of continually smashing the blockage. Ah Chun was the first to break through it. Ah Chun felt that her intake of spiritual qi had increased by several-fold. But she did not stop there. With this new influx of spiritual energy entering her body, she used that in conjunction with what was left of the medical pill to strike at the next blockage! She gathered every ounce of spiritual qi in her body and threw it at the blockage. Surprisingly enough the second blockage actually unblocked opening up a second meridian!
At the same time that Ah Chun was opening her second meridian Ning Shen had successfully opened his first meridian. As he felt the surge of spiritual qi enter his body Ning Shen could not help but get excited. He could feel how much smoother it was to rotate his Spiritual Qi. Even his strength sky rose substantially. Seeing the happy look on Ning Shen's face brought a smile to Ah Chun's face. She knew Ning Shen was really disliking lagging behind her in cultivation. That was one of the reasons why she risked her life to steal the Star Lily from two immortals. All in hopes of helping Ning Shen boost his cultivation speed even by a little. She did not mind risking her life if it was worth it for either herself or Ning Shen.
