Chapter 459 - Advance into the Heavenly Passage Realm

The dan meridian point.

It was the easiest of the nine meridian points to activate. It was located at the dantian, which used to be the core of the Qi. The other meridian points were never used before, so this one was simple.

To activate it, one would need a lot of Heavenly Passage Pills to supplement the Qi. One would then need to reinforce it before letting the Qi condense and form the core. Only then would the meridian point be completed.

Long Chen had both the Heavenly Passage Pills and Qi to do so now. Soon, he took out fifty Heavenly Passage Pills from the Primordial Realm and consumed thirty of them. The Heavenly Passage Pills quickly became a white torrent that swept past his veins. Under his control, the white torrent fused with his Qi.

His Qi was now glowing white like milk. Once it was completely fused, Long Chen ate the remaining twenty. He needed more than thirty because his Qi was special.

But fifty Heavenly Passage Pills weren’t enough either.

Thankfully, I took Jiang Cheng’s Heavenly Passage Pills, or this wouldn’t have worked. Long Chen kept consuming Heavenly Passage Pills until he ate three hundred of them. Only then did his Qi start to change a little and could start carving out the first meridian point.

A regular person would’ve needed only thirty, but I need three hundred. If this goes on, I will need a ridiculous amount to reach the Ninth Passage Stage. Long Chen did a rough calculation and estimated that he would need millions of them.

I never needed to worry about Heavenly River Pills when I was at the Heavenly River Stage since I somehow always managed to get a lot, but now it’s different since I came here empty-handed. Looks like I need to work hard to get more Heavenly Passage Pills, or I will fall behind even if I use Blood Transmutation!

Just then, he started carving out the first meridian point with his transformed Qi. The Qi from his eighteen starry rivers also surged towards his dantian.

Qi was usually violent, but with the mellow strength of the Heavenly Passage Pills wrapping around it, he could control all eighteen branches of Qi from his eighteen starry rivers.

Everything was ready, and Long Chen was preparing to advance to the next stage using his own Qi rather than Blood Transmutation, so it was much simpler than he had thought.

The eighteen branches of Qi flowed into his dantian. Rather than destroying it, they circulated and formed a small, white whirlpool.

Long Chen felt like his dantian was about to burst.

It’s never simple!

He endured it while making sure the Qi didn’t harm his dantian. Time slowly passed, and a small, white core formed above the whirlpool. The core was as pretty as a gemstone.

Long Chen pondered as he familiarized himself with his new body.

“Why are you so easily satisfied? You’re that happy when you’ve merely reached the Heavenly Passage Realm. I really can’t help but laugh at you.” The cat scoffed at Long Chen from the Primordial Realm.

“You still can’t beat me,” Long Chen retorted.

“What?! You brat! If I hadn’t used all my power reviving everyone at Baiyang Town, I would’ve destroyed the Divine Martial Empire with just a single sneeze.”

“What a joke.”

The fat cat remained silent.

Just then, Long Chen felt Xiaolang stirring in the Primordial Realm. Xiaolang’s body was burning with a black flame, making him look like he was resurrecting from the ashes. His body was also changing—he had shrunk from three to two meters tall. Even so, his body was now much more compact and denser.

Once the fire was gone, a horrible presence radiated off Xiaolang. It was the presence of a Heaven-tier demonic beast, and he was also emitting an incredible heat.

He opened his eyes, and two golden lights shot out of the Primordial Realm and lit up the small cave.

“What the?!” Long Chen was shocked to see that Xiaolang’s eyes had turned golden. Black flames burned in them like black suns in the skies. Long Chen closed his eyes because merely looking at them was painful.

When he opened them again, the golden light had disappeared and Xiaolang came out of the Primordial Realm. His eyes were still golden and the black flames were still lit; even his limbs were on fire. His eyes and the marking of the sun formed a triangle on his face.

“Big Brother, I think I’ve become stronger, and I think I got a new talent ...” Xiaolang’s voice was hoarse.

“Which is?”

“Blazing Lions can control flames. Their mastery over flames can be used in many ways, even increasing the strength of their fire by three times. It’s an incredible talent!”

“So what does that have to do with you?” Long Chen wasn’t sure why Xiaolang was explaining this.

“I have obtained that talent.”
