Su Que finished dinner and returned to his room.

He lit the oil lamp inside, and the dim light instantly filled the entire room.

He took a "Celestial Essence Pill" and sat cross-legged on the bed.

With a thought, he activated his True Qi, channeling it into the Chong Meridian, using True Qi to expand this meridian outward.

The "Chong" in Chong Meridian implies an important channel or pathway.

The Chong Meridian reaches the head above and the feet below, traversing the entire body, serving as the main conduit for the qi and blood of various meridians, with the function of regulating qi and blood throughout the body. Once the Chong Meridian is opened, the flow of qi and blood in the Twelve Main Meridians becomes smoother.

Tonight, he could completely open the Chong Meridian.

He had spent over a month opening this Chong Meridian.

However, due to his advancement in Inner Strength and the enhancement of his elixir absorption ability, the speed of opening the meridian significantly increased compared to before.

Su Que focused his mind, manipulating True Qi to expand this meridian outward.

Once expanded to a certain degree and solidified, the meridian is considered successfully opened.

Suddenly, a dull sound came from within Su Que's body.

Then, a whirring sound of the wind emanated from his body.

Just like a fierce wind blowing through a valley.

'It's done!'

Su Que thought to himself.

Finally, one of the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, the Chong Meridian, was opened by him.

Now he was a Thirteen Meridian Martial Artist in the Meridian Opening Realm.

After the Chong Meridian was opened, it changed from being narrow and small, the meridian became thick and wide.

True Qi and qi blood inside surged like a flood in a river, rapidly flowing.

Along with it, the True Qi and qi blood of the Twelve Main Meridians also flowed more swiftly.

Simply by opening one meridian, the body's networks flowed more smoothly.

Su Que felt his body becoming lighter, his muscles growing more powerful.

With a thought, he summoned his attributes.

Lifespan: 310

Talent Value: 60

'Lifespan increased by 10 years, Talent Value increased by 2 points!'

Su Que looked at his attributes, feeling joyful inside.

'I didn't expect opening the Eight Extraordinary Meridians to benefit the body so much.'

'If it continues like this, after opening all the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, the Talent Value can be increased again, accelerating the speed of martial arts cultivation!'

Thinking of this, Su Que calmed his mind and continued to circulate True Qi, preparing to open the next meridian.

This time, he intended to open the "Dai Meridian" among the Eight Extraordinary Meridians.

…

Seven Injuries Fist (8th Realm Peak of Perfection 19%)

Marriage Robe Divine Skill (7th Realm Divine Transformation 65%)

Lifespan: 331

Talent Value: 64

Several days later, Su Que felt the medicinal power of the elixir within reaching its limit, so he slowly ceased exercising his skill and glanced at his attributes.

During this period, his lifespan increased by a total of 21 years and his Talent Value increased by 4 points.

After modifying the Seven Injuries Fist, its harm to the cultivator significantly increased.

He had practiced for quite some time, and the Seven Injuries Fist still had a considerable adverse effect on him.

Upon reversing, it made the Five Viscera and Six Bowels more robust, the Yin Yang Qi more flourishing.

'In the future, if there's time, I should further consider how to modify the Seven Injuries Fist, making its harm even greater.'

After tasting the benefits of modification, Su Que thought thus.

However, he knew that even if his Talent Value was high, allowing him to deduce and alter cultivation techniques.

This must be established upon possessing specific knowledge and experience.

For instance, his deducing cultivation techniques was because he had practiced the initial realms of the technique, thus able to use the patterns of the early realms, along with his own cultivation experience, to deduce the techniques.

Take for example, his modification of the Seven Injuries Fist.

Mainly referencing the cultivation methods of "Sunflower Manual", "Withered Wood Divine Skill", "Red Fiend Technique", "Profound Yin Finger", "Yin Wind Claw", and "Minor Self-Damaging Skill".

He comprehended and summarized the aggressive, body-harming cultivation methods within, then integrated them into the Seven Injuries Fist cultivation methods.

'In the future, maybe I should find some evil techniques to read and learn the cultivation methods within.'

Suddenly recalling, Li Xuanji promised him access to the Li family's library to read secret manuals.

It's just that, Su Que has been busy cultivating recently.

Moreover, he hasn't encountered any bottlenecks yet, so he didn't think about it.

He plans to find Li Xuanji later when his cultivation progress slows down and see if there are any valuable references in the Li family's library.

Aside from the Seven Injuries Fist, the reverse effects of Marriage Robe Divine Skill, and the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons also increased his lifespan.

As the Marriage Robe Divine Skill enhanced, the True Qi it spawned became increasingly fierce, like thunder and fire.

If another martial artist cultivated this way, surely they would have been long buried.

But Su Que, due to the increasing adverbial effect, gained quite a bit of lifespan.

'I originally thought passing the 300-year lifespan mark would make it difficult to grow.'

'Unexpectedly, the Marriage Robe Divine Skill didn't disperse, forcefully cultivating it, resulted in such a significant adverbial effect.'

Su Que felt pleased, thinking it was worth going through effort to acquire this skill initially.

Meanwhile, his ability to absorb elixirs also improved.

Now, he can refine three "Celestial Essence Pills" a day.

Su Que got out of bed, from a pile of miscellaneous items in the corner, he pulled out an inconspicuous bundle.

After untying it, he took out a long-necked porcelain bottle, uncorked it, and poured a "Celestial Essence Pill" into his mouth.

After taking this "Celestial Essence Pill", he closed his right eye and looked into the mouth of the porcelain bottle.

Seeing there were only seven "Celestial Essence Pills" left inside.

'I need to go to Celestial Water City to refine pills again.'

He had consumed quite a lot of elixirs during this period.

Elder Qingxuan used three Alchemy Furnaces specifically to refine his "Celestial Essence Pills".

He typically visited Celestial Water City every nine or ten days to refine pills.

And each time he went to refine, Elder Qingxuan never asked him for money.
