Without hesitation, Qin Chuan had the dragon cub protect him and swallowed the Purple Emperor Pill.
It transformed into a clear stream as it flowed down his throat. Almost instantly, a powerful aura erupted from his body, coursing through his limbs and meridians.
Qin Chuan's face flushed red. Such potent medicinal power! Qin Chuan realized he had perhaps underestimated the effects of the Purple Emperor Pill; it was fierce and domineering.
Qin Chuan's physical strength was undeniable. His Vast and Mighty Body, the Nine Divine Dragons, and the Hundred Dragons Divine Power Technique made his body even stronger than that of a magical beast.
Even so, he still felt immense pain. However, this pain was nothing to Qin Chuan; he had endured countless hardships along the way.
He possessed this resilience, allowing him to calmly absorb and refine the energy.
The Hundred Dragons Divine Power Technique circulated wildly. Qin Chuan had now broken through to the Twenty Dragons Realm, demonstrating the immense strength of his body—the power of twenty dragons.
After the Nine Dragons Divine Power Technique advanced to the Hundred Dragons Divine Power Technique, Qin Chuan broke through the Twenty Dragons Realm, which he had been unable to reach, while absorbing the medicinal power.
Boom!
Void Realm Sixth Level!
Not only did the Hundred Dragons Divine Power Technique break through, but the breakthrough also propelled Qin Chuan's realm to the Void Realm Sixth Level.
However, this didn't seem to be the main point. The medicinal power within his body was still surging, and the so-called opening of a mysterious meridian was still not complete, continuing to extend.
Before the mysterious meridian was opened, no one knew what kind of meridian it was, whether it was heaven-defying or just an ordinary one.
However, since it was called a mysterious meridian, it was rare for a meridian to be completely useless. Even if it was a meridian whose purpose was unknown, it didn't mean that the meridian was useless; it just meant that its purpose was unknown.
Calming his mind and spirit, Qin Chuan cast aside distracting thoughts and began to slowly refine the power that had entered his body. The dragon power enveloped the external power within his body, refining it and making it even purer.
Not only that, but a trace of black energy seemed to have appeared within the refined dragon energy. This energy was expelled from Qin Chuan's body through his pores, forming a layer of grime on his skin.
Hmm?
Qin Chuan discovered that those mysterious meridians were incredibly difficult to open; the progress was almost unimaginable. Would it be impossible to open them at this rate?
However, Qin Chuan quickly shook his head. A pill like the Purple Emperor Pill was designed to open a mysterious meridian, and it would definitely open one, no matter which one, no matter how difficult.
Therefore, to a certain extent, one should be happy about the difficulty, as it's an opportunity. Relatively speaking, the more difficult the meridian, the greater its power.
This is normal logic, and it is indeed true. Of course, nothing is absolute; there are always exceptions, but the probability is relatively small.
So, overall, Qin Chuan was happy, hoping that this time he would open a mysterious and powerful meridian, and no one would complain about his strength.
Mysterious meridians represent a hidden development of the body. Each person's body is like a universe; how much is developed depends on individual opportunities and is limitless.
This is talent, this is opportunity, this is why I say there's no second place in martial arts. As long as there's a battle, a winner will definitely be decided; it's impossible for two people to be exactly the same strength. In a
life-or-death battle, as long as the fight continues, a victor will surely be determined.
He didn't know how much time had passed, it felt like hundreds or thousands of years, but it also seemed like a fleeting moment, like taking a nap.
Hmm, the meridians are open!
That so-called mysterious meridian is open; it's a relatively large meridian.
You see, mysterious meridians aren't actually that large, but they don't need to be large. These meridians possess miraculous and mysterious abilities; opening one might benefit one for a lifetime.
Of course, the larger the mysterious meridian, the greater its abilities—that's the normal situation.
Now, Qin Chuan looked at this newly opened mysterious meridian. This wasn't the first mysterious meridian Qin Chuan had opened, but it was definitely the largest. A
powerful aura circulated within his body, as if summoning wind and rain, like a dragon swimming in the sea.
Qin Chuan's eyes lit up. So strong?
The feeling of power was incredible; it gave Qin Chuan an overwhelming sense of exhilaration. With a wave of his hand, he felt as if he could flatten a small mountain.
Seventh level of the Void Realm!
Qin Chuan smiled, overjoyed. He had already reached the seventh level of the Void Realm. Although it wasn't much in the eyes of those War God Realm experts, Qin Chuan was content.
One must take things one step at a time; there's no rushing. Moreover, reaching the seventh level of the Void Realm, combined with the twenty-dragon power level of the Hundred Dragon Divine Power Technique, made Qin Chuan feel more than twice as strong as before.
This growth greatly boosted Qin Chuan's confidence, and he even had the urge to try his luck against War God Realm experts. However, this thought remained just that—thoughts. The gap between the Void Realm and the War God Realm couldn't be bridged by geniuses.
However, Qin Chuan felt confident that he could escape from even the weakest War God Realm expert; if he couldn't win, he could run.
Three days had passed since he left his room. After a bath, a layer of grime had formed on his body. This time, he had actually experienced the effects of the Yi Jing Marrow Cleansing Technique once again.
This benefit is undeniable regardless of your cultivation level. The benefits of cleansing the body of impurities are immense, providing immeasurable advantages for solidifying your foundation and unlocking future potential.
The Great Wind Dynasty's capital!
Half a month later, Qin Chuan arrived at the Great Wind Dynasty's capital.
The towering city walls were no less than a hundred feet high, the magnificent architecture, the bustling crowds—a scene of unparalleled prosperity.
This dynasty was incomparable to those of the past. Now, he was searching for the Nine Heavens Mystic Goddess Palace, completely lost. He could only slowly climb upwards.
Once he reached that level, he would naturally find it. If he couldn't reach it, struggling would be useless; he wouldn't even notice if he passed right next to the Nine Heavens Mystic Goddess Palace.
Because his strength and the plane of existence were not yet reached—they were from two different worlds.
Sighing
helplessly, Qin Chuan missed Chu Shiqing and the others terribly. He longed to appear before them immediately and embrace them tightly.
This feeling of wanting to hug them but being unable to was painful; this yearning for them, this unseen suffering, was truly bitter.
That torment, this desire to die, this torment that drove him mad.
Trying to calm himself down, he thought, "We've come this far. Now that we're in the Nine Heavens, I can't rush things. The more I rush, the more careless I'll become. I need to proceed steadily; we'll meet again someday."
In the royal city, Qin Chuan didn't know anyone. He scratched
his head, wondering how to break through this situation. "Never mind," he thought, "I'll find a place to stay first and see how things go. No rush. My priority is cultivation and improving my strength."
He found the largest tavern, booked a room, and it was time to eat. He found a window seat in the lobby and ordered their signature dish.
