Obtaining Sacred Meridians
SWOOSH!
A strong gale blew through the solemn surroundings. Xiao Ming had long been in a lotus position and Master Huan only looked on in observation as if waiting for something.
"I believe I can take this down myself with a strong resolve. Uncle Xiao and Cousin Qing will truly be delighted if I did. Once I succeed, I'll rid the threat of Yuesha and the others. This will be for the good of all" Xiao Ming thought briefly and a glint of resolve flicked through his cold radiant eyes.
SWOOSH!
SIZZLE!
THUD!
The wind wrecked as Xiao Ming stilled his mind to its peak. Master Huan hurriedly conjured a humanoid from draconic sword qi. The humanoid was a diagram with all of the meridians shown. The figure flew on its volition towards Xiao Ming.
SWOOSH!
BOOM!
At Xiao Ming's first attempt, a powerful rebound from nature struck. He released a muffled groan from his mangled lips. His expression turned grave as he felt that this wasn't going to be easy. However, he wasn't bothered and felt even more invigorated. He loved suicidal tasks such as this and his blood was boiling for this. He continued withstanding these rebounds witg a ferocious smile until...
PHESSH!
ZZZ!
Before long, a strand of spiritual qi forced Its way in. Without hesitating, Xiao Ming hurriedly recited a powerful mantra that Bai Yunxiao had taught him before. The Sole Tiger Mantra induced a circulation inside of his body. Suddenly, he lunged with his mouth open towards the vast space. This was utilizing the Barbaric Tiger Grasp he had just learnt a few months back.
Within a minute, a ball of grey spinning qi appeared on Xiao Ming's palm. In no less than a moment, the ball exploded into streams of gas that was inhaled by Xiao Ming. After devouring this qi, it became violent within his body.
Xiao Ming did not behave recklessly as he gritted his teeth in pain. He forged on as he bore more of the heart searing pain. Within his consciousness, the humanoid with hundred sacred meridians appeared. Scouting with his mind's eye, he gazed calmly at the figure and digested the information within the diagram.
SWOOSH!
After memorizing the diagram, the illusory humanoid disappeared from his consciousness. Immediately, a more solid one appeared with a facial appearance similar to Xiao Ming.
"Phew! Now I begin" Xiao Ming thought loudly. He directed a strand of spiritual qi towards the first meridian seal.
BANG!
The loose struck fruitlessly against the seal before it dispersed from losing its momentum. He struck again in the same manner twice in succession. On the fourth strike, the meridian seal shattered a gust of energy penetrated and charged in unhindered. But it slowly leaked out. Xiao Ming had yet to possess a Spirit Qi sea and could only contain smaller amount of energy.
Strangely, the process turned out successful and he faced little to no hindrances contrary to his expectation. Before long, he arrived at the thirty fourth meridian. A gale of qi shattered the thirty fourth seal. The thirty fifth seal too crumbled due to the might of the energy. As the thirty sixth seal was about to break, the solemn look on Xiao Ming grew as he slowly thought out a plan with great care.
"Looking at this, I wonder if I'll really be limited here or perhaps I'm truly going to obtain the Perfected Godly Meridians. To truly reach the peak, I would never be suppressed by anyone in any way...Perfected Godly Meridian, here I come" Xiao Ming declared with brimming confidence. He shut his eyes decisively and hid the light of resolve within.
