Inside the cave.
Ling Xiao sat cross-legged.
In his left hand was a golden lotus, and in his right hand was a pitch-black ball of light. They looked very mysterious.
These were the Chaos Golden Lotus Fire and Xuanyuan Heavy Water.
These two supreme-grade Five Elements Spiritual Seeds were extremely precious. They were fire-attribute and water-attribute treasures.
The first step of the Heaven Devouring Secret Skill was to condense the Heaven Devouring Spiritual Seed. It could be seen how difficult it was to cultivate the Heaven Devouring Secret Skill.
Ling Xiao was preparing to use the Chaos Golden Lotus Fire and Xuanyuan Heavy Water to condense the semi-finished Heaven Devouring Spiritual Seed.
"Primal Chaos Chicken, shapeless, boundless, devouring as the master, one point on the spiritual altar, the spirit fuses with the firmament …"
In Ling Xiao's heart, the profound meaning of the Heaven Devouring Secret Skill slowly emerged.
The Heaven Devouring Secret Skill was the secret that allowed him to dominate the world in his previous life. It was also his hope to return to the peak in this life.
Ling Xiao believed that whether it was ten thousand years ago or now, the name of the Heaven Devouring Supreme would still resound in this world!
As Ling Xiao circulated the profound meaning of the Heaven Devouring Secret Skill, his body became blurry. The surrounding void seemed to ripple, and traces of chaotic fog spread out, making him look even more mysterious.
Boom!
The Chaos Golden Lotus Fire and Xuanyuan Heavy Water in his left and right hands shone brightly at this moment. Then, as if they were extremely intelligent, they merged into his arms and moved along his meridians toward his dantian.
An extremely hot and cold aura suddenly erupted, wreaking havoc in Ling Xiao's meridians. Waves of intense pain surged, causing Ling Xiao to groan. His face instantly became extremely pale.
Water and fire were incompatible. Even a Master Realm or Heaven Realm expert would not dare to casually merge the two opposing spiritual energies, let alone Ling Xiao who was only in the Channel Opening Realm.
Therefore, his weak meridians were instantly torn apart.
The pain of the meridians being torn apart, and the extreme heat and extreme cold intertwined, almost tearing Ling Xiao's soul apart. However, Ling Xiao's expression was incomparably calm as he concentrated on circulating the Heaven Devouring Secret Skill.
A spiritual light lit up his heart.
His meridians were torn apart, but a milky white light spread out in Ling Xiao's body, repairing the damaged meridians.
Just like that, the Mixed Yuan Golden Lotus Fire and Xuanyuan Heavy Water gradually gathered in Ling Xiao's Dantian, turning his body half gold and half black. It was very strange.
Seeing that the Chaotic Golden Lotus Flame and the Mysterious Origin Heavy Water had already entered his Dantian, Ling Xiao's gaze turned solemn.
"The success or failure of the Heaven Devouring Spirit Seed lies in this moment!"
Ling Xiao took a deep breath as a crazed look appeared on his face. Then, the Mixed Yuan Golden Lotus Fire and Xuanyuan Heavy Water collided violently.
Rumble!
It was as if a small sun had exploded, and as dazzling as a meteor. Words could not describe the brilliance of that moment.
In Ling Xiao's Dantian, the Mixed Yuan Golden Lotus Flame and Xuanyuan Heavy Water collided. Then, boundless energy suddenly gushed out. It was violent and blazing as it surged towards Ling Xiao's limbs and bones.
"All meridians, break open for me!"
Ling Xiao shouted in his heart. Under the impact of this violent energy, the meridians in his body instantly broke apart. However, the strange energy from the Heaven Devouring Secret Technique quickly mended his meridians. Just like this, a meridian was instantly opened up.
37th meridian!
38th meridian!
…
50th meridian!
…
81st meridian!
…
All the meridians in Ling Xiao's body were torn apart by this violent energy. After being broken, they were reconstructed. After being broken, the meridians that were connected became even stronger, and even emitted a jade-like luster.
108th meridian!
…
130th meridian!
…
199th meridian!
Just like that, the violent energy directly opened up nearly two hundred meridians in Ling Xiao's body before it slowly began to weaken.
"This is not enough. I want all your meridians open!
Heaven and earth are boundless, devouring is the master. Devour! "
Ling Xiao gritted his teeth. A large amount of high-grade spirit stones flew out from the ancient painting on his body and buried him like a small mountain.
Then, a powerful devouring force emerged from his Dantian like a whirlpool. The majestic spiritual energy from the spirit stones also surged towards Ling Xiao's body.
Puff!
Blood spurted out. Ling Xiao's meridians were torn apart and his body was severely injured. However, he still persevered. This was a rare opportunity. If he wanted to break through to the Great Circle of the Channel Opening Stage, which was extremely rare in ancient times, he needed to have extraordinary perseverance and luck.
He already had enough luck. Now, it was up to Ling Xiao to persevere.
Rumble!
Within Ling Xiao's body, there seemed to be a sudden explosion of thunder. The sound of a dragon's roar reverberated. Every meridian was like a huge dragon, torn apart and repaired.
201 meridians!
202 meridians!
280 meridians!
300 meridians!
… 336 meridians!
… 359 meridians!
360 meridians!
When the last meridian was opened, tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones, as well as the Chaotic Golden Lotus Fire and Mysterious Origin Heavy Water, all disappeared without a trace.
In Ling Xiao's Dantian, a spirit seed with red and black intertwined slowly rotated. The surrounding spiritual energy was like the center of a galaxy, mysterious and unfathomable.
This was the Heaven Devouring Spirit Seed!
Shua!
Ling Xiao opened his eyes. Two rays of light, one black and one red, shot out from his eyes, causing electricity to appear in the air. It was very strange.
At this moment, Ling Xiao was covered in blood. His entire body was covered in filthy blood, but a powerful and unparalleled strength filled his entire body!
The strength in his meridians was like a great river. His body was incomparably sturdy. Ling Xiao's current strength was more than ten times stronger than before.
Furthermore, Ling Xiao felt that as long as he willed it, he could immediately open up a Qi Sea in his Dantian, cultivate Xiantian True Qi, and enter the realm of True Qi!
However, Ling Xiao temporarily resisted this temptation. After all, the Mysterious Mother Pellet had not been refined. His goal was to perfect the Qi Sea. Naturally, he could not easily break through.
"I can be considered to be in the tenth layer of the Meridian Opening Stage, right?
I wonder what level my battle strength has reached? "
Ling Xiao thought in his heart.
He left the cave and washed the filthy blood off his body in the stream outside. His skin was sparkling and translucent like jade, just like a baby's.
At this moment, all the meridians in Ling Xiao's body were opened, and his pores were all open. As he breathed in and out, the surrounding spiritual energy surged towards him like a storm.
Ling Xiao's figure moved, and in an instant, he arrived in front of a huge green rock that was several people's height. Then, his arms suddenly exerted strength, and this green rock that weighed tens of thousands of jin was lifted up by him.
"The strength of my physical body has already reached about 30,000 jin. It has increased by more than ten times compared to before. Normally, only Dragon Tiger Realm experts can reach such a powerful strength!"
