"The twelve meridians are divided into the Hand Extreme Yin Meridian, Hand Extreme Yang Meridian, Foot Extreme Yin Meridian, and Foot Three Yin Meridian, which correspond to a martial artist's hands and feet.
Once the meridians are connected, the strength of the corresponding hands and feet will increase greatly.
For example, if the three meridians of the Hand Extreme Yin Meridian are connected, then the strength of my left hand will increase greatly. When the inner strength surges in, it won't consume too much energy and I will be able to fully display the might of the inner strength.
The same goes for the Foot Extreme Yin Meridian.
If all twelve meridians are connected, then both hands and feet will be able to display great power. I can even use my hands to block a martial artist's weapon. Some palm techniques and fist techniques will be able to display great effects. "
In Ziyue's mind, some descriptions of third-rate experts appeared. If he wanted to correspond, he could easily sense the difference between a third-rate expert and an ordinary inner strength practitioner.
"I originally thought that the amount of soul energy I have is enough to raise my martial arts to the second-rate level. But now it seems that I am still far from it.
However, sixty thousand soul energy is enough for me to open six meridians. My strength will also undergo an earth-shattering change, which is not bad.
But which meridian should I choose to upgrade? "
Looking at his remaining soul energy, Ziyue couldn't help but ponder.
"In terms of martial arts, all my strength lies in my hands. Whether it is the Tyrannical Blade Art or the Heaven Binding Hands, they all rely on my hands to display their might.
Naturally, I should upgrade the meridians in my hands to be able to display greater might. "
Soon, Ziyue made his decision.
"Consume ten thousand soul energy to open the Hand Extreme Yin Meridian of the Twelve Standard Meridians of the Purple Mansion Creation Art."
"Consume ten thousand soul energy to open the Hand Extreme Yin Pericardium Meridian of the Twelve Standard Meridians of the Purple Mansion Creation Art."
"Consume ten thousand soul energy to open the Hand Minor Yin Meridian of the Twelve Standard Meridians of the Purple Mansion Creation Art."
"Upgrade!"
"Upgrade!"
"Upgrade!"
"Consume thirty thousand soul energy to open three meridians of the Hand Extreme Yang Meridian of the Twelve Standard Meridians of the Purple Mansion Creation Art."
"Upgrade!"
Ziyue's expression didn't change as he instantly chose to upgrade the six meridians of the Hand Extreme Yin Meridian and Hand Extreme Yang Meridian.
"Weng!
Weng!
Weng!
The internal energy in Ziyue's body became turbulent in an instant. Like a sharp sword, it quickly rushed into the corresponding meridians. In the blink of an eye, these meridians were all broken.
After that, as if it had undergone countless revolutions, it caused these newly opened Qi Paths to rapidly expand, becoming wide and tough like a solid road. No matter how much Inner Qi surged, it was unable to break through.
Following the expansion of his meridians, Ziyue's inner strength also grew rapidly. It flowed through his meridians like a torrential river, recklessly tumbling.
"The Hand Taiyin Sutra and the Hand Taiyang Sutra have been connected and strengthened, allowing my hands … to become at least twice as strong as before.
You should know that my original strength wasn't weak, and … "
Ziyue could not help but stretch out both of his hands. With a thought, a surge of internal energy quickly rushed out.
Chi!
Chi!
A faint purple internal force rushed out, as sharp as a sword. It was at least an inch away from his body before gradually dissipating.
"Is this the internal force cultivated by the Violet Kingdom Creation Art?
In comparison, it is indeed much stronger than the internal force cultivated by normal mental cultivation methods. "
Ziyue had once felt the internal force of Liu Dong and Nie Yunhao. Comparing the two, he could clearly feel that his internal force was far more condensed than theirs.
Moreover, the internal force cultivated by the Violet Kingdom Creation Art had a certain recovery effect. Even if he was injured, he could recover to a certain extent through the Violet Kingdom internal force.
Even the recovery speed of his internal force was much faster than normal mental cultivation methods. No wonder it was called a top internal force mental cultivation method.
Only now did Ziyue look at his status panel.

"I only have a little more than a hundred points of spiritual power left. It seems that I need to replenish it as soon as possible.
However, at the same time, I have finally become a true third-rate expert. Even my meridians have been connected through six of them.
My strength has greatly improved, and I have completely surpassed the white-clothed swordsman, Chen Qingyun. "
Ziyue still remembered the words spoken at the bow of the ship when he first stepped into Wujiang County.
A son like Chen Qingyun!
Although he did not care too much about this kind of praise, he could not help but set Chen Qingyun as one of his goals.
A goal that he wanted to surpass.
Now, it had not even been a month since he stepped into Wujiang County, and he had already stepped into the ranks of third-rate experts. In terms of true strength, he had surpassed Chen Qingyun, who had just become a third-rate expert and had opened one or two meridians.
This kind of feeling made him feel a little excited.
"Not only have I surpassed Chen Qingyun, but with my martial arts realm and the perfection of the Tyrant Blade Technique, I am not far from being invincible among third-rate experts.
Even if I face a true second-rate expert, I will be able to put up a fight. "
Ziyue could not help but reveal a trace of confidence in his eyes.
…
The next day, Ziyue was dressed in martial attire. He held the scabbard in his hand and the beast skin pouch he had obtained from Elder Wudao at his waist as he walked out.
This time, he was going to participate in the Immortal Technique Assembly in Wujiang County organized by the old rogue cultivator, Old Wu.
He had been preparing for this for a long time.
Therefore, although he looked calm on the surface, he could not help but feel excited and nervous in his heart.
After leaving the room, Ziyue walked straight, crossed two streets, and then stood in a small pavilion.
After a while, he saw a figure walking over in a leisurely manner from afar.
This figure was dressed in a black robe. There were two grizzled whiskers above his mouth, but his face was rosy. It was the old scholar's cheap senior brother, Xie Gu Cang.
"Thank you, senior!"
Ziyue hurriedly greeted him.
"Mm, let's go. This assembly has been arranged at Golden Accord."
Xie Gu Cang nodded slightly and walked forward first.
Golden Accord!
It was one of the four major trading companies in Wujiang County. It was extremely famous in the entire Wujiang County. Not only was it located on the most prosperous street in the entire Wujiang County, but it also occupied a very large area and had a wide variety of businesses. It spanned a full hundred meters and was within the scope of Golden Accord.
There was an exquisite and huge signboard, decorated in gold and jade. As soon as they stepped inside, a unique fragrance assailed their nostrils, making them feel refreshed.
"Tranquility Incense?"
Ziyue probingly asked Xie Gu Cang.
"It's not a true Tranquility Incense. It only has the characteristics of a Magic Incense. It's relatively simple to make and the price is not expensive.
This can be considered a small business of my General Temple. Without this, the General Temple would have collapsed long ago. "
Xie Gu Cang faintly said. His figure turned and he directly stepped onto the second floor.
Ziyue knew in his heart that the General Temple's business was not as simple as he said.
Not to mention the vast Golden Accord, just the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, one of the three major restaurants, also used a strange fragrance that had the characteristics of a Magic Incense.
Just the supply of these two restaurants was enough to make the General Temple very comfortable.
Not to mention the real big part, there were many Magic Incense with strange effects such as Tranquility Incense and Spirit Gathering Incense.
"However, it seems that the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion and Golden Accord are inextricably linked to people who cultivate the Immortal Method."
Ziyue silently thought as he followed Xie Gu Cang to the second floor.
The second floor was also part of the Golden Accord's shop area. However, what they sold were all expensive items. Most of them were gold ornaments, jade, agate and so on. Those who could stroll around here were all people with quite a bit of status.
Without stopping on the second floor, Ziyue followed Xie Gu Cang and quickly arrived at the stairs leading to the third floor.
However, there were two people with solemn faces guarding here. They had an appearance that prevented strangers from entering.
Beside the two guards, there was an old man who looked like a housekeeper.
Seeing Xie Gu Cang, the housekeeper quickly walked two steps forward and greeted, "Master Xie Gu Cang, you've arrived. The master and the other Immortal masters have already arrived. They're currently drinking tea upstairs. My master usually treasures the Kumquat Spirit Leaf Tea a lot. Today, he even took it out to entertain you."
"Oh?
Old Man Zhou is usually very stingy. Today, he's actually willing to take out this Spirit Leaf Tea to entertain you. Then, I must properly taste it. "
Xie Gu Cang's eyes lit up. He smiled and nodded as he spoke.
"That's right. Has Lord Li arrived?"
Immediately after, Xie Gu Cang casually asked.
Ziyue's heart moved. He knew that Xie Gu Cang was asking for him. He couldn't help but feel a trace of gratitude in his heart.
Lee Hoon was the key for him to exchange for the second half of the Purple Qi Visualization Technique.
"He's here. He arrived early this morning."
The housekeeper hurriedly replied. However, his gaze calmly sized up Ziyue.
Seeing his martial artist attire, his eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of doubt. However, since it was related to an Immortal master, he didn't dare to ask.
Ziyue let out a long sigh of relief. He nodded to the housekeeper and said, "Thank you!"
However, it was unknown who he was thanking. The housekeeper could only nod in response.
After going up to the third floor, a tall and beautiful maid in purple clothes quickly brought them to a spacious room.
As far as the eye could see, there were seven or eight people in twos and threes. Each of them was sitting on a chair and carefully tasting tea.
Among them, Lee Hoon and Li Jubo, whom Ziyue had met once before, were impressively among them.
