Chapter 82 The Enlightenment Fruit Has Miraculous Effects! Both Acupoints Open Simultaneously!
The training room.
The door closed gently, shutting out the footsteps in the corridor.
Su Chen sat cross-legged on the cultivation mat.
The small spirit-gathering array in the corner emitted a faint hum, and a faint spiritual energy fluctuation permeated the air, like an invisible mist.
Neither the Meridian Opening Realm nor the Acupoint Opening Realm can actively absorb spiritual energy.
The true ability to absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth actually requires waiting until the fifth realm—the Spirit Martial Realm!
but...
Increasing the concentration of spiritual energy in the air is not entirely without benefit to early-stage cultivation.
Although those at the Opening Acupoints Realm cannot actively absorb energy, they still draw upon the spiritual energy in the air when activating martial arts techniques, as the spiritual energy within their bodies circulates and with each breath.
Su Chen took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
[Mountain-Splitting Fist Experience Points +1]
【Mountain-Splitting Fist Iv1 (382/1000)】
He stared at the numbers on the panel, his brows furrowing slightly.
Based on current experience, the Overlord Body Technique can indeed affect the Mountain Opening Fist and the Bright Strength Technique.
However, the impact was too limited.
The Overlord Body Technique increases experience by 100 points, the Mountain-Opening Fist only increases it by 10 to 20 points, and the Bright Strength Technique only increases it by 3 to 5 points.
The effect is not as good as practicing the Mountain-Opening Fist to improve the other two skills.
"If I hadn't tested it and discovered that loading Zhang Yan's Iv6 Invincible Body Technique resulted in three times the experience gain speed compared to loading Iv4 Mountain-Splitting Fist!"
"Otherwise, I'll go practice the Mountain-Splitting Fist."
"It's a pity Zhang Yan isn't a Level 6 Opening Mountain Fist user!!"
Su Chen adjusted his breathing and suppressed his distracting thoughts.
The experience points for the Overlord Body Technique have been overflowing for a full three hours.
For the past three hours, he had been loading the Iv6 Overlord Technique, but the experience bar remained stuck at full value, showing no signs of breaking through.
"If I can't break through the Overlord Body Technique even after opening my acupoints tonight, then I'll really have no choice but to practice the Mountain-Splitting Fist!"
Su Chen adjusted his breathing again, allowing himself to calm down completely.
His sense of urgency to improve his strength was stronger than ever before.
Beast Taming Shop.
These four words have been churning in his mind ever since they were slammed into his head during the class meeting.
The Beast Taming Mall and his Pet Space are a perfect match!
Once he leaves school, where will he get beasts with lord-level or even king-level bloodlines?
Our family's financial situation cannot support this level of expense for the time being.
A beast with lord-level bloodline can easily fetch tens of millions of dollars on the market, while a king-level beast starts at hundreds of millions. Although the Su family is not poor, they are far from reaching that level.
Although the family has assets worth several hundred million, in reality, the pig farming industry only accounts for about 5% to 8% of their revenue.
Furthermore, pork will not be a mainstream food after the apocalypse.
So the family's annual net profit is only 30 to 40 million, and in good circumstances it can exceed 50 million.
This amount of money seems like a lot, but it's not enough for a genius martial artist to squander.
A single spirit fruit with extraordinary effects can fetch hundreds of thousands. Mythical spirit fruits, like those obtained by Zhang Yan and others, can easily cost millions.
No amount of hard work can compare to the speed at which a genius martial artist can make money.
Moreover... with the new college entrance examination regulations now in effect, the price of top-tier beast taming equipment on the market is bound to skyrocket!
Major base cities will also control the supply of goods, so you can't buy them even if you want to.
The Beast Taming Shop offers all students an opportunity!
"Although we already have two strong competitors in our team, Xi Yue and Wang Yichuan... why can't I?"
Just like what he said to Zhang Yan at the guard post this afternoon: Why can't you be number one?
Su Chen was certainly not someone detached from reality; he was well aware of his current position.
"If we only consider beast-taming points, even if you're in the top five of your grade in a small exam, you'll only get a couple hundred points. That's about forty or fifty beast-taming points."
"And Jiang Yunxin was merely a regular in the top ten of her grade, never firmly holding onto that position..."
"In the short term, the only ways for them to widen the gap in Beast Taming Points are the weekly tests and the joint exam."
"What I need to catch up with now is the ranking!!"
The thought of rankings still made Su Chen feel powerless.
For a beast tamed with royal bloodline, one of the exchange conditions would almost certainly be: having once ranked first in the grade. This is a threshold that even a child could guess.
His highest ranking so far is 136th in this week's test.
There are more than 130 people between them and the top student in the grade!
The difficulty of advancing one rank is several times greater than before.
"But regardless of the exchange rate, I'll do my best! I'll push myself to the limit!"
With this thought in mind, Su Chen no longer hesitated and closed his eyes.
He has already taken three pills today: the Ice Skin Jade Bone Pill in the early morning, the Overlord Body Pill in the morning, and the Bone Shaping Pill in the afternoon.
The medicinal power of the three pills was not completely digested; some of it remained, slowly flowing through his meridians and bones.
Su Chen's consciousness sank into his body.
He continued loading Zhang Yan's Iv6 Overlord Technique.
A domineering sense of power rose from the dantian and spread along the meridians to the limbs and bones.
Unlike his reckless rampage when he first signed the contract this morning, the Overlord Body Technique had now completely adapted to his body's rhythm.
The spiritual energy was flowing through my meridians faster than before... The warmth first spread from the midline of my torso.
He sensed that the first acupoint had been activated: Jiuwei acupoint.
This acupoint, located below the xiphoid process of the sternum, is the first fulcrum of the first level of the Overlord Body Technique.
Then, his consciousness extended upwards along the xiphoid procession.
The first level of the Overlord Body Technique involves four acupoints: Jiuwei, Juque, Zhongwan, and Qihai.
These four acupoints are arranged in a straight line along the Ren meridian, forming the core framework of the first level of the Overlord Body Technique.
The activation of each acupoint will elevate the body-refining effect of the Overlord Body Technique to a new level!
Only after all four acupoints in the first level are activated can one truly be considered to have entered the realm of the Overlord Body Technique.
With the blessing of the IV6 Overlord Body Technique, Su Chen could clearly feel that two acupoints were simultaneously showing signs of loosening.
Juque acupoint: Located three finger-widths above Jiuwei acupoint, and six inches above the navel.
This acupoint governs the flow of the meridian between the chest and abdomen, and is the hub connecting the upper and lower body.
If you activate the Giant Sword first, the power coverage of the Overlord Body Technique will be more balanced, flowing smoothly from top to bottom, with power originating from the ground.
Qihai acupoint: Located one and a half inches below the navel. The gateway to the dantian, the starting point for all spiritual energy circulation! If you open Qihai first, the endurance of the Overlord Body Technique will be greatly improved, and the power output will no longer be interrupted.
Which one should we open first?
Su Chen did not rush to make a decision.
He continued to feel the flow of spiritual energy from the Overlord Body Technique.
After his body was under a certain load, he then applied the Iv4 Mountain-Opening Fist.
The spiritual energy of the Mountain-Opening Fist travels through three acupoints on the arm: Tianquan, Quze, and Quemen, running from the shoulder all the way to the wrist.
Then, Zhang Yan's other martial arts skills were loaded.
Different psionic curves were drawn within his body.
Su Chen could feel that his body had become like a fully drawn bow.
Every bowstring was stretched to its limit.
Every acupoint was throbbing slightly.
"Phew~"
Time passed by, second by second.
The timer in the corner ticked silently, from zero to one, and from one to two.
Su Chen remained motionless.
His consciousness was locked onto his torso.
The pulse at the Qihai acupoint was getting faster and faster, like a heart that was accelerating.
With each pulse, a surge of spiritual energy is drawn from the depths of the dantian, travels along the Ren meridian towards the Qihai acupoint, and then bounces back.
The loosening of the Juque acupoint makes it more stable.
It wasn't until...4 a.m.!
It's like attacking two cities at the same time.
At this point, Su Chen discovered a flaw and immediately made a choice!
Giant cave!
First open the Giant Gate, then open the Sea of Qi.
First connect the upper and lower body, then stabilize the dantian.
He instantly focused all his consciousness on the Juque acupoint.
All the medicinal power was mobilized here, and the three forces surged towards the Juque acupoint at the same time!
A sharp, stabbing pain exploded from between my chest and abdomen.
It wasn't a dull ache, but a sharp, piercing pain, like something tearing you apart from the inside.
This section of the Ren meridian was originally about 70% blocked by something, making the flow of spiritual energy bumpy and difficult.
But now, that blockage is being forcibly torn open.
Then...
"Buzz!"
A surge of scalding spiritual energy erupted from the Juque acupoint, like a sluice gate being opened, rushing into the Ren meridian and flowing down along the midline of the chest and abdomen, where it merged with the spiritual energy at the Jiuwei acupoint.
【Invincible Body Technique Iv2 (1/2000)】
It's a breakthrough!!!
Su Chen didn't have time to savor this joy.
Because the moment he broke through to Iv2 in the Overlord Body Technique, everything inside his body changed.
First, there's the power chain.
The simultaneous resonance of the Jiuwei and Juque acupoints more than doubled the range of the Overlord Body Technique's power.
His torso, waist, back, shoulders—every muscle was recalibrated in that instant.
Then there's experience points...
[Overlord Body Technique Experience Points +13]
[Overlord Body Technique Experience Points +22]
[Overlord Body Technique Experience Points +28]
[Overlord Body Technique Experience Points +16]
This was the first time Su Chen had ever seen someone add more than 1 point in a single instance.
In just one minute, it increased by seventy or eighty!
His heart suddenly raced.
The experience point cap for Iv2 is 2000 points. At this rate, it can be maxed out in half an hour!
But he didn't have time to calculate it in detail.
Because in the afterglow of this breakthrough, an extremely mysterious state descended.
It's not a sudden realization.
It's not a state of deep meditation either.
It's a more peculiar feeling, like consciousness being detached from the body.
Even with his eyes closed, he could clearly "see" the direction of every meridian in his body, the trajectory of spiritual energy flowing through the meridians, and the rhythmic opening and closing of every acupoint with each breath.
Time lost its measure at this moment.
Su Chen didn't know how much time had passed.
In this mysterious state, the experience points for the Mountain-Opening Fist began to jump rapidly.
With each breath, he could feel the three acupoints on his arm—Tianquan, Quze, and Quemen—resonating slightly in rhythm with the Overlord Body Technique.
But soon, that mysterious feeling began to fade.
Su Chen could feel his body slowly returning from that detached state.
The speed of psionic energy circulation is slowing down, and the clarity of perception in the meridians is decreasing.
A sense of emptiness welled up inside him.
Then he suddenly realized something.
Without any hesitation.
Su Chen's consciousness directly probed into the pet space and took out the Enlightenment Fruit, shaped like a small gourd, from the system backpack.
Enlightenment Fruit produced by the system!
He gave one to Lin Xiyue, and he still had two left.
This was the first time he had eaten it.
The fruit of enlightenment melts upon entering the mouth.
Instead of turning into juice, it transformed into an extremely light mist with a faint sweetness.
The mist slid down the throat and spread directly into the meridians.
Then, Su Chen's mind suddenly cleared.
The mysterious state that was just fading away was forcibly pulled back in that instant.
And it's deeper, clearer, and more transparent than before!
Time became blurred in Su Chen's perception.
From midnight to dawn, from dawn to daybreak, from daybreak to noon...
Su Chen did not open his eyes.
The spiritual essence of the Enlightenment Fruit continued to work within his body, prolonging that profound state by an unknown number of times.
Su Chen didn't know how many misaligned meridians he had repaired, nor how many spiritual energy flow paths he had optimized.
until...
"Buzz~!"
The third acupoint in the Overlord Body Technique is Qihai (CV6).
Located one and a half inches below the navel, it is the gateway to the dantian.
Immersed in the spiritual essence of the Enlightenment Fruit, and with the Ren Meridian already fully unblocked, this acupoint encountered almost no significant resistance.
When the spiritual energy surged over, the Qihai acupoint was like a door that had been waiting there, and it opened with a gentle push.
Immediately, my experience began to increase rapidly.
[Overlord Body Technique Experience Points +32]
[Overlord Body Technique Experience Points +38]
[Overlord Body Technique Experience Points +46]
Another brief period of explosive growth.
Then... everything quieted down.
That profound and mysterious feeling finally dissipated, like the last wisp of mist being blown away by the wind after dawn.
Su Chen's consciousness slowly returned from that detached state and sank back into his body.
"Phew~"
Open your eyes.
The first thing Su Chen felt was her heartbeat.
very fast!
My vision was a little blurry, and it took me two blinks to refocus.
Su Chen sat on the cultivation mat and took several deep breaths to try to calm his racing heart.
Then, he glanced at the clock on the wall.
16: 32.
He was stunned.
16:32?
He immediately took out his phone.
on Monday...
"A full 18 hours have passed... That's unbelievable!"
Within the body, the spiritual essence of the Enlightenment Fruit was still at work, but it no longer possessed that all-encompassing, mystical feeling; instead, it had transformed into a continuous, gentle clarity.
The medicinal power of those three pills has been completely exhausted.
Su Chen did not immediately take the new pill.
After eighteen hours of continuous medication, my body felt full, but I still needed to rest.
Not urgent!
He stood up, stretched, and his joints cracked and popped.
Then he stretched his limbs and couldn't help but look at the panels of his skills.
"This improvement far surpasses any previous cultivation session!"
"It even feels a bit like an immortal attaining enlightenment; I wish I could do it two or three more times!"
"I wonder how well my skills have improved..."
【Mountain-Splitting Fist Iv1 (382→753/1000)】
【明劲诀1v1（788→986/1000）】
I'm only 14 points away from reaching the maximum level!!
【Shadowless Step Lv3 (2485→2866/3000)】
Even this has risen by 381 points?!
The Shadowless Step was a skill that Wang Yichuan focused on practicing when he was loading the game; he didn't actively practice it last night.
However, in the "overlooking all" state of the Enlightenment Fruit, the leg meridians were optimized by a large margin, and the experience points of the Shadowless Step also increased accordingly.
【Invincible Body Technique Iv2 (1285/2000)】
"Wow! After leveling up, the experience bar is already more than half full. Normally, even for a power-type prodigy like Zhang Yan, it would take her at least half a month, maybe a month, to reach this level."
"At this cultivation speed of 40-50 minutes per hour, am I supposed to break through to Iv3 tomorrow???"
"Eight days of contract time, a promising future awaits!"
Su Chen let out a long breath.
"Phew!"
"The effects of this Enlightenment Fruit are truly amazing! It provides an all-around improvement."
He couldn't help but think that if he were given the task of Xiao Zi's intensified training, he would be the one to carry it out.
A mere 2500 experience points is nothing to worry about.
Then he remembered what happened last night.
As Wang Yichuan walked into the corridor of the cultivation room with him, he took out the Bone Shaping Pill from his pocket, intending to return it to him.
"Brother Chen, this thing is too valuable. A top-grade Bone-Shaping Pill, you definitely couldn't buy it for 150,000 on the market. If you give it to me, what will you do with yourself?"
Su Chen simply waved his hand. What's the point of taking back something you've given away?
He naturally refused!
Lin Xiyue also learned the true value of the Enlightenment Fruit in her hand from Wang Yichuan.
The market price is a whopping 300,000! And it's still hard to buy!
Lin Xiyue was at a loss, holding the Enlightenment Fruit in both hands as if it were a hot potato, and hurriedly tried to return it to him.
"That look was actually quite cute."
Su Chen recalled Lin Xiyue's hesitant expression and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up slightly.
It's different now.
Only after experiencing the effects of the Enlightenment Fruit firsthand did he truly understand the value of this spiritual fruit!
This effect cannot be measured in money.
"Tsk~ Now I'm more curious about how much Yuuki has improved during this time."
He leaned against the wall of the training room and tapped his arm lightly with his fingers.
"Let's see if Xiyue can really shock everyone else! And secure the first beast with lord bloodline."
Just then, my phone rang.
Upon opening it, I found it was a notification from the grade-level group chat.
[Notice from the Senior Three Grade Group of Jiangling No.1 High School:]

He clenched his powerful right fist.
"The exam schedule is really packed!!!"
"Then...do it hard!"
"Moreover, I feel that I can completely rely on improving my ranking, making significant progress, to ensure that my beast-taming points don't fall behind."
Su Chen's lips curled slightly: "Anyway, subjects like academic subjects and Spirit Pearl theory don't give many points. The most important subjects are those that test your hard skills!"
He sat back down on the meditation mat, but did not get up immediately to eat.
I still have a lot of energy, so I'll take advantage of this momentum to further solidify the operating route of the Overlord Body Technique Iv2!
More than speed, Su Chen suddenly looked forward to the endurance and strength tests...
"Both of these only have around three hundred students! After all, the competition among top students is quite fierce."
"If they all make the top 100..."
"Tsk tsk!"
