Chapter 19 - Green Lotus City Lord

Ximen Wei is undergoing a crucial moment in his journey as a cultivator. He is opening his second Extraordinary Meridian, a process that transforms his physical body to reach higher levels of being. Despite facing intense pain, the strand of energy keeps him alive, pushing him to reach the next level. This process of body remolding is critical for cultivators, as a weak physique cannot support the formation of Extraordinary Meridians. Thus, the opening of the second meridian marks a significant step forward for Ximen Wei, a transformation that brings him closer to transcending his mortal limitations.

Rumble!

As Ximen Wei sat cross-legged, he couldn't help but feel an immense sense of power coursing through his veins. His body was filled with a newfound energy that he had never experienced before. With each passing moment, he felt himself growing stronger and more capable.

The six Extraordinary Meridians that had just appeared within him were like a surge of electricity that seemed to light up his entire being. He could feel the strands of energy pulsating within him, each one exuding its own unique power.

Ximen Wei's eyes glinted with a newfound sharpness as he gazed around the cell in which he was being held captive. He felt like he could easily bend the metal bars in front of him with just a flick of his wrist, but he chose not to do so. Instead, he sat in deep contemplation, trying to make sense of the strange events that had just transpired.

He wondered where the mysterious Scroll had come from, who had sent it to him, and what their motives could possibly be. He couldn't help but feel a sense of intrigue and suspicion, wondering who would be interested in his abilities and what they would want from him in return.

Despite the many questions that were running through his mind, Ximen Wei remained focused and calm. He knew that he was now officially a Level 1 Qi Trainee. His top priority right now, was to escape this horrendous place before something terrible happens to him.

Long Gen was in deep contemplation, his fingers caressing his neatly trimmed beard as he pondered over his decision to give Ximen Wei a hand. As he watched Ximen Wei open the scroll and activate the first Extraordinary Meridian, he breathed a sigh of relief. With every successful activation of Ximen Wei's Extraordinary Meridians, Long Gen's expression changed from relief to approval, and finally to a faint smile.

However, when Ximen Wei's Sixth Extraordinary Meridian was activated, Long Gen's expression took a sharp turn, shifting from a smile to one of pure shock and disbelief. This was an unprecedented feat, unlike anything that had ever been seen before. It was common knowledge that only eight Extraordinary Meridians could be opened during the initial stages of Qi Cultivation, and this included the first three levels of Qi Trainees and the first Rank.

What Ximen Wei had accomplished was truly astonishing, defying all odds and setting a new standard in the world of cultivation. Such a feat was only possible for the most talented and gifted Chosen and Dao Children of powerful entities. Long Gen was thoroughly impressed and amazed by Ximen Wei's incredible abilities.

Ximen Wei's ability to open six Extraordinary Meridians during his first level of Qi Trainee has set him apart from the rest. His potential is endless and his future prospects are shining bright. With such a remarkable feat accomplished with just a Qi Condensation Manual that isn't even at the Earth Rank, it's hard to imagine what he could achieve if he were to cultivate with a Heaven Rank manual. The possibilities are exciting and the outcome would be truly remarkable. An eight Extraordinary Meridian, which is considered a rare and exceptional feat, could very well be within his reach. And, who knows, even the legendary and mysterious Ninth Extraordinary Meridian may not be a far-fetched dream. The imagination runs wild with the thought of what Ximen Wei could achieve with such a powerful tool.

Long Gen's eyes sparkled with a fierce determination as he crouched down, ready to pounce. The adrenaline was pumping through his veins as he focused all his attention on the small figure below him. The opportunity to capture this young individual was one that he could not afford to miss. He could sense the potential of the child, the potential to become a valuable asset to the sect. With a fierce growl, he lunged forward, his arms outstretched and ready to seize the young one.

Ximen Wei's death at the hands of the Song family would be a catastrophic loss. But before Long Gen could get the boy, he was abruptly trapped. He quickly reacted, crushing a talisman to send a distress signal to his sect. With unwavering determination, he summoned all his power to break free from the lock.

In the distance, a tall figure emerged from one of the city's mansions. The figure exuded the suffocating pressure of a Rank 2 Qi Expert. He stood at almost 2 meters tall, with a stout face and dark hair, clad in a luxurious robe adorned with dragon drawings, exuding imperial majesty. The person was none other than the renowned Green Lotus City Lord, a powerful Rank 2 Wind Path Qi Expert.

The Green Lotus City Lord stood tall and imposing, exuding an aura of superiority and dominance. His voice boomed through the city, ringing with arrogance and confidence.

"I never thought the Illustrious Viper would be so bold as to show himself in public," he declared haughtily, as if challenging the infamous criminal to prove his worth.

The Green Lotus City Lord raised a hand, and with a flick of his wrist, a sea of intimidating energies emerged from the shadows, revealing the presence of countless Rank 1 Qi Experts. They had been hiding in the darkness, waiting for their chance to strike, their eyes fixed upon the Long Gen's with deadly intent.

The Green Lotus City Lord smiled, a sly smirk that conveyed his satisfaction with the situation. "Now that you're in our grasp, you won't be escaping anymore," he said with a sense of finality, as if the fate of the Long Gen's had already been sealed. The city was now surrounded by a web of potent Qi energy, ready to pounce upon their prey at the slightest movement.
