Extraordinary Meridians

The moment Ximen Wei grabbed the ancient looking scroll, something so unimaginable and undescribable happened that Ximen Wei never expected.

The dumby and cramped prison cell turned ethereal, turning into some sort of paradise that was emitting an otherworldly aura.

Mist and Qi seethed from the ground, giving a dreamy atmosphere to the surroundings, making this ethereal paradise even more mysterious and magical.

Far away, in the starry sky, there existed a Heavenly Blockade. It was a vast, mighty river that extended far away into the infinite cosmos, the river's majesty overshadowed Heaven and Earth, and the aura it was emitting was enough to shake the entire universe.

However, during this very moment, the grand Heavenly Blockade shook violently, and twelve Xianwu Turtles emerged out of the river's water, they looked off far into starry sky and let out nine consecutive cries.

At the same moment that the ninth cry rang out, Ximen Wei's body shook as rumbling echoed out inside his mind. A strand of violet energy emerged out from the scroll and shot to Ximen Wei at an indescribable speed.

The moment the strand of energy penetrated Ximen Wei's arm, his face turned pale and he coughed up a mouthful of black, putrid blood that emitted a nauseating smell.

His innards, the nine bowels and six viscrea, shook so violently to the level where blood started coming out of his mouth, nose, ears and even eyes.

The strand of mysterious energy wriggled his way inside of his skins, traversing through his entire body.

At this moment, Ximen Wei felt pain, an indescribable amount of pain. This pain was so unimaginable that words can not explain it, his body shook as foam started coming out of his mouth, he keeps falling in and out of comas.

His nervous system is overwhelmed, so his brain activated its' defense system and made him unconscious, however, the jolts of pain were so intense it overwhelmed him, making him conscious again.

This vicious cycle went on for the entire time an incense stick takes to burn, until finally, the illusory shape of an Extraordinary Meridian started appearing!

During the initial stages of Qi Cultivation, it is vital for cultivators to open as many as Extraordinaray Meridians as they can, since that determines their future prospects and how far they can travel in the path of cultivation.

If one opens more Extraordinary Meridians, then he won't face many bottlenecks as often as people who opened less Extraordinary Meridians, and naturally, he will be more powerful than his peers, so for many people, this matter is considered of utmost importance.

Finally, after a considerable amount of time passed, the first Extraordinary Meridian appeared inside Ximen Wei's body, relieving a bit of his pain. However, the strand of energy was not done. It did went in for another round, intending to open another Extraordinary Meridian!

Once again, Ximen Wei's face contracted as he tried to hold in the pain..

it is widely known that, the human body can only support Eight Extraordinary Meridians, that is its' limit. However, the only people who can actually open Eight Extraordinary Meridians in their bodies are Chosen of Prestigeous Sects or Dao Children of Great Families.

The regular cultivator can only open four or five Extraordinary Meridians and the talented ones can open six or even up to seven!

However, the Eight Extraordinary Meridian can not be opened by talent alone, it needs fortune, and incredible fortune at that! Without sufficient cultivation resources and an incredible foundation, then opening an Eight Extraordinary Meridian is a dream!

Currently, Ximen Wei is opening his second Extraordinary Meridian, although the pain he felt was not as incredible as before, it still exceeded what his limits, however, the strand of energy kept him alive.

As to the reason why Ximen Wei was feeling indescribable pain, that was because the strand of energy was remolding his body!

This is body remolding! The act of shedding one's mortal coil and stepping into a higher form of being!

This is basically transcendence! Without a sufficiently powerful body to support the formation of Extraordinary Meridians, then one can only dream about being a cultivator!

Rumble!

After what it seemed like forever, a second Extraordinary Meridian appeared, then a third, then a fourth! Until finally a sixth appeared!

Now, Ximen Wei could be considered a rare, talented cultivator within the cultivation world, with six Extraordinary Meridians, any sect would be willing to accept him in as a disciple!

The strand of energy grew faint, until it finally disappeared.

Terrifying undulations started coming off Ximen Wei's body as he felt the presence of his six Extraordinary Meridians, he felt a powerful stream of liquid running under his skin.

His Qi and Blood seethed with indescribable power, his breath was smoother and his vision was sharper.

Ximen Wei is now officially a Level 1 Qi Trainee!

He felt like he could bend the metal bars of the jail cell in front of him very easily, but he did not choose to do so!

He sat down cross legged and started contemplating... From where did the Scroll come in? Who sent it? What motives the person who sent it have?

A lot of questions popped up inside his mind but currently, he chose to ignore him since his top priority right now, was to escape this horrendous place before something terrible happens to him!

Meanwhile, somewhere on top of Green Lotus City walls.

Long Gen was stroking his beard as usual, thinking about his choice earlier.. whether it was correct to give Ximen Wei a bit of help or not..

When he saw him grab the scroll and open the first Extraordinary Meridian, he heaved a sigh of relief, when his second Extraordinary Meridian opened, he nodded in approval, when his third Extraordinary Meridian opened, he smiled ever so faintly.. However, when his Sixth Extraordinary Meridian opened, his expression quickly turned into astonishment and shock.

This was completely unprecendented in the history of cultivation!

Only Eight Extraordinary Meridians can be opened during the initial stages of Qi Cultivation, that's the limit!

And the initial stages of Qi Cultivation include the very first three levels of Qi Trainees and the first Rank!

What Ximen Wei has done was astonishing, unprecentended and something only the talented Chosen and Dao Children of powerful entities can do!

Since he opened six Extraordinary Meridians during only the first level of Qi Trainees, then his future prospects are limitless! And at top of that, he opened six with only a measly Qi Condensation Manual that isn't even at the Earth Rank!

What would happen if Ximen Wei cultivated and opened his Extraordinary Meridians with a Heaven Rank Qi Condensation Manual? The results would be unimaginable! An Eight Extraordinary Meridian is totally possible.. And even the legendary, unheard of Ninth Extraordinary Meridian is technically feasible!

Long Gen's eyes gleamed with unprecentended brightness as he prepared himself to leap off the wall and grab the kid! He can not let this opportunity pass! This kid is a valuable asset to the sect!

If he dies at the hands of the Song family, then it will be a loss, a big loss!

However, before Long Gen could take off! He was locked in place!

He quickly grabbed a talisman and crushed it quickly, sending a stress signal back to his sect!

He acted fast and quick, with no hesitation whatsoever.

After circulating his cultivation base, he managed to break out of the lock, albeit with effort.

He stared off into the distance, where a figure emerged from one of the mansions deep inside the city, the suffocating pressure of a Rank 2 Qi Expert emanated off him.

He was tall, almost 2 meters, his face was stout and his hair was dark.

He wore a luxurious robe that had dragon drawings on it, giving off an imperial and majestic air.

This middle aged man was none other than the legendary Green Lotus City Lord, a Rank 2 Wind Path Qi Expert!!
