Chapter 2182 - 2179: What Day Is It

Chapter 2182: Chapter 2179: What Day Is It

"I don’t know, I can’t sense it," the Sword Spirit answered again straightforwardly.

"You can’t sense it either, it seems my spiritual power isn’t enough to sustain it for long," Lin Tian guessed, raising his eyebrows.

"Now that Master has made the Heart Cleansing Pill, with it, practicing the Xuanwu Meditation will be much easier. Over time, with improved spiritual power, you’ll be able to uncover the truth," the Sword Spirit analyzed.

Lin Tian shook his head and said seriously, "You’re wrong. If I always rely on the Heart Cleansing Pill, it will only become more difficult later on. Only by relying on my own strength to meditate can I truly master the Xuanwu Meditation. The Heart Cleansing Pill is just an aid, once initiated, it must be set aside."

"Master is indeed insightful," the Sword Spirit flattered.

Lin Tian laughed but didn’t pay it any more attention, continuing to cultivate. However, this time it wasn’t practicing the Xuanwu Meditation, but the first Chapter of the Beast Skin Cultivation Technique.

After a round of movements, Lin Tian sat cross-legged again, as the Moonlight Energy descended, gathered, absorbed, and strengthened the zombie’s body. As the Moonlight Energy gathered more and more, Lin Tian focused, and a burst of energy materialized in his palm.

The Moonlight Energy was invisible to the physical eye, but at this moment, as it gathered more and more, it shone like the essence of the daytime sun.

A moon-white light ball rotated in his palm, like a small moon, illuminating the room.

"Wow, Master, your control is getting stronger and stronger. Mastering the Sword Control Technique will be within reach," the Sword Spirit exaggeratedly praised.

"I’m not practicing the Sword Control Technique right now; I’m trying to open up the inner meridian channels," Lin Tian said calmly.

A thought flickered in his mind, and a new internal meridian image appeared in his mind. Then, the moon-white energy light ball penetrated his palm, moving along the left arm’s bones.

The intense pain, as expected, did not disappoint Lin Tian. The pain was equivalent to skinning and bone scraping. But with previous experience, Lin Tian was prepared, holding his ground unwaveringly.

Just like when unblocking the right arm, it was quick. When the wave of intense pain receded, there was a rush of almost cheering joy, but what followed was the complete numbness of the left arm.

This feeling of losing control was really unpleasant. However, Lin Tian had no choice but to treat it as if he had lay on it while sleeping and woke up with a numb hand.

Of course, this numbness was more severe than a simple numb hand, the whole arm had no feeling at all. Lin Tian could only divert his attention, activating a super-perspective to study the two new meridian channels in his arms.

The new meridians were fine, as Moonlight Energy fused with released solar essence, new energy flowed slowly through the meridians, strengthening the arms. Now that both arms were being strengthened simultaneously, at least they wouldn’t turn into "Qilin Arm."

However, the meridians were newly formed and quite thin, needing constant cultivation to grow stronger and larger.

"Master, why not just open all your inner meridian channels? After all, if one arm goes numb, might as well have the whole body numb," the Sword Spirit boldly suggested, not fearing trouble.

"It takes a whole night for just one arm to recover from numbness. If the whole body goes numb and loses sensation, who knows how long it would take to recover? The Ancient Martial arts competition is imminent, it’s a tumultuous time, I can’t risk any accidents," Lin Tian was clear-headed and rejected the Sword Spirit’s proposal.

"Master doesn’t need to compete. Why worry?" the Sword Spirit muttered.

"I don’t need to compete, but Miss isn’t she competing? And Ghost isn’t he competing? I’m just worried some people will use their age to act elder-like and cause trouble," Lin Tian snorted coldly.

The Sword Spirit thought for a moment and said, "It seems you’re right. Judging by Ling Zishan’s tone, this Ancient Martial arts competition is of great importance, and no Ancient Martial family wants to miss this opportunity."

"Opening the whole body isn’t feasible. Maybe opening the legs first should be fine," Lin Tian pondered for a moment and decided. "Let’s see how to open the leg meridians first."

"Gather energy, starting from the Hui Yin and ending at the toe bones... Hui Yin..." Lin Tian muttered a phrase, involuntarily rolling his eyes, because the new leg meridian starting point was indeed a dangerous place.

It wasn’t like the Dantian; the starting point "Hui Yin" was too close to a man’s third leg, and a small mistake could lead to an accident.

If that were to be destroyed, what would be the point of a man’s life? The most speechless part was that such an important Cultivation Technique didn’t even specify precautions, it was practically a product with no guarantees.

"Cough cough, Master, you’re a zombie, so you don’t need to fear," the Sword Spirit teased.

"A zombie is still a living body. If it exceeds its limit, it can still get destroyed. Didn’t you see Yasuo? Wasn’t he taken out by a single arrow from Ancestor Xu?" Lin Tian was cautious, not fearing death, just fearing living like a eunuch.

"But it’s worth a try. This first Chapter of the Cultivation Technique was given to me by Nu Ba. The entire Cultivation Technique should be fine," Lin Tian thought a moment and decided to give it a try.

He once again gathered Moonlight Energy, but to be safe, he reduced the amount of energy so that if there were an accident, the damage would be minimal.

A moon-white light ball formed once more, and Lin Tian carefully guided it through the Hui Yin point, to then transition through the old meridians into the bones.

"It’s fine, phew..." The energy was obedient enough, and Lin Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

But before he could fully relax, the intense pain came again, feeling like a hammer smashing an egg, with the egg breaking, then like an Italian gun firing and suddenly misfiring.

Lin Tian felt, no, he completely couldn’t feel anything. At the moment of fainting, he suddenly recalled a fact—Qingyao was female; cultivating this Cultivation Technique posed no such danger.

But no amount of frustration helped now; he was completely unconscious, lying stiffly on the bed.

"Alas, poor Master. Luckily, this king doesn’t have such a thing," the Sword Spirit sighed softly, unsure if it was rejoicing or gloating.

As night passed and the sun rose, the warm spring sunlight brightened the room. Lin Tian felt it was a bit dazzling and suddenly opened his eyes, hearing a commotion from outside.

He wasn’t in the mood to care who was causing a racket but immediately checked his "injuries," first finding out his left arm could move. Although it was still a bit numb, it at least did not affect its use.

Then he found out his third leg was still intact; Lin Tian truly breathed a sigh of relief now, just that his current state was somewhat indecent, like tectonic plates pressing together, forming Mount Everest.

Lin Tian tried to get up but found his legs weren’t quite responsive. What upset him more was that despite all the pain, the new leg meridians hadn’t been opened.

At this time, the noise outside got closer, followed by knocking at the door: "Lin Tian, don’t you know what day it is today? Still sleeping in, we’re coming in..."

A familiar voice called out, just like the little girl waking him up in the past, it was indeed Xiao Manxuan.

Even Xiao Manxuan had gone to the back of the mountain. Lin Tian tried to remember what day it was today, and at that moment, the door already started to open; there was no lock on the house in the back of the mountain, and no thief dared approach the back mountain.

Lin Tian turned around and saw several beauties had arrived. Suddenly, he remembered his condition and instinctively shouted, "Xuanxuan, don’t come in."
