Chapter 56 - Acupoint Unsealing Realm, Supreme Stage

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed. During this time, Jiang Feng and the other two had stayed in the Heaven-class room, not stepping outside even once.

Firstly, the place was suitable for both cultivation and healing injuries, making it the most appropriate place for Jiang Feng and Chief Steward Li. Secondly, they were afraid Tian Heng, who was enraged, would do something irrational.

Murong Chuan grumbled inwardly at the trio’s actions.

What? Does he really think he can just freeload in the Heaven-class room whenever he wants? Does the Murong family run a charity?

If it weren’t for Gu Han’s sake, he would have probably kicked the three out long ago.

***

Crack!

Once again, a faint sound came from within Gu Han’s body, signaling that he’d broken through the barrier of another acupoint.

He slowly opened his eyes. “

Hah...

”

Remarkably, his cultivation had reached the fourth stage of the Acupoint Unsealing realm. With the Blood Spirit Art and the Great Evolution Sword Qi, he was confident that even if Yu Hua came again, he wouldn’t be as helpless as he was a few days ago.

Not far away, Fatty said in a slightly sour tone, “Yo! Broken through?

Tsk,

that pill really is something else.”

Gu Han regarded him with disdain. “Fatty, what are you doing here, clinging on shamelessly? I don’t recall us being that close?”

By that point, he’d become certain that Fatty was hiding a big secret. The fact that Fatty easily recognized he had achieved the Supreme Stage was enough to prove his complicated origins.

Fatty jumped up. “Leave? Where should I go? Do you have any idea how dangerous it is outside? What if I run into that shameless bastard? Would I even survive!?”

Gu Han was speechless because there was some logic to that.

At that moment, Jiang Feng walked over. He was dripping with envy witnessing the level Gu Han had ascended to. “Brother Gu, you broke through again.”

Gu Han could only comfort him. “Take your time, you can do it too.”

Jiang Feng smiled wryly. “Miss Ah Sha started cultivating later than me, but her cultivation level is already far higher than mine. What could be the issue?”

Then, he grew a little suspicious.

Is my Extreme Cold Physique fake?

Gu Han felt a little regretful at his mention of Ah Sha. “It’s a pity. I was originally planning to help her achieve the Supreme Stage, but I didn’t expect her to break through first...”

Fatty glanced at him. “Supreme Stage?

Heh,

if you want her dead, go ahead and help!”

Gu Han frowned. “Fatty, what do you mean?”

Fatty shot him a suspicious look. “You don’t know? Isn’t it obvious how risky the Supreme Stage in the Qi Condensation realm is? To achieve it, you must spend years tempering and honing your meridians, then take all kinds of rare treasures to solidify them. Even then, you have to be extremely careful during the breakthrough. If you carelessly helped her, she would just explode and die!”

A look of displeasure flashed across Gu Han’s face. “Explode... and die?”

Fatty was even more puzzled. “Yeah. Really? No one told you? How in hell did you achieve the Supreme Stage?

Tsk tsk tsk...

How lucky!”

Gu Han’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He gritted his teeth and closed his eyes. “Wait here for me!”

***

At that moment, in the main area of the inn...

Mei Yun stepped into the inn, muttering to himself, “

Ah,

this is so troublesome! Who can afford to provoke the Treasure Pavilion? It’s bad enough for you guys, but you even corrupted the Seventh Prince!”

After inquiring for a long time, he found out that Gu Han and the others were staying here. He also learned that the Treasure Pavilion had been played like a fiddle, losing their reputation.

Upon hearing the description of the group’s appearances, he was certain that Gu Han and Fatty had caused trouble again.

Qian Liu, who had just arrived, didn’t know Mei Yun. He greeted the instructor with a smile, “Esteemed guest, do you need a room?”

“I am Mei Yun, an instructor from the Martial Academy. I’m here to find—”

Suddenly, a gust of strong wind swept over, instantly pushing him out of the inn. Murong Chuan had appeared out of nowhere.

Mei Yun couldn’t comprehend what was happening. “Manager Murong, why are you—”

However, Murong Chuan’s face was as dark as a pit. “Don’t come any closer! Say whatever you have to say from outside!”

Mei Yun felt so wronged he wanted to cry.

***

After seeing Gu Han open his eyes again, Jiang Feng was a little curious. “Brother Gu, what were you doing just now?”

Gu Han waved his hand. “Nothing...”

Just teaching a lesson to a certain unscrupulous bastard!

He added silently in his heart.

Then, he heard the black shadow’s faint curses from within his subspace, giving him extreme relief. If it weren’t for the mutation in his meridians, the black shadow could’ve killed Gu Han!

Having suffered this hidden loss, he didn’t dare to be careless. “Fatty, you know how to get to the Supreme Stage for the Acupoint Unsealing realm, right?”

Fatty was somewhat surprised. “

Huh?

You even know about this?”

“Stop the nonsense, just say it!”

The fatty didn’t forget to put on airs. ”

Heh

. Well...”

“If you don’t tell me, I’ll send you to Instructor Mei!”

Fatty’s face turned pale. “NO! Absolutely not! Okay, I’ll tell you,

geez

!”

He cursed Gu Han inwardly, not daring to beat around the bush any longer. “You should know that there are three hundred and sixty acupoints in a cultivator’s body, right?”

“Yes.”

Fatty sighed, tinged with some emotions. “Actually, that’s wrong. There should be three hundred and sixty-five! The five extra ones are called hidden acupoints!”

“Hidden acupoints?”

“Right, these five hidden acupoints are extremely special. They exist independently, not connected to the body’s meridians, and their capacity is far beyond your imagination. If you can find all five hidden acupoints, your spirit power will then double compared to its original foundation.”

Double?!

Gu Han’s heart shook.

Having achieved the Supreme Stage in the Qi Condensation realm, the depth of his spirit power was about five times that of an ordinary cultivator at the same level. Doubling that foundation would be ten times. He could rely on spirit power alone to crush his enemy, without using any divine secret arts.

Fatty seemed to know what Gu Han was thinking and snorted disdainfully. “Don’t even think about it! Crushing opponents with ten times the spirit power? Dream on! Do you have any idea how difficult it is to find the five hidden acupoints?

“If the Supreme Stage in the Qi Condensation realm emphasizes risk, then the Supreme Stage in the Acupoint Unsealing realm emphasizes difficulty! It’s no exaggeration to say it’s as difficult as ascending to heaven!”

Gu Han was still unwilling to give up. “How difficult is it?”

Fatty became serious. “Let me put it this way. Finding one hidden acupoint allows you to claim you’ve achieved the Supreme Stage in the Acupoint Unsealing realm. Finding two means you’ve had incredibly good luck. Finding three is exceedingly rare. You could search the entire world and hardly find anyone that has found four. As for finding all five...

heh,

I’ve never even heard of it!”

On the side, Jiang Feng listened with a yearning heart. “May I ask, Brother Fatty, where exactly are these hidden acupoints?”

Fatty pointed to his limbs, then tapped his brow. “Here! And here, one each.”

The five hidden acupoints corresponded precisely to the four limbs and the space between the eyebrows.

Gu Han asked again, “How exactly do you find them?”

Fatty stared at Gu Han as if he were an idiot.

“Spirit perception! You’re so ignorant. Did you think increasing your soul power only benefits your future Divine Connection realm? That’s a big mistake. As your soul power increases, your spirit perception and sensing ability correspondingly improve as well.” As he spoke, he pointed at Jiang Feng. “Then your success rate in finding the hidden acupoints would be dozens of times greater than his.”

Jiang Feng looked embarrassed.

Why did you have to use me as an example when making a point?!

Gu Han was silent for a moment, then sighed with emotion, “The Supreme Stage is truly remarkable!”
