Chapter 1959 1.1958 The Ren and Du Meridians

If that's the case, wouldn't it be like mass-producing 5.5-star Earth Immortals if all thirty-three "Hundred-Claw Asura Women" quickly mastered the "Wedding Dress Divine Skill" and transferred the seven layers of true energy in their bodies to people like Jingyin?

It should be noted that the miraculous elixir that helps one quickly achieve divine power only contains five pills per bottle at most.

Although it can't be exchanged for a golden elixir like a peerless martial arts manual, these miraculous elixirs, "gathering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and absorbing the essence of the sun and moon," are hard-won and should still be respected.

Even Du Shiniang, the elder of the Treasure Pavilion, possessed only a very limited amount. For a courtesan like the top courtesan of the Changsan brothel in Shanghai to eat "Ten Elixir Pills" like candy is a rare and unusual phenomenon throughout history.

This is precisely why the medicinal power accumulated in Huang Xiuhong and the others' meridians, preventing it from being fully released. This is also why Wu Chen wanted to use the "Wedding Dress Divine Skill" to clear the meridians of Huang Xiuhong and the other two.

Some may ask, as mentioned earlier, spirit stones and spirit pearls cannot be directly absorbed. Why then can elixirs and miraculous medicines be taken?

Actually, the answer has already been given.

There are three dantians: the lower dantian, the middle dantian, and the upper dantian. The upper dantian is the abode of the spirit, the middle dantian is the abode of qi, and the lower dantian is the abode of essence. The lower dantian "refines essence into qi" → the middle dantian "refines qi into spirit" → the upper dantian "refines spirit to return to emptiness" → achieving "unity of heaven and man".

Once the lower dantian is cultivated, one can "refine essence into qi." The spiritual energy of heaven and earth contained in the elixir is refined into true qi. Then, the true qi circulates through the (small) heaven and earth, forming the middle dantian to "refine qi into spirit," and the true qi circulates through the great heaven and earth, forming the upper dantian to "refine spirit into emptiness."

Wu Chen's intention was clear. Relying on the special abilities of the "Wedding Dress Divine Skill" and combining it with the rapid cultivation of miraculous pills, he transferred the seven layers of internal energy from Huang Xiuhong, Wu Fulian, and Wen Cuiping to Qin Cao.

Without further ado, just do it.

Huang Xiuhong, Wu Fulian, and Wen Cuiping sat in a triangular formation. Qin Cao and Jingyin sat behind Wu Fulian and Wen Cuiping, to their left and right. The most important prerequisite was a thorough understanding of the energy circulation path of the *Wedding Dress Divine Skill*. Then, they guided their true energy along the *Wedding Dress Divine Skill*'s circulation path, completing a full cycle and converging it into the dantian (lower abdomen). This process was repeated. The entire process of transmitting the skill involved absorbing and transforming all the spiritual energy dissolved and accumulated from the elixir into true energy. In the martial arts world, all schools and sects, though their methods and techniques differed, all pursued the principle of "cultivating both internal and external strength." Internal training focused on mental techniques, while external training focused on physical forms. Hence the saying, "Cultivate one's inner energy, and strengthen one's muscles, bones, and skin externally."

Huang Xiuhong, Wu Fulian, and Wen Cuiping each took a Marrow Cleansing Pill, held it in their mouths, and pressed it under the base of their tongues.

Hold your breath and concentrate, focusing your mind and guarding your inner self.

As the Marrow Cleansing Pill dissolved in the body fluids, the overflowing spiritual energy was forced into the throat and into the Chong Meridian by Qin Cao and Jing Yin's palm force. Then, following the circulation path of the "Wedding Dress Divine Skill," it flowed through the body, sinking to the Dantian. This process was repeated until the effects of the Marrow Cleansing Pill were exhausted, simultaneously dissolving the effects of the Ten Spirit Pills that had accumulated in the meridians. While expanding the eight extraordinary meridians, the Ren and Du meridians were opened in one fell swoop. The great circulation of true energy began, and the "Wedding Dress Divine Skill" was initially completed. The eight extraordinary meridians were unobstructed. Then, a Great Rejuvenation Pill was ingested, and the true energy circulated back and forth, gathering into a sea of ​​energy. Finally, the Returning Origin Pill was ingested, igniting the Samadhi True Fire, performing the "Guiding Fire Back to Origin" technique.

Huang Xiuhong, Wu Fulian, and Wen Cuiping, their bodies blazing with inner energy, had refined their mortal forms. They had purified themselves, returning to their original, pure selves. Their spirits were radiant and restrained, their appearances ethereal and otherworldly.

The Divine Skill of the Wedding Dress has been mastered to its highest level (seventh level).

In terms of the level of cultivation techniques, they can be roughly divided into five stages: entry level (level 1), minor achievement level (level 3), major achievement level (level 7), perfection level (level 9), and peak achievement level (level 10).

Of course, this is also related to the levels of the cultivation technique itself. For example, the highest unique skill of the Yihua Palace, the Mingyu Skill, is divided into nine levels. Reaching the pinnacle is also the ninth level.

There is another measurement that needs special explanation: power.

Generally speaking, this is a measurement of the practitioner's capacity to utilize their own internal energy. Three-tenths of one's power means utilizing 30% of the body's internal energy. Ten-tenths of one's power means utilizing 100% of the body's internal energy. Additionally, some techniques involve stimulating specific acupoints for a brief burst of power, allowing the practitioner to unleash twelve-tenths of their power, utilizing 120% of their internal energy. This level is similar to an overload or excess state, exceeding one's own energy limit. Often, this extra 20% of energy is achieved by expending vital energy.

As mentioned earlier, the body's meridians are divided into blood vessels and qi vessels. Both blood vessels and qi vessels can store blood and qi, but with different focuses. Blood vessels primarily store blood, with qi storage as a secondary function; qi vessels primarily store qi, with blood storage as a secondary function. The eight extraordinary meridians crisscross and run between the twelve regular meridians. When the qi of the twelve regular meridians and the internal organs is vigorous, the extraordinary meridians store it; when the physiological functions of the twelve regular meridians require it, the extraordinary meridians can replenish and supply it. Therefore, the extraordinary meridians have the function of regulating the qi of the twelve regular meridians.

The answer is obvious. That's right, the extra 20% of true qi comes from the "Twelve Primary Meridians." Once true qi is depleted, the qi of the twelve meridians and internal organs will be exhausted, resulting in internal injuries in mild cases and death in severe cases. This is precisely the reason behind the saying, "When qi and blood are abundant, longevity and good fortune will follow."

Of course, if one possesses a rare treasure, that's a different story. For example, Qin Cao, blessed by the Formless Golden Elixir, can exert all twelve parts of her power without any problem. This is because the extra power comes from the Formless Golden Elixir transferring its essence to her.

At this very moment, Huang Xiuhong, Wu Fulian, and Wen Cuiping experienced a sudden reversal of their internal energy in their dantian (lower abdomen). The energy surged backward through the eight extraordinary meridians, with one meridian heading straight for the Du meridian.

The Governing Vessel (Du Mai) is known as the "Sea of ​​Yang Meridians" because it "governs all Yang." It originates in the lower abdomen (Dantian), descends to the perineum, runs posteriorly along the spine, ascends to the Fengfu point at the back of the neck, enters the brain, ascends to the top of the head, descends along the forehead to the bridge of the nose, and runs through all the Yang meridians of the body. It governs the Yang Qi of the whole body, regulates the circulation of Yang Qi, and maintains the balance of Yang Qi in the body.

One path leads straight to the Ren meridian.

The Ren meridian, also known as the "Sea of ​​Yin Meridians," governs all Yin meridians. It originates in the lower abdomen (Dantian), descends to the perineum, ascends along the midline of the abdomen, passes through acupoints such as Guanyuan, reaches the throat, then ascends to the inner part of the lower lip, encircles the lips, and converges at the Yinjiao acupoint of the Du meridian. From there, it passes through both sides of the nose and ascends to below the eye sockets. It governs the Yin energy of the entire body, regulating the circulation of Yin energy and maintaining the balance of Yin energy in the body.

Seeing the Yin and Yang energies surging wildly, flowing backwards into the Ren and Du meridians, and about to break the Great Circulation, it was clear that the true energy was about to circulate wildly.

With a flick of her long sleeves, Jingyin sent Huang Xiuhong, Wu Fulian, and Wen Cuiping to face each other in a triangular formation, palms facing each other. She then pressed her fingers together on the major acupoints on their bodies. The healing master, Cheng Lingsu, immediately used acupuncture to seal the meridians and guide the Yin and Yang energies towards specific meridians. The Qi burst forth from the bodies through the three Yang meridians and three Yin meridians of the left and right hands.

Qin Cao shifted her position and struck her palms together. The four people sat in a circle, and the surging, turbulent true energy was finally absorbed into Qin Cao's body.

The three men channeled their seventh-level "Wedding Dress Divine Skill" true energy fiercely into Qin Cao's eight extraordinary meridians. The Formless Divine Skill was activated in response. However, the one who appeared was not one of the Twelve Heavenly Venerables, but rather the dignified and majestic Qin Cao herself.

The deity's appearance and attire were identical to Qin Cao's. Her demeanor and gestures were remarkably lifelike.

The true energy surged, and light and shadow flickered.

The formless golden elixir embedded in the "Rainbow Feather Robe" belt emitted divine light and overflowed with colorful radiance.

At its brightest, it disintegrated with a bang. It transformed into streams of supreme primordial energy, shaped like a pair of yin-yang fish, which swirled and entered Qin Cao's Shenque acupoint (navel).
