Earthly Deity Chapter 161

Despite preparing a large number of healing pills, the wounds on Mo Wuji’s body were accumulating more and more. Similarly, his veins were opened up one by one.

The seventy-eighth ……

The moment the seventy-eighth vein was opened up, several more lightning arcs blasted down. In his eagerness, Mo Wuji abandoned the Immortal Mortal Technique’s Circumstantial Travelling Technique and directly switched to the Circumstantial Travelling Technique of the first of the Seven Styles of Heavenly Thunder.

Opening a vein meant that he could rest for half an hour, and for so many lightning arcs to come before he rested, wouldn’t that add to his injuries?

The Immortal Mortal Technique could only allow him to guide the lightning arcs to bombard his chakra, but it could not allow him to resist them, nor could it weaken his injuries. Running the Seven Styles of Heavenly Thunder was also something that Mo Wuji had no choice but to do.

“Ka ka ka ka ……” Several thunder arcs landed on Mo Wuji’s body, and to Mo Wuji’s surprise, these several thunder arcs did not cause him much damage. The lightning sources that bombarded his body were all dissolved by the first of his Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles and absorbed at the same time.

A few thunder arcs fell, and half an hour had already arrived. The Thunder Refinement Room was quiet until it was silent, and there was no more half a thunder arc.

Mo Wuji did not immediately go to rest like before. Instead, he inexplicably looked at his palms with delight. He had unintentionally discovered that his Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles could absorb the thunder source of a thunder arc, which was completely different from guiding a thunder arc to open up a vein.

Guiding a lightning arc to open a vein was to use the power of the lightning arc to punch open a blocked vein, whereas he had just literally absorbed the vast majority of the lightning sources from several lightning arcs. All of these lightning sources were fused into his Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles’ first style, Thunderous Thunder out of thin air.

Mo Wuji consciously made several hand techniques and raised his hand to blast out. Several blasts of thunder exploded out of thin air in the space of the Thunder Refining Room, and the power was much more powerful than his previous execution of Thunderbolt Out of Space.

Mo Wuji’s heartbeat accelerated, originally, he thought that as his cultivation level got higher, the first of the Seven Styles of Heavenly Thunder would only get stronger. Now it seemed that this was not the case at all, the Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles could also be cultivated. Just like ordinary cultivators who cultivated and absorbed aura, the Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles cultivation absorbed thunder source.

“Hahahaha ……” figuring this out, Mo Wuji laughed out loud in the Thunder Refinement Room.

He couldn’t help but be happy, before, half an hour to open up a vein and then having to rest for half a day while consuming many pills and enduring the pain of his injuries.

Now, all he had to do was to run the Immortal Mortal Technique to guide the lightning arcs to blast open the chakra at the same time, and then run the Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles to absorb the excess lightning strikes, enhancing the power of his first style of Thunder Striking Out of Space.

In this way, he didn’t need to rest at all and could open up his veins in a steady stream.

Mo Wuji just hurriedly ate two healing pills and rested for a few minutes before he couldn’t wait to set another half hour. He wanted to try and see if his idea would work or not.

The vein opening medicinal liquid was drunk, and the lightning arcs of the Thunder Refining Room came blasting down from the sky.

Mo Wuji guarded his mind, his divine thoughts controlling some of the lightning arcs to impact the blocked veins under the operation of the Immortal Mortal Technique, while running the Thunderbolt from Out of Space to absorb those excess lightning arcs of lightning sources that fell on him.

In just one incense stick of time, his 79th vein was blown open. At this time, he had only been hit by two or three thunder arcs. The excess thunder arc lightning sources were all absorbed by the first of his Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles, transforming them into the power of the Out of Space Surprising Thunder Dharma Technique.

Half an hour passed, and by the time Mo Wuji set the Thunder Refining Chamber’s thunder arc attacks to stop, he had already pierced through his 80th chakra.

Mo Wuji clenched his fists, secretly excited in his heart. Not only had he found a way to not get injured, he had also found a way to utilise the thunder source to cultivate the Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles.

……

After waiting in the ground floor hall for a good half an hour, Mo Wuji still showed no signs of coming down. Not only was Cen Shuyin not disappointed, in her heart, she was even more desperate to obtain Mo Wuji’s Thunder Cultivation Technique. With a slight apology, she bid farewell to the handsome male cultivator who was talking incessantly and turned around to leave the Immortal Refinement Tower.

As long as Mo Wuji was still in the Heavenly Enquiring Academy, she would not give up on obtaining the Thunder Refining Technique herself.

……

Ninety-fifth Vein, Ninety-sixth Vein ……

Ever since he learnt that the Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles could be cultivated with the help of thunder sources in here, Mo Wuji had never rested and had been continuously opening up his veins. With every single vein that was opened, his entire being looked more comfortable.

At this moment, Mo Wuji completely ignored the fact that he was already in the process of opening his 97th chakra, knowing that in the entire Lost Continent, those who were able to open their 97th chakra would be few and far between.

“Ka!” Mo Wuji only spent a little more than an incense stick of time before the ninety-seventh chakra was directly blasted open.

Another bottle of vein opening medicinal liquid was consumed, and Mo Wuji guided the lightning arc to blast in the ninety-eighth vein.

By this time, other than the lightning arcs that he guided into his body at the veins to open up the veins, the rest of the lightning arcs that were bombarded on him were all absorbed by him to cultivate the Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles.

The ninety-eighth chakra was blasted open without half an obstacle.

The ninety-ninth chakra was up, and at this point, Mo Wuji finally remembered Shen Ren’s words. Back then, Shen Ren had said that ninety-nine was an extreme number, and only a very few geniuses would be able to open up ninety-nine spirit chakras. As for those who opened up the hundredth spirit chakra, they were all geniuses amongst geniuses and belonged to the category of immortal spirit roots.

And now he was opening up the ninety-nine chakra, although chakra and spirit chakra were not the same thing, in Mo Wuji’s heart, chakra and spirit chakra were the same and belonged to the same existence. Because after he opened his veins, his cultivation potential would not be weaker than those cultivators who had opened their spirit complexes, the only thing he was weak in was the fact that he did not have a spirit root, and did not have spirit chimes surrounding him.

This was nothing to Mo Wuji. A mortal was a mortal, as long as he could cultivate, so what if he was a mortal?

Other people were able to impact the supreme cultivation path, he, as a mortal, could do the same. Others relied on the cultivation techniques and spirit opening means that had been passed down for countless years, and he relied on the vein opening means that he had created himself. Who could say that opening a vein was weaker than opening a spirit?

If his cultivation method could be promoted, then it could be said that he, Mo Wuji, had set a precedent, a precedent for mortals to cultivate from their veins, an epoch-making creation in the cultivation world.

“Boom boom boom …… click click click ……” A dozen of thunder arcs bombarded Mo Wuji’s body.

This was something that Mo Wuji had purposely adjusted; the previous lightning arcs that fell were at most four or five that landed on him at the same time. After he operated the Seven Styles of Heavenly Thunder at the same time, four or five thunder arcs were simply not enough for him to share, and he simply adjusted the denseness of the thunder arcs in some areas.

These thunder arcs that fell on Mo Wuji’s body were partially guided by Mo Wuji to directly impact the ninety-nine veins, and partially absorbed by his Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles directly.

With such a dense bombardment of thunder arcs, the cracks blasted out from the blockage of the ninety-nine veins were all felt by Mo Wuji. Another dozen or so thunder arcs fell, Mo Wuji did not stop for half a second and once again guided the thunder arcs to blast down.

As the fourth large swathe of thunder arcs fell, the ninety-nine veins on Mo Wuji’s body were completely blasted open.

A feeling of wanting to fly surged through his heart, his entire body was soothed and relaxed. Mo Wuji couldn’t help but open his mouth and let out a long whistle, exhaling all the depressing breath and a turbid Qi from his body.

Seemingly sensing Mo Wuji’s fierce chest, the thunder arc in the Thunder Refining Room came to an abrupt end, and the five hours set by Mo Wuji arrived.

Mo Wuji stood in the middle of the Thunder Refining Room without moving a single centimetre, he still clenched his fists, his eyes filled with confidence and expectation.

Only after a long time did Mo Wuji sit down in place, he still didn’t bother to continue setting the lightning strike time for the Thunder Refinement Room, instead, he took out a bunch of Earth Grade Spirit Stones and started cultivating.

At this moment, Mo Wuji had a premonition that he was about to break away to a new realm.

The spirit qi from the spirit stones was like a vortex that was wildly swirled and absorbed by Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji’s cultivation that was stuck at the consummation of the ninth level of Pulse Expansion was rushed away by the spiritual energy at this moment.

“Boom!” The furious surge of spiritual energy was like a dam was blasted open, clattering into a wider place, allowing his Yuan Power to be released more freely.

The tenth layer of Pulse Expansion was up, Mo Wuji opened his eyes, and his entire being looked even more mortal.

Even if Mo Wuji didn’t have a master to teach him, he was certain that his advancement this time would be at the 10th level of Pulse Expansion and not the 1st level of Spirit Building.

Mo Wuji didn’t continue to cultivate, even if he had to, he wouldn’t cultivate here. The prices in here were incredibly expensive, cultivating here for an hour, that would be a few hundred Earth Grade Spirit Stones gone.

Setting the Thunder Refinement Room for an hour once again, Mo Wuji continued to start quenching his veins. Didn’t Shen Ren say that there was still the hundredth spirit chakra? Today, he would open his hundredth chakra.

Skilfully drinking a bottle of vein opening medicinal liquid, the familiar sensation of his throat sizzling was extraordinarily soothing to Mo Wuji. A new vein stretched out under the Vein Opening Medicinal Liquid, and just like before, this vein was blocked after stretching to a certain extent.

“Boom Boom Boom …… “Another dozen or so lightning arcs fell, Mo Wuji guided a full seven or eight lightning arcs to blast at the blockage of the hundredth vein, according to his experience, as long as he guided it for three to four times in a row, the hundredth vein would definitely be blasted open.

Tearing pain came from Mo Wuji’s hundredth chakra, the thunder arcs that he had guided into the chakra blasted at the blocked chakra without half a reaction. Where the lightning arc did not unload, it directly raged away in Mo Wuji’s meridians.

Even though Mo Wuji had experienced all sorts of pain, these seven to eight thunder arcs of power raging through one of his veins at the same time still left him unable to withstand it, and he instantly collapsed and rolled on the ground.

Luckily, the Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles helped him, as he promptly ran the Heavenly Thunder Seven Styles to absorb the thunder source portion of it.

With a pale face, Mo Wuji looked at the continuously falling thunder arcs with some palpitations and bewilderment, his heart going blank. This didn’t make sense, his vein opening medicinal liquid had worked, why couldn’t the blockage be blasted? Could it be that the thunder arc was not strong enough? Even if the thunder arc was not strong enough, there was still loosening.

Several more lightning arcs landed on Mo Wuji, the pain pulled him back to reality, Mo Wuji once again took out a bottle of Vein Opening Medicinal Liquid and took it.

A scenario that made Mo Wuji even more confused appeared, according to his previous experience, when a vein was not completely opened, taking another Vein Opening Pill Liquid would only cause that unopened vein to continue to expand a little bit, instead of opening up a new vein.

As for the current situation, his one hundredth vein hadn’t been opened up yet, and after he drank another bottle of Vein Opening Medicinal Liquid, his one hundred and first vein had already appeared.
