Chapter 8 - The Puppet Valley and the Aperture Connecting Realm!
Chapter 8: The Puppet Valley and the Aperture Connecting Realm!
Hum!
The long sword lightly hummed as it shot through the air!
Nine sword shadows flickered!
They all landed on the nearby wall.
The house shook.
The extremely sturdy wall actually directly collapsed!
A faint yellow light shone in.
Shapes began to form within the dust.
“So strong!” Meng Changqing subconsciously tightened his grip on the long sword.
It’s worth noting that this was the sect’s building, made of quite hard materials.
He remembered that yesterday he could only pierce through, leaving behind sword marks.
But now it directly collapsed!
And he didn’t even use his full strength.
Just a casual slash!
“Advancing in cultivation is part of the reason, but more importantly, it’s the Sword Qi!” Meng Changqing thought to himself.
Sword Qi was a mysterious power.
With Sword Qi, the power of any Sword Qi would be enhanced.
Specifically, it depended on the grade of the Sword Qi.
“Now, can I challenge the Aperture Connecting Realm?”
Meng Changqing looked at the long sword in his hand.
Above the Forge Meridian is the Aperture Connecting Realm.
What is the Aperture Connecting Realm?
The human body had many acupoints and profound connections, called Yuan Apertures.
Yuan Apertures contain Yuan Blood, which was the blood of the innate, possessing extraordinary power.
After absorption, the functions of the body would undergo qualitative changes!
It’s not comparable to the Vein TemperingRealm.
But with Sword Qi, Meng Changqing felt that he should be able to confront warriors who have just entered the Aperture Connecting Realm.
“Next, it’s time to focus on cultivation and strive to cultivate to the Aperture Connecting Realm as soon as possible!”
Meng Changqing sheathed his sword.
Bright light gleamed in his eyes.
Only by breaking through to the Aperture Connecting Realm could he qualify to enter the inner sect!
“Cultivate!” He turned and went to the adjacent room.
In the outer sect, if you have money, you can rent a large courtyard.
No need to squeeze with others.
Time flew.
Soon, half a month passed.
The resounding sound of the bell once again echoed through the territory of the Tai Xuan Sect, shaking people’s hearts.
At this time, many people were running towards the depths of the outer sect.
Because today was the end of the month.
And it’s also the day the Puppet Valley opens.
The Tai Xuan Sect’s requirements for disciples could be said to be extremely strict.
To enter the inner sect from the outer sect, just becoming Aperture Connecting Realm wasn’t enough.
They also needed to pass through the Puppet Valley!
The gorge wasn’t long, only three hundred meters.
But inside were arranged many humanoid puppets.
The strength increased as one go further.
It was said that at the end, there were second-level puppets comparable to the Aperture Connecting Realm!
Over the years.
Many outer sect disciples, clearly reaching the Aperture Connecting Realm, were still blocked by the valley and couldn’t enter the inner sect.
It took another one or two years, or even longer, to pass through.
The Tai Xuan Sect’s outer sect disciples were actually quite numerous. After all, it’s one of the few second-grade sects in the Tianling Prefecture!
Roughly estimated, there are tens of thousands of them.
As a result, every once in a while, Aperture Connecting Realm cultivators emerge.
Just like today, in front of the Puppet Valley, shrouded in a cold aura, three figures stood.
They were all Aperture Connecting Realm warriors from the outer sect.
Their strength was at the first level.
“Do you think these three can make it through today?”
In the near distance, many people were watching, and someone asked, “Do you think they can make it? These three seem to have broken through to the Aperture Connecting Realm about a year ago, indicating deep preparation.”
Immediately, someone replied, “They should be able to. The fact that these three reached the Aperture Connecting Realm a year ago shows how deeply they’ve prepared.”
Hearing the discussion of the crowd, the three stood a little taller, their faces showing confidence. Indeed, after a year of preparation and cultivation, they believed they could pass through!
The Inner Sect! That’s where the elite of the sect resides! Where true martial arts were cultivated!
“Who will go first?” asked the Outer Sect elder slowly. He was already old, with a hint of twilight in his aura. Looking at the three, his eyes remained calm, without any ripples.
“I’ll go first!” said one of them, stepping forward. He was burly, carrying a large knife, and marched towards the gorge.
For a moment, everyone watched him expectantly.
In the elegant room, a tall figure sat cross-legged, shirtless, revealing strong but not exaggerated muscles. The lines were quite perfect. It was Meng Changqing.
Today marked the fifteenth day of his seclusion and cultivation! The room was filled with bottles and jars, indicating the consumption of many resources. His aura had also significantly strengthened compared to before, almost reaching the pinnacle of the Aperture Connecting Realm!
At a certain moment, a cracking sound suddenly came from within Meng Changqing’s body, as if a bottleneck had shattered! It could be clearly felt that with each passing moment, Meng Changqing’s aura was skyrocketing, almost bursting free from its constraints!
Roaring echoed around!
After dozens of breaths, Meng Changqing slowly opened his eyes, a strong sense of oppression emanating from them. This was the manifestation of his increased strength!
“Finally… I’ve reached the Aperture Connecting Realm!” Meng Changqing exhaled deeply, a smile appearing on his face. Although the past half-month of seclusion had been dull, the results were gratifying!
He sensed the condition within his body. Blood flowed like quicksilver, thick and full of vitality, the meridians broad and flexible, the muscles becoming even tighter. At this moment, whether it was strength, speed, or anything else, they had all been terrifyingly boosted tenfold! Especially in his right hand, where the first Yuan Aperture had opened, continuously releasing pure yuan blood that permeated every part of his body!
