CHAPTER 641: CHAPTER 401 TRUE SEED! BURST SEED!

Honey Jade entered the throat, warming the entire body.

Under the operation of the "Nine Yang Divine Skill," the nascent ’Innate True Qi’ grows at a faster pace, while the ’Innate True Essence’ hidden within continues to breed and expand along with the growth and enhancement of True Qi, Qi-Blood, muscle and bone, and Primordial Qi.

At the same time, the cultivation of the ’Charging Meridian’ is also progressing. Although the speed is not as astonishing as when Yan Chuan previously perfected ’Bone Training’ with the ’Shura Posture’, breaking through the Heaven and Earth Two Bridges and causing Qi Blood Smoke to reach the skies, it’s still much faster than usual.

Yan Chuan activated the "Nine Yang Divine Skill" to neutralize the toxins of the ’Honey Jade Bee Royal Jelly’.

Then.

He stood up.

Using the "Nine Yang Divine Skill" as the foundation, he stood in the ’Bodhisattva Posture’—

Bone Asura, Muscle Bodhisattva.

The ’Bodhisattva Posture’ trains the muscle.

At the peak of Nine Grades of Muscle Training but not perfection, twelve paths of muscle remained untrained. At this moment, under the power of the ’Honey Jade Bee Royal Jelly’, the final twelve paths of muscle began tempering.

Two taels of Honey Jade!

The effectiveness is immediate!

"One path of muscle, missing slightly."

After refining two taels of Honey Jade, Yan Chuan opened his eyes and noticed that one of the remaining twelve paths of untrained muscle had been half-refined at this moment.

Two taels, half.

Four taels, one path.

In other words—

"I only need three jin of Honey Jade to complete the Muscle Training to perfection!"

This progress isn’t slow.

Don’t just look at how Yan Chuan reached perfection in Bone Training after a fight with the Bear King; that was the blessing after Proving Dao to Innate, a transformation after Divine Meeting, and could be considered a form of Enlightenment.

After that.

Reaching perfection in muscle, skin, and flesh still requires diligent effort and pondering.

With each layer of perfection, there is a Sky-reaching and Earth-penetrating Qi Blood Smoke, allowing the cultivation of ’Charging Meridian’ to progress further.

Once muscle, bone, skin, and flesh have all reached perfection, ’Charging Meridian’ would be four-fifths complete, with the remaining part requiring meticulous work.

In the Innate Realm, one must cultivate the ’Eight Extraordinary Meridians’.

But initially, most Innates can only cultivate one meridian other than the governor and conception vessels, and it’s extremely rare to see two meridians cultivated in the early stages.

Why?

Because the ’Eight Extraordinary Meridians’ are difficult to cultivate.

Even if one meridian is cultivated, it’s through the repeated wash and refinement obtained from the perfection of muscle, bone, skin, and flesh, progressing quickly.

Without this factor, the difficulty of breaking through one meridian would increase by four or five times at least.

Therefore, in the Innate Realm, although cultivation of ’Eight Extraordinary Meridians’ and ’muscle, bone, skin, and flesh’ happens without sequence, it is often seen—

Upon first entering the Innate, cultivate the first meridian.

At Innate Fifth Layer, cultivate the second meridian.

At Innate Tenth Layer, cultivate the third meridian.

At Innate Fifteenth Layer, cultivate the fourth meridian.

This is almost the norm.

After three rounds of refinement of ’muscle, bone, skin, and flesh’, and after cultivating the fourth meridian, the difficulty of cultivating the fifth and sixth meridians in the ’Eight Extraordinary Meridians’ increases exponentially.

This is not the end.

After the six meridians, the difficulty of cultivating the final governor and conception vessels surges again from the basis of the fifth and sixth meridians, skyrocketing.

Each layer is harder than the last!

In the Innate, each step is a hurdle, moving up grade by grade.

Because the cultivation of ’Eight Extraordinary Meridians’ is difficult, many Innates will invariably take a pause at the Fifth Layer, Tenth Layer, Fifteenth Layer, and each layer thereafter, delaying significantly.

Especially after the Fifteenth Layer, the difficulty increases by four or five times, skyrocketing, often stopping people in their tracks, consuming a long time, many Heavenly Prides in the Innate Realm are deadlocked unable to break through.

And more than that, many are permanently tripped up by the obstacles before this.

For example, Shen Gongtu, at Innate Fifth Layer, is blocked by the second meridian, unable to break through.

Not only is the second meridian difficult to cultivate.

The first meridian is the same.

Huang Wuniang, even with the promotion of ’muscle, bone, skin, and flesh’, took three years to cultivate to the first Innate layer.

Jiang Bianliu, slightly faster, took a year.

Chen Ze benefitted from the "Jade Maiden Pure Heart Swordsmanship" to advance quickly, reaching it in half a year.

And Yan Chuan—

"Initially completed Innate, perfect Bone Training."

"Three jin of Honey Jade, perfect Muscle Training."

"With the help of Honey Jade, I’m afraid it won’t take half a month to break through the ’Charging Meridian’ and achieve the first layer of Innate!"

Yan Chuan was pleasantly surprised.

Some are slow!

Some are fast!

But he is faster!

...

"Half a month breakthrough."

"The stability of ’Honey Jade Bee Royal Jelly’ lasts up to half a month, after which it deteriorates and becomes unusable."

"During this period, I can refine at most twenty jin."

Yan Chuan estimated the portion of Honey Jade he could use and digest, at most twenty jin.

"About the same for me." Chen Ze estimated, also twenty jin.

Although his cultivation is one layer higher than Yan Chuan, the "Innate Skill" is inferior to the "Nine Yang Divine Skill", hindering the efficiency of refining Honey Jade, relying more on the consumption of Innate Body Tempering, barely able to have the same consumption as Yan Chuan. If in the same realm, he’s still slightly inferior to Yan Chuan.

The total is eighty-eight jin of Honey Jade, removing the forty jin for the two of them, leaving forty-eight jin remaining.

"Honey Jade is hard to store, and wasting it is not ideal."

Yan Chuan thought: "Elder Jiang, being at the first Innate layer, should normally also digest twenty jin."

But he had previously risked his life, depleted his True Yuan, and since Honey Jade is a Great Medicine, it could somewhat replenish his Primordial Qi and potential, possibly requiring more than Yan Chuan and Chen Ze’s amount, and twenty jin might not be enough.

Yan Chuan twenty jin.

Chen Ze twenty jin.

Next, see how much Jiang Bianliu needs.

If there’s any left, distribute it to Huang Wuniang and Situ Fei.

As for Wang Zhengyi and others, the poison from Honey Jade is strong, and Postnatal Realm cannot withstand it.

...

"Honey Jade Bee Royal Jelly?"

"What a treasure!"

Jiang Bianliu was pleasantly surprised.

This Honey Jade is already a Great Medicine-level treasure, capable of compensating for his previous risk-taking and True Yuan explosion deficit.

"Give me thirty jin."

Considering his own situation, Jiang Bianliu didn’t hold back with Yan Chuan, immediately asking for thirty jin, but soon seemed to think of something, looking at Yan Chuan: "You rescued Ying He, passed skill to Ying Jifeng, what’s your specific thought?"
