Chapter 1029: Rend and Rise

Forget breathing; even their very thoughts seemed to have exploded at this critical moment. It could hardly be suppressed, let alone recover to the repose.


The potency of the medicinal pill was unbelievably overwhelming.


Although Sun Mingxiu was astonished by the Emerald Cloud Pill’s strength, he was not perturbed. He instantly recognized that his organs would actually be charred if he allowed the medicinal strength to charge on its own will. Having that thought in mind, he reacted immediately.


The pill’s potency was imposing, far exceeding his limits. The mystical Qi Sun Mingxiu, who had cultivated with all his might, had only overcome the rushing force for a brief moment before it swept right over him!


Horrified, Sun Mingxiu was close to submitting to his fate. He acknowledged that he was about to be shattered by the frantic wave of medical strength, only to feel a sudden constant stream of energy moving, parrying the powerful medicine.


It was his master.


His master’s mystical Qi that was almost as sharp as the sword Qi no longer stayed dormant in his meridians. It rapidly countered the medicinal potency and led the berserk stream of energy into his dantian at a relatively stable speed. From Sun Mingxiu’s dantian, it refluxed and gushed towards a meridian route that the boy had never explored.


All this time, Sun Mingxiu had thought that his master looked icy, like a sword mountain that stood eternally, and would hardly show any warmth to anyone. It was as if he was a sword himself, emotionless and merciless, cold-blooded and steel-hearted.


He and his junior siblings had always been more afraid than respectful to their master.


Nevertheless, Sun Mingxiu felt the love and concern from an elder at that moment. It was a thought of wholeheartedness and disregard of personal damage as long as the disciple managed to accomplish what was needed; the sentiment was apparent and clear!


Sun Mingxiu’s body trembled as two droplets of tears seeped from his eyes.


He then heard his master’s stern voice, “What are you thinking about? Follow my mystical Qi quickly – are you hoping that I’ll cultivate for you your entire life?”


“Yes, master.”


Sun Mingxiu sobbed his answer and did not dare slow down; he gave it his all as he circulated his mystical Qi to tackle the intense force of the medicine.


This was a critical juncture.


His master was using himself to help him pass this stage. If he were to fail, his master would inevitably suffer severe harm! He must not lose his focus nor fail!


Whether it was for himself or his master, he must not fail – he had to succeed in pushing through!


The stream of energy formed from the combination of the five medicinal pills surged up from the dantian and kept meeting an opposing force from the meridians along its way. The meridians that were still sealed, that did not have mystical Qi passing through yet, became layers of insurmountable barriers.


In spite of it, the obstacles were brittle against the raging strength. As the energy charged through seven to eight barriers continuously, its momentum did not seem to be reduced. Other than mystical Qi that began to flow where the energy surged, there were also crushed meridians.


The medicinal strength kept pushing forward, following the fixed route, but it was external energy, possessing only the faculty to charge forth. At most, it would change its direction from a much stronger force, but it was impossible that this existing energy could heal the damaged meridians.


This was exactly one of the biggest drawbacks regarding consuming the five spiritual herbs, including the Emerald Cloud Pill. This stage itself was a major factor in the twenty percent success rate that Dong Qitian had mentioned before.


When the final step, the Emerald Cloud Pill, was ingested, all five spiritual herbs would come into effect instantly and form a powerful tide of medicinal strength. A slight mistake could cause the meridians of the person taking the pills to explode and be rebuffed by the mystical Qi, failing the process instantly.


In fact, Sun Mingxiu had nearly failed, but Shi Wuchen’s timely intervention to buffer the energy’s glare and guide it into the child carried them through the crisis.


This stage’s level of difficulty was the lowest, however, as the consequent charge of the medicinal potency towards sealed meridians would be the actual challenge. Failure could happen in the blink of an eye.


Normally, the subject ingesting the medicinal pills could not leave the damaged meridians as they were, despite assistance from their elders to guide the medicinal flow. The damage from the medicinal surge had to be healed speedily or else the circulation of the individual’s mystical Qi could possibly deal second-time damage to these meridians. It was perilous and the subject’s cultivation base must certainly be limited; how could rapid healing be done? This issue itself was already impractical.


The reason Dong Qitian was so confident about Hu Xiaofan being able to complete the procedure safely was none other than his Innate Spiritual Marrow that could heal himself swiftly during this part of the process. The possibility of a failure of the rapid healing process was nonexistent to the boy!


As Sun Mingxiu was struggling at this stage, he worked hard to repair his meridians as well, but the effort was futile with the minimal effect reaped. He could even foresee that his meridians would be completely destroyed not too long later and what this meant would be an abortion of his cultivation method, possibly even a self-eruption!


Not only had Sun Mingxiu encountered the situation, but there was also no exception among the top ten disciples. The Demiurge-Flawed Ten who were guarding the children were, of course, well aware of the circumstance, but their mystical Qi was fully occupied with guiding the medicinal strength’s route; they could hardly be distracted. In addition, their mystical Qi cultivation base was proficient but their attributes were not on repairing and recovery. Even if they could divert a portion of their effort to help, it was an external force; it was basically of insignificant effect to repair their disciples’ meridians.


Helpless, the group did not notice a powerful force slipping into the disciples’ bodies gently and quietly repairing the shattered meridians… At the same time that they were being healed, the crushed meridians were slowly coming into shape… forming an even stronger passage.


What was going on?


The Demiurge-Flawed Ten had realized the raging extent of the medicinal potency right when they came into contact with it. When such an overwhelming force washed over the meridians, those that were initially clear could endure it, but the meridians that had yet to be activated and greeted by the mystical Qi could only be charged into fragments. This way, what was the use of gushing through the sealed meridians? Not only would they be useless afterward, but they would also be severely damaged and might even affect the cultivation method.


What should they do?


The situation was out of the Demiurge-Flawed Ten’s capacity. They were extremely anxious, but they were powerless!


Luckily, they recalled in time what Yun Yang had said, that they must not stop no matter the situation, that they must persist to the end. Out of confidence towards Yun Yang, they gritted their teeth and continued guiding the medicinal force.


Then, the men found out with delightful surprise that their disciples’ broken meridians were actually being repaired and reshaped at an incredibly high speed. The current crisis was no longer an issue!


“Could this be the so-called rend and rise? Is my disciple fated as such?”
