Good Fortune Immortal Road

Chapter 13: Dual Breakthrough

Shen Lang returned to his room, reflecting on what he had learned and seen in the past two months. It had gradually integrated into this world, where the magical spells were completely different from the technology of his previous life. Perhaps this was what he had wanted.

Putting an end to his contemplation, Shen Lang began to focus on the problem of cultivation. He was currently stuck at the threshold of the Meridian Opening stage. He had actually tried a few times before, but without success. The barriers within his meridians were too difficult to break through.

The purpose of opening the meridians was to establish a connection between heaven and earth, allowing for the continuous generation of mana during battles. Despite Shen Lang's abundant mana at the moment, using powerful spells would still deplete his mana. However, once the connection with heaven and earth was established, the speed of mana recovery would increase significantly.

Moreover, after opening the meridians, not only the dantian could absorb spiritual energy, but the meridians could as well. It would also enhance the physique and strengthen the physical body, allowing it to accommodate more mana. This would make the mana more spiritual and prevent it from being depleted as it currently did.

However, opening the meridians was not like in his previous life, where one would open the extraordinary meridians such as the Ren and Du meridians. Instead, there were thirty-six void meridians that needed to be opened. Only these meridians could absorb mana from the void and establish a connection with heaven and earth.

Shen Lang took a deep breath and gradually entered a state of emptiness and stillness. At this moment, he couldn't have any distractions. He began to internally observe the sea of mana within his dantian, carefully controlling the mana with his mind, moving it bit by bit into the void meridians.

The barrier of the first meridian had shown no response during the previous attempts. However, this time, Shen Lang was well-prepared. He had specifically read many experiences of predecessors who had attempted to break through the Meridian Opening stage.

Among them, there was one who had a sudden idea that it was difficult to open the meridians with ordinary mana in a normal state. What if the mana had a stronger explosive force and destructive power? Unfortunately, this predecessor did not succeed. This method had gained recognition from many elders, but unfortunately, entry-level disciples couldn't control their mana with such precision. They could only rely on a sufficient amount of mana in their dantian to break through the obstacles.

However, Shen Lang's Qi Sea in his dantian contained far more mana than cultivators of the same level. Yet, he still couldn't break through the barrier. This puzzled Shen Lang. Although he hadn't exerted his full strength in the previous attempts, he had still put in a tremendous amount of effort.

Recently, Shen Lang had come up with a new idea, which was why he had applied for seclusion to break through. Moreover, this time, Shen Lang was quite confident in his breakthrough.

Due to his mana far surpassing that of an ordinary person and his extensive practice of spells, Shen Lang's control over mana was something even Yang Ming praised. Therefore, Shen Lang thought of a way to enhance the explosive force and destructive power of his mana.

Shen Lang carefully controlled a stream of mana, then split it into two streams, condensing them into sharp needle shapes. He then entangled the two streams of mana together and controlled them to start rotating, forming a spiral shape. This was similar to a drilling tool used in his previous life, and it began to break through the barrier of the meridian.

As soon as Shen Lang made contact, he clearly felt a slight advancement in the spiral mana, and the originally solid barrier also loosened slightly, proving that his idea was not wrong. Shen Lang redoubled his efforts to continue opening up his meridians.

As expected by Shen Lang, this method did work, but it was not suitable for widespread use. Disciples with Shen Lang's level of control during the Qi Refining stage were truly one in a million.

Continuing to persistently break through the barriers, Shen Lang did not rush to break through all at once. This would cause significant damage to the Void Meridians. Although it consumed mana to progress slowly, Shen Lang's mana was currently exceptionally abundant, so he didn't mind this level of consumption.

One hour, two hours, slowly and gradually consuming bit by bit. Finally, a noticeable crack appeared in the barriers of the meridians. Seeing the breakthrough within reach, Shen Lang felt a hint of excitement.

Continuing to guide more mana into the breakthrough, at this time, Shen Lang's absorption speed of spiritual energy also unconsciously increased significantly. Seeing success within sight, Shen Lang didn't dare to be careless and continued to carefully control his mana.

It was unknown how long had passed, perhaps several hours or even several days, but finally, there was still one last obstacle. Gathering all his mana, Shen Lang finally pierced through with one final push.

With a loud bang, Shen Lang felt the spiritual energy from the entire room pouring into his body. This feeling was truly amazing, quickly replenishing all the mana he had previously consumed.

And at this moment, the flow of spiritual energy did not stop, it continued rushing into Shen Lang's body. If this continued, it would eventually cause an explosion of spiritual energy. Shen Lang was anxious and covered in sweat. What should he do now?

A flash of inspiration struck Shen Lang, and he exerted all his effort to control the spiritual energy, pouring it into his three Seeds of Good Fortune. How could such a vast amount of spiritual energy be wasted?

Almost visible to the naked eye, the spiritual energy surged into the three Seeds of Good Fortune. Soon, the Seeds of Good Fortune began to slightly expand. At this point, the absorption speed of spiritual energy became even more intense. A column of spiritual energy thicker than Shen Lang himself directly flowed into his body.

The three Seeds of Good Fortune quickly swelled up until they were the size of a fist. With a crack, a fissure appeared on the surface of the Seeds of Good Fortune. The spiritual energy, as if finding its home, urgently poured into the crack.

Soon, the crack grew larger and the outer shell of the Seeds of Good Fortune completely shattered. In Shen Lang's Sea of Consciousness, the Seed of Good Fortune turned into a circular jade disc, while in the Lower Dantian, it transformed into a large grinding plate. In the Qi Sea, it became an Azure Lotus.

The three newly formed Spirits of Good Fortune remained in their respective territories, quietly absorbing the surging spiritual energy. It seemed that no matter how much spiritual energy there was, it couldn't fill them completely.

Shen Lang curiously examined his three Spirit of Good Fortune, eager to know what kind of Divine Ability these three spirits would bring him.

After all, being the most perfect Spirit of Good Fortune, the Divine Ability it brings should also be the most Apex Level Divine Ability. Unfortunately, they are still absorbing spiritual energy to consolidate themselves, and Shen Lang has no way of knowing.

After a few more days, the frenzy of spiritual energy gradually calmed down, and the three Spirit of Good Fortune began to saturate with the absorbed spiritual energy. Looking at the three ancient and mysterious forms of Spirit of Good Fortune, Shen Lang felt very good.

Unexpectedly, there was still such a breakthrough before the big competition. It seems that this time, Shen Lang has a greater chance of achieving good results. Even if others have successfully nurtured Spirit of Good Fortune, no one would have expected that Shen Lang would gain three Divine Abilities at once.

This seclusion not only achieved the expected goal but also successfully nurtured Shen Lang's own Divine Ability. This greatly exceeded the original plan, but it was also a great thing.

Shen Lang did not rush to check the Divine Ability immediately. Instead, he carefully inspected the first Void Meridian he opened. The first meridian is the most important one, directly connecting the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, strengthening the speed of absorbing spiritual energy, and even refining his physical body.

Looking at the meridian continuously absorbing spiritual energy, with most of it flowing into the Qi Sea and a small part slowly merging into his body, Shen Lang clearly felt that his physical body had been strengthened by at least fifty percent after this breakthrough.

Not only the strength of the physical body but also the strength and speed have greatly increased. When casting spells, he can condense mana more quickly, almost reaching the speed of casting spells with just a thought, much faster than before.

These are the benefits brought by the breakthrough in cultivation. Next, it is important to study his own Divine Ability. This is even more crucial.

First, he started by examining the Azure Lotus in his Qi Sea. This Azure Lotus is a Twelfth Grade lotus platform. Shen Lang immersed his mind into the lotus platform, and soon the feedback from the lotus platform made Shen Lang's expression very exciting.

The current function of this lotus platform is only two-fold: absorbing spiritual energy and refining it. Not to mention the amazing absorption effect, the refinement is not just removing impurities from the spiritual energy, but infinitely purifying it into the most primitive form of spiritual energy.

What is the most primitive form of spiritual energy? It is the chaotic spiritual energy before the separation of heaven and earth, known as the ancestor of all spiritual energies. All spiritual energies are formed by the contamination of chaotic spiritual energy with other substances, and the most primitive form is this chaotic spiritual energy.

Shen Lang imagined that if one day all the mana in his body turned into chaotic spiritual energy, it would be an incredibly beautiful scene. Thinking of this, Shen Lang couldn't help but feel confident in his amazing lotus platform.

After being satisfied with the examination of the Qi Sea, although it is only an auxiliary effect, this effect is extremely amazing. It can purify the mana in the body into chaotic spiritual energy and has a very powerful absorption ability. It is simply perfect for Shen Lang, who has learned hundreds of spells.

With anticipation, I began studying the large mill in the middle dantian. Among the three Spirits of Good Fortune, the image of this large mill is the most ordinary. Unlike the other two, it lacks charm. It continuously rotates in the middle dantian, as if a real old ox is pulling the mill.

Delving into my divine consciousness, I began to carefully experience what kind of Divine Ability this large mill would bring me.

Soon, I was surprised again. The Divine Ability brought by this large mill is as simple as its appearance, with only one function: enhancement.

This enhancement can strengthen my body, enhance my spells, and even strengthen my Law Treasure. It can enhance everything that belongs to me.

This is another amazing Divine Ability. Just imagine, after my Divine Ability, Law Treasure, and body are all enhanced, I will be able to completely dominate battles at the same level.

Thinking of this, I almost drooled. These two Divine Abilities have brought me such great surprises. Although they are only auxiliary functions, I don't mind.

I can learn other powerful spell Divine Abilities on my own, but the innate Divine Ability brings comprehensive supplementation. It means that I will be much stronger than cultivators of the same level.

Even if there are people in this competition who have awakened their innate Divine Ability, even if they have mastered powerful attack-type Divine Abilities, I can learn powerful spells on my own and enhance them. In this way, others' Divine Abilities won't have much advantage over me.

Moreover, I still have a third innate Divine Ability. Slowly, I am filled with anticipation. Even if it is another auxiliary Divine Ability, I am willing, after all, the first two Divine Abilities are already incredible.

The first two Divine Abilities have already had a great impact on me. I eagerly checked the third Divine Ability, wondering what kind of improvement it would bring me.

After my divine consciousness entered, it took me a while to recover. This time, I was truly shocked. The Divine Ability within my sea of consciousness not only allows me to deduce spell Divine Abilities, but even allows me to deduce a glimpse of others' Divine Abilities. It includes not only Divine Ability spells, but also Law Treasures, elixirs, formations, and so on. Its deduction function is incredible and completely points me in the direction of progress.

Finally knowing my three innate Divine Abilities, I am extremely excited. This completely paves the way for me to reach higher levels. Overwhelmed with excitement, I couldn't help but burst into laughter.
