Celestial Weapons Artificer - 2 Chapter 2
“Spirit Arts of Invigorated Meridian?” mumbled Tang Huan to himself.
Not long after looking through the remnant memories, Tang Huan found the technique the old blacksmith taught him.
This “Spiritual Art of Invigorating Meridian” was said to be a very good low level entrance cultivation technique. There were nine spiritual veins in the human body, and he only needed to open one. He could absorb the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth and then refine it to produce true qi. The more spirit veins he opened, the more true qi he would be able to accumulate within his body.
According to the Yakruin Continent’s martial system, opening three spirit veins would allow one to be a first step Martial Disciple, opening six would allow one to be a second step Martial Disciple, and opening nine would allow one to be a third step Martial Disciple.
After that, the cultivator would be able to condense a Spiritual Wheel in his Dantian and advance to a Rank 4 Martial Master. Of course, to the current Tang Huan, that was still an extremely distant matter. His top priority right now was to try opening the first spirit vein.
In regards to this matter, Tang Huan himself wasn’t very confident.
The original owner of this body had been cultivating the “Spirit Art of Invigorating Meridian” since he was six years old. Even after a full ten years, he still hadn’t been able to open a single spirit vein.
This kind of aptitude was indeed very ordinary.
“… There was a spirit in the heaven and earth that was derived from energy, an invisible spirit energy that connected to the divine vein. “Spiritual Pulse, Human Body Meridians ”
Tang Huan immediately sat down on the ground with his legs crossed, eliminating all distracting thoughts and calming his heart.
Very quickly, Tang Huan followed the guidance of the “Spirit Arts of Invigorating Meridian”, his ten fingers constantly changing positions, familiar and quick. The original owner of the body had been practicing this kind of entry-level cultivation technique for ten years. Although he had never been able to learn anything, he was still very familiar with the cultivation technique’s incantations and hand signs.
“Buzz!”
In the next moment, Tang Huan felt as if an intense vibration sounded out in his mind, following that disturbance, a huge red ancient cauldron suddenly appeared in his mind.
The cauldron was circular, with two ears on top and three feet on the bottom. Mysterious amcient looking patterns were carved into the sides of the cauldron. Once it appeared, Tang Huan felt a kind of ancient and distant aura from era’s past. It was as if it had finally awakened from its slumber after experiencing countless years.
“Isn’t this my Crafting Furnace?”
Tang Huan was slightly taken aback.
Back then, when he had obtained the ancient sword technique, he had even obtained an crafting furnace. In the end, when the sword was at it’s last stage about to be completed, the cauldron had sucked him dry of all his blood which caused his death and the events that followed. Logically speaking, the furnace should still be in his private crafting Workshop, but why did it appear in his mind now?
Tang Huan was extremely confused, but before he could fully understand the intricacies of the matter, the various patterns on the cauldron seemed to have come to life as it continued to spin at a very fast speed, and in his mind, it released countless number of fiery red lights. Following which, strands of cool Qi were attracted, and gathered around his body from all directions.
After carefully looking at the cauldron, Tang Huan could vaguely makeout that the patterns on the surface of the cauldron seemed to be condensing into four huge runes.
“Nine Yang Divine Furnace?” That name inexplicably came to his mind.
The doubt in Tang Huan’s heart grew even more, But he never stopped running the cultivation techniques incantation and hand sign, following which the spiritual qi of Heaven and Earth rushed into his body and gathered in the cauldron.
Based on the body’s original owners, ten year cultivation experience, Tang Huan knew that those auras rushing into the cauldron should be the so-called spiritual energy.
A moment later, the spiritual energy that had gathered in the cauldron turned into a huge current, roiling and roaring out of the cauldron. Following the change in Tang Huan’s hand techniques, the spiritual energy quickly flowed through his body, and in the blink of an eye, the spirit vein that had stayed dormant in his was quickly cleared of all the impurities.
“So fast?” said Tang Huan to himself.
He stared at himself, tongue-tied, unable to believe that this was true.
The original owner of this body had cultivated the “Spiritual Art of Invigorating Meridian” for more than ten years yet never made any progress. But he was able to open a spirit vein in such a short amount of time?
Tang Huan couldn’t help but start to cultivating and appreciate the feeling of the warm Spiritual qi running through his body.
The comfortable feeling that was akin to drinking nectar persisted. It was obvious that the connection to the spirit vein just now wasn’t an illusion. Now, he could clearly feel where the spirit vein in his body in his body was located. It was not like before, where he could only imagine its existence in his mind.
“It must be the effect of the ‘Nine Yang Divine Furnace’.” said Tang Yuan.
After a short moment of surprise, Tang Huan was beaming with joy.
The moment his spirit vein was opened up, he stopped cultivating the “Spirit Arts of the Invigorated Meridian” due to extreme shock. The cauldron in his mind was still there, but it also stopped rotating at the same time.
The main body was still there in the same form it has always been in, only the body’s soul was different. However, the enormous difference between the two was like Heav and Earth. He was no over confident fool, he knew what his capabilities were which made Tang Huan have no choice but to associate this miracle with that strange ancient “Nine Yang Divine Furnace” in his mind.
He even felt that the main reason his soul did not dissipate after his death, why it had even been reborn in the yakruin Continent was most likely because of the “Nine Yang Divine Furnace”.
“Eh? “That’s not right!”
Turning his attention back to his body, Tang Huan suddenly gasped, his face filled with surprise, “The spirit vein that was just cleared, why is it so big?”
According to the old blacksmith as well as the information the youth had gathered, when the first spirit vein had just been connected, it was supposed to be even smaller than a chopstick’s mouth.
After that, the spirit veins would become bigger and bigger with continuous cultivation, and the spirit veins that had been opened would also gradually expand as time went on. Finally, all nine of the spirit veins would become as big as two finger sized branch. Of course, as his cultivation level increased, his spirit vein would also continue to increase.
Of course not everyone is constricted by this law.
There are some people with exceptional aptitude. When their first spirit vein is cleared, they would be slightly larger than an ordinary person. Whether it was bigger by ten to twenty percent, or larger by thirty to forty percent would depend their aptitude But for Tang Huan, the first spirit vein he connected with was already bigger than even the exceptional standard.
“Because of the Nine Yang Divine Furnace again?”
After a long while, Tang Huan finally snapped out of his daze.
To have such a large Spiritual vein on the first try was indeed quite inconceivable. However, having such a large Spiritual vein was not a bad thing, but rather a great thing.
The larger the spirit vein, the greater the amount of true qi that could be stored within the body, and the stronger the combat strength of the cultivator.
Tang Huan quickly calmed himself down and continued to cultivate the “Spirit Arts of the Invigorated Meridian”. As expected, the “Nine Yang Divine Furnace” in his mind became bright and vibrant once again as it quickly rotated. Not long after, strands of spiritual energy began to enter his body.
This time, Tang Huan’s senses were even clearer.
It was true that the spiritual energy was initially attracted by the hand seal before entering his body, but the moment the spiritual energy touched Tang Huan’s body, it was immediately absorbed by the “Nine Yang Divine Furnace”. As the furnace spun non-stop, the spirit energy was slowly refined into a warm and harmonious true qi and circulated within the newly opened spirit vein.
