Chapter 240: Chapter 239: True Qi Value, 3000 Points! (Please Subscribe)

Chen Fan’s gaze fell on the realm column.

With 190 million potential points remaining, he planned to continue unlocking meridians.

The first benefit is that by opening the acupoints, the increase in true qi is the most significant, while the improvement in Constitution, Power, and agility seems more like a bonus.

However, even the legs of a mosquito are meat, right?

The second, and most important reason.

He possessed a large number of cultivation techniques that he had not yet had time to practice.

Although most of them are not body refinement techniques, when combined, they are still quite considerable.

Not to mention, there are techniques like the Dragon Elephant Wisdom Skill which greatly enhances strength attributes.

"The fifth meridian should be the Chong Meridian, right?"

Chen Fan recalled.

In the early stage of the Meridian Refining Realm, four meridians need to be unlocked, specifically the Yangwei Meridian, Yinwei Meridian, Yang Qiao Meridian, and Yin Qiao Meridian.

Unlocking all four of these meridians means a martial artist officially enters the mid stage of Meridian Refining.

In the mid stage, only two meridians need to be unlocked, the Chong Meridian, and the Dai Meridian.

The acupoints in the Chong Meridian are numerous, totaling 14.

The acupoints in the Dai Meridian are much fewer, only 9.

Even when combined, there are only 23 acupoints, which is less than half compared to the previous four meridians.

However, this does not mean that fully unlocking these two meridians is only half as difficult as unlocking the previous four.

According to the discussions among many Meridian Refining Martial Artists in the association, the difficulty of unlocking the Chong and Dai Meridians is two to three times that of the previous four!

If luck is not on your side, one acupoint might hold you back for several months!

If successful in unlocking these two meridians, one can enter the late stage of Meridian Refining, facing the greatest challenge among the eight extraordinary meridians, the Ren and Du Meridians!

Undoubtedly, these two meridians are the most difficult among the eight.

Take the Ren Meridian for example, it requires unlocking 24 acupoints, more than any of the previous six!

One can imagine how much true qi is needed to fully unlock the Ren Meridian.

However, it only has the second-highest number of acupoints, which meridian has the most?

Correct, it is the Du Meridian.

As the last meridian to be unlocked, it has the highest number of acupoints, 28!

Although it only has four more acupoints than the Ren Meridian, the amount of true qi needed to fully unlock it is at least twice that of the Ren Meridian!

Many martial artists in the late stage of Meridian Refining are stuck on one of the acupoints of this final meridian.

Fortunately, everything has two sides.

The more acupoints that need to be unlocked, the more primordial true qi will be enhanced, and the true qi increased by the heart method will also be more.

"As long as there are enough potential points, whether it’s the Chong, Dai meridians or the Ren, Du meridians, it won’t be a problem."

Chen Fan thought to himself.

He even had a hypothesis in his mind.

With his high spiritual power, even without relying on potential points, just using his internal true qi to impact the acupoints, he could potentially unlock the eight extraordinary meridians.

Of course, this method is far too slow and unnecessary.

With a mere thought, a surge of immense true qi suddenly erupted from within him.

In almost an instant, the first acupoint was broken through.

[Expended 15 million potential points, unlocked the Youmen Acupoint in the Chong Meridian]

[True Qi +49]

[Constitution +15]

[Power +16]

[agility +14]

Several pieces of information immediately appeared in his mind.

"True Qi increased by 49 points." Chen Fan estimated, considering the Chong Meridian has 14 acupoints, fully unlocking it would provide a primordial true qi of seven to eight hundred points.

That’s equivalent to the sum of the first three meridians.

He nodded, appreciating that the large expenditure of potential points indeed resulted in substantial improvements.

If he reaches the final Ren and Du Meridians, unlocking one meridian could potentially increase primordial true qi by over a thousand points.

In a flash, another substantial amount of potential points was invested.

[Expended 16 million potential points, unlocked the Tonggu Acupoint in the Chong Meridian]

[True Qi +50]

[Constitution +16]

[Power +14]

[agility +14]

...

Every time Chen Fan clicked, the number of potential points on the panel plummeted sharply.

[Expended 23 million potential points, unlocked the Si Man Acupoint]

[Constitution +13]

[Power +17]

[agility +16]

When he tried to unlock more meridians, there was no reaction within him.

Instead, a small line of text appeared in his mind,

[Insufficient Potential Points]

"So soon?"

Chen Fan’s mouth opened slightly, showing a look of surprise on his face.

He remembered not clicking many times, yet 190 million potential points were already gone.

Indeed, that was the case.

Currently, there were less than 20 million potential points remaining.

And to unlock the next Chong Meridian acupoint, 24 million potential points were needed.

"Just a little short."

Chen Fan felt a bit regretful.

He still had two to three bottles of Top-Grade Qi Blood Pills, which, collectively, provided just over 200 thousand potential points.

Clearly, it wasn’t enough.

"Forget it, I’ll save it for next time."

He shook his head.

Even if he managed to gather enough for the next 24 million, it would only unlock one more acupoint, leaving four acupoints remaining.

His gaze fell on the panel,

Realm: Mid Stage of Meridian Refining (0/2400 million)

True Qi: 3210/2140 (+50%)

Level: 29 (0/100 million)

Constitution: 0.98 million

Power: 1.02 million

agility: 0.79 million

Spirit: 187 thousand

Potential Points: 20 million

Experience Points: 2000

Even though only nine acupoints were unlocked, his primordial true qi had increased from more than 1600 to 2140 points.

The total true qi also surpassed 3000 points.

Chen Fan’s mouth curled into a slight smile, feeling that this was quite fortunate.

The Cloud-piercing Arrow Technique has two active skills.

One is the Wind-Chasing Arrow, which consumes 1000 points of true qi, doubling the arrow’s flight speed.

One is the Cloud-piercing Stone-shattering, which consumes 3000 points of true qi, tripling the arrow’s power.

Three times!

Now, he had an additional trump card.

Additionally, the higher the total true qi, the higher the activation level of the Burst martial art skill, considering the two limiting factors are internal true qi and spiritual power, and his spiritual power was more than sufficient.

"Not enough experience points, otherwise my internal true qi wouldn’t be just this amount."

Chen Fan sighed lightly.

Whatever it takes, he had to go out and hunt fierce beasts tomorrow.

As for today...

He glanced at his phone, it was already past six in the afternoon.

At this moment, there was a new message on his phone.

Curiously, Chen Fan clicked to check; it was an email from the Awakened Association.

Turns out, the Cloud Jade Fruit he ordered from the association had arrived at the Anshan City Awakened Association.

"Looks like my true qi will increase quite a bit again." Chen Fan smiled after reading.

Just wondering how much primordial true qi will be increased?

thousand points, honestly, it was pretty expensive.

But he didn’t immediately set off because there was still one matter to attend to first.

He took out another phone from the space items.

Clicked into the Martial Arts Association.

Immediately received numerous messages, emails from the headquarters, and private chat messages from individuals.

"Brother Chen, don’t forget to send over the modified pill formula. By the way, I’ve sent you an email with the contract drafted based on your previous instructions. Check it thoroughly, and sign if it’s correct."

It was a message from Chang Fei.

Then there were messages from Elder Tang, whose tone was much rougher and more frequent than Chang Fei!

"Boy, didn’t you say you’d send the pill formula? It’s almost an hour now."

"What’s going on? Two hours have passed. Recording the entire process wouldn’t take this long."

"Boy, what do you mean? It’s already past five. You haven’t finished it yet?"

Just as he finished reading, his phone vibrated again with new messages.

"Boy, it’s past six now. If you don’t send it over, I’ll chase you every hour until you do."

Chen Fan was speechless.

He immediately blocked Elder Tang, then sent a message to Chang Fei, assuring him that he would send the email in the evening.

Then, he opened the new emails.

The first one congratulated him on becoming a Meridian Refining Martial Artist, and mentioned rights and duties similar to what Xia Tian had told him.

He scanned through it quickly and clicked close, opening the second one, the contract mentioned by Chang Fei.

This time, he diligently read through it, knowing it concerned his own interests, and he had to take it seriously.

Fortunately, there was nothing wrong, so he signed it.

Having done that, he accessed the marketplace.

Indeed, the purchase privileges for Meridian Refining Realm items had been unlocked.

The item categories were similar to before, but there were additional ones, such as Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and special items.

Curious, Chen Fan clicked on the special items, and was stunned to see the first line.

Small-Sized Spatial Ring: Price 5 million contribution points, contains 1 cubic meter of internal space.

million contribution points?

He rubbed his eyes.

It turned out he wasn’t mistaken; the price was indeed 5 million contribution points.

"Is it much more expensive than the Awakened Association?"

Chen Fan mused.

Five million contribution points, equivalent to five hundred points, could buy five of such items at the Awakened Association.

However, upon reflection, it was understandable.

After all, these are two different organizations, and special items, only awakeners can create. Hence, rarity dictates the price, and price differences are expected.

Moreover, Martial Arts Association contribution points are indeed less valuable than Awakened Association points.

He scanned further; similar special items in the Martial Arts Association were generally priced at five times that of the Awakened Association.

In the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures section, items that enhance basic attributes were priced similarly to those in the Awakened Association but were scarce, with the highest price being 10 million contribution points, equivalent to items below a thousand points in the Awakened Association.

Chen Fan squinted his eyes.

He thought that once his contribution points increased, he could buy more.

Even if it only increases by a couple of hundred points, accumulated over time, it would still be significant.

The most important thing is that once the headquarters learns his pill formula, he can earn contribution points even without going out to hunt.

"Right, I need to check the price of the True Qi Pill formula and the herbs." Chen Fan quickly clicked on the elixir section.
