Chapter 152: Chapter 92: Purple Emperor Meridian and Innate Divine Ability_2

The texts on the stone wall still exist to this day, Xu Qing suspects that these things cannot be destroyed by ordinary means, and attempting to destroy them deliberately could even bring trouble upon oneself.

He wasn’t even worried about others learning from it.

Because in the Xuantian Visualization Image, in the sequence of illuminating the first Hidden Veins, the sequence of the three main veins is the highest, and the Ziwei Meridian is the chief of the three main veins.

This is also a case of blessings and misfortunes being intertwined.

Being the highest in sequence also means that under the same level of Divine Soul, the main life chart of the Ziwei Meridian naturally suppresses others who practice Xuantian Visualization Image.

Moreover, after opening the first Hidden Vein, one will also acquire their own Innate Divine Ability.

The Innate Divine Ability of the Purple Emperor Meridian is also the strongest among those in the Xuantian Visualization Image.

"Even the Xuantian Taoist himself mentioned in his autobiography that the first Hidden Vein he illuminated was only the Taiwei Meridian. Although the Innate Divine Ability corresponding to this meridian is known to be the most mysterious and unpredictable among all the meridians, overall, it is still slightly inferior to the Ziwei Meridian."

Xu Qing could even feel from the text the Xuantian Taoist’s regret of not being able to illuminate the Ziwei Meridian first.

Therefore, after Xu Qing illuminated the "Ziwei Meridian", even he himself was surprised.

However, his Lifebound Star being the Ziwei Star is also a considerable hidden danger. If he encounters a powerful Feng Shui Master, and they decipher his Lifebound Star, Xu Qing’s fate could be very grim.

Emperors of all dynasties have been very wary of those with Ziwei Life Charts, preferring to err on the side of execution rather than letting them go.

In fact, having a Ziwei Life Chart does not mean one will definitely succeed in a rebellion, but you also can’t guarantee they won’t succeed.

Matters like divinations, emperors would rather believe them than take any risk at all.

This hidden danger further solidified Xu Qing’s determination to accumulate strength.

He couldn’t just sit around and hope for good luck, that nothing would happen because of this.

...

...

After descending the mountain, he rode the Fire Cloud Horse back to the city, to the Mei Xiang Cottage.

"Uhm, did you forget something?" Su Lianqing asked weakly.

"Oh, the Black Fox Robe, right." Xu Qing pulled off the fox robe that was draped over Su Lianqing.

Su Lianqing shivered for a moment, then coughed, "The antidote."

Xu Qing chuckled and took out a case of rouge.

Su Lianqing caught it, bewildered. Was this supposed to be the antidote?

Without a word, Xu Qing donned his black robe and rode away on his horse.

"Making me guess again!" Su Lianqing stomped her feet in frustration. Who was really the woman here, always making others guess, just like the current Emperor.

Speaking of which, the Emperor nowadays enjoys playing the riddler too much, always making people guess his thoughts to demonstrate his unfathomability.

Back at the Mei Xiang Cottage, Su Lianqing tried a bit of the rouge. Regardless, if she was really poisoned, this would definitely be the antidote.

If not, it would still be a kind gesture from Young Master Xu.

She could only console herself with this thought.

Actually, another idea popped into her head, wondering whether she should sneak a peek at that cave.

But then she recalled Xu Qing’s usual way of doing things. If she sneaked in and there really was a benefit, wouldn’t Xu Qing have anticipated that? Besides, she had too many secrets in Xu Qing’s hands, and any slight mischief would only lead to her demise.

With that thought, Su Lianqing extinguished the idea.

...

...

Xu Qing returned home and unusually took a hot bath, even asking Qiu Xiang to add plum blossoms to the hot water for a comfortable soak.

He wasn’t worried about Su Lianqing sneaking off without his knowledge, as her Qi-Blood wouldn’t even support the practice of a single branch meridian.

"Without the Golden Light Spell, cultivating the Xuantian Visualization Image would only end up harming oneself." Xu Qing thought to himself in secret.

After easing his mind, he again felt the urge to cultivate the "Xuantian Visualization Image."

The feeling of the Divine Soul’s growth was indeed irresistibly pleasant.

Immersing himself in it, he felt as if he were about to ascend to immortality, and such a sense of ethereal delight was hard to reject.

Xu Qing firmly suppressed the thoughts in his heart.

He had the bronze mirror for observing himself and knew what the appropriate progress should be.

Frequent cultivation of the Xuantian Visualization Image would now do more harm than good.

Even a momentary Divine Soul growth would only bring irreversible damage to the physical body.

"To know when to stop is to be secure, only with calmness can one ponder, and with thoughtful deliberation, one attains."

Xu Qing reflected on the sage’s words, which indeed remained refreshing with every read.

The Daoist Scripture also states, to be content is to suffer no disgrace, to know when to stop is to encounter no danger.

He settled the restlessness in his Divine Soul yearning to cultivate the Xuantian Visualization Image, making it stable, serene, and wise.

He lay there in the bathing tub, surrounded by the faint scent of plum blossoms, until the water cooled before getting up.

For the next ten days, Xu Qing followed a routine to cultivate his Divine Soul with the Xuantian Visualization Image, supplemented by reading and Martial Arts Training; he progressively opened the Purple Emperor Meridian step by step.

With the help of Qi Blood Powder and Pei Yuan Pills, his progress was not slow.

The only pity was that these substances would soon run out.

"If I did not cultivate the Xuantian Visualization Image, these elixirs would be enough for my Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist to reach 150 moves, leaving only 56 moves to fully master it. But at the current rate of consumption, I estimate they will only sustain me until around 120 moves. However, Xu Qing could clearly feel that his Divine Soul was not far from reaching the next Realm of ’Exorcism’, and his Bright Strength had also advanced to the upper level. It seems to be the enhancement of the Divine Soul, Xu Qing distinctly sensed that he was about to comprehend the Dark Strength in these few days."

Such speed of progress was already very fast.

Unfortunately, resources couldn’t keep up.

He was still severely lacking in nourishing items like elixirs.
