Whoosh!
The spiritual Qi here wasn’t very dense, since it was only a small provincial town. However, Su Han instantly gathered all of the spiritual Qi within several hundred meters, causing the spiritual Qi to become extremely dense and faint white mist to rise into the air.
Su Han may have been practicing the Fiend Dragon Emperor Art, but his cultivation was still insufficient. The circulating spiritual Qi took a whole hour to be fully absorbed into Su Han’s body.
At that moment, another shining golden meridian surfaced on Su Han’s naked body.
This was the second meridian!
Su Han did not feel any contentment, nor did he think it was a big deal to have opened two meridians in a row.
With Su Han’s cultivation experience from his past life, unlocking a meridian was the easiest and most basic thing for him. He could do it whenever he wanted to, and was not one to feel proud just for opening a couple of meridians.
“Out of one hundred and eight meridians, the ninth and the tenth meridians are the hardest among the first ten meridians. The first and the second meridians rank second after that. As for the third to the eighth, well, they are comparatively easy,” Su Han mumbled.
He had taken a lot of wrong paths in his past life, and naturally had a lot of experience. He revealed a slight smile, and the Dragon Vein Emperor Art’s circulation sped up once again!
Thump!
A thump sounded from within Su Han’s body under such acceleration. An indescribably astonishing swallowing force also fiercely burst out of him!
The spiritual Qi within several dozen meters was swallowed dry before starting to gather again. The same was true for several hundred meters away. Now, Su Han was devouring the spiritual Qi from thousands of meters away.
Several thousand meters, or several kilometers, was huge. The area of the entire Su Estate was only a few dozen kilometers wide. At this moment, Su Han swallowed a tenth of the spiritual Qi of the entire area at once.
At this instant, many of the Su Clan’s disciples noticed the irregularity. Some of them were cultivating and suddenly noticed all the spiritual Qi that had been continuously flowing disappear within an instant.
“What’s going on?”
“Where did all the spiritual Qi go?”
“I have run out of spiritual Qi here too.”
Shock and suspicion spread. They could only feel that the spiritual Qi was lost, but not where it had gone.
As for Su Han, when all the spiritual Qi gathered around him, the whole room suddenly became dripping wet.
This was spiritual Qi liquefaction!
All the spiritual Qi turned into water droplets. Like rain falling from the sky, the liquid spiritual Qi rained on the whole room and everything in it.
Su Han’s expression remained still and his eyes were tightly shut. The third and fourth meridian within his body also lit up after he swallowed all the spiritual Qi.
In the context of the Dragon Martial Continent, Su Han had opened four dragon veins!
However, this was still not the end.
With the Su Clan’s level of spiritual Qi density, Su Han did not hope to open any meridians after the eighth. However, he was determined to open the fifth to the eighth.
“Swallow!”
At a certain moment, Su Han suddenly opened his mouth.
The Dragon Vein Emperor Art sped up even more, almost at the limit of the circulating speed that Su Han was currently capable of.
The room which had been dripping wet now dried up once again. The droplets on the vase, ceiling, and floor instantly vanished, as if they had evaporated into thin air.
Bang! Bang!
A dull noise came from Su Han’s body. With it, another two meridians flickered goldenly underneath Su Han’s flesh.
“The sixth.”
Su Han took a deep breath. The room still had many spiritual Qi droplets. He didn’t let any of them go and absorbed them all.
The seventh meridian also opened. When it came to the eighth, there was still a flash of golden light, but only half the eighth meridian opened.
“The spiritual Qi is insufficient already.”
Su Han frowned. Then he muttered for a bit. Finally, he spread out his palm and slammed it on his chest.
Pound!
With the slam, Su Han instantly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
A suction kept the blood from falling to the ground. A misty string of blood spread out and then returned to Su Han’s body.
This blood mist was the spiritual Qi which had remained in the body when the original Su Han tried to open the eighth dragon vein.
Although the dragon veins broke and all the cultivation was lost, there was still a lot of spiritual Qi remaining in the dragon veins. Su Han just recycled them as though they were trash.
As for the remaining blood, all of it turned black and a trace of foul stench dispersed.
Hum!
Another humming sound appeared, and with the help of the misty blood, the eighth meridian finally opened!
In the context of the Martial Dragon Continent, this meant that Su Han had opened his eighth dragon vein. Compared to the peak of ten, there were only two more to go and he could definitely be called a genius.
“You were once called a genius and became trash because of an accident. I will now recast your body in gold in your name and help you… shock the mortal realm!”
Su Han’s eyes opened. He got up and mumbled a couple of words. The eight flickering golden veins gradually dimmed.
“Unfortunately, the spiritual Qi of this land is too thin. Also, with my current cultivation, I wouldn’t date to swallow so recklessly. Otherwise, opening the ninth meridian wouldn’t be a hard task.”
Shaking his head with slight regret, Su Han sat on the bed once again. He decided he wanted to search through the memories of his past life and see which techniques the current him was able to learn from.
Bang!
However, at this moment, the door was suddenly kicked open with a bang.
It was indeed kicked open, because Su Han had locked the door from the inside. Furthermore, the force was so strong that it made the two doors fall flat on the ground.
Su Han frowned and lifted his head to look.
An extremely beautiful woman entered Su Han’s sight. She had purple hair that hung down her back. Her delicate features seemed as if they were drawn by heaven, and her pale white skin looked like it had a glossy reflection under the rays of the sun. Her tall and pretty figure also emanated attractiveness.
However, the woman’s expression seemed somewhat unsightly, like she was extremely angry.
“So you’re Su… Ah!”
The woman spoke out of reflex, as if she had long prepared what she was about to say. However, she saw Su Han’s naked body on the bed without a shred of clothing before she could finish her sentence.
In that instant, that woman saw everything on Su Han’s body, except for his back.
“Shameless!” the woman yelled.
Su Han did not pay her any attention, but instead slowly got up and walked to his dresser to grab a garment. He finally said indifferently, “Who are you?”
“Put on your clothes first!” The woman’s teeth clenched and rattled.
“I have put them on already,” said Su Han.
The woman’s tightly shut eyes only now started to open a crack. Seeing that Su Han had really put on his clothes, she was now relieved and said coldly, “To think that my sister thought of you as an honorable man whom she must marry… Now I know that you’re a dirty and shameless man who doesn’t even put on his clothes in daylight!”
As soon as she said those words, Su Han immediately knew who the other party was.
The Xiao Clan’s first daughter, Xiao Yuhui!
