Tian Zhuo continued to drive while Tian Cheng remained silent. He couldn’t get out of the fact that Lin Fan was already a First-grade Three-star Awakened Being.
He thought that he was already very fast. He had clearly been cultivating all along, and his family background was already considered one of the best in Wind City.
At this moment, he felt embarrassed that he had declared his strength in front of Lin Fan. His heart was flustered.
When he was still in school, he felt that Lin Fan merely had grades slightly higher than that of his.
He would definitely surpass Lin Fan in the future.
But at this moment, facing Lin Fan, this was the first time he truly felt that he might not be as good as Lin Fan.
Tian Zhuo glanced sideways at Tian Cheng, who was sitting in the front passenger seat looking very depressed. He sighed in his heart. Originally, he didn’t plan to educate Tian Cheng so early. He wanted to allow him to be happy for a period of time before telling him some things.
However, it just so happened that he bumped into Lin Fan today and managed to probe Lin Fan’s strength. After which, he thought that the sooner he could correct his son’s mentality, the better it would be.
In reality, this was not a sudden impulse. He knew about what happened to Guo Wentao yesterday. After all, he was from the same circle in Wind City. He knew the actual situation. With the strength of a Second-grade Five-star, he had surpassed Lin Fan by 13 minor realms. Yet, he still succumbed under Lin Fan’s talent skill.
Of course, he did not mention this to Tian Cheng. If he did, it would be a huge blow to him. He did not want his son to lose all hope.
At least for now, after knowing that Lin Fan was a First-grade Three-star, it could inspire him to work harder.
It was all for his son.
As for Lin Fan, he didn’t care about this little episode at all. He was still heartbroken. Shouldn’t he have hugged a rich lady’s thigh?
He really hoped that Han Miaotong would come again. This time, he would just agree.
After returning home, he took out the ten drops of demon blood essence and directly absorbed them through the system. He gained another 1,000 star power points and with this new addition, he had a total of 1601 star power points now.
As for his physical assets, he still had 4323 yuan in his bank card. This was something that he had slowly saved up. This was Lin Fan’s own money. He couldn’t even afford a single drop of blood essence.
Then, Lin Fan began meditating to recover his state and continue breaking through.
It took him three hours to reach his peak condition.

Talent Skill: Pregnant Gaze (2/100) (+) [Allow the target to experience the pain of giving birth for 30 seconds. Damage Dealt:10~55)

Without any hesitation, Lin Fan chose to continue increasing his strength.
+1!
+2!
+3!
…
Within a short period of time, his star powers had reached a value of 599, the limit of a peak First-grade Three-star.
Because of his rapid growth, Lin Fan could feel a slight tearing pain when the star powers flowed into his meridians on the way to his third acupoint.
Lin Fan’s main intention was to try and see if by increasing the flow of star powers, he could decrease the extra consumption.
In the end, he discovered that it did not happen. On the contrary, the extra consumption had increased by a little. He had consumed a total of 25 wisps of star powers. However, it could also be because the acupoint was located at the top of his head, causing it to consume even more star power.
His star powers soon reached the third acupoint, which was the acupoint that he was about to open, the Shentian Acupoint.
The Shentian Acupoint was located on the head. It was directly above the hairline by 0.5 inches. It was located at the junction of the left and right forehead muscles, at the front of the brain.
Lin Fan recovered his depleted star powers and circulated them around the Shentian Acupoint. He was preparing to open the acupoint directly. At the same time, he thought, “This acupoint belongs to the Du Meridian. The first two acupoints belong to the Ren Meridian. Is this a coincidence? There doesn’t seem to be any chinese doctors in this world. How strange.”
Lin Fan, who had just come to this world, didn’t pay attention to this at first. After all, even if he was sick, he would usually just take medicine. Furthermore, Lin Fan’s body was good and he had almost never been sick before. Later on, when he was in high school attending lectures that taught how a First-grade Awakened Being could cultivate, he was introduced to the concept of nodes. In this world, acupoints were referred to as the human body’s nodes.
The First-grade required one to open the nine great nodes of the human body. After awakening, opening one of the nodes represents an increase of a minor realm. After one opened all the nodes and linked them together, one would become a Second-grade Awakened Being.
The first three nodes were the Qihai Acupoint, the Zigong Acupoint, and the Shentian Acupoint. According to the concept of traditional chinese medicine, the first two acupoints were part of the Ren Meridian, and the one that was about to open up was one of the acupoints of the Du Meridian.
When one embarked on the path of cultivation, they would be further and further away from ordinary people. In his previous life, the Ren and Du Meridians were considered godly in martial arts novels. If one could open up the Ren and Du Meridians, one would instantly become a top expert.
In his previous life, the importance of it had been widely promoted.
And in this life, he did not manage to find any chinese medicine concepts on the internet, nor did he find any information on acupoints. Instead, there were quite a number of erotic things that appeared along with his search. Acupoints in this world were related to many things!
Therefore, when Lin Fan thought of this, he wondered if he would be completely different if he opened up both the Ren and Du meridians.
Of course, Lin Fan didn’t dare to try it recklessly. The main reason was that he had just become an Awakened Being. There was a limit to what he could learn about Awakened Beings in high school. Most of what he learned was just history as well as some information during the beginner stage.
He was still at the stage of opening up his body’s nodes. He would only be able to deduce more secrets when he came into contact with more information regarding the cultivation of Awakened Beings.
When Lin Fan thought of this, he retracted all of his thoughts.
Right now, the most important task was to open his acupoint!
+1!
600!
Star powers started to flow towards the Shentian Acupoint. As Lin Fan had expected, the resistance was slightly greater than the first two acupoints, and the extra consumption of star powers was also greater.
597/600!
594/600!
591/600!
…
After opening two acupuncture points, he already had some experience. Without any hesitation, Lin Fan immediately replenished his star powers and maintained a steady output.
He had to make sure that his star power value remained below 600, to prevent it from overflowing into his meridians and even cause some of it to be lost. This would achieve the best effect and minimal wastage.
Furthermore, what Lin Fan was trying to break through was the corner of the acupoint. Compared to the center, this point was much easier to break through. At the start, the key of breaking open the acupoint was to first tear open a crack, before continuing to increase and stabilize the channel.
Lin Fan couldn’t care less about the depletion of his star power, nor could he feel any pain in his heart. All he could do was continue increasing it.
Fifteen breaths!
A thin crack was finally formed. Star power poured into the crack like a dam that had been opened. At the same time, a special energy was fed to his body and spiritual energy.
Lin Fan crazily clicked (+) and increased the upper limit of his star power value.
+1!
+2!
+3!
+4!
…
The flow of star powers into the Shentian Acupoint was steady and endless. As the crack grew bigger, the flow of star powers also increased.
The amount of star power flowing into the acupoint also had to be readjusted. Each time, it would be added to the limit, achieving the best result. Finally, the Shentian Acupoint opened up and his star power managed to make a full circulation.
First-grade, Four-star!
After stopping the increase, he controlled the star powers in his three acupuncture points and his lower dantian to continuously travel back and forth. This time, he also circulated ten times before stopping.
