258: Li Dehai

"Captain Ye, you were looking for me?"

A middle-aged man with a fair amount of white hair looked at Ye Su somewhat uneasily.

This man had been transferred from the Magic City.

He was the one who had written out the Basic Staff Technique from memory last time, which had left his Mental Energy depleted.

If Ye Su hadn't given him a boost back then,

he would have died long ago from mental and physical exhaustion.

However, although he was restored, his white hair wouldn't change back; after all, it had turned white due to Mental Energy loss, and it wouldn't change unless there was a leap in his life essence.

"Your name is Li Dehai, right?"

Ye Su asked.

"Yes."

"Alright, your current Rank is..."

"Droplet Realm. My talent for cultivation is too poor; my blood qi is incredibly blocked and difficult to circulate. I only reached Luo Zhu by being pumped full of potions."

Ye Su leaned back.

The heavens really were something.

They gave the man unparalleled comprehension of Martial Arts, yet made his blood qi circulation so difficult.

"Come here, let me take a look,"

Ye Su said.

Difficult blood qi circulation didn't seem like an unsolvable problem.

After all, the meridian opening that existed in the Zhao Yi Realm was a great way to undergo a complete transformation!

[Awakening, Fine Rain, Luo Zhu, Streamline, Zhao Yi, Sea Convergence.]

Placing his hand on Li Dehai's hand,

the blood bead in Ye Su's Dantian spun, and a surge of blood qi rushed in.

It was violent yet cautious.

But it undoubtedly brought immense pain to the other party.

'Stagnant blood qi, difficult to direct—even if his meridians are truly opened, his cultivation speed will be extremely slow.'

'But... it's worth it!'

He withdrew his blood qi.

"Sit down first."

Then Ye Su began calling people over.

A short while later,

Mo Xiaoyu, Cui Hu, Li Qiankun, Ying Si, Qiu Qi, Mo Bosha, and the other divine weapon owners had all arrived.

Watching this scene, Li Dehai felt as if it were somewhat surreal.

This was currently the strongest combat power of Great Xia.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them the pillars of Great Xia.

"Come, meet Li Dehai. Back at the first research convention, he was the one from the Magic City who cracked the jade tablet Cultivation Technique and wrote it out from memory,"

Ye Su said;

"In our Great Xia, if we're talking about Martial Arts comprehension alone, this man is the absolute number one."

"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare..."

These words startled Li Dehai so much that he stood up.

Number one—how could a mere Droplet Realm be called number one?

No matter how good his Martial Arts comprehension was, his cultivation talent was abysmal; such a combination was lamentable.

"So—"

Cui Hu was curious, what was the plan?

"meridian opening!"

Ye Su said;

"We are going to open his meridians for him and push his cultivation directly into the Zhao Yi Realm."

"With the blessing of the Mandate of Heaven and Mo Xiaoyu present, we should be able to do it."

Everyone nodded.

Meanwhile,

Li Qing's side delivered a large quantity of potions.

These were used to replenish life essence and Spiritual Qi.

"However, before that, I still have to ask,"

Ye Su said;

"Li Dehai, are you willing?"

"You must know that once you reach that position, you will also have to sacrifice a lot. Even the rest of your life will be tied to Martial Arts; it should be a very dull existence."

He still had to ask.

If the man was unwilling, then there was nothing to be done.

Li Dehai's heart was shaking violently.

These pillars of Great Xia were actually going to forcibly open the blood qi meridians for a useless person like him.

Setting aside the cost,

just this lineup alone was incredible.

"I am willing!"

Li Dehai said;

"Everyone is working hard for survival; I am not willing to be mediocre in the back!"

"I often hate myself for having Martial Arts talent that my blood qi cannot support..."

"If I have this chance, then I would dare to die for all of you."

It was too painful.

Having Martial Arts talent meant he could easily understand and learn any Cultivation Technique.

Yet his blood qi simply couldn't support the execution.

It was like a chef who could create the most exquisite delicacies in the world, but happened to have a numb tongue and weak limbs.

"Don't die for us; do it for Great Xia,"

Ye Su said.

He also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then... let's get ready to begin."

Before starting, Ye Su still took out a piece of paper and handed it to everyone to look at.

After they finished reading,

their expressions changed drastically!

Because this paper explained why Ye Su was doing this.

The third Spiritual Qi recovery of the Blue Star.

An unprecedented type of mineral vein had appeared near the Imperial Capital;

a martial marrow mineral vein!

This was something that shouldn't have appeared.

One could even say it was something that would absolutely never appear.

But alas,

Ye Su was at Ascension Level Two and had Enfeoffed the Blue Star.

And the Blue Star was gluttonously devouring the mass of the Ice Giant Star; under such circumstances, this non-existent mineral vein was born.

Now, everyone finally understood why Ye Su was doing this.

A martial marrow mineral vein...

There would be no upper limit for individuals learning Martial Arts—heh.

The true Mandate of Heaven had begun!

"Everyone, sit. We only allow success; failure is not an option!"

"Understood!"

"Li Dehai, hold on!"

"Yes! I will definitely hold on!"

It began!

First,

Ye Su first triggered the Unity of Heaven and Man.

This was brought about by the White Head Great Profound Scripture, and simultaneously, the blue star will had been constantly watching Ye Su.

As long as he made this move, the blue star will would cooperate.

Instantly, everyone entered the Unity of Heaven and Man Realm.

Then,

the blood beads in everyone's Dantians began to spin.

Surges of blood qi began to diffuse outward.

With Mo Xiaoyu's blood qi as the primary force, as hers was the most gentle,

they thus—opened the meridians—within Li Dehai's body!

Forcibly constructing a circuit within the body was extremely painful.

If it were oneself,

one could expand it bit by bit.

But when others were helping you, it was far more brutal.

Although Li Dehai's life wouldn't be in danger under the nourishment of Mo Xiaoyu's healing power,

the pain was unavoidable!

However,

he endured it deathly still.

Human will was incredibly noble at this moment!

Currently, Mo Xiaoyu was in control, while Ye Su constantly injected potions into Li Dehai's body and guided the Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Stones to nourish his body.

All of this would go toward forming the blood bead and spirit bead in his Dantian.

The entire process was very smooth,

but it also consumed a great deal of time.

A full day's time.

When it was finished, everyone was mentally and physically exhausted.

Doing something like opening meridians for someone else was something one only needed to do once.

Basically, everyone was so tired they decided they would never do it a second time in their lives.

And beneath Li Dehai, there was a large puddle of sweat.

He was the one who had it hardest.

To have endured until this point was already very impressive.

When he opened his eyes again,

he looked at his own hands in disbelief.

The Zhao Yi Realm!

He had truly been forcibly pulled up.

However...

it was just the Realm.

His personal combat power was still abysmal.

Stagnant blood qi circulation was not something that could be changed by opening meridians.

After all, it was only opening meridians, not a complete transformation.

Still,

now that he had the Bloodline, this stagnation was only relative to people like Ye Su.

At least,

supporting various Martial Arts wouldn't be a problem at all.
