534: Chapter 534 Meridian-Opening Pill!

Nirvana Spear Intent covered the tip of the spear!

Black Nirvana Qi flowed around the spear tip, emitting a terrifying Concept of all things returning to silence!

Shadows of the spear multiplied and the Spear Light flickered, blanketing the sky as they surged toward Cang Yuan!

Cang Yuan could only hold his halberd and struggle to defend!

He gripped the halberd with both hands, desperately parrying Qin Yan's attacks, but with every strike he blocked, the web of his thumb split a bit further and his blood boiled!

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

He was beaten back repeatedly, completely unable to fight back!

His steps faltered, his body swayed, and his face was as pale as paper!

In the audience, the various beings were greatly shocked to see Qin Yan's performance!

"This Qin Yan's strength is terrifying!"

"Heavens, is he really at the fifth rank late stage? This combat power is even fiercer than a sixth rank!"

"A Domain! Third-Grade Spear Intent! Dual Cultivation in Qi Refining and Body Refining! This foundation is too terrifying!"

"Ah! My tiangang points are gone! I just bet on Cang Yuan to win!" a spectator clutched his head and screamed in agony, his face full of despair.

"That's what you get for calling me stupid!" a young man nearby laughed triumphantly. "I bet on Qin Yan and got more than double the payout! Hahaha!"

"Jie jie jie, I also bet on Qin Yan. I've made a fortune this time!"

"Wuwuwu, if only I had known, I would have bet on Qin Yan too..."

In the stands, some were happy while others were miserable; some were beaming with joy while others beat their chests in frustration.

Cheers, curses, sighs, and wild laughter intertwined, echoing throughout the arena.

In the arena, Cang Yuan was suppressed by Qin Yan until he could barely breathe.

Every time his weapon collided with Qin Yan's long spear, the shock made his blood boil and his internal organs tremble.

By now, the hand he used to grip the halberd was dripping with blood, the web of his thumb torn and mangled.

He could even feel his bones groaning under the unbearable burden.

Another collision—

"Clang!"

Cang Yuan's halberd was whipped away by a strike from Qin Yan's spear!

It drew an arc through the air and slammed heavily into the ground in the distance, the shaft still vibrating slightly.

Immediately after, Qin Yan swept his spear across, striking Cang Yuan violently!

"Bang!"

Cang Yuan was instantly sent flying dozens of meters, crashing into the distance like a cannonball!

His body traced a long trajectory through the air before hitting the ground hard, kicking up a cloud of dust!

"Thud!"

With a dull thud, he lay there motionless, having fallen unconscious!

With that, the battle ended.

Qin Yan won.

Cang Yuan lost!

"Congratulations to contestant Qin Yan for his victory!"

In the air, Dashing's cheerful voice rang out, spreading across the entire arena.

Others might not know, but he knew that Qin Yan was an internal member of their arena—a Gold Medal Arena Defender!

Naturally, he was happy that Qin Yan won!

After Qin Yan's victory, many Martial Artists in the audience looked at the unconscious Cang Yuan on the ground and began to curse him.

"Useless trash! To think I actually bet on you! This is the level of an eight-win streak?"

"Cang Yuan, you piece of garbage! Give me back my tiangang points!"

"What eight-win streak? More like an eight-win sham!"

"I'm so angry, this month's work was for nothing!"

There were also many spectators who supported Qin Yan and were silently praising Cang Yuan.

If Cang Yuan hadn't lost, how would they have made any money?

The more miserably Cang Yuan lost, the more they earned.

"Cang Yuan is such a good person!"

"Thanks to Cang Yuan for the tiangang points!"

"Cang Yuan, you're the best! Keep losing next time!"

On the field, Qin Yan put away his long spear and calmly left the arena through the passage.

Behind him, the clamor of the audience gradually faded away.

He passed through the deep, dark passage and returned to his room.

Upon returning to his room, Zhuer greeted him warmly, her eyes filled with admiration for Qin Yan.

"Young Master!"

She called out respectfully, her voice full of worship.

She had also watched the match just now.

She had witnessed everything from the moment Qin Yan stepped out until the end of the battle.

She knew that since Qin Yan could become a Gold Medal Arena Defender, his strength was naturally extraordinary.

But she never expected that Qin Yan would be able to defeat Cang Yuan so easily.

He had beaten his opponent to the point where they couldn't resist at all!

It was a completely one-sided crushing!

This was simply too incredible!

Qin Yan nodded, not saying much.

He went to the light pillar and collected the sixth-rank Medicinal Pill he had wagered.

Then he picked up his Gold Medal Arena Defender token and sank his Mental Energy into it to check.

On the token, the column for tiangang points clearly displayed—42.13 points!

He remembered having only 0.73 points before; now there were 41.4 more.

These 41.4 points were what he had won from his bet!

This was pure profit.

Adding the previous 0.73, his tiangang points had now reached 42.13!

"Not bad at all!"

Qin Yan beamed, feeling more and more that taking this mission was simply too beneficial for him.

Not only could he earn taixuan points, but he could also earn tiangang points, killing two birds with one stone.

Afterward, Qin Yan picked up his long spear and continued training!

Time was precious and could not be wasted.

The long spear danced, creating layer upon layer of spear shadows.

He trained until daylight, and only after the crowds in the arena below had dispersed did Qin Yan put away his spear and leave the room.

He was going to spend his tiangang points immediately to enhance his combat power!

tiangang points were just numbers while held in hand.

They only gained meaning when exchanged for resources and strength.

Soon, Qin Yan arrived at the Resource Hall.

People were coming and going in the hall, with many Martial Artists queuing at various counters to exchange resources.

Qin Yan walked up to a counter and looked at the staff member.

"What is the price of a meridian opening pill in tiangang points?"

The staff member looked up; she was a young woman with delicate features and a professional attitude.

"Sir, a meridian opening pill costs 5 tiangang points each."

5 tiangang points each.

Qin Yan quickly calculated in his mind.

The fifth rank of Body Refining Martial Artists is called the Meridian Opening Realm.

The Meridian Opening Realm involves opening thirty-six Meridians within the human body and transforming them into martial veins!

Opening four Meridians and completing their nurturing and transformation marks the Middle Stage of Meridian Opening.

Transforming fifteen Meridians marks the Late Stage of Meridian Opening.

Transforming thirty-six Meridians marks the Peak of Meridian Opening.

And the meridian opening pill is a specialized Medicinal Pill used to assist in opening Meridians.

Qin Yan had also considered using tiangang points to exchange for fifth-rank Spirit Pills to increase his Qi Refining cultivation.

However, a fifth-rank Spirit Pill also costs 5 tiangang points each.

He currently only had 42.13 tiangang points, which really couldn't buy many.

42 points would only get him 8 fifth-rank Spirit Pills.

For the massive resources required to Cultivate the "Five Elements Primordial Scripture," this small amount was completely insufficient.

It wasn't even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.

It would be better used to enhance his Body Refining!
