Chapter 61 There Is Honour Among Thieves

Using medicinal pills to assist in cultivation was a common occurrence in the Pill Yang Realm or the Three Elements Realm.

However, the higher the cultivation realm, the less benefits an ordinary medicinal pill would bring to one's cultivation, apart from some miraculous medicines made from heavenly materials and earth treasures.

Of course, taking such pills, even if they didn't have any effect, wouldn't cause any adverse reactions, at least for most people.

However, things that were not a big deal to ordinary people were a bit different when it came to Xu Han.

The meridians that circulated true energy in his body were destroyed in the early years because of the Asura Art, If the demonic energy entered his body, he would still be able to rely on the Asura Arts to disperse it, However, he didn't have any meridians to guide the true energy into his body. If it was in the past, he could still try to introduce it into the sword seed. But now, the sword seed had turned purple under the infusion of the demonic energy, and its state was still unclear. Xu Han's introduction of the true energy into the sword seed was extremely likely to cause two different forces to collide and ultimately injure his body.

Therefore, swallowing the Veluriyam Pill was actually a dangerous thing for Xu Han. Of course, although this kind of danger was not life-threatening, it was very likely to leave behind some hidden dangers.

However, even so, Xu Han still chose to swallow these glass pills. Naturally, it wasn't because he wanted to die or cause trouble for himself, but because he had read the records of the Heavenly Tribulation in the past few days and had gained some understanding of his own situation, so he wanted to confirm it.

If his deduction was true, then it would definitely be a great piece of good news for Xu Han.

As Xu Han thought about this, his heart sank, and he began to comprehend the situation in his body.

As the pills were swallowed into his stomach, a warm current rose from his lower abdomen after dozens of breaths. Xu Han knew that the medicinal power was exerting its effects. After a few tens of breaths of time, the demonic energy would turn into true energy. If an ordinary cultivator could activate it into his meridians at this time, after circulating for several days, his qi would sink into his dantian, and the absorption of medicinal power would be considered complete. However, such absorption should not occur too frequently, otherwise, the foundation of cultivators would become unstable.

Xu Han naturally did not have the ability to do so. At that time, he gritted his teeth and activated the zhenqi formed from the medicinal power to surge into his internal organs.

Without the traction of his meridians, the zhenqi in Xu Han's body rushed towards his internal organs. At that time, waves of heart-wrenching pain also reached his mind. However, he gritted his teeth and suppressed the intense pain.

At this time, his zhenqi had already arrived in front of his internal organs.

Even for martial artists who specialized in the physical body, their internal organs were the most fragile places. Although the amount of True Qi flowing in was not very large, it was still enough to cause great damage to Xu Han.

Xu Hai indeed hesitated at that moment.

But very quickly, he thought of the voice that descended from the sky that day. At that time, Xu Han frowned and a fierce look flashed in his eyes. At that time, the true energy completely poured into his organs.

Xu Han gritted his teeth and was almost ready to face the anticipated pain in his heart.

However, after a few breaths of time, the pain did not come. Instead, after the true energy poured into his internal organs, a burst of purple light suddenly emerged from his internal organs. The purple light was extremely weak, but it was real.

"Success?" Xu Han's face immediately revealed joy. In the next moment, the purple light suddenly spread out from his internal organs and surged around him. At that time, Xu Han only felt a warm current surge over. The pain he felt just now was completely removed. At that time, his body seemed to be in an extremely sober state, and his entire body was much more refreshed.

These weren't the things that Xu Han was most concerned about. He hurriedly took advantage of the fact that the purple light hadn't completely dissipated to activate his own necrotic meridians. As the purple light poured in, those meridians that had turned purple and black due to the necrosis gradually turned red at that moment. It was like a withered vine growing new maids and glowing with vitality.

Although the purple light on Weibo had only repaired the tip of Xu Han's meridians, it was already great news for Xu Han.

Even the moment he opened his eyebrows, he could not help but pick up the black cat on the ground and rubbed its head. It was obvious that he was extremely excited.

Xu Han's actions seemed to be shocking and safe, but in reality, most people moved from place to place and decided that they would not be able to do such a risky thing as Xu Han.

He found in the ancient books that those who had experienced heavenly tribulation would suffer great or small injuries in the face of the might of heavenly tribulation. However, no matter how serious their injuries were, whenever there was a single breath, the power of heaven and earth would feed back his body and pull him back from the gates of hell.

This was very similar to Xu Han's situation at that time, but it was also different. Xu Han's injuries slowly recovered, not just a handful.

He carefully thought about the difference. Before the lightning tribulation disappeared, he only touched the lightning tribulation slightly. In other words, the lightning tribulation he suffered was only one thousandth of the lightning tribulation recorded in those books. Therefore, the feedback he received from the heavens and earth was much weaker than those major powers.

But if it was just this kind of feedback, there was no need for Xu Han to take the risk.

After reading those ancient books, he realized something interesting.

No matter how strong a cultivator was before reaching the Earthly Immortal Realm, once he reached the Earthly Immortal Realm, what determined his strength was the duration of their lives and the intensity of their heavenly tribulation.

Xu Han had once heard some rumors about the Immortal level. For example, once you become an Earth Immortal, In theory, an Earthly Immortal's lifespan was infinite. Of course, the prerequisite was that he could survive the heavenly tribulation that descended every hundred years. For example, Supreme True Man of Lunar Temple was rumored to have lived for six hundred years, more than double the founding time of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

In other words, the key to determining the strength of an immortal was the number and intensity of times he passed through the heavenly tribulation.

In that case, it was clear that the benefits of the Heaven and Earth Feeding were not just as simple as repairing one's own injuries. There should also be some benefits that were unknown to outsiders. Xu Han reckoned that the Earth Immortal was still living in the mortal world. The power he could absorb from the heavens and earth was no different from ordinary people. Then why was the method he could display fundamentally different from the realm below the Earth Immortal realm?

Perhaps it was because of this so-called heaven and earth feedback that he was able to convert ordinary heaven and earth spiritual energy into something of a higher level. Xu Han called this thing immortal energy.

Was this so-called immortal energy a transformation of power brought about by the feedback of heaven and earth? It was as if a cultivator in the Netherpassage Realm could convert true energy into true essence, and the entire strength was essentially different from a cultivator in the Three Elements Realm.

Naturally, Xu Han was unable to find an immortal to ask. The only thing he could think of was to try it out with his own body.

In this world, risks and benefits are always proportional.

He was lucky enough to succeed, After the true energy that he couldn't absorb poured into his internal organs, It turned into a faint purple gas. Although the purple gas was so thin that it was almost negligible, However, Xu Han could clearly feel that once this purple energy poured into his body, the changes it would bring to his body would be visible. At the very least, it was much faster than tempering his fleshly body with the first chapter of the Asura Technique, What surprised him the most was that the purple gas was actually able to repair the damage to Xu Han's meridians. Although it had little effect, it was a difficult problem that even the Headmaster was helpless against. He thought that he would have to spend a while in the Exquisite Pavilion to find a solution, but he didn't want to find such a solution by chance.

However, after the ecstasy, Xu Han quickly calmed down.

But just now, he had used six glass pills to repair those meridians, and the meridians he had treated were less than one thousandth of the meridians in his entire body. From this, if he wanted to rely on this method to repair his meridians, he would need at least 60,000 glass pills.

As for the entire Exquisite Pavilion, I'm afraid they won't be able to gather such a large amount of pills for a while, let alone why they would use up all of the strength of the entire mountain gate for him, Xu Han?

As Xu Han thought this, he turned his head to the door beside him.

The sound of rumbling could be heard from inside, and it was because Chu Chouli was once again drinking to the point that he was in a daze.

Chu Chouli was a very strange person. He seemed to only do three things, cooking, drinking, and smoothing things.

At Xu Han's command, Chu Chouli helped him steal many ancient books from the Grand Atlantic Peak. But after all, it was too late, Looking at the books being kept at home day and night, Chu Chouli, who was about to empty the entire Exquisite Pavilion's library, said, However, Xu Han panicked. First, he asked him to put back some unwanted books. Then, he painstakingly educated Chu Chouli. He recalled the righteousness of the sages in his mind and promised to buy him enough wine. Only then did he stop the middle-aged man's thoughts of going out to steal the sheep.

However, Chu Chouli, who had nothing to steal, was drunk in his room every day. Xu Han felt dizzy just by sniffing the alcohol in the room. He didn't know how Chu Chouli could drink so much alcohol. If it wasn't for Miss Ye's great business, Xu Han would have been bankrupt by someone from Chu and would have had to resume begging again.

However, there were some things that happened at one time and another.

Xu Han had an idea in his heart, so he walked to the front of the room and pushed open the door.

Chu Chouli, who was drinking until he was rising, turned his head to look at Xu Han, his bearded face full of confusion.

" Big Brother Chu !" However, Xu Han did not care about this. He had a righteous expression on his face, as if he had suddenly comprehended everything. He looked at the man holding the wine jug with guilt and pain and said, "I've thought it through. The great dao under the heavens is the same. There is also a dao for thieves!"

At that time, the drunkard grinned.

As a result, numerous headless and mysterious cases of missing glass pills began to occur on the Chongju Peak .

All of a sudden, the outer sect disciples cried out in fear.
