Leiyun Academy, at the peak of the spiritual mountain where new disciples reside.
"Hahaha, I can't believe that I, Ping Xiaosan, actually have an elder's personal disciple as a brother. It's simply awesome! Wahaha!!"
In the small courtyard at the peak, Fatty Ping Xiaosan and Yun Xiao are sitting opposite each other. The former is constantly laughing and even jumping up and down non-stop, expressing his excitement.
Just now, Yun Xiao, who had been missing for many days, finally returned and told him all about his experiences during these days. After confirming that the Yun Xiao who is being widely talked about in the entire academy is his brother Yun Xiao, his mood is even better than Yun Xiao himself.
"But it's just an elder's personal disciple. There's no need to be so exaggerated, right?"
Sitting casually there, Yun Xiao doesn't think it's a big deal at all. For him, whether it's an elder's personal disciple or an ordinary disciple, it's all about serious cultivation. Even if he becomes an elder's personal disciple, there's nothing to be proud of.
"What do you mean just an elder's personal disciple?" Hearing Yun Xiao's words, Fatty gave him a displeased look. "Brother, do you think anyone can be an elder's personal disciple? You should know that you are now a famous person in the entire Leiyun Academy. There are countless people who want to see you and find out who you are!"
Recently, he has heard a lot of rumors about Yun Xiao. The most common one is undoubtedly that Yun Xiao was accepted as a personal disciple by Elder Yan because he was the first new disciple to go to the library.
However, to be honest, he doesn't think things are really as everyone says. Yun Xiao was accepted as a personal disciple by Elder Yan for such a childish reason. After all, he has seen Yun Xiao make a move before and deeply knows how terrifying Yun Xiao's talent is. Elder Yan accepted Yun Xiao as a personal disciple must have seen Yun Xiao's talent.
"See who I am? Probably they want to see my joke, right?"
Hearing Fatty's words, Yun Xiao couldn't help but shake his head and smile, clearly understanding what the other person means.
Speaking of which, when he returned from Elder Yan's Yanlai Peak, he actually heard many people talking about him along the way. Later, after asking around, he found out that he was already so famous.
Regarding the rumors outside, he naturally has no intention to explain anything. Since everyone thinks that he was just lucky to be accepted as a personal disciple by Elder Yan, he is also happy to be underestimated by everyone. After all, he came to Leiyun Academy to cultivate, not to become famous.
"Hehe, those people are fools with no eyes. You don't have to take it to heart."
Seeing Yun Xiao's expression, Fatty doesn't know if Yun Xiao really sees it through, so he comforts him mildly.
"Let's not talk about these anymore. Fatty, after I left, did Kong Jingsheng from the Kong family come to cause trouble?"
Shaking his head, Yun Xiao doesn't care at all about how others see him. But last time he provoked Kong Jingsheng from the Kong family. He is worried that the other party will take revenge and bring trouble to Fatty.
"Ha, of course he doesn't dare to come anymore." Hearing Yun Xiao mention this matter, Fatty couldn't help but laugh loudly. "Brother, now you are Elder Yan's personal disciple. No matter how you became this personal disciple, you have an academy elder backing you up. No matter how bold Kong Jingsheng is, he definitely wouldn't dare to cause trouble for an elder's personal disciple."
As the saying goes, even when beating a dog, one should look at its owner. Although this sounds a bit harsh, it actually makes sense.
Perhaps Yun Xiao was really accepted by Elder Yan by luck. But since this matter has become a fact, the process doesn't matter at all.
"That's good. After all, the Kong family is a powerful force. It's a good thing if they can calm down a bit."
He is not afraid of the other party. However, now that he is Elder Yan's personal disciple, his words and deeds no longer represent only himself. If he does something out of line, he is afraid it will bring trouble to his master.
"Okay, I won't talk to you for now. I need to go back to my room and sort out what happened these days. Let's talk later."
In such a good time, he doesn't want to waste it all on chatting with Fatty. If he has that time, it's better to speed up his cultivation and make full preparations for the upcoming academy competition.
"Go ahead. I also happen to want to go to the academy library to find a martial art to cultivate. See you later."
"See you later."
The two bid farewell to each other and then went to do their own things.
"啧啧,no matter how good a golden nest or a silver nest is, it's not as good as one's own doghouse. Although it's good at Master's place, it's not as free as here after all. It seems that I'd better stay here and cultivate obediently in the future."
Returning to his own small room, a sense of familiarity arises spontaneously. Although he hasn't stayed here for a long time, this place belongs only to him. Inwardly, it's not comparable to the main hall of Yanlai Peak.
"Don't waste any more time. I need to completely master the Dragon-Capturing Art as soon as possible so that I can store more five-element true essence and greatly enhance my strength."
Closing the door, he no longer hesitates. Saying that, he sits cross-legged on the bed and starts to cultivate the Dragon-Capturing Art in a race against time.
Strands of five-element true qi emerge from the dantian and the opened acupoints and start to flow through the meridians all over the body. This true qi is extremely pure. Every time it flows, it seems to be able to strengthen his meridians and bones. It's truly extraordinary.
After several major circulations, Yun Xiao slowly guides this true qi to his calf position. Then, with a slight movement of his spiritual power, the nine major acupoints on his calf are presented in front of him.
After confirming these nine major acupoints, he uses his spiritual power to divide the true qi into nine strands. Then he controls these nine strands of true qi to enter the nine major acupoints respectively. Soon, these nine major acupoints are filled with five-element true qi.
"These nine major acupoints are much stronger than those opened before. I'm afraid it will be more difficult to open acupoints here. But once the acupoints are opened, the stored true essence will be much more than in other acupoints, which will also be a huge improvement to my leg skills."
The cultivation method of the Dragon-Capturing Art is secretly operating. He can feel that it will be a bit more difficult to open these nine major acupoints. But it's just a matter of more time. At present, there are still more than two months before the big competition. He still has plenty of time.
Calm and focused, he is not in a hurry. Just like boiling a frog in warm water, he condenses the nine major acupoints with the method of the Dragon-Capturing Art. As time passes, these nine major acupoints are obviously becoming different, and the final change is obviously getting closer.
Cultivating quietly in his own small room, no one comes to disturb him, and he doesn't have to worry about being seen by his master. So, his mood is very relaxed.
Soon, a day and a night pass quietly. After a whole day and night of cultivation, the nine major acupoints on the calf are shining brightly. Then, nine brand new acupoints appear in front of him.
"Good. In a day and a night, I have successfully opened up nine more acupoints. Counting the previous seventy-two acupoints, now I have successfully opened up eighty-one acupoints. I'm really not far from opening up all one hundred and eight acupoints in the body."
Suddenly opening his eyes, Yun Xiao can't help but show a delighted smile. Because at this moment, his Dragon-Capturing Art is only two steps away from being fully mastered. As long as he completes the opening of the last eighteen major acupoints, the Dragon-Capturing Art will truly be mastered by him. At that time, he believes he will become extremely powerful.
"Strike while the iron is hot. I want to see how much time it will take to complete these last eighteen major acupoints."
Slowly closing his eyes, he doesn't even take a break. Saying that, he starts to operate true qi and begins to open the next major acupoint.
Among these remaining eighteen major acupoints, nine are on the other calf, and the other nine are distributed on the head. Undoubtedly, opening the nine major acupoints on the head is the most dangerous. If there is the slightest mistake, it will be a life-threatening situation.
It took a day and a night for Yun Xiao to successfully open up the acupoints in the nine major acupoints on the other calf. Then he immediately starts to open up the nine major acupoints on the head.
The nine major acupoints on the head are all the most vulnerable acupoints. The difficulty of opening them is not great. But the difficulty lies in the extraordinary location of these nine major acupoints. Speaking of which, if true qi goes berserk in other parts of the body, he can still suppress it with the power of spiritual power. But if true qi goes berserk here and is not suppressed in time, then he will really die.
So, for the opening of these nine major acupoints, he reduces the degree to the extreme. Originally, he only uses less than fifty percent of his full true qi, for fear of an irreversible situation.
As the sun sets and the moon rises, a full five days slowly pass by in his cultivation.
On this day, a golden light suddenly shines on Yun Xiao's head. This golden light flashes and then disappears. Then, an indescribably terrifying aura spreads around Yun Xiao. There is even a faint dragon's roar.
"Chichichichi!!!!"
The huge five-element true qi in the body begins to circulate rapidly in all the meridians. Almost in just a few breaths, this true qi has completed a major circulation. This circulation speed is more than ten times faster than before cultivating the Dragon-Capturing Art!
"Swish!!!!"
Suddenly opening his eyes, two bright rays shoot out. And in Yun Xiao's eyes, finally a satisfied smile appears.
"I have finally opened up all one hundred and eight acupoints of the Dragon-Capturing Art successfully!!"
With a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, at this moment, he suddenly becomes different.
