Chapter 519: Completed Cultivation Method (3)
Zheng Yunhui had consumed something similar as well, courtesy of Liu Hong. These fruits cost 500 merit points each.
Each fruit could help with the opening of an acupoint or two. But it was too expensive. For 5 fruits, they needed to pay 2,500 merit points. Since Zhou Hao needed 20 days to open those acupoints without any help, the value he could generate daily through cultivation would be the equivalent of 125 merit points. To put that into perspective, one could only get 100 merit points from killing an enemy low-stage Skysoar.
"It's fine. His teacher will be paying for it."
Su Yu wanted efficiency. He did not care about money. He couldn't wait 20 days. That was too long. In fact, this was the very reason he had asked for money from Xia Yuwen.
Zhou Hao remained silent.
Xia Huyou sternly asked, "Have you really created a proper cultivation method?"
Su Yu would be crazy to do this to a random cultivation method. Would he waste thousands of merit points and let Zhou Hao cultivate it if it was a random cultivation method?
"Stop wasting time."
Su Yu rolled his eyes and said, "It's not like you need to pay out of your own pockets. I only need you to get the fruits for me. This fellow usually cultivates without external help, so the fruits will probably be very effective on him. By spending only 2,500 merit points, he might be able to finish opening all the acupoints by tomorrow morning."
Shortening 20 days to 1 day by spending 2,500 merit points for 10 acupoints. No matter how one looked at it, this was a loss. Even a Sunmoon would look at Su Yu like he was crazy upon hearing about this.
But in Su Yu's mind, 20 days were too long. Knowing if this cultivation method worked 20 days in advance was far more important than 2,500 merit points. Xia Huyou had nothing else to say. He called a number and said something to the communicator.
The faces of the others on the underground floor turned solemn. They all realized that this was not a joke. This was a serious attempt. Su Yu was not doing this to mess with Zhou Hao. There really was a cultivation method.
After ending the call, Xia Huyou said, "The fruits will be delivered shortly. Su Yu, can I take a look at the cultivation method?"
Su Yu looked at everyone in the room and nodded, "All of you can see it, but I need to make this clear. None of you have the right to spread this cultivation method. If I find anyone leaking it, this will be the last time we work together.
"Also, if this cultivation method really works, I will probably not teach it to any outsider. I have a few weaker versions of this method so those will be auctioned off for money which we can use to continue our research."
When the others heard that, their faces turned solemn. So Su Yu was taking this so seriously?
Xia Huyou did not say anything and snatched the acupoint chart from Zhou Hao's hand and looked at it. After a while, he frowned, "36 acupoints? Isn't this...too much? For auxiliary cultivation methods, only the top-tier ones will require 36 acupoints."
"Exactly. This is going to be a top-tier product." Su Yu confidently said, "If it works, it will be able to suppress all repelling force of acupoints. It will make acupoint fusion easy. You will be able to fuse three to five acupoints easily per day. Even if you cultivate the Sky Sundering Saber, you can complete the first stage in three days. In a month, you can reach the ninth stage."
"..."
Xia Huyou looked at Su Yu like he was looking at a madman.
Holy shit!
Did this fellow think that the Sky Sundering Saber was some garbage cultivation method? Xia Huyou himself had spent a long time cultivating this method. Up until now, he had only fused 15 acupoints. He still needed some time to fuse the final acupoint.
This fellow was claiming that he could complete the fusion and reach ninth-stage Infinite Strength Realm in a month?
Su Yu ignored Xia Huyou's gaze and said, "I also suggest that all of you switch your cultivation methods. Pick a heaven-grade method to cultivate. In the past, a lot of people avoid heaven-grade methods because of the difficulty when fusing acupoints. But with our acupoint fusion method, you will gain a lot of strength if you cultivate heaven-grade methods. If you don't have one, you can look for the Xia Family. It's not impossible for you guys to get one from them."
"..."
They stared at him in stupefaction. This fellow was making it sound so easy. Did they not need time to open new acupoints?
Xia Huyou was not worried about that. He said, "If there is really a way to reduce the repelling force, it won't be too late to open new acupoints at the Infinite Strength Realm. You can reach the ninth-stage Infinite Strength Realm first and slowly open and fuse the acupoints for your new cultivation method before entering the Skysoar Realm. The end result is the same."
But was Su Yu telling the truth? Xia Huyou was doubtful.
At this time, Wu Lan asked curiously, "Did you deduce this cultivation method yourself?"
"You can say so. I have a few experts helping me, but the data you guys gathered have been very helpful in giving me a lot of inspiration. I've decided. If the cultivation method works, I will name it the Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art to thank my senior sister and Wu Lan for their great contributions. This is a cultivation method that can alter the trajectory of humanity..."
The two girls were stunned.
Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art!
The others were dumbstruck. Dang! Was there a need for that?
Wu Jia exclaimed in joy, "Junior Brother, are you really calling it that?"
"Yeah."
"Junior Brother, you're too cute!"
Wu Jia was overjoyed, while Wu Lan was completely stunned.
Big Sister, Grandaunt...I...I have created a new cultivation method! A cultivation method that would alter the trajectory of humanity! I...have successfully left my name in the annals of history!
She was completely stunned. She didn't even know what she was thinking anymore. The only thing she knew was how amazing she was. This research center was the place that had changed her fate.
Nobody would say that she could only rely on the Wu Family anymore. Nobody could deny that she was a genius! A cultivation method she created had changed the trajectory of humanity!
...
The others were too busy to worry about what she was thinking. Before long, Xia Huyou's people arrived with the delivery of five earthly source fruits.
Su Yu wasted no time and tossed the fruits to Zhou Hao before saying, "Start opening acupoints. If you need more source qi, we can get you into a grotto as well."
"This is enough."
Zhou Hao licked his lips in excitement. He had heard about the earthly source fruit before. He had actually obtained five of them at once. Clearly, Su Yu had high hopes for this cultivation method. All his unease from before vanished. Su Yu would not joke around after paying such a big price.
...
When Zhou Hao started cultivating, Su Yu wasted no time and sat down cross-legged to cultivate as well. He was trying to open more acupoints. After cultivating the Body Strengthening Art, his acupoint opening speed had been very fast. Both of them had incredible source qi absorption speed.
The others looked at the two in stupefaction. Zhou Hao's speed was understandable as he had consumed an earthly source fruit. But..what the fuck was up with Su Yu? What a terrifying monster. A freak with over 300 acupoints was indeed scary.
With the two monsters cultivating together, the surrounding source qi was quickly exhausted, forcing them to use a large amount of source qi liquid. This was the basic resource a research center should have, and Xia Huyou was the one who had supplied all these essential resources.
One hour, two hours...
Everyone stayed silent. When they were bored, they would go out for a walk. Nobody said anything as they waited.
...
15 hours later.
Zhou Hao opened his eyes.
Five earthly source fruits had been consumed.
At the same time, Su Yu opened his eyes. It had been 15 hours. After using a large amount of source qi liquid, he had opened 2 additional acupoints. At the moment, he had opened a total of 310 acupoints.
If he could cultivate in a grotto, his speed would increase. But for now, he couldn't be bothered to go there as the grotto could be inconvenient since there were too many people there.
"Done?"
"Yeah." Zhou Hao was excited. "The earthly source fruits are very useful. The first fruit alone helped me with three acupoints. The remaining fruits were less effective."
Xia Huyou and the others rolled their eyes.
Fuck!
They had all consumed earthly source fruits before. Generally, one would be happy with two acupoints after consuming their first fruit. This fellow had actually opened three.
Su Yu said, "Don't waste any time. Try the cultivation method."
"Sure." Zhou Hao said nothing else. He had already seen the acupoint chart. It was no willpower text, but with all the acupoints opened, he did not need a willpower text to know how he should link these acupoints.
To clearly show the effect, he allowed his acupoints to light up brightly.
One...two...
Everyone's heart thumped nervously. The first barrier was the circulation. If the circulation was smooth, they would be faced with the second barrier: the actual effect of the cultivation method.
About an hour later, Zhou Hao was sweating profusely. He had yet to complete the process of linking all 36 acupoints.
Since this was his first attempt, it wasn't exactly an easy process. Circulating source qi through a new path was not easy at all.
Su Yu said, "Be patient. Slow down a bit and focus on circulating your source qi."
Zhou Hao said nothing and kept trying. After another half an hour, 36 acupoints lit up with a rumble.
"Done!"
Everyone was overjoyed. They had yet to see the effect of the cultivation method, but linking all the acupoints alone was already a great achievement. That was enough to prove that this was a working cultivation method.
"Start fusing your acupoints. Use this cultivation method to suppress the repelling force."
Su Yu wasn't too surprised. He was quite confident that these acupoints could be linked. Since it was now confirmed that the cultivation method was safe to use, he was relieved. He could try it out himself as well. Unfortunately, he had yet to open all 36 of the required acupoints so he still needed to wait.
"Sure."
Next, 16 different acupoints on Zhou Hao's body lit up. That was the acupoints for the first stage of the Thousand Mountain Art. Two acupoints started coming together. But before they were even near each other, a repelling force erupted and pushed them apart.
Right that moment, a powerful suppressive force erupted from a different 36 acupoints. Instantly, the two acupoints came together. That wasn't a complete fusion yet, but that was clear proof that the repelling force had been suppressed. Now, only time was required for the two acupoints to finish the fusion.
A deafening silence descended. Each of them saw that clearly. The powerful repelling force had been suppressed.
Gone.
Sounds of heavy breathing rang out in the room. They were incomparably shocked. This was not supposed to be possible!
