C15 Ferocious collision
This energy was different from the docile, harmonious energy of heaven and earth. It was like a mad, angry lion that was crazily rampaging through Alec's meridians.
It was as if all the meridians in his body could not bear the pressure and began to ache. Alec felt as if all the blood vessels in his body were about to burst.
Just as he was about to collapse from the pressure, the illusion within the cauldron began to rapidly absorb the energy. The Eternal Universe Mother Cauldron was like a powerful whirlpool, crazily absorbing energy that was just as crazy.
Before long, the lion like energy was absorbed by the illusion. He licked his lips in satisfaction, and a moment later, he went back into the cauldron and continued cultivating.
The discomfort on Alec's body gradually disappeared. However, at this moment, there were more strands of berserk energy in his body. It merged with the original strands.
Alec smiled, slowly controlling it and moving it through his body. He could not be more familiar with this energy; it was extremely useful for cultivators to break through their acupoints.
Slowly activating this energy, Alric was like a monk meditating, concentrating on his cultivation.
An endless stream of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi flowed into his body through his pores and the Baihui acupoint above his head. It flowed through his eight extraordinary meridians.
The Baihui acupoint was only a very small acupoint, but the speed at which it absorbed Essence was terrifying. It was half of the rate at which all of Alec's pores absorbed Essence!
Without a doubt, this had greatly increased Alec's cultivation speed. This was the advantage of breaking through to the Enlightenment acupoint. With every opening, the rate at which the Essence Qi was absorbed would greatly increase, greatly increasing the speed at which cultivators cultivated. The cultivation speed of Acupoint Charging Stage 1 and Level 9 was far from being on par with each other.
Alec only opened up one acupoint, and he already felt that the efficiency of his training had increased by leaps and bounds.
Alec spent the entire night absorbing heaven and earth origin energy like crazy …
...
Vidala's study, in the Vidala compound.
Vidala sat in the armchair, listening to the report of a man in a black suit and mask. He nodded and said, "That kid from the Alec family is now a darling of the Aleck family. It's normal for him to be on the safe side wherever he goes."
After a pause, he continued, "You don't have to be too hasty. You have to observe in secret and find a good opportunity. You have to kill him in one hit. Also, you have to make sure that Alec's family doesn't have any clue about who did this."
"Yes, Patriarch!" The black-clothed underling obeyed.
"Mm, you can leave now." Vader waved his hand, and the man in black backed away.
He was lost in thought as he looked at the green potted plant beside the desk — the Alec family's kid had improved too much. In just a year, he had advanced from a good-for-nothing to the Acupoint Charging Stage 1. Moreover, to be able to defeat Hu Yingliang of the eighth floor with just the first layer of strength, his future accomplishments would definitely be extraordinary.
If he didn't kill it soon, it would become a huge problem for the Vidara family in the future. All these years, the Vidara family had always been stronger than the Alec family. However, as the kid's strength increased, the status of the Alec family rose, and they gradually began to surpass the Vidara family's status. This child must not be allowed to live!
Vidala thought.
However, the Vidara family didn't want to start a war with Alec right now, so they had to kill the kid who killed Alec. They had to do it secretly and not let anyone know that it was the Vidara family's doing.
This was also the reason why Vidala's killing intent towards Alec had persisted for so long, even though all his men had been prepared.
He was looking for an opportunity, the most advantageous time, to make everything flawless.
Vidal smiled as he looked at the green potted plant.: "It doesn't matter. I have time. I can wait until the moment I kill you."
...
Ling Residence, Alec's house courtyard.
Until the next morning, Alec was immersed in his training, oblivious to everything that was happening outside, unaware of Vidala's conspiracy.
At this moment, there was only heaven and earth origin energy in his world, and only rapid growth in cultivation could be seen.
Seeing this situation, the servant who came to deliver breakfast did not dare to disturb him. He carefully placed the food on the table and quietly left.
It wasn't until the sun set in the west that Alec finally breathed out a mouthful of foul air. He opened his eyes, and a hint of joy could be seen on his face. At this moment, he finally understood how much power the opening of his acupoints could provide to his cultivation.
This one day and one night of cultivation was equivalent to the result of two days of cultivation in the past. And this was only opening the Baihui acupoints, if he were to open all nine of his chakras in the future, how fast would his cultivation speed rise!
Alec was very satisfied with the results of his training.
Although he hadn't eaten anything all day, Alec didn't feel very hungry due to the nourishment of the natural elemental energy.
After giving the servant some simple instructions, Alec opened Hu Yingliang's storage bag and prepared to eat another medicinal herb. If he was right, the fantasy would soon be hungry.
Holding a herb in his hand, Alec's eyes focused on the short stick, which appeared to be unremarkable.
After a moment's hesitation, Alec took it out.
Alec had studied this short stick when he first obtained it, but he hadn't found anything special about it. It looked no different from an ordinary iron rod. So Alec didn't take it too seriously. At that time, Hu Yingliang would casually place it in his storage bag and didn't find anything special about it.
But somehow, when Alec saw it again, his heart throbbed.
Alec didn't know what the feeling was, but he had a faint feeling that the iron rod was not ordinary.
Alec thought back to when he had first seen it. The dark gray matter in his mind seemed to fluctuate slightly. But because the time was so short and fleeting, Alec even thought it was just an illusion.
Holding it in his hand, Alec prepared to take a closer look at the piece of iron.
No, it was a short pole! Alec originally thought that it was made of iron, because regardless of its color or appearance, it looked no different from an iron piece. However, when he held it in his hand, he realized that not only was it not as heavy as an iron piece, it was actually as light as a feather!
So light? Alec weighed it in his hand. It felt like he was holding nothing, and even if it was empty, it shouldn't have been so light.
Looking at its stocky, heavy, and iron-like appearance, and then feeling its weight as light as a feather, it was indescribably strange.
Alec took out his knife, ready to cut it down to see what it was made of. However, what made him even more surprised was that no matter how much strength he used, the sharp blade could not cut it down at all. Not even a scratch was left.
Alec was confused and started to pour his spiritual energy into the blade. Suddenly, the light of the sharp blade became even brighter as it released a buzzing sound. It was obvious that there was a very large amount of power contained within it.
"Sigh!" Alec ordered his blade to strike at the stick.
The short blade, which was filled with spirit energy and was shining brilliantly, cut down towards the short stick with a fierce momentum, mixed with the whistling sound of the wind.
With a "chi" sound, the two collided ferociously, and the sharp blade broke into two. Due to the influence of the blade wind, several of the chairs in the surrounding area had been broken.
"Huh?" When Alec picked up the stick and checked it, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise – because even after such a fierce attack, not a single scratch was left on the stick!
Alec was at the second level of the Acupoint Charging Stage. He could turn a rock into dust with a single strike, but the short stick could not move at all.
Alec's expression became very solemn. He picked it up and carefully examined it.
This section seemed heavy and cumbersome, but in reality, it was as light as a feather. It was only 20 centimeters long, and there were all kinds of complicated and difficult to understand patterns engraved on it. Alec looked at it for a long time, but he still could not find any clues. Even the inscription on it did not reveal anything.
Strange. Alec held the stick in his hand and looked surprised.
What was the use of this short stick? If it was used as a shield or armor, it would be a very good material. But this small section clearly wasn't enough to defend against.
If it was used as a weapon?" Alec shook his head. Using the same kind of force, using a greatsword and a feather, slashing at the enemy separately, one could imagine the consequences of that — a greatsword chopping steel like mud, while a feather wouldn't cause the slightest bit of damage to the enemy.
Therefore, this short stick could not be used as a weapon. If it was sharp, and extremely fast, he could consider using it as a weapon. But unfortunately, it was just a blunt stick...
Alec couldn't figure out what it was for, even after thinking for a long time.
Just as Alec was about to put it back into the ring, the dark gray substance in his head wavered. The waves were clear this time, and Alec could clearly feel them.
It turned out that it wasn't an illusion the day before yesterday! Alec's spirits were lifted. He finally got a feel for the stave. It seemed to have something to do with the dark gray mass.
The mysteries of the dark gray substance contained a tremendous amount of energy. It could even allow an Acupoint Charging realm cultivator to master the ultimate move of a Body Transformation expert — Sword Kinesis Killing Technique.
Now that he had a connection to this miraculous stick, it must be extraordinary.
Although he didn't know what it was used for, Alric still kept it properly in his interspatial ring.
For the next half month, Alec stayed indoors every day, cultivating all the time.
Right now he had just entered the second layer of the Acupoint Charging Realm. He needed to consolidate his cultivation so that his spiritual energy wouldn't collapse and fall back to the first layer of the Acupoint Charging Realm. This sort of thing had happened before in the Xuan Qi Continent.
On the morning of the sixteenth day, Alec woke up from his cultivation. At this moment, the spirit energy seed within his dantian's spirit sea, which was the size of a longan, emitted a faint golden light as if it were real.
At the very top, there was a round, smooth, sesame-like depression. This was the sign of success in entering the second layer from the first layer of the Acupoint Charging Stage.
Half a month ago, the edge of the small hole was still blurry and uneven, which meant that the foundation of the second level of the Acupoint Charging Stage was not stable, and was in danger of collapsing at any moment.
However, after half a month of cultivation, the small hole had already become much smoother.
Alric had originally thought that it would take at least a month to two months to consolidate his cultivation. He hadn't expected it to be done in half a month.
