Jiu Muli pressed a hand on Qin Zheng's back, as if he had felt Jiu Muli's touch, the spiritual energy in Qin Zheng's body did not reject her action, and allowed her to inspect his back.
It was at this time that Jiu Muli sensed where the fifty-first profound vein was.
Not only that, she could also sense that the cold Qi that had been suppressed within Qin Zheng's body had also instantly erupted.
At the same time, she understood how terrifying the cold energy that Qin Zheng wanted to suppress was. She felt that if she touched even a trace of that cold energy, she would instantly be frozen into ice scraps.
"How did this freak train to be so strong?"
Jiu Muli was extremely shocked in his heart. It was simply unimaginable how strong Qin Zheng was, she had also faced Bai Huaxian before, but she was very clear that Bai Huaxian was definitely not a match for Qin Zheng in his perfect condition.
Seeing that, Jiu Muli's one hand shook, the Purgatory flower of seven colors completely shattered, transforming into a boiling hot juice, which landed on the 51st profound vein.
An explosive sound seemed to come from Qin Zheng's body as the Purgatory flower of seven colors's medicinal effects were attracted by the effects of the previous twenty types of medicinal ingredients, instantly erupting with a sky-overflowing heat wave.
The cold energy within Qin Zheng's body was abruptly suppressed, but the heat wave that was still present did not weaken, as it gushed towards the 51st profound vein threshold of Qin Zheng's body.
Boom!
A silent impact, like a drummer hitting the drum, the heaven shaking drum sound made everyone's heart tremble, Qin Zheng's face instantly turned white.
Although the barrier loosened during the first charge, it still did not break. Only the medicinal liquid was continuously seeping into the invisible barrier and seemed to be slowly eroding it.
The more powerful the cultivation, the harder it was to break through the barrier. This was simply a cycle of death, to break through it, it was completely dependent on a fight to the death, so any mistake would cause instant injuries.
Jiu Muli had expected this would happen, but Qin Zheng's strength had greatly surprised her.
Because Qin Zheng had already started the second wave of attacks.
"Slow down, don't rush!"
Jiu Muli shouted, she did not expect Qin Zheng to be so fierce.
But Qin Zheng acted as if he didn't hear it, the spiritual energy in his body was like a wave as it ferociously struck out, and as one wave faded away, there was another that followed closely behind, and that barrier was also like a reef in the ocean.
This was ridiculously strong!
Jiu Muli was speechless, she did not know how to describe it. The spiritual energy in her body was still as strong as a stream, it could not compare to Qin Zheng's strength at all.
However, this was the most crucial moment, because the effects of the medicine had already been fully unleashed.
Jiu Muli released the hand he was pressing on Qin Zheng's back, and said: "Don't use the spiritual energy for a backlash!"
As he spoke, he picked up a silver needle and pierced it down.
Following the fall of the silver needle, Qin Zheng's body shook violently, as though he wanted to release the silver needle, but he held it in after that, and the veins on his forehead seemed to calm down a little.
"Chi!"
"Chi!"
Following closely behind, a silver light constantly flashed. Jiu Muli's hands were as fast as butterflies piercing through flowers, leaving behind afterimages.
One after another of the silver needles pierced Qin Zheng's skin and penetrated deep into his body.
As the dozen or so silver needles descended, the cold energy in Qin Zheng's body was instantly suppressed to the extreme, as though it was completely sealed off. And on the fifty-first profound vein's wall, it seemed like the wall could not withstand the spiritual energy's corrosion and could collapse at any time.
Because of the stimulation of the silver needle, the silver needle was like a bright light. Without Jiu Muli needing to explain, Qin Zheng had already gathered the spiritual energy together and directly struck the silver needle.
Jiu Muli was also relieved. She knew that they had already completely succeeded in reaching this step. At the very least, there wouldn't be much risk for them in the future.
To help a Opening the Profound Vein, one needed to study to gain this kind of trust. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for her silver needles to have any effect, after all, cultivators have too strong control over their bodies and can release the silver needles at any time.
Time flowed on, and soon, a quarter of an hour had passed.
Qin Zheng's body kept on trembling, suddenly, he became quiet, a burst of overflowing qi aura swept out from his body, his long hair fluttered without wind.
"Done!"
Jiu Muli's eyes flashed with a bright light, his hands reached out again and pulled out all the silver needles at an extremely fast speed.
Boom!
An astonishing aura instantly filled the air, like the eruption of a volcano.
This aura was as resplendent as the stars. It was sharp and domineering, directly piercing through the heavens. It was like a transparent sword that pierced through the heavens.
Whoosh!
Jiu Muli was forced to retreat backwards, as the tables and chairs around him flew in all directions.
Duke Zhen's Mansion, Bai Huaxian was currently imparting the secret technique to Jiu Tianxue, but suddenly he felt a burst of Qi from the palace, his face changed, as he looked towards the direction of the Qi.
"Who is it? Could it be him?"
Bai Huaxian's face was solemn, ignoring Jiu Tianxue's surprised look, his heart was in turmoil, and the image of Qin Zheng's tyrannical face appeared in his mind.
In a mountain forest far away from Qin Kingdom's Imperial Palace, an old man also had a solemn face, he looked towards Jiuhua Hall and did not speak for a long time.
In Jiuhua Hall, Jiu Muli was forced away by the aura, he had just stabilized his body, only to see Qin Zheng's aura suddenly disappearing, and his entire body was no longer releasing any Qi.
The Opening the Profound Vein succeeded. Fifty-one profound vein appeared in Qin Zheng's body, and each spiritual energy was like divine Golden Dragon, but they were tightly restrained and kept hidden.
How could this be?
Jiu Muli's eyes congealed. She was extremely surprised when she saw that divine dragon retract its gaze.
Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to not be able to suppress the cold energy of the Star Soul with that kind of strength, and it was also impossible for him to break through to the fifty-first profound vein. However, it was indeed very difficult for Qin Zheng to do so.
"Weird, there's a big secret inside his body."
Jiu Muli's heart jumped, although she had also investigated Qin Zheng's body earlier, her gains were also very small. She did not even notice the appearance of the ice attribute Star Soul, as though it had been deliberately hidden, let alone any other secrets.
Furthermore, she faintly felt that Qin Zheng's strength was definitely not as weak as it appeared on the surface. On the contrary, he would be ridiculously strong.
She definitely wouldn't be mistaken. Even though the hidden power was short-lived, she still detected it. It was a pity that it had only appeared for a short period of time. Furthermore, she was too far away so she couldn't see it clearly.
"Could it be that there's some sort of taboo on him that prevents him from using his full power? Or is it that he's doing this intentionally?"
Jiu Muli frowned slightly as he muttered to himself in a low voice, and for a moment, he couldn't figure it out.
But since Qin Zheng had not mentioned it at all, it was clear that she did not want others to know about it.
Jiu Muli quickly opened the door. Who didn't have a secret, even she had many on her. Regarding this, she didn't want to pursue it too deeply.
Seeing that Qin Zheng was still meditating, she knew that the other party would take a period of time to get familiar with him.
"There are only three months until the opening of Star God Pagoda, so I should be preparing."
Being provoked by Qin Zheng's breakthrough, Jiu Muli also had a sense of urgency, he felt that he had to properly sharpen his own strength in order to prepare for a great meeting three months later.
After exiting the palace, he comforted Director Chen after seeing him standing guard outside with a face full of worry.
Although the time it took for her to make a move seemed short and easy, it was actually very taxing. If she had made a move just now, she would not have been able to withstand it.
Fortunately she had helped Qin Zheng out of a difficult situation. The guilt she felt from destroying the blood pool also disappeared, and was replaced with relief.
When Qin Zheng appeared again in front of Jiu Muli's eyes, his entire body seemed to have undergone a strange change.
Maybe it was because the pressure on his entire body had disappeared, or maybe it was because the extremely big secret on his body was gradually being revealed, the current Qin Zheng no longer had the imposing aura from before, but was instead like an extremely ordinary youth, with no movement from his body, like a lead flower.
Although he still appeared cold and detached, he didn't make anyone feel frightened anymore. Instead, he made people feel close to him.
"You've recovered? "Seems like you've gained quite a bit."
Jiu Muli said, sizing up Qin Zheng, she had to admit that he was a young genius whose entire body was filled with enigmas, even though she had personally helped him break through, she still could not see the depth of his words.
Qin Zheng nodded silently, and said: "Your talent is indeed extraordinary."
At least, he had never heard of using that strange needle to stimulate a profound vein.
Jiu Muli laughed, and did not say much, sometimes actions are more effective than words.
Seeing this, Qin Zheng's eyes became serious. He tyrannically sat next to Jiu Muli and said: "You want to join Star God Pagoda?"
"Uh, you know?"
Jiu Muli was a little surprised. She didn't seem to have told this evil spirit.
Qin Zheng frowned and said: "Should I not know?"
"I …" Jiu Muli almost vomited blood on his face.
Qin Zheng's eyes slightly rose as she said, "Within three months, I have a plan to break through to Starer!"
"What plan?"
What she desired the most was to become stronger!
"You are already at the twelfth floor of the Blood Coagulation Stage, and your foundation is too robust. Breaking through to the Starer is not that easy, you will need the support of many spiritual energy. If you train step by step, there is almost no hope for you."
Qin Zheng's tone did not have a single ripple, as he spoke of the truth.
He was well aware of Jiu Muli's talent, and not to mention that just opening a profound vein during his breakthrough would require an extremely abundant amount of spiritual energy, it was absolutely impossible for Jiu Muli to open a single profound vein at a time just because of his talent alone.
Jiu Muli was silent, then nodded: "So you mean, we need spirit stone? Or is it a pill? "
The amount of spirit energy needed was too huge, so spirit stone were bound to have it. After all, the spirit energy contained within spirit stone was extremely pure, and other than that, the pill had to have it as well. However, her time was too short, it was only for three months.
"Your breakthrough requires a large number of spirit stone."
Qin Zheng nodded, and continued to speak: "But I don't have much spirit stone here anymore."
Furthermore, he had used his entire foundation when he broke through, coupled with the trouble he had suffered from Jiu Muli's attack last time and the huge loss he had suffered last time, he had truly seen the bottom of his heart now.
"Then …" Jiu Muli was speechless, and waited for Qin Zheng's next words.
