CHAPTER 77: CHAPTER 77: GROTTO HEAVEN QI CULTIVATION, THREE-LOCK LIMIT BREAK

Su Tu closed the chat window speechlessly. He knew that continuing to talk nonsense with the other party was worthless, as it was obvious that the person had no intention of deleting the video.

He planned to ask Brother Hu for help later and give the opponent a small shock of privilege.

"Brother Tu, you’re awesome!!" As he entered the martial arts center, Fat Zhuge gave him a thumbs up.

Luo Fan just smiled silently, and judging by the expressions of others, it seemed they had all seen the video.

Seeing this, Su Tu could only shake his head speechlessly.

What on earth is all this!

Actually, he didn’t care about other matters; he was just afraid of affecting his and Li Hu’s plan to contact the Three Deceits Cult.

After all, with this trend, as long as the lunatics from the Three Deceits Cult could still access the internet, the man in white would definitely recognize him.

He only feared that the opponent might develop other thoughts, making the situation troublesome.

"You’ve broken open acupoints again, haven’t you?" Tang Yangwu could immediately see a person’s transformation.

Su Tu nodded and said, "Ah, inexplicably..."

"Got it, got it, inexplicably broke open acupoints, right." Mo Ya picked up the conversation, reiterating Su Tu’s famous line.

This sentence had been said so many times by Su Tu over the past half month that everyone was already numb to it.

To be honest, if one day Su Tu suddenly reached the Hundred Acupoints level or even broke through to Mingtiao, they wouldn’t be surprised, because humans can’t be compared to those with cheats.

"Turn it off, it’s meaningless, really." Luo Fan assumed the Basic Skill stance, his state of mind having changed, now he loved to joke.

Listening to his classmates, Su Tu could only shrug helplessly.

Why does no one believe him when he tells the truth? Today’s breaking acupoints happened inexplicably.

Throwing all sorts of distracting thoughts aside, Su Tu began to circulate his Qi and practiced his Basic Skill.

As he became more familiar with the Immortal Burial, he increasingly felt the magic of this Basic Skill. Every time he thought he had fully mastered it, new insights would arise in his heart.

Soon, Su Tu was immersed in it.

[You practiced Immortal Burial for twenty minutes, gaining Body Strengthening Proficiency +10..]

[You practiced...]

[...]

[You practiced Immortal Burial for a hundred minutes, gaining Body Strengthening Proficiency +10]

[Strengthen Body (Middle Tier): 875/1000]

The system prompts kept popping up.

But at this moment, Su Tu’s attention was not on the prompts. Unlike usual when he was immersed in the sense of achievement from getting stronger, he was introspecting himself now.

Inside his body, the Qi flowing through the acupoints was like independent mountain veins, with a spiritual light appearing in his mind, a startling thought arose out of nowhere.

"The acupoints are the paths of Qi flow. Each time Qi passes through an acupoint, it augments the Qi, leaving part of it to nourish the Qi there. In this process, apart from Qi penetrating each acupoint, there’s no connection between acupoints."

"But, what if a self-circulating connection is constructed between the acupoints? Using Qi to connect the acupoints, changing the original river-like trend into a Grotto Heaven form would not only speed up the Qi’s efficiency but also enhance the acupoints’ strength."

Su Tu pondered this way.

Simply put, the original acupoints were like an assembly line constantly processing Qi, but Su Tu’s idea was to form a small cycle, a mini Grotto Heaven, like multiple assembly lines processing simultaneously.

If this idea succeeds, then his already fast acupoint-clearing speed might level up even further.

Thinking of this, Su Tu began to take action.

Qi’s circulation subtly changed at this moment. He linked the acupoints with Qi, forming a cycle. Qi flowed within, circulating repeatedly.

Su Tu could feel the Qi flowing faster inside his body, and more unusual changes were occurring....

.....

Inside the inner chamber.

"A Daoist Master summoned Main Star’s guardians for a meeting. Originally, I wanted to decline, but considering that Daoist Master knows the clan well, I decided to attend."

"While I’m away, take good care of those little fellows. Even if you encounter that beast, don’t strike rashly. It’s still asleep, a piece of trash only knows how to consume blood and flesh, but if stimulated, the thing inside will awaken and you won’t be able to handle it."

Zhou Wuliang instructed Li Hu who stood in front of him.

"Understood, Master, last night..." Li Hu began to report what happened at the Martial Arts Department.

But Zhou Wuliang waved his hand and said.

"I’m getting senile, no use hearing too much; but our family children cannot be bullied by outsiders, whoever bullies them, just beat them up."

Li Hu heard this with a slight smile on his lips, thinking how his master remained the same, just like when he was picked up by him in the famine-stricken interstellar disaster area...

He felt a bit touched, but looking up, he saw his master waving his hand like fanning the air, that little bit of emotion vanished into thin air.

It’s no wonder little Tu says you’re an old guy who loves exaggerating numbers.

"Luo Fan should be impacting the Hundred Acupoints soon, keep an eye on him. Yang Wu needs to enhance physical grinding, Mo Ya should hone her techniques, let the other kids follow their routine."

"Master, what about little Tu?" Li Hu asked cautiously.

Zhou Wuliang shot a glimpse at Li Hu and said, "Can you teach that kid?"

"Who knows? Maybe I can. I’m a genius too, okay! Chi Biao Li Hu is a notable name in our generation!" Li Hu replied stubbornly.

He actually knew how astonishing Su Tu’s talent was but wanted to boast a bit more.

Certain day, Senior Li Hu instructs Martial God Su in the cultivation of XXXX, isn’t that splendid!

Before they could say much more, Zhou Wuliang’s expression suddenly changed.

He seemed to sense something, grabbed Li Hu, broke through the air in an instant, and appeared directly in the Body Tempering Room.

At this moment, the students were all looking at Su Tu with bewildered eyes.

He maintained the Basic Skill posture of Immortal Burial, the Qi surrounding him reflected inside his body as if multiple grotto heavens emitting divine light were floating in it. Though he wasn’t breaking acupoints further, the Qi he expressed was several times more terrifying than that of an ordinary person.

Luo Fan even felt that even if he broke a hundred acupoints, the Qi he was bolstered with might not surpass Su Tu’s.

"This is..."

"Grotto Heaven Qi Cultivation, Three-Lock Limit Break!" Zhou Wuliang looked at Su Tu, pronouncing each word precisely.

"Now, do you still think you can teach him?"

Hearing these words, Li Hu’s eyes narrowed with disbelief.

"Three-Lock Limit Break, how is this possible, junior brother, he’s only seventy-six... um... seventy-seven... damn, how did he break another acupoint again! Even if he’s seventy-eight, it doesn’t reach the Three-Lock Limit Break!"

"Even if he broke through, who taught him!"

Zhou Wuliang subtly squeezed his hand, calmly saying, "A talent, how can common people compare, indeed has the grace of my youth."

"Uh, Master, it’s hard to keep up the pretense, let’s just drop it, your hand is almost cramping from squeezing."

And at that moment, Su Tu had no idea what was happening outside.

At that moment, his Immortal Burial started operating automatically, his heart and spirit returned to a chaotic, desolate world again.

This time, unlike the magnificent starry sky he saw when he first understood the Basic Skill, he was standing in a dark void, where majestic figures were pierced by chains hanging in nothingness, like a hunter’s exhibit.

Twisted, filthy tentacles screamed, only to be swallowed by a large mouth the next moment. As it chewed, a few drops of blood fell and transformed into several black creatures attempting to escape.

In the void above, a few dead terrifying giant beasts were nailed to the sky, each exuding an aura like Evil Gods, even in death, Su Tu couldn’t see their true form.

And their bodies were pinned there, manipulated into a single character, the character was...

East...
