"The replacement of meridians involves the Blood Reincarnation of Ancient Sages, and it's an extremely complicated process. I had to look through countless ancient books before I finally found a solution …"
Yang shi explained.
"Blood Reincarnation?"
Zhang Xuan was stunned.
"Indeed. Once one's cultivation reaches Ancient Sage, one will be able to achieve Blood Reincarnation. As long as a single droplet of blood remains, one will be able to come back to life," Yang shi explained.
"This …"
Zhang Xuan's heart jolted in astonishment.
If he recalled correctly, Vicious was at the Blood Reincarnation realm. This was also the reason why he was able to come back to life even after his body was shattered.
However, unlike the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, humans were born with extremely long lifespans. Even if a human were to reach Ancient Sage, his lifespan would still be far inferior to that of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe.
Given that he was able to come back to life even after being shattered, reconstructing meridians should be a walk in the park!
"My student, Zhao Ya, has her meridians shattered. I would like to help her recover. What do you think I should do?"
Knowing that this wasn't the time to be asking Vicious, Zhang Xuan turned to Yang shi and asked.
"Her meridians have been shattered?"
A moment later, Yang shi's complexion turned grim. "Indeed. Her meridians have been shattered. It'll be extremely difficult for her to recover from such a condition … "
"Extremely difficult?"
Zhang Xuan frowned.
"Indeed. The people whom I have helped reconstruct their meridians previously had their meridians shattered because they were nearing the end of their lifespan, so all they needed to do was to reconnect them. However, Lady Zhao's meridians have been completely shattered, leaving nothing behind. She needs to be reconstructed once and for all. More importantly... her cultivation is simply too weak. With my method, the chances of success are slim to none!"
Yang shi shook his head.
"What exactly is your method? Can you tell me more about it? I'll see if I can help her! "
Ignoring Yang shi's words, Zhang Xuan continued asking.
While Yang shi might think that it would be difficult for him to succeed, he possessed the Library of Heaven's Path. As long as he knew the method, he would be able to deduce the flaws in the other party's meridians and find the correct path.
Perhaps, he might just be able to find the most suitable method to succeed.
"It's actually very simple. You just have to find a high-tier saint beast and remove its meridians before using a special technique to replace them. As the meridians of saint beasts are no different from those of humans, even though it's not as easy to use as a human, it's not too far off!"
Yang shi said.
"Use the meridians of saint beasts?"
Zhang Xuan frowned.
This was similar to the organ replacement in his previous life. Using a special method, he would cut off another person's body and replace it with another person's.
"Even Saint Beasts have different constitutions, and the same goes for their meridians. I don't think just any Saint Beast can do it!"
He pondered for a moment before replying.
Humans have different blood types and physical constitutions, so it is normal for organs to reject each other. Swapping the meridians of a Saint Beast into a human body should also be a problem.
"Of course, they must be of the same constitution … Your student possesses the Pure Yin Body, and beasts possessing the Pure Yin Body don't even exist in the world … That's why I said that it's extremely difficult, or perhaps even impossible!"
Yang shi shook his head.
"This …"
Zhang Xuan fell silent.
It was extremely difficult for even a human to have a Pure Yin Body, let alone a Saint Beast. It was practically impossible to find a Pure Yin Body.
"Teacher, if he can't recover, then he can't recover. Actually, this is pretty good …"
Listening to the conversation between the two, Zhao Ya smiled.
Her teacher had been helping her all this while, and if it really couldn't work out, she could only accept it as the will of the heavens. There was no need to force it.
"Don't worry. Since I said that I can treat your meridians, I'll definitely be able to!"
Zhang Xuan waved his hand. "Other than this, is there any other way?"
"This …" Yang shi hesitated for a moment before replying, "Based on the information I have gathered, it's indeed difficult to find a Pure Yin Body. However, if you really can't find one, you can use some powerful plants to replace it!"
"Plants?"
"Indeed. Plants don't have too many attributes, so they can be used as a replacement for meridians. However, the tier of plants is usually very low, so once you use them, your future accomplishments will be limited. "
Yang shi explained.
No matter how formidable a thousand-year-old saint herb was, there was no way it could compare with a Saint Beast. While it could also reconstruct one's meridians, it could only preserve one's life. It would be difficult for one to cultivate to higher realms with it.
"That's true. Unless it's a very high-tier plant, it's indeed difficult to find … Hmm?"
Just as Zhang Xuan was at a loss as to what to do, a thought suddenly came to his mind. He slapped his forehead and exclaimed, "The vine of the Dongxu Gourd!"
The vine of the Dongxu Gourd was capable of absorbing even lightning, and it harnessed its own dimension. Its strength was comparable to that of a Saint 8-dan cultivator. If it was used to replace one's meridians, it would probably be many times more effective than that of a Saint 8-dan beast!
After all, not even a Saint Beast would dare devour lightning!
Hu!
With such thoughts in mind, Zhang Xuan flicked his wrist and took out the vine. He turned to Yang shi and said, "Junior, can you take a look at this?"
"This?"
Taken aback, Yang shi quickly took a look at the vine, and a moment later, his eyes widened in astonishment. "W-what is that?"
Even with his eye of discernment, he was actually unable to recognize what it was.
"It's the vine of the Dongxu Gourd!"
Zhang Xuan explained.
"Dongxu Gourd?" Yang shi was taken aback. "No, that's not right. I have seen the Dongxu Gourd before, and its vine doesn't look like this at all. This vine has been nourished by the spirit vein for at least ten thousand years, and it harnesses the laws of space and lightning … If the Dongxu Gourd had such abilities, it would have long been nurtured by others!"
"This …"
Zhang Xuan blinked his eyes in confusion. "Perhaps it's because the vine has absorbed a significant amount of lightning energy?"
"That's not the case. The Dongxu Gourd might be a powerful plant, but in the face of lightning, it would still flee as far as it could. After all, it's a punishment from the heavens, so it's impossible for it to absorb lightning energy!"
Yang shi shook his head.
"Let's not talk about what the vine is for now. I just want to know if it can be used to replace one's meridians," Zhang Xuan said.
The Dongxu Gourd had been left behind by Ancient Sage Qiu Wu back then, and as soon as it appeared, it had dived into his dantian, refusing to come out no matter what. It was indeed a little bizarre. However, this was not the time for him to be analyzing it.
"It harnesses the laws of space and lightning energy, so it's definitely the ideal material to replace one's meridians. If Zhao Ya can use it to reforge her meridians, her cultivation will surely rise to new heights. Perhaps, she might even be able to push for a breakthrough to Ancient Sage!"
Yang shi said as his eyes lit up in excitement.
The energy harnessed within the vine was unfathomably profound, such that even he found it hard to decipher it. If he could reforge it into meridians and fuse it into his body, he would surely be able to drive his zhenqi much more easily. In fact, he might even be able to store more zhenqi, allowing his cultivation to rise to an astonishing level.
"That's great!"
Hearing that it was possible to replace one's meridians, Zhang Xuan clenched his fists tightly as he heaved a sigh of relief.
