Even if he wanted to try, he could not do it right away. He had to find a quiet place.
In the evening, when the sun was setting, they entered an inn in a small town. Chu Li, Siao Shi, and Xiao Qi were arranged to stay in a small courtyard surrounded by Protectors. There were six Grandmasters in the courtyard.
The west room was lit with nine tallow candles. It was as bright as day.
Chu Li sat cross-legged on the bed, naked except for his shorts. His body was marked with one hundred and nine red and black spots. Mulin opened the three rows of silver boxes on the table. There were wooden needles, silver needles, and gold needles.
Xiao Qi stood at the side. She looked at the red spots on his body calmly as if Chu Li was still wearing clothes.
"Third Lady, if I run out of energy later, give me an Energy Pill." Mulin picked up a wooden needle and told Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi nodded.
"Okay, then let's start!" Mulin nodded. The wooden needle was about to pierce Chu Li but stopped. "Is the Spirit Blessing Pill ready?"
Xiao Qi nodded.
Mulin took a deep breath. His face was solemn.
Chu Li opened his eyes and sighed. "Elder Mulin, hurry up and start. I won't die!"
"You shut up!" Mulin glared at him. "Stop saying inauspicious things!"
Chu Li closed his eyes again and began to use his inner vision. "If the needle is not right, I will tell you."
"Okay." Mulin scoffed. "If there's anything wrong, tell me immediately!"
Chu Li said, "I know, I know. Hurry up!"
Mulin took a deep breath and slowly pierced the wooden needle.
Chu Li said, "No problem."
Mulin pierced another wooden needle. Chu Li continued to judge if it was right or not.
After a while, all thirty wooden needles were pierced. Every needle was precise and there were no mistakes.
After the thirty-six needles, Mulin wiped the sweat off his forehead. At least he did not make a mistake. However, it was easy at the beginning and difficult at the end. The more he did it, the easier it was to make a mistake. Once he made a mistake, the risk would be higher.
After the thirty-six silver needles were pierced, Mulin was sweating profusely.
Xiao Qi stared at Chu Li. She saw that Chu Li spoke calmly and his expression was calm. It was as if the needles were not pierced on him. She was here to save him if there was any danger.
Mulin looked at the golden needles in the box and gritted his teeth.
Gold needles were softer, and precise control of them required inner strength. If he was not careful, he would be in danger. He needed to insert the needles perfectly, which was much more difficult than using wooden needles or silver needles.
Xiao Qi said, "Elder Guo, take a break."
Mulin hesitated for a moment and nodded.
Xiao Qi picked up the porcelain bottle on the table and passed it to him. Guo Mulin swallowed a Vitality Pill and wiped his sweat. "Kid, be careful. If anything goes wrong, tell me immediately!"
Chu Li smiled and said, "Elder Guo, just go ahead and apply the needles. I'm not that delicate!"
"You little bastard!" Mulin scoffed. He picked up a golden needle and shook it lightly. The needle turned into a straight line and slowly pierced into Chu Li.
He inserted the needles very quickly. In a short while, he had inserted thirty-six needles, and only the last one was left.
Chu Li observed his body. He did not feel anything when the one hundred and eight needles pierced into his body. It was very strange. In normal acupuncture techniques, there would be a feeling when one pierced an acupuncture point. If one pierced more, the feeling should be stronger. However, this set of acupuncture techniques was the opposite. At the beginning, there was a numbness, but as the needles pierced into his body, the feeling became weaker and weaker. In the end, it was as if his whole body was anesthetized.
Mulin was sweating profusely. He wiped the sweat off his forehead. His bloodshot eyes stared at Chu Li's acupuncture point. The golden needles trembled slightly as if they were about to fly out. Guo Mulin was channeling his inner strength through the needles. This last needle required a unique heart technique.
The golden needles slowly approached Chu Li's acupuncture point. Guo Mulin's face became more and more serious.
Chu Li also stared at the golden needles. When they got close to his acupuncture point, a golden light flashed and the needles pierced into his acupuncture point.
"Buzz …" A soft whistle came from Chu Li's throat. The one hundred and nine needles shook violently at the same time. It was neat, like the wind blowing through the wheat.
Chu Li felt that all the pores on his body had opened up. They were frantically swallowing the spiritual energy from the void. The spiritual energy surged into his meridians and continuously strengthened them.
Chu Li suddenly had an idea. He suddenly activated the Sentient Menace. His whole body flashed with a golden light. His naked body looked like it was covered with a layer of golden powder. It was also emitting a golden light. It was as if he had turned into a golden Buddha.
Guo Mulin widened his eyes and looked at Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi shook her head and said, "There shouldn't be a problem."
"He …" Guo Mulin pointed at Chu Li. This was too abnormal.
"This is a martial art," Xiao Qi said.
Guo Mulin nodded. He did not expect the Sentient Menace. After all, it was the antique study of the Tempest Temple. No one else dared to cultivate it.
As time passed, the golden light on Chu Li's body gradually changed. It became darker and darker. It became a purplish gold. In the purplish gold, there was a hint of golden light. It was solemn and holy. It made people want to kneel down.
Unknowingly, half an hour had passed. The golden light on Chu Li's body converged and suddenly disappeared. Needles shot out from his body like a hedgehog.
A cold light flashed on Xiao Qi's waist. "Ding ding ding ding …" All the needles that were shot at her and Guo Mulin were deflected.
Chu Li opened his eyes. A golden light flashed in his eyes. The smile on his face spread like water ripples. He could not help but laugh out loud.
This time, it was a blessing in disguise. He had successfully cultivated the fourth stage of the Sentient Menace!
Guo Mulin quickly said, "Young man, how is it?"
Chu Li smiled and said, "Elder Guo, thank you!"
Guo Mulin said, "Is it done?"
"Yes!" Chu Li nodded.
Guo Mulin's eyes lit up. He laughed out loud. "Good! Good! "
Chu Li put on his green robe and smiled. "The Nine Transformation Meridian Reforming Technique is really amazing!"
"I was lucky!" Guo Mulin was so happy that he could not close his mouth. He shook his head and sighed. "What a pity, what a pity!"
Chu Li's inner vision was very powerful. He could clearly see his own acupuncture points. Changing another one would not work. So, the Nine Transformation Meridian Reforming Technique could only be performed on him. Other people could not do it. He could not perform it with his own ability. It was a pity.
Xiao Qi said, "Your martial art has improved, right?"
"I've mastered the fourth stage." Chu Li smiled.
Xiao Qi raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at him in surprise.
The fourth stage of the Sentient Menace was an extremely high level. It was almost invulnerable. Even if it was a Grandmaster's inner energy, it could block half of it.
Guo Mulin's smile disappeared. His face darkened and he scoffed. "Martial art, martial art again!"
Chu Li said, "God has not given up on me. Elder Guo, I have to thank you for this!"
"There is no good ending for martial arts!" Guo Mulin glared at him. He did not even keep the needles. He turned around and opened the door to leave.
Xiao Qi shook her head and laughed. This Elder Guo had a knot in his heart. She could not help it.
She looked at Chu Li. "Are your injuries healed?"
Chu Li got up from the bed and rotated his arm. He smiled and said, "I've fully recovered!"
"That's good." Xiao Qi said, "You stay in your original state for now."
Chu Li smiled. "I'll be a surprise soldier?"
"Yes, just in case. I hope I don't have to."
"Yes."
For the next few days, Chu Li kept lying down. He pretended to be seriously injured and observed the situation around him. He found that there was no one to harass him. The Ren Public House seemed to have disappeared. They were no longer interested in this group of people.
