The Emperor of the Three Realms

chapter 10

Jiang Chen had previously started training his body since the age of six. Given his fifteen years of age, he had spent seven or eight years clearing out three acupoints, and fusing together three true qi meridians.    

Reaching three meridians true qi would be an incredible achievement if he was the son of another ordinary family.    

But he was the son of a duke, and was born with a golden spoon in his mouth. His bloodline is good, resources are plentiful, and his potential is incredible. To reach only three meridians of true qi after years of training was a failure among failures.    

“To be honest, Duke Jiang Han was a father who sided with his son unconditionally and was quite forgiving.” Jiang Chen let out a light sigh amidst the laughter, but not depression.    

“Twelve true qi levels. Heh, if I remember correctly, this is a kind of basic training, just a small cycle of the cultivation path. This is the lowest level of existence among all types of training. In my past life, I was the guardian of the Tianlang Library, and was well versed in all aspects of divine and general knowledge. Now that I am reincarnated, how can I practice on such an insignificant path?”    

Even though he thought this way, the reality was cruel and strange. Although it was filled with wisdom and theory, he could only resignedly undergo this negligible cultivation path with his current body condition.    

With his current body, he would probably train to the death and still not show anything if he immediately started practicing various great methods.    

Jiang Chen was a little depressed. It's like sitting and enjoying a delicious dish from land and sea, but he's only limited to pairing root pickles with rice.    

However, Jiang Chen was not as desperate as he knew –    

“Everyone's path of cultivation is the same. Many geniuses had emerged from the commoners to rise to legendary positions. But didn't they all start by practicing the same little martial method? I will adhere to the customs of this place and will even improve this small method.”    

Jiang Chen was quite confident.    

As soon as he thought about this, his entire being became spontaneously happy.    

“Haha, I'm thinking too much now. Isn't this a big joke that I want to change the laws of cultivation once I arrive in this world? Although I cannot practice many great methods, don't I have many ways to accelerate my progress in this paltry realm of true qi, and pursue the great one?”    

Jiang Chen was completely out of ideas if he wanted to use this body to practice grand methods. But practicing small methods in the field of true qi – he had a lot of ideas back then.    

“Si this idiot, no wonder the original qi is so weak. How could his original qi increase when he fished for three days and stocked the net for two days?”    

“Dan, the way he used to circulate qi is simply not true. This breathing method is completely unreasonable.”    

“Gosh, did this brat spend a little effort to train? How could he mis-sort the actual circulation of qi? Amazing characters!”    

“This is laughable. One needed to clear twelve acupoints, but the practitioners in this world did not have a method to map out their acupoints. Exploration even required?”    

Jiang Chen discovered some problems after some random qi circulation.    

The most hysterical thing is that it is a very difficult test every time a practitioner clears the acupuncture points. There is a lot of trial and error involved.    

It is obvious that acupuncture points are randomly scattered in the body of every practitioner, for no reason or reason.    

But, doesn't this world have a method to find acupuncture points?    

Jiang Chen identified several methods to find acupuncture points just by tracing his memories randomly. But what he didn't know was that if the method he randomly picked up from these memories were disseminated to the world, it would cause a great fever and upheaval.    

“Ai, it seems that the ordinary circumstances in which I reincarnated are indeed quite weak, weak to the bottom.” Jiang Chen had gained a further understanding of his specific life at this moment.    

At the very least, they were very bad in terms of training methods.    

“Perhaps, the Eastern Kingdom lacks resources only in the field of training? Are they stronger in other fields?” Jiang Chen had no intention of ignoring anyone. He had no right to underestimate the Eastern Kingdom though.    

After all, even though he was filled with the secrets of the universe, with his current level of training, any random practitioner on the streets of the capital could destroy it as easily as stepping on an ant.    

Jiang Chen corrected and fixed every problem he had found before. He made use of his three meridians and started circulating the three meridians qi in his body.    

At first, due to his lack of experience, Jiang Chen found controlling qi rather difficult.    

He became more proficient, and controlling three meridians qi became easier after several cycles.    

At first, the movement of qi was very slow, like a worm moving through the ground. The movement gets faster for a few hours. Suddenly, three meridians of qi rumbled towards some part of the body.    

It was like three floods that flooded the plains, completely collapsed and submerged the dam.    

A comfortable feeling that almost made one want to cry complacently filled Jiang Chen's body, and a stream of blood instantly flowed into his brain.    

His whole self felt very comfortable, as if he was about to fly.    

That stream of feeling formed a stream of hot air and flowed into the meridians like a gentle spring rain, spontaneously creating a new pathway within his body.    

Fourth qi acupuncture point, clean!    

Four meridians true qi!    

That said, this body had good potential from the start. Jiang Chen had summed up the training key points from his memories and had corrected his past mistakes. Results instantly.    

The three miserable original qi meridians had immediately risen to four true qi meridians!    

And he, Jiang Chen, had taken a step out of the early qi realm and joined the ranks of the true qi intermediate realm!    

That's not an easy road. He was the son of the great Celestial Emperor in his past life, but was unable to train due to his yin condition. He had waited millions of years; he waited until the disaster had arrived and obtained the right to practice because of his reincarnation.    

How could Jiang Chen not have mixed feelings when he thought of everything that had happened before?    

The current Jiang Chen was like a glutton from ancient times: full of hunger and greed for cultivation.    

After he stabilized the fourth meridian true qi, he chose the “Resonance True Acupuncture Point method and easily determined the location of the fifth acupuncture point.    

Of course, Jiang Chen knew that finding the fifth acupoint was an easy matter. But to remove these acupoints and receive true qi of the fifth level was not that simple.    

True Qi would not be pure if the foundation was not solid. He had just completed the fourth meridian and had yet to construct it. There was no way that it could withstand such a strong impact. It would all be futile if he could not wait to advance and damage his meridians.    

Therefore, the next step was to temper the four meridians he already controlled, and utilize the four true qi meridians.    

As for the way to temper the meridians, he had an awful lot, whether it was a method of training or refining medicines. He would be able to continue at a speed of ten or a hundred times the speed of others.    

This was his advantage, an advantage that no genius could match!    

A genius?    

In this world, what genius was more brilliant than the son of the Celestial Emperor?    

“It looks like the “Resonance True Acupuncture Point method actually found the acupuncture point. I worry because of various circumstances, this method may not be effective. It seems that the martial path all leads to the same result, although many different ways.”    

Jiang Chen was a little complacent, as he knew that the use of the “Resonance True Acupuncture Point method alone was enough to place him in front of the other young geniuses.    

After all, the genius practitioners in this world needed to meditate, explore, and reflect in order to find acupoints and clear meridians.    

But he, he was able to directly find the acupoints through methods that were not included in his class. This meant that he could save a lot of time compared to others.    

“Indeed, flaws in training methods can directly limit the progress of practitioners in a region.” Jiang Chen was complaining a little.    

In reality, geniuses were not separated by class. But, there was a difference in the rank of one's potential to train.    

How much time can be saved with the best resources and knowledge? How many winding paths can geniuses avoid?    

Jiang Chen had increased his confidence in his future in the martial dao thanks to this thought.    

It was almost dusk when he left the training room. He had been there for ten whole hours. This would definitely be the main gossip in the duke's palace if word got out. One had to know that the longest time Jiang Chen trained before was four hours.    

“Eh? Jiang Zheng's? What are you doing here?"    

After pushing the door open, Jiang Chen was slightly surprised to see Jiang Zheng sitting in front of the door.    

“Duke young, happy news!” Jiang Zheng wasn't the type to show his heart up his sleeve, but he had been sitting here since the afternoon. It was now dusk; he had a lot of good news but no one to share it with. He finally waited for the end of Jiang Chen's training, and was of course overjoyed.    

“Don't get angry, Jiang Zheng. So great was his excitement over such a small matter?” Jiang Chen chuckled. It seemed like Jiang Chen had managed to make the trip to the Hall of Healing.    

“Young Duke's plan is very precise. The people in the Hall were originally arrogant, but then respectful. They finally begged me in the end! And..” Jiang Zheng's traits were quite excited because he was so excited.    

“Jiang Zheng, let's talk about this small matter later. What about the ingredients I want?”    

“Here, they're all here!” Jiang Zheng's respect for his master grew even more. You must hand it over to the young master. He sees a business deal of that size as “small problem”.    

“Make sure the waiters prepare a large wooden tub, and bring some additional barrels filled with clear water to this secret room.” Jiang Chen ordered.    

"Your wish is my command."    

It could be said, Jiang Zheng was a commendable caretaker. He had fulfilled Jiang Chen's orders in less than an hour.    

“Alright, Jiang Zheng, why don't you just go home. Come here and wait for my order the next morning. Then give me a report on the pill recipe.”    

To be honest, the Heavenly Karma Pill was merely a tool to achieve goals in Jiang Chen's eyes. It was simply a way to resolve the economic crisis that lay before him.    

To be honest, he had absolutely no interest in the Heavenly Karma Pill or the economic impact it had caused. His attention was not on these things.    

Things would become easier now that he had these ingredients.    

He will be able to recover most of the whip wounds only after healing one night.    

This spirit level potion was the basic ingredient for the Heavenly Karma Pill. Although Jiang Chen was unable to completely refine the pill with his current foundation, he was unable to completely refine it, he would be able to achieve around thirty to forty percent of the healing properties of the pill through the use of certain techniques to combine its ingredients.    

That night, Jiang Chen permeated into the pill concoction into his body, and directed four meridians of true qi to continue repairing the internal damage.    

So, the night passed quietly…
