Chapter 487: Chapter 487: The Carriage that Returned

After leaving the caravan, Lu Xiao’s speed increased significantly.

He basically traveled during the day and found random places to cultivate at night.

In just a few days, one could say his strength had improved by leaps and bounds.

He had opened all nine Acupoints in the Transcendence Realm, which, according to the terminology here, meant he was at the Transcendent Ninth Layer.

One more step, and he would reach the Transcendent Realm.

However, Lu Xiao had a slightly different idea about this Transcendant Realm.

Normally, if he chose to break through using another Acupoint on his other arm, he would enter the Transcendent Realm.

But Lu Xiao always felt that the nine opened Acupoints shouldn’t just be there as mere reservoirs for Inner Qi.

The Acupoints should have some interconnected functions.

Thus, he didn’t rush to break through to the Transcendent Realm but continued to study those nine Acupoints.

He didn’t figure out the interconnections between the Acupoints, but he discovered something very interesting.

The Acupoints... seemed to also be capable of Energy Conversion via superpowers.

After Energy Conversion, the Acupoints were like the meridians; there were no other special changes except that the storage capacity for Inner Qi dramatically increased.

And so... Lu Xiao’s Energy Level dropped.

He fell from the Transcendent Ninth Layer directly down to the Transcendent Second Level.

The Inner Qi that was originally stored in all nine Acupoints was now only enough to fill two Acupoints.

To fill up the remaining seven Acupoints, he estimated it would take at least ten to fifteen days.

"This situation, why does it feel like that web novel I once read?" Feeling his own state, Lu Xiao couldn’t help but sigh.

He had read a novel online before, called "The Strongest Qi Cultivation."

It mentioned others breaking through at the 10th level of Qi Cultivation, while the protagonist took three thousand levels...

His current state was somewhat similar.

Unbeatable within the Transcendent Realm, and he could even fight low-level opponents in the realms beyond.

Once he fills the remaining seven empty Acupoints, he will most likely be unbeatable even within the realms beyond Transcendence.

"Tsk, it’s indeed a great tool for showing off," Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows.

"But compared to the night, it’s still far inferior," Lu Xiao started to complain again.

Over the past few nights, as he continuously absorbed the red light, the adaptability of his meridians to the red light was still crazily climbing.

Now he could stand under the red light for ten minutes, during which time he could completely adapt without having to release the red light from his body.

Even, these red lights could be compressed by the meridians into red lights of a higher Energy Level.

"At night, killing Demi Immortals like slaughtering dogs," Lu Xiao exclaimed.

"Still about a thousand kilometers to go..."

"Damn place, not even a single car around."

After putting away the map, Lu Xiao started to grumble again.

A thousand kilometers, even if he walked a hundred kilometers a day, it would still take ten days.

"Forget it, just consider it experiencing local flavors," he decided.

Initially, he had considered getting a horse to ride, which would speed up the journey.

But in the end, he gave up on that idea because he wasn’t traveling through cities but mostly through the wilderness.

If there was no shelter to be found, that horse would definitely be in trouble.

Why bother.

"Walk, walk, walk, we walk hand in hand, walk, walk, walk..." Lu Xiao hummed as he continued his journey.

Whether it was turning into night or if there was a stopping point up ahead, he couldn’t care less.

He even liked the night more now because he was strong at night.

"Make way!" A shout came from behind Lu Xiao, followed by the rapid sound of a carriage.

Lu Xiao turned his head to look, then obligingly stepped to the side of the road.

What? Should he make the other party come down to apologize and then not accept their apology and knock them down?

Forget it, that kind of stuff is too low, can’t show off with that.

Besides, the road wasn’t owned by Lu Xiao anyway, the other party’s carriage was fast, and calling for him to make way was no problem.

Rumble, rumble, rumble...

The carriage sped past quickly.

Watching the carriage travel into the distance, Lu Xiao felt a bit envious; truth be told, traveling by carriage was more comfortable.

Having a helmsman and a carriage with a pretty girl taking care of food and drink would be perfect.

About two minutes later, rumble, rumble, rumble—the carriage that had gone past returned.

Lu Xiao: ???

Rushed past like heading for reincarnation, why’s it back again?

Does it think I look displeasing and wants to beat me up?

That shouldn’t be the case.
