Chapter 476: Chapter 0476: Breakthrough! Three-star Peak!

"Pfft, even Xin Badao and Chu Batian couldn’t make me talk, what makes you two lowlifes think you can make me submit?"

Tang Ming scoffed dismissively, and with the situation as it was, he was even less likely to submit.

"Very well, then savor the poison we’ve prepared for you, only then can we truly relish the pleasure of revenge."

Poison Dragon Dominator grinned, pinching Tang Ming’s mouth open and pouring the Bone Melting Liquid down his throat.

"And this too." Mei Dufeng also eagerly funneled the Thousand Poison Flower Powder into Tang Ming.

Subsequently, Poison Dragon Dominator and Mei Dufeng fed him an array of slow-acting poisons like the Soul-breaking Pill and Soul Chasing Powder, laughing incessantly... Such a multitude of poisons almost made Tang Ming feel full just from ingesting them.

After swallowing a heap of poisons, Tang Ming immediately began writhing in agony on the ground. Having consumed so many poisons, he had no specific reactions left; his body convulsed, his face twisted grotesquely, a sight too horrendous to behold.

"Thrilling, finally, revenge is ours!" Poison Dragon Dominator laughed heartily, a look of utter satisfaction on his face.

"Indeed, it’s exhilarating. This kid was so arrogant before, today he finally got his comeuppance," Mei Dufeng said, visibly relieved as he watched Tang Ming’s extreme agony, then turned to Poison Dragon Dominator with concern:

"Senior brother, we’ve fed him so much poison, what if it kills him?"

"Don’t worry, this guy’s hands and feet are tied, and all the poisons we’re giving him are the torturous kind; they won’t kill anyone!"

Poison Dragon Dominator replied nonchalantly with a laugh, picking up the medicine kit and headed out, "Let’s go back and concoct some more tormenting poisons. As long as this kid doesn’t confess, we’ll torture him every single day."

"Alright!" Mei Dufeng hurried out after him, excitedly suggesting:

"I think now we should give this kid some harsh aphrodisiacs, make him suffer to death!"

"That’s a great idea, junior brother. Once the Sect Leader and Great Elder lose interest in him, we’ll feed him the aphrodisiacs and put him with a sow, that would be an exciting scene!"

Poison Dragon Dominator laughed, filled with anticipation.

Not long after Poison Dragon Dominator and Mei Dufeng had left, the painfully struggling Tang Ming in the cell suddenly lay still.

By now, Tang Ming’s skin had turned black, and black blood oozed from his seven orifices, yet he had not stopped breathing!

"Hum!"

A few minutes later, a dull sound suddenly emanated from within Tang Ming.

Tang Ming’s eyes snapped open, flickering with excitement. He immediately got up, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and focused carefully.

"My meridians are back!"

A moment later, Tang Ming muttered excitedly, by then, a massive amount of Poison Power had gathered in his Dantian, and this Poison Power was frantically sprinting throughout his body with the Dantian as the center, rejuvenating the long-lost Meridians where it passed.

Following this discovery, Tang Ming hurriedly inhaled and secretly circulated his Poison Skill, controlling the Poison Power in his body to surge through areas where some Meridians had disappeared, and astonishingly, under the impact of the Poison Power, he actually uncovered the vanished Meridians which had originally been in a hidden state and were only expanded by the sweeping Poison Power.

Tang Ming circulated his Poison Skill through a Grand Circulation, declaring all Meridians in his body restored, and his Cultivation broke through directly to Three-star, and as he digested the Poison Power, his Cultivation continued to ascend.

"I understand now, the diagnosis I had with Old Master An before was wrong, my Meridians weren’t shattered, they had shrunk and hidden."

Tang Ming, while silently cultivating, suddenly pondered the reason.

Originally, Tang Ming, determined to die together with Shi Tou, had unleashed all the Energy in his body in one go, and although he ultimately injured Shi Tou, he was left without a trace of Energy in his body, moreover, that Energy Explosion caused significant harm to him, which is why his Meridians ended up hidden.

To give an analogy, Tang Ming’s Meridians were like an air-filled balloon, the air inside being the various types of Energy within his body. If all the air from the balloon were released, the balloon would suddenly deflate, and under the influence of heat, the balloon skin would stick together.

Tang Ming’s Meridians were just like that, after being completely drained of power, logically, his Meridians should have just shriveled, not disappeared, but that Energy Explosion acted like the heat applied to the balloon, under its impact, Tang Ming’s Meridians completely shriveled and hid away.

Because the Meridians were hidden, Tang Ming was unable to cultivate, and he couldn’t use his Cultivation, which resulted in his Cultivation being ruined.

If it were any ordinary person experiencing this situation, without the interference of a formidable external force, they would likely never be able to relocate the vanished Meridians in their lifetime, but Tang Ming’s body was extraordinary, his body naturally capable of absorbing Poison Power, and his blood inherently had detoxifying properties. While these poisons could cause pain, they wouldn’t be lethal.

Under normal circumstances, with his Meridians shriveled and hidden, Tang Ming would be unable to cultivate, and it would be nearly impossible for him to break open those shriveled, stuck-together Meridians using his own strength.

But this time, members of the Poison Sect had made him ingest a massive amount of Poison, causing this Poison Power to converge in the Dantian, continuously expanding until it finally began to forcibly open those shriveled Meridians.

To make a deflated, stuck-together balloon inflate again, it is absolutely impossible to start from the inside of the balloon, the only method is to blow air back into the opening of the balloon. Once there’s enough air, the balloon will naturally inflate.

The Poison fed to Tang Ming by the Poison Sect was exactly the air needed to reinflate the balloon. When he started taking the Bone Melting Liquid, because this poison’s power was not sufficient to expand Tang Ming’s hidden Meridians, he experienced extreme pain when the Poison Power acted.

However, as Chu Batian, Poison Dragon Dominator, and Mei Dufeng later fed him a substantial amount of potent toxins, the accumulated Poison Power reached a level sufficient to reinflate the Meridians, and his Cultivation was thus restored.

"Ha!"

Having understood the underlying principle, Tang Ming shouted, directly breaking all the ropes binding him, then rapidly formed seals with both hands, cultivating to digest the Poison Power in his body.

This time, Tang Ming first took the Bone Melting Liquid, then the Three Corpse Brain Elixir, and was finally fed an unknown amount of potent toxins by Poison Dragon Dominator and Mei Dufeng, the Poison Power within his body was truly enormous.

As Tang Ming cultivated to digest the Poison Power inside him, his Cultivation not only broke through to Three-star, but continued to ascend, and when all the Poison Power had been digested, his Cultivation reached the peak of Three-star.

"Exhilarating, this is truly exhilarating!"

Tang Ming took a long breath, releasing a gust of foul air, and laughed heartily, feeling extremely relieved both physically and mentally.
