Chapter 236 - Preach

The people of Pu Ban City were mostly simple and honest. People who committed a serious sin and were put into jail, were extremely rare. After those people had surrounded Ying Yunpeng’s hut and discussed him for a while, they lost interests in both Ji Hao and Ying Yunpeng, shook their heads and went back to their lifes.

Ying Yunpeng gave Ji Hao a few sneers, sat and crossed his legs, took a long deep breath and began cultivating.

Ji Hao hadn't noticed anything special during the daytime, but during the night, when the sky was thickly dotted with bright stars, Ji Hao clearly saw a relatively bigger star, grow much brighter than the others. The star was shining brightly and even looked like a pentacle from Ji Hao’ angle. Beams of extremely condensed, golden needles-like starlight descended from the air, continuously gushing into the Magus Acupoints of Ying Yunpeng.

Every beam of starlight was extremely pure and contained a great amount of power. The power contained in every beam of starlight equaled to the total amount of power contained in the Magus Acupoint of a Senior Magus. Within the span of only one breath, over ten beams of starlight would be absorbed by Ying Yunpeng’s body.

Ji Hao stared at Ying Yunpeng in shock for a while. He suddenly realized the great, scary difference between Magus Kings and Senior Magi.

Raising his head and looking at the starry sky, Ji Hao silently shook his head. A Magus King’s cultivation started from finding his or her own spirit star. From then on, he or she would be able to share powers with the spirit star, and every move of this Magus King would be improved by the special power, belonging to that spirit star.

Pondering over this for a while, Ji Hao began his own cultivation as well.

The cell of the jail was only made from four bamboos and one straw roof, without anything to block people’s eyesight, therefore, even sleeping in this kind of cell would be quite embarrassing to Ji Hao. Except cultivation, he could think of no other thing to do.

Slowly activating all the power contained in his meridians, he transformed the streams of power into a sharp and solid drill, continuously drilling a new Magus Acupoint. The power contained in his meridians were relatively withy, perfect for awakening new Magus Acupoints.

As for the power contained in a awakened Magus Acupoint, which was way too condensed and great, could only be used in ordinary cultivation, instead of awakening new Magus Acupoints.

Because the new Magus Acupoints were as fragile as eggs, if the power contained in the already awakened Magus Acupoint would be used to awaken them, it would be easy to lose control of that fierce and violent power. This could result in smashing the new, tender Magus Acupoint into pieces, causing the Magus to lose a precious Acupoint.

Ordinary Senior Magi never cultivated their souls and spiritual power, therefore, they couldn’t exert precise control over the great and violent power contained in their awakened Magus Acupoints. Ever since the magic cultivation system was invented, all Senior Magi would only use power contained in their meridians to awake their new Magus Acupoints, and all foundational power of their newly awakened Magus Acupoints came from their meridians, and had nothing to do with their already woken Magus Acupoints.

However, Ji Hao had been cultivating with the [Mantra Dan of Nine Secret Words] since he had been a little kid, which allowed him to freely control his soul and spiritual power, which was hundreds of times greater than ordinary Senior Magi. His spiritual power was sensitive, therefore, every time when he awakened a new Magus Acupoint, he could always transfer a slight stream of power into the new Magus Acupoint from those already awakened Magus Acupoints. Therefore, every newly awakened Magus Acupoints of his would be slightly more powerful than the previous one.

You probably wouldn’t be able to tell any difference when he had only ten or twenty Magus Acupoints, but until this number grew to a hundred, two hundred, a thousand, two thousands, even ten thousands, the power contained in Ji Hao’s newly awakened Magus Acupoints at that time, would be much greater than those foundational power contained in his meridians.

Step by step, and to rise abruptly based on accumulated power. Ji Hao had already surprisingly discovered that he now had a better foundation and body condition than the others.

Half an hour later, a popping sound came from his body, a red spot lit up on Ji Hao’s left shoulder - another new Magus Acupoint had been awakened. All power contained in his meridians and one percent of power contained in the three awakened Magus Acupoints, which were located near the newly awakened one, simultaneously gushed into the newly awakened Magus Acupoint. After that, this Magus Acupoint began expanding rapidly, and large streams of sweat gushed out of Ji Hao’s skin.

“Little bastard,” Ying Yunpeng opened his eyes and threw an angry glance at Ji Hao.

“Old pig,” Ji Hao opened his eyes as well, showing the whites of his eyes towards Ying Yunpeng.

The two of them glanced at each other angrily, then closed their eyes simultaneously, continuing their cultivation.

This was a quiet night, no one stayed around the two of them except the two muscular men living in cells relatively close to Ji Hao and Ying Yunpeng, who were bored, and were staring at Ji Hao and Ying Yunpeng, their eyes filled with admiration.
