: Reshaping the Meridians

Lu Jianghe had anticipated this, and his expression remained unchanged.

He sat upright in place, casually flicking his sleeves.

The six green rays were like birds caught in an invisible spider web, instantly frozen in mid-air.

He spread his five fingers and grabbed six pills, each the size of a longan, perfectly round, and with a jade-like luster. These pills were forcibly restrained and finally hovered about an inch above Lu Jianghe's outstretched palm, spinning endlessly on their own.

Lu Jianghe stood up and removed some of the outer restrictions. "Miss Ruyin, the pill has been refined. The time is right. Now I will eradicate the Dragon Roar Body from you."

A sound came from the quiet room.

"Thank you for your help, Senior Lu. Ruyin... is ready."

Lu Jianghe looked down at the six emerald green pills floating in his palm, his tone calm: "Meridian reconstruction requires a complete overhaul of the foundation, and this process cannot be interrupted. Miss Ruyin, please change into some casual clothes."

"……good."

Xin Ruyin responded very softly, her tone devoid of any emotion.

Before long, another voice came from the quiet room.

"Senior Lu, I'm ready."

Lu Jianghe put the Seven Star Pill Furnace into his storage bag and went inside.

Looking up, Xin Ruyin was wrapped in a light pink gauze, her two smooth arms were completely exposed, and she was kneeling on the ground, her graceful posture perfectly outlining her slender waist.

She was only wearing this one undergarment.

At first glance, it doesn't seem particularly striking, but upon closer inspection, it becomes increasingly intriguing.

Ultimately, she was still a young girl. When Lu Jianghe entered, Xin Ruyin lowered her head slightly, not daring to look him in the eye.

This was the first time she had ever dressed so lightly, almost completely naked, in front of a man...

Although it was necessary for treatment, this act of proactively revealing herself still made her feel ashamed.

"Throughout the process, it may be very painful, so please try to stay awake."

As Lu Jianghe spoke, two of the six emerald green pills floating in his palm slowly drifted to Xin Ruyin's front.

"Just in case, put these two in your mouth first. Remember, just hold them in your mouth, don't swallow them. Follow my instructions."

His tone was calm, yet carried a hint of meticulous consideration.

Xin Ruyin nodded gently, took the two pills, and put them in her mouth without hesitation.

The pill felt slightly cool upon entering the mouth, carrying an indescribable herbal fragrance.

With them in her mouth, Xin Ruyin's cheeks inevitably puffed up slightly, adding a touch of childlike innocence and cuteness to her originally elegant face.

Lu Jianghe casually released a burst of spiritual energy, and Xin Ruyin's entire body was gently lifted up, lying flat and floating in mid-air.

The next moment, Lu Jianghe pointed his fingers like a sword and gently touched Xin Ruyin's brow.

A glimmer of light flashed, and suddenly a gash appeared, but no blood flowed out.

Almost at the same instant, Lu Jianghe loosely clenched his fist, and a semi-transparent stream of "water" flowed from his fingertips.

Then it was precisely inserted into the invisible crack between Xin Ruyin's eyebrows.

At the moment of penetration, Xin Ruyin's entire body trembled violently.

A suppressed, almost heart-wrenching groan escaped from her tightly closed lips.

She bit her lower lip so hard she could barely breathe, her muscles tense like a bowstring, as if she were enduring unimaginable torture.

Is this very painful?

This is absolutely the most extreme form of torture!

It's like crushing every bone in your body, then peeling away every strand of flesh and blood.

That's not wrong.

Because Lu Jianghe's goal was to completely disintegrate and shatter all the old meridians in her body that had been twisted and rigidened due to the Dragon Roar Body, along with their foundation.

If it weren't for the immense vitality contained in the "White Bone Regenerating Flesh" elixir protecting the blood and internal organs, such an act would be tantamount to being slowly sliced ​​to death.

If the pills were old enough and their potency enough to reverse life and death, he could even grind Xin Ruyin down to bones and then reshape her body, which would be even more thorough.

Today, the effort he puts in and the precision of his control far surpass the latter by a hundredfold.

Xin Ruyin's body convulsed uncontrollably in the void, each tremor representing the gradual annihilation of her internal meridians.

Cold sweat instantly soaked through her thin apricot-colored undergarment, clinging tightly to her voluptuous curves.

Her elegant and beautiful face was contorted with extreme pain, and countless beads of blood began to seep from her body.

At the same time, Xin Ruyin's vital energy rapidly declined at a visible speed, and her life force flickered like a candle in the wind, about to be extinguished.

It was on the verge of extinction.

At this point, even forcing oneself to swallow pills would be futile.

"Throat pain!"

Just as Xin Ruyin's consciousness was completely dissipating amidst boundless pain, two words exploded directly on her collapsing soul.

With the last ounce of her barely perceptible strength, she struggled to loosen her jaw.

The two pills in his mouth finally rolled down and slid into his throat and into his stomach.

"Ugh—!"

This time, Xin Ruyin could no longer suppress her emotions; she arched her bare feet and let out a painful groan.

A violent yet vibrant torrent surged forth along the meridian channels that had just been completely "emptied".

Suddenly, the pores all over her body opened up, and wisps of visible emerald green light burst forth along with the rising blood vapor, enveloping her in a hazy halo.

Lu Jianghe kept his finger techniques unchanged, using the art of controlling vital energy to guide the medicinal power and begin to reshape his meridians.

Wherever it passes, the meridians sprout and grow rapidly, spreading and intertwining like tender buds after rain.

Xin Ruyin lost consciousness completely due to the violent impact, her limbs limp and hanging limply in the air.

A moment later.

The emerald green light that emanated from her body finally began to slowly recede, her breath gradually subsided, and only her body continued to tremble from time to time.

With a casual gesture, Lu Jianghe silently healed the crack between Xin Ruyin's eyebrows without leaving a trace, and her body fell from mid-air to lie on the bed.

The initial process of reshaping the meridians has been completed, but the medicinal effects are still being nurtured.

This coma is likely to last for another three to five days.

At this moment, Xin Ruyin's internal meridians had been completely disrupted and reshaped, and her cultivation level had plummeted from the original eighth level of Qi Refining to almost zero, eventually settling at the first level of Qi Refining.

This regression is an unavoidable price to pay.

Fortunately, from now on, there will be no more shackles.

Without the constraints of the Dragon Roar Body.

With diligent practice and the aid of elixirs, one's cultivation level can quickly recover or even surpass its former level.

The mental and physical exertion required to rebuild Xin Ruyin's meridians this time was also considerable, even compared to alchemy.

Lu Jianghe's temples were unusually damp with a fine layer of sweat.

He opened his palm, revealing four coins remaining. Without hesitation, he took one and popped it into his mouth.

A cool, smooth sensation flowed down my throat, instantly transforming into pure medicinal power that permeated my entire body.

My slightly tired mind instantly cleared up.

The unique and powerful vitality of this White Bone Regenerating Flesh Pill is indeed remarkably effective in restoring one's condition.

Lu Jianghe's body was enveloped in a light, flowing azure spiritual energy, causing his clothes to flutter without wind and his hair to sway gently.
