Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 513: Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art (2)

15th of November.

Six days after the research center was founded.

Su Yu had opened 308 acupoints. After trying out numerous cultivation methods, he found that some of them were able to slightly increase the speed of acupoint fusion. At this point, he had fused four of his acupoints.

If he followed his original speed of one acupoint every three days, he should have fused only two acupoints after a week. But he had actually increased his speed. This proved that some cultivation methods were indeed capable of increasing the speed of acupoint fusion.

"The human race's Acupoint Fusion Art and Fusion Sutra are decent auxiliary techniques. They respectively require 15 and 24 acupoints."

"The flying eagle race's Two Extremes Separation is also decently useful, requiring only 28 acupoints."

"The red toad race's Acupoint Assembly Art is also quite useful, requiring only 22 acupoints..."

Su Yu sank into thought as he evaluated the cultivation methods that could assist with acupoint fusion. There were actually a lot of cultivation methods capable of helping with acupoint fusion in existence.

For example, the Two Extremes Separation and Acupoint Assembly Art could probably be sold for a very good price as they required only a small number of acupoints. They were even better than some of the human race's own acupoint fusion methods.

They could help someone save at least a third of their time when fusing acupoints. But that still wasn't what Su Yu was looking for. It was still too slow. It was not efficient enough. Saving a third of one's time?

This was not enough to satisfy Su Yu. He wanted something capable of completely removing the repelling force. Only something like that was good enough in his eyes. As he thought about all that, a drop of golden blood appeared in his hand.

This was the last type of blood essence he had yet to test. It was the blood essence of the celestial dragon race. This one drop of Infinite Strength blood essence had a shocking price of 300 merit points. Su Yu had purchased three drops of them, spending over 900 merit points.

He knew the dragon language. And he had only received the celestial dragon blood essence not long ago.

"I have tried dozens of cultivation methods. Some have completely no effect on acupoint fusion. Very few cultivation methods are actually helpful. What about the celestial dragon race?"

He consumed the drop of blood essence with no hesitation. With his current physical strength, he could actually start consuming Skysoar blood essence. Infinite Strength blood essence could no longer put much pressure on his body.

Before long, a new page was activated on his book. This signified that the celestial dragon race had killed him in a dream before as well. Even now, Su Yu would still dream of getting killed by the myriad races. But the dreams were a lot more sparse nowadays. He would only get one occasionally.

He returned his focus to the book. A new page had opened.

Celestial dragon race (ninth-stage Infinite Strength)

Racial abilities: Break (activation with blood essence), Dragonsfury (activation with blood essence), Acupoint Flux (activation with blood essence)...

Foundation source art: Celestial Dragon Art (activation with blood essence)

Su Yu inhaled deeply in shock. This was the first time he had seen a race with so many abilities.

There were six of them in total. He did not pay much attention to the subsequent abilities, stopping after noticing the Acupoint Flux ability. Was that an acupoint fusion method?

It was actually a racial ability?

This signified that the celestial dragon race did not need to cultivate this method. They wouldn't even realize that they had such an ability. They would only know that they could fuse acupoints very easily. In their eyes, this was probably a result of their innate talent instead of a racial ability or cultivation method.

The celestial dragon race was actually born with such an ability.

"Acupoint Flux Art..."

Su Yu was getting excited. This was a top 10 race. The human race was the sole exception in the top 10. Apart from the human race, each of the other top 10 races had their own special abilities.

He still had two drops of celestial dragon blood essence. One of them would be used to activate the Acupoint Flux ability. The other would be used to activate the foundation source art, the Celestial Dragon Art.

As a top 10 race, this cultivation method should be quite powerful, right?

At the very least, it should be stronger than the Body Strengthening Art. Perhaps it could even help him open 144 new acupoints.

Su Yu did not hesitate and consumed a drop of blood essence. He was going to activate the Acupoint Flux ability first.

Instantly, he sensed something happening.

Inside his body, 32 acupoints had opened. These were all the acupoints that were more hidden compared to the others. And 9 of them were the acupoints that he had yet to open.

The instant the 32 acupoints opened, a suppressive force appeared in his body. This force was almost undetectable. Su Yu tossed everything out of his mind and started trying to fuse his acupoints.

And the moment he made his attempt, he was overjoyed. The repelling force had reduced significantly. Or to be precise, the hidden suppressive force generated by the 32 acupoints had suppressed the repelling force.

"At least two thirds of the repelling force has been suppressed."

Su Yu was pleased. It was actually amazing that two thirds of the repelling force had been suppressed. This was much better than all the other cultivation methods he had tried before this. With this cultivation method, it would save more than two thirds of one's time when fusing acupoints.

If the original suppressive force was 3, allowing one to fuse 1 acupoint in 3 days, then the current suppressive force would be 1.

But with a weakened repelling force, one would probably take only half a day to fuse an acupoint instead of an entire day. That was because with a weakened repelling force, the process would be easier and require a lower amount of source qi and willpower.

"Very good."

Su Yu was very happy. This was an excellent cultivation method. Previously, he would require around 45 days to finish a stage of Infinite Strength cultivation. But now, he would probably need around half a month.

After about half an hour, the power of the drop of blood essence was finally fully exhausted. Su Yu didn't mind. He was on the verge of fusing his fifth acupoint.

"I need to open nine acupoints to use this method..."

Suddenly, a thought appeared in his mind. He hurriedly gathered a few cultivation methods together and placed them in front of him. After taking a look at them, he muttered, "Of these methods, the celestial dragon race's method requires the highest number of acupoints. And the one with the lowest number of acupoints is the human race's Acupoint Fusion art. One requires 32 acupoints while the other requires 15 acupoints."

When Su Yu looked at the other cultivation methods again, his expression changed. Previously, it was not too obvious, but after using the Acupoint Flux Art, he had discovered that there was a high degree of overlap among all these cultivation methods.

"Therefore, the acupoints capable of suppressing the repelling force are fixed. Some of these acupoints are actually ineffective, but the ones that are overlapping are probably the effective ones."

With that discovery, Su Yu started going through all the cultivation methods he had tried before. He had a gleeful expression, looking like someone who had just discovered something precious. He felt like he had discovered a brand new world.

"A few select acupoints are probably capable of suppressing this repelling force. Perhaps I can try to derive a better art through the Acupoint Flux Art. Generally, 36 acupoints would be the most suitable number for an art. But the Acupoint Flux Art only has 32 acupoints, so there is probably still some room for improvement...

"And there are probably some unnecessary acupoints in the Acupoint Flux Art as well...Perhaps I can add some of the acupoints from the other methods into this method..."

"..."

Su Yu muttered to himself in mad joy. Not all cultivation methods in existence were perfect.

For example, Hu Qiusheng had once improved a cultivation method by removing an unnecessary acupoint from it. And Su Yu was someone who knew a lot more about cultivation methods than his peers.

After all, he had cultivated dozens of acupoint fusion methods of the myriad races. In the course of cultivating these methods, he had discovered some well-hidden acupoints that would probably be extremely hard to discover through normal means.

In truth, what he was currently doing couldn't be considered the creation of an original cultivation method. Rather, he was modifying and improving existing cultivation methods. freewe bnovel.com

...

After about four hours.

Su Yu had drawn a new acupoint chart on a piece of paper. There were 36 acupoints on the paper. He had been trying to bring all the overlapped acupoints together while testing the other acupoints and removing the acupoints that did not seem too useful.

Ultimately, he was able to create a chart with 36 acupoints. The acupoints of the Acupoint Flux Art were also included in his chart with a few unnecessary acupoints removed.

"According to the convention, 36 acupoints is the perfect number for a cultivation method. With only 36 acupoints, the circulation path will not be too hard to deduce. After all, all the cultivation methods I've used to come up with this chart share similar circulation paths. But...will it be dangerous to try this out?" freewebnov(e)l.com

Su Yu sank into contemplation. Although he had been very careful when coming out with this chart, this was still the very first cultivation method he had produced.

If there was a mishap and he ended up destroying some of his acupoints, it would be troublesome.

After a while, his eyes flickered.

"Zhou Hao!"

Should he find himself a test subject? He could have Zhou Hao test this new cultivation method for him! Zhou Hao had opened a lot of acupoints as well. Perhaps he would have a lot of overlap with this new cultivation method. Or perhaps he already had all the required acupoints opened. If some of his acupoints ended up blowing up while trying the cultivation method, well, that would be his business.

In truth, Su Yu was still quite confident in this product of his. But he lacked the courage to actually test it out. If all 36 of the acupoints ended up destroyed, even if he could survive, he would probably be bedridden for half a year.

"Zhou Hao has cultivated the Thousand Mountain Art. Due to the powerful repelling force, acupoint fusion is almost impossible for him. If this cultivation method is effective, it will change his life. And if it works even on a cultivator of the Thousand Mountain Art, it will definitely be useful for anyone else."

In Su Yu's opinion, Zhou Hao was more suited to walk the path of a warrior. Sure, his willpower seemed to have grown slightly, but he was still stuck below the Mental Tempering Stage. That fellow had only been relying on his physical strength so far.

If they were to talk about willpower cultivation alone, even intermediate class students would look down on him. He was really not too talented in willpower cultivation. Or to be accurate, he had started his willpower cultivation too late. Like Su Yu, his willpower was rather tenacious, but it was too weak.

"That fellow is Xia Yuwen's student. He won't leak my cultivation method, right?"

This was another issue Su Yu was worried about.

Nevertheless, it was time for him to have a chat with Zhou Hao. He believed that Zhou Hao was the most suitable test subject. In fact, he could even get Zhou Hao to be the test subject when they found the source soul acupoint in the future. That fellow was truly too talented in terms of opening acupoints.

According to the rumors, he had only been discovered by Xia Yuwen not long ago. Prior to that, he had never cultivated. He had taken only a short amount of time to open 144 acupoints and complete the cultivation of the Thousand Mountain Art.

Xia Yuwen was a terrible teacher. If Zhou Hao had been sent to a war academy, even if he had to restart his cultivation, it wouldn't take him long to reach the Infinite Strength or even the Skysoar Realm.

But instead, Xia Yuwen had brought him to a cultural research academy, completely wasting his talent. A lot of people felt regretful about this, but they couldn't do anything since this was Xia Yuwen's student.

"If that fellow is really sent to a war academy, he will be the next Huang Teng."

Huang Teng, a genius of Great Xia War Academy. The same genius who had beaten Bai Feng up several times.

This genius had long reached the Cloudbreach Realm. He was no longer in the academy. According to the rumors, this person had gone to the front line to participate in the battles there.

After a while, Su Yu reached a decision to have a chat with Zhou Hao. There was no need for him to take the risk himself. Who knew if he had deduced correctly?

What if some of the acupoints conflicted with each other and blew up as a result? Perhaps he should look for Teacher Zhao for a few simulated test runs first before testing it on Zhou Hao? Yeah, Su Yu was such a kind person. He should definitely reduce the risk for Zhou Hao if possible.

As for Zhou Hao, if he wanted to change his fate, he naturally had to take some risks. It was up to him whether he wanted to do it or not. Su Yu believed that Zhou Hao would most likely agree. That was a person who could be ruthless to himself.

"Since there is a new cultivation method, I need to give it a name."

Su Yu rubbed his chin as he sank into thought. After a while, he grinned in amusement as he muttered, "Let's call it the Double Wu Acupoint Fusion Art. Senior Sister and Wu Lan will be very happy. They will be even more willing to work for free..."

Su Yu was starting to know the two of them better nowadays.

They needed a lot of praise.

They needed a lot of coddling.

They needed a lot of compliments.

They needed to be told how amazing, incredible, and important they were. That way, they would feel good even if they were working for free. As long as they were happy, they would be willing to spend an entire life working for free.

Since a cultivation method that could change the path of human cultivation was named after them, they would probably go crazy from joy. The more Su Yu thought about it, the more he had to resist the urge to laugh.

Was that too mean of him?

Not only was he making them work for free, he was actually making them pay him to work for free. And that was not enough as he was also trying to make them happily do all of that. Sigh. That was really too mean. He almost felt bad for them.

"I'm doing all this for the rise of the human race." Su Yu muttered to himself. He was doing this for humanity. As a researcher, he needed to be firm.

As for the matter that some people were paying to work for free...well, it was fine as long as he himself wasn't the one doing that. What could he do if his senior sister and Wu Lan were happy to do so?

In reality, for a lot of people, having such a monumental cultivation method named after them was something worth an entire lifetime of labor.
