My daily cultivation progress is calculated.

Chapter 134 Breakthrough in the "Dragon Elephant Banruo Sutra"! All 108 acupoints open simultaneously!

This inn is still dozens of miles away from the next village or town.

Fortunately, the moon was shining brightly tonight, and by its light, the group rode their horses at full speed along the official road.

As for the celestial treasure he obtained, Shen Ci knew that if Emperor Xuanwu found out about it, it would be a disaster. He thought it would be better to ask Shen Moxuan for his opinion after returning to Bianjing.

Shen Yan held the jade pendant in his bosom, feeling a slight coolness emanating from it, which calmed his mind considerably.

In terms of cultivation, I didn't feel much help.

I'm in a hurry right now, so it's not convenient to take it out and examine it closely.

I can only study it again when I stop to rest.

The ethereal aura emanating from the celestial treasure circulated within Shen Yan's meridians along with his true qi.

Each time the true energy completes a full cycle, that wisp of energy will shrink slightly.

If Shen Yan didn't concentrate and observe carefully, he wouldn't notice it at all.

He couldn't help but think to himself, "Could this really be a celestial treasure?! It feels like that wisp of energy is even more effective than the Fire Spirit Pill I took."

His consciousness sank into his mind, and the little blue figure representing the "Longevity Manual" was practicing its techniques at a speed 30% faster than usual.

Upon seeing it, Shen Yan couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. Sure enough, that stone was no ordinary object. However, when he touched it again, he couldn't see any misty energy entering his body.

He thought to himself, "It seems that what's special is that aura; the so-called celestial treasure has probably lost its effectiveness now."

The journey has been fraught with difficulties, but they have finally gained something. They have not yet reached Jiangnan Prefecture, and they don't know what awaits them.

It would be a good thing if Shen Yan could score one point higher.

Since the incident at Tongfu Inn, they have stopped staying at inns.

Around midnight, they found a nearby cave to rest in, where they could shelter from the wind and rain.

Feed the horses some hay and water, let them rest, and set off on their journey the next day.

Shen Yan said to Shen Ci and the others, "You all rest inside, I'll go outside to keep watch."

Since he was willing to keep watch, no one would say anything.

Shen Yan came outside the cave and, by the moonlight, took out the jade pendant from his bosom.

One side of the jade plaque is carved with a scene of mountains, trees, buildings, and palaces, while the other side has the character "Tao" on it.

Despite the simplicity of the single word, Shen Yan sensed the profound truths of the universe contained within it.

This aligns perfectly with the concept of harmony between humanity and nature advocated in the "Longevity Secrets".

He couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement, thinking to himself, "This treasure is indeed destined for me."

Shen Yan channeled his true energy into the jade tablet, causing it to change slightly and emit a bluish light, but that was all.

He refused to believe in superstition and poured half of his true energy into the jade tablet, causing the light emanating from it to become even softer.

Some images appeared above the jade tablet, seemingly a map, but due to insufficient true energy, only a corner of the image was visible.

Shen Yan kept tinkering until dawn, but finally gave up.

Even if all the true energy in the dantian and dantian were poured into the jade tablet, it would be like a bottomless pit that could never be filled.

One corner of the picture remains largely unchanged.

Shen Yan sighed: "It seems that my cultivation level is still too low."

He guessed that the jade pendant must have come from an extraordinary source, but he didn't know how it ended up in You Yuan's hands.

Now that everyone who knew the truth is dead, Shen Yan has no way of knowing.

As dawn broke and before the sun had even risen, they were already preparing to set off.

Shen Yan faced the rising sun, feeling the energy surging from the Dao Fruit.

In an instant, the withered grass and trees around him began to grow wildly, and the trees sprouted new buds, creating a vibrant scene.

His eyes turned slightly blue, and a white horse in the distance neighed excitedly.

The old wounds on the white horse had completely healed.

Its fur is also glossy.

Xilülü.

The white horse turned its head to look back at Shen Yan, and a hint of joy appeared in its eyes.

Shen Ci and Shen Rong stepped out of the cave and felt the vibrant life outside.

The group immediately felt refreshed and invigorated.

Shen Ci, whose cultivation level was too low, could not perceive anything unusual. He only felt that the place was so beautiful and serene that he felt relaxed and happy as a result.

Shen Rong was, after all, a fourth-rank martial artist, and his knowledge far surpassed that of Shen Ci.

He looked around, his gaze settling on Shen Yan.

Seeing the surge of energy around Shen Yan, it was clear that Shen Yan must have gained something.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"Just what kind of prodigy is Shen Yan? He's been traveling for the past few days and he's still managed to make a breakthrough."

Shen Rong was surprised to find that Shen Yan was also diligently practicing his martial arts while on night watch.

As they went outside, they bumped into Shen Yan breaking through.

Before he could even ask a question, a violent aura emanated from Shen Yan.

Shen Yan's eyes shone brightly; this was a breakthrough in the "Dragon Elephant Prajna Sutra".

Having successfully advanced to the fourth level, the acupoints on his body began to shine brightly. At this moment, Shen Yan had activated 108 acupoints.

At this moment, the acupoints he cultivated were already on par with those of a first-grade martial artist.

However, these acupoints are all concentrated in the lower body, making it difficult to compare with the strength of a first-grade martial artist.

However, the gap between him and a first-grade martial artist might not be that far.

Shen Yan felt the changes within himself and was overjoyed.

He let out a long howl, unable to hold back any longer.

"roar!"

The roar was like the howl of a tiger and the cry of a dragon, startling the birds in the mountains and forests.

A flock of birds appeared in mid-air, blotting out the sun, and kept circling high in the sky, clearly quite frightened.

Shen Rong was startled by his sudden roar.

This roar had no trace of sonic power; it came entirely from the surge of internal energy.

Even so, Shen Rong felt as if a demon god had descended upon the world.

The gaze directed at Shen Yan now held a hint of awe.

"Not only is his breakthrough speed so fast, but his foundation is also incredibly solid. Shen Yan should have activated all seventy-two major acupoints by now, right?"

At this moment, Shen Rongcai truly confirmed his guess that Shen Yan had made a breakthrough.

"Shen Yan's breakthrough is a good thing for us. Now a third-rank martial artist should be no match for him, but we don't know if he can compete with a second-rank martial artist."

Shen Yan remained silent, still immersed in the changes within himself.

The burst of energy accelerated the circulation of Qi and blood within his body, and the long-dormant "Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique" began to show signs of change.

He began to slowly break through to the third-grade refining level.

Without that wisp of misty energy, it would have taken Shen Yan at least a year and a half of accumulation to reach this level.

And it can only be done by soaking it in a medicine pot.

He was ecstatic.

"Such an extraordinary encounter is worth several years of arduous cultivation! It's a pity that this kind of thing is rare and hard to come by."

Shen Ci saw that Shen Yan had returned to normal and his internal energy had also subsided.

Shen Ci smiled and said, "Congratulations, Shen Yan!"

The guards accompanying Shen Yan looked at him as if they had seen a ghost.

Shen Yan is only in his early twenties, yet he is already close to reaching the third rank of the Outer Refinement stage.

Such a breakthrough speed is truly astonishing; they seem to see a future innate grandmaster right before their eyes.

Shen Yan smiled faintly and said, "Let's go!"

They hurried along and finally arrived in Jiangnan Prefecture five days later.

They were constantly attacked by assassins along the way.

Fortunately, Shen Yan was powerful, and none of the invaders returned alive.
