Adding Friends Can Make Me Stronger

Chapter 43: Peak of Aperture Connecting, Secret Realm Opens!

Soon enough, a month had passed.

It was time for the sect’s secret realm to open.

During this month, the sect was unusually bustling.

Many talented individuals who had been in seclusion emerged one after another.

Some challenged each other on the martial arena, showcasing their formidable strength.

Others left the sect, heading to the ancient city outside, challenging the experts listed on the Hidden Dragon Ranking. Although they failed, their endeavors were still talked about with relish.

As for the inner sect disciples, it was equally lively.

Everyone was discussing who currently held the title of the number one disciple in the inner sect!

After all, there were too many powerful geniuses.

There was Duan Hun from the Penalty Peak, the Shi brothers from the Purple Nourishment Peak, Kuang Dao from the Martial Arts Peak, Xiao Zhen from the Formation Peak, and Wen Tianming from the Medicine King Peak.

As for the Spirit Peak, it was slightly lacking.

There was no standout disciple.

The reason was simple: the special physique from a few years ago had already ascended to be a true disciple.

But fortunately, there was Meng Changqing, allowing the disciples of the Spirit Peak to at least have someone respectable to speak for them.

They wouldn’t be at an absolute disadvantage in verbal battles with disciples from other peaks.

In a simple room, Meng Changqing sat cross-legged, and it was noticeable that his black hair had grown longer.

Clearly, he had been in seclusion for a long time.

And the jade box in front of him was empty.

Hoo!

Meng Changqing suddenly opened his eyes.

There seemed to be a glint of brilliance in his eyes, turning into rainbow light that pierced through the void.

At the same time, an extremely powerful aura suddenly surged, causing the entire house to tremble slightly, and dust fell from the ceiling.

Fortunately, the aura lasted only for a moment, quickly retracting like a whale sucking in water.

“Peak of Aperture Connecting Realm!” Meng Changqing smiled.

Indeed, it was the third-grade pill, the Gold Scale Purple Blood Pill!

Its medicinal power was truly fierce.

Coupled with his second-grade Root Bone, his cultivation speed was like flying!

If only he had a few more pills.

But the existence of pills had a diminishing effect. The second pill wouldn’t be as effective as the first, and it would continue to decrease thereafter.

Taking a deep breath, Meng Changqing slowly stood up.

At this moment, he was shirtless, emitting a strong pressure!

This was the change brought about by a significant increase in cultivation. If it were a breakthrough to a higher realm, the change would be even more pronounced.

This was the inherent pressure brought by a powerful cultivation.

Especially for those extremely powerful beings. It was said that their mere glance could shatter mountains and rivers.

“Now that my nine apertures are open, the next step is to unify them, absorb the essence of heaven and earth, gather them in the pill field, and unlock the secrets of the sea pill!” Meng Changqing’s thoughts moved slightly.

Nine points of light appeared on his body’s surface, distributed on his limbs and torso.

These were the large openings of the human body.

The channels of the nine veins had been unblocked at the Vein Tempering REalm.

The Aperture Connecting Realm then opened the nine large openings that had been sealed.

Afterward, the nine veins acted as bridges, connecting the nine openings into one whole, unlocking the secrets of the sea pill!

To cultivate true qi!

As a result, there was still a little way to go before reaching the Sea Cleaving Realm.

But as long as there were enough resources, this path could be quickly traversed.

The medicinal power of the Gold Scale Purple Blood Pill was still partially lingering, but it wasn’t enough to ascend to the Sea Cleaving Realm.

Fortunately, the secret realm was about to open.

The missing things could be found there.

“With my current strength, there’s no need to worry about the journey in the secret realm,” Meng Changqing stretched his neck.

His black hair was scattered.

His robust physique gave a strong visual impact.

Before, perhaps he wouldn’t have dared to say such words.

After all, there were still the Shi brothers with their bloodline, as well as the hidden geniuses of the sect.

But now.

With his accumulated strength, he was enough to bridge this gap, and even surpass it!

He took out a clean set of clothes from his storage ring.

Meng Changqing’s demeanor instantly became calm again.

Kong Linxue’s previous conversation with him, he had fully assimilated. During this period, besides cultivation, he was also planning in his mind.

Where he would go and what he would obtain in the secret realm.

It could be said that it was very clear.

Upon entering, he would directly rush to his destination without any time wasted.

“In the secret realm, let’s advance to the Sea Cleaving Realm!” A gleam appeared in Meng Changqing’s eyes.

Entering the Sea Cleaving Realm would truly transcend the ordinary!

A qualitative change in strength!

He still vividly remembered the true qi power of Elder Feng.

Furthermore, after stepping into the Sea Cleaving Realm, his status in the sect would also rise to the True Disciple level!

With more benefits and privileges.

“Additionally, I need to add more friends!” Meng Changqing’s lips curled up slightly.

At such a grand event, it would be a pity to miss out on those talented individuals who were in seclusion.

After seeing the martial arts in the Hidden Martial Pavilion, he was already envious of several of them.

Each of the Seven Veins had its own characteristics.

If he could master them all.

How terrifying would his comprehensive strength become?

What you know, I know, what you don’t know, I will learn!

Dong Dong Dong!

Suddenly, an ancient and deep bell rang.

This was the Dao Bell of the Tai Xuan Sect.

It only rang when something important happened.

“The secret realm is about to open.” Meng Changqing picked up the sword next to him, tied it to his waist, and stepped out of the door.

The two secret realms were both located deep within the sect.

However, their positions were different from each other.

The Xuanqing Realm was slightly closer.

Surrounded by towering mountains, disappearing into the clouds.

In the center was a basin, where the sect had built a huge square.

Many inner disciples had already arrived by now.

Looking around, it was densely packed, with nearly three thousand people.

These were three thousand martial artists at the Aperture Connecting Realm.

And their ages were not high.

Any one of them could easily establish a clan outside.

“Quick, look, it’s Duan Hun from the Penalty Peak!”

Someone with sharp eyes pointed out, and the people around him immediately made way.

The person who came was tall and straight, wearing a black sturdy outfit, with a cold face, giving off a feeling of not to be approached by strangers.

In the Tai Xuan Sect, the Penalty Peak was in charge of the sect’s rules. Once one crossed the line, they would be dealt with according to the rules, and they were known for their strictness!

It was said that even the Sect Master had been punished by the Elder of the Penalty Peak.

As a result, everyone held the Penalty Peak in awe and kept their distance.

It was different from other peaks.

The Sect Master’s Peak had stopped accepting disciples a long time ago.

While the Penalty Peak had fewer disciples.

This also made the disciples of the Penalty Peak relatively outstanding in strength.

Because those accepted were the elite among the elite!
