Just after Brian Walker and the others left, a graceful and elegant figure suddenly appeared in the alley.

If it wasn’t Helen Moore, who else could it be?

“Giggle, how interesting. So it’s the famous good-for-nothing young master of the The Walker Family. Looks like everyone’s been fooled by you!”

She whispered softly, then with a flash, Helen Moore’s figure vanished without a trace.

......

Back at his residence, David Walker handed the Blood Replenishing Pill to Autumn Grace, then returned to his room and entered the Supreme Divine Hall.

After that, David Walker began to take the Dragon-Tiger Pills, starting to break through to the second divine meridian.

The second divine meridian was even harder to open than the first.

This time, David Walker consumed a full forty-five first-grade mid-tier Dragon-Tiger Pills and spent five days before finally breaking through the second divine meridian.

Once the second divine meridian was opened, the true energy within David Walker surged again.

“My current pure true energy burst should be about the strength of one ox!”

Normally, the true energy burst of a first-level warrior is about the strength of one ox. Now, David Walker’s true energy burst was already no weaker than a first-level warrior.

“Now, continue.”

Next, David Walker began to break through the third divine meridian.

The third divine meridian was also the most difficult.

It took a full ten days and the refining of seventy Dragon-Tiger Pills before he finally succeeded in opening the third divine meridian.

When the third divine meridian was opened, points of light lit up all over David Walker’s body—one hundred and eight acupoints, like stars in the sky, radiating dazzling brilliance.

One hundred and eight major acupoints, twelve meridians, formed a complete grand cycle. The surging true energy roared through David Walker’s meridians, incomparably powerful.

“So strong! Breaking through three divine meridians is so much more powerful than just two?”

David Walker felt the power within his body and was exhilarated.

Three divine meridians and two divine meridians differ by only one, but the gap between them is worlds apart.

Three means perfection; two, after all, is still flawed.

Now, David Walker felt that he could condense a vortex in his dantian at any moment and step into the Warrior Realm.

“Not yet. I still haven’t obtained the second level of the ‘Battle Dragon True Art’!”

David Walker forcibly suppressed his excitement, then turned his gaze to the second platform beyond the ninety-nine steps.

“This time, I should be able to get up there, right?”

David Walker got up and headed toward the second platform.

Soon, he was standing on the ninety-ninth step. Last time, this was where he had been stopped.

But this time, there was no resistance at all. With one step, David Walker set foot on the second platform.

Welcome to the world of “Dragon Emperor of Ten Thousand Paths.”

Chapter 11: Perfect Meridian Opening

There was also a box on the second platform, but this one was made of bronze.

Opening the box, inside were two books and a jade box.

One of the books was not made of paper; it looked like metal but wasn’t, with over a hundred pages. It felt light in the hand, almost weightless.

On the cover were four large characters: Battle Dragon True Art.

David Walker hurriedly opened it and began to read carefully.

“So this isn’t the second level of the Battle Dragon True Art, but the complete Battle Dragon True Art.” David Walker’s eyes lit up.

As he read on, the smile on David Walker’s face grew wider.

According to the records, what he saw on the first platform wasn’t the first level, but rather the prologue to the Battle Dragon True Art, mainly used to lay the foundation and better open the three divine meridians.

And from here, the Battle Dragon True Art truly began.

The True Dragon True Art is divided into nine levels.

The Battle Dragon True Art condenses dragon-shaped true energy; the true energy cultivated is much more condensed and robust than ordinary true energy.

According to the records, as long as you master the first level, the density and robustness of your true energy will be twice that of ordinary true energy.

Master the second level, and it’s three times as much, and so on. If you cultivate to the ninth level, the density and robustness of your true energy will be ten times that of ordinary true energy.

David Walker was ecstatic. Ten times? What does that mean? It’s like comparing steel to rotten wood—one strike from steel, and the rotten wood is smashed to pieces.

Worthy of being a divine-level technique—truly terrifying.

But the difficulty of cultivating it is also extraordinary.

Don’t even mention the ninth level; even the first level requires opening three divine meridians. Otherwise, there’s no way to succeed.

No wonder the prologue of the Battle Dragon True Art obtained on the first platform specifically stated that you must open three divine meridians to cultivate the subsequent techniques.

That’s just the first level. The second level requires many auxiliary materials for cultivation, all of which are extremely precious—some of which David Walker had never even heard of.

“I won’t worry about the later parts for now. If I can master the first level, having true energy twice as dense and robust as others is already terrifying.”

Excitement flashed in David Walker’s eyes as he carefully read through the Battle Dragon True Art, then picked up the other book.

Flowing Light Sword Technique, a top-grade Yellow-rank sword technique. Once mastered, the sword light is like flowing light—swift as lightning, continuous and unending.

This was actually a top-grade Yellow-rank martial skill. You should know, the martial skill that the The Walker Family currently uses to guard the clan is only top-grade Yellow-rank.

In addition, there was a jade box, on which was written: Spirit Origin Pill.
