1212 Unique Meridians
“It’s not just Space either,” the senior continued. “Because of her Wood Spiritual root, she will also be a master of the Wood daos, especially the ones related to Wind.”
“I see,” Alex said. “That’s the Sky God’s physique huh?”
“Kid, I thought you would be the only one that would surprise me, but now even your own kid is surprising me. How many gods do you need in your family? Are you trying to anger me so much that I die?” Godslayer asked, although his voice held not much anger in it at all.
Alex nearly chuckled out loud hearing the defeated voice of Godslayer but quickly held it in. He looked at his daughter once again and sensed her cultivation base.
Based on how slowly she should have been cultivating, he was surprised that she had managed to even enter the True realms. Although, she was only a True Disciple realm cultivator.
“So she will soon be a master of space, right?” Alex asked. “Her grandaunt has a body that can help her master Time dao, and now she can master space.”
“And I have the Sun God’s body, and I now know my cousin has a Celestial grade body too. Do you know what’s happening with our family? Why we are born with such bodies?” Alex asked.
“I’m afraid I do not know,” the man said. “I have been quite curious about your family after learning that the girl with the only Celestial body at the time was your cousin from your father’s side too. I tried to look into your past after I took her in, but the details are not there anymore.”
“Whatever history you have, it’s all been erased to time, and unfortunately, I cannot do anything about it,” the man said.
Alex felt slightly disappointed not getting an answer about that. “Ah, right. Everyone born on my father’s side of the family has a very good body constitution, so I’m wondering if my father does too,” he said. “However, because of how his cultivation has been, I’m worried that might not be the case.”
“Hmm? What do you mean? What’s going on with his cultivation?” the senior asked.
“It’s been nearly a decade since he started cultivating, and he has yet to enter the True realms,” Alex said. “That’s extremely slow for someone in our family, isn’t it?”
“Hmm, are you sure he’s cultivating properly? With proper cultivation techniques, using formations and such?” the man asked.
“I make him six-veined cultivation pills every time he has to cultivate. I’m sure resource is not the problem here, senior,” he said.
“You can make six-veined pills?” the man asked with a surprised look.
“Can we talk about my father please?” Alex asked.
“Oh yeah, sure,” the man said. “Uhh… if that pill isn’t helping him then… uhh… maybe he doesn’t have the talent like everyone else? Maybe the bodies and talents skipped a generation in his case.”
“Without even trying to body cultivate, he has managed to reach the Saint Soul realm with his body alone,” Alex said.
The senior suddenly got serious when he heard that. “What? His body cultivation is that high without working for it?” he couldn’t help but ask.
“Yes, without any resources other than phoenix fire too,” Alex said.
“Hmm…” the man fell into thought for a bit.
Maron looked around curiously. “What’s going on? Are you talking about my grandfather? I have a grandfather?” she asked.
“Yes,” Alex told her. “He wanted to come with me today, but I stopped him. You can meet him later after we go back.”
“Your father,” the man asked. “Is there anything wrong with his body?”
“Wrong?” Alex got a little scared and started to think. “Uhh, no. Nothing’s wrong as far as I can tell.”
“Are you sure?” the man asked. “Because the only possibility for his case to exist is if he has unique meridians.”
“Unique meridians?” Alex got worried. “Unique how? Is that bad?”
“It’s not bad… exactly,” the man said. “Unique Meridians simply mean that the meridians work in a way that is very unique to the person and that person alone. While everyone has different meridians, they usually function in a similar manner.”
“However, for someone with unique meridians, the way they work cannot be replicated by anyone else. The problem with Unique meridians is that there are no techniques that are meant for them. Any and every technique, even the most basic ones do not work for them and they have to struggle to have it work even just a little bit.”
“As such, it’s very bad for cultivation as it will take the person at least 10 times or even more effort and time to cultivate with Qi compared to a normal person.”
“That is a problem someone with Unique meridians has to go through. However, as if to compensate for this restriction, the heaven allows their body to strengthen faster, nearly as fast as they are slow with Qi cultivation.”
“It is yet unsure if Unique meridians can be considered a type of body constitution, but it is no different from one. If I’m not wrong about it, then your father happens to be one of the very few unlucky folks with a set of unique meridians.”
Alex couldn’t help but think back to when he helped his father clear his toxins. He tried to remember if his meridians at that time were so vastly different than normal people. Unfortunately, he hadn’t paid that much attention to the meridians at the time, so he wasn’t sure.
“I will have to check his meridians once we go back to the house,” Alex said. “I will check if his meridians are indeed unique or not.”
“I’m sure it is, based on just the fact that he easily body cultivates,” the senior said.
“I hope so too,” Alex said.
The man looked around and nodded. “Alright, I’m going to go fix up the teleportation formation, have it work for the Northern Continent. What do you plan on doing?” he asked.
“I… I am probably going home for now. Ronron, you should come with me too. Your grandfather is very excited to meet you,” Alex said.
“Oh! Master, can I go?” Maron asked the senior.
“Sure, you can go. I brought you back here to keep you safe from the others, but with your father around, I don’t think that will be necessary,” the senior said.
“Yes!” the girl said excitedly. “Father, let’s go.”
Alex smiled and looked back at the senior. “I will come back in 3 days then,” he said.
“I will have Hao Ya here message you the time when you’ll be leaving. Bring along as many people that will want to leave as you can. The more you bring, the less I will feel the resources are being wasted,” the senior said.
“I will see who I can bring along,” Alex said and bowed toward the senior one last time before turning around.
He looked at his daughter next to him who was very excited and couldn’t help but pat her on her head.
“Let’s go.”
