"Whoosh!"
Although the spiritual energy of this place was not very rich, being just a small county town, in an instant, it drained all the spiritual energy within hundreds of meters and absorbed it all around Su Han, immediately making the spiritual energy extremely dense, and even faintly, wisps of white mist began to rise.
Although Su Han was cultivating the Demon Dragon Emperor Technique, his cultivation base was not sufficient, and the surrounding spiritual energy took an hour to be fully absorbed into his body.
At this moment, on his naked body, another golden meridian appeared shimmering.
This was the second one!
Having opened two consecutive meridians, Su Han felt neither satisfaction nor saw it as a big deal.
With his former life's cultivation base and knowledge, opening meridians was the simplest and most basic task for him, achievable in minutes, and he would not take pride in opening just a few meridians.
"One hundred and eight meridians, among the first ten, the ninth and tenth are the hardest, followed by the first and second, the third to the eighth are much easier."
Su Han muttered to himself. Having taken many detours in his past life, he naturally had vast experience; he smiled slightly at this moment as the operation of the Dragon Vein Emperor Technique sped up again!
"Boom!"
With this increased speed, a booming sound emitted from within Su Han's body, along with an indescribable, astonishing power of devouring that burst forth!
The spiritual energy within tens of meters had already been devoured clean, regathering, and hundreds of meters were the same; now, Su Han was devouring thousands of meters!
A few thousand meters, that is, several kilometers in size. The entire Su Family estate covered no more than a few dozen kilometers, and at this moment, Su Han devoured the spiritual energy of one-tenth of the area in one go.
In an instant, many of the Su Family's disciples noticed something amiss as those who were cultivating suddenly found that the spiritual energy, which was originally flowing continuously, vanished in a split second!
"What's going on?"
"Where has all the spiritual energy gone?"
"I have no spiritual energy here either."
Waves of surprise and suspicion spread, but while they could feel the disappearance of spiritual energy, they could not discern where it had gone.
Meanwhile, at Su Han's side, when all that spiritual energy had gathered, the entire room suddenly became damp.
This was spiritual energy turning into liquid!
The spiritual energy had turned into droplets of water, as if it were raining from above, making everything in the room damp.
Su Han's expression remained calm, his eyes tightly closed as he devoured the spiritual energy, and his body's third and fourth meridians lit up simultaneously!
In terms of the Dragon Martial Continent, this meant he had opened four Dragon Veins!
However, this still wasn't the end point.
Given the richness of the spiritual energy in the Su Family, Su Han didn't hope to open meridians beyond the eighth, but he was determined to open from the fifth to the eighth meridian.
"Devour!"
At a certain moment, Su Han suddenly spoke.
The Dragon Vein Emperor Technique sped up even slightly more, reaching nearly the ultimate operational speed that Su Han could achieve at that moment.
The room, which was originally damp, became dry again at that moment, water droplets on the vase, the ceiling, and the floor... vanished instantly, as if they had evaporatively disappeared out of thin air.
"Thump, thump!"
Dull sounds came from within Su Han's body, and two more meridians, under these dull sounds, shone through his flesh, flickering with golden light.
"Six now."
Su Han took a deep breath. There were still plenty of spiritual energy droplets in his room, and he spared none, absorbing them all.
The seventh meridian was opened, and when it came to the eighth, there shone a golden light, but only half.
"The spiritual energy is insufficient."
Su Han furrowed his brows, pondered briefly, and then suddenly reached out his palm and struck his own chest.
"Puff!"
With this slap, Su Han immediately spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Before the fresh blood could fall to the ground, a power of devouring sucked in this blood, and wisps of red blood mist diffused, reentering Su Han's body.
This blood mist was precisely the spiritual energy that had remained inside the body when the 'Su Han' opened the Eight Dragon Veins previously.
Although the Dragon Veins were broken and cultivation base completely lost, there was still much spiritual energy left in these veins, which Su Han considered recycling waste.
The remaining blood had turned completely black, emitting a faint stench.
"Hum!"
Another humming sound transmitted, and with the aid of the blood mist, the eighth meridian was finally opened!
On the Dragon Martial Continent, he had now opened eight Dragon Veins, only two short of the peak ten, definitely qualifying him as a genius.
"You were once called a genius, but unexpectedly turned into waste. I will use your name to recast a Golden Body and help you... make a name across the world!"
Su Han's eyes opened as he murmured a few words and stood up. The eight golden glows inside his body gradually dimmed.
"Unfortunately, the spiritual energy here is too sparse, and with my current cultivation base, I don't dare to devour openly, otherwise, opening the ninth meridian wouldn't be difficult."
Ruefully shaking his head, Su Han sat back on the bed again, intending to search through the memories of his past life to see what martial skills he could cultivate at this moment.
"Bang!"
But just at that moment, the room's door was suddenly kicked open.
Indeed, kicked open, for Su Han had locked it from the inside, and the force of the impact directly caused both doors to fall to the ground.
Su Han frowned and looked up.
What caught his eye was a woman, extremely beautiful, with a long mane of purple hair flowing down her back, delicately featured as if carved by the heavens, her fair skin reflecting a hazy luster under the sunshine, and her straight and attractive figure exuding a captivating aura.
However, the woman's face seemed rather unpleased, appearing extremely angry.
"You are Su... Ah!"
The woman reflexively began to speak, seemingly having prepared her words, but before she could finish, she saw Su Han sitting naked on the bed.
In that instant, almost all of Su Han's body, except his back, was seen by the woman.
"Shameless!" the woman exclaimed sharply.
Su Han ignored her, slowly got up, walked to the wardrobe to get some clothes, and then spoke indifferently, "Who are you?"
"Put on your clothes first!" The woman's teeth clenched audibly.
"I've already put them on," Su Han said.
The woman slightly eased her tightly closed eyes, seeing that Su Han had indeed put on clothes, she sighed with relief and coldly snorted, "To think my sister thought you were some righteous gentleman, refusing to marry anyone but you, only to find you're such a despicable and shameless rogue, staying undressed in broad daylight!"
With that statement, Su Han immediately recognized the woman's identity.
First Miss of the Xiao Family, Xiao Yuhui!
