Chapter 957: Scaled Hou Guardian
All of a sudden, Qin Yuan suddenly let loose a long roar, and his cheeks had taken on a bright red complexion, while an excited gleam had appeared in his eyes, in stark contrast with his usual sickly appearance.
His robes were flapping audibly despite the absence of wind, and a vast number of specks of white light had appeared over his body, over two hundred of which were quite substantial in appearance, while the majority were more illusory and insubstantial.
Immediately thereafter, a similar sight presented itself on the bodies of Chen Yang, Fu Jian, and Sun Tu as well.
As for E Kuai, specks of substantial and insubstantial light had appeared over his body as well, but there were over eight hundred of the former variety.
"Brother Li, those specks of light appear to correspond with the profound acupoints on their bodies. Could it be that these are all the profound acupoints that they've opened?" Shi Chuankong speculated through voice transmission.
"There are far too many of them for all of them to be profound acupoints. If I had to guess, those more substantial specks of light should be the profound acupoints that they've already opened, while the rest are the ones that they're still yet to open. Having said that..."
Han Li's voice trailed off here as a thoughtful look appeared on his face.
"What is it?" Shi Chuankong asked.
"Do you still recall how back when we first met Chen Yang, he mentioned that E Kuai had already opened over a thousand profound acupoints? Why is it that we can only see fewer than nine hundred right now?" Han Li asked.
"Could it be that he intentionally lied to us or was just trying to scare us?" Shi Chuankong speculated.
"I'm not sure, I guess we'll just have to ask Chen Yang about it later," Han Li replied.
