Chapter 48: Advancing to Spirit Master (Seeking Recommendations)

  ……

  All the heat was suddenly released, and every pore was like being baptized in a hot spring, relaxing and refreshing to the extreme.

  But it's not over yet, at this time all the warmth begins to shrink, just like the tide going out, and everything flows back.

  The pure and great Bright Qi flows in reverse along the meridians, like a whirlpool. The originally empty Qihai suddenly became the source and center of the whirlpool's suction power, and the Xuanqi flowed along the meridians in a spiral-like running route, madly surging and impacting towards the Qihai.

  The mysterious energy in the meridians throughout the body is like a winding arrow that burns with an air of emptiness, and all the central points converge at the Sea of Qi.

  "Boom!"

  Just like a substantial thunderclap, Chen Mo was fearless.

  If it were someone else, they might have given up already. Their own Qi Hai would be too weak to withstand the intense backlash of the turbulent and surging reverse Qi, and when the time comes for its fierce return, they would likely suffer from either a failed ascension with disordered Qi, severe injuries, or even collapse of their Qi Hai, becoming a useless person, or in severe cases, being destroyed by the uncontrolled and rampaging Qi.

  The meridians return to the Sea of Qi like a hundred rivers flowing into the ocean, and in an instant, it seems as if one can hear a "hissing" sound, just like icy seawater extinguishing the dry, withered, and scorching hot air sea, far more violently shocking than pouring ice water on a red-hot iron plate. Countless strong currents of air rise up.

  In an instant, a sharp pain, comparable to tearing apart, afterwards is unparalleled comfort.

  The rising brilliant and mysterious energy finally disperses like smoke, like rain, like fog, transforming into warm and gentle breaths that flow smoothly through the meridians like jade discs rolling on a string, bringing with it an indescribable lightness and comfort, cleanliness and refreshment wherever it passes.

  Finally, all the turbid air was emitted from the pores all over the body, and the largest remaining one rose slowly from the dantian, spreading into his ears, nostrils, and mouth, and finally exhaled, without a single thread left.

  It was unknown how long it had been when the thunder and rain stopped. Chen Mo opened his eyes, walked out of the scripture storage building, and saw that the red sun was rising in the east; amazingly, it was already another morning!

  The morning after the rain, the air is fresh and clean. The trees outside the courtyard are so green that they seem to be dripping with juice.

  Stretched out the somewhat heavy body, and gazed into the distance.

  Whether it's the geese flying in the distance, or the insects eating dew on the wild grass nearby, or even the veins on the leaves of the Artemisia plants further away and the crevices in the wrinkles of the old tree bark, everything is clear and visible to the eye, as if the whole world has changed.

  The whole body's vital energy flows freely and unobstructed, exceptionally abundant, and the Qi Hai is even more overflowing with an extraordinary abundance, as if there is an inexhaustible supply of energy inside the body. With a grasp and grip of the palm, the bones crackle and pop with a clear, crisp, and extremely clean sound that is not dull.

  Suddenly moved by emotion, Chen Mo threw out a punch.

  "Drink."

  This move is ordinary and looks like just a fist frame, but it's crucial in the Diamond Fist because it's the most important attacking method in the Diamond Fists Suppressing Demon.

  It was not fast, but the momentum was extremely steady and straightforward, making people feel long and thick. The arm stretched out just in time to hover in mid-air, and then the sleeve just reached the wrist, but it emitted a thunderous sound.

  It's an indescribable feeling, you clearly feel that this punch is so "ferocious" and "urgent", even feeling that it can burst the air in an instant. But what is seen in the eyes is neither fast nor slow, until the arm is fully extended, a kind of unstoppable force can be felt extending from it.

  That's right, it's convergence.

  Just like an unexploded bomb, its exterior is so quiet, but once it explodes, the result is extremely fierce.

  It is far from enough to describe with "as still as a virgin, as swift as a rabbit".

  "Golden key opens the door."

  "King Kong's roar."

  Jin Gang Duo Ta

  A set of Diamond Fists, unlike the usual swift and fierce strikes, each move was executed slowly, as if savoring every moment. The continuous flow of movements had already lasted for quite some time.

  However, no one dares to ignore the power within. Even the simplest turn and punch carries a gust of wind, and what's most astonishing is that the punch clearly makes a "whooshing" sound as it leaves the tree leaf only half an inch away, yet the leaf doesn't budge.

  The last punch, "slap", like the sound of a palm slapping against the wall, landed on the massive rock.

  What's going on?! If it were any other day, the stone would have shattered into pieces and splashed everywhere. But today, the stone is still intact. Did he not use enough force?

  Stand up, close your eyes, clench your fists, exhale, and calm down completely.

  "Ka la......" The huge rock suddenly cracked open in a spider web pattern with one point as its center.

  Another gust of cool breeze blows over.

  "Whoosh......" The huge boulder turned into countless small rocks, scattered on the ground in a heap, and the center of that point was exactly where Chen Mo's fist had just landed.

  If there is a knowledgeable person present, they will definitely recognize that this is the introverted Xuan Qi. The so-called introverted Xuan Qi is actually a characteristic, a characteristic symbolizing a certain level.

  That means... Chen Mo has been promoted to Spirit Master!

  Shaman.

  For Chen Mo, what was once a distant word has now been reached. The Xuanqi throughout his body is no longer filled with Lingtu's energy in the meridians, requiring the use of Qihai to release its power or the use of Xuantong techniques to explode it to other parts of the body.

  He recalled the sensation of his promotion yesterday, with the mysterious energy and thunderous sound merging together, gathering from all over his body through the meridians, and finally entering the Sea of Qi. After being compressed and refined to remove impurities, it stabilized to a certain extent before "exploding" out of the Sea of Qi, surging throughout his body, washing and refining the meridians once more, allowing him to withstand even higher-intensity circulation of the mysterious energy.

  In that case, hasn't one's physical body made progress again? Haven't the impurities inside been washed away a lot more?

  Having thought of this, Chen Mo suppressed his excitement, took a deep breath and rushed to the edge of the pond for a look. His face was covered with black stuff that had dried up in a thick layer. If his face was like this, what about other parts of his body? Making sure no one was around, he ran all the way home, eager to take a hot shower.

  Not far away, in a loft, a man wearing a green shirt was watching this scene. The serious square face concealed his appreciation and admiration. This person was Chen Zhengfeng, who had been chosen by Chen Mo as his mentor.

  Insufficient at sixteen, promoted to Ling Shi. Perhaps this child will be the catalyst for the rise of the Chen clan in the future.

  ……

  The mountain top is clear and windy, with countless stars hanging on the vast sky like numerous eyes staring at all living things on earth.

  A silvery waterfall cascaded down the back mountain of the Chen family, rushing straight down three thousand feet, splashing countless water flowers and crashing against the mountain wall with a deafening roar.

  At the summit of the Wàn Dào Zhēng Flow, water vapor fills the air. On a protruding boulder that doesn't draw attention, Chen Mò sits upright and still, like a deity carved into the mountain cliff, proudly riding on the back of a massive silver dragon.

  After the family competition, I got a reward for first place, and exchanged 3,000 gold tickets and 1,000 contribution points for resources in one go. I only managed to exchange them for two third-grade elixirs, 'Clear Spirit Dan'.

  One of them was used up when advancing to Ling Shi, and the other one is quietly lying in front of him.

  Bitter smile, looking at this three-product elixir 'Clear Spirit Elixir', the pale green luster surrounds it, the fragrance is refreshing and invigorating, lifting one's spirits and clearing one's mind. This elixir not only enhances the cultivator's pure and refined spiritual energy but also consolidates and nourishes the yuanqi in the dantian, making it even more abundant and full.

  The only pity is that in order to enhance strength, many contribution values were borrowed from the family.

  Thanks to good luck, this time I successfully broke through to Ling Shi level, and only used one Qingling Dan.

  As for the extra Qingling Dan, Chen Mo naturally had a different idea. Now that he had luckily succeeded in advancing to Ling Shi, his top priority was to cure his brother's leg and fulfill his own guilt and wish.

  Relying solely on a nourishing vein pill might not be enough. Similarly, the young sapling of the radiant divine tree with only one leaf in the sea of consciousness is also insufficient.

  If it can promote the seedling to grow another leaf, the grasp will be much greater.

  In the ocean of consciousness, that small green sprout, after being compressed and used by myself several times, seems to have stopped growing. Its vigorous vitality is now weak and faint, and even the crystal clear stone has dimmed somewhat. If it doesn't receive timely nourishment and irrigation, the small green sprout may wither away.

  At once, Chen Mo swallowed the precious Qingling Dan without hesitation.

  Withdraw emotions, calm and quiet the mind, eliminate distractions. With each exhalation, open up all the pores of the body, allowing every tiny pore to breathe in fresh air. Gradually focus the spirit into a state of oblivion. Only perceive the five internal organs, then urge the bright and mysterious energy to gradually penetrate into the sea of consciousness.

  That weak and tender bud seems to have anticipated, the light green bud tip like a small tongue slightly arched, waiting for nourishment to be introduced.

  Suddenly, a cool breath burst forth from the air sea, and the medicinal effect of Qingling Dan began to spread out. Like a gentle stream flowing slowly, it transformed into pure and refined spiritual energy, carefully seeping into the ocean of consciousness bit by bit.

  Chen Mo knew that being too greedy would not chew thoroughly, the tender shoots had been **for a long time**, and suddenly pouring in like a violent storm would be too fierce to crush it, but instead losing more than gaining, only slowly coming.

  The tender bud trembled slightly, the tip of the bud jumped out and sucked in, stopping still, as if savoring the flavor, whether it was sweet or bland.

  Chen was stunned, and he had to muster up the courage to borrow the best elixir from his family. You're still being picky? Don't you know, Xiaoba, that those who have been eyeing the elixir have turned green with envy? They've tried every trick in the book - acting cute, trying to curry favor, throwing tantrums - but none of them could get a single sip. Do you think it's easy for me to raise you?

  The little sprout seemed to have sensed Chen Mo's emotions, and the tip of the bud slightly lifted. As if in disdain for Chen Mo, "How many drops of green liquid have you squeezed out of me? I eat grass and produce milk, don't you know?"

  Speechless and silent.

  At this time, the bright and mysterious energy is slowly filling into the sea of consciousness, and the tender bud seeds are soaked in it. The seeds absorb the mysterious energy, and their white color becomes brighter and more transparent, like jade, with some fine texture visible, as if they have been watered with fertile nutrients, becoming thick and solid soil.
