Chapter 260: The Terrible Spiritual Qi
The Terrible Spiritual Qi . . .
After all the events that had transpired, Cha Eun Xiao found himself fully engrossed in the pursuit of cultivation.
This time, he experienced a distinct sensation within his body, as though an unfamiliar form of energy was steadily burgeoning.
Inwardly, he couldn\'t help but marvel, [Bing Xinyue\'s cultivation is truly extraordinary. Despite my full dedication to my martial arts, I\'ve only managed to assimilate about ten percent of the profound cold qi residing within her. I\'ve been diligently working at it for quite some time now, and yet, I\'ve barely scratched the surface.
What\'s more, that mere ten percent of cold qi is astonishingly potent, and it feels as though it\'s on the verge of increasing...]
"She is undoubtedly the rightful heir to the Misty Cloud Palace. It\'s no wonder Lian-Lian holds her in such high regard. Bing Xinyue is undeniably a standout among all the geniuses. Her progress in cultivation is nothing short of remarkable."
As he delved deeper into his cultivation, Cha Eun Xiao found himself lost in the process. On one hand, he was diligently processing the energy stemming from his previous ailment, striving to fully transmute it. On the other hand, he was dedicated to refining the East-rising Purple Qi. In this moment, the outside world seemed to fade away, and he became one with the cosmic forces.
Unbeknownst to him, his hand remained placed upon Bing-Er\'s body. The energy he had infused into her Jing and Mai continued to course through her, its subtle presence persisting. With each revolution, a minuscule portion of the extraordinarily pure frigid energy would be expelled and silently directed into Cha Eun Xiao\'s dantian.
In essence, the remarkable surge of power was not due to Bing Xinyue but rather...
Yet, Cha Eun Xiao remained blissfully unaware of this transformation.
As dawn broke, the pure purple qi reached its zenith, and Cha Eun Xiao remained deeply absorbed in his cultivation, a testament to his unyielding dedication.
As Cha Eun Xiao was deeply immersed in his cultivation, Bing-Er awoke but made no immediate movements. Instead, she simply gazed at him, her wide, enchanting eyes locked onto his form. In the soft morning light, she found herself captivated by his concentration and thought, [He is so charming...
He looks so good.
How can he be so pretty?!]
Her teeth gently clamped onto her lower lip as she observed her beloved Brother Xiao with deep affection. Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind, [I\'ve heard that when girls grow up, they should marry a man... and men should marry ladies... So when I grow up, can I marry Brother Xiao?]
The idea made her cheeks flush crimson, and her heart raced in her chest. She remained nestled in Cha Eun Xiao\'s arms, too shy to move a muscle.
Unbeknownst to her, the vibrant purple qi erupted like an explosion.
In this moment, the East-rising Purple Qi, which had been circulating tirelessly throughout the night, formed a massive vortex due to the simultaneous internal and external movements within Cha Eun Xiao\'s body. Notably, as it coursed through Bing-Er\'s Jing and Mai, it seemed to provoke a reaction, causing the vortex to expand rapidly.
Silently, it whirled in the sky, gradually adopting the shape of a colossal funnel that appeared to bridge the heavens and the earth.
In a different world, Cha Eun Xiao\'s mind remained fully engrossed in his cultivation, leaving him blissfully ignorant of the unfolding phenomenon. He savored the experience wholeheartedly, making it difficult to halt the process.
Now, the mammoth vortex of the East-rising Purple Qi seemed to sense the surge in the pure purple qi saturating the world. In response, it began to spin with increasing speed, generating an incredibly potent mental aura.
It was as though it had drawn all the rivers into the ocean!
With a resounding "puff," the purple qi amassed like a tidal wave, surging forth with unstoppable force.
Successive waves of purple qi flowed like narrow streams, converging from the distant skyline and surging into Cha Eun Xiao\'s Jing and Mai. There was scarcely any time for him to assimilate these torrents before his dantian became brimming with purple qi, reaching a critical point that felt as though it might burst at any given moment.
Fortunately, the purple qi\'s trajectory involved passing through his dantian before entering the Boundless Space. In essence, his dantian functioned as a transfer station, sparing it from the catastrophic consequences of being inundated by the immense volume of purple qi. Without this fortunate arrangement, Cha Eun Xiao\'s dantian could have exploded due to the overwhelming pressure, despite his recent breakthrough to a new level, rendering the advancement futile.
As the purple qi continued to surge, it ceased to resemble narrow streams, now resembling relentless rivers in their momentum. Cha Eun Xiao\'s dantian, indeed his entire body, seemed to have become a conduit bridging the Boundless Space and the external world. The purple qi flowed through him like a deluge, surging into the Space with unrestrained force.
Despite the vast expanse of the Boundless Space, it too found itself on the precipice of saturation in just seven minutes. Now, it grappled with a predicament similar to the one Cha Eun Xiao\'s dantian had recently faced.
Within the dantian, a Boundless Space was situated behind it, comprising Nine Spaces within the Boundless Space itself. These Nine Spaces abruptly activated in unison, voraciously absorbing the purple qi as if driven by insatiable hunger. This methodically resolved the looming crisis of an "overloaded" Space. Yet, even with the Nine Spaces working in unison, their insatiable absorption merely maintained an equilibrium. The Boundless Space remained in a state of extreme fullness, with the risk of explosion ever-present should the Nine Spaces falter in their absorption.
However, the pressing question remained: why was such an overwhelming influx of purple qi cascading into his dantian and the Boundless Space so frenetically?
The answer was straightforward.
Not long ago, the pure purple qi that had pervaded the entire world had suddenly vanished.
At that moment, all the accomplished cultivators across the world shared a disconcerting realization: no matter how diligently they endeavored, they were utterly incapable of perceiving even the faintest trace of spiritual qi in the world. A collective shock rippled through their ranks, leaving them baffled and befuddled.
Yet, when they attempted to sense the spiritual qi once more a short while later, everything had seemingly returned to normal. Perplexed, they couldn\'t help but feel a sense of relief washing over them. Most of them shared a common thought, [Was that merely an illusion I experienced just now?]
With a shake of their heads, they shrugged off the inexplicable episode and resumed their cultivation routines, attributing it to a mere trick of the mind.
For the majority of cultivators residing in the Land of Han-Yang, they could comfortably dismiss the incident as a fleeting illusion and proceed with their pursuits. However, the man responsible for this extraordinary occurrence, Cha Eun Xiao, found himself plunged into a precarious predicament.
While others might have perceived the brief disappearance of spiritual qi as a momentary lapse, even in its brevity, it entailed the vanishing of all the purple qi enveloping the entire world. This disappearance represented the compression of an astronomically vast volume of spiritual qi. Although it required but an instant for this immense energy to be absorbed into the Space, the sheer quantity of it defied easy description.
Perhaps it was beyond the capacity of words to convey its magnitude.
The East-rising Purple Qi was undeniably wondrous and remarkable, but Cha Eun Xiao remained situated at a relatively lower cultivation level. The Boundless Space, while enigmatic and formidable, was still in its nascent stage of development. It may have already attained the power to challenge the divine order, yet it remained ill-equipped to handle such a monumental infusion of spiritual qi.
This unexpected celestial bounty that had seemingly fallen from the sky threatened to overwhelm and potentially obliterate Cha Eun Xiao!
