The Wind Attribute Elental Power was still swirling on his finger, and Mu Chen was in no hurry to retract it. In the past, because he lacked corresponding Attribute Cultivation thods, he had naively believed that all nine of his Attribute Dantians could only be directly strengthened to their peak by using an Ultimate Attribute Spirit. Thus, aside from his Ice Attribute Dantian, he had mostly just used the others as reservoirs for Primordial Power.
But now, feeling the significantly stronger Wind Attribute Elental Power in his body, Mu Chen realized how foolish his past actions had been, how he had neglected the fundantals for trivialities, wanting to raise all his elental power to the extre in one go. He had to rember that besides having nine tis more Primordial Power than others, his advantage also included having eight more types of Attribute Elental Power. If he truly wanted to beco stronger, he could strengthen all eight types of elental power simultaneously, then fuse and use them. The might that would produce would be terrifying!
’I’ve been so foolish. Why am I only realizing this now?’
Tapping his forehead, Mu Chen felt that his Cultivation over the past few years had truly been a waste. He had single-mindedly used the Ice Attribute Elental Power he had pushed to its extre, completely ignoring the power of his other attributes. After all, an Attribute Elental Power that had already reached its peak couldn’t possibly be pushed any further.
With another flip of his wrist, an earthy-yellow Spirit Crystal appeared in Mu Chen’s hand. Looking at the thick, stable Earth Attribute Elental Power within it, a deep sense of anticipation flashed in Mu Chen’s eyes. It was as if a brand new door had opened before him, allowing him to step into a world he had never encountered before.
’That’s right. In the past, I stuck to using only one type of Attribute Elental Power because I couldn’t protect myself. But now, even if I mix things up and use several types of Attribute Elental Power at once, people will only find it strange. After all, in all these years, a Martial Artist with multiple coexisting Attribute Powers has never appeared.’
Having figured this out, the corners of Mu Chen’s mouth lifted slightly. "Looks like I need to get my hands on more Attribute Spirit Crystals. I really made the right choice coming to the Fenglan Empire." After speaking, Mu Chen used the sa thod to lift the Earth Spirit Crystal into the air. With a slight activation of his Extre Spirit Chaos Technique, his Earth Attribute Dantian took over from the Wind Attribute Dantian, rapidly drawing the vast and pure Primordial Power from the Earth Spirit Crystal into its core, causing his Earth Attribute Elental Power to grow ever stronger.
But just then, the Primordial Power in Mu Chen’s body suddenly erupted. A massive amount of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi rapidly converged on him. This phenonon caused Mu Chen, whose consciousness was imrsed in his Elixir Field World, to be pleasantly surprised. Under the impact of the Primordial Power from these two massive Attribute Spirit Crystals, his Martial Artist Realm, which had fallen to the Four-Ring Martial Spirit Peak, was actually showing signs of a breakthrough.
At the ti of his Broken Ring Demonization, Mu Chen’s Martial Artist Realm had already reached Mid Five-Ring Martial Spirit. However, a Broken Ring didn’t an losing a full Ring Level of power. Instead, it erased the highest realm of the current Ring Level, causing one to drop directly to the peak of the level below. It could be said that Mu Chen was relatively lucky when his ring broke. If his Martial Artist Realm had already reached the Five-Ring Martial Spirit Peak back then, he would have suffered a trendous loss now.
CRACK...
At the sound, Mu Chen was startled and hurriedly activated his Extre Spirit Chaos Technique. He had almost broken through his Martial Artist Realm without the guidance of the Extre Spirit Chaos Technique. If that had happened, the converging Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi would have undoubtedly drilled into his body chaotically the mont he broke through. The various types of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi would have then constantly collided within his ridians, and he truly would have had to bid farewell to the path of a Martial Artist. A single misstep could have led to eternal regret.
With the guidance of the Extre Spirit Chaos Technique, the Primordial Power entering Mu Chen’s body beca much gentler. The realm barrier had already cracked, and the impact force of the Primordial Power had gathered to a perfect degree. Therefore, Mu Chen controlled the Extre Spirit Chaos Technique to charge toward the already-shattered realm barrier at its fiercest speed.
PING! With a crisp sound, the entire realm barrier was completely broken through. The Primordial Power around Mu Chen suddenly erupted, engulfing him completely in what looked like a blazing fire.
"My power... has returned."
Clenching his left fist and feeling the surging Primordial Power, a smile of satisfaction appeared on Mu Chen’s face. He looked up at the window. The autumn moon at night always evoked a certain sentintality. Although Mu Chen had only been away from the Xuanling Empire for five days, he was already a great distance away. Besides, people often find themselves unable to escape the depths of longing for a while after they leave.
Gazing at the round moon outside, Mu Chen sighed and said, "It’s another night of the full moon. ’May we live long and share the beauty of the moon, though we are a thousand miles apart.’ Bing’Er, Qing’Er, are you two doing okay?"
Ever since he was young, Mu Chen had been a kind person, and kind people always share a common flaw: they are prone to sentintality. Although Mu Chen appeared extrely mature and resolute, he still couldn’t escape his sensitive nature. When he had no one to worry about, he could be carefree and reckless. But when important people appeared in his life, he beca so very cautious about everything.
After a mont of reflection, Mu Chen took a deep breath and said with determination, "This ti, no matter what, I have to go back quickly. After participating in the Spirit Selection Conference, if I can win first place, I’ll go check out those Ancient Ruins. If I can’t win first place, I’ll head straight for the Netherworld Purgatory. I absolutely won’t make any more unnecessary stops along the way."
His mind made up, Mu Chen lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. He had already cald the excitent from his breakthrough, but after seeing the full moon just now, the faces of Mu Bingling and Mo Qing kept lingering in his mind, impossible to shake.
"Sigh..."
With another sigh, Mu Chen finally, reluctantly, climbed out of bed. The light in the room was as gentle as ever. Seeing a white-jade-colored lamp, Mu Chen suddenly seed to think of sothing. With a flash from his ring, a simple, ancient white jade pendant appeared in his hand. The pendant was warm to the touch. In Mu Chen’s opinion, this Ancient Jade Pendant must have been crafted from an extrely precious type of Ancient Jade.
Looking closer at the pendant’s craftsmanship, it was exceptionally exquisite. Intricate, auspicious patterns of a dragon and phoenix were carved on the top, bottom, left, and right. In the center of all these patterns, however, the character ’Shang’ was written with incredibly powerful brushstrokes. This inevitably made Mu Chen think of that exceedingly mysterious, refined gentleman, Qin Shang.
’I think he said sothing when he gave this Jade Pendant.’
At the ti, Mu Chen had been completely shaken by what Qin Shang said about the Obsession Gu. As a result, he hadn’t fully heard—or rather, didn’t clearly rember—what Qin Shang had said when giving him the pendant. Recalling it now, Mu Chen vaguely rembered so of Qin Shang’s words.
"When you have ti, you can use your Spiritual Power to probe inside the Jade Pendant. You might find sothing surprising."
Those were Qin Shang’s exact words. Thinking of this, Mu Chen didn’t imdiately release his Spiritual Power. Instead, he released a faint wisp of it. It wasn’t that Mu Chen didn’t trust Qin Shang, but in this world, it was always good to maintain a hint of wariness toward the unknown. By releasing only a single wisp of Spiritual Power, he could sever the connection at a mont’s notice if he discovered anything strange inside.
The wisp of Spiritual Power Mu Chen released quickly seeped into the center of the Jade Pendant. But to Mu Chen’s surprise, the pendant actually contained an Independent Space similar to a Storage Space. After his wisp of Spiritual Power explored for a mont and found nothing amiss, Mu Chen finally dared to release his Spiritual Power fully. At last, the Independent Space inside the Jade Pendant beca perfectly clear to him.
But the space inside was completely empty, with nothing but a huge Jade Bed. The Jade Bed itself looked brilliantly translucent and dazzlingly bright; one glance was enough to tell it was no ordinary item. And at the head of the Jade Bed were three large words carved into it: "Spirit Nourishing Couch."
From the na alone, he could tell that this Jade Bed was definitely related to Spiritual Power. Since it was called "Spirit Nourishing," it must be a treasure used to cultivate Spiritual Power. It seed Qin Shang had secretly given him a supre treasure.
Fortunately, the Jade Pendant had no defenses. With a single thought, Mu Chen easily left a Spiritual Mark on it. Now, he could take out the Spirit Nourishing Couch inside anyti, anywhere. However, on second thought, the couch took up a good six or seven square ters. Given the growth rate of his own Spiritual Power cultivation, it didn’t seem that useful, and taking out sothing so large would be even more inconvenient if he were camping out in the wild.
But how could the clever Mu Chen not have a solution? That’s right—the Extre Spirit Pearl! Now that Xiaobai the Snow Qilin had broken the Seal, Mu Chen could enter it anyti he wished. Moreover, every ti he entered, he would get a strange feeling, as if his very soul had entered the World Inside the Pearl.
After confirming it multiple tis, Mu Chen finally discovered that this feeling wasn’t an illusion. His soul was truly leaving his body and entering the Extre Spirit Pearl. With that, the problem of not being able to take the Spirit Nourishing Couch into the Outer Realm was easily solved.
With another thought, Mu Chen directly transferred the Spirit Nourishing Couch from the Ancient Jade Pendant into the Extre Spirit Pearl, and he himself quickly entered the World Inside the Pearl as well. The World Inside the Pearl was now a picture of serenity. The colorful clouds that had been devoured by the Snow Qilin had already returned to their forr state, but the scenery of the entire world was vastly different from before.
The vast blue sky, the colorful clouds, the gurgling streams, and the verdant green grass all gave one a feeling of fresh, natural, untainted purity.
SWOOSH! Mu Chen’s figure appeared in the middle of the grassy field. Almost at the sa instant he appeared, a huge white figure charged toward him with the force of a thunderbolt and prostrated itself at his feet, gently rubbing its enormous head against his chest. Mu Chen took one look and knew—who else could it be but that fellow, the Snow Qilin.
Inside the World Inside the Pearl, the Snow Qilin didn’t need to maintain its original form. Thus, it now appeared to be about five ters long and three ters tall. A long, resplendent horn shot toward the sky, and its pair of golden pupils shone with a majestic light. Its entire body resembled that of a giant white Lion King. Setting aside its aura and power, the Snow Qilin’s overall form was not much different from the main body Mu Chen had seen back then.
"Xiaobai, is everything alright in here?" Mu Chen asked with concern, smiling as he stroked the Snow Qilin’s long white fur.
