Within the illusion formation, beside the Zhuang River, Xiao Chen was still lying motionless on the riverbank. Three days had passed, and his shriveled skin had filled up a little.
However, he still looked as skinny as a log, as though he was malnourished. The poison had gathered on his skin, causing his fair skin to turn dark.
Another three days passed. Dark clouds covered the sky, making it gloomy. In the blink of an eye, bean-sized droplets of rain fell from the sky, hitting Xiao Chen's face with a pitter patter.
The torrential rain poured down, lightning flashed, and thunder roared. On the Zhuang River, the water level rose rapidly. The turbulent river water became even more turbulent as it flowed away.
Chi Chi! "
The raindrops fell on Xiao Chen's tightly shut eyes. His eyelids could not help but twitch. After a long time, he opened his tightly shut eyes to a slit. The raindrops seeped through the slit and entered his eyes mercilessly.
It was misty, and the scene in the sky was blurry. Amidst the misty water. Xiao Chen seemed to be able to see his parents from his previous life. Because of his departure, his mother wept uncontrollably every day, and his father sighed all day long. The hair on his temples had turned white.
"Dad, Mom …" Xiao Chen muttered softly. It was unknown whether it was rainwater or tears that flowed out from the corners of his eyes.
He had never felt as lonely as he did now. Despite the vastness of the world, there was no place for him to stay. In the face of this torrential rain, there was not even a straw hut to shelter him from the rain.
He stretched out his right hand with great difficulty, trying to grasp the vague yet familiar figures of his parents.
The bean-sized raindrops continuously struck Xiao Chen's right hand, mercilessly extinguishing his fantasies. The figures of his parents in the sky slowly disappeared. Familiar figures appeared one after another in Mohe City.
Xiao Yulan watched him leave in Mohe City, his heartbroken appearance. Ye Lan, Xiao Ling`er, and the other companions of the Trial of Gloomy Forest, kneeling in front of Xiao Xiong for his sake.
Feng Feixue, dressed in men's clothing, held a folding fan in her hand, and gracefully arrived at dawn. The various scenes of the past appeared before his eyes.
"Mohe City, I have been gone for so long, do you still remember me?"
"Cousin Yulan, did you go to the Heavenly Qin School with Xiao Jian?"
"Xiao Jian, will your hatred for me lessen because of my departure?"
"Feng Feixue, you first gave me the Blue Dragon medicine cauldron, then you gave me the Blue Dragon Cloud Soaring Art. What exactly is your identity?"
"Xiao Xiong, why are you chasing me out of the Xiao Clan just because I possess the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit? Why are you so heartless towards me?"
The blurry scene in the sky disappeared completely, leaving only a misty mist. The torrential rain washed away Xiao Chen's memories over and over again.
When all the memories disappeared, Xiao Chen's heart became clear again, and the mist in his eyes disappeared. He looked at the pouring rain, and his mind became pensive.
Xiao Chen struggled for a moment and got up from the ground. He supported himself with his right hand and slowly stood up. His body staggered a little. Because he had been lying on the ground for a long time, his blood circulation was not good. His head was dizzy and he almost fell down again.
After a while, all the blood in his body flowed smoothly. Xiao Chen slowly walked towards the Zhuang River, drenched in the torrential rain. A blurry image appeared in the water, revealing Xiao Chen's skinny body and dark skin.
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly and muttered, "A Heaven Ranked Martial Technique is indeed not something that I can execute now. If I were to execute it again, I would probably die a horrible death."
Suddenly, he remembered the first time he executed the Blue Dragon Martial Technique. He was saved by Xiao Yulan, and she took good care of him, as well as the table of delicious food.
Now that the two of them were far apart, he did not know when they would meet again. He could not help but feel melancholy in his heart.
Recollecting his thoughts, Xiao Chen found a flat rock. He hesitated for a while before sitting cross-legged on it.
He took out the Seven Leaf Fruit from the Universe Ring, and a refreshing medicinal fragrance instantly spread out. A seemingly solid golden aura surrounded it, and even the rain was unable to penetrate it.
Without any hesitation, Xiao Chen swallowed this natural treasure that even the Black Legged Snake did not dare to swallow. Xiao Chen's Qi and blood were extremely weak now. Even if he consumed a Red Heart Pomelo, it would not be enough. He needed to replenish his Qi and blood.
He did not have to worry about his Qi and blood being too vigorous, causing his body to explode.
The Seven Leaf Fruit melted in his mouth, turning into a refreshing medicinal liquid. It flowed through the meridians in Xiao Chen's body, circulating throughout his entire body. After one cycle …
A horrifying Essence Energy surged out from every part of Xiao Chen's body. An incomparably vigorous Qi and blood surged continuously in his body, flowing along the meridians and acupoints, heading straight for the Tianding Acupoint in Xiao Chen's brain.
Xiao Chen's body gave off a faint golden glow. When the pea-sized raindrops landed on it, they immediately evaporated into a mist. In an instant, the stone platform was covered in a mist.
Within the mist, there was a figure emitting a golden glow. In the heavy rain, he looked extremely divine.
The Seven Leaf Flower bloomed once every twenty years. All seven petals needed a hundred and forty years to bloom. After another twenty years, it would bear a Seven Leaf Fruit.
The birth of a Seven Leaf Fruit required a total of a hundred and sixty years. During these hundred and sixty years, the Seven Leaf Fruit would continuously absorb the purest Spiritual Energy in the world.
By the time it bloomed and bore fruit, the Spiritual Energy it contained would have reached an unimaginable level. This was the purest and densest Spiritual Energy; it could directly raise a cultivator's cultivation realm by one grade.
Although Xiao Chen had anticipated the strength of the Seven Leaf Fruit, he had still underestimated the Spiritual Energy contained in the Seven Leaf Fruit. Faintly, he could not grasp it.
Xiao Chen quickly circulated the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation and slowly refined this vigorous Medicinal Energy. A surging purple mist continuously rose from the top of his head.
The bones and flesh on Xiao Chen's skin and bones grew at a visible rate. His shriveled skin slowly filled up. Xiao Chen's dark cheeks looked like they were carved by a knife. They gave off an oppressive feeling of a treasured sword being unsheathed, revealing its sharpness.
After the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation circulated three minor cycles, Xiao Chen finally managed to control the medicinal energy. He continued to circulate the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation, preparing to make use of this opportunity to raise his cultivation realm during this torrential rain.
Dark clouds covered the sky, churning and churning. Thunder rumbled continuously in the clouds. The merciless torrential rain and strong winds blew increasingly louder.
There was the sound of wind, rain, thunder, the rushing river, and a waterfall in the surroundings. Even further away, there were the chirping of insects and the low cries of Spirit Beasts.
When the sounds entered his ears, Xiao Chen's mind became clear. He entered a state where he forgot himself, drifting between reality and illusion, comprehending everything in the world.
The Purple Thunder Divine Incantation circulated a great cycle. The surging medicinal energy contained in the Seven Leaf Fruit merged with the Spiritual Energy absorbed by the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation and flowed into his dantian.
"Bang!"
There were no obstructions at the location of the Martial Spirit in his dantian. The ten white clouds immediately exploded and turned into primal chaos. The clouds scattered and a pool of clear water appeared in the primal chaos of his dantian.
This pool of water was at least twice as large as it was when Xiao Chen advanced in the past. When Xiao Chen felt this energy, he felt a chill run down his spine. Xiao Chen was incomparably joyful. He had actually advanced to peak Medial Grade Martial Master. He was only a step away from becoming a Superior Grade Martial Master.
Xiao Chen had reached the point where he could advance again long ago. He had been suppressing this energy to strengthen his foundation. He did not expect that this time, he would be able to use the Seven Leaf Fruit to advance to peak Medial Grade Martial Master.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, there was an incomparably intense explosion of thunder in the sky. Due to the influence of the thunder, there were also countless explosions of thunder in Xiao Chen's body, clanging together.
Every single one of the seven hundred-odd acupoints in Xiao Chen's body crackled with thunder, resonating with the explosion of thunder in the sky. For a moment, it was unknown if the thunder in the sky was guiding the thunder in Xiao Chen's body or if Xiao Chen was guiding the thunder in the sky to roar for him.
Every time the thunder in his acupoints crackled, Xiao Chen would feel the energy contained in his body increase. This thunder was actually tempering his body.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen thought of a record in the Compendium of Cultivation. After the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation was cultivated to the third layer, every time it advanced, it could cause a mysterious phenomenon, bringing great opportunities to the cultivator.
According to the legends, after cultivating to the seventh layer, one would have to undergo a Lightning Tribulation. From the looks of it today, this legend should be true.
When the thunder stopped, the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation in Xiao Chen's body suddenly changed. The circulation speed actually became faster. At this moment, the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation advanced.
The torrential rain gradually stopped and the dark clouds scattered. Sunlight reappeared and the forest regained its vitality. The cries of birds and beasts could be heard continuously.
Xiao Chen suddenly opened his eyes. The Purple Thunder True Fire in his body suddenly surged out from his pores. Finally, it gathered together and turned into a dazzling purple flame, floating in front of him.
After the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation advanced to the third layer, the Purple Thunder True Fire also underwent a qualitative change. It finally became an Origin Flame. In the future, it would no longer be a flame without a root.
With a thought from Xiao Chen, the Origin Flame of the Purple Thunder True Fire turned into a beam of purple light and entered his right eye.
Instantly, a boundless sea of fire appeared in his right eye. It was like the entire universe was covered in flames. Finally, the boundless universe started to converge. The purple flame turned into a purple light and disappeared into Xiao Chen's right eye. His right eye regained its calm.
After jumping off the stone platform, Xiao Chen felt his entire body filled with boundless energy. Every move he made contained a great might. Stepping on the muddy ground, Xiao Chen arrived at the bank of the Zhuang River.
He waved his hand and a rhombus-shaped purple flame appeared in his right eye. It gave off an incomparably demonic glow. A surging flame appeared in Xiao Chen's hand and landed on the calm Zhuang River.
"Chi! Chi! Chi! "
The horrifying purple flame burned on the surface of the river, giving off a 'zi zi' sound. After a long time, the purple flame disappeared. The water level of the Zhuang River had actually dropped by a finger's width.
