Time flowed like water, and in the blink of an eye, today's competition had already ended. The curtain of night quietly came, and the bustling Cloud State City lit up with specks of light.
… …
In the cultivation room, Chen Hao sat cross-legged. His entire body was enveloped in a dense Qi that was like water ripples, causing his figure to look as if it was constantly twisting and changing …
If Elder Xiao and Xiao Ding were here, they would definitely be indescribably shocked!
"Huff …"
Right at this moment, Chen Hao slowly opened his eyes. His pair of eyes flickered with a faint trace of pleasant surprise, and he let out a long breath.
"Profound Ice Qi, the derivative energy of the water attribute of the five elements. It's probably because I comprehended the Profound Ice Qi that I was able to easily comprehend the water attribute energy because of Helian Wuzi …"
Chen Hao gazed at the dense Qi that was currently slowly merging into his dantian, and muttered to himself.
This dense Qi wasn't Origin Power, nor was it the Profound Ice Qi that Chen Hao had comprehended. It was the water attribute energy!
Even Chen Hao didn't expect that the battle with Helian Wuzi would actually allow him to obtain such a huge harvest!
Merely through the trace of water attribute energy that Helian Wuzi had left in his dantian, he was able to comprehend it. Moreover, it naturally merged with the Profound Ice Qi. Following Chen Hao's thoughts, the two types of energy that were originally of the same origin could actually be converted at will. What made Chen Hao even more pleasantly surprised was that this kind of gentle, gentle, and nourishing water attribute energy possessed an extremely shocking healing effect. In less than four hours, all the injuries on Chen Hao's body had completely disappeared …
Moreover, Chen Hao clearly felt that there was a trace of subtle change in his state of mind. It was as if his senses towards the energy of heaven and earth had become even more sensitive. With every breath he took, he could sense the faint water attribute energy.
This kind of feeling was very wonderful. It made Chen Hao's body and mind feel as if they had merged into heaven and earth, and he could feel the pulse of heaven and earth. Unknowingly, a trace of understanding appeared in Chen Hao's heart.
"Bang …"
Without any warning, Chen Hao struck out with his palm. The fiery red and violent yuan qi instantly surged out. But it was only for a moment, as if it had turned into a nimble and gentle flame, its speed instantly slowed down. It was like a gentle breeze blowing over the surface of the water, gently hitting the solid rock wall, seemingly without any destructive power. But at this moment, Chen Hao's palm suddenly trembled!
"Boom!"
The gentle waves suddenly turned into roiling waves of anger, fiercely slamming against the stone wall. Immediately, stone fragments swirled in the air. The entire training room violently shook several times following Chen Hao's palm!
"Junior brother!"
Xiao Mei, who was sitting cross-legged on Chen Hao's bed, felt the huge commotion coming from the cultivation room. She immediately pushed open the door to the cultivation room. When she saw the spirited Chen Hao, she said in surprise, "Your injuries … have healed?"
"More or less. I'll definitely be fine tomorrow …"
"I think you'll be fine now …" Xiao Mei stared at the stone fragments that had yet to scatter, as well as the deep palm print on the wall. Her charming eyes carried a trace of surprise as she said this.
"Low key, low key … Senior sister, they should be back. Let's go eat, you support me …"
Xiao Mei curled her lips, but still held onto Chen Hao's arm. The more she interacted with him, the more Xiao Mei felt that Chen Hao's astonishing talent, especially the talent of his physical body. It was far beyond what ordinary people could reach. Xiao Mei naturally understood Chen Hao's meaning, so she could only follow along with this guy's act. Of course, she was quite satisfied that Chen Hao didn't act in front of her.
…
"Awesome brother, you're my idol … Helian Wuzi was even taken care of by you, you're really too awesome …"
When Chen Hao and Xiao Mei rushed to the dining room, Xiao Jishan, this boorish man, had a face full of admiration and envy as he grabbed Chen Hao's shoulder and praised him.
"Xianghao, you're the best! Hehe … "
Lil Ling 'er and the other girls also did not hesitate to surround him and praise him.
The taciturn Xiao Jifei's eyes also shone with admiration. Some of the inner disciples of the Xiao Family also came over and asked about Chen Hao's injuries.
Unlike Chen Hao, who was like the moon surrounded by stars, Xiao Jihan, who also won, had a gloomy face. Only a few followers were by his side, and all of them were gloomy.
"Xianghao, are your injuries better?"
At this moment, Xiao Ding walked in. After seeing Chen Hao, his face shone with joy and undisguised concern as he asked this.
Everyone immediately dispersed obediently and went to their seats.
"I'm better. Thank you for your concern, Patriarch! "
"That's good. Although you tied with Helian Wuzi today, it was purely a fluke. In future battles, others will be wary of that secret technique of yours … Don't take any more risks! "
"Yes!" Chen Hao replied.
…
While Chen Hao and the others were eating, in the City Lord's Mansion, Mansion Master Li Ran's room, Li Ran was sitting on both sides of a chessboard with a smile on his face. "It's been ten years, one month, and eight days since we last met. I didn't expect Brother Xiao to be even more outstanding than before. The Secret to Longevity is indeed worthy of its reputation …"
The old man sitting opposite Li Ran was none other than the Xiao Family's ancestor, Elder Xiao.
"Brother Li, you have a good memory. No matter how strong the Secret to Longevity is, it can't compare to your Spiritual Cultivation Sutra …"
"Hehe … Tell me, you're holed up in that place, refusing to come even when you're called out. You definitely don't visit without a reason, right? Could it be for that little fellow Xiao Xianghao? You don't have to hide it, I just happened to discover … Mysterious Ice Qi. Hehe, I think he comprehended it in your Elemental Spirit Cave? This little fellow is more powerful than you think … "Li Ran saw Elder Xiao's stunned expression when he mentioned Chen Hao, so he continued with a smile.
"Brother Li … How did you discover it? How is it more powerful than I thought? "Elder Xiao asked in surprise.
"I'm at least a seventh-grade Spiritual Sage. Is it strange that I discovered it? You don't have to worry, other than me, no one else will discover it. As for why I said he's more powerful than you think … That's because this little fellow's innate psychokinesis is comparable to a Spiritual Sage! "
"What? How is that possible? "Elder Xiao was so shocked that he almost jumped up when he heard Li Ran's words.
"I also think it's impossible … But that's the truth!" Li Ran frowned. "Martial Artists and Spiritual Sages, although different paths lead to the same goal, there's still a huge difference. Furthermore, before reaching the Martial Saint level, they're like fire and water. If this little fellow hadn't started cultivating as a martial artist, it wouldn't be strange. However, he's already at the Martial Master level. How can his innate psychokinesis still exist?"
Innate psychokinesis was the spiritual root that Elder Xiao had mentioned to Chen Hao before.
Everyone was born with psychokinesis, but there were strong and weak ones. Only when one's psychokinesis reached a certain level could one be called a person with spiritual roots.
When this kind of person started cultivating as a martial artist, the tempering of their physical body would not be able to erase their psychokinesis. They would only be able to temporarily force it into the depths of their brain (which was also the upper dantian). When they stepped into the Martial Ancestor level and had perfect control over their Yuan Li, they would be able to start tempering the most mysterious part of their brain. At that time, the innate psychokinesis hidden in their brain would be of great use.
As for martial artists who didn't have spiritual roots, they were people who were born with weaker psychokinesis. Once they started cultivating as a martial artist, their psychokinesis would be too weak and would be erased by the sliver of Yuan Li that entered their brain. Therefore, it was impossible for this kind of person to temper the most mysterious part of the human body, the brain.
However, even though Chen Hao had started cultivating as a martial artist, his innate psychokinesis wasn't forced into the depths of his brain. Instead, it could be displayed with his mind!
Elder Xiao wasn't the only one who was shocked. Even Li Ran, who was a Spiritual Sage, found it unbelievable …
"How long did he last during the spiritual roots test?" Li Ran asked as he stared at Elder Xiao.
"About four hours …"
"Four hours?" Li Ran frowned slightly and said, "He's not considered very strong … he barely met the requirements to become a Spiritual Sage … this is really strange … could it be that when he tempered his physical body, his psychokinesis could also increase on its own?"
Li Ran and Elder Xiao really couldn't figure it out, and it was impossible for them to figure it out. Although Chen Hao's physical body was strong in the past, he was still an ordinary youth. It was only because of his childhood experiences and the obsession in his heart that he possessed a psychokinesis that surpassed ordinary people. However, that kind of psychokinesis was considered an extremely ordinary existence compared to the requirements to become a Spiritual Sage. However, the current Chen Hao wasn't the simple youth he used to be. He was the fusion of two souls. It was also because of the soul fusion that almost tore the soul apart, as well as the mysterious fusion, that there was today's Chen Hao.
"This …"
Elder Xiao was speechless. He had to admit that Li Ran's discovery was really too shocking for him.
"Brother Xiao, tell me what you want first! I think it's definitely not a small matter. Otherwise, you wouldn't have come to look for me. However, as long as I can help, I will definitely help you! However … "
"I knew you wouldn't lose out." Elder Xiao said, "However what? Tell me … "
"Haha, give that little fellow to me!" Li Ran laughed lightly and immediately demanded an exorbitant price.
"What? You're dreaming … Li Ran, we've been friends for so many years, don't tell me you want to extort me? "
"Alright, since you've said this, I'll take a step back. We'll nurture this little fellow together, how about that? In name, he's a member of your Xiao Family! Do as you see fit. If you agree, tell me what you want. I guarantee that I'll do my best to do it! If you don't agree, leave the money for the tea. It's a total of three copper coins and you can leave! "Li Ran stared at Elder Xiao and said unquestionably.
"Why don't you go rob a bank? You want me to pay three copper coins for a mouthful of inferior tea? "Elder Xiao was so angry that he immediately pointed at Li Ran's nose and said.
If this scene was seen by the cultivators in Cloud State City, they would be so shocked that their eyeballs would fall to the ground. One had to know that these two people were like gods in the eyes of the cultivators in Cloud State. Especially Li Ran, he was the undisputed number one expert!
But now, these two respected figures were more like old men haggling in the market ….
"Ready to pay for the tea?" Seeing Elder Xiao's appearance, Li Ran smiled slightly and said indifferently as if he didn't care.
"You win …" Elder Xiao gloomily sat down again and glared at Li Ran. He finished the tea in his cup in one gulp and just as he put down the cup. Under the control of Li Ran's telekinesis, the teapot in front of him was filled to the brim. "Six copper coins …"
