Yang Xuan opened his eyes and stared blankly at the green pool flowing in front of him. Everything that had happened since he came to Qingxue Country flashed through his mind like a movie.
Then, he smiled, but this smile was mocking himself.
Because he realized that he was wrong.
It was so wrong that it was beyond redemption.
What mathematical knowledge, what chemical experiments, what distinguished guests from the three parties, what elders worshiped — they were all fabricated.
When you were useful to them, you would be an honored guest, a delicious piece of meat in their eyes. But one day, when you touched their interests or touched their secrets, they would not hesitate to attack you, showing no mercy.
In his mind, inexplicably, the youth who stood at the back of the Yang family's mountain and roared to the sky that day inexplicably appeared again. That youth who had an incomparable thirst for power, for power that could overwhelm everything.
Power!
Everything was fabricated. Only power was the only truth in this world.
The green pool flowed quietly, like the green of spring that had just sprouted.
Yang Xuan closed his eyes. After a moment, he opened them again. But this time, the confusion in his eyes had completely disappeared, replaced by coldness and determination.
He took a deep breath. What entered his mouth was not air, but the green pool water. Or to put it more bluntly, it was endless wood spiritual energy.
The moment Yang Xuan sank to the bottom of the lake, he already understood.
This deep pool, which others regarded as a dangerous place, was actually composed of wood spiritual energy. Moreover, it was arranged into an array of wood spiritual energy.
For a long time, wood spiritual energy had always been used for his recovery. It could heal his body's injuries extremely quickly. But when he saw this green pool water, he understood.
Wood spiritual energy represented life. This was true, but the opposite of life was death.
When the Wood Attribute Spirit Qi was arranged in an array diagram, what was displayed was boundless death.
One side was life, and the other side was death. The distance between life and death was just a thin piece of paper.
Wood spiritual energy could heal human injuries, but when it was arranged in an array, it could instantly disintegrate and melt a person's body until it turned into nothingness.
The endless pool water rushed into his body. Yang Xuan carefully savored this different wood spiritual energy. After a long while, he smiled.
Because the wood spiritual energy in his body had simulated this highly toxic array.
One minute, two minutes …
Endless spiritual energy entered his body, strengthening his Jindan bit by bit.
Time passed, and the years were merciless.
One day passed, two days passed, one month, two months …
A year later, Yang Xuan, who had sunk to the bottom of the pool, had broken through to the middle stage of Jindan.
But it was not enough. The wood spiritual energy here had been accumulating for thousands of years. It seemed to be endless. After Yang Xuan broke through to the middle stage of Jindan, there was still a huge amount of spiritual energy pouring in.
One year, two years, Yang Xuan completely abandoned everything and gave up thinking about everything. What Qingxue Country, what spirit stones, even the Yang family, he deliberately did not think about them. All his energy was focused on absorbing spiritual energy and breaking through to the next realm.
Finally, three years passed. Yang Xuan sat quietly at the bottom of the pool for three years. His realm had broken through to the peak of the late stage of Jindan.
The pool water was completely absorbed by him. In order to avoid being discovered, he had left a thin layer of spiritual energy floating on top of the pool two years ago, so that people could not see the situation at the bottom of the pool.
Yang Xuan, who was at the bottom of the pool, stood up. His hair, which had not been tidied for three years, even hung down to his waist.
Slightly clenching his fist, the feeling of being in control from his hand made him feel extremely comfortable.
Then, the muscles on his face twitched. In the blink of an eye, he had changed into another person, a strange face.
This was the second array he had obtained from the wood spiritual energy here. Yang Xuan called it the Art of Transformation.
This kind of transformation was a fundamental change. It was a transformation from life to death, and from death to life. Even his body shape could be changed. It was a real Art of Transformation.
But it was not over yet. Then, his body slowly disappeared until there was no trace.
Yang Xuan, who had completely disappeared, looked down at his body, but only saw the ground behind him.
The corners of his mouth lifted into a smile.
The Art of Invisibility was the third array he had obtained from the wood spiritual energy. It could make him completely invisible and cover up all his aura.
The harvest was huge.
He did not expect that the wood spiritual energy, which had always been the most simple and slow to develop, would bring him the biggest surprise after it was really formed into an array.
His right index finger moved slightly and slowly pointed forward. The power of life and death on his fingertip kept switching with each other, reaching a balance, a critical point.
Yang Xuan retracted his finger again, and the power of life and death quietly dissipated.
He had already felt that when the balance of life and death was broken, the power that erupted could really shatter a vacuum.
This was the first move that he had created in the past three years that completely belonged to him. It was a move that truly belonged to him, and it was not even a combination of the five elements.
Life and Death Calamity!
When he pointed out his finger, half of it was life and half of it was death. Life and death were at the heart. This was the Life and Death Calamity.
The combination of the power of life and death was the Life and Death Calamity. Separated, it was the pure Life Calamity Finger and Death Calamity Finger.
Life was growth. It could make life complete the life process that would have taken decades or even centuries in an instant.
Death was death. It could make life's growth completely stop, cut off its vitality, and then completely disappear from this world.
The poison of the Great Path. The Death Calamity Finger was the truth of the poison of the Great Path in the Jade Cloud Pool.
As for the combination of the five elements, when the wood spiritual energy no longer held him back and even became the leader, even Yang Xuan felt that he could not control the power that erupted if he really used it with all his strength.
The combination of the five elements had become his real trump card. He would not use it easily unless it was a matter of life and death.
Yang Xuan looked up at the top of the pool. The green pool water that was only two or three meters thick was deliberately released by him to deceive others. The wood spiritual energy below these two or three meters had completely disappeared. It was all absorbed by his body and integrated into the Golden Core.
The peak of the late Golden Core stage. This was his current realm.
It was time to go out. It had been three years. He did not know what had happened in these three years. He did not know how the Green Snow Kingdom, Jade Cloud Sect, and the Giant Spirit Sect were doing.
He did not even know how the Yang family was doing now.
Yang Xuan's eyes revealed a strong murderous intent. He could already imagine how big of a wave it would cause when the news of his death reached Yan.
He was now a hundred percent sure that the Green Snow Kingdom and the Jade Cloud Sect would definitely send people to the Yang family to find the answer to the pattern.
I hope you don't go too far. Otherwise, I will let you know what the fury of a cultivator is.
Yang Xuan's eyes were incomparably cold, and murderous intent emerged in his heart.
