After being reborn, all I want to do is run away.

Chapter 406 Opening the Qi Sea

At this moment, Shen Xu looked at the deep blue sky that was constantly flashing with purple lightning, and couldn't help but feel a little bitter.

Knowing that this was definitely the work of the Black Seeds, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing for him.

But now that things have come to this, he can't stop just because he's afraid.

Shen Xu took a deep breath and closed his eyes again. Then, he used his consciousness to manipulate the vortex of Yuan Qi in his dantian to slowly rotate along with the cyan vortex in the sky.

As a drop of azure primordial liquid dripped from the bottom of the vortex into the primordial liquid within his dantian, the vortex within his dantian seemed to develop a mysterious connection with the azure cyclone in the sky.

Just then, a stream of azure energy appeared out of thin air in the vortex of energy within his dantian. Then, a second, a third, and an endless stream of azure energy continuously emerged from the vortex, quickly filling his entire dantian.

Just as the azure primordial energy filled his dantian, a very strange feeling was transmitted to his soul, and the primordial liquid in his dantian instantly began to boil.

Shen Xu knew that this was the crucial moment for opening up his Qi Sea, so he continuously circulated the Cloud and Mist Illusion Technique.

After an unknown amount of time, his dantian suddenly burst forth with brilliant light, and a wondrous space, somewhere between reality and illusion, appeared in his dantian, merging with it yet still maintaining a clear separation.

The so-called Qi Sea is not a real sea. Humans are limited by the Dantian, so the Heavenly Dao bestowed the Qi Sea upon them.

At the same time, the azure vortex in the sky released a long azure rainbow accompanied by deep purple lightning, which instantly shone on Shen Xu. The continuous rainbow flowed into his newly opened sea of ​​qi.

In an instant, Shen Xu's dantian was filled with azure primordial energy mist, a vibrant blue expanse accompanied by lightning and thunder.

As time passed, the dense mist transformed into drops of azure primordial liquid, falling like a torrential downpour into his dantian.

Endless vitality surrounded his dantian, its divine light dazzling and as beautiful as a rainbow, as if blue waves were surging within it, their sound so loud that the entire ancient forest could hear the surging waves.

Despite the howling winds and flying sand and stones outside, Shen Xu sat quietly in the center of the ancient forest. The sound of waves in his Qi Sea was incessant, and the blue waves surged to the sky. The entire Qi Sea was a vast expanse of blue, with occasional flashes of purple lightning, dazzling and eye-catching.

One after another, huge cyan vortexes formed above his cyan sea of ​​qi, one, two, three... a total of nine cyan vortexes slowly rotated above his cyan sea of ​​qi.

It digests the primordial energy that arrives at his dantian from the outside world, and then condenses it into primordial liquid that flows into his dantian.

The ancient forest began to resonate with his heartbeat. Feeling the rhythm within the ancient forest, the nine azure vortexes in his dantian suddenly trembled.

Ripples spread slowly within his Qi Sea, carrying a unique rhythm, as if resonating with the heartbeat of him and the ancient forest, mysterious and extraordinary.

When the ripples in his dantian were perfectly in sync with his heartbeat, the nine azure vortexes began to slowly approach, gradually merging and eventually forming a massive azure vortex that stretched across his dantian, resembling a giant azure vortex in the sky.

The primordial liquid at the bottom of the cyclone flowed into the sea of ​​qi like a mighty river.

After doing all this, the vital energy transmitted from the sky began to change direction little by little, flowing into the emptiness in his soul like a great river rushing into the sea.

As time passed, the blue in the sky faded, and eventually the entire sky turned completely gray, and the purple lightning disappeared.

Finally, the azure rainbow that shone on Shen Xu turned into specks of light and dissipated. The entire Qingling Creek gradually quieted down, and Shen Xu's Qi Sea also became calm, its radiance subdued and its waves undisturbed.

Shen Xu suddenly opened his eyes, and two beams of divine light, almost tangible, shot out from them, dazzling and so bright that no one dared to look directly at them.

Immediately afterwards, an extremely powerful and unparalleled energy fluctuation, like a surging wave, suddenly spread out from his dantian.

This powerful force penetrated his meridians, flesh, and even limbs without any hindrance, spreading rapidly to every corner with overwhelming force, and finally bursting out suddenly through the pores in his body.

The persistent dark clouds above Qingling Creek seemed to sense this momentum and dissipated in an instant.

Above the once gloomy and dark ancient forest, the sky suddenly became clear and bright, the blue sky was as clear as if it had been washed clean, and the sunlight once again shone into the ancient forest, and also into Shen Xu's calm and undisturbed eyes.

Clenching his fist, Shen Xu felt the newly surging power within his body and was somewhat stunned. He had returned to the realm of his previous life and possessed such a vast sea of ​​qi.

He remembered that his dantian in his previous life was a blood-red color; it was actually just a small lake.

Although the Blood Fiend True Technique could condense three vortexes above the sea of ​​qi, he only managed to condense two vortexes in the end due to insufficient primordial energy.

Sensing the massive vortex of energy within his dantian, Shen Xu knew that all of this was thanks to the black seed. The energy in his dantian was only a negligible fraction of the azure primordial energy from the sky; the majority had been absorbed into his soul's void by the black seed.

Thinking of this, Shen Xu closed his eyes and began to observe his soul state. Sure enough, the emptiness in his soul had been mostly filled, and he felt a sense of ease in his soul again. Shen Xu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, to his disappointment, the black seed still showed no signs of waking up, and the previous azure aura did not reappear as he broke through his realm.

"It seems that Soul Devourers are a species that will die if they don't quickly improve their cultivation level." Shen Xu revealed a bitter smile.

However, unlike when he broke through to the Qi Condensation Realm before, he did not enter that ethereal state again. His Water Intent and Blood Intent did not show any significant improvement, presumably because the breakthrough time was too fast and the accumulation was insufficient.

This is also one of the reasons why Li Xiaoyi and the others told him not to break through too early; he missed a very valuable opportunity for enlightenment.

But there's nothing that can be done about it; nothing in this world can be perfect, so he can only choose the option that yields the greatest benefit.

However, Mu Zhiyi seemed even more bizarre and perverse. When Shen Xu's palm touched the smooth ground, a patch of tender green grass rapidly spread across the originally barren ground at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Immediately afterwards, he casually swung his arm, and a dazzling arc of electricity suddenly struck the ground in front of him.

With a loud "boom," a deep charred mark appeared instantly where the object was hit, emitting wisps of black smoke.

He hadn't expected to be able to comprehend the meaning of thunder during his breakthrough. Now he understood the purpose of what Han Yue had left him; that fragment of the moon seemed to enhance his comprehension.

He still remembered the great difficulties he encountered when he comprehended the meaning of water, and ever since Han Yue gave him that piece of moonlight, that piece of moonlight would light up every time he had a breakthrough.

Moreover, when the white figure from the fox clan and Yun Mulin tried to do something to him, it was the glow of the moon fragment that stopped them.

"Han Yue, you've really given me a wonderful gift!"

Shen Xu knew that without that fragment, he might not have been able to comprehend the Sixfold Waves, and naturally he wouldn't have come to the Ancient Forest and obtained that black seed.

Finally, there was the tremendous boost brought to him by the Cloud and Mist Illusion Technique, a top-grade Earth-rank technique that was already incredibly powerful.

Now, as his cultivation level improves, the "illusion" attribute contained in his vital energy has become more and more prominent, especially for water-attribute martial arts, the power enhancement is quite terrifying.

His mist body is no longer just for show; it has taken on a substantial form and can attack in sync with his movements. Its duration and controllable range have both been significantly improved, making a four-on-one fight no longer a dream.

At this moment, Shen Xu suddenly felt a very familiar calling in the void, which made him look into the void, but that feeling quickly disappeared.
