Chapter 21: Fog
Yang Shi's mind clouded by intense rage. Yang Shi's pupil went bloodshot, just like the eye of the devil, was flooded completely crazily. He almost lost his sanity. He felt like his body is on fire. He felt thousands of ancient volcano are erupting but couldn't come out of his body. He felt like his body and flesh are tearing apart.
His heartbeat increased by three times, like it will burst out from his chest. His mind was filled with the desire to kill, slaughter, and destruction. When the pain reached its limit, an azure blue light enveloped him.
A cooling sensation spread through his body. Soon his mind calmed down. Unknown to him, his fiery red eyes are turning azure blue. Exhaustion filled his body as he fell asleep. In the dream, he saw the source of the blue light. It was the Azure blue Lotus, Which is inside of his DanTian.
" This thing saved me today. Damn, that Red Lilly, almost got me killed." Yang Shi hissed. From now one, he will never mess with some unknown treasure. " This Lotus, lemme try it." Yang Shi used his mental energy to peer into the lotus. A cold sensation invaded his mind.
"Mm, what happened? Was I dreaming?"
Yang Shi sat up, and while he massaged his aching head, he scanned around. He found out that the scene from before completely disappeared, and it made him feel that the previous experience was only a dream.
He quickly found out that something was different about him. He felt that his senses were extremely clear. Even the grass moving from the wind was detectable by him. He never had that feeling before.
" How is my senses became so acute?" Yang Shi wondered.
He looked at his reflection in the water. He concentrated and saw, in his purple pupil, the proportion of azure color increased and crimson color decreased. And his eyesight became more clear. His pupils looked purple but it's actually the mixture of azure blue and fiery red.
" My eyes look so strange but attractive."
" Could it be that Azure Blue Lotus increase my senses?" Yang Shi thought. Yang Shi opened his palm and a white stream of mist rolled over.
" I can even manifest Spiritual Qi with less effort. The lotus also increased my mental energy." Yang Shi was overjoyed.
Then he looked around him, to find some broken trees and mawed ground. Like a hurricane passed from here.
" W-What happened?" Yang Shi was flabbergasted. Then he saw the cut marks of sword on the trees.
" Wait, Where is my sword?" Yang Shi saw out of his two swords, one is snapped from the middle, and another one's tip is missing.
T _ T
" My swords." When Yang Shi went crazy, he drew his sword and slashed his surrounding. With his tremendous power, trees slashed in half. A giant rock had a deep cut mark. The swords couldn't handle the raw power of Yang Shi and broke apart. Then Yang Shi felt his muscles increased a little.
" Don't tell me...
Yang Shi rushed and lifted a tree trunk. It would take tree adults to wrap around the tree trunk. It should be around a hundred Kg. But Yang Shi lifted it with ease.
*Huuuu* " The pain caused by the red Lilly helped me to breakthrough to [ Flesh Transformation Stage] of Origin Chaos Energy Gathering Art.
One can lift a hundred kilo of weight when they reached [ Flesh Transformation Stage]. But Yang Shi felt he could at least live 200 Killos with ease.
" This body is perfect for martial arts." On earth, one has to practice for five years to achieve such strength. But, Yang Shi reached such a realm in a few weeks.
" Unless a cultivator can use magic arts proficiently. I am unrivaled in [ Spiritual Ascension Realm]"
Yang Shi laughed.
What Yang Shi needs now is some powerful magic arts, but sadly, In the memory of Samsara Emperor, almost all the powerful magic arts can be used at [ Primordial Spirit Awakening Realm].
After cracking his mind, Yang Shi finally got a decent magic art. It's a defensive technique named [ Radiant Guard].
[ Radiant Guard] can draw out spiritual Qi inside from the body and creates a shield which ward off physical attacks. It has four stages in this technique, ( Invisible barrier), ( Magic Protection), ( Innate Shield), and ( Golden Gate ). The first stage - ( Invisible barrier), helps to create a formless shield which stops physical attacks. The second stage ( Magic Protection) - In this stage, the practitioner can create a solid, physical barrier, Which also stops magic techniques.
This technique works as long as there is Spiritual Qi, once a cultivator's spiritual Qi exhaust, He can't use any magic technique, along with [ Radiant Guard]
In innate shield stage, One doesn't need to fear from physical attacks, even he didn't activate [ Radiant Guard], because, the spiritual Qi automatically revolve and protect your body.
" Well, this is the best I can do now." Yang Shi muttered.
Well, Yang Shi again picked up his backpack and continued his journey.
*Bruh* " Walking through the forest is seriously boring" Yang Shi was utterly bored by his daily works. Wake up, walk, Kill ferocious beasts, roast them, take rest, walk again then sleep. Yang Shi almost felt like, he was a robot.
" How the fuck is Deep Sky forest is so long? Yang Shi roared. It has been two weeks in the forest. Yang Shi has fully mastered [ Flying Feathere] and reached the initial stage of [ Radiant Guard], The invisible barrier.
" Where the hell are the beauties and those arrogant young master, Whom I will face slap?" If he hadn't seen the demonic beasts and those bandits, Yang Shi would have doubted if he is real he is really in a cultivation world. Well, daily battle with powerful beasts helped Yang Shi to consolidate his foundation. Yang Shi reached the 6th level of the Spiritual Ascension realm. Yang Shi felt his cultivation is rising fast, but not the( Origin Chaos Energy art)
Yang Shi Still stuck at [ Flesh Transformation Stage]
but he wasn't worried. One day He checked the map and became happy. " Finally, I reached the border of Azure Feather Ancient Kingdom." As Yang Shi sped up, his surroundings began to change. Suddenly a thick, white fog surrounded the forest. With a thought, His eyes turned deep purple as he stared into the fog.
" Even if I am using the Azure Blue Lotus, I can't see in much depth. Since that the case, I have to figure it out on my own." Yang Shi walked into the fog.
