Everlasting Chapter 117: Absorbing Earthen Energy (1/2)

“There are earthen energy and blood energy within. It seems my body has absorbed the Scarlet Blood Pills' medicinal power and grown considerably stronger. I wonder, how much stronger can my fleshly body get after absorbing the rest of the Scarlet Blood Pills?”

“After opening the Magnetic acupoints, I can sense earthen energy and absorb them. The earth contains everything. By absorbing the power of the earth into myself, there is no limit to how much I can strengthen my fleshly body. It is even more effective compared to the best fleshly body cultivation technique.” Chen Feng recalled the contents of the Longevity Scripture.

The earth-type possessed the strongest defence amongst the five elements. Additionally, the earth was a vast existence which encompa.s.sed the entire Eternal World. By practicing earth-type cultivation techniques to a high level, some cultivators can steadily absorb earthen energy and become undefeatable.

Therefore, Chen Feng, who had opened up his Magnetic acupoints, can draw support from the vast earthen energy. His magic power could rise high; even his fleshly body would continuously grow stronger.

“What is it? What happened?” Ye Ziming and Lu Ta, who were somewhere else, rushed towards him.

They had a.s.sumed that some other cultivators were here to cause trouble. After seeing Chen Feng, however, the two of them grew stunned before easing up.

“Brother Chen, how are the injuries on your body?” asked Ye Ziming.

“They are all fully healed,” replied Chen Feng with a smile.

“What? Fully healed already? So fast?” Ye Ziming and Lu Ta exclaimed.

Amongst the three, Chen Feng's injuries had been the heaviest. After this period of recuperation, Ye Ziming and Lu Ta had only managed to heal up around one third of their injuries. And yet, Chen Feng had fully healed up. Seeing that shocked Ye Ziming and Lu Ta.

“Eh?” After recovering from his shock, Ye Ziming noticed Chen Feng's state.

“Stepping on two devices, absorb earthen energy. You opened up the Magnetic acupoints?” Ye Ziming grew even more shocked. Although the opening of insight acupoints sounded easy, it was actually not so. Without certain special techniques, knowing about the existence of insight acupoints alone was insufficient to open them. Generally, only the large immortal dao sects, some ancient legacy clans or some powerful demonic sects could possess the special methods required for the opening of insight acupoints. At that moment, however, Chen Feng had opened up his Magnetic acupoints after taking two Scarlet Blood Pills. Seeing that further convinced Ye Ziming that Chen Feng had received some powerful legacies before.

“Tsk tsk! After opening the Magnetic acupoints, you will be able to rely on your own body to fly. Additionally, after having shaken off the earth's gravitational power, your future rate of cultivation will grow even faster,” said Ye Ziming with a smile. However, he was not too envious. Truth be told, he too, possessed a technique for opening insight acupoints. He had simply not opened them up yet.

“Brother Chen, it seems you truly intend on opening up your 2nd sea of wisdom layer in one go,” said Ye Ziming cheerfully.

“Yes. I can feel my power filling up. It is at the tipping point. This time, I want to raise my level to level 2 of the Concealed stage.” Chen Feng nodded.

“In that case, we will not be bothering you. At any rate, we will need some time to fully heal up our injuries as well,” replied Ye Ziming with a smile.

“Ha ha ha! Brother Chen, thanks to your Scarlet Blood Pills, my fleshly body will grow stronger again once I recover. Additionally, I can also open up a secret insight acupoint!” Lu Ta laughed out loudly.

Watching Ye Ziming and Lu Ta leave, Chen Feng was unable to stop himself from smiling. These two friends of his were not ordinary characters. Ye Ziming was highly knowledgeable and he knew much about most of the immortal dao sects. Additionally, he came from the Central Plains. He was certainly not an ordinary cultivator.

Lu Ta appeared brutish, but there was a certain savviness within his brutish behaviour. He was a very shrewd fellow. Additionally, there was a certain standard to his cultivation techniques. Although the Endless Sky of Turbidity staff he wielded was not a Prized artefact, it was still a high-grade Magic artefact. He was much stronger compared to the average loose cultivators.

Chen Feng could see that both of them had secrets. However, the same was true about himself. The three of them had experienced life and death together. They had crossed the river on the same boat – metaphorically speaking – and now bore a sense of loyalty towards each other. They would help one another, even in the face of death.

Chen Feng smiled at the thought and immersed himself into cultivation again. He began sensing and grasping the power of the earth.

As the days went by, Chen Feng felt his senses growing stronger and it felt as though roots had truly spread out from his feet into the ground. His ten toes were seemingly elongating, transforming into roots. As for his tiny pores, they kept ejecting spout after spout of energy streams, which fused with the earth, becoming one with the earth.

With every breath Chen Feng took, earthen energy would surge into his Magnetic acupoints. Chen Feng then absorbed and refined the energy to strengthen his fleshly body.

As the earthen energy absorbed gradually grew, a yellow-coloured stream of light gradually appeared, enveloping him. Finally, the light transformed into a faint-yellow ball of light and it was no longer possible to make out Chen Feng's silhouette.

On the tenth day of his cultivation practice, Chen Feng's thoughts suddenly converged and his entire being, which was in a state of cultivation, woke up. The yellow-coloured ball of light around him slowly dissipated as it sank into Chen Feng's body.

Earlier, Chen Feng had become one with his surroundings and his spiritual senses kept expanding. Within a radius of over 1,000 metres, neither the winds nor the fluttering gra.s.ses could escape his notice.

“Someone is coming! Additionally, it would appear that they are here for us. Could they be from the Six Great Sky Grottoes?” Chen Feng pondered. Next, the Magnetic acupoints on his feet began firing out once more as wave after wave of mysterious power fused with the earth. Once again, Chen Feng's spiritual senses expanded. It was a novel sensation, as though he had expanded his divine sense. Invisible ripples spread underground. Every movement within its radius was returned to Chen Feng's mind.
