Everlasting Chapter 493: Successive Breakthroughs (1/2)

Sensing the peculiar aura of the sword, the Void acupoint within Chen Feng's body kept stirring. Moreover, the speed and frequency at which it was stirring kept rising. It was then that Chen Feng instinctively channelled the Heavengulping Absorption Technique, causing strands of void power to enter his body. The strands of void power then a.s.sailed his Void acupoint.

Kacha! Kacha! Kacha! Kacha!

To Chen Feng's surprise, the Void acupoint – that he had attempted to break open many times in the past – began cracking. Almost immediately, a booming sound rang out. It was like the sound of a mountain cras.h.i.+ng down and ice cracking. The energy within the Void acupoint linked up with the void power emanating from Sacred Voidsoul Sword.

The streams of energy from the Void acupoint circulated throughout Chen Feng's body and he was visited by a strange sensation. It felt as though a chasm had appeared between his body and his surroundings. However, this sensation quickly disappeared. Although it had felt peculiar, Chen Feng decided to put it aside first. He had only just broken open his Void acupoint. Now was the time to increase his strength.

Truth be told, there was no need for Chen Feng to deliberately focus on increasing his strength. As the streams of energy from the Void acupoint flowed, his aura slowly and gradually grew.

Throughout the whole process, Chen Feng had not loosened his grip on the Sacred Voidsoul Sword at all. As the Void acupoint within his body kept operating, his strength continued to rise and the Sacred Voidsoul Sword kept sending strands of energy into Chen Feng's body. At the same time, the Sacred Voidsoul Sword was continuously linking up with Chen Feng.

After one joss stick's worth of time, the Sacred Voidsoul Sword became like a clump of smoke and it entered Chen Feng's body. It did not stop, moving continuously until it entered the Void acupoint. Then, it began roaming about within the Void acupoint, like a carp swimming about in a river.

Due to the Acupoint Aegis Art, the instant the Void acupoint entered a state of tranquillity, Chen Feng's whole body was affected. It was as though a huge boulder had been thrown into a water surface, causing the waters to splash out everywhere. That was exactly what Chen Feng was facing. The opening of his Void acupoint had caused changes to happen to his entire body. Void power and the other powers within the Sacred Voidsoul Sword kept moving across Chen Feng's body, causing every part of his body, his meridians, internal organs, bones, blood and energy to transform and grow stronger and stronger.

As expected of a Sacred artefact. Just the aura and power that it is subconsciously emanating could greatly increase my strength. Looks like I will have to target more Sacred artefacts in the future. Chen Feng thought, sensing the changes within his body.

Although his cultivation base had improved significantly, Chen Feng did not become excessively overjoyed. This was something that happened every time he opened an insight acupoint. Thus, he had gotten used to it.

“I am really lucky. I happened to be able to get exactly what I was missing.” Chen Feng then continued cultivating himself for two hours before stopping for a moment.

“Humph! Kid, you sure are lucky,” Tower said, shaking his head.

“Good that you know. Follow me and you will surely be able to recover your powers,” Chen Feng replied with a smile after hearing Tower's words.

“Hopefully, that is the case.” Tower simply nodded and said nothing else.

“Heh! Now, all that is lacking is the Actual acupoint and Return acupoint. These two insight acupoints should not take long to open.” Chen Feng laughed. Then, he waved a hand to pluck another Ice Pear, which he began munching. The cooling sensation washed over his entire body, giving him an incredibly pleasant feeling.

Chen Feng lay on the branch and rested for half a day. After the power inside his body had stabilized, Chen Feng then turned his attention towards the Four-sided Spirit Mace.

Sou!

Something flashed before Chen Feng's eyes all of a sudden and a boy with a bright smile on his face appeared right before him. Seeing that shocked Chen Feng so badly, he nearly fell off the tree.

“Tower, what gives? You scared me!” Chen Feng mumbled in dissatisfaction.

“There are only you and me here. What are you afraid of?” Tower said, plucking an Ice Pear that was behind him. Looking at it for a while, he then tossed it to Chen Feng. There was unhappiness in his eyes.

“What is it? Why aren't you eating it?” Chen Feng asked in a curious tone.

“Humph! If I can eat it, would I give it to you? It's because I am not strong enough and the body I formed has yet to reach the level where it can eat foods.” Tower shook his head.

“Well, that's too bad,” Chen Feng said, biting into the Ice Pear and munching before Tower.

“Kid, are you doing this on purpose?” The smile on Tower's face disappeared. However, Tower's boyish face could not create an impactful atmosphere. Instead, Chen Feng found that he looked even funnier.

“Tower, the Sacred Voidsoul Sword is a grade 4 Sacred artefact while the Four-sided Spirit Mace is a grade 5 Sacred artefact, right?” Chen Feng quickly changed the topic of discussion.

“Yes.” Tower nodded. His hand beckoned and the Four-sided Spirit Mace flew into his hand. After regarding it for a while, he tossed it over to Chen Feng.

It was heavy and a thick power of earth flowed about within it. Chen Feng felt as though he was holding a mountain.

The steel mace had 13 joints, squarish in shape and with well-defined corners. And yet, it looked quaint and simplistic, lacking in fancy designs. A cultivator who was lacking in strength would have a.s.sumed this to be an ordinary steel mace. However, Chen Feng was different. He could clearly sense the extraordinary aspects of this steel mace.
