Chapter 20 - Extreme Reflexes (1/2)

At that moment, Zhong Yue could not feel anything as his senses, including his pores, were tightly shut. Every morsel of power was sealed off inside of him with no way to escape—his soul had never been this solid before!

The inner evil that was born had been eradicated and this allowed to reach a miraculous state.

Time was stopped, and everything seemed to be progressing very slowly as if it would take forever to do anything at all.

This was the moment one would experience after chasing away his fear. A serenity where one would enter a state of unprecedented concentration—a moment where one's reflexes would reach the pinnacle!

This purported state was an oddly fantastic sensation created when one's body, psyche, and soul were operating in overdrive!

Just imagine… when one's eyes were able to capture something moving at ten times the speed of any normal person, any object moving at normal speeds would appear ten times slower in their eyes.

If one could perceive things ten times faster than the normative speed, then they would realize that time was progressing ten times slower around them!

And if one's body, psyche, and soul had all entered this wondrous state, they would be able to unleash unstoppable strength and a tremendous level of psyche control!

If one trained in this state, they would be able to achieve incredibly fast progress!

The medicinal efficacy of the three Feather Spirit Pellets was being absorbed incessantly by Zhong Yue's body, and the efficacy of the pellets was converted into his psyche a crazily fast speed. His soul was nourished, allowing the Sui Sovereign formed by his soul to appear even more majestic and magnificent!

Such rapid absorption and conversion speed of the medicinal efficacy was that he had never even fathomed.

But now, it had become a reality!

Zhong Yue could not feel how long had it been ever since he leaped off the cliff. In the state of extremity, he responded to everything incredibly quickly, causing the time around him to crawl to a halt.

Time quietly elapsed and Xin Huo suddenly shouted, "Unleash everything at once!"

Upon hearing his words, Zhong Yue opened up his eyes and felt his state of extremity coming to an end. Other than that, his falling speed had hiked up to a point beyond imagination, and he was coming increasingly close to tragically meeting his end at the cliff bottom!

At this speed, even if he had a pair of wings, he would still be crushed into a pile of meat at his rate of descent!

Swooooosh——

As Zhong Yue opened his eyes, he was already level with the hundred-feet tall trees at the cliff bottom. With his current speed, he would crash into the cliff bottom in the blink of an eye!

Xin Huo also started to sound nervous and shouted, "Now! Unleash every ounce of strength you have in your body, psyche, and soul at once, or you will die for sure!"

"Jiao Dragon Winding Body!"

Zhong Yue shouted and after a loud thunderous noise, a thunder Jiao Dragon that was ferociously brandishing its claws formed around his body!

"Sui Sovereign!"

"[Horizontal Thunder Control]!"

Zhong Yue's shout, the dragon's roar, and the thunderous cacophony formed a discordant symphony. His soul flew out and transformed into the gigantic Sui Sovereign, increasing the power of the lightning Jiao Dragon, and suddenly, the trees at the cliff bottom seemed to be ravaged by a massive tornado. A ferocious Jiao Dragon wrapped in lightning could be seen faintly rampaging throughout the forest!

Trees fell onto the ground, earth shattered into rubble and animals fled quickly in the path of the thunder dragon.

Boom!

A lightning Jiao Dragon wound around Zhong Yue's body and in a split second, he moved horizontally for a few thousand feet before crashing down onto the ground.

Waves of mud, soil, and rock were propelled omnidirectionally concomitantly with the crash, and a huge crater was formed. Zhong Yue could be seen kneeling down on one knee with his arms supporting him on the ground. Vigorous lightning sparks could also be seen emanating from his body; they flashed towards the ground and charred it black.

Phew… I survived…

Zhong Yue got up, and suddenly, a sharp dizziness hit him, and he felt an immense pain coming from his limbs. He could also feel his psyche ocean trembling so hard as if it would tear brain asunder. For a moment, he almost could not stand still, and he was on the verge of fainting.

In his body, the three Feather Spirit Pellets' efficacies had depleted, and he could even feel his body growing weak as his psyche and soul was draining energy from his body!

In that short period of time, he had unleashed every reserve of strength in his body, psyche, and soul in its entirety!

"Consume another three Feather Spirit Pellets!"

Xing Huo said, "Your soul and psyche is in a hyperactive condition you have never had before, and this condition is taking a toll on your body. You must consume additional Feather Spirit Pellets to replenish some energy or your body's remaining energy will be drained completely, at which point you will die."

Zhong Yue immediately took out three Feather Spirit Pellets and consumed them all. He had also heard a story similar to what Xing Huo said. They said a mother along with her child in a tribe had met with an earthquake and their house collapsed as a result. When a colossal pillar was on the verge of falling onto the child, the mother miraculously lifted the pillar to ultimately save her child!

The child was saved, but the mother who lifted up the pillar died shortly after that. There was no trace of injury on her body, and she had no history of infirmity. Perhaps, the motherly love she had for her child triggered her state of extremity, granting her a transient, but immense strength. Her energy was quickly drained away, and she had no medicinal pellets like Feather Spirit Pellets to replenish herself, resulting in her ultimate death.
