Chapter 634 Abnormal Changes Within the Body!
“Poof!”
Method felt a hot sensation in his throat and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
This situation had occurred many times before, caused by excessive expansion of the dantian leading to reverse flow of true qi.
But this time, the situation was different.
Method looked inward at his dantian.
At this moment, the small golden dragon was still coiling there.
But above the dantian, a small point of light had appeared.
Tiny bits of red radiance were slowly gathering toward this point of light.
And this point of light was gradually growing larger.
Method could sense the sacred aura contained within this light point, along with endless heat.
Clearly, this light point was the manifestation of the Phoenix Origin within his body.
But this process of absorbing the Phoenix Origin was completely opposite to the previous absorption of the Divine Dragon Origin.
Absorbing the Divine Dragon Origin hadn’t increased pressure on his dantian; after absorption, it had actually somewhat reduced the burden on his dantian.
But this time, just as he began absorbing the Phoenix Origin, his dantian started experiencing intense pain.
Method could endure this intense pain, but the message conveyed by this pain wasn’t good.
If he forcibly accommodated another divine beast origin, would his dantian be able to withstand it?
On this point, Method wasn’t confident.
If he encountered such a situation, he had no countermeasures.
If the dantian he had cultivated for five thousand years were to burst, the true qi released from within… was unimaginable.
But at this moment, Method couldn’t do anything.
He couldn’t possibly reject the Phoenix Origin that had actively come to him, could he?
Looking at it from another angle, if he could break through to the ten thousandth layer of Qi Refinement by absorbing this origin, then any risk would be acceptable.
Method stopped thinking about it and looked ahead.
By now, Ming River had struggled to his feet.
However, his current appearance was quite horrifying.
His entire right side had been almost completely destroyed by Method’s punch earlier, leaving charred marks.
Ming River looked at Method ahead of him, feeling only shock and terror.
Without the enhancement of the Blood Spirit Pill, that single punch would have been enough to destroy his entire body!
How could the power of this Method be so overwhelming!
“He is Method Longevity! We must find a way to contact the Immortal and have him rescue us!” Cold Enchantress transmitted a message to Ming River while struggling to deal with Red Lotus’s frenzied attacks.
Hearing Cold Enchantress’s words, Ming River’s face darkened to the extreme.
Method Longevity… the person Senior Dao Void had specifically ordered to eliminate.
Besides capturing spiritual beasts, his second mission with Cold Enchantress was to deal with Method Longevity.
But he never expected Method Longevity to appear in such a place and seize the Phoenix Origin!
Even more unexpected was that Method Longevity’s strength would be so overwhelming!
But in the current situation, escape would be extremely difficult.
Ming River lowered his head, looking at his destroyed right side, and gritted his teeth.
Fortunately, with the enhancement of the Blood Spirit Pill, he didn’t feel much pain.
But the effects of the Blood Spirit Pill would eventually wear off.
So, he had to spiritualize!
Ming River raised his left hand, bit it hard to draw blood, and then silently recited an incantation.
“Boom!”
A fierce spiritual energy erupted from within him.
Layer upon layer of scales appeared on the surface of his skin.
At the same time, his lost right side was visibly regenerating.
As a Source Devourer, Ming River had absorbed the essence of a two-headed python.
Besides having exceptionally hard scales, the two-headed python’s most prominent feature was its regenerative ability.
As long as its head wasn’t split in two, any severed body part wasn’t fatal to it, and it could regenerate flesh and blood in a short time.
After spiritualizing, Ming River immediately gained the abilities of the two-headed python, rapidly regenerating his entire right side.
Of course, this regenerative ability consumed a significant amount of spiritual beast essence.
But Ming River had absorbed a two-headed python just three months ago, so the essence within him was quite abundant.
“Whoosh!”
As Ming River’s body was rapidly regenerating, Method flew toward him.
The intense pain in his dantian increased as the light point grew larger.
Regardless, Method needed to clear away these pests first, then settle down to slowly absorb the Phoenix Origin.
By the time Method arrived, Ming River’s body had basically completed its regeneration.
But after witnessing Method’s physical strength, he knew he couldn’t confront Method head-on again.
His best option now was to escape!
“Shadow Art!” Ming River formed hand seals, and his form immediately split into dozens of clones.
Most of these clones charged toward Method, while about a dozen fled in different directions.
Ming River wanted to use these illusions to confuse Method and escape his pursuit!
This technique of Ming River’s indeed had strong deceptive properties.
At the very least, all these dozens of clones emitted the same aura.
It was impossible to distinguish the real body by aura alone.
At the same time, these approaching clones were all physical entities with certain attacking power.
Method didn’t want to waste any more time. His gaze sharpened, and his pupils flashed with red light.
White runes appeared in his red pupils and began to rotate.
In the vision of the Eye of Insight, the difference between the real body and clones was quite significant.
No matter how realistic, clones were formed from true qi.
The real body was actual flesh and blood.
With just one glance, Method found Ming River’s real location.
He was directly ahead in a straight line.
Method raised his right hand and struck out a palm.
The dozens of clones that had rushed up were all destroyed.
At the same time, the white runes in Method’s pupils rotated rapidly.
To directly decompose a living person into powder particles would be quite simple if the target were an ordinary person.
But Ming River was no ordinary person, and after spiritualizing, his flesh density was extremely high. Decomposing him would take longer and wouldn’t be easy.
So Method didn’t choose to directly decompose Ming River, but used the Eye of Insight to completely sever Ming River’s connection with the outside world.
Ming River, who had been flying rapidly, suddenly changed expression!
He felt that the true qi he was releasing outward was suddenly blocked!
For Ming River, this situation was the first time he had encountered it in his life!
With abundant true qi inside his body, yet unable to use it!
“Bang!”
Ming River’s body was completely out of control, crashing heavily onto the ground with a dull thud.
“Whoosh!”
Method’s figure swept down from the sky, instantly arriving above Ming River. He raised his right foot and stomped down.
“Ah…”
Ming River’s face changed drastically. With a loud cry, he hurriedly raised both arms to block.
“Boom!”
The power of this kick caused Ming River and the surrounding ground to sink several inches with a thunderous crash!
…
“The person carrying the Spirit Core Stone is at the mountaintop. We need to hurry.”
Sinking Wood and Trembling Cloud had reached the mountainside, but looking up, they still couldn’t see the mountaintop.
They had tried flying with qi earlier, but soon couldn’t withstand the pressure and had to resort to walking.
During their ascent, they sensed the consecutive bursts of energy from the mountaintop.
They knew a battle was definitely taking place at the top.
As for who the combatants were, they didn’t know.
“Senior Brother, I think both parties fighting at the mountaintop are very powerful…” Sinking Wood said to Trembling Cloud beside him.
Trembling Cloud didn’t speak, his eyes flickering.
Even without Sinking Wood mentioning it, he could sense the waves of energy coming from the mountaintop.
Judging by the energy, those fighting at the mountaintop were at least at the Nascent Soul stage or even the Spirit Transformation stage.
Such powerful beings weren’t rare in the former cultivation world, but in today’s martial world, they were extremely scarce.
At least since Sinking Wood and Trembling Cloud’s souls had awakened, they hadn’t encountered cultivators of this level.
Given their current strength, they could contend with a Spirit Transformation stage cultivator, but their chances of winning would only be about fifty percent.
Regardless, with only one Spirit Core Stone left to collect, they had to complete the set.
“We must take this risk, at least go up to the mountaintop to determine who has the Spirit Core Stone. If the opponent is indeed too strong, we can make other plans later,” Trembling Cloud said.
Sinking Wood nodded.
The two increased their speed to the maximum and rapidly climbed the high mountain.
