Chapter 162: Core Soul Energy Rising

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

In the cave, Chen Fei was grinding all kinds of medicinal herbs and carefully mixing the medicinal liquid.

Two days had already pa.s.sed, and Chen Fei was concentrating on matching the medicinal herbs. Fortunately, after a few days of experimentation, Chen Fei already had a perfect formula.

He had also found the required medicinal herbs in the past two days. He could only say that there were really many medicinal herbs in this mystic realm. If he were to search carefully, he would be able to reap some benefits.

Guo Linshan watched Chen Fei’s technique from the side, and at the same time, he carefully guarded his surroundings.

“Alright!”

As the last ingredient was added, a bowl of medicine appeared in Chen Fei’s hand. The smell was slightly pungent, and the color was a little strange, but Chen Fei’s face was full of confidence.

“What should we do later?”

Guo Linshan’s expression was slightly excited. If there was a chance, Guo Linshan naturally hoped to swallow the lotus seed. After all, it could directly strengthen his own Core soul energy.

Looking at Chen Fei’s confident expression, Guo Linshan felt more at ease. After all, Chen Fei rarely did things that he was not confident in.

“I’ll throw the lotus seed and lotus leaf into it later. There should be some movement. When the reaction is over, we can swallow the lotus seed.”

As Chen Fei spoke, he took out the Heart Pearl fragment from his bosom and placed it around the jade box.

The lotus seeds and leaves were still connected to the Dreamlike Lotus, but they were now more than ten miles away from each other, so it was hard for them to interact with each other. Chen Fei did not worry about the bead fragments, but it was just a precaution.

As the jade box was opened, the lotus seeds and leaves trembled, but they did not move.

Chen Fei waved his right hand and swept all the lotus seeds and leaves into the medicinal liquid.

“Squeak!”

Suddenly, a sharp cry came from the bowl, piercing everyone’s eardrums. Chen Fei quickly covered the stone bowl with his hand to prevent the lotus seed and leaf from jumping out.

The screams lasted for less than a breath before they died down. However, Chen Fei did not remove his hand and continued to cover it with his hand. Chen Fei only removed his hand after 15 minutes had pa.s.sed, and there was no other movement in the bowl.

The originally emerald green medicinal liquid had become much clearer at some point in time. One could see the lotus seeds and leaves lying quietly at the bottom of the bowl.

“Can we eat now?”

Guo Linshan asked hesitantly, mainly because the scream just now was somewhat annoying. It was just mystical ingredients, but now it was so abnormal that Guo Linshan became cautious.

“Alright, I’ll go first.”

As Chen Fei spoke, he took out the nearly crushed lotus seed from the bowl and swallowed it.

Compared to Guo Linshan, Chen Fei had enough confidence to swallow the lotus seed. Other than his confidence in the formula, he was also confident in the Suppressing Dragon Elephant and the Thousand Origin Technique.

The Thousand Origin Technique had been suppressed by Dreamlike Lotus’s true body, but it wasn’t as bad as it was now.

When the lotus seed entered his mouth, it tasted a little strange, but other than the texture, there was nothing strange.

As time pa.s.sed, Chen Fei felt the lotus seed being digested. A cool feeling slowly spread throughout Chen Fei’s entire sea of consciousness. There was a feeling of floating in the air, but it wouldn’t really make you intoxicated.

The feeling of being half-awake and half-drunk filled Chen Fei’s senses. After an unknown period of time, Chen Fei woke up slightly.

As if he had just woken up from a dream, as if he had just had a sweet sleep, Chen Fei felt that his mind was incomparably clear and agile.

The Thousand Origin Technique was very active, not because it was in danger, but because it was stimulated and unconsciously wanted to circulate.

“Little junior brother, are you alright?” Guo Linshan asked with concern when he saw Chen Fei open his eyes.

“How long will 1 close my eyes for?” Chen Fei asked with a smile.

“Less than fifteen minutes.” Guo Linshan thought for a moment and said.

“I seem to have slept for a day and a night.”

Chen Fei handed over the stone bowl in his hand and said, “There’s no problem with the lotus seed.”

“Good!”

Guo Linshan’s eyes lit up. Since Chen Fei said that there was no problem, Guo Linshan would not doubt it. Reaching out, he took out a lotus seed from the stone bowl and swallowed it.

The strange taste made Guo Linshan involuntarily recall the scene in the pool. However, very soon, a feeling of floating hit Guo Linshan’s heart, and he could not help but immerse himself in it.

In less than fifteen minutes, Guo Linshan also woke up. He could clearly feel the growth of his core soul energy, and the joy on his face could not be suppressed.

Taking advantage of Guo Linshan’s rest, Chen Fei picked up the second lotus seed and put it into his mouth. The feeling of being half-asleep and half-awake came again. The Thousand Origin Technique quickly circulated to help Chen Fei absorb the increasing core soul energy.

After an hour, Guo Linshan had finished consuming all three of his lotus seeds. He then walked out of the cave and stood guard for Chen Fei.

Chen Fei didn’t say that he would give Guo Linshan a lotus seed from his stash because he knew Guo Linshan’s character. He would never ask for another lotus seed. If Chen Fei really said it out loud, it would cause Guo Linshan’s displeasure.

Chen Fei swallowed the remaining lotus seeds and leaves.

Normal Dreamlike Lotuses don’t put much of a burden on the body. They will gradually increase your mental strength.

The medicinal power of this mutated Dreamlike Lotus was undoubtedly much stronger, but after removing the strange thoughts contained in it, Chen Fei, who had the Thousand Origin Technique, didn’t feel much burden absorbing it.

A day pa.s.sed very quickly. Chen Fei and the other man had completely stabilized the growth of their core soul energy.

Chen Fei estimated his own core soul energy. Compared to before he consumed it, Chen Fei had increased by about 30%. This was an extremely obvious increase that somewhat exceeded Chen Fei’s expectations.

In other words, Chen Fei’s current mental strength had already surpa.s.sed those at the Visceral Tempering realm who did not cultivate mental strength techniques. As for those who cultivated Mind and Heart cultivation techniques, they would have to compete to know which one was stronger.

This was just a small part of the Dreamlike Lotus. If he could consume the entire lotus, Chen Feixin’s divine power would double.

However, this kind of thing could only be imagined.

The Dreamlike Lotus was so powerful because its core soul energy had far surpa.s.sed the level of the Body Tempering realm. The number of people didn’t mean much in front of the Dreamlike Lotus unless you were an Aperture Tempering realm expert.

The mental strength of the Aperture Tempering realm, after being nourished by the apertures and Vital Energy, was far superior to that of a body refinement realm martial artist in both quality and quant.i.ty.

Compared to the Dreamlike Lotus, it might be inferior in quant.i.ty, but it was much better in quality. The Dreamlike Lotus couldn’t affect an Aperture Tempering realm expert.

When the Dreamlike Lotus’s mental energy can’t affect you, it’s no longer a threat.

For people like Chen Fei, they couldn’t even tell if what they saw was real or not because they couldn’t escape the influence of the Dreamlike Lotus.

It was an impossible dream to pick the Dreamlike Lotus.

If an Aperture Tempering realm expert saw this mutated Dreamlike Lotus, they would be tempted. It was a huge help to those at the aperture tempering state.

“Junior brother, where are we going next?” Guo Linshan felt refreshed, and his eyes were bright. This was the external manifestation of his sudden increase in his core soul energy.

“We…”

Chen Fei’s words suddenly stopped as his ears twitched. The growth of his core soul energy was also extremely obvious in terms of the improvement of his five senses. At this moment, Chen Fei’s perception could hear some faint sounds.

Guo Linshan saw Chen Fei’s expression and immediately sensed it. However, compared to Chen Fei, Guo Linshan could only feel something unusual, a hint of danger approaching.

Chen Fei’s figure flashed and came to a huge rock outside the cave, looking down at his surroundings from a high vantage point.

A gentle breeze blew, blowing Chen Fei’s hair back. Chen Fei held the bow in his left hand and scanned his surroundings.

Guo Linshan appeared beside Chen Fei, wielding a broadsword with both hands, like a warrior protecting an archer.

“Why aren’t you waiting in the forest? Have you started to run out recently?”

The bow and arrow in Chen Fei’s hand disappeared and shot into the gra.s.s dozens of meters away.

With a sharp whistle, the force of the arrow exploded, creating a huge hole in the wall. A figure jumped up from the middle and retreated a few meters before stopping. He looked at Chen Fei in surprise.

“You guys again!”

Guo Linshan looked at Fu Zhaoxing and shouted angrily. He had been intercepted in the forest previously. He did not expect that after a few days, the other party would directly come knocking on his door.

“We meet everywhere in life. 1 didn’t expect to meet you guys again.”

A smile appeared on Fu Zhaoxing’s face, but there was no smile in his eyes. Today, the metal plate was not with him. Fu Zhaoxing did not need to reveal any flaws in his movement technique in order to conceal the fluctuations of the metal plate.

But even so, he was still seen through by Chen Fei at a glance. How could Fu Zhaoxing not be surprised?

Chen Fei did not say anything. He flipped the bow in his hand and shot out five arrows in a row. Five holes were blasted in the gra.s.s, and at the same time, the other five people were forced out.

One of the unlucky ones was a little slow in dodging. His thigh was grazed by the arrow, and his flesh was instantly mangled. Blood splattered everywhere as he cried out in pain.

“You’ve gained a lot in the past few days!”

Chen Fei sensed the jade token that one of them was carrying and turned to look at Fu Zhaoxing. The five arrows just now were a warning to Fu Zhaoxing and the others that the movement technique they were so proud of was nothing in front of Chen Fei.

If it were before consuming the lotus seed, Chen Fei would not have been able to find these people so easily. But now that his core soul energy had increased by 30%, many things that he couldn’t do in the past were now easily accomplished.

Let’s go!”

The smile on Fu Zhaoxing’s face disappeared. He gave Chen Fei a vicious look, waved his hand, and retreated.

Six against two, the chances of winning were naturally very high. However, Fu Zhaoxing could not see through Chen Fei. He felt that this Marrow Tempering realm martial artist was a little strange and always did things that exceeded his expectations.

There were still many jade tokens in the mystic realm. Fu Zhaoxing did not need to waste his energy here at all. The gains did not make up for the losses.

Guo Linshan let out a sigh of relief as he watched them leave. If they really fought, they could only retreat while fighting. However, Chen Fei’s movement technique was outstanding, so they would not be in any danger.

“The time in the mystic realm is almost halfway past. This kind of thing will become more and more common in the future,” Guo Linshan said in a deep voice.

It was important to search for mystical ingredients in the mystic realm to strengthen oneself. However, as time approached, it became more important. Instead, it was to collect enough iron cards to complete the true inheritance trial mission.

Chen Fei nodded. Just as he was about to speak, he frowned and raised his head to look ahead. Fu Zhaoxing and the others, who had already gone far away, were currently running over in a frenzy.

Chen Fei saw many scarlet eyes behind Fu Zhaoxing and the others.

“Be careful, it seems we’re not alone out here..”
