Chapter 587: Compressing Qi
Xue Wei felt that the different bloodlines were fully combined, and he could sense a powerful current rush through his body.
The current felt slightly electrifying, but as soon as the jolting feeling had vanished, an indescribable comfort lingered.
The electricity seemed to diminish in power the further through the body it went, and as the last spark vanished, an uproar broke out in the heaven and earth essence surrounding Xue Wei.
While the previous merge of bloodlines had happened without any visual differences, the sudden change in the aura around Xue Wei made the others wake up from their cultivation and glance at him in curiosity.
The powerful energy made them certain that he had succeeded in the merge, but they still felt a need to look him over to ensure that nothing had gone wrong.
They had all seen Xue Wei cultivating before, and it was not the first time he had been absorbing the bloodline of a Sovereign Beast either, but unlike before, he did not seem to be struggling.
His face was ruddy and seemed very healthy. His eyes were closed, and he was clearly relaxed. It was as if he was sleeping, and the tranquility that surrounded him could not be interrupted by anyone.
Although the others had smiles on their faces as they understood that he had truly succeeded, none of them made any sounds to celebrate. They understood very well that although Xue Wei had passed the hurdle of integrating yet another bloodline, he was still not out of danger.
The activation of his Black Turtle bloodline had clearly triggered some sort of response, and all the essence in the air was turning turbulent to a point where it was possible to see the gleams of energy with the naked eye.
All the energy rushed towards Xue Wei. It entered his body with no intention to slow down, but although most people would be overwhelmed with this amount of essence, it was as if his body had turned into a great black hole that absorbed everything greedily.
Usually, such wanton absorption was dangerous, but it was not the first time for Xue Wei to experience this phenomenon, and his companions had also witnessed it before, so they took no action to interrupt.
Since he dared to absorb all this energy, then he definitely had some method to deal with it, and they patiently waited for him to wake up.
Xue Wei was indeed able to deal with the large quantities of energy. The energy that had appeared after merging the bloodlines had slowly diminished alongside the electricity, but a certain vacancy had appeared in his body, and it was greedily absorbing the essence to refine it and fill up the emptiness inside.
Xue Wei had never before felt like this. H dantian was empty, but he still felt very comfortable.
However, as the Qi swiftly filled up the dantian once more, he began to experience a strange bloating sensation.
His dantian had been filled completely, but the energy was still rapidly entering his body, and it showed no signs of stopping.
Under normal circumstances, it would become very dangerous if he did not stop it, but a strange feeling kept telling him that it was fine.
He had to grit his teeth and stand firm in the face of the pain, but as more and more energy pressed its way into his dantian, he began to feel excruciating pain, as cracks began to appear on the dantian wall.
Such a situation had never happened before, and Xue Wei was well aware that if his dantian got hurt, then he would suffer great repercussions. One could not cultivate in this mortal world without a dantian, and thus he had always protected it well.
However, due to his mixed breed, his dantian had always been very weird, and now that the energy was threatening to collapse it, he witnessed how the dantian began to fight back.
In the center was a strange translucent shadow of the azure dragon, the vermilion bird, and the black turtle, and the three of them suddenly began to spin around each other at a rapid speed.
All the energy that entered his dantian was absorbed by them, and a dense ball of Qi had gathered in the middle of their circle, resulting in powerful eruptions of energy emitting outwards, but not interfering with the three shadows at all.
As the Qi within his dantian was constantly being compressed, more and more essence was frantically entering his body and getting refined, before it, too, got swallowed by the spinning ball.
Xue Wei began to feel very perplexed. Although all of this was happening within his body, he was more like a bystander who observed the changes curiously. No matter the outcome, he would not be able to change what was happening, so instead he decided it was better to try to understand the situation.
As the ball grew in size, the dantian’s walls became more and more unstable. Large cracks appeared all over, and he was unable to mend them; not to mention, it was clear that the energy ripples thrown out from the ball in the middle were intending to destroy his dantian completely.
It stands to reason that such an experience had to be extremely painful, but Xue Wei was still feeling comfortable, and he even felt as if the energy that leaked out of his cracked dantian was nurturing and healing his body instead of harming him.
Also, it was common knowledge that a cultivator would be useless without their dantian, but for some reason, Xue Wei did not feel as if the energy was diminishing less and less. Instead, the constant influx of refined Qi made him feel more powerful than ever.
