Chapter 991: Chapter 991: Breakthrough!!
If the Vitality Water hadn’t frozen, and hadn’t merged into Zhao Yi’s body, Liu Zixuan would probably have been puzzled about Zhao Yi’s arm for a long time.
But in that instant just now, it was like breaking through a realm bottleneck, directly making him suddenly see the light.
Vitality Water, as the name implies, is water filled with vitality.
Although it doesn’t have much effect on Martial Artists with very high realms, an arm has nothing to do with realm—in plain terms, it’s still part of the fleshly shell—so this Vitality Water naturally works.
Liu Zixuan didn’t know in what way Zhao Yi’s arm would recover, whether a new one would grow out, or whether they would have to rely on something external to reattach it, but at this moment he knew that the problem of Zhao Yi’s arm had finally found a clue toward a solution!
Zhao Yi, still confused, asked, "Then will a new one grow out?"
"From a medical standpoint that’s a bit mystical. I’ll go back and discuss it with Ripple; her Ghost Doctor Skill should be more adept in this area. But what I can confirm is that the problem with your arm will be resolved very soon. At least the meridians there have already revived. Whether it’s a new arm or a grafted one, this arm will become one of your trump cards!"
Sometimes divine beings are too mysterious to be believed, but fate is something you can’t help but believe in.
Having this opportunity is Zhao Yi’s fate. Vitality Water wouldn’t merge into his body for no reason, just like the Nameless Sword wouldn’t acknowledge Liu Zixuan as its master for no reason back then—it’s the same principle.
There is arrangement in the unseen; who can explain this kind of thing clearly!
"Let’s go." Seeing that Zhao Yi didn’t continue to ask, Liu Zixuan spoke.
After speaking he planned to head down first, but after taking a few steps, there was no movement behind him at all.
He turned his head and saw that Zhao Yi had actually closed his eyes and sat cross-legged on the ground by himself! The Celestial Spirit Saber unsheathed on its own and hovered above his head, and faintly, a vast Sword Gang’s Intent spread out from his body.
This subtle aura was all too familiar to him; it was clearly the rhythm of a breakthrough!
The corner of his mouth twitched a few times. "Looks like your opportunity isn’t just about your arm!"
Muttering as he spoke, Liu Zixuan also found a spot to sit down, lit a cigarette, and began to quietly think.
He was thinking about what medium it was that gave Zhao Yi the chance to break through!
Seven-Star Tomb?
No!
The patterns in King Xiao’s tomb?
No!
After going through everything, Liu Zixuan’s eyes suddenly lit up. "Still the Vitality Water!"
Water is one of the Five Elements. The requirement for the First Heaven of the Innate Emperor Realm is to comprehend the power of one of the Five Elements. When the Vitality Water merged into his body to help treat his arm wound, it definitely entered his meridians!
So, he comprehended the Power of Water among the Five Elements!
Thinking of this, Liu Zixuan was quite happy. Bringing Zhao Yi along this trip had really been the right call. He himself had entered the Seven-Star Tomb again; although he still didn’t know what treasure was inside that box, for him it was definitely helpful.
Zhao Yi, under such an opportunity, had obtained a chance to break through to the Innate Emperor Realm, which was equivalent to greatly increasing their side’s overall strength.
Now, they just had to go back and see what opportunities Jiang Yunxuan and Huzi had gained. If they really had that sort of fortuitous encounter, their entire strength would likely be elevated this time.
And by then, it would be the time to completely tear their face with the Celestial Dao Alliance!
Just as he was daydreaming, Zhao Yi had already opened his eyes!
In that sudden instant, it seemed like what was in his eye sockets weren’t pupils, but two upright blades—crystal-clear translucent Ice Blades! But what was even stranger was that beside those crystal-clear Ice Blades, faint blue flames were flickering!
In the blink of an eye, they returned to the appearance of normal pupils, and Zhao Yi also regained clarity.
"I... I broke through? What a mysterious feeling!" Zhao Yi stood up and muttered.
"What do you feel?" Liu Zixuan walked over with a smile and asked.
"Hard to say. I feel like my perception is stronger, and I also feel that the white snow on this mountain is incomparably close to me!" Zhao Yi grinned.
"You’ve comprehended the Power of the Five Elements Water. Anything related to water will naturally feel close to you." Liu Zixuan laughed.
"I have a very direct feeling that even if I face Venerable Ghost Nether now, I have the confidence to fight him." Zhao Yi gripped the Celestial Spirit Saber and said.
Liu Zixuan thought for a moment. "Slash at me with all your strength!"
"Huh?" Zhao Yi froze for a second!
"Let me see your strength!"
"This... isn’t good, what if I end up hurting you." Zhao Yi said this with his mouth, but the battle intent in his eyes was already burning hot.
"Stop being so coy. If you really do hurt me, that’s a good thing. At least I won’t have to carry all the weight alone in the future!" Liu Zixuan directly drew the Nameless Sword and retreated three steps backward.
Zhao Yi didn’t dither either. His right foot stomped, and in an instant a fiercely domineering Sword Gang’s Intent exploded from his whole body. The Celestial Spirit Saber then swung up and hacked straight toward Liu Zixuan.
Liu Zixuan knew that since Zhao Yi was also at the First Heaven of the Innate Emperor Realm, this strike must not be taken lightly, so he directly brought out eighty percent of his strength to block it!
The Nameless Sword swept horizontally with a clear sword cry, meeting the Celestial Spirit Saber head-on.
Clang!
A massive ripple of colliding saber intent and Sword Intent spread out, making the surrounding white snow surge and churn as if swept by a gale.
Liu Zixuan’s arm went numb and he retreated a step. "Not bad!"
"Hehe, can I beat you now?" Zhao Yi asked excitedly.
Liu Zixuan pressed his lips together, put away the Nameless Sword, and picked up that box again. "Still a bit short!"
The originally excited Zhao Yi immediately wilted, catching up to Liu Zixuan’s pace. "Come on, can’t you at least comfort me a little!"
"Damn it, if I let you surpass me, wouldn’t I lose all face!" Liu Zixuan cursed irritably.
Zhao Yi shot Liu Zixuan a look of disdain. "I knew you’d say that! Secretly telling you, I only used ninety percent of my strength just now!"
The corner of Liu Zixuan’s mouth twitched, but he didn’t say the next words. If he told Zhao Yi that he’d used eighty percent of his strength to block, it would definitely deal a blow to Zhao Yi.
Of course, he also had to admit that without using his trump cards, Zhao Yi was already close to catching up with Liu Zixuan’s pace.
The two of them had just come down from the mountain when Xiao Hu was already waiting on the desolate road.
Liu Zixuan and Zhao Yi exchanged a glance and both asked in confusion, "Where did you come from? We didn’t see you on the mountain!"
"There’s an abandoned tunnel that leads straight here. I’ve been waiting for half an hour." Xiao Hu said.
"..." Several black lines instantly appeared on Liu Zixuan’s and Zhao Yi’s foreheads. "Why didn’t you say so earlier!"
"You didn’t ask." Xiao Hu spread his hands, then looked at Zhao Yi with a doubtful sound. "Eh, you seem to have gotten stronger!"
"I can’t wait to fight you again!" Zhao Yi’s mouth curled up as he looked straight at Xiao Hu!
