Chapter 55: Earth Baleful Energy Gathering Life Vital Spirit Conversion Array

"Are you ready?"

Only after confirming that the entire array was flawless did Li Boyang look up at Li Jingshu, who was at the very center of the array.

Nodding quite obediently, Li Jingshu had always been very sensible when it came to important matters.

"Mm, from now on, feel the flow of vital energy within your body, then guide all of that vital energy into your dantian."

After giving these simple instructions, Li Boyang officially activated the array.

Whoosh!

In an instant, an invisible storm roared in the ears of the three of them.

From Xi Luo’s perspective, she could perceive the frantic surging of the earth vein baleful energy on Flying Peak.

Once that earth vein baleful energy poured into the array.

It immediately began to flow along the lines of the array, ultimately converging on Li Jingshu at the very center.

During this process, the earth vein baleful energy was converted into a much gentler vital energy at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The last time Xi Luo had seen such gentle earth vital energy was when she followed the Huaijiang Witch to meet that "Undying Spring God."

In fact, as a major branch of heaven and earth vital energy, earth vital energy was not limited to just earth vein baleful energy.

It was simply because no one had ever combed through the earth veins in this era.

The gods birthed from them were mostly fierce gods born of earth vein baleful energy.

Looking back on Xi Luo’s long life, that powerful Undying Spring God was the only deity capable of making the power of the earth veins gentle.

It is no exaggeration to say that a significant portion of the reason the Hundred Earth Mountains could have such vibrant life today was thanks to the existence of that Spring God.

From this, one could also see the impact this array had on Xi Luo.

To convert violent earth vein baleful energy into gentler earth vital energy, and even allow it to act directly upon a human.

At any other time or in any other setting, Xi Luo would have refuted such a whimsical notion without hesitation.

In fact, as the greatest beneficiary of the entire event, Li Jingshu felt it far more profoundly than Xi Luo saw it.

"Hoo!"

Following Li Boyang’s guidance, Li Jingshu struggled to adjust her breathing rhythm, letting her mind sink into a state as still as an ancient well.

This was what Li Boyang called a special perspective meant to replace the Heavenly Eye supernatural ability—Internal Vision.

In this state of Internal Vision, Li Jingshu’s five senses completely vanished, replaced by a more mysterious sixth sense.

Although every time Li Boyang spoke of "Internal Vision," his tone was always mixed with undisguised regret.

Yet Li Jingshu never felt that Internal Vision was a second-best choice.

"Hoo!"

Under this special perception and perspective.

Li Jingshu seemed to have completely mastered the rhythm of her body, able to see clearly the operation of her internal organs, viscera, meridians, and acupoints.

A strand of life vital energy, not particularly strong compared to Li Boyang’s or Xi Luo’s, was currently flowing quietly through her meridians and acupoints.

Li Jingshu knew that the ultimate goal of this life vital energy was to converge into her dantian.

However, if she wished, she could also let this life vital energy circulate through every cell in her body, briefly strengthening her physical constitution and athletic ability.

"Don't lose focus, pay attention to perceiving the outside!"

Just at this moment, Li Boyang’s voice suddenly rang in Li Jingshu’s ears.

Startled, Li Jingshu almost exited the state of Internal Vision.

Fortunately, her training from the morning took effect; even with her mind fluctuating, she still maintained the perspective of Internal Vision.

Subsequently, Li Jingshu tentatively attempted to expand this perspective outside of her body.

Hum!

In this instant, Li Jingshu suddenly "saw" that earth vital energy which had been converted to be gentler.

That heaven and earth vital energy, which she could never perceive no matter what in the past, was now crazily trying to pour into her body like a tide.

Following her instinct, Li Jingshu released her restrictions on that earth vital energy.

Whoosh!

It was as if seawater were pouring backward into a river.

In a short time, Li Jingshu’s body gathered an amount of vital energy far exceeding her control limit.

If not for the fact that Li Jingshu’s physique had already become superhuman through three years of training, and her meridians and acupoints had become incomparably clear.

The influx of vital energy at this very moment would have been enough to cause her irreparable damage.

"Calm your heart and spirit, gather the energy in the dantian!"

In the blink of an eye, a stern shout rang in Li Jingshu’s ears once more.

Hearing this, not daring to be distracted in the slightest, Li Jingshu immediately followed her usual habits and guided that overflowing vital energy into her dantian.

To be honest, this was a very strange feeling for Li Jingshu.

Her dantian, which she could never fill no matter what on ordinary days, actually produced a feeling of being about to be stretched open at this moment.

At the same time, a portion of the vital energy surging through her meridians and acupoints automatically overflowed, gently nourishing Li Jingshu’s flesh.

Most importantly, this earth vital energy was not as overbearing as earth vein baleful energy.

Under the effect of the external array, after the earth vital energy circulated through Li Jingshu’s body once, it automatically converted into life vital energy that fit her own being.

Although, objectively speaking, this would cause Li Jingshu to lose the possibility of awakening a natural supernatural ability.

But in exchange, Li Jingshu’s body would not undergo the kind of alienation seen in Li Boyang.

………………………………………………………………………………………………

At the same time, in the small courtyard outside.

"You actually really did it..."

Staring dumbfounded at Li Jingshu, who was naturally hovering, Xi Luo opened her mouth wide in shock.

Li Jingshu was not born divine, so naturally, she did not have the attribute of being favored by heaven and earth vital energy.

Yet now, under the backflow of massive vital energy, she was personally experiencing what it felt like to be favored by vital energy.

You don't need to do anything extra; heaven and earth vital energy will spontaneously pour into your body.

"Other than not having a supernatural ability, is there any difference between this girl and us now?"

"And I always feel like you did some unnecessary things, right?"

Turning her head to look at Li Boyang to the side, Xi Luo’s gaze at this moment was not one of questioning, but of confusion.

Xi Luo did not doubt that as long as Li Boyang had the thought, he could have completely skipped converting that earth vein baleful energy and let it pour directly into Li Jingshu’s body.

At that time, even if Li Jingshu had awakened a corresponding natural supernatural ability, Xi Luo would not have felt anything strange about it.

"What I did was not anything unnecessary..."

"The big girl is different from us after all; she is just an ordinary mortal."

"Rather than risking death to awaken some messy supernatural ability, this current state is what is most suitable for her."

Pausing for a moment, Li Boyang added calmly.

"If she really wants to learn some supernatural spells..."

"I can just teach her myself after I’ve finished researching them."

Listening to the confidence in Li Boyang’s tone, Xi Luo fell into silence once again.

"What do you plan to call this current spell formation?"

Tilting his head slightly, Li Boyang pondered very seriously for a moment before the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

"This can no longer be considered a spell formation; this is an array."

"I plan to call this array the 'Earth Baleful Energy Gathering Life Vital Spirit Conversion Array'!"
