Chapter 546 - A Seal?!

Ling Chuxi was both surprised and delighted. In the past she could also check on her own meridians, but she had never been able to concentrate her focus and see into her own body in such detail this clearly. It was as if her mind was independent from her body and she was examining herself from a different angle as though this was an out-of-body experience.

Although both her eyes were shut, Ling Chuxi seemed to be able to see the surface of the lake rippling in the distance. She could see the fishes in the water swimming about and moving their tails, spitting out streams of bubbles in the water, she could even see the seaweed moving with the currents like soft strands of hair in the water.

Ling Chuxi refocused her mind and investigated her Qi Ocean. Her Qi Ocean was vast and obscure, like a boundless sea enveloped in thick mist. Very quickly, Ling Chuxi noticed an oddity. In the depths of her Qi Ocean that resembled a sea without a horizon, there lay hidden an endless, infinite extremely cold and gloomy qi. It was filled with a destructive aura that even she herself felt terror at.

However, the area outside this extremely cold and gloomy qi was filled with prohibitions that suppressed this surge of cold qi forcefully. A seal. There was actually such a seal within her own body? What was going on? Could she try to lift the seal? Ling Chuxi thought about it and thus took action.

Ling Chuxi used the cultivation method of the Golden Pill Sect to circulate her Battle Qi. The Dazzling Heart Stone on her wrist once again emitted an odd light. Ling Chuxi could clearly feel that under the shining ray of that light, the obscure mist in her Qi Ocean became much fainter and the seal that was suppressing the extremely cold and gloomy qi became clearer for her to see.

With a thought, Ling Chuxi used the Mind Training Chant to direct the illusory light of the Dazzling Heart Stone towards the seal. The Dazzling Heart Stone’s light suddenly brightened and like a colorful arrow, it shot towards the seal. Signs of the seal breaking apart were seen soon after.

“Success.” Ling Chuxi was extremely happy for making her own thoughts come true. A genius is a genius after all. Besides her, who else would have thought of such a wondrous use for the Mind Training Chant?

Suddenly, a surge of cold intent that felt like a ten-thousand-year frost flowed out from her Qi Ocean, surging into Ling Chuxi’s limbs, bones and body.

Ling Chuxi had yet to sober up from her delight when her whole body trembled vigorously. In that split moment, every single path of her meridians, every single bone, every single corner of her body seemed to have been sealed up by this freezing surge of cold intent.

Everything before her eyes became more and more blurry and her mind also became blurry.

This situation was actually ten thousand times more dangerous than the time she was promoted to the realm of Great Fulfilment.

Ling Chuxi forced herself to concentrate and guard her mind, circulating her Battle Qi to protect her heart. But under the sealing effect of this extremely chilling cold intent, even urging on her Battle Qi was extraordinarily difficult.

No need to mention being delighted, at this moment, Ling Chuxi regretted her decision to the point that she wished to cry. Knowing full well that this extremely cold and gloomy Battle Qi was very powerful, yet she had acted upon her curious desire to lift the seal containing it. Was it not practically seeking death?

Without a choice, Ling Chuxi could only circulate her Battle Qi with great difficulty to protect her heart, hoping that it would be like the last time when she broke through and was promoted, slowly integrating this surge of extremely cold and gloomy qi together with her Battle Qi. However, compared to the last time, this surge of extremely cold and gloomy qi that was hidden in her Qi Ocean was strong and abundant. If she were really to wait till they integrated, it was fearful that she herself would have be frozen into a popsicle by then.

Right at this moment, a grand and vast qi flowed into her meridians from her arm and as it passed through her body, the extremely cold and gloomy qi was forcefully expelled out of her body. Ling Chuxi’s mind returned and slowly regained its consciousness.

Opening her eyes, she saw Mo Kongyuan’s entire body shivering and his lips were greenish purple. There was even a vague layer of ice crystals resting on his eyebrows. Only then did Ling Chuxi understand that it was Mo Kongyuan who had used his own Qi of True Essence to help her get rid of the extremely cold and gloomy qi in her body just now!
