CHAPTER 55: Time Is Short, Just About Eighteen Thousand Years
At the same time, a strange power continuously emanated from the tip of the sword, nourishing Chu Yang's meridians. The strength of the Golden Blood Ginseng, which had been quietly maintaining the inner walls of his veins, suddenly awakened at this moment, slowly merging completely into Chu Yang's meridians...
After circulating for a week, a force suddenly erupted from the sword tip, filling Chu Yang's meridians with an extreme sense of comfort and swelling!
Outside his body, his clothes fluttered, and a difficult-to-see black mist sprayed from his mouth and nose. Chu Yang instantly felt a wave of relief!
Old Gao stood opposite him, staring dumbfounded!
What am I seeing?
God, help me. I'm sick! My eyes can't take it anymore...
This kid, just sitting down and entering meditation, is one thing, but in less than a breath, his injuries healed? And then, after not even the time it takes to drink a cup of hot tea, he... broke through?
Is this even possible?
This bizarre phenomenon left the renowned member of the Blazing Fire Blade Sect completely bewildered...
Chu Yang slowly opened his eyes, and a sharp shadow of a sword flashed in his gaze, returning to normal.
However, just as he opened his eyes, the big man who had been watching him and Old Gao both felt a sting in their eyes, as if a red-hot steel needle had stabbed into their sight.
Both of them were the kind of people who acted recklessly, but in that instant, a sense of fear unexpectedly rose from their hearts towards the young man before them!
It felt as if an ancient demon had suddenly broken free from its seal, bringing destruction and ferocity to this world!
A breakthrough again, to warrior level four!
If Old Gao knew that this guy had only just broken through to martial apprentice level five days ago, reaching warrior level 1, he might truly have his yellowing eyes bulging out in disbelief, and perhaps even suffer a heart attack while foaming at the mouth...
"This can also be considered a breakthrough. I really... Damn!" Even so, Old Gao stared wide-eyed, trembling his hands in confusion. His gaze towards Chu Yang was filled with jealousy.
People really can drive you crazy.
Every time I break through, it feels like I'm struggling for days as if I'm being skinned alive. This guy seems to enjoy the process of breaking through...
"How does it feel?" Old Gao asked, his heart racing.
"I just broke through to level one," Chu Yang smacked his lips and frowned, "Why is it so slow? This doesn’t feel right."
Old Gao staggered, trembling twice before asking, "When was your last breakthrough?" He thought, could it be that this guy had been stuck at this bottleneck for several years? If so, that might explain things.
Chu Yang scratched his head, rolled his eyes, and uncertainly said, "It should be four days ago? Or maybe five days? That seems like too long to me, something feels off..."
Old Gao rolled his eyes, trembling his lips, and pointed a bony finger at him, suddenly sitting down on the ground, his wrinkled old face turning red as all the blood surged to his head in that instant.
After a long while, he finally stood up, dizzy and dreamlike, his face grey as he turned to leave, walking somewhat unsteadily.
Chu Yang asked in surprise, "Old Gao, what's wrong with you?"
Old Gao moved his legs like he was in a dream, murmuring, "I need to go sleep, I haven't slept in days, I'm seeing things..." and staggered off.
The masked big man shook his head in amazement and sighed, "Back when I was in Iron Cloud City, I saw a few pretty boys posing in restaurants while pretending not to care about money. I thought they were just too full of themselves. But only today did I realize what true pretentiousness looks like! With such skills, they should be the ancestors of those little brats!"
Chu Yang was at a loss for words.
I was just speaking the truth, okay? I remember in my previous life, it wasn't just about leveling up once. I often skyrocketed several levels in one go like a rocket. However... the sensations and insights during those upgrades were completely different.
