Chapter 21

In the dark and damp cave, at this moment, Wang Chen sat cross-legged by the cold pond, surrounded by a faint layer of white mist that slowly swirled, like a dream.

As the young man breathed in and out, the wisps of white mist flowed into his body through his nose and mouth, merging into his meridians.

Inside his body, the residual medicinal power, stimulated by the external cold, was thoroughly activated. Gradually, a faint warmth began to burn.

The true essence continuously condensed, and a hint of gravity appeared between the young man's brows.

The frequency of his breathing quickened, changing from a long and short pattern to a rapid three long and two short pattern. As his breathing accelerated, the surrounding white mist gradually became denser, enveloping Wang Chen entirely.

A cold wind gradually rose within the cave, and a large amount of true essence gathered toward Wang Chen, the cold air merging with the true essence, creating a scene like a fairyland on earth.

Amidst this, Wang Chen was filled with tension, carefully controlling the true essence within his body, repeatedly washing and circulating through his meridians!

Each cell, under the irrigation of true essence and the stimulation of medicinal power, began to accelerate its decomposition and fusion, continuously growing stronger.

Finally, when it reached a critical point, the world within his body erupted.

Under Wang Chen's control, the true essence in his meridians surged toward the twelve main meridians in one go.

Starting from the three yin meridians of the hand, it flowed through the three yang meridians of the hand, reaching the three yin and three yang meridians of the foot, gradually forming a cycle that continuously accelerated and expanded.

The repeated washing brought a piercing pain that made Wang Chen sweat profusely. As it circulated, these meridians were continuously filled and expanded, with a large amount of true essence merging into them, reinforcing and expanding the channels, and strengthening their resilience.

The true essence rapidly consumed and replenished, continuously cycling!

Finally, after controlling the true essence to circulate for thirty-six cycles, everything suddenly stopped.

A flash of white light appeared in his mind, his aura soared, and the true essence gradually calmed down, losing its previous violent nature, and began to circulate autonomously within the meridians. The twelve main meridians were finally successfully expanded, and the consumed true essence was rapidly replenished.

In an instant, it reached saturation and stopped.

At this moment, Wang Chen felt the fierce aura within his body, the sense of fulfillment. A surge of excitement arose.

Reaching the sixth stage of Body Tempering, he finally broke through to the sixth stage today.

He exhaled a long breath of turbid air, which seemed substantial and dissipated into the air like a sword beam.

Opening his eyes, a flash of sharp light passed, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile.

"Shatter the stone!" With a light shout, Wang Chen suddenly exerted force, transforming into a streak of light and shooting forward! At the same time, his true essence was once again mobilized, bursting forth.

Boom...

A massive explosion echoed within the cave, lingering for a long time.

Shattered stones flew, raising a cloud of dust. With one punch, he directly split a boulder as large as his body into four pieces.

"Sixth stage of Body Tempering, indeed, it's extraordinary!" Although his fist still felt a slight numbness, it was much better than half a month ago.

He remembered that time when he attacked a similar boulder, only managing to crack it, and he suffered a great deal. Now, after breaking through, his true essence was stronger, and his body's strength had improved significantly.

With one punch, he directly split the boulder into four pieces, and the pain he felt was much less. Thinking of this, Wang Chen felt a bit excited.

A strength of 1,800 pounds, comparable to the strength of a seventh-stage Body Tempering warrior, an improvement of 500 pounds from before, another significant leap. If other factors were ignored, Wang Chen could already match a seventh-stage warrior and contend with their strength.

"Haha, kid, not bad, you have the style of my younger days, haha..." Wang Chen's performance was observed by Ling Zhan, who was satisfied and praised him.

It had been nearly a month since the last clan competition registration, and Wang Chen had been learning the Mountain-Crushing Fist for a month.

During this time, he did not disappoint himself. In half a month, he had already become proficient in the Mountain-Crushing Fist, unleashing considerable power. Now, he had broken through again, reaching the sixth stage of Body Tempering, and the Mountain-Crushing Fist had reached a new level.

Breaking through from the fifth stage to the sixth stage of Body Tempering in a month was somewhat embarrassing, and even Ling Zhan didn't know what to say. Perhaps he had seen too many miracles and surprises in him, and was now gradually numb. He could only shake his head and smile bitterly.

Looking at the entire continent, Wang Chen could definitely be considered an outstanding figure. How many people could advance from the third stage to the sixth stage of Body Tempering in two months? Very few.

"The clan competition starts tomorrow!" His eyes turned toward the direction of the Han family, and Wang Chen said solemnly.

Today, breaking through to the sixth stage of Body Tempering was entirely to prepare for the Han family clan competition starting tomorrow.

As a non-Han family participant, he would undoubtedly face significant challenges! Not to mention the ever-watchful Han Yu, who would not let him off this time. He expected a tough battle.

"Don't worry, with your current strength, getting a good result is not a problem, hehe!" Waving his hand, Ling Zhan said calmly, not at all worried about Wang Chen. With his progress in the Ghost Steps, his proficiency in the Mountain-Crushing Fist, and his monstrous strength, he was already considered an outstanding figure among his peers.

"Definitely!" Clenching his fist, Wang Chen said firmly. All the preparations were for the clan competition starting tomorrow. He had been silent for two years, and now he would declare his return with action. The revival of the Wang family would begin from here!

Donglin Mountain, thinking of this largest sect in the Tianfeng Kingdom, and even in the entire Northern Border, it was well-known. Wang Chen's eyes showed a hint of anticipation. The clan competition tomorrow would surely be lively. Besides Donglin Mountain, what other sects would come? It was exciting to think about.

This time, these sects would not only select people from the Han family but also from the Lin family in Qingfeng City and the outstanding students recommended by Qingfeng Academy at the end of the semester. The task was arduous, and Wang Chen knew that without a stunning performance, he would miss this opportunity!

"Your soul power seems to have recovered quite a bit?" Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, turned his head, and saw Ling Zhan's shadow become more solid, saying in surprise.

During this time, not only was he cultivating, but Ling Zhan was also recovering. Sealed for a thousand years, his soul power was almost depleted. The cold pond, this extremely yin place, was very beneficial for his soul recovery. After a month, there was already a noticeable improvement.

"Of course, who am I? I am Ling Zhan! What do you, a little brat, know!" Saying this, Ling Zhan started to boast, always acting shamelessly, making Wang Chen smile bitterly.
