Chapter 35

Boom!

As soon as the Spirit Jade Fruit entered his mouth, it instantly dissolved, releasing a rich and sweet aroma in Mu Chen's mouth. Immediately after, a warm and pure surge of spiritual energy, like a stream of water, poured into Mu Chen's body.

The strength of that spiritual energy caused Mu Chen's body to tremble slightly, his lips tightly pressed together.

Mu Chen did not hesitate for a moment. His ten fingers came together, rapidly forming intricate seals that dazzled the eye. As he changed the seals, a dense and dark spiritual energy began to gather in his palms.

During this period, Mu Chen had been continuously attempting to condense the second Senluo Death Seal. Although he had been failing, it had made him increasingly proficient in the process.

The dark spiritual energy, glowing with a black light, almost completely enveloped Mu Chen's arms. The intensity of this spiritual energy far exceeded what Mu Chen could normally achieve.

Mu Chen's eyes were fixed on the rapidly condensing spiritual energy in his palms. At the center of the black light, a vortex seemed to form, continuously absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.

His mind was entirely focused on this, not daring to be the slightest bit distracted. Normally, when he condensed the seals, he used the spiritual energy he could control. Even if he failed, it wouldn't cause much harm. However, this time was different. The spiritual energy from the Spirit Jade Fruit had made the spiritual energy in Mu Chen's body extremely powerful. If he failed and the spiritual energy backlashed, it could cause significant trouble for Mu Chen.

Buzz.

Under Mu Chen's full concentration, the black light condensed even faster. Gradually, it began to form the shape of a black light seal.

"Go in!"

Mu Chen suddenly shouted, forcefully driving all the spiritual energy in his body into the black light. The black light seal extended more rapidly, and after about a minute, the black light quietly contracted, leaving a black light seal floating above Mu Chen's left palm.

He had finally condensed the second Senluo Death Seal!

Mu Chen stared at the Senluo Death Seal floating above his palm, but he did not relax. His expression became even more serious because he knew that condensing the Senluo Death Seal was just the first step to success...

Next, he had to incorporate the second Senluo Death Seal into his body. However, once the Senluo Death Seal entered his body, it would unleash an extremely terrifying backlash. A single misstep could even destroy his internal meridians.

Mu Chen had suffered greatly from the backlash when he condensed the first Senluo Death Seal. He understood that the backlash would become even more terrifying with each additional Senluo Death Seal. Even Master Mo, with his formidable Divine Soul Realm strength, had failed to condense the third Senluo Death Seal. While the backlash would increase with the practitioner's strength, it also showed how powerful the backlash could be.

Sigh.

Mu Chen took a deep breath. In his dantian, spiritual energy began to surge, forming a protective layer around his meridians to prepare for the impending fierce impact.

With his body prepared, Mu Chen no longer hesitated. With a mental command, the second Senluo Death Seal lightly imprinted itself on his left palm.

Bang!

The moment it made contact, Mu Chen's body suddenly jolted. His face changed dramatically as an extremely violent impact, like a raging flood, surged into his left palm's meridians!

This impact was filled with destructive force, instantly shattering the spiritual energy barriers he had set up. His meridians, unable to withstand the impact, began to twist, causing intense pain to spread.

Cold sweat immediately broke out on Mu Chen's forehead, but he dared not be distracted. He quickly mobilized more spiritual energy to reinforce the barriers.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Mu Chen's body became a battlefield. The backlash from the Senluo Death Seal shattered all the defenses, wreaking havoc. The intense pain made his body twitch.

"Damn it!"

The pain distorted Mu Chen's face. He gritted his teeth, cursing under his breath, and struggled to hold on. If he couldn't endure this, all his previous efforts would be in vain, and he would suffer severe internal injuries.

The pain from the twisted meridians spread, drenching Mu Chen in cold sweat. The pain even made his mind feel dizzy.

At this moment, he truly understood how difficult it was to condense the second Senluo Death Seal.

The backlash had already broken through the outer meridians and was heading straight for his dantian. This made Mu Chen's heart chill. Injured meridians could be repaired, but if his dantian was damaged, it would be truly unbearable.

"Stop!"

Thinking of the consequences, even Mu Chen, who was usually calm, burst out with an angry roar in his mind.

Buzz!

As his roar echoed in his body, Mu Chen suddenly saw bright light points appearing throughout his body, covering his limbs and bones, looking extremely peculiar.

As the light points appeared, Mu Chen felt a force surge from deep within his body, colliding heavily with the rampaging backlash.

Boom!

The explosion inside his body made Mu Chen's ears ring. After a while, he recovered and immediately sensed his body. He was stunned.

He discovered that the rampaging backlash had been blocked!

"How is this possible..." Mu Chen muttered, bewildered. He looked at the light points in his body, which gradually dimmed and finally disappeared. Were these really spirit meridians? Why couldn't he control or even sense them?

After much thought, Mu Chen couldn't find an answer and could only laugh bitterly. It seemed his body held some secrets even he didn't know.

Suppressing these thoughts, Mu Chen activated the Great Pagoda Technique, drawing the spiritual energy from his limbs and bones into his dantian. However, when this spiritual energy entered his dantian, he felt it become restless, creating a peculiar vibration in his heart.

Feeling this vibration, Mu Chen was initially stunned, then a surge of joy welled up in his heart.

This... is the sign of a spiritual energy breakthrough!

Mu Chen opened his eyes with joy, immediately taking another Spirit Jade Fruit from his pocket and swallowing it. He then activated the Great Pagoda Technique, refining the cool spiritual energy into dark spiritual energy, which continuously flowed into his dantian.

The two streams of spiritual energy quickly merged, and a joyful sound echoed in Mu Chen's dantian. In this joyful sound, Mu Chen could clearly feel his spiritual energy rapidly becoming more powerful!

This growth continued for a while before gradually slowing down. The dark spiritual energy in Mu Chen's dantian, which resembled a cluster of stars, had doubled in size!

In the tent, Mu Chen opened his eyes, his lean and handsome face filled with joy. He extended his hands, and on each palm, a black seal faintly appeared.

He had finally cultivated the two Senluo Death Seals!

Mu Chen smiled, slowly clenching his fists. Not only had he condensed the second Senluo Death Seal, but he had also used this opportunity to break through to the late-stage Spirit Movement Realm!

Feeling the more powerful spiritual energy in his body, Mu Chen couldn't help but laugh with joy.

The gains tonight were far beyond his expectations.

As Mu Chen rejoiced over his breakthrough, in another tent in the camp, Master Mo suddenly opened his eyes, looking at Mu Chen's tent with surprise, then smiled.

This young man is truly remarkable.
