Chapter 230 Ch 230: Use Of Purple Crystal
"Puff!"
Finally, unable to hold on, Ye Xiao coughed out a mouthful of blood as a strand of berserk Chaos Energy finally invaded his body and started ravaging inside, causing Ye Xiao to suffer intense pain and injuries.
Not being able to think of a solution, Ye Xiao turned to the Lotus of Chaos and asked for its help.
The Lotus of Chaos did not disappoint him. It immediately gave Ye Xiao an answer, "Try to harmonize and resonate with the berserk Chaos Energy around him. Circulate the Chaos Energy inside your body with the help of Absolute Darkness Emperor Sutra and try to form a flow with a similar rhythm as the berserk Chaos Energy. As long as you could resonate with the berserk Chaos Energy outside, you could get out of this situation."
The Lotus of Chaos explained in great detail as what Ye Xiao needs to do in his current situation.
He needed to find a way to harmonize with the chaotic energy, to navigate its ebbs and flows. He needs to concentrate and attempt to attune his own energy to the chaotic surges around him and the ravaging strand of berserk energy inside his body. It was a challenging feat that demanded the utmost focus.
However, in Ye Xiao\'s current state, focusing was the only thing he could not do.
And this resulted in the chaotic energy\'s relentless assaults inside him which took a toll on Ye Xiao\'s body.
"Urghh..."
"Puff!"
Ye Xiao groaned in pain, his body twitched uncontrollably. He coughed blood, and his physical strain and internal injuries were evident.
"I. NEED. TO. FOCUS."
Ye Xiao spoke word by word while greeting his teeth. But the pain was overwhelming and the stream of berserk Chaos Energy inside his body was destructive. It was destroying from the inside, and Ye Xiao could not deal with it.
This resulted in him being unable to defend and a wave of berserk Chaos Energy invaded his body again.
"Ahhhhhhh..."
Ye Xiao screamed in pain. The pain was too much. He could feel every cell inside his body being destroyed.
As the chaos energy threatened to overwhelm him, Ye Xiao felt his strength waning further. The internal injuries grew more pronounced, and his vision blurred momentarily.
"Life Recovery!"
Ye Xiao used Life Recovery many times which relieved him from the pain for a few seconds before the pain attacked him again. He had no idea what to do and how to focus, but then, he suddenly thought of the Golden Seed floating in the center of his Chaos Divine Sea.
The Golden Seed was like a source, constantly discharging ocean-like comprehensive energy that had already filled his entire Chaos Divine Sea. It is just that Ye Xiao never dared to look inside the Chaos Divine Sea or use those Comprehensive Energy because it might make him sleep forever. He could not forget that feeling he had experienced twice.
Fortunately, the Chaos Divine Sea was like a world of its own, and nothing could escape this world as long as he doesn\'t wish. This is what imprisoned those comprehensive energies, otherwise, he might have become a supreme treasure in those powerful people\'s eyes living in the vast Chaos, standing above all, and ruling their respective regions and Lands. At that time, they would have used him as equipment for their own purpose.
And because he lacks strength, he could not defy those people.
Knowing the horrifying effect of the Golden Seed, Ye Xiao immediately rejected the idea of using the Comprehensive Energy of this seed to focus. But the reminder of the Golden Seed also reminded him of the two treasures he had obtained in the cave where he saw the Golden Seed for the first time.
Those two treasures were Comprehensive Herbs and Purple Crystal.
Ye Xiao had already given all the Comprehensive Herbs to his grandfather, but he was left with nothing. But he still had thousands of Purple Crystals in his possession.
"Woosh!"
With a wave of his hand, he immediately took out a Purple Crystal. This crystal also had dense comprehensive energy and could help Ye Xiao focus. He just doesn\'t know what other effect it has.
But now was not the time to think or experiment. He endured the stormy pain that was breaking his body inside out, sat crossed-legged after struggling with great effort, and hold the Purple Crystal in his hand. Then he closed his eyes and tried to circulate the Absolute Darkness Emperor Sutra while relying on the comprehensive nature of the Purple Crystal.
To his astonishment, the moment he did that, the Purple Crystal transformed into a small amount of purple liquid and seeped inside his body.
"Ugh!"
Even though Ye Xiao was experiencing terrible pain, he still could not help but let out a comfortable moan. The next moment, without even realizing it, he completely entered a focused state.
Unknown to him, a purple surge of energy was discharged from his body that formed a blurry pattern around him. And at that moment, the berserk Chaos Energy in the surroundings seemed to have sensed something horrible, it stopped trying to invade Ye Xiao\'s body.
However, this was only for a few seconds. The blurry pattern of energy soon disappeared inside Ye Xiao\'s body, and the berserk Chaos Energy started doing its job.
Suddenly, Ye Xiao felt a burning sensation in his right chest. This sensation was completely different from the pain he was feeling because of the berserk Chaos Energy.
Although this feeling was strange, Ye Xiao soon forgot everything about it, for he was still in a focused state, circulating the Absolute Darkness Emperor Sutra and trying to resonate with the berserk Chaos Energy inside and outside his body.
The attempt to circulate the Chaos Energy within his body at the same rhythm as the berserk energy outside was taking its toll, causing a dangerous discord within him.
Slowly, with sheer willpower and a deep understanding of his own energy, Ye Xiao began to make progress while still in a focused state. He adjusted his internal circulation, matching the rhythm of the chaotic Chaos Energy surrounding him. It was a delicate balance, and he had to tread carefully to avoid further harm.
After what felt like an eternity of struggle, Ye Xiao\'s persistence paid off. But when he made progress, he seemed to feel a strange support that felt both familiar and unfamiliar coming from his right chest. It was this support that helped him manage to align his energy with the chaotic surges inside and outside him, riding their currents instead of fighting against them. With a burst of effort, he propelled himself out of the chaotic maelstrom.
Breathing heavily, Ye Xiao opened his eyes and gasped for deep breaths. His purpose was completed and the focused state was broken. Immediately after his focused state was broken, he seemed to have been completely drained of every bit of energy, he was exhausted to the extreme. Laying flat on the ground, Ye Xiao closed his eyes and fell asleep.
He did not even notice the torrent of berserk Chaos Energy that was troubling him a lot earlier seemed very friendly at this moment, and they were slowly being eaten by a red light coming from his right chest.
.....
Outside the closed platform with energy walls that was hiding a vast world inside where Ye Xiao and Han Xiang were trapped, the red-robed man could be seen laying carelessly on the grass, drinking wine from a gourd and enjoying every sip he gulped down.
His eyes were closed, but he suddenly opened his eyes and muttered, "Umm... What is that?"
He looked at the platform and his eyes seemed to pierce through the invisible barrier that were like walls, and landed on Ye Xiao. He could see Ye Xiao sleeping on the ground, his right chest was emanating red light that was eating the berserk Chaos Energy which was trying to harm Ye Xiao.
The red-robed man raised his brows and muttered, "That is an ability very similar to the innate ability of Void Bat King. What is Ling Xiaolong hiding in his right chest?"
There was a deep frown on his face. But he soon shook his head carelessly and muttered, "Eh, what am I even thinking? How could someone who is recognized by the Myriad Plane Dimensions be simple? That light must be an opportunity he obtained in the past."
Then he seemed to have thought of something and spoke, "Ling Xiaolong, everything inside your experience has nothing to do with me. That world was created by my master. Because you were recognized by my master\'s creation and have deeply impressed me, I let you skip two tests and sent you to the final test. I have no control over this test. You should be very careful, for every action of yours might affect the final result."
