Chapter 90: Ninety fleeting Mixed Element Qi

"Ptui!"

After Yun Xiao spat out this mouthful of fresh blood, Ling Wan’s breakthrough in the Ling Wan was finally complete. The boy who had just opened his eyes looked somewhat bewildered, seemingly unable to believe everything he was sensing.

"Am I... Is this... Meridian Gathering Realm?!"

The chubby Ling Wan sat stupefied on the bed, clenched his plump fist, and felt the surge of power that had broken through three levels. It was as if he was in a dream, utterly at a loss.

"I mean, you didn’t have to make such a big fuss when breaking into the Meridian Gathering Realm, did you? Now I’ve really brought this upon myself!" While Ling Wan was lost in thought without a clue, a voice low on breath suddenly sounded beside him, pulling back his wandering mind.

"Big Brother Yun Xiao, what’s wrong with you?" Ling Wan leapt up from the bed and rushed over to Yun Xiao. When he sensed the latters’ languid breath, his face couldn’t help but show some worry.

Previously, when Ling Wan’s Mixed Element Qi erupted, it felt like death itself, and then Yun Xiao’s Ren Du Meridian Array took control and breached these two vital meridians for him, so he was completely unaware of the prior events.

However, Ling Wan, though naive, was not a fool. He believed that his miraculous breakthrough from the middle stage of the Meridian Introduction Realm to the Meridian Gathering Realm must be all thanks to Yun Xiao.

Moreover, Yun Xiao’s current severe injury likely had something to do with his own breakthrough, so at this moment, Ling Wan was deeply grateful to Yun Xiao. He secretly swore that for the rest of his life he would treat Yun Xiao as his own dear brother.

"Ling Wan, I ask you, can you now control the Mixed Element Qi inside your body?"

Yun Xiao did not address Ling Wan’s anxious gaze but instead asked expectantly. To be honest, although he had just used the Ren Du Meridian Array to help Ling Wan breach the governor and conception vessels, he was not quite clear on some things.

In fact, Ling Wan indeed broke through three levels to reach the Meridian Gathering Realm, but Yun Xiao wanted more than just this breakthrough – he truly hoped that Ling Wan could control his own Mixed Element Qi.

If Ling Wan really could control such a naturally strong force, then his combat ability would definitely improve by leaps and bounds. At least among cultivators of the same level, none would be his match.

"Mixed Element Qi?"

Prompted by Yun Xiao, Ling Wan was momentarily stunned, and then recalled something Yun Xiao had told him in the Yulin Mountain Range, understanding dawned on him.

"Ling Wan, first sense some special breath within your body, then use your cultivation technique to guide this breath through the already opened governor and conception vessels!" Yun Xiao knew Ling Wan was clueless, so he meticulously instructed him in person, curious about the power of Mixed Element Qi himself.

Ling Wan was indeed puzzled, but with Yun Xiao’s guidance, he started the low-level Mortal Rank cultivation technique, and at the same time, he sensed an unusual energy within him that had never been felt before.

From the moment Ling Wan was born, the Mixed Element Qi existed within him, but each outbreak was never under his control.

In other words, Ling Wan never controlled this force of Mixed Element Qi – it would ravage him every seven days, making the young man’s life miserable.

But today, for the first time, as he was able to smoothly channel the sensation of the unusual energy like an extension of his arm, even with his naive mind, he knew he had gained an immense fortune.

Because Ling Wan could sense the power of this special breath, it was far stronger than the Meridian Qi cultivated by his low-level Mortal Rank cultivation technique – it was a formidable force capable of unleashing attacks much more potent than those of the early stage of the Meridian Gathering Realm.

With Yun Xiao’s guidance, Ling Wan suppressed his excitement. In the next moment, that special energy flowed smoothly from the Baihui point on top of his head, down the Ren Meridian at his chest, to the Huiyin point, then up his back returning to Baihui.

However, both Yun Xiao and Ling Wan overlooked one fact: although Yun Xiao knew this was Mixed Element Qi, his understanding of the Mixed Element One Qi Body was rather limited.

Back when Yun Xiao was Long Xiao Battle God, the practitioner of the Mixed Element One Qi Body had cultivated to a very high realm, and the techniques he practiced were far beyond what Ling Wan’s low-level Mortal Rank technique could compare to.

So, in the next moment, an unanticipated incident occurred that took both of them by surprise. This incident happened right after Ling Wan had circulated the Mixed Element Qi through the governor and conception vessels, and then it suddenly erupted.

Boom!

A surge of that particular powerful energy broke out, and Yun Xiao, who had barely recovered from his injuries, was struck by this force once more. His back slammed against the door, letting out a loud bang.

However, Yun Xiao couldn’t care less about his own injuries because before his eyes, the chubby Ling Wan’s body seemed like an inflating balloon, swelling up again.

In just a short span of time, Ling Wan once again became a giant meatball. But this time, Yun Xiao’s powerful Power of Soul sensed something different.

Hoo...

Whoosh!

Before Yun Xiao could comprehend the intricacies of the situation, the Ling Wan transformed into a meatball bounced up abruptly, and in the next instant, it had burst through the room’s window, shattering it to pieces.

Outside the room, the faces of Tan Yun and the others were still in a state of shock, not having recovered yet, and when they saw the large meatball breaking through the window, they all scurried to dodge in every direction.

The Ling Wan that flew out from the window seemed to be somewhat out of control at this moment, with its ball-like body bouncing several times on the ground, and finally crashing into a stone table in the courtyard, smashing the table to smithereens instantly.

Seeing this, Tan Yun and the others were deeply shocked; even a true Meridian Gathering Realm master would not likely have such stone-splitting strength without using some Meridian Techniques, right?

The few members of this small team couldn’t help but ponder whether they had the defensive power of that stone table; if they were hit by the Ling Wan in its meatball state, would they not be immediately crippled?

In the past, Ling Wan had exploded into the Mixed Element One Qi Body several times in front of Tan Yun and the others, but at those times, Ling Wan was in agony—when had it ever displayed such formidable strength?

Clearly, Ling Wan’s current state was vastly different from before, and this was something that the young geniuses of the Hidden Dragon Continent could not fathom.

Creak!

Just as Tan Yun and the others looked on with shock, avoiding the chaos, someone abruptly pulled open the room’s door from inside, and out walked a shabbily dressed youth with a somewhat withered aura—who else could it be but Yun Xiao?

"Ling Wan, try to control the Mixed Element Qi!"

Walking out of the door, Yun Xiao didn’t have time to concern himself with the actions of Tan Yun and the others; he shouted loudly, and this shout, as if containing some special power, finally allowed Ling Wan to regain some clarity.

Just now, Ling Wan had only unleashed the Mixed Element Qi for the first time and got caught off guard; or perhaps, the transformation into a meatball had left him panicked, unable to react in the moment.

Now, infused with the Power of Soul in Yun Xiao’s voice, which reminded one of the warning drums and morning bells, Ling Wan suddenly realized that he had a sliver of control over the once rampant Qi that had tormented him.

As this will emerged from Ling Wan’s mind, his rudimentary low-level Mortal Rank Cultivation Technique also started operating, and soon after, everyone clearly saw that when the meatball hit a certain spot, it instantly reverted back to Ling Wan’s true body, truly miraculous.

However, Ling Wan, having reverted back to his true form, stumbled, seemingly having exhausted some kind of power, but there was an unmistakable thrill of ecstasy on his face.

The others were all staring at Ling Wan, dumbstruck. Although Ling Wan’s aura was somewhat disordered at the moment, the fluctuations of the Meridian Gathering Realm were unmistakable, solidifying Tan Yun and the others’ previous guesses.

Yesterday, Ling Wan was in such agony under that special state—how had he broken through from the Channel Introduction Realm Middle Stage to the Meridian Gathering Realm in just one day and night?

This speculation was one thing, but seeing it with their own eyes was another matter. Thinking of a possible explanation, their gazes inevitably turned toward the shabbily dressed youth.

At this moment, Yun Xiao, having repeatedly been impacted by Ling Wan’s energy, had an extremely unstable aura and pallid complexion. When their gazes turned his way, he collapsed to the ground.

"Big Brother Yun Xiao!"

Seeing this, Ling Wan instantly understood his own recklessness; having received such great help and guidance from the person who had just sustained serious injuries due to his sudden and thoughtless release of energy was like biting the hand that feeds him.

Although this was not Ling Wan’s intention, the consequences had indeed arisen from his actions, so he rushed forward, eager to help Yun Xiao to his feet, his face full of regret and guilt.

"Alright, I know you didn’t do it on purpose!"

Yun Xiao was astute, seeing through Ling Wan’s feelings with just a glance. After a bitter smile, he continued, "Brother Ling Wan, this Mixed Element Qi is no trivial matter. Until you have mastered it, it’s best not to use it rashly, or there might be unforeseeable consequences!"

Yun Xiao’s words were not without reason. Take the recent situation, for example—Ling Wan couldn’t fully control such powerful force and nearly harmed Tan Yun and the rest.

"Big Brother Yun Xiao is right, I..."

Thud!

Just as Ling Wan was helping Yun Xiao to sit down on a stone bench, about to say something respectful, the courtyard gates were unexpectedly flung open from the outside.

No, not just flung open—as the two doors smashed against the walls on either side with a bursting speed, from the retreating footsteps outside, Yun Xiao and the others found it more plausible to believe that the gates had been kicked open by someone.
