Chapter 616: The Sound of Chanting
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Xue Wei could feel how his spiritual energy was slowly diminishing, but unlike usual, he knew that he could no longer replenish it as before.
When cultivating any kind of energy, the expert would be trying to progress through various layers of strength, and for each layer, the cultivation base would change.
The cultivation base was the core of their strength. Even if Xue Wei used all of his Qi or his spiritual energy in normal situations, he would merely need to wait or cultivate for the energy to refill his body once more.
However, the strength one could wield would be based on the layer one's strength had reached, so this layer of cultivation was known as the core.
For spiritual energy cultivators, they indeed had a core within their bodies. It was a bit similar to that of spirits, but humans and beasts would never be able to control a spiritual energy as pure as these spirits, and thus their cores would be weaker and smaller.
However, when one cultivated spiritual energy, it was this core that would determine the layer of strength the spiritual energy would reach.
Xue Wei was currently pouring his spiritual energy straight from his own core into Bai Tianyi's body, but he was well aware that it was not only the energy that was leaving his body.
It was also because of this that Luoluo had stressed the fact that he would lose his spiritual energy cultivation if he wished to do the transfer to Bai Tianyi.
The energy within his core was being depleted little by little, and a strange black slime began to force its way outside of Bai Tianyi's body through his pores.
There was not much of this black slime, but it was clear the influence it would have on anyone that got their energy tainted by it, and Xue Wei suddenly understood why Luoluo had compared the corruption of Bai Tianyi with something white splashed by a black dye.
"Keep the flow of your energy steady, and continue until all your spiritual energy runs out on its own. Only then will the core of your spiritual energy be forced out, and the majority of the hidden dangers in Bai Tianyi's body be resolved."
Xue Wei grunted to indicate his understanding, but he did not answer or nod his head since he knew that any movement could affect his pace.
The energy he had gathered for so long was slowly disappearing, and he could feel the strange sensation of his soul cultivation base becoming hollowed out. Even so, although his efforts through many years were slowly ebbing out, he still did not regret his actions; in fact, he felt relieved to see how his actions were making a genuine difference, and how Bai Tianyi's body was slowly becoming better again.
Knowing that he could actually make a difference made him feel accomplished for the first time in a long time.
Throughout his life he had lived in a muddle-headed manner. He had constantly hunted for the truth of his past and tried to fight the invisible chains of fate that had him held down, but only recently did he realize that while he needed answers, answers were not the most important aspect.
To him, his companions that had been by his side for so many years were the ones who truly mattered. Although he longed for answers, he was not willing to trade for the information at the cost of their lives, and the only reason he was fighting for survival now was due to this hidden enemy that seemed to have trapped and planned their every step.
He knew that while he was the core of this group, he was also the one who needed their help and support throughout their journeys. Now that the consequences of him asking Bai Tianyi to absorb the energy of the flower were this severe, he felt grateful for the fact that his energy was able to make a difference in treating the corruption.
This determination was making him even more focused, and while he was eager to heal Bai Tianyi, he was not in a hurry, and kept the pace of his energy steady.
"Keep it flowing!"
As time went by, the energy became less and less, and Xue Wei was struggling to keep the flow even. He felt as if he was trying to squeeze out the final drops of liquid from a sponge, but knew that it would soon be completely empty.
This feeling of being emptied of energy was unlike the usual experience when he was using his Qi to the limits. Even if it was made in a somewhat similar way, he could feel that this was not merely an overexertion but a devastation of his spiritual cultivation base, and the final stretch was the hardest.
Suddenly a chanting sound reverberated in the surroundings, and the tremors brought by the sound caused the entire landscape to react.
The chanting sound was continuous, and the intensity increased as the energy left Xue Wei's body.
Luoluo's eyes were solemn as she observed every change that was taking place. She knew well that what caused the sound was the spiritual energy core that was about to leave Xue Wei's body.
Spiritual energy and Qi were two very different types of energy, and the spiritual energy was connected to the soul. Although it would not injure his soul when it was removed, he would still feel uncomfortable, and his soul would send out warning sounds when it felt this internal danger approaching.
