Chapter 895: Chapter 895: The Impact of the Wound_1
Normally, entering the Half-step Martial Sage realm shouldn’t cause too much of a reaction.
However, at present, Ethan Smith’s reaction was incredibly strong!
The entire Mystic Realm seemed to be affected, with hurricanes sweeping through!
Furthermore, intense pain was emanating from Ethan’s dantian!
The qi seemed like it was about to fly out from his golden core, and the extreme abdominal pain contorted Ethan’s body into a shrimp-like state!
“Ah…” Such pain was unbearable even for Ethan for a moment!
...
His body continuously released a wild and chaotic power, almost leveling the surrounding area!
“Ahhh!!!”
Ultimately, Ethan couldn’t help but let out a loud roar!
He was in so much pain that he gritted his teeth, fell to his knees, and clenched his fists tightly.
Such a commotion naturally awakened Emily Taylor, who was in closed-door cultivation.
Upon hearing Ethan’s voice, her face immediately changed. She rushed towards Ethan.
At the same time, Spike Schneider also hurried over.
Both of them, seeing the extremely pained Ethan, had a trace of worry flashing across their faces.
“What… what on earth is going on?” said Spike in shock.
From the looks of it, it didn’t seem like a breakthrough!
“Ethan!” Emily couldn’t bear to see him suffer like this and shouted as she ran towards him.
However, the moment she heard Emily’s voice, Ethan hurriedly raised his head and looked in her direction.
“No good…” Ethan’s face changed.
The chaotic force within him might seriously harm Emily!
Thinking of this, Ethan immediately adjusted the flow of qi within his body and desperately tried to stabilize the wild power.
Sweat poured from Ethan’s brow, but he miraculously managed to control his qi in a short time!
“Wow, is this the power of love?” Spike murmured at the side.
Perhaps due to his concern for Emily, Ethan somehow stabilized his golden core at that critical moment.
The qi gradually recovered, and the golden core slowly took shape.
“Miss Taylor, you should come back. Ethan should be fine now,” Spike called to Emily.
“He’s at a critical moment in his breakthrough, so it’s best not to disturb him.”
Upon hearing Spike’s words, Emily stopped in her tracks.
Although she was extremely worried, she obediently walked away.
Ethan sat cross-legged on the ground, gradually feeling the growth of his strength.
His qi was rapidly soaring, becoming thicker and deeper, while his physical body became virtually indestructible!
This process lasted a full four hours!
Only after four hours did Ethan’s qi finally become peaceful.
“Phew.”
Ethan let out a turbid breath, got up from the ground, and whispered, “That wound… still affects me after all.”
The dangerous scene from earlier lingered in his mind.
If it weren’t for Emily, Ethan would not have been able to control his golden core!
And the only outcome would have been death from his body exploding!
This couldn’t help but make Ethan feel terrified!
If he encountered such a situation during a breakthrough to the Martial Saint realm, he would undoubtedly die!
“Ethan, are you… alright?” Emily hurried over.
Ethan nodded and smiled, saying, “Very good, my strength seems to have increased geometrically.”
Since entering the Military Marquis Realm, every time Ethan broke through, his strength would double, and this time was no exception.
“What… just happened?” Emily’s large eyes were filled with concern.
Ethan spoke solemnly, “It’s still because of the internal injury, if it wasn’t for you just now, I could have possibly died from my body exploding.”
“Body exploding?” Emily’s face paled at the thought.
“Is there… any way to heal that injury?”
Ethan smiled bitterly, “There is a way, but it requires a material that is almost impossible to find.”
“Material? What material?” Emily asked anxiously.
Ethan thought for a moment and said, “I think it’s called Heavenly Vanilla.”
“Heavenly Vanilla…” Emily silently memorized the name.
Ethan waved his hand and said, “There’s no big problem, I’ll figure something out.”
Though he said this, deep down, Ethan was incredibly worried.
The effects of the wound were far more severe than he had estimated.
It was just a breakthrough to Half-step Martial Saint, and the thought of almost dying from body explosion made him shudder. The effect would undoubtedly be more significant when entering the Martial Saint realm.
Breaking through to the Martial Saint realm is an extremely dangerous endeavor, and even the slightest carelessness may lead to death, let alone the burden of this wound.
“It seems… before the breakthrough, I may need to find a way to deal with this injury,” Ethan thought to himself.
Though he was thinking about it, there was no trace of it on his face.
“Wow, you’re about to break into the Grandmaster realm?” Just then, Ethan was surprised to discover that Emily’s strength had surged once again!
Emily considered his comment and said, “It might be because of that experience in the Second Secret Realm that made my breakthrough so fast.”
“Makes sense,” Ethan nodded.
The key to increasing one’s strength is the elevation of their mindset.
As long as one has a high enough mindset, along with abundant qi, the growth of their cultivation base will be unhindered.
That is why many top cultivators choose to undergo self-cultivation when faced with bottlenecks, even risking their lives and refusing to break through until the problem is solved.
Moreover, Emily also possessed the Taylor Family’s bloodline.
Over the next few days, while Emily continued to cultivate, Ethan stayed by her side.
At night.
Ethan looked at Spike and asked, “How long have we been in this Mystic Realm?”
After making a rough calculation, Spike said, “About over three months.”
“Over three months…” Ethan couldn’t help but feel worried.
“I plan to go out and take a look,” Ethan said solemnly.
“Go out? I think you’re out of your mind,” Spike sneered.
“Dying isn’t that big of a problem, but don’t drag Miss Taylor down with you.”
Although Spike’s words were harsh, they made sense.
Ethan sat there, sighing softly, “I always feel that many people will be implicated because of me.”
“This is not a good thing for those in closed-door cultivation,” Spike said.
“Your heart must be clear and free of distractions, how can you move forward with your current state of mind?”
Ethan sighed softly and said, “Yeah…”
Just as the two were chatting, Emily’s qi suddenly began to change.
At the same time, dark clouds gathered in the sky.
“This is… she’s about to enter the Grandmaster realm!” Ethan exclaimed.
What do you think?
