Purple Python Crossing River

The night was deep, and a dazzling stream of light emanated from the depths of the old forest in the back mountain.

Chen Fusheng, full of anticipation, took out the Heart Source Pill. It was a yellow-orange color, peach-shaped, with the pill's Qi overflowing, like smoke swirling around it.

Chen Fusheng put it to his nose and smelled it, detecting a subtle life activity, indicating that the pill was extremely well-preserved.

"The Heart Source Pill is made by fire-attribute Star Masters who draw upon the earth's fire, receive the essence of the great sun, refine spiritual herbs, and concoct the pill over eighty-one days."

Mu Zhen had also given him a related introduction and instructions on how to take it, emphasizing that those with weak constitutions should not use it, otherwise, there was a risk of their hearts exploding.

"The Heart Source Pill can strengthen the heart and promote the growth of my whole body's Life Essence Blood. My current physique can definitely withstand it."

Strictly speaking, Life Essence Blood is equivalent to the lifeline of the physical body, with the same wonders as the Qi Sea.

Chen Fusheng sat cross-legged, opened his mouth, and sucked in the Heart Source Pill, which instantly appeared inside his heart.

As the medicinal power dissolved, his heart quickly became scorching hot, with the pain of raging fire engulfing his soul.

"Furnace Contemplation Method, I am the furnace, the flesh is the heaven and earth, the essence blood is the furnace fire, strengthen the heart and strengthen the essence blood."

Chen Fusheng adopted the Five Hearts Facing Heaven posture, closed his mouth and nose tightly, sealed his pores, and his body became like a furnace.

The furnace was sealed, and the Heart Source Pill burned like fire, a process that was quite painful.

Even his body temperature soared wildly. This was because the source of his heart had changed, and the blood throughout his body was scalding hot, as if magma was about to flow out.

This feeling was more than ten times stronger than the nourishment from the Yellow Orange Fish!

There was also a feeling of foreign objects filling his heart, and the pain soared infinitely. His heart grew larger and trembled violently.

Thump! Thump!

Chen Fusheng's body trembled, and after the heart merged with the Heart Source Pill, the heart seemed like a volcano erupting with Life Essence Blood, running through his limbs and bones, and his skin turned red.

"So hot, so hot!"

Chen Fusheng couldn't wait to tear his flesh apart to release the heatwave. He gritted his teeth and persevered, knowing that once he lost his Qi, the medicinal power would inevitably be lost.

He also suddenly got up, his feet cracking the mud layer, and rushed forward, smashing an ancient tree with a palm, like an Evil Tiger Diagram emerging from its cage, leaping in all directions.

Digesting and absorbing the medicinal power in extreme motion was more like a blood exchange, using the Life Essence Blood created by the heart to circulate through the body, replacing the old with the new.

The newborn energy in his body tempered his muscles and bones, and the large tendons throughout his body bulged like dragons, deeply sensing that his muscles and bones had reached a new level!

"Boom!"

Chen Fusheng felt a surge of heroism, leaping more than ten zhang high, instantly jumping to the top of a giant tree.

Then, his aura changed, his body softened, and his body resembled a Spirit Snake Diagram coiling around the giant tree and swimming downwards.

Whoosh!

The crawling speed became faster and faster, his spine was like a soft sword, and his skin was like iron, becoming more and more flexible and tough.

The medicinal power of the Heart Source Pill was too strong, and his heart was still trembling, causing Chen Fusheng to be unusually excited, jumping up and down, and full of energy.

"They all say the heart is like a restless ape, hahaha, heart ape, heart ape, the ape of the heart!"

He suddenly activated the Explosive Ape Chest Beating Diagram, and his spirit, energy, and essence underwent a great change, standing tall between heaven and earth, his black hair dancing wildly, and an unspeakable deterrent force surged from his delicate face.

"Roar..."

Chen Fusheng let out a long roar, pounding his chest with both fists, projecting a terrifying beast shadow behind him, boom, boom, boom!

With each chest beat, his heart throbbed like a drum, rhythmic, actually driving the bones of his entire body to resonate!

The sound was even extremely loud, with a kind of wave-like momentum.

As he continuously beat his chest, his whole body's Qi and blood surged, and the speed of blood circulation increased, from his feet to his head, from his back to his thighs, a kind of extraordinary power roamed his whole body!

"This is the Explosive Ape Chest Beating, Qi travels through the meridians of the whole body, there is a sense of connection, wonderful, simply too wonderful!"

As the Qi and blood surged, the Life Essence Blood rose and overflowed, Chen Fusheng only felt that his body was revived, his Qi was like thunder, running through his whole body, and his body surface emitted golden light.

Boom!

He took a big step and punched forward, the air made a rumbling sound, crackling, and one punch smashed several ancient trees, followed by smashing a large rock.

"If I had this kind of punching power a few days ago, it would be enough to hammer Teng Lin into a blood mist!"

Chen Fusheng successively practiced the Evil Tiger Diagram, the Spirit Snake Diagram, and the Explosive Ape Diagram, and his body became stronger and stronger with the horizontal training method, which can be called a rebirth.

"The heart is the source of the flesh, the link of Qi and blood, Qi travels through the body, pores spray Qi like a sword, condensed in the fist, hammering up the momentum is heavy and powerful!"

"This is the heart, involving Qi and blood, strength, the stronger it is, the more vigorous my vitality will be!"

Chen Fusheng pondered the path of cultivation, he regarded the ancient trees in the forest as enemies, a pair of fists can be called weapons, waving his legs like a big whip.

Continue to practice, ponder...

When the medicinal power of the Heart Source Pill was exhausted, he pushed the energy in his body to penetrate the Qi Sea, and the energy contained inside approached the peak of the Third Heaven!

"Break through again!"

Chen Fusheng's pupils widened, and he condensed the remaining medicinal power into one piece, and the Qi Sea suddenly burst out with the energy of the Fourth Heaven, covering his body, and the light was dazzling.

"Hahaha, Star Guiding Realm Fourth Heaven!"

"When I earn more money, I will buy the Five Organs Source Medicine, and in time, I will be able to cultivate a body that devours the energy of the stars!"

Chen Fusheng laughed loudly, the Five Organs Source Medicine are all high-level Spirit Pills, from the skin, flesh, bones, and internal organs, all tempered to be the Star Guiding Realm Perfection realm.

At that time, you can also see what level of treasure body the foundation of the flesh created by the Furnace Contemplation Method is benchmarked against.

After finishing his practice, Chen Fusheng lay on the ground with his hands behind his head, his face full of a bright smile.

It's just that there are always hidden worries in his heart, what should he do if he is exposed one day?

Chen Fusheng's drowsiness dissipated instantly, wanting to survive, to protect himself, there is only one way, to become strong and deal with everything!

"Grandpa said to run away if you can't beat them, the farther you run, the better, but now I don't even have the ability to escape."

Chen Fusheng thought of the top-grade Spirit Fish and went to the Black River.

Early morning.

The market was bustling with activity, with discussions about top-grade Spirit Fish everywhere.

In particular, the appearance of the Silver Moon Fish Shoal in the hundred-mile Black River had caused a great uproar.

Chen Fusheng had not expected that after they left, a great battle had erupted, with even treasure ships sinking, and at least a dozen demonic beasts had perished. It was said that even an Other Shore Realm Star Master had died in battle!

The whereabouts of the top-grade Spirit Fish remained unknown. According to various speculations, it had probably escaped into the depths of the Black River, making it like searching for a needle in a haystack to find it.

As for the Ebony Treasure Ship, it had gone to the depths of the Black River to search.

"It seems that no one knows that the Spirit Fish is hiding in the periphery."

Chen Fusheng pondered, how could the Spirit Fish, heavily injured, recover in just a few days?

"If I can dig it out and seize this great opportunity, my cultivation will definitely climb rapidly in the short term!"

Chen Fusheng was a man of action. He quickly went to the market area for high-end transactions, scanning the stalls on both sides of the street.

Regardless of whether he could find the top-grade Spirit Fish, he needed to equip himself fully before going down the Black River alone.

"A treasure ship that's forty percent broken, only needs nineteen hundred Star Stones, come and take a look!"

"Black River Spirit Grass, Ice Ling Grass, complete and intact roots!"

"Top-grade sword, made by a famous master, three thousand Star Stones!"

"Don't miss it, demonic beast treasure garment made from Azure Snake skin, allowing you to move freely in the water!"

"Demonic beast treasure garment!"

Chen Fusheng walked over and glanced at the treasure garment that was glowing with a cyan light and as thin as a cicada's wing. He reached out and touched it, feeling soft yet hard, and icy cold.

Chen Fusheng was moved. The treasure garment was very suitable for the Spirit Snake Diagram, and it could also enhance his defense, effectively increasing his survival rate in the water.

"This young brother has a good eye, this is a newly made Azure Snake Treasure Garment, the price is only three hundred Star Stones."

Hearing the stall owner's words, Chen Fusheng said calmly, "The Azure Snake is just the lowest-level demonic beast, the snake skin can at least make three treasure garments, it would be more reasonable if you added this retractable Fine Steel Fish Spear."

Chen Fusheng picked up the silver fish spear, weighing about five hundred pounds, which he could easily wield with his arm strength.

Having communicated with Liu Bai and the others these past few days, Chen Fusheng was no longer a novice fresh out of the gate. He had some understanding of the prices of common resources on the market.

After some bargaining, he took it down for three hundred and twenty Star Stones!

Waiting to leave the market area, Chen Fusheng found a secluded area and put on the Azure Snake Treasure Garment close to his body.

He could feel the existing defense, which would be difficult for even a Star Guiding Realm Ninth Heaven cultivator to shake.

Chen Fusheng carried the fish spear on his back, walking and stopping along the riverbank. The dozens of miles of riverbank were backed by mountains, and occasionally he would encounter anglers.

During this time, Chen Fusheng used the Spirit Snake Diagram to sense the changes in the river, discerning the faint fluctuations of demonic beasts.

"The demonic beasts must be devouring the corpses in the river. No wonder there are no boats passing on the river. It seems that no one has gone down the Black River these past few days."

Chen Fusheng found a deserted place, took off his robe and placed it in the grass, then tied the Star Stone bag to his ankle.

He held the fish spear in his left hand and jumped into the Black River without hesitation.

Splash!

A wave passed, and Chen Fusheng vanished without a trace, like a dragon returning to the sea, swimming through the water with astonishing speed.

Chen Fusheng was pleasantly surprised to discover that in the Spirit Snake Diagram state, he could breathe underwater, and his swimming ability was astonishing, much like being in an internal breathing state.

Chen Fusheng avoided the hunting areas of demonic beasts and explored aimlessly, without feeling bored. The main reason was that the Spirit Snake Diagram was more suitable for cultivation in water and could also absorb water-based energy to replenish itself.

He didn't know how long had passed when Chen Fusheng saw the boundary marker on the river area engraved with the words "Hundred Li," his heart sank slightly.

He began to change direction and swim horizontally, circle after circle, tirelessly searching.

Through the changes in the stars in the sky, Chen Fusheng became a little restless. It had been about two days and two nights. Could it be that the top-grade Spirit Fish had really escaped?

Even the demonic beasts that were hunting had left, and he had almost searched the entire hundred-li river area, but still, there were no clues.

"It's impossible for it to escape, and there's no reason for it to escape. Could it be that the perception of the Spirit Snake Diagram is not enough?"

Chen Fusheng contemplated the Star Chart Heavenly Pillar; there was no hope of activating the Flood Dragon Diagram... He fixed his gaze on the Purple Python Crossing River engraving!

"I asked Brother Lie a few days ago, snake cultivators transform into pythons after a thousand years, their bodies are extremely large, comparable to a Third Realm Star Master, and they usually cultivate within a thousand li of the Black River."

"During the Black River battle a few days ago, no Third Realm demonic beasts came to attack. After all, once such a terrifying demonic beast appears outside the Black River, it will be besieged and killed by Star Palace experts."

Chen Fusheng sat cross-legged in the water grass at the bottom of the river, untied the Star Stone bag tied to his ankle, and took out Star Stones to absorb and inject into the Purple Python Crossing River Diagram.

After waiting for dozens of Star Stones to be exhausted, the Purple Python Diagram only emitted a faint light.

Chen Fusheng continued to inject energy with a dark face. As hundreds of Star Stones were exhausted, even two hundred, all the way to three hundred... the Purple Python Diagram gradually emitted a strong light.

"A full three hundred Star Stones, plus the fish spear and treasure garment, half of my fortune is gone just like that. I hope my actions don't make me regret it!"

There was no turning back once the bow was drawn. Chen Fusheng gritted his teeth and activated the Purple Python Diagram!

In a trance, Chen Fusheng seemed to have transformed into a huge and wild purple python, spanning the river area, cutting off the river, overlooking the fish and shrimp, calling the wind and rain!

This feeling really had the power of a top expert.
