Moon Gazing

Back in his room, Chen Fusheng didn't regret his actions today.

The Second Order Foundation Establishment Fluid was in hand, and the Other Shore Realm was within reach.

He had also sold the Red Sun Fish to Xu Guifen, earning 150,000 Star Stones, enough to recharge the Flood Dragon Diagram!

As for the young fish, Mu Zhen had volunteered to take care of the Fish Treasure for a while.

"Although it involved great risk, the rewards are exceptionally considerable. It's worth fighting for."

"And Xuan Yuanchang, that grandson! He turned around and suppressed me for his own benefit, utterly shameless!"

Chen Fusheng's biggest goal was the Other Shore Realm, followed by a surge in his Qi and blood to a level comparable to wolf smoke!

Whether the future holds fortune or misfortune, he would have the strength to retreat unscathed.

Just as he was about to refine the Foundation Establishment Fluid, Xu Changfeng knocked on his door and entered his room.

"Palace Master," Chen Fusheng said, rising to greet him.

"Spare me the formalities. What are your chances of winning?"

Xu Changfeng was practically tearing his hair out. He regretted showing off the Star Cloud Bag in front of all the disciples. Why did he have to act cool?

The key issue was that his treasure depended on the outcome of a mere handyman's contest. How ridiculous was that?

Chen Fusheng didn't expect the previously dignified Xu Changfeng to be so anxious, which began to shatter his lofty image of the Palace Master.

"Has Palace Master heard of Dragon Seeking Bait?"

"You have Dragon Seeking Bait!"

Xu Changfeng almost dropped his jaw. "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and win back the Gathering Star Pearl!"

"Uh, I mean, if Royal Grandson Your Highness uses the Gathering Star Pearl as a bet, might he also have Dragon Seeking Bait?"

Xu Changfeng was silent, then earnestly lectured, "Don't speak in halves in the future. It's impolite."

"As for Dragon Seeking Bait, I don't know if he has it, but even if he does, he wouldn't use it, because Dragon Seeking Bait is more valuable than the Gathering Star Pearl. To be precise, Dragon Seeking Bait is a priceless treasure."

Chen Fusheng was stunned. What was the background of the old man on the bamboo raft?

"This disciple is mainly worried that Royal Grandson Your Highness might have special Scented Bait! To be safe, I don't plan to compete with him in fishing. I plan to compete in swimming skills instead, since there's no final definition of what the competition entails."

Xu Changfeng stared at Chen Fusheng's inexplicably confident face. Was he out of his mind?

A fishing competition naturally included swimming skills. Besides, Xuan Yuanchang couldn't personally participate; his cultivation was too high.

But this was the depths of the Black River! A swimming competition had a very high mortality rate!

"Are you planning to delay for a while after he refuses? Or do you really have confidence?"

Suddenly, Xu Changfeng's eyes flashed with terrifying Soul Light. Under his gaze, Chen Fusheng's physique seemed to be forged from steel, with vigorous vitality flowing within.

His pupils contracted slightly. "Your physique is outstanding. It would be even stronger with the help of the Second Order Foundation Establishment Fluid. If you were facing someone with a special water-based physique at the Other Shore Realm, what are your chances of winning?"

"Fifty percent."

Chen Fusheng had barely finished speaking when Xu Changfeng became agitated. He continued, "I'll go buy Five Organs Source Medicine now. That should give you a sixty to seventy percent chance."

"Don't go. Focus on refining the Foundation Establishment Liquid!" How could Xu Changfeng dare let him waste time? He didn't expect Chen Fusheng to win; a draw would be a blessing from the heavens.

"Wait, didn't this kid give me Star Stones?"

Xu Changfeng was about to turn back, hesitated for a moment at the door, but couldn't bring himself to do it.

Forget it, I'll settle the score after he loses!

Currently, this matter was causing a great stir on the Flood Dragon Ship. Xu Changfeng, who was usually so smooth, suddenly opposing Xuan Yuanchang shocked all the Star Officials.

It was just that these conflicts were ignited by a mere handyman, which sounded a bit ridiculous, but hearing that he had caught Longevity Fish and such, it had also caused quite a stir.

"People fear fame as pigs fear fat. Fusheng has become completely famous now!"

Liu Bai was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. In front of Xuan Yuanchang, they were just insignificant figures.

"If you gamble again, I'll chop off your dog paws!"

Wang Lie scolded angrily. A small gamble is a pleasure, a big gamble hurts the body. This kind of high-stakes gamble felt like it would lead to annihilation.

"Ling Yao's faction went to Royal Grandson Your Highness's residence. Who knows what they're whispering about." Wang Dapang was worried. He had gone to great lengths to get on the Flood Dragon Ship, and while he had made money, trouble had also come.

Big Black Fatty analyzed that the best outcome for Chen Fusheng in the secret struggle between Xu Changfeng and Xuan Yuanchang was a draw!

Time ticked by, two days and two nights, and Chen Fusheng had not yet fully absorbed the medicinal power of the Foundation Establishment Liquid.

It was more like layers of scorching Fetal Membrane, deeply enveloping his body.

His Physical Roots constantly emitted new fluctuations, revealing a pure, infant-like aura, which was exceptionally comfortable.

When he woke up late at night, his energy was unparalleled, and he wished he could fight fiercely for three days and three nights. Then he realized that he had been like an old man on his deathbed just a few days ago?

This contrast indicated that his Physical Roots were moving towards a completely new realm!

Chen Fusheng was covered in grease, with too many impurities excreted from his pores. Fortunately, the room was fully equipped. After washing clean and looking at himself in the bronze mirror, he felt a little dazed.

His skin was exceptionally fair, his black hair was scattered around his waist, his bright black pupils radiated spirituality, and his strong muscles were full of masculinity.

"This change is a bit too big. It's no different from being reborn, right? Ling Yao, that old scoundrel, is actually a good person."

Chen Fusheng suddenly understood the true meaning of cultivation: either stand up and fight for resources, or shrink back and stay where you are, but the premise is that life comes first.

Chen Fusheng closed his eyes, Five Hearts Facing Heaven. As soon as he entered the state of Moon Gazing, the deep Azure Sky infinitely drew closer to him, more like a huge curtain enveloping him.

He was shocked, as if he had raised his hand and pulled the Starry Sky closer. He wanted to store the Starry Sky in his body!

"Physical Roots? Roughly two or three times stronger. Hiss, no wonder it's a Second Order Foundation Establishment Fluid. What level of power does the Third Order have?"

Chen Fusheng looked up at the night sky, Moon Gazing at the Azure Sky bright moon, and then stored the Moon Star in his mind. He seemed to have ascended to the night sky in a dream, stroking the bright moon with his hand, and a thousand years seemed to pass in an instant.

This amazing touch made him linger, because it was even stronger than the first time he Moon Gazed at the Sun Star. Obviously, his Physical Roots had become stronger!

Like the Meditation Method, the higher the mental power, the better the touch brought by the Moon Gazing process.

In the vast universe, there are billions of Stars, countless in number. Storing and Moon Gazing at the Stars is like a journey in a dream.

Chen Fusheng's chest rose and fell, his crown chakra glowed, receiving the bright moonlight, which penetrated into his muscles layer by layer!

"It's done!"

The Moon Star emits an incredibly dense Great Yin Qi, belonging to the water element, stimulating the source of the kidneys to rumble.

"Boom!"

Kidney Qi surges upwards, and the sound of the Yangtze River's waves can be heard in his ears. Originating from the kidneys of his five viscera, an anomaly is born, vaguely reflecting a hazy and blurred Moon Star within!

The Sun Star enters the heart palace, and the Moon Star enters the kidney palace.

Similar to the Jupiter Star, the Saturn Star, and so on, which can be called common stars in the vast starry sky, countless in number.

Waiting for Chen Fusheng to become powerful, those Azure Dragon Star, Golden Crow Star, White Tiger Star, etc., he can touch with his Physical Roots, seizing their essence to strengthen himself internally!

Among the five viscera of the physical body, the heart is the ruler, and the kidneys are the essence, storing the body's essence. The stronger they are, the stronger the functions become.

There is even a more detailed feeling, as if his ears have been opened, and his hearing has become more acute!

Moreover, his right eye has a projection of the moon, hazy yet filled with brilliant moonlight.

"The five elements and five viscera, the ears and eyes of man, the sun and moon of heaven."

Chen Fusheng has some understanding, is the human body more like a condensed small universe?

He also knows that it is difficult to reach the Other Shore Realm in his current state, and he still needs to plunder the essence of the All Heavens Stars.

If the Gathering Star Pearl is obtained, I am afraid he can succeed now!

The deeper Chen Fusheng resonates with the bright moon, the clearer the scene conceived in his body becomes, more like a huge starry sky pattern engraved in his body and mind.

But this pattern is complex and difficult to understand, involving the supreme mysteries of the stars, and he feels that the stars are changing in his body and mind, with endless postures.

"The change of the stars, hmm?"

Chen Fusheng finds these changes somewhat familiar. In contemplation, the Storage Bag opens, and Devouring Moon flies out.

On the Ink Jade Scimitar, there are dense spots of light, as if gems are inlaid on the night sky.

Because the Physical Roots have grown stronger, Chen Fusheng discovers in his visualization that the light spots are condensed spaces.

Waiting for him to stare at a light spot on Devouring Moon, it is like a condensed vast starry sky!

As his vision breaks in, after a brief moment of suffocation, he sees a huge scimitar hanging at the end of the starry sky.

The scimitar is like the incarnation of the star and moon, filled with terrifying dark fluctuations, instantly swallowing the boundaries of the starry sky, suppressing all starlight, and bringing eternal silence to the world!
