The moment the Spirit Crystal was swallowed, dense spiritual mist began to spread around Xuan Jue.
The mist did not disperse outward. It circled his body, slowly surging in and out with each breath.
As the spiritual mist changed in this manner, Su Shi'er keenly sensed a subtle shift in the aura Xuan Jue emitted.
Originally, he appeared brawny and full of power on the outside, yet inwardly gave the impression of a dried-up well and parched fields, as though his body were utterly empty, without even a trace of strength remaining.

If the True Yuan condensed in the dantian of Out of Body cultivators was a lake stretching a hundred miles, then the power contained within the dantian of a Tribulation Crossing stage existence was a boundless ocean.
