Six days had passed since Xu Taiping walked out of the River of Time.
Inside the Dragon-Trapping Tower.
"I used up the last of the Hidden Immortal Wine, along with the batch of pills Abbot Jiaye gave me, but I finally managed to restore most of my Divine Essence."
After spending six days in seclusion healing his injuries, Xu Taiping finally breathed a sigh of relief after sensing the changes in his Divine Essence.
Back in the River of Time, he had consumed nearly eight beads of Divine Essence in one go to deal with Demon Emperor Jiao, almost reaching the limit this body could withstand.
If he could not recover quickly, it would delay many of the things he needed to do next.
After all, Xiaoyu and the four young men from Mysterious Wasteland Heaven were still frozen at the bottom of that lake.
Sensing that Xu Taiping had awakened, Lotus Eye was the first to greet him:
"You used so many pills, yet it still took six days to restore your Divine Essence. It seems you need to find an opportunity to properly strengthen your Primordial Spirit."
Somewhat curious, Xu Taiping asked inwardly:
The power of the Primordial Spirit can be increased too?
Lotus Eye answered:
"Of course."
Lotus Eye explained:
"Aren't the Heavenly Wrath Five Forms Art that Great Emperor Mysterious Wasteland gave you, along with the Mysterious Wasteland Art, meant for cultivating the Primordial Spirit?"
Lotus Eye's words brought Xu Taiping to his senses, and he said with some shame:
"If you hadn't reminded me, I would almost have forgotten those two cultivation techniques."
Apart from the period just after he left the Mysterious Wasteland Tower, Xu Taiping had essentially neglected his cultivation of the Heavenly Wrath Five Forms Art and the Mysterious Wasteland Art.
