Chu Xisheng pierced the invisible barrier clean through, and his legs gave way again, nearly sending him to his knees.
Those three saber strikes had concentrated all his strength, essence, energy, and spirit. When he drove them out, his stamina had emptied like a building deserted by thieves, leaving him terribly weak.
His mind relaxed as well, and he felt quite pleased.
His enemy's failure was undoubtedly his greatest pleasure right now.
But Chu Xisheng had barely enjoyed himself for a moment before he could no longer smile.
The medicine spirit inside the invisible barrier poured madly through the breach.
It surged like floodwaters released from a dam, and Chu Xisheng, blocking the breach, was the first to bear the brunt.
A large portion poured straight into his arm and body.
Chu Xisheng's face contorted as he recalled someone saying, "If I rolled around in the medicine pool once, I'd definitely raise both my body and bloodline to the level of a Heaven's Pride."
Now he could tell that person: you might become a Heaven's Pride, provided your body didn't burst.
The medicine spirit seeping into his body was reacting violently with his flesh and muscles.
He felt his whole body swelling like a balloon, every cell seemingly exploding.
It was as though an elephant was trying to squeeze into his body, while something inside him was being squeezed out.
And it wasn't just the medicine spirit. The Blood-Origin Rebirth Great Art seemed to be acting upon his body too.
All his internal organs were undergoing drastic changes, now twisting, now expanding, now contracting, now being annihilated, now regenerating.
Changes were taking place inside his bones as well. The difference was that awakening Pure Yang Second Stage had felt like having his tendons drawn out and his marrow sucked away.
