The world continues as before.

If he didn't use his mental power to slow down the speed of his thoughts and Zhang Xuezhou, traversing was simply a matter of opening and closing his eyes before switching bodies.

To prevent himself from losing his way while immersed in the spiritual spring, Zhang Xuezhou made preparations.

He became more vigilant.

In his perception, Zhang Xuezhou pierced through the darkness and welcomed the passageway provided by the tree chair.

Everything was the same as usual, except that when Zhang Xuezhou clashed with the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, he felt a chill that penetrated deep into his soul.

In that instant, Zhang Xuezhou felt as if he had entered an ice cave and been frozen for years.

Even a brief encounter with Zhang Xuezhou Zhang Xuezhou caused him this discomfort, which made him wonder what state the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon was in after being immersed in the spiritual spring for twelve days.

Without the tree chair's periodic pulling and shifting, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon might have remained immersed in it indefinitely.

Whether it's defeating the opponent, making the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon forget as Ren Anran mentioned, or trapping the opponent in a certain state, Zhang Xuezhou felt that all the options were acceptable.

He used to think there was only one path, but as he continued upwards, his path no longer seemed as narrow as before, but began to branch out into forks.

He may even have already had some impact on the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon in the present moment.

Feeling the chill of the frost, Zhang Xuezhou drew closer and closer to the ray of light.

The feeling of his three souls and seven spirits resonating with his body surged into his mind, and he suddenly opened his eyes and leaped up, not lingering in the same spot.

Spring water cascaded down his body as Zhang Xuezhou leaped off.

"Oops!"

As Zhang Xuezhou felt the looseness of the divine robes about to slip down, he knew things were going to get really bad.

"It's over!"

There was no need to check his body; the gold-embroidered cloud-patterned shoes he was wearing were clearly too big.

When Zhang Xuezhou stretched out his leg and lifted his foot, he saw that his foot was white and tender.

If the skin is soaked in water for a long time, it will inevitably turn white, but Zhang Xuezhou can accept the feeling of being moist and supple.

But he felt he shouldn't keep getting smaller and smaller.

When the body is immersed in liquid, it will temporarily absorb some of the liquid, causing swelling.

From a normal perspective, Zhang Xuezhou felt that his body should be swollen, even with the spiritual spring water.

"I've shrunk!"

After looking at his feet, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but stretch out his hands as well. He felt that his hands had shrunk, completely losing their previous size.

"Could it be that the turbid aura of the Zhuang family's Law Treasure cloth reacted with the spiritual spring?"

The Bifeng Passage that obscures the spiritual spring remains unchanged, but no one comes here.

Zhang Xuezhou considered many possibilities, including being captured by the two Western religious leaders, being bumped into by his senior brother Buddha, being discovered by other competitors and making it difficult to pass, or the Xuan Nu searching for him after the event ended and eventually finding him here.

But none of what he hoped for happened.

Zhang Xuezhou was the only one at this sacred spring; there was no one else beside him.

But his body has changed.

"Fall!"

Zhang Xuezhou reached out and touched his own body, causing the crimson-gold robe he was wearing to fall off, revealing his physique, which was not particularly strong in appearance.

Her body appeared somewhat thin beneath her pale complexion, enveloped in an aura of light, making her seem almost glowing.

He removed his mask, touched his face, and then looked into the still clear and transparent Zhang Xuezhou water.

A remarkably young face was reflected in the spring water.

Zhang Xuezhou touched his face; the young face looked both familiar and strange.

The reason it was familiar was naturally because it was indeed his face, while the reason it was unfamiliar was that Zhang Xuezhou hadn't seen this face for many years.

No matter how much he uses heavenly materials and earthly treasures to maintain his youth, or how much he cultivates himself to look young, Zhang Xuezhou is already quite old, and no matter how much he tries to persuade him to stay, he still exudes the air of an adult.

In the reflection of the spring water, there was a face with a youthful appearance.

"It seems like I'm twelve or thirteen years old; my body has been rejuvenated by being immersed in this place!"

For some people who want to stay eighteen years old, the spring water of Lingshan Mountain must be regarded as the most precious treasure in the world, but such a reversal must mean that the body has undergone extremely drastic changes.

What did I give in return?

Vishnu was right; this sacred spring can indeed rejuvenate the body and prevent aging.

But this must come at a price; otherwise, the two religious leaders could have maintained their youthful and vigorous bodies for a long time simply by relying on the spring water, and the Western Sect could have become a unique place of immortality.

And his body is not just a superficial rejuvenation.

Zhang Xuezhou carefully examined himself and found that the enormous energy that had been stored in his body had vanished.

He was someone who could withstand being beaten by Xuan Nu for a whole day and night, but Zhang Xuezhou felt that he could be knocked down by Xuan Nu's sword with a single blow.

His body had become younger, but he had lost almost 90% of his physical strength. Zhang Xuezhou, Grain Avoidance Instruction Divine Ability, even felt hungry.

This was a rare occurrence after he Grain Avoidance Instruction Technique. Even when Zhang Xuezhou ate after regaining consciousness, it was only to maintain his body's normal physiological functions, so as to avoid the degeneration of his organs caused by prolonged fasting.

He rarely eats because he's hungry, but right now, he's experiencing this discomfort.

"Suck!"

The Grain Avoidance Instruction the body to operate rapidly and actively. Zhang Xuezhou directly relies on the Spiritual Qi contained in the spiritual spring water for transformation, thereby filling the Kongxu in his body.

"The spring water's Spiritual Qi is far less than before!"

The drastic change in the tangible environment caused Zhang Xuezhou's expression to change as he realized he needed to leave quickly to avoid being caught by the two cult leaders.

After circulating the Grain Avoidance Instruction for half an hour, Zhang Xuezhou only recovered some of his physical strength before quickly putting back on the divine robes bestowed with the seal.

Without his guidance, the divine robes that had been bestowed upon the deity remained the same size.

"Change!"

Zhang Xuezhou pointed to his chest, and the changes brought about by the aging technique allowed his body to quickly regain its support. His somewhat shrunken head even began to grow larger, starting to fit his original body height and adapting to the original size of his divine robe.

Zhang Xuezhou and the others had previously used aging techniques to transform themselves into elderly people who were all broad-shouldered and robust, appearing exceptionally strong. They had been trying to shrink their bodies to make their aging features more realistic.

Time has passed, Zhang Xuezhou never imagined that he wouldn't need to shrink his body down, but rather that he would have to stretch it up.

The seemingly harmless aging spell was, in this moment, a divine spell that restored Zhang Xuezhou to normal, thus avoiding any potential repercussions.

"I can cast this Technique Method much faster now!"

The casting speed of the Aging spell can be increased through practice; continuous use over the years will make the casting speed faster and faster.

However, the aging technique is not Technique Method that requires direct combat. As long as it is used accurately, the speed at which it is faster or slower has little impact.

Because of this philosophy, Zhang Xuezhou had a limited number of attempts to practice the art of aging.

He is well aware of his original level, and he is also well aware of his current level.

Li Shaojun has practiced for so many years, but perhaps he is not as relaxed and at ease as he is now.

"My Technique Method flow so much more smoothly, my Law Power... my Law Power circulation is actually running perfectly?"

It wasn't difficult to find the reason for the sudden improvement in his Technique Method; Zhang Xuezhou understood the situation in a short time.

He stretched out his right hand and touched the top of his head in disbelief.

In Zhang Xuezhou's mind, the two bridges of heaven and earth seemed to have undergone a similar transformation as his body.
