Chapter 683 Growth Pains

Chapter 683 Growth Pains

Song Lingfei looked at Wu Long with a certain excitement as she could feel her Great Void Eagle bloodline awakening, galvanized by her advance to Essence Awakening Realm.

She knew that this was not the right timing for such things, as time was of the essence. The next few days were key to their further advancements in the Boundless Profound World, and in the larger Seven Boundless Worlds as a whole. While she was a sheltered princess, she always possessed a keen insight, and understood strategy, warfare and politics fairly well.

Thus she understood that a small detour at the start of the journey could lead one to waste a lot of unnecessary efforts in pursuit of the destination.

But she still could not hide her joy at finally reaching this point, when she could give her all to him completely, and become his woman not only in mind but in body as well.

At the same time, she also was getting used to this new state as her perception of the world around started undergoing a change.

She could feel the innate sense toward Spatial Power coming out of its slumber, giving her slight dizziness from the new sensations.

Wu Long warned her, and all those who were going to undergo the Tribulation long before, back when they were still in the Fractured World, that this was going to happen, and instructed them on what to do.

Luo Mingyu, Shen Min and Xue Bing experienced their Extreme Yin Physiques awakening as well, feeling themselves undergoing changes that they could not exactly explain.

Luo Mingyu's body was gradually filling with dark and purple flames, coursing through her flesh. There was no discomfort, rather, the feeling was pleasant, but it was still disorienting.

Shen Min could feel the light and shadow, her perception of the world expanding to slightly overwhelm her as she started feeling the dissonance between the perceived world she saw and the physical world, color presenting itself as simple reflection of light. All of this was too much for her to take in at once, and would require much more time to get used to.

Xue Bing's change was the most drastic in its manifestation, as her surroundings started freezing, as she instantly distanced herself and desperately tried to control it. The ground underneath her feet became frosted, easily crumbling at the lightest touch, and snowflakes appeared in the cool crispy air, as the temperature in the entire valley dropped.

Hua Ziyan, Sui Luxiao, Nie Xiwang and Yu Huan, who had variant physiques were slightly overwhelmed by the new experiences after advancing as well. But even those who did not have such special traits, were feeling changes.

She nodded, as he leaned in and kissed her as she answered with eagerness.

He then helped his ladies individually, as did Ye Ling, who also knew how disorienting the experience could be, having quickly adjusted herself.

Even though he gave them a warning in advance and instructions on how to deal with it, he still made sure to guide them through the process.

Those who advanced among the Eternal Duality Valley and his subordinates, were also experiencing their Spiritual Qi mixing with the awakened Qi of their Spiritual Roots, to produce Reinforced Qi, creating a temporary chaos in their Qi circulation.

At the same time, Zhao Xieren was dealing with his cultivation morphing after receiving the Baptism of the Spiritual Qi here. He, along with Madam Liang and his son were among those undergoing Heavenly Tribulation, though for them there was only one strike of lightning, also known as the 'baptism' that Wu Long spoke of before.

The three of then sat in lotus positions, in deep meditation to realign their cultivation, feeling a path to further advancement for the first time ever since reaching their Realm.

But since Old Man Zhao had an abnormal foundation, that normally would have not allowed him to leave the Boundless Mortal World, he experienced a greater shock, requiring a lengthy process of healing that Wu Long had already passed to him beforehand. Fen Baihu took him away into the Sect where he could cultivate in peace for some time, proceeding to sending most of those who advanced so they could readjust.

The members of the Frozen Garden Palace adjusted faster than others, as they were practicing a cultivation method and techniques that initially were oriented toward further growth in the Seven Profound Realms, their fighting techniques aligned with their attribute types of Water and Cold, which all of them possessed since it was the prerequisite to practice those techniques.

But they still required a bit of time to readjust.

Thus, after Wu Long helped Xue Bing, Luo Mingyu and Shen Min, as well as Song Lingfei, to gain initial control over the new abilities, enough to not resist Fen Baihu's powers, they all retreated into the Mystic Realm to regroup.

The time was moving relentlessly, as the news of the Battle God's Craddle spread through this world, as they no doubt would start spreading through the Boundless Mortal World.

But they had to take this brief pause to deal with the process of advancing, a delay Wu Long was willing to accept, since it was as inevitable as growth pains.

But when he made sure that his ladies were beginning to adjust, and that now it would only take time until they completely have it under control, he left the Mystic Realm once more, and moved ahead toward the territory of the local group that they saw before, accompanied only by Madam Liang, Zhao Biren, and Hong Yue.
