Chapter 2185 Pufferfish

Dumbstruck, Zhang Xuan drove another surge of zhenqi to the same area once more.

But before he knew it, the surge of zhenqi dissipated.

It was as if there was some sort of peculiar energy lurking inside Feng Jiuge’s body, swallowing his Heaven’s Path zhenqi.

This unusual situation made Zhang Xuan narrow his eyes.

Even a God King would be restrained by him after swallowing his Heaven’s Path zhenqi, but the thing in Feng Jiuge’s body was able to devour his Heaven’s Path zhenqi.

Could Feng Jiuge’s falling cultivation be the result of the thing inside his body constantly swallowing his zhenqi?

Let’s see how much you can take in!

This situation had triggered Zhang Xuan’s competitiveness. He began to drive his zhenqi into Feng Jiuge’s body furiously through his meridians.

Initially, he had only sent in an extremely small amount out of fear that Feng Jiuge would notice it, but at this point, he pulled out all the stops.

He did not believe that the thing inside Feng Jiuge’s body would be able to swallow all the energy he was sending over!

Meanwhile, sensing an insane amount of zhenqi suddenly surging into his body, Feng Jiuge’s eyes widened into circles. An overpowering pressure carrying the weight of the heavens rushed rampantly into his body. He felt like his soul would be torn apart at this rate.

So, he anxiously tried to withdraw his wrist, only to realize that the other party’s fingers were holding onto him firmly like a pair of metal tongs. No matter how he tugged and pulled, he was unable to retract his hand.

“Let…”

Feng Jiuge wanted to shout out loud, but the other party’s zhenqi was simply too strong. He felt like he was being utterly subdued by the force, preventing him from even speaking properly.

On the other hand, Zhang Xuan was completely unaware of Feng Jiuge’s state. He had closed his eyes in order to focus entirely on dealing with the thing in Feng Jiuge’s body.

Under the rush of his Heaven’s Path zhenqi, he was finally able to perceive what the thing was. It was a gray congregation of energy, but he could not tell exactly what it was.

As Zhang Xuan channeled his zhenqi to charge at the gray congregation of energy, the latter immediately released a green glow.

No, it isn’t swallowing my zhenqi… Rather, the two forces are neutralizing one another?

He was perplexed as to what kind of force was capable of swallowing his Heaven’s Path zhenqi, but it seemed like he was mistaken. The two forces were actually thinning down one another.

When his Heaven’s Path zhenqi collided with the gray stream of energy, the two forces transformed into a green glow of energy before dissipating.

No, that doesn’t seem to be it. The gray congregation of energy doesn’t seem to be neutralizing all of my Heaven’s Path zhenqi…

His Heaven’s Path zhenqi was swiftly vanishing as it collided with the gray congregation of energy, but weirdly enough, while a huge chunk of it was vanishing, there was still a small portion that was being left behind.

Going by proportions, in about a hundred surges of zhenqi, there would be one surge that was retained.

Wait a moment! Is this… refinement? Zhang Xuan’s heart skipped a beat.

He could sense it. The Heaven’s Path zhenqi that remained had been purified by at least tenfold. While he could not sense exactly how much stronger it had become, it was clear that it had gone through a transformative change.

That’s not exactly it either. It seems to be neutralizing my Heaven’s Path zhenqi, leaving behind just the zhenqi I’ve cultivated after comprehending the Pathos of Heaven…

Currently, there were two different types of zhenqi mixed into Zhang Xuan body—the Heaven’s Path zhenqi, which he cultivated using the Heaven’s Path Divine Art, and the upgraded version of it after he started cultivating the Pathos of Heaven.

Those two were mixed together, and it was extremely hard to separate them from one another. Given the difficulty in doing so, Zhang Xuan had not bothered dealing with it.

Yet, who could have known that he would be able to do it through the gray congregation of energy?

The gray congregation of energy was able to neutralize his Heaven’s Path zhenqi, but it was utterly helpless against the zhenqi that he had cultivated using the Pathos of Heaven. As a result, it created an effect similar to refinement.

I didn’t think you’d be so useful to me. Since you can refine my zhenqi, I’ll give you more of it!

With such a thought in mind, Zhang Xuan continued blasting his zhenqi into Feng Jiuge’s body.
