Chapter 1401: Chapter 1396: Anomaly (Part 1)

The first time, he drank quite a lot, which almost caused his whole being to explode.

Since breaking through to Innate, until now, the Dragon Marrow energy lurking within him had been consumed completely.

It’s important to note that several months had already passed.

Moreover, he had broken through a significant level.

It could be said that the energy within the Dragon Marrow was unimaginably large.

This one drop was just within his capacity to bear.

But even so, under normal circumstances, it would take roughly ten days to absorb.

Now, he planned to absorb it all at once.

Meaning, he didn’t plan to let the remaining energy linger within his body.

This was a crazy idea.

No less risky than him almost exploding the first time.

The benefit being, there was a probability for his realm to advance further.

That is, stepping into the peak of the Early Innate Stage.

At this level, he could step into the Mid-Innate Stage at any moment.

Once at this level, his strength would improve significantly.

If lucky to break through to the Mid-Innate Stage, then even amidst a thousand troops, he would have more power to protect himself.

Besides, this was just the golden triangle.

The strength of the warlords, compared to the troops in Huaxia, was worlds apart.

Therefore, even if his plan failed, he still had ample assurance for a safe retreat for him and He Zhanyin.

After first cultivating for two hours, his daily cultivation time reached a limit.

At this moment, he exited the Jade Pendant Space, with a drop of crystalline Dragon Marrow in his hand.

Without any hesitation, he swallowed the Dragon Marrow.

The Dragon Marrow immediately transformed into an immense energy, explosively filling every corner and cell of his body in an instant.

Lin Xi let out a cold snort!

Immediately, the Xuanyuan Divine Dragon Art operated at full power.

Strands of energy were converted into a special type of True Qi.

This True Qi was far stronger than his normal True Qi.

To put it in perspective, the True Qi transformed from Dragon Marrow was like milk, whereas his True Qi was like clear water.

This was not unusual!

That was the most refined essence left by the Divine Dragon.

Divine Dragon!

That is, Mengmeng’s mother.

Unlike Mengmeng, who had only Innate strength.

In the scene Lin Xi observed, Mengmeng’s mother had earth-shattering powers.

Or put another way, those figures from mythology might not even compare.

Of course, if the Dragon Marrow had been left by the present Divine Dragon, Lin Xi wouldn’t dare approach it.

Approaching it would definitely result in being reduced to ashes.

Who knows how many tens of thousands of years later, the energy of the Dragon Marrow left by the Divine Dragon was merely one out of ten million.

Not only did it dissipate, it more so healed the injury left on Mengmeng long ago.

Let’s not delve into this!

At this moment, Lin Xi’s forehead veins were prominently visible.

Or rather, his whole body seemed to be releasing a large amount of steam.

Just like a pot of water placed on fiercely burning wood, steam emitting under high temperature.

Luckily, Lin Xi had opened the room’s window at the beginning.

Otherwise, people might assume there was a fire or something.

Fortunately too, the hotel’s facilities were poor.

Although claiming to be five-star, compared to those domestically, it was merely a motel.

No choice, in such a place, this was very normal.

If it had some sort of intelligent sensors, an alarm response would have appeared immediately.

It’s just that, if the abnormality on Lin Xi didn’t disperse soon, it might draw others’ attention.

After all, even with the window open, if someone noticed, they would find it unusual.

Moreover, it wasn’t just heat being emitted from Lin Xi’s body.

In an instant, his clothing seemed to explode off him, shredding like someone ripped them apart, flying around the room.

Clearly visible now, his entire body was flushing red.

Appearance akin to a cooked prawn.

The faint wrinkle on his brow indicated the immense and indescribable pain he was enduring.

To know, even cutting flesh or scraping bones wouldn’t make him furrow his brow.

"Never thought it would be like this!" he silently cursed to himself.

This was arguably the most painful time in his life.

Even more painful than when he had consumed too much Dragon Marrow last time.

After all, this time he was forcefully breaking through.

The massive energy filled every single cell of his body.

Especially his internal meridians, enduring the agonizing cycle of tearing and healing.

To use an analogy, it was as if his arm was ground into minced meat.

Then immediately reassembled and healed.

After healing, ground again.

This relentless cycle, even for someone who could endure pain well, would struggle to withstand.

Possibly fainting from pain at any moment.

But Lin Xi couldn’t faint now.

With immense willpower, he kept his mind clear.

If he fainted, it would signify his breakthrough was unsuccessful.

Therefore, he absolutely must not pass out.

Amidst emitting steam-like heat, sweat was streaming down as if traversing in rain.

The bedding and mattress were soaked almost instantly.

There was a faint darkness where Lin Xi was sitting.

It wasn’t anything else.

Rather, his body temperature was so high that the bedding seemed scorched.

If not for the sweat, the room might catch fire.

"Endure it!"

"Endure it!"

"Charge through for me!"

"Break!"

Lin Xi repeatedly chanted internally, continuously impacting the thin membrane.

Once broken through, he would enter the peak of the Early Innate Stage.

Possibly, with one effort, reach the Mid-Innate Stage.

At that level, even returning to his homeland, with the ten great families coming, he would have almost no worry.

In the same realm.

He was extremely confident, feeling invincible!

No matter their numbers, with constant Spiritual Qi replenishment, he would be in an undefeatable position.

Only, breaking through this stage wasn’t easy.

Otherwise, he would have done it long ago.

At this time, the hotel hallway’s cleaning staff noticed the anomaly.

Seeing Lin Xi’s door with closed but faint steam and mist escaping.

"Is it a fire?" His first thought was this.

Without hesitation, he immediately ran off.

Yes, to notify the hotel manager of the fire.

Next to Lin Xi’s room, He Zhanyin suddenly woke from his slumber.

He always slept lightly, and the activity in the hallway just now roused him immediately.

In this kind of area, constant vigilance was necessary.

Otherwise, you wouldn’t even know how you died!
