Re-entering the cultivation chamber.
This time, it wasn't Xu Chuan cultivating, but rather improving Xu Xingli's aptitude and forging her physique.
To achieve the best possible enhancement for Xu Xingli's aptitude and physique, Xu Chuan had truly spared no expense.
He took out a sky-blue horn from his storage ring.
This horn belonged to Ao Bin, a half-emperor realm dragon that Xu Chuan had encountered during his trip to the Origin Water World.
After Xu Chuan had shattered it, it fell into his hands and had been preserved until now.
Now, it was time to use it to enhance Xu Xingli's aptitude.
With a forceful pinch of his hands, the dragon horn instantly shattered, scattering across the cultivation chamber floor.
Suddenly, a clear spring materialized on the ground.
The spring water was golden, emitting a brilliant treasure light, suffused with vast martial dao rules.
Ethereal radiance soon formed a pool of water, about one zhang in size.
Ao Bin himself had transformed from a spring water spirit, leaping through the dragon gate to become a dragon.
Naturally, every part of him retained the characteristics of a spring water spirit.
Furthermore, because he had cultivated to the half-emperor realm, its effects were even better than the spring water spirit Xu Chuan had absorbed.
Standing by the pool, Xu Chuan took a slight breath and felt a sense of clarity.
His blood and qi began to churn.
Even now, the water in this pool held considerable allure for Xu Chuan.
"Brother, what is this for?"
Xu Xingli also sensed the extraordinary nature of the spring water. Suppressing the agitation in her heart, she asked Xu Chuan.
"This water is a great treasure!"
"Once you absorb it, you can improve your aptitude and increase your foundation!"
"It's a rare treasure that your brother worked hard to obtain!"
Xu Chuan explained to Xu Xingli.
*Hiss!*
Upon hearing Xu Chuan's explanation, Xu Xingli let out an uncharacteristic gasp.
Spring water that could improve aptitude and increase foundation!
This was an invaluable treasure!
She knew very well how precious this item was.
Therefore, she became anxious: "Why don't you use such a valuable thing yourself? It's a waste on me!"
Although tempted, Xu Xingli's first thought was for Xu Chuan.
Hearing this, a smile spread across Xu Chuan's face.
"It seems I haven't doted on you in vain. However, I've already absorbed it once. This item has little use for me."
"Stop dawdling, get in quickly!"
"This is nothing. What comes next is the real main event!"
Xu Chuan urged.
He felt a bit helpless, why was his sister acting like a 'ten thousand whys' today?
Anyone else would have been slapped away by him.
But who could he blame when it was his own sister?
There was no choice but to indulge her!
Hearing this, Xu Xingli no longer hesitated. She nodded, then with a hint of anticipation, sat down in the center of the pool.
The moment she sat down.
Vast amounts of heaven and earth vital energy surged towards her.
Xu Xingli had never witnessed such a scene before and immediately panicked, casting a pleading look at Xu Chuan.
"Brother..."
When danger struck, her brother was the first person she thought of.
"Don't panic, focus your mind and circulate your cultivation technique!"
Xu Chuan instructed.
Hearing Xu Chuan's voice, Xu Xingli gradually calmed down.
She began to act according to Xu Chuan's words.
As her cultivation technique circulated, the speed at which vital energy poured in greatly increased, along with immense rules and dao rhymes entering her body.
*Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!*
A resonance of dao sounded, and Xu Xingli instantly entered a state of unity between man and nature.
Seeing this, Xu Chuan knew the time had come.
He then took out the Yuan Ling Bead he had obtained from the Emperor's Tomb.
It wasn't over yet. Xu Chuan then waved his hand, and a large quantity of rare heavenly treasures appeared before him.
Without exception, these items were rare delicacies rarely seen in the outside world.
Any one of them could cause immense commotion and even fierce competition outside.
Yet, at this moment, they were laid out before Xu Chuan as if they were mere scraps.
These were all spoils of war that Xu Chuan had obtained after killing his enemies.
To be honest, there were very few that he could use.
They were all piled in his storage ring, almost forming a small mountain.
It was fortunate that Xu Chuan's storage ring was large enough to hold so many rare heavenly treasures.
Xu Chuan directly tossed the Yuan Ling Bead, which landed above Xu Xingli's head.
Immediately, a peculiar energy emanated from it, continuously being absorbed by Xu Xingli.
Then, Xu Chuan took out the Myriad Spirits Cauldron and threw the rare heavenly treasures before him into it.
Flames ignited, and these rare heavenly treasures were instantly refined into the purest energy, devoid of any impurities.
Xu Chuan then placed them around Xu Xingli's body for her to absorb, increasing her foundation.
*Rumble!*
With these three forces working in concert, Xu Xingli in the center of the pool began to glow.
She was like a celestial maiden in the water.
But soon, this beautiful scene began to change.
Although the Yuan Ling Bead could alter one's physique, the process was inevitably agonizing.
At this moment, cold sweat began to break out on Xu Xingli's forehead, and her body trembled slightly.
She gritted her teeth, her face contorted.
It was evident that she was enduring immense pain.
However, due to her trust in Xu Chuan, she didn't utter a single sound.
Xu Chuan felt a sense of relief and quickened his movements, refining the rare heavenly treasures to alleviate Xu Xingli's pain.
"Ah!"
"It hurts so much!"
When the Yuan Ling Bead completely fused into Xu Xingli's body, she finally cried out in agony.
Her heart-wrenching cries made Xu Chuan feel a pang of regret.
But once this process began, it could not be stopped.
Otherwise, it would cause irreversible damage to Xu Xingli's body and her future martial path.
Xu Chuan would never allow such a thing to happen!
"Hold on, this is to reshape your physique!"
"It will be even more painful next, but as long as you can persevere, you will possess the Yuan Ling Sacred Physique!"
"Haven't you always wanted to become the strongest in martial arts and catch up to my footsteps?"
"The opportunity is right before you. Whether you seize it depends on yourself!"
Xu Chuan shouted these words, attempting to encourage Xu Xingli.
Hearing this, Xu Xingli regained her resolve.
Clenching her teeth, she endured this immense pain.
Within her body, blood and qi churned, and the mystical power of the Yuan Ling Bead was reshaping her meridians and internal organs.
Occasionally, rumbling sounds emanated from Xu Xingli's body, echoing within the cultivation chamber.
Time passed, and Xu Xingli's physique continued to change.
Soon, half a month had gone by.
After the initial pain, Xu Xingli began to frantically and tirelessly refine that mystical power.
At the same time, she continuously absorbed the various essences around her body.
Finally.
A quantitative change led to a qualitative transformation.
*Boom!*
A vast power surged out from Xu Xingli's body.
It seemed as though a certain bottleneck had been broken.
At this moment, Xu Xingli's aura began to feel formidable.
Countless dao principles spontaneously appeared around her body, showing great familiarity.
Even the heaven and earth vital energy danced around Xu Xingli's body.
At this moment, Xu Xingli was like a celestial maiden plucking the moon from the nine heavens.
Surrounding her were myriad spirits!
