Chapter One Hundred Sixty-Three: The Fear Brought by Upgrading
Ultimately, the solidified Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy within Ye Luo was artificially infused. Since it could be injected into his body, there must be a way to expel it as well. When it came down to it, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy itself was the fundamental element that allowed a Professional to upgrade. Therefore, Ye Huan chose the least reliable suggestion proposed by Yang Guangyao: to use his own body as a vessel to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy into himself.
If anyone were to know Ye Huan's plan at this moment, regardless of whether they were a Professional or not, they would surely be shocked by his audacity. After all, throughout the history of the Nine Provinces Continent, there had never been a case where every part of a person's body was filled with Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. Even a Ninth-Level Practitioner would have to consider their limits when attempting to absorb such an immense amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. It would be best if they could contain it, but if they exceeded their physical limits, not only Ye Luo but anyone trying to absorb the vast Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy from him would likely meet a dire fate.
Moreover, Ye Huan was still just a Fifth-Level Summoner.
Ye Huan was well aware of this, but precisely because of this understanding, he was more cautious than ever. The carefree attitude he usually held had long been cast aside. He prepared thoroughly, first depleting all the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy stored in his Dantian except for the Golden Core. Then he crafted all the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy from the 2012 Arms Compendium into weapons before attempting to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy within Ye Luo's body. He placed one hand on Ye Luo's left arm...
This time, since there was no remaining Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy in Ye Huan's body except for that which formed his Golden Core, as soon as he made contact, the vast Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy within Ye Luo surged toward him like floodwaters breaching a dam. It overwhelmed him instantly, leaving him feeling unprepared. Fortunately, this sensation lasted only an instant; the intense pain from the influx of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy tearing at his meridians brought him back to reality, forcing him to focus entirely on the spiritual energy entering his body through his palm.
He began to calmly operate the cultivation technique taught in Eastern State Jade Wuxia. To prevent the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy from overwhelming his body, Ye Huan pulled each influx of energy into his Dantian as it entered. However, in such a short time frame, he could not convert this energy into usable form; otherwise, he might have broken through from the Golden Core Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage shortly after achieving his current level—a rumor that would undoubtedly astonish many.
As seconds ticked by, beads of sweat began to form on Ye Huan's forehead. On one hand, it was due to the pain from absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy; on the other hand, it stemmed from anxiety. From start to finish, it had only been about ten minutes, yet Ye Huan could clearly feel that his Dantian was nearing its limit. If this continued, he would inevitably face a catastrophic outcome.
Thus, Ye Huan dared not continue absorbing this Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy through his body. Instead, he quickly grabbed the Summoning Book and injected all the collected Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy into the 2012 Arms Compendium.
Unlike a human body, the Summoning Book was an exceptionally unique entity within a Summoner's being that welcomed Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy without reservation. It could absorb nearly as much as was available; however, it also had its limits—specifically during upgrades. Once the Summoning Book absorbed a significant amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy and entered an upgrading process, it became difficult for any more energy to enter it. Although this period was brief, for Ye Huan—who was currently helping Ye Luo expel a large amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy—it posed a deadly crisis.
In terms of time, it had been five months since Ye Huan had failed to advance from a Fifth-Level Summoner to a Sixth-Level Summoner. This was indeed closely related to the fact that reaching the fifth level of Professional required a massive amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. However, the more significant reason was that after arriving in the Eastern State, the 2012 Arms Compendium had hardly seen a moment's rest, constantly being utilized by Ye Huan to summon various Arms. Even after returning to Jiuzhou, this situation had not changed at all. One could only wonder how a Summoning Book that had never reached saturation could undergo the process of upgrading.
Now, things were different. After a large amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy flowed through Ye Huan's body and into the Summoning Book, its capacity quickly reached the peak level of five. Yet no matter how hard Ye Huan tried, he found that the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy within him could no longer be infused into the Summoning Book. This could only mean one thing: after lingering at the Fifth-Level Summoner stage for five months, Ye Huan's identity as a summoner was about to upgrade once again!
For others, taking just over seven months, or even less than eight, to leap from a novice who had just begun their journey in Professional to a Sixth-Level Summoner would be enough to keep them excited for days and nights without sleep. However, for Ye Huan at this moment, he felt no excitement about becoming a Sixth-Level Summoner; instead, he was filled with dread.
It was no wonder. The only two things Ye Huan relied on to absorb the vast amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy from Ye Luo were his own body and the Summoning Book. Now, under the infusion of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, Ye Huan's body had already reached saturation. Everything rested on the Summoning Book, and just at this moment, it was about to upgrade. Wasn't this inviting Ye Huan to face the violent impact of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy and perish?
"All calculations are inferior to heaven's decree. Damn it! Why does it have to upgrade now? What am I supposed to do when I leave? What will happen to Huaxia Nation? What about Zhao Ziyu? Who will take care of Yu Wuxia?!"
Filled with unwillingness, Ye Huan wanted nothing more than to give heaven the middle finger. Unfortunately, after the Summoning Book stopped absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, a large amount had already surged into Ye Huan's limbs and meridians. Even lifting his hand became difficult; giving heaven the middle finger was utterly impossible.
Feeling his body swell increasingly with Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, Ye Huan knew he could not escape this calamity. He began to struggle violently; after all, it didn't matter if he died, but if he were to explode due to an accumulation of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, what would happen to the three hundred members of Dragon Hall in Tianyue City? What about Zuo Yi and the others? And what about Ye Luo, whom he had vowed to save?
