Lin Fan just sat there in silence, as he tried to figure out what had just happened.
But before he could do anything else, he felt something strange again from his dantian.
This time, it wasn’t the bundle of energy that he had received from Ye Qing Huan.
Instead, this time it was his dantian itself that was reacting.
It was as if something had incited it…but this wasn’t a sign that he was about to break through again.
Instead, it felt like there was something that was being fixed inside of him. It was as if there was a part of him that had been missing and this feeling was what was filling up that missing part of him.
He didn’t know why it felt this way, but it did feel this way…
It was a very strange feeling.
As this thing that seemed to be missing was filled up, Lin Fan could tell that the flow of his spiritual energy was getting even better.
It was as if his dantian was slowly getting better and absorbing spiritual energy from the surrounding area and distributing it to his body.
But he didn’t know why this was the case.
Could it be that there was something wrong with his dantian in the first place and it was only being fixed now?
But if there was something wrong, why didn’t he know about it previously?
Lin Fan kept thinking about this as the feeling of something being fixed inside of him continued.
However, before that feeling could be complete, it suddenly stopped.
It was as if the thing that was broken was only partially fixed and it wouldn’t be fixed anymore.
It was almost an annoying feeling of something being left unfinished…but I didn’t even know what this feeling was in the first place…
Until I remembered something.
Wasn’t my spirit root crippled before?
The system had healed it, but I had never seen it being used before. It was as if it was just there and never provided me with anything special.
Could it be that the system tricked me?
The Five Elemental Heavenly Root, it was something that should have allowed him to control the five elements of heaven and earth and yet he had only been able to control two elements previously. Only when he had found the Azure Wind Jade had he been able to use a third element.
So did that mean that the system had tricked him.
As if on cue, the system suddenly popped out and said, “Host, please do not randomly accuse the system.”
When Lin Fan saw this notification, he couldn’t help being surprised by the system’s sudden response. However, once he overcame this surprise, he began questioning the system.
“System, if that isn’t the case, why does it feel this way?”
The system didn’t answer right away, almost as if it was pausing to give a sigh.
Then a notification popped out that said, “Host, the Five Elemental Heavenly Root is something that needs to be activated. The system had properly restored this spirit root, but before it was activated, the host wouldn’t be able to draw out the full power of this spirit root.”
“Activated?” Lin Fan couldn’t help saying in a confused voice before saying, “What do you mean by activated?”
Another notification popped up that said, “The Five Elemental Heavenly Root is a spirit root that requires pure energy from all five elements before it can be activated. Until all of the required pure elemental energy sources are gathered, the Five Elemental Heavenly Root will be inactive. It will only be a boost to the host’s physique rather than allowing the host to control elemental energy.”
Lin Fan couldn’t help knitting his brows when he read this.
He didn’t know anything about this before the system had told him this and he couldn’t help blaming the system for not telling him this sooner.
There was another notification that appeared that said, “The host never checked the Five Elemental Heavenly Root with his Appraisal Eyes. How can the host blame the system?”
Three black lines appeared on Lin Fan’s face when he heard this as he felt the urge to beat up the system.
However, when he did what the system had advised, he found that the information that the system had just given him had indeed popped up in front of him.
It seemed that it really was his own fault for not checking it…so he really couldn’t blame the system…
But it made him feel better to blame the system instead of taking responsibility for this.
The system suddenly gave another notification that said, “The host should really learn to take responsibility for his own actions.”
Lin Fan once again felt the urge to beat up the system after seeing this.
But instead, he asked, “Then why does it feel like something has been repaired if the Five Elemental Heavenly Root hasn’t been activated?”
The system was silent for a bit before it suddenly said, “Host, please look at the status once more.”
When Lin Fan opened his status, he couldn’t help being surprised by the one new thing that had appeared.
Five Elemental Heavenly Root (Partially Awakened).
That was what his new spirit root was.
The spirit root itself was still the same, but it seemed that something had changed with it that it was now partially awakened.
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes, but instead of checking it with his Appraisal Eyes, he asked the system, “System, what does this mean?”
The system seemed to give another sigh before it said, “Host, please use the Appraisal Eyes.”
But Lin Fan said, “It won’t give me the full picture, I want you to explain it.”
The system was once again silent for a while before finally giving another notification.
This notification had an explanation about the changes with his body.
“The host has absorbed the power of the Heavenly Demon Art because of the dual cultivation session with individual Ye Qing Huan. That is the energy that is currently inside of the host’s dantian.”
This was something that I had already guessed since this energy had only appeared after that dual cultivation session with Ye Qing Huan. So this wasn’t something that was really that hard to guess…
I just calmly said, “Get to the point.”
After another pause, the system released another notification, “The Heavenly Demon Art is a technique that allows the user to draw in all forms of energy in this world. The energy that is left behind by it naturally has the power to do the same.”
Once again, Lin Fan couldn’t help feeling that the system was stalling, so he said, “Once again, get to the point.”
The system gave a visible sigh this time in the form of a notification right in Lin Fan’s face.
It was a large notification that said the word ‘sigh’.
Three black lines appeared on Lin Fan’s face after seeing this, but he held himself back and waited for the system to continue.
Finally, after a long pause, the system said, “Since the Heavenly Demon Art allows the user to draw in all forms of energy in this world, that also includes elemental energy such as the ones in the host’s dantian. This has caused the host to be able to gather the three pure elemental energies gathered in the host’s dantian together, integrating it into the Five Elemental Heavenly Root.”
Another notification followed that said, “The Five Elemental Heavenly Root is awakened when all five pure elemental energies are gathered in the host’s body. However, since the Heavenly Demon Art gathered the energy together for the host and integrated it into the Five Elemental Heavenly Root, the Five Elemental Heavenly Root has been partially awakened.”
Lin Fan finally revealed a look of understanding when he heard this.
In the end, it was all a series of coincidences that had allowed him to break through twice like this.
It was all a bunch of lucky things that combined together that had granted him this blessing.
It really was a testament to his -10 luck.
If it wasn’t for his system helping him along the way, he would have exploded from all of this energy gathering. If it wasn’t for his system helping him, he never would have even obtained any of these things that would have made it possible.
So in the end, he had to thank the system for everything…though he wouldn’t actually do that.
“You’re welcome.”
Lin Fan kept forgetting the system could read his mind…
But there was another question that he had.
A notification popped up that said, “Because of the host breaking through, the Heavenly Demon Art’s power was incited and it helped the host gather together the three pure elemental energies to help the host break through again.”
So it was all because of the Heavenly Demon Art’s power that this happened.
It was all thanks to Ye Qing Huan that this happened…
But Lin Fan didn’t know how to face Ye Qing Huan or even Ye Tian Xie in the future because of the matter with Mu Bao Bao…
After thinking for a bit, Lin Fan took a deep breath and let out a big sigh before calming himself down.
For now, this was not a problem that he had to deal with.
For now, his only job was to get stronger so he would be able to face these things in the future.
If he spent all of his time worrying about this, he would never get anything done.
So it was best to just not think about it now.
