Chapter 55 Sprout_1

Pei Ye looked at his hand, and with a thought, a chill of frost covered the wound and stopped the bleeding.

The panic in his heart had somehow subsided. He watched the tendrils greedily devour those bodies. There was another stirring in his abdomen, but he no longer felt anything.

The light cocoon shrunk into a small bundle, and two tentacle-like protrusions grew outward, one to the upper left and one to the upper right.

After being "fed" several times, it finally broke out of its shell.

In the regular system of martial arts cultivation, this process was referred to as the "Birth of the Meridian Tree."

After these two branches had sprouted, Pei Ye clearly felt that its absorption of Mysterious Qi grew much faster, perhaps... too fast.

With a normal Meridian Tree, each branching was a critical stage. It required a martial artist's arduous cultivation and the accumulation of advancements before they could break through.
