The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2275: 2264: Blood Spring of the Earth

Chapter 2275: Chapter 2264: Blood Spring of the Earth

With Ye Chenfeng's captivating presence.

Bai Xiaorou and Tan Yuanwu seemed to lose all interest in the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects.

As soon as Bai Xiaorou came to her senses, she cried out, “Brother Ye!”

Just as she was about to go all out to help Ye Chenfeng with the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects plaguing him, Ye Chenfeng's voice interjected: “Xiaorou, just stand back and watch. I’m fine now. You must listen to Brother Ye, understand?”

Hearing Ye Chenfeng's reply, Bai Xiaorou let out a small sigh of relief. Ye Chenfeng held the most crucial place in her heart; she could disregard anyone else's counsel, but she couldn't ignore Brother Ye's words. Her beautiful eyes gazed at Ye Chenfeng, who was engulfed by the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects, with deep concern.

Beside her, Tan Yuanwu finally emerged from his stupor. From Ye Chenfeng's voice, he could discern that he wasn't in pain, which astonished him. The notoriety of the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects was well-documented in numerous ancient texts. Could it be that Ye Chenfeng was inherently immune to all Brain-Eating Ghost Insects? And that they were incapable of breaching his mind?

Tan Yuanwu realized he couldn't assist at this moment. Perhaps venturing forward to help Ye Chenfeng with the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects would only escalate the problem, forcing Ye Chenfeng to then rescue them as well. A multitude of miraculous occurrences had already befallen Ye Chenfeng. Tan Yuanwu turned to Bai Xiaorou and stated, “Miss Bai, Chenfeng would never trifle with his own life. Let us observe from the sidelines, and if any trouble arises, we will act at once.”

The Brain-Eating Ghost Insects within the entirety of the forest numbered not just in the tens, millions, or tens of millions, but at least in the tens of billions, surging in wave after wave into Ye Chenfeng's Dantian.

A minimum of a billion Brain-Eating Ghost Insects had infiltrated Ye Chenfeng's Dantian. Logically, his mind should have been devoured by now, yet his vitality persisted with overwhelming strength.

This phenomenon baffled the Bloodswallow Clan Leader, who was intermittently monitoring the situation. His somber voice resonated once more within Ye Chenfeng's mind: “Boy, what exactly is transpiring? How are you not dead? It’s impossible. Is there some peculiar item within your body, or do you possess an artifact that counters Brain-Eating Ghost Insects? But don’t celebrate too soon; there are tens of billions of these insects here. Even if you possess such a treasure, it has its limits. You will ultimately be consumed by the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects and perish.”

The Bloodswallow Clan Leader, unable to perceive the conditions inside Ye Chenfeng's body, suspected that Ye Chenfeng might be carrying an item that repelled the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects.

Ye Chenfeng paid no heed to the Bloodswallow Clan Leader's voice echoing in his mind. He maintained his internal focus solely on his Dantian, where, without exception, all the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects were being absorbed and integrated by the Blood of the Earth Seven Colored Divine Spring.

The initially minuscule trace of the Seven Colored Divine Spring grew noticeably brighter and more abundant as it assimilated the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects. Beyond this, no other alterations manifested within Ye Chenfeng's being.

This development allowed Ye Chenfeng a temporary reprieve. He mentally inquired, “Old Bai, Old Hei, what is occurring?”

After a brief period of deliberation, Old Bai Wu Fengxian remarked, “Little fellow, how could we have overlooked the Blood of the Earth Seven Colored Divine Spring? Didn't we previously expound upon the origins of the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects to you?”

“The Brain-Eating Ghost Insect originates from within the earth, nurtured by the essence of the sun and moon found there; they can be considered embodiments of the earth’s aura. And the Seven Colored Divine Spring residing in your Dantian is precisely the blood of the earth.”

“These innumerable Brain-Eating Ghost Insects serve as a tremendous boon to the Seven Colored Divine Spring. As long as the Seven Colored Divine Spring functions, it emanates the earth’s aura, and the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects, born from the earth, are powerless against such an emanation.”

“The Brain-Eating Ghost Insects absorbed and merged by the Seven Colored Divine Spring are completely transformed into it. The current volume of the Seven Colored Divine Spring within your Dantian is exceedingly small. It is projected that after absorbing all these Brain-Eating Ghost Insects, the Blood of the Earth Seven Colored Divine Spring in your Dantian will expand significantly.”

Upon receiving Old Bai Wu Fengxian’s explanation, Ye Chenfeng felt completely reassured. His task was now simply to remain still and await the Seven Colored Divine Spring’s complete assimilation of all the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects.

Old Hei Jiang Yuntian’s voice also resonated in Ye Chenfeng’s mind: “Kid, didn’t we jest before about making the Star Sky Stone the heart of the heavens and the Blood of the Earth Seven Colored Divine Spring your very essence?”

“The Star Sky Stone has indeed become part of your essence now. However, the Seven Colored Divine Spring within your Dantian previously lacked the density and quantity to become your entire body’s blood; there was simply too little of it.”

“Yet, the situation has changed. The Blood of the Earth Seven Colored Divine Spring is undergoing continuous expansion. Should an opportunity arise in the future to have the Blood of the Earth replace your current blood, then worrying about insufficient quantity will be a thing of the past.”

It appears that Ye Chenfeng has turned misfortune into a significant blessing this time.

As moments passed by.

At a specific instant.

Not a single Brain-Eating Ghost Insect remained in the entire forest, and Ye Chenfeng found himself completely free of them as well.

Still, a serene smile graced Ye Chenfeng’s features. His Dantian’s Seven Colored Divine Spring had completely assimilated all the Brain-Eating Ghost Insects.

Within his Dantian, Ye Chenfeng perceived the internal transformations; the minuscule trace of Seven Colored Divine Spring had entirely morphed into a Blood Spring, from which the Seven Colored Divine Spring continuously erupted.

From this burgeoning source within his Dantian, a perpetual stream of Seven Colored Divine Spring cascaded forth, giving the impression that this Blood Spring would never exhaust its supply.

Upon reaching a certain volume, the Seven Colored Divine Spring emerging from the source would eventually recirculate back into the Blood Spring.

Old Bai Wu Fengxian remarked, “This phenomenon can be aptly described as a Blood of the Earth Spring. With this Blood Spring in place, you shall never find yourself wanting for the Blood of the Earth again.”

“You, little fellow, not only manage to extricate yourself from peril on every occasion but also seize immense fortunes each time. If someone like you cannot attain Eternal Life, then who can?”

Upon witnessing Ye Chenfeng emerge entirely unharmed, Bai Xiaorou and Tan Yuanwu finally exhaled sighs of relief, closely examining him. After all, billions of Brain-Eating Ghost Insects had infiltrated his very being.

Meanwhile, within Ye Chenfeng’s mind, the frantic voice of the Bloodswallow Clan Leader echoed: “Impossible, utterly impossible! Where did those billions of Brain-Eating Ghost Insects vanish to? What trickery have you employed?”

The sheer panic in his voice clearly indicated that even the not-yet-fully-revived Bloodswallow Clan Leader was utterly destabilized.

Indeed, the unfolding scene was exceptionally peculiar.
