Chapter 4 - The Red Pearl

Bai Feng grabbed the pills from the cluster of [Earthen pills] that lay before him. Before he absorbed the energy from them he decided to calm his mind and body so that there wouldn't be any problems when he was breaking through. This period of inner peace lasted for about a quarter of an hour before Bai Feng began his breakthrough.

He swallowed all 123 pills and immediately started absorbing the energy he done this so there wouldn't be a large loss of unused energy within his body. He moved the energy throughout his body as much as he could and tried to fuse them into the deepest parts of his body.

His bones, muscles and organs all felt as if there were constantly on fire as they received energy from a large number pills. This moment of absorption lasted for an hour before Bai Feng realized in the middle of it that he had long ago met the requirements to absorb martial energy meaning that he had already broken through to the last rank of the mortal realm.

It took some time but he decided to continue absorbing the energy from the pills because he realized that the more energy he absorbed into his body meant that the inside of his body would become more powerful, more tensile and would have a higher tolerance than ordinary rank 5 mortal realm cultivators.

It also meant that his bones, muscles and skin would be more tough which were all important factors to consider when solidifying your base of cultivation.

When Bai Feng had finished absorbing all of the martial energy from the 123 [Earthen pills]. He jumped up as if there were springs on the bottom of his feet and started to exercise his whole body even including his third leg. Once he had finished he started performing punching and kicking exercises

'My strength has truly improved. My body feels incredibly light but at the same time seems as if it's capable of destroying a large boulder with one simple kick and bringing down a tree with a simple slap. with this body strength, I truly won't have any problems when I start to absorb the thick martial energy here and while the martial pressure is still intense, I can bear it now'

With this conclusion Bai Feng started walking towards the roasting pot.

When he reached the pot he sat down and dipped his head into the roasting pot to investigate the source of the red light, what he found surprised him and made him raise his both eyebrows.

In the middle of the pot, a pearl as red dry human blood was surrounded by scarlet flames that almost made the pearl seem akin to an illusion.

But Bai Feng's amazing perception allowed him to know that the pearl was very much real.

As in a trance he hovered his hand above the scarlet flames and instead of it being searing hot he was shocked to find that it was in reality extremely cold. His hand shivered from the cold and he immediately removed his hand and inspected the flame and pearl with utmost caution and curiosity.

He reached in carefully into the pot, making sure not to touch the Icey scarlet flames as he was fearful of the cold he had felt before.

He grasped the red pearl expecting it to also be cold but found out that it was surprisingly very warm even though it was surrounded by harsh cold flames.

He spun the pearl in his hands a few times to see if there was anything special with it, but it seemed like an ordinary pearl to him. Then suddenly a sight caught his attention and surprise.

Right in the middle of the blood scarlet pearl. A dark blob was moving around as if trying to break out of the pearl. He leaned in towards the pearl to get a better look at the blob.

When suddenly…the mysterious blob suddenly opened it eyes. Bright golden pupils with an assortment of rainbow colors including red, green and blue, stared at him.

Bai Feng replied to this event with just astonished eyes and a wide open mouth. Before he could react the scarlet red pearl flew out of his hand and completed a full circle orbit around his entire body with unimaginable speed, then it suddenly stopped around the stomach area and sped towards his body.

Just when Bai Feng noticed what was happening, the pearl entered into his body stopped and settled at the edge of his dantian where it stayed there and did not even move another inch.

"As I thought you possess the birth mark of the Seven Celestial Dragon family and your bloodline is the purest I have ever seen out of all the members of the Seven Celestial Dragon family" said a powerful voice that echoed from within the red pearl.

Before Bai Feng could even grasp what was happening, he suddenly felt nauseous and the world started spinning. As a result of the extreme nausea, he fainted, and after 30 minutes of being unconscious, he came to, but was surprised to find that his surroundings had completely changed. Instead of seeing the interior of a cave, what he saw was an absolute white scenery.

When Bai Feng got up, he checked his surroundings only to see absolute white. He could only see endless white wherever he looked

Bai Feng began to show signs of panic as he couldn't understand his current situation, he thought as hard as he could but couldn't figure out where he was. The only guess he could make was that either he was hallucinating or he had been dragged into another world.

While Bai Feng was puzzled trying to assess his situation, he didn't notice that behind his back, was the red pearl floating, however at the current moment it was emitting an incredibly bright red light. Through the red light one would be able to see if they squint their eyes that the red pearl was transforming this very moment.

The red pearl transformed into a figure that nearly had a humane figure but was a bit different. The figure within the light opened its eyes and below its face a wide grin showing incredibly sharp teeth was revealed through the thick light…
