Chapter 577: Chapter 577 Successful

He continued with the great task of assimilation.

But the next second, his face turned extremely uncomfortable.

It turned out that after the assimilation, the power became even stronger, causing a shock to Xiao Zhan’s meridians.

His body’s attribute was not suited for the emergence of such Yang Attribute energy; the selection of the Fourth Grade Spirit Fruit was precisely because Xiao Zhan could withstand the shock that the Yang Attribute caused to his body.

But now, as the fusion progressed, the energy grew stronger, and so did the shock to Xiao Zhan’s meridians, naturally causing him to feel pain.

Indeed, one must eat food one bite at a time and not rush things!

Xiao Zhan wanted to stop this process, but he felt he couldn’t give it up, as this was a sign of success. If he gave up, what would he do later?

Would he not seek a solution forever after?

With this thought, Xiao Zhan hurriedly pondered a solution.

He activated the Death Aura to assimilate this energy; sure enough, as the Yang Attribute energy decreased, the pain vanished.

However, the intensity of the Death Aura was too strong; Xiao Zhan lost control for a moment and devoured and annihilated the energy directly.

The first attempt failed.

Xiao Zhan regrouped and immediately began his second attempt.

This time, Xiao Zhan chose to chew slowly, not assimilating too much energy at once; instead, he assimilated it gradually, like the flow of a small stream.

Thus, the effect was evident, and the stabbing pain in his meridians reduced significantly.

Xiao Zhan was pleased in his heart.

So, he chewed even more slowly and meticulously, the stream turning into a ditch, the ditch turning into a small pipe, the small pipe turning into water permeating through a crack until Xiao Zhan’s meridians could no longer feel any pain, and only then did he stop.

Although slow, this method caused no harm to the body.

After approximately three hours, having expended a great deal of mental effort, Xiao Zhan transformed a roughly equal amount of Yang Attribute energy.

His body did not experience much of a burden.

Xiao Zhan’s face was full of excitement; he considered this a success.

But he was also extremely cautious, as this energy was very fragile, surrounded by the Death Aura within his body, constantly being devoured.

Xiao Zhan concentrated and controlled to maintain its existence.

Besides, Xiao Zhan was actually not satisfied with this energy.

Because it still contained impurities, these impurities were other attributes of energy that came with the Spirit Fruit and had fused during the assimilation process.

Xiao Zhan tried to clear these impurities but found that it would also clear the Yang Attribute energy.

A problem had arisen.

The energy wasn’t pure Yang Attribute and couldn’t be used; even if it could be used, the effects would be significantly reduced.

Xiao Zhan had to find a way to remove it.

But what kind of method could he use?

Just as Xiao Zhan was pondering deeply, he looked at the Tai Chi Diagram’s fish eyes; the Tai Chi Diagram was half black and half white, one Yin and one Yang, coexisting harmoniously, but not fused into one entity, each maintaining its independence.

Independence while preserving absolute balance.

Thinking of this, Xiao Zhan suddenly understood something; he tried using the Spatial Energy within his body to isolate that energy.

After isolating it, he no longer needed to divide his attention and concentrated on studying the energy.

With the assistance of his Perception, he quickly analyzed the mixed energies within, and then he attempted, once again, to use the spatial isolation method to segregate these mixed energies.

This process was extremely draining mentally, like a precise surgery; fortunately, Xiao Zhan, with his strong spiritual power and Perception’s assistance, was able to achieve this.

After successfully separating the mixed energies, Xiao Zhan controlled the Death Aura to devour these energies.

The devouring succeeded, thus leaving only the pure Yang Attribute energy.

Xiao Zhan breathed a sigh of relief and showed happiness on his weary face.

Although it was time-consuming and energy-draining, Xiao Zhan felt a surge of excitement and a strong sense of success when the pure Yang attribute energy emerged.

With this ball of energy.

Xiao Zhan could begin to cultivate the Taiji Hand, the Taiyang part of it.

But when he started practicing, that piercing pain in his meridians resurfaced.

The problem arose again; Xiao Zhan’s meridians were not suitable for this type of energy. It was rejected even when it stayed inside his body, let alone being circulated.

Xiao Zhan was speechless. Was the energy he had worked so hard to produce now useless?

He tried again, and it was still painful.

Why was this so difficult?

Just when Xiao Zhan was at a loss, Ye Youlong suddenly said, “Maybe the Space Power can be used to isolate the two types of energy, just like this Tai Chi Diagram.”

Hearing this, Xiao Zhan’s eyes lit up.

Yes, isn’t this Tai Chi Diagram all about mutual entanglement and separation?

Especially the twin fish eyes.

No sooner thought than done, Xiao Zhan immediately attempted to envelop the Yang attribute energy with Space Power and then circulated it.

Hiss.

Still a bit painful.

“Run the two energies together,” Ye Youlong reminded.

So Death Aura and this energy were circulated together, and indeed, the pain was reduced by more than half.

Xiao Zhan was delighted and ready to take advantage of the situation to practice the Taiji Hand.

However, Ye Youlong spoke again, “See if you can mix the two energies together, keeping them separate while mixing, just like Taiji.”

“Isn’t that a bit difficult?” Xiao Zhan said.

Isolating all energy while also maintaining a degree of mixture would be an extreme test for Xiao Zhan’s spiritual power and spatial attribute control.

But Xiao Zhan still gave it a try.

Energy dispersed, merged with Death Aura while maintaining independence!

Hmm, it was smoothly successful.

Xiao Zhan didn’t feel pain at all this time.

He immediately began practicing the Taiji Hand’s Taiyang part, unleashing a series of powerful and vigorous waves at the dummy target in front of him.

Bang bang!

The power was astonishing.

Xiao Zhan’s face showed surprise; it was a success.

He continued to practice but soon discovered that the energy was depleted, leaving only the extremely Yin Death Aura.

“The power of the Taiji Hand is indeed strong, but you can’t be expected to purify energy every time you fight, right?” Xiao Zhan sighed.

The purification process until the attack took a whole day.

Preparing for a fight for a whole day?

He would have died several times over already.

“Regardless, we have made some gains today. If we can understand what the Taoist said about Yin Yang Thought, we can generate both attributes of power ourselves without worrying about this problem anymore,” Ye Youlong said.

Xiao Zhan sighed.

Yin Yang Thought, understood on the surface, is about the transformation of Yin and Yang.

Xiao Zhan had figured out how to switch, but this required the guidance and assimilation of external forces.

He couldn’t transform Death Aura on his own without external assistance.

Not only was he unable to do it, but he also had no clue where to begin.
