Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 328 Absorption Mutation

Just as Li Zhi was daydreaming, Situ Han on the side had already walked straight towards the pond full of vitality.

He walked steadily and without any hesitation, and soon stepped into the pond.

Situ Han stood in the pond and turned to Li Zhi, urging him, "Come on, there is a time limit for each time you come in to use the vitality pool, don't waste this time!"

When Li Zhi heard Situ Han's urging, he came to his senses and responded quickly. Not daring to delay any longer, he walked quickly to the edge of the pond and carefully got into it.

As soon as he came down, Li Zhi was stunned. When he was looking at it from above, he felt that the vitality of this pond was like a milky white liquid.

But when he actually went down into the pond and was in it, he suddenly discovered that the life force in it was not in the liquid form as he had thought before, but was more like a gas.

The milky white vitality seemed to turn into wisps of mist, floating slowly in the pond, lingering around him, like a group of lively elves.

Li Zhi clearly felt that the surging vitality transformed into milky white mist, which was continuously attached to his body.

Even though he hadn't tried to absorb it yet, he could keenly feel that the vitality seemed to have its own consciousness and was drilling into his body little by little.

Wherever the vital mist passed, it seemed as if every pore of the body was cheering and leaping for joy, and the whole person felt warm and indescribably comfortable.

Li Zhi knew that time was extremely precious at this moment and the opportunity was rare. If he missed it, he would not know when he would have such an opportunity again.

So, he didn't say any more nonsense, and quickly held his breath and concentrated, directly activating the five internal organs' meridians in his body, and began to concentrate and frantically absorb the vitality of this place every second.

There was a faint halo of light around him, which flickered with his breathing, as if it was in some mysterious response to the vitality of the pond.

Li Zhiping concentrated his mind and slowly guided the milky white mist-like vitality around him, allowing it to enter his body bit by bit.

This was not the first time that he had come into contact with and refined something that contained tremendous vitality. Past experiences had taught him that this vitality, which seemed harmless and full of benefits, was actually potentially dangerous.

After all, such surging vitality is like a surging tide. If it is not properly guided in advance, once it is allowed to run rampant in the body, the consequences will be unimaginable.

By then, not to mention using them to repair one's damaged vitality, I'm afraid even one's own life might be lost.

Li Zhi didn't want to do something stupid and counterproductive because of a momentary negligence.

So he was extremely cautious at this moment, controlling and guiding the strands of vitality into his body carefully.

As time went by, Li Zhi gradually felt as if his whole body was filled with this vitality, and a warm and powerful feeling filled his whole body.

However, Li Zhi knew very well that this was just an illusion.

Although he had successfully absorbed these vitality into his body, in fact, they had not yet been truly refined.

The vitality in his body now is just like the vitality in the pond in front of him. They are just temporarily gathered together. If left alone, they will eventually dissipate with the passage of time. They will not be able to truly play the role of replenishing his vitality.

However, for Li Zhi, this is just the first step. The next step is the crucial refining process.

Li Zhi took a deep breath and slowly calmed his slightly nervous mood.

Then concentrate your mind and begin to mobilize the Heart Fire, Lung Metal, and Spleen Earth in your body, making them work at the same time.

In an instant, it seemed as if there was an invisible force pulling Li Zhi's body. The vitality that was originally floating in the tendons and veins began to flow in an orderly manner among the three, gradually forming an inverted triangle path.

The scene was quite magical. The vitality circulated back and forth along this unique path. With each circulation, strands of vitality would be successfully absorbed and refined by Li Zhi, transformed into power that truly belonged to him and integrated into his flesh, blood and meridians.

But just when Li Zhi thought that everything was going according to plan and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, an accident suddenly happened.

The Liver Wood, located below the Lung Metal, suddenly shook without any warning.

Then, what was even more unexpected was that the Liver Wood actually began to move uncontrollably and autonomously, like a hungry beast, and began to frantically plunder the life around it. It looked so aggressive, as if it wanted to take all the life within its reach for itself.

Due to the interference of Liver Wood, the originally stable and orderly inverted triangle path was instantly destroyed.

Li Zhi only felt a chaos in his body. The heart fire, lung metal, spleen earth, which had been performing their respective functions and operating in an orderly manner, were affected by the liver wood. In an instant, they seemed to have lost control and began to fight each other, refusing to give in, all of them frantically snatching the vitality that had been hard to gather in Li Zhi's body.

They were like a group of people fighting for treasure, no one was willing to give in, and the whole situation became chaotic.

As these four organs worked so crazily, the vitality in Li Zhi's body, which was originally sufficient, soon became insufficient.

Li Zhi only felt a sense of emptiness in his body, as if strength was rapidly draining away from his body. His heart tightened, knowing that if he allowed this situation to continue, all his previous efforts would be wasted, and he might even suffer backlash.

Helplessly, Li Zhi could only grit his teeth, endure the discomfort of his body, concentrate his energy again, and continue to absorb the endless vitality around him, so as to supply the absorption and refining of the four organs in his body, trying to stabilize the situation again and restore the breath in his body to a normal state.

However, this is easier said than done. Li Zhi was under tremendous pressure at the moment. Beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead and kept sliding down his cheeks. However, he had no time to wipe them off. All his attention was focused on dealing with the chaotic situation in his body.

As Li Zhi absorbed vitality faster and faster, the halo around him became brighter and brighter, and the speed of his breath circulation became more and more rapid. This abnormality soon attracted Situ Han's attention.

Situ Han was originally immersed in absorbing vitality and recuperating himself. After sensing the unusual movements from Li Zhi, he couldn't help but open his eyes slightly and looked sideways in the direction of Li Zhi.

Li Zhi was seen with his eyes tightly closed, his brows slightly wrinkled and sometimes relaxed, the expression on his face constantly changing with the flow of breath.

Situ Han was secretly surprised. Although he knew that this vitality pool was extremely beneficial to humans, this was the first time he had seen such obvious abnormalities when Li Zhi was absorbing it.

Situ Han couldn't help but feel a little curious, but also a little worried, wondering if Li Zhi would absorb too much and something might go wrong with his body.

After all, although this vitality is good, if it exceeds the body's endurance limit, it may backfire.

Thinking of this, Situ Han stopped absorbing vitality and slowly walked towards Li Zhi.
