After the lady left, the clinic closed early for the day.
Gu Shen returned home, fed Da Ju, but Chu Ling still hadn't come online.
He alone initiated the connection to the Deep Sea.
This time, just as Gu Shen predicted, after summoning Chi Huo in reality, the first-layer trial in the deep water area about "sustaining equilibrium" posed no difficulty whatsoever.
Perhaps it was because his spiritual power had grown several times stronger that the Spirit Space was exceptionally stable; the Chi Huo, which had struggled even to maintain its form, now frolicked like a wave, blooming and retracting in his palm, changing patterns joyously.
Thanks to the visit from the Changjiu Foundation and Qu Shui's life-and-death assassination... Summoning Chi Huo and sustaining equilibrium had become as simple as eating and drinking for Gu Shen.
It wasn't so much a case of gradual accumulation and sudden breakthrough, but rather a transformation born from destruction and creation.
