Inside the cave, Fen Tian discovered a glowing blue liquid atop an ancient altar. "This is the Azure Essence, energy derived from the Azure Mystical Beast, a legendary creature that once protected this village," Yuan Shen explained.
Fen Tian felt a surge of energy course through his body as he drank the liquid. The excruciating pain that followed was unlike anything he'd ever felt. His broken meridians felt as if they were being shattered and rebuilt. It was a torment, but his will to rise again was stronger than the agony he endured.
For three days and nights, Fen Tian lay motionless, fighting against the pain. In the final moments, he felt new strength enter his body, repairing everything and giving him a power greater than before.
