My Apprentice Is Too Diligent

Chapter 88: The Curtain Rises (Please Subscribe)

A thunderous explosion resounded abruptly, causing a sudden upheaval.

The water in front of Chen Wuji condensed into a dense mass and rushed forward in the next instant, forcefully creating a vacuum passage without water, heading straight towards the central area of the underwater space.

Amidst the countless surging water splashes outside the passage, it seemed as if thunder clashed with volcanic fire, releasing a terrifying destructive force that destroyed the water vortex and shattered the mixture in the underwater space.

The vast central area became chaotic and turbid for a moment, with the water churning and bubbles rising one after another.

Slowly, slowly, the bubbles burst and the water ceased to surge, transforming from turbid to clear.

Seeing this scene, Chen Wuji decisively turned around and swam upwards through the passage he came from.

He swam for less than ten zhang.

Buzz~~~

An invisible wave suddenly emanated from the bottom, sweeping past Chen Wuji and rushing towards the surface along the passage.

Boom!

After the wave passed, a compressed energy burst erupted from directly below, enveloping and propelling Chen Wuji, allowing him to speedily ascend without the need to swim.

In the blink of an eye, he sprinted through the one hundred and fifty zhang passage and returned beneath the densely packed cavern.

Controlling his body, he chose an entrance to a cavern and entered it.

The turbulent currents in the cavern were mainly flowing downwards.

At this moment, the swirling water flowed upwards.

Chen Wuji hardly exerted any effort as he followed the upward current, passing through one cavern after another, one passage after another, easily leaving the underwater cavern and returning to the riverbed.

At this time, the riverbed became turbid and chaotic under the stirring of swarming energy.

The entire crescent bay section of the river was boiling, roaring, cheering, and shouting!

Boom~

Chen Wuji found the right direction, erupted with True Qi, and propelled his body towards the upstream.

Along the way, countless large and small fish were shattered and sent flying.

Shuttling through the riotous river water, he sprinted a distance, adjusted his direction, and headed straight for the river surface.

Splash!

Water splashed and scattered in mid-air.

Chen Wuji left the river surface, slightly erupted with True Qi, and propelled his body to rush onto the shore.

Swoosh swoosh~

His figure flickered, moving far away from the riverbank and heading straight for the mountaintop.

Arriving at the highest point, Chen Wuji stopped and surveyed his surroundings.

Within his field of vision, the surface of the White Water River was completely exploding.

It seemed as if an enraged dragon was constantly stirring and roaring at the riverbed, causing towering waves to surge and crash against both banks.

Rumble rumble~

The ground beneath his feet trembled.

Disturbing the mountains and forests on both sides of the White Water River, countless birds took flight and filled the sky.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

The wind began to swirl.

The moist breeze instantly turned into a gale, blowing across the river surface and causing the splashing waves to grow higher and larger.

On the riverbank, sand, dust, leaves, and grass pieces danced in the air with this gust of strong wind.

Above the crescent bay, the clusters of clouds shattered and dissipated.

But in the next instant, the water vapor from all directions suddenly converged.

Amidst the howling gale, sweeping across the sky and the ground, and rushing into every corner, it was pushed upwards by a tremendous invisible force, spreading in all directions.

Boom!

Accompanied by a resounding tremor that shook the sky.

Splash splash~

In the high sky, large raindrops the size of fists poured down.

The boiling White Water River began to calm down and stop roaring in the rain curtain, quickly returning to tranquility.

In the mountains and forests on both sides of the strait, flowers, plants, and trees sway in celebration and cheerfulness.

The continuous rain curtain starts from Crescent Bay and spreads outward.

One kilometer, five kilometers, ten kilometers, twenty kilometers...

In just three breaths, the sky within a radius of one hundred miles centered around Crescent Bay is covered by rainwater.

...

On the official road leading to the county town, a fully armed army is marching forward.

When the rain curtain reaches them, the leader riding at the front suddenly raises his hand, pulls the reins, and quickly stops.

The leader, with a strong physique, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a square face, looks up at the sky. His expression quickly changes from confusion to shock.

"How... how is this possible?"

Beside the leader, a man on horseback with the same expression stares wide-eyed and exclaims, "The energy of heaven and earth! The energy of White Water County is actually recovering rapidly!"

"This is truly unbelievable." Behind the man, a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard catches the rainwater in his hand. His face is filled with incredulity as he exclaims, "The energy of heaven and earth contained in this rainwater is even higher than that in our military camp."

"The recently recovered energy of heaven and earth is naturally higher." The man on horseback takes a deep breath and then looks at the leader. "General, with the recovery of the energy of heaven and earth in White Water County, the situation in the county will become very complicated. Should we request another team to come over?"

"We can." The leader speaks in a low voice. "Immediately send someone back to report to the governor that the energy of heaven and earth in White Water County has recovered!"

"Yes!"

...

In a mansion at the foot of a mountain in the north of White Water County.

Tang Xianzong, who has just arrived in White Water from another mansion, hears the commotion and comes out of his room. Bathed in the rain, he senses the active energy of heaven and earth in the air, causing his face to suddenly change.

"What's going on?"

"How did the energy of heaven and earth recover?"

"What are the people stationed at Crescent Bay doing? What about Wu Qian? How is he working!?"

Tang Xianzong roars, facing the pouring rain, opening his hands in a frenzy, shouting in anger and unwillingness.

"No, it shouldn't be like this, it's not supposed to be like this!!"

...

"The energy of heaven and earth? This is the energy of heaven and earth? Where did it come from!?"

"There is the energy of heaven and earth in the rainwater! No, there is the energy of heaven and earth in the air! Hahaha, White Water County also has the energy of heaven and earth now!"

"What's going on? Everything was fine, how did the energy of heaven and earth suddenly recover?"

"Who cares, anyway, our cultivation will no longer be limited to the Eighth Layer of Body Refining! Ninth Layer of Body Refining, True Qi Realm! Here I come! Hahaha..."

...

Inside and outside White Water County, almost all Martial Masters who have reached the Eighth Layer of Body Refining and the Nurturing Spirit stage are excitedly rushing into the rain curtain, standing in the rain, laughing or cheering.

With the recovery of the energy of heaven and earth, their cultivation will no longer be limited to their current realm.

...

On the mountaintop.

Chen Wuji senses the energy of heaven and earth in the surrounding world, which is constantly rising. His eyes show neither sadness nor joy.

With the recovery of the energy of heaven and earth, the strength of Martial Masters can indeed continue to improve.

In the mountains and forests, rare treasures will also be born frequently.

However.

Accompanying this, the monsters in the mountains and waters will also be born.

This time, it will no longer be monsters that have not reached a certain stage, but truly terrifying creatures.

And ghosts!

The real ghost race will also move closer and appear in White Water.

With the recovery of the energy of heaven and earth.

Opportunities increase, but dangers also increase!

"Fortunately, I have advanced my overall strength ahead of time."

Chen Wuji murmurs in a low voice.

After taking another look at the calm White Water River, he turns around, taps his toes, and rushes down the mountaintop, heading towards Azure Ox Mountain.

Next, various formidable creatures will appear in White Water, and Hidden Dragon Gate will face even more challenges...
