From a loser to an immortal sage

Chapter 244 New Realm of Special Training: Xiao Yao's Predicament

Before Wen Chen's voice had even faded, Elder Yan's booming voice echoed throughout the training ground: "Congratulations, Xiao Yao, on successfully defeating the Guardian! But the path of cultivation is endless. Next, you will face new challenges!" He paused, his gaze sweeping over each of us, finally settling on me, his eyes sharp as knives, "The new special training environment—Spirit Wind Valley—is now open!"

Spirit Wind Valley?

My heart skipped a beat, and the joy that had been welling up inside me was instantly extinguished as if doused with a bucket of ice water, vanishing without a trace.

I've seen this name in ancient books. It describes a valley filled with violent spiritual energy storms, which is said to be a place even Golden Core cultivators dare not easily set foot in.

The cheers around them gradually faded, replaced by tense whispers.

Shuangyue glanced at me with concern, then gently took my hand. Her palm was a little cold, conveying her nervousness.

Even the usually enthusiastic Senior Brother Xuanfeng pursed his lips and frowned.

An indescribable sense of oppression enveloped the entire training ground, as if the air itself had frozen.

I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down, but my heart was pounding uncontrollably.

With Elder Yan's command, the teleportation array leading to Spirit Wind Valley was activated. A dazzling white light flashed, and we were transported to a completely new world.

The howling wind was as piercing as the wailing of ghosts and wolves, mixed with the sharp sound of gravel colliding, rushing towards us.

As soon as I landed, I was swept up by a powerful storm of spiritual energy, and my body was thrown into the air uncontrollably.

The violent spiritual energy was like countless tiny blades, cutting my skin mercilessly, and waves of intense pain instantly spread throughout my body.

I closed my eyes tightly, the wind howling in my ears, and my body felt as if it were being torn apart.

Fear overwhelmed me like a tidal wave...

"Xiao Yao!" An anxious voice came from afar, but I couldn't tell who it was.

I tried to steady myself, but it was no use.

The spiritual energy in this Spirit Wind Valley is far more violent than I imagined.

I feel like a fallen leaf, swaying precariously in this gale, ready to be torn to pieces at any moment.

No, I can't give up like this!

I gritted my teeth and tried my best to circulate the spiritual energy in my body to resist the raging storm.

However, this spiritual energy was like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins, completely beyond my control...

Wait, this spiritual energy...

seem……

"Xiao Yao! Grab my hand!"

The spiritual energy in the storm was like a wild horse, extremely violent, running rampant within my body.

I tried to guide this spiritual energy and make it flow along my meridians, but every effort was like a stone sinking into the sea, with no effect whatsoever.

The spiritual energy surged wildly through my body, crashing against my dantian and tearing at my meridians. Pain surged like a tidal wave, almost overwhelming me.

My body swayed precariously in the gale, and every time I tried to regain my footing, I was mercilessly tossed aside.

The wind howled, carrying sharp pebbles that cut my skin like countless tiny blades.

Each wound stung, as if countless ants were gnawing at my flesh.

I closed my eyes tightly, trying to hold back the tears, but they still streamed down my cheeks, mingling with blood and blurring my vision.

Everything around me seemed to be spinning, and I felt as if I were standing on the edge of the world, about to be swept away by a gale at any moment.

The impact of spiritual energy made it hard for me to breathe; every breath felt like being devoured by flames, scorching my lungs.

I felt myself losing power little by little, and the spiritual power in my hands became increasingly difficult to control. Despair was like an abyss in the dark night, slowly eroding my will.

"I can't give up, I can't give up..." I murmured to myself, but my voice grew weaker and weaker.

Every part of my body was protesting; pain, exhaustion, and despair intertwined, pushing me to the brink of collapse.

I desperately circulated the spiritual energy within my body, trying to find a breakthrough, but every effort vanished like a bubble.

Just then, a familiar voice reached my ears through the raging wind: "Xiao Yao! Grab my hand!"

I struggled to open my eyes, and through my blurry vision, I saw a figure reaching out to me in the storm; that figure was firm and warm.

I stretched out my hand desperately, trying to grasp that last straw, but the force of the gale made it almost impossible for me to move.

"Xiao Yao, hurry!" The voice came again, filled with endless encouragement and determination.

I took a deep breath, gritted my teeth, and finally, at the last moment, grasped that warm hand.

A warm hand gripped mine tightly, and a warm current flowed up my arm and through my body, dispelling the chill and gradually clearing my mind.

I looked up and saw Shuangyue's anxious face. The worry and concern in her eyes warmed my heart.

"Xiao Yao, are you alright?" Shuangyue's voice was torn apart by the wind, but the way she held my hand tightly gave me immense strength.

I shook my head, trying to steady myself, and scanned my surroundings.

The wind howled, sand and stones flew everywhere, and everyone else was blown about by the sudden storm. Some people were even blown out of the valley.

Fear and despair spread across everyone's faces, as if the end of the world was about to arrive.

"We must find a way to get out of here!" Senior Brother Xuanfeng's voice came from afar. He struggled to steady himself and shouted loudly at us.

leave?

It's easier said than done!

The violent spiritual energy in this Spirit Wind Valley far exceeded my imagination. We were like fallen leaves in a storm, and could be torn apart at any moment.

and many more……

I suddenly realized that this violent spiritual power was not entirely without a trace.

At the eye of the storm, there seemed to be a powerful source of spiritual energy, like a giant vortex, drawing in the surrounding spiritual energy and creating this terrifying storm.

A crazy idea suddenly popped into my head: if I could control this source of spiritual energy, could I control the entire storm?

I took a deep breath and looked at Shuangyue. "Shuangyue, trust me!"

Shuangyue paused for a moment, then nodded heavily.

I let go of Shuangyue's hand and walked forward step by step, facing the direction of the storm.

"Xiao Yao, you've gone mad!" Senior Brother Xuanfeng's voice was filled with terror.

I ignored him and kept walking forward.

The wind was tearing at my clothes and stinging my face, but I felt no fear; instead, I felt a strange excitement.

I walked step by step toward the eye of the storm. The surrounding spiritual energy became more and more violent, and I felt as if my body was about to be torn apart.

Close, closer!

I finally saw the eye of the storm, a huge vortex radiating a dazzling light, into which the surrounding spiritual energy surged wildly, forming this terrifying storm.

I took a deep breath, mobilized all my spiritual power, and rushed towards the center of the storm.

"Xiao Yao!" Shuangyue's terrified cry rang in her ears.

I closed my eyes, sensing the raging spiritual energy around me, and silently recited the incantation in my mind.

Suddenly, I felt like I had entered a wonderful realm.

The surrounding gale disappeared, replaced by tranquility.

I saw countless points of spiritual energy, which danced around me like fireflies.

I reached out and gently touched a point of light, and a powerful surge of spiritual energy instantly flowed into my body.

I opened my eyes. "It's done!"

The raging spiritual energy, which was originally rampant like a wild horse, is now as docile as a flock of sheep, slowly flowing into my dantian under my guidance.

I felt an unprecedented power surging within me, filling every part of my body.

My meridians were widened, my dantian was expanded, and my body seemed to become a bottomless pit, greedily absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.

The wind was still howling, but I was no longer afraid.

I stood firmly in the eye of the storm, feeling its immense power, my heart filled with indescribable excitement and joy.

I spread my arms wide, letting the wind blow through my long hair, my clothes fluttering, like a fairy dancing in the air.

"She...she actually controlled the storm!" Frostmoon's voice was filled with disbelief.

I turned to look at Shuangyue, a confident smile playing on my lips.

The worry that had been in Shuangyue's eyes had vanished, replaced by admiration and joy.

She gave me a thumbs up, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Xiao Yao, you are truly amazing!" Senior Brother Xuanfeng's voice came from afar, his face filled with shock and admiration, as if he had witnessed something incredible.

I smiled slightly, closed my eyes again, and focused intently on absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.

This Spirit Wind Valley, which was originally a dangerous place that inspired fear in people, has now become my treasured cultivation ground.

I feel my cultivation level is improving rapidly, and the bottleneck that was previously stagnant is now beginning to loosen.

I was so immersed in this wonderful state that I forgot about time and everything around me.

My body felt as if it had become one with the raging storm; I was the storm, and the storm was me.

I don't know how much time passed before I slowly opened my eyes, my eyes gleaming with a sharp light.

I felt my power increase several times over. The spiritual power that was previously difficult to control was now as easy as my own arm.

I stretched out my hand and gently waved it. A powerful storm of spiritual energy shot out from my fingertips, instantly shattering a boulder in the distance.

"boom!"

The sound of the boulder shattering echoed through the valley, waking those nearby.

They all looked at me.

I smiled slightly, feeling a great sense of accomplishment.

This Spirit Wind Valley not only did not become an obstacle for me, but it also became an aid to me.

I closed my eyes again, feeling the surging spiritual energy within my body, and a bold idea suddenly welled up in my mind.

"Perhaps, I can..." I murmured to myself.

"Xiao Yao, what are you saying?" Shuangyue's voice rang in my ears.

I opened my eyes, looked at Shuangyue, and a mysterious smile appeared on my lips.

"Frosty Moon, do you believe in miracles?"
