Wang Qiang’s body seemed to have doubled in size, his skin constantly twisting and writhing.
It was as if something within him was about to burst forth from a chrysalis.
Moreover, his body now emitted a faint, somewhat eerie glow. Though dim, a closer look revealed it was woven from four colors: green, blue, red, and purple.
Most importantly, besides the glow, a similar aura of four colors—green, blue, red, and purple—enveloped Wang Qiang along with it.
Right now, it flickered upon his body like flames.
«Senior, what is happening to Wang Qiang?» «You said the poison was cured.»
Chu Feng was starting to panic. Even with his abilities, he couldn’t perceive what was truly happening to Wang Qiang.
«It wasn’t poison. I cured that long ago. What’s happening to Wang Qiang now is indeed strange.» «But really, you needn’t worry. This isn’t a bad thing; it’s a good one.» The Golden Crane True Immortal suddenly dropped his grave expression, a faint smile appearing on his face.
It seemed his earlier seriousness had been an act, a deliberate tease aimed at Chu Feng and Zhao Hong.
«A good thing?» Chu Feng and Zhao Hong were bewildered.
«It appears that a power dormant within Wang Qiang is about to awaken,» the Golden Crane True Immortal explained.
«A dormant power about to awaken?» Hearing this, shock flickered across Chu Feng and Zhao Hong’s faces before quickly turning to joy.
If a hidden power was awakening, it would most likely boost Wang Qiang’s strength. That was undoubtedly a good thing for him.
«But what kind of power is it? Could it be a Heaven Bestowed Body?» Chu Feng asked.
«It’s hard to say for certain. Some people have inherited bloodlines that were sealed, while others might have a Heaven Bestowed Body that was sealed.» «But regardless of which it is, it’s a good thing for Wang Qiang, so you really don’t need to worry too much,» the Golden Crane True Immortal said.
«Senior, was this seal placed by someone?» Chu Feng was very eager to know who might have sealed Wang Qiang’s cultivation.
«It’s difficult to say. It could be a man-made seal, or it could have sealed itself due to some kind of incident.» «Since it’s capable of awakening on its own, I suspect the power itself was likely sealed spontaneously.» «Otherwise, if it were a man-made seal, how could it be broken so easily?» the Golden Crane True Immortal reasoned.
«That makes perfect sense, Senior.» Hearing the Golden Crane True Immortal’s explanation, Chu Feng actually felt relieved.
If it wasn’t man-made, then at least it implied Wang Qiang didn’t have some powerful enemy targeting him.
But one couldn’t be absolute about anything. Even if it wasn’t man-made, it didn’t necessarily mean Wang Qiang had no enemies at all.
After all, his power had been sealed, which meant he must have encountered something in the past.
«My husband is truly amazing. His talent is already so formidable before his power has even awakened. Just imagine how incredible he’ll be once it fully awakens!» «Haha, I really want to see what this power of my husband’s, which is about to awaken, truly is.»
Zhao Hong was beaming with joy. As Wang Qiang’s lover, seeing her husband encounter such an opportunity naturally made her happier than anyone else.
*ROAR—* But right then, a furious roar suddenly erupted from within Wang Qiang’s body.
The roar was extremely strange, and upon hearing it, Chu Feng felt an involuntary chill run down his spine.
Because the sound was so terrifying, all three of them instinctively took two steps backward.
Chu Feng couldn’t help but glance at Zhao Hong and the Golden Crane True Immortal, only to find they had reacted just as he had.
If it were just Zhao Hong, that might be understandable, but even the Golden Crane True Immortal—a renowned figure in the Upper Realm—had changed his expression.
«Senior, what’s happening to my husband? Why is there a monstrous beast roaring inside him, and why is the sound so terrifying?» «Are you certain his power is about to awaken and not that some monster is sealed within his body?» Zhao Hong pressed nervously.
She had noticed that not only was the strange roar coming from Wang Qiang’s body, but the dark purple light emanating from him was also growing increasingly intense.
«Step back quickly!» With a sweep of his large sleeve, the Golden Crane True Immortal moved Chu Feng and Zhao Hong behind him.
