"Qin!"
With a loud "thud," a sound like metal striking stone flashed by amidst the torrential rain, followed by the image of an antelope being sent flying.
The massive, dark deer shadow showed no interest in the antelope's body; it sped away into the rain, soon spotting another animal running wildly in the downpour.
In the heavy rain, the dense grass was flattened by the antelope's body. The sharp black horns on its head were no longer visible, only a short horn root remained. The sharp horns were blown away and disappeared into the grass in the distance.
"Drip drip drip drip drip..." The raindrops fell in increasing density, wetting the flowers, grass and trees under the sky.
The trees in the forest seemed to have suddenly grown nerves; their stems, roots, and branches twitched constantly, their leaves rustled, and their crowns and trunks grew larger and taller, growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In the damp, muddy soil, the grass seeds that had been buried by snow were moistened by the rain. These seeds had little vitality left and would hardly sprout even when spring arrived.
But now, after absorbing a lot of rainwater, these seeds have begun to swell rapidly. The shriveled and withered seeds have become plump and have begun to sprout, with tender green shoots slowly breaking through the soil.
The tender shoots that broke through the soil quickly grew branches and leaves, receiving the irrigation and nourishment of the torrential rain. They grew rapidly, like a fast-forwarded scene, and in just a few breaths, they became tall and lush plants.
On the grassland, the already lush wild grass has become even more vibrant green, full of vitality, growing wildly, with new shoots sprouting from its roots one after another.
Under this heavy rain, almost all the muddy areas were slowly covered by grass and trees, and the vegetation grew wildly, gradually covering the newly turned land that had not yet turned green after the earthquake!
If you look down from high above, you can see with the naked eye that the land, which was originally a patchwork of green and brown, is now being filled with green, connecting the mountains and forests that were once separated by barren land, and all the land is now covered in green.
Unfortunately, under the pitch-black night, creatures could only see the torrential rain and the changes around them, but they could not perceive that this was a change in the entire world.
The changes on the land are only one aspect. The first drop of rain is like a key, activating the entire new planet. In addition to changes on the surface, the underground magnetic field and the planet's laws are also changing once again.
At the same time, one after another colorless and formless pillars of spiritual energy erupted from the ground, piercing the sky. The pillars of spiritual energy dispersed the heavy rain, just like the erupting columns of air, spreading out streams of spiritual energy.
The eruption of spiritual energy pillars did not last long, lasting only about half an hour before subsiding, but the spiritual energy emitted instantly doubled the concentration of spiritual energy in the entire world.
Although the dozen or so ley lines that had spewed out pillars of spiritual energy had calmed down, a faint but continuous stream of spiritual energy still emanated from them.
The increase in spiritual energy was not yet obvious, but all the plants that were drenched by the heavy rain were growing wildly, and the animals ravaged by the rain were venting their violent fighting spirit.
After noticing the unusual rain, most of the people in the city ruins took refuge in their homes.
Avoiding risks is an instinct for almost all living beings. After all, even spirit beasts like Lin Qian wouldn't dare to be soaked in such strange rain for long, let alone humans.
However, everything in this world has two sides; there are cautious things, and naturally, there are also crazy ones.
Listening to the incessant sound of the rain, Amo carried a bucket filled with the torrential downpour and tried to put his left hand into the bucket.
Suddenly, a wisp of restless energy invaded his body, intertwining with his spiritual power. He focused his mind, circulated his spiritual power, and refined it with all his might.
This was repeated more than ten times until the bucket of rainwater no longer contained any strange energy, and Amo's spiritual power had increased somewhat, but his complexion was extremely poor.
When refining energy, those restless auras will be stripped away. Although they can be expelled from the body with spiritual power, some will still remain. As they accumulate, these wisps of restlessness will condense into threads, entangle and torment one's mind.
"Amo, let's not take the risk. Although this energy is enormous, it's too difficult to refine, and besides..."
Looking at Amo, whose face was pale and devoid of any color, Axu was somewhat worried. Although becoming stronger was important, he felt that there was no need to take risks at this time.
We don't know what kind of energy this rainwater contains, nor what potential dangers it might pose. If we rashly absorb and refine it, wouldn't it be even worse if it left behind hidden dangers?
Amo rested for a while. He understood Axu's caution and worries, but he did not intend to stop there.
He had already tested the collected rainwater. Although it could be refined into spiritual energy, the benefits were minimal, and the restless aura remained. In this case, the disadvantages outweighed the advantages.
But he had a vague feeling that if he allowed a larger amount of energy to enter his body, he would definitely be able to successfully break through the acupoints!
However, this is on the premise that one must suppress the restless aura and be able to control those energies with spiritual power; otherwise, one will only be attacked and afflicted by those violent energies, losing one's rationality.
"I'm going out to try again. If anything unexpected happens, I won't hold back."
Ah Xu looked at him, opened his mouth, and looked into his deep eyes, but couldn't say anything.
He knew that once Amer made up his mind, he wouldn't listen to advice.
After giving his instructions, Amo pushed open the door and walked out without hesitation. Outside, it was pouring rain, with wind and rain raging.
As soon as he stepped out the door, the rain poured down on him without mercy. Amo remained unmoved, wearing a simple and ordinary raincoat, and quietly walked to the end of the corridor.
Ordinary raincoats can barely cover the body in such heavy rain; the thin hoods have long been blown open, offering no protection against the onslaught of the gale.
The cold rain soaked the young man's hair, and slowly drenched his pale face. Sensing the energy in the rain invading him, Amo stepped into the rain...
(It's not that the author doesn't want to write more, it's just that I'm experiencing writer's block and haven't decided what kind of disaster to write about this time...)
