Chapter 163: Soul Tempering

Sophia clearly remembers that when she was four years old, her father, like Lin Qian today, frantically absorbed the energy in a crystal nucleus, and her mother shared the impact of energy with him in order to save her husband, and finally both died. Sophia will never forget this scene for the rest of her life, and she still remembers the two bodies wrapped in golden light, which finally struggled to turn into nothingness.

Magicians themselves do not have any magic, some are only the strength of mental power, they only convert spiritual power into magical energy when casting spells, but their own physical body does not bear this energy. Once the mind is controlled by magic, these magicians will have a desire to forcibly improve their mental power, and this desire will lead them to try an extreme way, which is to absorb magical energy through their bodies and transform it into their own mental power.

It is feasible to convert spiritual power into magical energy, but it is absolutely not possible to do the opposite, otherwise there will be many more magic masters in this world, Lin Qian's current situation is perverse, and he wants to directly rely on the crystal nucleus to improve his spiritual power.

"I'm going to save Brother Lin!" Elena couldn't help but say, wanting to rush forward to interrupt Lin Qian's behavior.

"Don't go! He's delirious now, and if you forcibly interrupt him like this, he will only completely dispel his consciousness, and he won't even know you and me at that time. Sophia was helpless, and laid a golden barrier to protect Lin Qian from outside interference.

"Could it be that you just watched Brother Lin being eroded by magic?" Elena was a little emotional, but she didn't see the tears in Sophia's eyes at all.

"Only by finding someone to help him share this physical pain will he wake up safe and sound, but...... This is a ninth-level crystal nucleus, and no one's physical body can withstand this energy. Sophia now understood her mother's choice, and she sacrificed herself without hesitation in order to save her lover, even if the final result was not satisfactory.

Elena was stunned for a moment, the energy of the ninth-level crystal nucleus, this is the magical energy that a ninth-level magician can release, even if there are a hundred people and a thousand people, they can't resist it with their bodies alone.

"No, I'd rather Brother Lin didn't know me than watch him die, I'm going to stop this!" Elena broke free of Sophia's hands and blasted away at the golden barrier with the strongest energy she could unleash.

The enchantment shattered, but Sophia also hurriedly took action, imprisoned Elena, and persuaded her: "Don't be impulsive, Lin's magic is not strong, it absorbs very slowly, we still have enough time to think of a way, I think those magicians who have practiced for decades will always have a better way to solve it." ”

This magic collision alarmed many people in the guild building, and then many magicians flew to the top floor and saw the scene of Lin Qian walking away from the demons.

Sophia wiped away her tears, bowed to the magician behind her, and said loudly: "Now that my husband is in danger, I ask all the magicians to find a way to let my husband get out of danger safely." ”

"This ......" Everyone is at a loss, if they don't forcibly interrupt Lin Qian, I'm afraid there is really no good way.

Ysera, who had been sleeping in the warehouse, was also awakened, glanced at the top floor, rushed up with some uneasiness, and hurriedly asked Sophia what was going on when she saw all this.

In order to improve his magic strength, Lin went crazy for a while, and wanted to absorb the energy in the crystal nucleus into his body, but he couldn't bear this energy at all. ”

Ysera understood, and strode in.

"What are you going to do?" shouted Sophia.

Isera didn't pause in his steps at all, and replied: "Nonsense, of course I helped him absorb it together, and if I finish absorbing the energy, he will naturally be safe." ”

"But you ......"

"Don't forget, I'm a dragon, what can I do with this energy?" said Ysera confidently, then pressed her right hand to the other side of the crystal nucleus without hesitation.

Everyone suddenly realized that the dragon's physical ability was known to the world, unless the forbidden spell released by the magician of the Dacheng stage, the general magic hit them like a drizzle, although the energy of this ninth-level crystal nucleus was strong, it would not endanger the dragon's life.

As soon as Ysera made a move, the energy in this crystal nucleus was frantically absorbed by her, and in the blink of an eye, part of the crystal nucleus had become transparent, which meant that the energy in that place had been absorbed. Sophia and Elena glanced at each other and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it seemed that Lin Qian had gone mad because of Ysera, and this time it was up to her to save herself.

Time passed minute by minute, Lin Qian still had an evil smile on the corner of his mouth absorbing energy, his skin to his neck had cracked and bleeding, fortunately, it was only a skin injury, and it did not hurt the organs, but once the injury reached the brain, it would cause irreparable consequences. Seeing Lin Qian's appearance, Ysera was a little unbearable, and sped up the absorption, and a little blood gradually oozed from her clothes, and her entire arm began to tremble.

"Sister Long, are you alright?" asked Elena with a worried expression.

Ysera barely showed a smile, and pretended to be relaxed and said, "It's okay, it's just that my arm hurts a little, I'll change my hand again." With that, Ysera put her left hand up, but her right hand was not taken down. Although dragons can absorb the energy in it by swallowing the crystal nucleus, it is slowly absorbed through the digestive system, and cannot be absorbed directly and safely through the body, just like an oral medicine, if you have to make a solution and inject it intramuscularly, there may be problems.

Most of the crystal nucleus has already turned into a transparent color, as long as he persists a little longer, Lin Qian's level will be passed, but at this time, Lin Qian suddenly put his left hand up.

"What is he going to do? His left hand doesn't have the ability to absorb it. The magicians were puzzled.

Lin Qian's left hand did not absorb the energy, but slowly touched the back of Isera's hand and patted it gently, as if to comfort and gratitude.

"This is?" everyone couldn't understand it again, could Lin Qian still be conscious?

Ysera was also stunned for a moment when Lin Qian slapped her like this, she looked at Lin Qian's black eyes, and it happened that Lin Qian's eyes also looked over at this time, and she read Lin Qian's meaning in it - let go.

"He's telling me to let go? Doesn't he know I'm saving him? He must know that this is not the time to talk about feelings, and I'll absorb this energy and get a little hurt at most, but once I let go, he'll be gone. In that case, why let me go?"

Lin Qian's eyes were fixed on Ysera, conveying the same meaning, and his hand also tried to remove Isera's hands, but he didn't have much strength to do so.

Ysera's heart moved, thinking that Lin Qian should have his reasons for doing this, he has never been that impulsive person, and this time it seems that there is something strange about going crazy, it is said that with his ability, he will not fall into such a situation, after all, he is still only a beginner in magic.

Ysera hesitated to listen to Lin Qian once, until she saw Lin Qian's purple-black lips squirm, and the lip shape seemed to say, "Let go." Eventually, she withdrew her hands, and her two arms, which were already numb from pain, barely felt and hung under their shoulders.

"Sister Dragon, ...... you" Elena looked at the small amount of black energy that still remained in the crystal nucleus with some concern.

"Don't worry, he'll be fine," Ysera stood up, looked at Sophia with a puzzled expression, and said with a smile, "Sister Fei'er, help me heal my injuries." ”

Sophia mechanically replied "yes" and began to cast a spell to heal Ysera's two arms, but her gaze never took off Lin Qian.

It's strange to say that Lin Qian's injury didn't continue to develop up to his neck, and even after the previous blood stopped oozing, it actually coagulated into some blood scabs, but he was still absorbing the energy in the crystal nucleus, and the wound should not heal.

In fact, everyone didn't know that Lin Qian was just a dream just now. He dreamed of himself facing a dying Lipsus, frantically pouring dark magical energy into him, watching him creep through and struggling in helplessness. In the end, when Lipsus turned into a white bone, Lin Qian actually saw his own shadow in this white bone, and saw the little light that appeared in the sockets of the white bone, just like his own eyes.

At this time, Lin Qian suddenly realized that what he had been doing just now was just being blinded by his mind, frantically mutilating his body, and a trace of clarity rose from the bottom of his heart, until he saw Ysera sitting opposite him and suffering for him.

Magic erodes the body, but it can still be resolved through healing, but once it erodes the mind, you don't know what you've done, that's the most dangerous. However, if the mind triumphs over magic, everything becomes simpler.

Lin Qian strangely found that although the magical energy he absorbed was constantly destroying his body, it was also constantly stimulating his nerves with pain, making his mental power inexplicably tougher. Even Lin Qian had a feeling that the method of exercising soul toughness recorded in the three ancient magic books was probably similar to this kind of nerve stimulation, but it was a safe way to exercise the soul, and his own way almost killed him.

Lin Qian, who had recovered his god, could not completely control his body, especially the parts that had been eroded by magic, so he had to use his left hand to ease Isera's heart, while he silently guided this magical energy to stimulate other safe parts of his body, such as his limbs.

The constant pain made Lin Qian stay in a semi-comatose state, but Lin Qian felt that his soul was more solid, and even the capacity of his spiritual power was more than doubled, until the remaining three limbs were all in pain, Lin Qian took the initiative to stop, and there was still a small amount of energy in the crystal nucleus.

Seeing that Lin Qian took the initiative to let go, everyone was completely relieved, and immediately a light magician came over to check Lin Qian's injuries and treat them.

"Huh, strange! Why is there no injury except for the right arm? Where did this energy go?"
