Chapter 50: Triple Quenching
Now what Dong Xiaolong has experienced is no longer a simple thunderbolt quenching body, if Dong Xiaolong's body is compared to a piece of dark iron, then his body is now in the stage of tempering.
At this time, the old man from Ember was also a little worried, this kind of cultivation method could no longer be described as risky, which was equivalent to playing with fire and self-immolation. If Dong Xiaolong fails, it means that the illusory world in which the old man is located will also dissipate. Even if the Yuan Shen of the Ember Old Man was already much stronger than the original, once Dong Xiaolong died, he would also disappear.
Yuan Ming also noticed Dong Xiaolong's movements, and naturally rushed over non-stop. Seeing Dong Xiaolong's state at this time, Yuan Ming's heart also hung up. It can be seen that Dong Xiaolong's spiritual power is greatly consumed, but in this regard, Yuan Ming can also help.
True Qi is released to a radius of 50 meters to prevent anyone from intruding. Yuan Ming sat cross-legged, and his body began to emit a pale golden light, and the light gradually converged on Dong Xiaolong's eyebrows. Feeling this majestic spiritual power, Dong Xiaolong's expression also became much more relaxed.
The dark clouds in the sky began to gradually turn gray, and the rain gradually weakened, which meant that the power of heaven and earth was weakening. Dong Xiaolong felt that the pressure above his head was weakening, but he still didn't dare to relax, and the power of thunder and lightning left in his body was not completely absorbed by him.
After another period of time, the sky stopped raining, the dark clouds began to dissipate, and Dong Xiaolong's quenching body also reached the final stage. But at this time, the thunder and lightning momentum of the purple thunder bead showed no signs of abating, and everyone knew that the final impact was coming.
Yuan Ming didn't dare to slack off, and while transmitting his spiritual power to Dong Xiaolong, he also transmitted his true qi to Dong Xiaolong, he knew that with his current physical state, Dong Xiaolong's hope of resisting this last wave of impact was very slim.
With the short gap after the power of heaven and earth dissipated, Dong Xiaolong immediately adjusted his physical state, leading the thunder fire in the meridians to the surface of his body, and the Tianyuan Jue operated to the extreme to absorb Yuan Ming's true qi, and recovered the injuries on his body as much as possible.
At this time, Lei Zhu was already ready to go, and Dong Xiaolong cheered up his spirit and prepared to meet this final baptism. With a roar, the power of thunder and lightning in the purple thunder bead poured into Dong Xiaolong's body like a tide, and for a while, a silver light appeared, and even the spiritual power transmitted by Yuan Ming to Dong Xiaolong was bounced away.
"The rest is up to you!" Yuan Ming stood up and whispered.
The process of thunder and lightning quenching was very painful, and Dong Xiaolong felt that every inch of skin in his body was as painful as a pinprick, and this feeling was very torturous. True Qi traveled in the meridians of Dong Xiaolong's body, gradually integrating into Dong Xiaolong's body with the power of thunder and lightning.
At first, this painful feeling made Dong Xiaolong miserable, but as his body absorbed the power of thunder and lightning, Dong Xiaolong found that this pain gradually weakened, which was a good sign for him.
Time passed like this, minute by minute, and the power of the thunder and lightning in the thunder bead continued to weaken, and the original dark purple thunder bead began to fade gradually. Of course, Dong Xiaolong didn't know what had happened to the thunder bead on his head, but Yuan Ming, who was standing on the side, could see it clearly.
As his body absorbed more and more thunder and lightning power, Dong Xiaolong's body's endurance began to increase. Gradually, Dong Xiaolong found that he no longer felt so painful, and the color of the thunder bead gradually became transparent, and the power of the thunder and lightning released from it began to weaken.
The next process is a matter of time, Yuan Ming saw that Dong Xiaolong's state was getting better and better, and his hanging heart finally let go, now he just needs to wait quietly for the end of this process.
After about half an hour, the purple thunder bead on the top of Dong Xiaolong's head no longer released the power of thunder and lightning, and its color had become as transparent as glass, and it fell directly from the air and smashed on Dong Xiaolong's head, shattering with a crisp sound.
Feeling that his head was smashed, Dong Xiaolong opened his eyes, and a little silver light flashed in his black pupils, and when Dong Xiaolong blinked again, the silver light dissipated.
Dong Xiaolong carefully inspected his body, and the previous wounds had all healed, replaced by tougher skin. Dong Xiaolong's meridians have also become thicker, and there is a faint electric current in the meridians, and the silver-white color of the meridians has become more obvious.
Feeling the changes in his body, Dong Xiaolong took a few deep breaths, and when he inadvertently lowered his head, he saw glass-like fragments on the ground, although Dong Xiaolong didn't know what was happening, but vaguely felt that something was missing.
Yuan Ming, who was standing not far away, smiled and said, "Your thunder bead energy has been exhausted and has been shattered. ”
"No!" Dong Xiaolong looked at the debris all over the ground and wanted to cry without tears, he had only reached the third thunder and lightning quenching body, and he had already used up the energy of the thunder bead.
"Looks like we've managed to reach the third lightning quenching. Yuan Ming said.
Dong Xiaolong sighed regretfully, and then said: "It is true that I have reached the third thunder and lightning quenching body, but the thunder bead is broken, how can I cultivate to the fourth thunder and lightning quenching body in the future?"
Yuan Ming walked over and knocked Dong Xiaolong's chest, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, I guess this thunder bead can only be used for the first three thunder and lightning quenching bodies, as for how to cultivate later, you need to check the content of the technique carefully, maybe there will be other tips." ”
"There's no way around it, that's all. Dong Xiaolong said with some dissatisfaction.
"Be happy, haven't you made a breakthrough!" Yuan Ming put his arm around Dong Xiaolong's shoulders and looked at him with a little smirk.
The sun had already set halfway, Dong Xiaolong remembered that Li Wei at home didn't know about going out yet, and touched his pocket, because he didn't bring his mobile phone when he went out in a hurry, but fortunately he didn't bring it, otherwise it probably wouldn't be able to be used now.
"Oh no, I have to go back quickly!" Dong Xiaolong exclaimed.
"What's wrong?" asked Yuan Ming, confused.
"I was in too much of a hurry when I left, and I didn't tell Li Wei about them. Dong Xiaolong was just about to leave, turned his head to look at Yuan Ming and said, "Let's go, let's go back and have dinner together." ”
After Yuan Ming nodded in agreement, Dong Xiaolong directly turned into a bolt of lightning. Reaching the third thunder and lightning quenching body, Dong Xiaolong's lightning lightning doubled his speed, and he had already walked out of a few hundred meters in the blink of an eye. Seeing this, the corners of Yuan Ming's mouth rose slightly, and he caught up with Dong Xiaolong in an instant when he mobilized the true qi in his body.
is worthy of being a peak powerhouse in the Yuan Shen Realm, even if Dong Xiaolong Lei Lightning cultivates to such a point, he can't get rid of Yuan Ming's pursuit at all. And Yuan Ming's spiritual power also spread at this time, surveying the situation around the two. When figures began to appear, Yuan Ming and Dong Xiaolong also began to slow down and restrain their true qi.
Breaking through the third quenching body, Dong Xiaolong also made a lot of movements, if it weren't for Yuan Ming who had been helping him protect the Fa, Dong Xiaolong would not have been so stable. The two walked quickly, and after a while, they returned to the vicinity of the school, and Li Wei, who was at home at this time, also found that Dong Xiaolong was missing.
"Where did the person go?Why didn't you hear him go out at all?" Li Wei looked at the empty bedroom, took out her mobile phone and called Dong Xiaolong, and Dong Xiaolong's mobile phone rang as soon as she got through the house. "This guy doesn't have a mobile phone, it's really worry-free. ”
Just as Li Wei was frowning, there was a knock at the door. Li Wei walked to the door and glanced at the door mirror, and it was Dong Xiaolong, who was not worrying, and Yuan Ming, who was standing next to him, who knocked on the door.
Opening the door, Li Wei saw that Dong Xiaolong's clothes had become a little yellow, and asked with a puzzled expression, "Where have you been?"
"I suddenly remembered that there were some things that I hadn't done, so I went out to do something, and by the way, I called Yuanming over for dinner. Dong Xiaolong casually made up a reason, and I don't know if Li Wei will believe it.
"It's raining so hard and you're still running out, and you don't have your mobile phone or umbrella with you! Although Li Wei complained about Dong Xiaolong, it was only because she was worried about him.
Dong Xiaolong only noticed that his clothes had become wrinkled and yellow when he entered the door, which should be caused by the rain and thunder and lightning, and there were blood stains from Dong Xiaolong's wound on it, but it was not obvious after being washed by the rain.
After taking a shower and changing clothes, Dong Xiaolong went to the kitchen to help Li Wei prepare dinner. Xiaoqing came out of the room, rubbing her eyes as she walked, obviously just waking up.
When Yuan Ming saw Xiaoqing come out, he instantly started chatting with Xiaoqing as if he had been doping. Dong Xiaolong, who was in the kitchen, glanced at the two of them and couldn't help but smile.
Li Wei suddenly put down the things in her hand, looked at Dong Xiaolong very seriously, and then stared into his eyes and asked, "What are you doing?"
Being stared at like this by Li Wei, Dong Xiaolong's expression also became nervous, and he said hesitantly: "I just suddenly remembered that some things were not done well, so I went to do it, what's wrong?"
Li Wei didn't speak, she kept looking into Dong Xiaolong's eyes, and only after a few seconds did she speak: "Remember to bring your mobile phone when you go out in the future, tell me before you go out, or leave a note." ”
Dong Xiaolong was a little dazed by Li Wei's words, but nodded without hesitation.
"Don't worry me too much!" When he said this, Li Wei's expression became very gentle, Dong Xiaolong only felt that there was an inexplicable warmth in his heart, and his originally dull eyes became much softer.
"I remembered!" Dong Xiaolong said softly.
Li Wei smiled faintly, and then started to get busy again.
Dong Xiaolong was also asking himself in his heart: Why do you feel an inexplicable warmth? Is this the so-called feeling of liking?
Li Wei didn't know that her words really touched Dong Xiaolong somewhere in his heart.
The dinner was still very rich, and under Xiaoqing's sweep, there was nothing left. Dong Xiaolong was very happy today, not only because he had successfully broken through the third thunderbolt quenching body, but also because of the warmth he felt in his heart, a kind of warmth that he couldn't tell why.
