Chapter 156: Replenishing Crystals and Healing Wounds.
Qiu Li resorted to coercion and enticement, ultimately paying the price of a third-tier lightning-based talisman-making technique and a high-quality third-tier healing pill.
He obtained the cultivation method of Qingfeng Escape from Feng Qingjun in a way that was half-buying and half-stealing.
She acquired someone else's secret skills so easily, which ultimately comes down to the vast difference in their status. Even if Feng Qingjun's third-tier talisman master came here, he wouldn't dare to say anything.
After obtaining the Azure Wind Escape Technique, Qiu Li went to a corner to study it in seclusion.
Given the current state of the third level of the Inheritance Hall, it's impossible to continue exploring the seventh Thunder Lion in the short term.
She now needs to hurry up and figure out Chen Yi's Wind and Thunder Escape technique so that she will have a powerful means of survival and rescue when the thunder tide appears.
However, as she began to seriously study the Azure Wind Escape Technique, her brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
"How can this thing be used in conjunction with Thunder Step?"
She couldn't understand how such a complex Azure Wind Escape technique could be combined with the equally complex Thunder Step technique, and how an even more complex Thunder Crystal Array could be added in between.
What is that cook Chen Yi doing all day instead of exploring the secret realm?!
Qiu Li prided himself on his exceptional talent, especially in the cultivation of the Thunder Spirit, where he was considered among the top of the millions of middle-aged cultivators in the Central Continent.
But right now, they're stumped.
She glanced at the other corner, in the direction of Chen Yi's horse cage, and let out a long sigh.
"No, I have to handle this myself. I can't ask him for help over something like this. Otherwise, what will become of my reputation as a prodigy of Zhongzhou?"
Qiu Li gritted her teeth and persevered, desperately trying to figure it out herself.
On the other side,
In the corner, Chen Yi quickly disassembled the dog cage and reassembled the half-ruined horse cage.
At the same time, coupled with his understanding of the Thunder Spirit Rune Array during this period,
After rearranging the stable, this time the space was reduced by about a third, but it was still enough for two people to lie down in. It would be a bit cramped for three people to sit in.
However, Chen Yi upgraded the defensive strength of the mare to the level of a sixty-three-thunder crystal array.
It was comparable to the strength of his own private dog cage.
While Chen Yi was doing these things, Qin Chengcheng sat on the futon that Chen Yi had prepared for her, watching him with a smile on her face, her eyes never blinking.
Half a day later, lightning flashed at Chen Yi's fingertips, and sixty-three lightning crystals were embedded in the cage wall like stars. The newly refined cage was covered with purplish-blue lightning patterns. Although its size had shrunk by 30%, it looked even more powerful.
The seven-star array suspended above the cage slowly rotated, transforming the wandering lightning spirits into a dense electric net covering every corner.
"Alright, come on over. This time we should be able to withstand the seventh wave of lightning attacks."
Chen Yi wiped the sweat from his forehead and greeted Qin Chengcheng.
Qin Chengcheng sat on the futon, her knees drawn up to her chest. Her moon-white skirt spread out like a lotus flower, her jade-like feet slightly raised, her beautiful face filled with happiness.
Following Chen Yi's instructions, they entered the horse cage.
"Fairy, although the thirty-six lightning crystals in your body are now useless..."
But I believe this crisis will give you a deeper understanding of the power of lightning tides and the properties of lightning crystals.
Next, I will reinfuse you with more lightning crystals. If your body allows, it may exceed thirty-six. You must concentrate fully on cooperating with me.
Chen Yi said to Qin Chengcheng,
Qin Chengcheng gave a soft "hmm," lowered her head, and went inside, preparing to lie down on the soft quilt that Chen Yi had prepared.
"hiss--"
"Tsk—"
"Pah, shameless—"
At this moment, various sounds and emotional fluctuations came from the walls on the three outer floors.
Chen Yi looked up and saw Qi Wuba, Feng Qingjun, and the others slumped against the wall, staring at the two unharmed figures in the cage, still engaged in their intimate act.
Their jealous eyes were practically burning with rage.
"Sorry, I forgot to close the curtains."
Chen Yi suddenly realized, and then green magical light flashed at his fingertips, enveloping the entire new small stable in multiple layers of spiritual mist.
All protective formations, including those against spying, divine sense, sound waves, and vibrations, are activated.
"That's good, they can't see it now."
These Qi prodigies are already quite badly injured; further provoking them might worsen their condition, which would be extremely inappropriate.
Chen Yi clapped his hands and said in a tone that suggested he was thinking of them.
Qin Chengcheng smiled, her beautiful eyes curving into lovely arcs as she looked at Chen Yi, her gaze sparkling like stars.
"Lie down properly, let's begin."
Qin Chengcheng nodded obediently, lay down on the soft quilt, and untied her outer robe and skirt.
She only left a red bellyband to cover the spring sunshine.
This time, she cooperated willingly, saving Chen Yi a lot of trouble.
Although her eyes were full of shyness, she did not reject Chen Yi's indiscriminate looking and touching.
It's all about treatment anyway, the doctor-patient relationship. My body is nothing more than a pile of flesh and bones.
Qin Chengcheng encouraged herself.
next moment,
"Hey!! Why did you touch that place right away?!"
She instantly squeezed her legs together to prevent Chen Yi from moving.
"Silence, focus, and take over the Thunder Crystal!"
Chen Yi snorted softly.
Qin Chengcheng immediately became serious, loosened her grip on his legs, and let Chen Yi do as he pleased.
With his face burning hot, he forcibly mobilized his divine sense and magical power to receive the lightning crystal near his perineum.
Gradually, the waist, abdomen, chest, back, arms, feet, including the most embarrassing areas of the perineum and the Tianchi acupoint,
Chen Yi didn't miss a single one.
Moreover, because a larger number of lightning crystals needed to be transferred this time, Chen Yi used his fingers to press the crystals into acupoints to conserve his energy and mana.
This method makes the handover process much easier for both parties.
The downside is that some indescribable details between acupoints and skin may be repeatedly, thoroughly, and deeply touched by Chen Yi.
Qin Chengcheng no longer saw herself as a woman; her face was burning red.
Yet, amidst each and every lightning crystal, one must concentrate all their attention to receive them.
Finally, when 45 lightning crystals were transferred into her body, her body reached its limit.
Neither magic power nor divine sense could be mobilized even a trace.
"That's enough, Chen Yi, let's call it a day. I've reached my limit."
Qin Chengcheng begged for mercy.
Seeing this, Chen Yi had no choice but to stop.
"Your physical condition is still far from adequate. You'll need to practice diligently and feel the connection between these lightning crystals. This will be helpful for your later comprehension of the Thunder Soul Sect's legacy."
Furthermore, you should also seriously start practicing body tempering.
It couldn't even last 45 pills.
This won't do.
"I see."
Qin Chengcheng's face flushed as she straightened her undergarment. In truth, given her current condition, the undergarment served almost no purpose; its only function was to deceive herself into thinking it was merely a way to cover her shame.
Her only consolation was that, before starting this time, when Chen Yi was tidying up the horse cage, she had secretly used a cleaning technique several times to keep the areas where she was prone to sweating clean and tidy, thus avoiding the embarrassment of last time.
Inside the cage, Chen Yi and Qin Chengcheng sat cross-legged, recovering their cultivation and spiritual consciousness.
Half a day later,
The two walked out of the horse cage together.
Qin Chengcheng moved with light steps, her snow-white skirt fluttering without wind, and faint purple lightning patterns swirling around her. The raging lightning spirit power in the lightning field actually gave way when it approached her, forming an invisible lightning spirit vacuum around her.
Clearly, the strength of the lightning crystals in her body has increased again, probably stronger than the strength of Xu Jiu's previous Great Horse Cage.
She was radiant with health, her body brimming with magical power, her spirit was high, and she was in excellent spirits, showing absolutely no signs of being on the verge of death or seriously injured.
This formed a stark contrast to the heavily injured and still recovering monks standing by the three-layered wall.
In an instant, everyone looked on with envy and jealousy.
Everyone had overheard part of Qiu Li and Chen Yi's conversation earlier.
Knowing that Qin Chengcheng, like them, was also enveloped by the thunderous tide and narrowly escaped serious injury and death,
That's why it's like this—it was saved by Xu Jiu.
But they never expected that Qin Chengcheng would not only recover so quickly, but also turn misfortune into a blessing.
In such a short period of time, she had even more lightning crystals implanted in her!
Qi Wuba thought to himself with resentment, "Why don't I have exceptional beauty? Otherwise, someone would have helped me heal my injuries and implant crystals."
I'm covered in lightning wounds; I'll have to recover and heal on my own.
His muttering was quite loud; the nearby cultivators could all hear it.
Everyone was secretly laughing, but Leng Jianfei was extremely unhappy:
"Qi Wuba, watch your mouth. What do you mean by 'relying on looks'? Fairy Qin must have healed her injuries herself and mastered the cultivation technique on her own."
It has absolutely nothing to do with that ugly bald man!
He couldn't stand seeing his goddess being slandered!
"Tch! Idiot! Things are like this, and you're still saying they're okay?"
"That's right, you think you're worthy of coveting Fairy Qin? You're not even fit to lick her feet!"
As soon as Leng Jianfei opened his mouth, he was immediately rebuked by the male cultivators.
His face flushed red with disappointment: "Where did I covet Fairy Qin? I... I just couldn't bear to see Fairy Qin go into the fire pit."
Let me tell you, in my eyes, Fairy Ning is even more beautiful than Fairy Qin, and she's much more suited to a sword cultivator like me.
As he spoke, Leng Jianfei stole a glance at Ning Bu'er, whose long legs were mostly exposed.
Not far away, Ning Bu'er's expression turned cold upon hearing this. He flicked a black flame from his fingertips, striking the ground in front of Leng Jianfei.
"Leng Jianfei, watch your words and your eyes! If you dare to look away again, I'll crush your sword pellet!"
"Also, even if you're looking for a man, a strong man like Xu Jiu is a hundred times more reliable than a pretty boy like you who uses a fencing sword!"
"Even if I were to become Xu Jiu's concubine, I wouldn't consider you at all!"
Ning Bu'er's words were sharp, making Leng Jianfei wish he could disappear into the ground.
Ning Bu'er looked at Qin Chengcheng with a deep, unsettling gaze.
As a female cultivator, how could she not envy Qin Chengcheng?
In the past, she would have wanted to have dozens of lightning crystals implanted in her body, just like Qin Chengcheng.
Within this Hall of Inheritance, forge ahead fearlessly, break through barriers, and seize the inherited cultivation techniques.
Even if it meant going through dual cultivation, she gritted her teeth and accepted it, treating it like being bitten by a dog.
but now,
"Alas, it's all too late."
Ning Bu'er sighed softly, her mood somewhat downcast.
This is because the demonic thought within her soul has become entangled with a certain fundamental element deep within her soul.
It would be extremely difficult for her to eliminate it on her own.
Furthermore, it will become increasingly difficult over time.
Unless, she encounters a true high-level cultivator from the ancient Thunder Soul Sect,
And she released her divine soul, allowing the Soul Thunder Secret Technique to kill that demonic thought within her divine soul.
Although she might suffer severe damage to her soul during that process, it's much better than being slowly corrupted and controlled by demonic thoughts.
"However, tens of thousands of years have passed, and the Thunder Soul Sect's heritage has only just reappeared in the world."
Where can we find a high-level cultivator who knows the Soul Thunder Technique?
Ning Bu'er was somewhat confused for a moment.
Then, she gritted her teeth, her gaze resolute, and looked at the seventh thunder lion.
It's just a Soul Thunder Impact, I'm going to die anyway, so even if I die, I'll fight to the death!
Even Qiu Li was somewhat envious of Qin Chengcheng's treatment.
In the midst of the lightning storm, he risked his life to save others.
After saving someone, it can also help with healing.
After healing, it can be filled with lightning crystals to enhance its defense against lightning tides.
"Chengcheng is quite lucky. This lousy cook isn't entirely useless, except for being cowardly and afraid of death."
When Qiu Li saw Qin Chengcheng emerge unharmed, her body crackling with lightning, a look of envy flashed in her eyes.
After studying the Azure Wind Escape technique for half a day, she had already mastered its basics and could use it. Although it was primarily powered by wind elemental energy, this was no challenge for Qiu Li, who possessed an innate precious body.
However, combining the Azure Wind Escape with the Thunder Step proved difficult for Qiu Li.
She was inclined to seek advice from Chen Yi.
Just then, Qin Chengcheng came out.
Qiu Li stood up and stepped forward to greet her, taking Qin Chengcheng's hand and checking her over, her eyes filled with surprise and delight.
"Forty-five pills! Did this kid give you an extra one this time?!"
She secretly whispered to Qin Chengcheng, and the two exchanged a few words. Then Qin Chengcheng blushed, stole a glance at Chen Yi, and then secretly hit Qiu Li, looking embarrassed.
A moment later, their smiles faded.
Qiu Li turned to look at Chen Yi, sizing him up.
Then he nodded and transmitted his voice:
"You did a good job, kid. You put in a lot of effort for Chengcheng, even though you're a bit timid, lack talent, and don't have much influence or background."
But his character is passable, and he's someone you can rely on.
Fine, even if Chengcheng successfully forms his core, you, a mere cook, will still only be a Foundation Establishment cultivator, as long as you two are together.
I will also support it.
The way you treated her is equivalent to saving Chengcheng's life again and planting lightning crystals in her twice. Any female cultivator in the cultivation world would probably be willing to give herself to you.
As for those old Core Formation cultivators who dare to be envious, come find me, and I'll stand up for you.
"Fairy Qiu misunderstands. Fairy Qin and I are just friends. The cultivation world is ever-changing; the Foundation Establishment stage is merely..."
"stop--"
Qiu Li interrupted Chen Yi,
"Stop nagging me, it's annoying!"
Qiu Li was too lazy to pay any more attention to Chen Yi.
Originally, she came to pick up Qin Chengcheng, say a few words to Chen Yi, and show goodwill to him, wanting to ask how the Thunder Step was combined with the Azure Wind Escape.
But Chen Yi's words clearly showed that he didn't want to appreciate her kindness, which annoyed her. Why couldn't Qin Chengcheng get married?
Seeing Chen Yi's attitude now, she couldn't bring herself to ask for his advice anymore.
Fine, I'll figure it out myself!
Out of spite, Qiu Li returned to the stone tablet bearing the legacy of the first Thunder Lion, seeking to rediscover the essence of Xun Thunder.
At this moment, Qin Chengcheng's entire body's resistance to lightning was enhanced, including her soul, which had also been slightly improved after experiencing a soul lightning invasion.
At this moment, he was full of energy, and the other cultivators were also eager to make their move.
Qi Wuba stood up and, supporting himself, walked to Chen Yi:
"Brother Xu, I see that Fairy Qin has recovered completely, but do you have a special treatment method for the entry of lightning essence into the body?"
If Qi's injuries can be healed, Qi is willing to pay the relevant medical expenses.
Qi Wuba, who was as tall as a tower, bowed deeply as he spoke to Chen Yi, his attitude sincere.
