Chapter 31: Refining the Body with Heavenly Thunder
It must be said that the Dou Clan's flying speed is fast. If Xiao Yun were to travel the distance from the Heavenly Fen Refining Qi Tower to the Falling Thunder Valley by himself, it would probably take more than half an hour. However, under the leadership of Elder Su, they reached their destination in just ten minutes.
Xiao Yun was suspended in the air, looking down from above. The scene before him made him inhale a breath of cool air unconsciously.
In the valley ahead, the sky seemed to be pulled into a piece of black cloth, with lightning flashing in it, and thunder continuously struck from top to bottom, fiercely striking the valley. White light jumped at the bottom of the valley, and thunder roared like an army, deafening. The dark valley looked even darker and more terrifying in the afterglow of lightning, making people feel terrified.
It seemed that the next moment, the entire valley would be destroyed by the thunder. In this valley, all sounds were drowned by lightning and thunder. Only the whistling sound produced by the wind blowing through the canyon would carry away some of the terrifying thunder.
"This is the Falling Thunder Valley. Do you still want to enter it to practice now?" Elder Su said with a smile, holding Xiao Yun in one hand.
Swallowing hard, Xiao Yun tried to comfort himself. After a while, he said, "Come in! I'm just practicing at the outermost area. It shouldn't be a big deal, right?"
"Well, go in. I have to go back to guard the Heavenly Burning Qi Refining Tower. You can go back to the inner courtyard by yourself." Elder Su brought Xiao Yun to land in front of the valley, patted Xiao Yun on the shoulder, and then flashed and flew towards the edge of the sky.
Looking at Elder Su going away, Xiao Yun once again silently encouraged himself in his heart. His figure flashed and turned into a stream of light and appeared at the outermost area of the Falling Thunder Valley. Xiao Yun found a big stone and sat down, and took out the "Ten Thousand Thunders Refining Body" scroll and golden thunder flower from the ring.
On the first page of the scroll, there was a passage written in a swift and graceful manner: Temper your body with Heavenly Thunder, go against the will of Heaven, make the slightest mistake and you will be reduced to ashes!
Xiao Yun curled his lips and ignored it. The fighting spirit in his body was surging, and it was constantly circulating in his meridians according to the instructions on the scroll. After seeing that the fighting spirit was circulating smoothly, Xiao Yun did not hesitate to pick up the golden thunder flower and swallow it into his mouth.
Without chewing, the golden lightning flower turned into a golden lightning after entering the mouth, and went into the body along the esophagus. With a slight movement of the mind, the fighting spirit in the cyclone burst out, passed through countless meridians, and came to the front of the golden lightning. Then the fiery red fighting spirit rushed up and wrapped it up, and circulated in the meridians of the body according to the method of "Ten Thousand Thunders Refining the Body".
As time passed, Xiao Yun had already circulated a circle, and fine electric light began to penetrate the surface of his body. From a distance, he looked like a human-shaped light bulb.
"Boom!"
Waves of thunder were attracted to Xiao Yun, like silver electric snakes, intertwining and jumping in the air, and finally gathered into an extremely strong thunder, covering Xiao Yun's body from top to bottom.
"Ahhh! So strong!" Xiao Yun's face was ferocious, and the clothes on his body had long been torn by the thunder force, revealing his somewhat strong muscles and white skin. Fighting spirit burst out from his body, and the fiery red fighting spirit merged with the silver lightning, constantly wandering on Xiao Yun's back. Every time the lightning jumped, a deep blue lightning pattern would appear on his back.
"Tsk tsk, this kid, is he practicing the Ten Thousand Thunder Body Refining Technique left by the dean? Only the crazy dean can create such a technique to attract thunder to refine the body." In midair, Elder Su, who had left long ago, turned back and quietly watched Xiao Yun's crazy behavior of absorbing thunder.
"It seems that I don't need to do anything, this little guy can withstand these thunders." After a moment, Elder Su looked at the strong young body in the thunder with a little admiration in his eyes, "At such a young age, he can endure the pain that ordinary people can't endure. He is really a monster. Given time, he may not be able to reach the level of the dean." In midair, only an old voice was left, and the figure of Elder Su had disappeared.
Originally, Elder Su thought that Xiao Yun, a great fighter, could not withstand the terrifying power of thunder, and planned to rescue him when he could not hold on. After watching for a while, he found that although Xiao Yun was a little reluctant, he could still absorb some of the power of thunder to refine his body. In this case, he did not need to worry about Xiao Yun's safety.
Xiao Yun did not notice Elder Su's appearance and words. He only felt that his body was about to explode. Endless pain came over him. In addition to the pain, there was no other thought in his mind. The fighting spirit in his body could only operate mechanically according to the method of "Ten Thousand Thunders Refining Body".
In such pain, Xiao Yun's perception of the passage of time in the outside world also became blurred. He didn't know whether it was a moment or a few hours. He endured the pain in his mind and gradually sank his mind into his body.
When his mind sank into his body, he immediately received feedback from all parts of his body. At this time, many meridians in his body were filled with tiny silver lightning. These silver lightnings, which contained terrifying energy, were randomly moving in the meridians. Fortunately, the golden lightning flower energy that Xiao Yun had swallowed earlier had already turned into a layer of golden barrier to protect the fragile meridians.
With the circulation of fighting spirit and the protection of golden energy, the endless pain was alleviated. Xiao Yun breathed a sigh of relief and finally had time to try to guide the power of thunder. However, as soon as he came into contact with it, he felt a headache. This power of thunder was extremely violent by nature, just like a mad bull in a bullfighting ring. It was obviously not an easy task to pin it down and make it return to the cattle pen. The
first contact was a direct failure, but Xiao Yun did not lose heart. He continued to drive the fighting spirit and tried to guide the power of thunder unremittingly.
Failure, failure, and failure again... After countless failures, Xiao Yun, who had tried to the point of being numb, suddenly felt a shock in his mind. He was immediately surprised to find that the thunder power in his meridians finally stopped resisting his fighting spirit and began to flow in his meridians along his mind. He
carefully controlled this thunder power and let it flow according to the trajectory of the practice. Gradually, the other thunder powers in his body were also attracted by it and began to slowly merge together.
When all the thunder powers in his body were gathered together, the originally silver thunder began to glow with a hint of golden light.
With the appearance of the golden light, the thunder power became more violent and terrifying. Wherever it passed, even the golden barrier that could resist before became a little dim.
The effect of the golden thunder flower was gradually fading, but Xiao Yun did not dare to be anxious. He still carefully controlled the power of thunder and slowly circulated it along the meridians in his body.
During the operation, Xiao Yun's mind became more and more proficient in the power of thunder. When the power of thunder passed through all the meridians and perfectly completed a cycle, at this moment, he could feel that some kind of power seemed to be awakening inside his body.
There were flashes of lightning on every meridian, flesh, bone and other organs of his body. The power of thunder was suspended above the cyclone and was slowly absorbed by all parts of the body.
The small body on the stone, if someone were here, they would find that Xiao Yun had almost no intact skin on his body. His whole body was as black as charcoal, and there were wisps of white smoke seeping out of his head.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
In this silent valley, the charcoal-like body suddenly made a strong heartbeat, and every beat seemed to be playing the music of thunder.
As the heartbeat sounded, a dazzling thunder force suddenly burst out from Xiao Yun's body, turning into a silver barrier that wrapped the whole body, with lightning flashing on it, isolating everything from the outside world.
