Chapter 226 Changes
Chapter 226 Changes
The waves raged and submerged him underwater.
When he sank to the bottom of the altar, Lu Luan only felt a coldness all around him, as if he was in the sea.
Knowing that the medicinal power was to temper the body and must not disturb the true essence, he tightened his mind and began to wait quietly for the tempering to be over.
Gradually, he felt something strange on his skin, a slight burning sensation that became more and more intense, until finally he felt as if he was in a furnace, and there seemed to be countless ants in his pores biting and tearing at his will.
Although it was very uncomfortable, it was just a small matter to Lu Luan. He just frowned and endured it.
"It is indeed very different from the Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering. These juices contain medicinal power that nourishes the whole body. Although they are also tempering the flesh and blood, this medicine is fierce yet gentle, and will not leave any hidden injuries. It is somewhat similar to the method of ordinary warriors soaking medicinal materials after training. It is really strange."
Lu Luan felt it carefully and muttered to himself.
He had experienced being struck by lightning and knew the difference.
In other altars.
Although some people did not move at all, three or two with weak willpower looked visibly uncomfortable.
Although I can bear it, I cannot bear it peacefully.
This is just a low concentration.
outside.
When several people saw that some casual cultivators had already shown pain on their faces, a male disciple said disdainfully: "It's just the beginning, casual cultivators' willpower is really scattered, no wonder it's hard for them to achieve anything."
However, the female disciple next to her shook her head slightly and jokingly retorted, "Wasn't it the same when you first tempered your body?"
"Senior Sister Zhou, which one is it?" The disciple said anxiously.
He Yun smiled lightly and said, "Less small talk, pay more attention to their reactions. Humans and monsters are different after all. Write them all down so I can adjust the ratio based on their changes."
"Okay, Brother He."
Several people immediately became obedient and began to use their spiritual powers to carefully observe the changes in the people in the altar.
He Yun nodded silently, and then a seal flashed in his hand, and the runes engraved on the jars also lit up.
He was controlling the power of this special rune to make the medicine work.
This seems to have the ability to amplify the drug response.
After a moment, the pain on the faces of the people in the altar became more and more obvious.
"what happened?"
Lu Luan felt the pain suddenly become more obvious and he opened his eyes involuntarily, but all he saw was an empty darkness.
There is nothing around.
It was like falling into a bottomless abyss.
Fortunately, I can still clearly feel the existence of my body.
At this time, you can feel that there are many tiny substances drilling into your body, and finally traveling around the body, strengthening your muscles and bones little by little.
He reacted and realized that this was the effect of the Body Tempering Altar. It separated the will and undisturbed it, allowing the body to better absorb the medicinal effects.
But the pain now was constantly transmitted to his brain.
"It's really exhausting."
Lu Luan thought that this was still within his tolerable range, so he sat cross-legged in the darkness and felt the changes bit by bit.
Just because he can bear it calmly doesn't mean others can.
Look, ripples have begun to appear on the surface of the water in one of the jars.
The person sitting cross-legged in it was shaking, but after feeling the effect of the tempering, he was still gritting his teeth and enduring it, not wanting to miss this opportunity.
Seeing the performance of some of them, He Yun showed disappointment in his eyes.
……
Time flies by.
Five hours passed and it was already dark.
In the altar, Lu Luan also began to feel that the changes in his body began to stop, and various strange sensations quickly subsided. The effects of the medicine had been completely absorbed.
almost.
Seeing that the effect of the medicine had worn off, He Yun put away the seal, and the light on the altar dimmed.
Then he opened his hand and sucked all the people in the altar out.
All twelve people were able to endure this first tempering. Due to the low concentration of the medicinal liquid, there was no loss of true Qi.
"My body has become even stronger!"
After coming out, the consciousness was combined with the physical body again. Some people felt the change and immediately expressed their joy.
"This body tempering seems..."
There was a hint of strangeness in Lu Luan's eyes.
He felt his body and since his physical body was already quite strong, there was no obvious improvement. However, he found some other different changes.
He Yun looked at everyone and said calmly, "Well, it's a chance, right?"
"Fellow Daoist He, when will we have the next tempering?"
Someone asked impatiently.
He Yun shook his head: "There's no rush. Although you all persevered, I'm not very satisfied with the performance of some of you."
Hearing this, the joy in everyone's eyes disappeared, and instead they became a little uneasy.
It looks like it’s time to choose the people who are to be eliminated.
He Yun's eyes wandered over them again, and he said:
"You, you, you... the six of you should just take a night's rest and go back. You are not suitable for the next tempering."
He selected six people in a row, and when they knew they were eliminated, they immediately looked disappointed.
Naturally, Lu Luan was not mentioned. His calm demeanor made He Yun look at him with some admiration.
"Fellow Daoist He, I made it through it all. There wasn't even a single disturbance in my inner energy."
One of the eliminated people said immediately.
He Yun shook his head slightly: "Your performance will not last for the next tempering, and I don't want to waste the medicine on you."
"Hey."
Those people sighed in disappointment.
They have no chance to improve their strength for free.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Lu Luan and the others who had passed the test and said, "The second round of tempering will be in five days, but I will increase the concentration of the medicine by then, so get ready first."
After giving them a few more instructions, he let them go back to their rooms to rest.
On the way, Xu Feng walked up to him and asked with a smile: "Brother Lu, how do you feel?"
Lu Luan smiled and said, "The effect was beyond my expectations."
Xu Feng nodded. "Yes, it is indeed beyond my expectations. This is just a low-concentration potion. Although it will be painful, it is easy to bear. This Bingtan Spirit Embryo is indeed extraordinary."
"But the next two times will probably be uncomfortable." Lu Luan said.
"It doesn't matter. As long as I can improve my strength, I can get through it with just a little bit of grit."
Xu Feng was not worried because his body was not as strong as Lu Luan's, so the changes after tempering were obvious.
"Haha, that's right."
Lu Luan said.
Then they walked towards their residence while talking.
After returning to the room, Lu Luan sat down cross-legged.
With a slight movement of his mind, the scale-like runes began to shine.
However, compared to the past, there was a slight change that was imperceptible to the naked eye and only he could feel it.
After looking at it for a while, Lu Luan smiled and said to himself: "The purpose of the Bingtan Lingtai is to forge people into weapons. Although my flesh and blood have not been strengthened much, this layer of rune defense has improved significantly. In just five hours, the defense has increased by about 10%."
He didn't expect that his inheritance was so sensitive to this kind of body-quenching liquid and it had improved so much. This was a pleasant surprise.
Within a certain range, the defensive power of his rune becomes stronger as his physical body becomes stronger, but this time it has changes ahead of his physical body.
"The remaining two times will have a higher concentration of medicine. If I can hold on, even if I can't get the body-hardening liquid that can reduce the shackles of my physical body, I will still gain a lot."
Such an unexpected gain made him look forward to the next two temperings.
……
Of course, it is a rare opportunity to enter such a large sect. Although you cannot walk around freely in the sect, you can still stroll around this small hill.
The next day, although his body felt a little floating after tempering, he recovered after a night's rest. There was still some time before the next tempering, so he was not in a hurry to practice martial arts with the leaves.
He wandered around alone in the small hills under the Hunyuan Peak.
It also broadens your horizons.
There is a reason why the disciples of the immortal sect are so powerful. They practice very hard and there are people fighting on the arena every day.
Lu Luan had nothing to do, so he went to the side to watch.
By then, they saw two independent cultivators who had been there for a long time, serving the chores disciples, and their smooth talk flattered them all.
These youngsters, who were still young and inexperienced in the world, were also fooled by their tricks and were all smiling happily.
"The Secret Technique of Running Tiger!"
On the stage, a young man was knocked back three feet. After a loud roar, a two-foot-long virtual tiger rushed out wildly, and the roar of the tiger was deafening.
"Hunyuan Fist!"
The young man who was fighting with him suddenly had his long hair floating up, and a red aura wrapped around his body. He raised his right hand high and punched forward, with a wave of air rolling.
"boom!"
The two collided, and the aftermath spread everywhere.
Lu Luan, who was standing in the distance, had his long hair fluttering gently in the waves.
"Hey, let's go somewhere else."
After looking for a while, he shook his head, felt it was boring, and left.
Next we walked down the mountain.
