Chapter 25 Thunder Net
Chapter 25 Thunder Net
The back door of Tianxianglou.
Gong Lei looked at the figure emerging from the darkness and said helplessly, "I'm sorry to disappoint you again. This time, we didn't get any information related to the opportunity..."
Zhou Qiuyuan intercepted Jin Ci in advance. The thugs who staged the accident had no money to celebrate at Tianxianglou, so Gong Lei did not obtain any information about Jin Ci.
Moreover, Gong Lei did not obtain any information about becoming a body refiner from Liu Laowu, nor could he confirm his identity.
This is the impact on reality caused by Zhou Qiuyuan buying the gold porcelain ahead of time.
"Dark Night has immortal masters who wield dreamlike immortal arts, with far-reaching influence. They have their own methods of evaluation. You have done things that are beneficial to Dark Night, and the higher-ups will not be stingy with rewards."
"You have made a significant contribution this time, and I have already recommended that you be commended by your superiors."
"You have two choices: one is to learn the result of your spiritual awakening and receive four thousand coins, and the other is to receive twenty thousand coins."
If it weren't for the information provided by Gong Lei, Zhou Qiuyuan would not only have failed to obtain the ten taels of gold inside the porcelain, but would have also missed out on the golden pot. Zhou Qiuyuan's wealth would have ranged from sixty-five to one hundred and ten taels of gold.
When he ate meat, he would make sure his subordinates also had a sip of soup.
Moreover, every time his subordinates provided intelligence, he would use future dreams to intercept the credit, so his subordinates never received any credit. In the long run, they would definitely become lazy and give up.
Zhou Qiuyuan used the excuse of the Dreamlike Immortal Technique to continue distributing hard-earned money to his subordinates.
The presence of immortal masters and their magical arts can create a deterrent effect, enhancing the cohesion of the Dark Night organization and making its subordinates even less likely to betray them.
"Ah!" Gong Lei was completely dumbfounded. He had gained nothing, so how did he somehow earn a large amount of merit?
Is there a celestial master in the dark night?
Fantasy magic?
Gong Lei had initially thought that Dark Night was just a small force, but now, Dark Night seemed unfathomable to him.
Four thousand coins and the result of the spiritual awakening, or twenty thousand coins?
The thing I once dreamed of has fallen right into my lap.
Gong Lei felt no joy at receiving such a windfall; instead, he looked bewildered and said, "I can't accept something for nothing, this is too much!"
Zhou Qiuyuan smiled and said, "Choose one yourself. Don't let my good intentions in pleading with the higher-ups for you go to waste."
Gong Lei gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "I want four thousand coins and the result of the Spirit Awakening."
"I knew you'd make this choice!" Zhou Qiuyuan took out five thousand coins he had prepared beforehand and tossed them over. "You possess a sixth-grade Golden Spirit!"
"Black Swamp City has metal-type body refiners; five thousand coins are enough for you to pay your tuition for a year."
Holding the heavy copper coins and the results of the spiritual awakening, Gong Lei was unable to calm down for a long time.
The other party was willing to give him five thousand coins, so the result of the spiritual awakening couldn't be fake.
Dark Night was indeed formidable; without relying on the Spirit Awakening Pill from the Spirit Awakening Hall, he managed to ascertain the result of his Spirit Awakening.
The magical arts of fantasy might actually be real.
Seeing Zhou Qiuyuan about to leave, Gong Lei quickly asked, voicing his suspicions, "Wait, are you Brother Yuan?"
"You've been given the chance to change your fate, so take care of yourself!" Zhou Qiuyuan neither admitted nor denied it, and his body quickly merged into the darkness.
Gong Lei's hand holding the copper coins trembled slightly. He did not return to Tianxiang Restaurant. If he went back with five thousand coins in his pocket, the money would surely fall into the clutches of the manager.
He needed to find a place to hide the money so he could turn his life around.
Gong Lei did not intend to leave Tianxiang Tower. After all, he still needed to provide intelligence for Dark Night and obtain more cultivation resources for body refiners.
……
Zhou Qiuyuan was not satisfied with his slow progress in cultivation.
Having tasted success through adventures in future dreams, he no longer wanted to follow the rules. With unlimited trial and error at his disposal, he naturally wanted to find the fastest way to cultivate the Yang Thunder Lung through future dreams.
With the money in hand, nothing can stop me now.
Zhou Qiuyuan wanted to test the pills in a future dream, but this time it was to test whether the pills could help temper the Yang Thunder Lung.
These different kinds of pills have different focuses of efficacy. The Wild Ox Bone Strengthening Pill mainly works on bones, while the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup and the Dragon Tiger Rising Yang Pill have comprehensive effects, but they are actually the best for nourishing qi and blood.
The only one that can be used as an aid to body tempering is the Baozhi Secret Dew Pill, which has the widest range of applications and significantly accelerates the process of body tempering.
Since the lungs are part of the body, taking Baozhi Secret Dew Pills should also have a tempering effect. Whether it works or not, we'll know once we try it in the future.
No matter how fierce the conflict between the two elixirs was, it was impossible for him to die.
"What do you intend to do?" Wei Jin's gaze hardened as he saw Zhou Qiuyuan take out the Breath Protection Pill and the Precious Dew Pill. "Don't do anything foolish!"
I praised my apprentice yesterday, but I never expected him to be so reckless today.
"Don't worry, Master, I know what I'm doing."
Zhou Qiuyuan is currently in a dream about the future, and he acts without any scruples.
"You have no self-awareness!" Wei Jin poked Zhou Qiuyuan's forehead with his finger, both angry and annoyed. "Do you think you're the only one thinking of taking shortcuts?"
"Taking two different pills together will cause a conflict in their effects. If the Thunder Breathing Technique is used to guide them, it will inevitably lead to the loss of control over the Thunder Spirit Power and cause irreversible damage to the lungs."
"Once your lungs are severely damaged, you will regret it for the rest of your life."
"Your master doesn't want you to go astray."
Zhou Qiuyuan wanted to say something more, but a pair of sharp eyes glared at him, so he could only swallow back the words he hadn't said.
Having missed his chance in the morning, at 3:15 PM, when his two senior brothers left and Wei Jin went to the back hall, Zhou Qiuyuan unhesitatingly took out the Breath Protection Pill and the Precious Dew Pill and swallowed them together.
After the two medicinal effects dissipated, he felt no discomfort and his breathing was very smooth.
Four hundred roots of lightning spiritual energy emerged, breathing in and out the lightning spiritual energy, and together they slid into the lungs.
The medicinal properties of Baozhi Secret Dew Pill and Huxi Pill are mixed deep in the lungs. Originally, the two are peaceful and harmonious, but as time goes by, their medicinal effects will gradually dissipate.
The appearance of the lightning spiritual power was like adding a fire to dry tinder. After the mixed medicinal power collided with the lightning spiritual power, the lightning spiritual power completely went out of control.
not good!
Despite Zhou Qiuyuan's best efforts to control his lightning spiritual power, two-thirds of it still remained out of control, rampaging through his lungs.
After being nourished by lightning spiritual power, the lungs become more resistant to lightning, but they still cannot withstand the destructive lightning spiritual power.
Zhou Qiuyuan released the lightning spiritual power that was still under his control and quickly dealt with the out-of-control lightning spiritual power.
Although the storm subsided as quickly as possible, the lightning spiritual power still caused irreversible damage to his lungs. Zhou Qiuyuan felt a metallic taste in his throat and had difficulty breathing.
As long as you don't die, it's not a big problem.
Having learned from his failure, Zhou Qiuyuan mobilized only thirty units of lightning spiritual power the second time.
After being hit by the chaotic medicinal effects, half of their lightning spiritual power still escaped their control. Although the impact was small, it still caused secondary damage to their lungs.
Zhou Qiuyuan's spiritual strength far surpasses that of ordinary people, yet he still cannot perfectly control the lightning spiritual power. Ultimately, it is because his method of controlling the lightning spiritual power is not stable enough.
If the four hundred strands of lightning spiritual power were to merge into a single entity, they would no longer be scattered like sand, nor would they be overwhelmed by the chaotic medicinal power and ultimately lose control.
Zhou Qiuyuan controlled the lightning spiritual power, attempting to fuse multiple lightning spiritual powers into one. No matter how he tried, there was no sign of fusion, let alone the merging of four hundred lightning spiritual powers into one.
If you fail to make a plan, you have another plan.
In ancient battlefields, horses were linked together with iron chains, forming a continuous cavalry formation that became an unstoppable force.
Triangles are stable and do not easily collapse when subjected to external impacts.
Since lightning spiritual power cannot be fused into a more powerful entity, could we use this as a basis to improve a method for controlling lightning spiritual power in a stable way?
Zhou Qiuyuan put his idea into practice. Under his control, the three lightning spiritual forces formed an iron triangle like soldiers in formation, with a lightning spiritual line slowly extending between them, connecting the three lightning spiritual forces into one.
This is ultimately not the magical power cultivated by immortal cultivators. The spiritual threads extending from the lightning spiritual power consume a great deal of mental energy and are extremely difficult to control.
After many attempts, the first Thunder Spirit Power Triangle was finally formed.
Zhou Qiuyuan created more Thunder Spirit Triangles, connecting them one by one to form a net.
Weaving a net of lightning spiritual energy requires a hundred times more mental effort than ordinary manipulation. Three hundred and ninety-nine lightning spiritual energies slowly connected to form a net. When the net was completed, Zhou Qiuyuan felt his head was throbbing.
Become!
Zhou Qiuyuan mustered his strength and controlled the lightning net to penetrate deep into his lungs, clearing away the mixed medicinal power.
Faced with the impact of the chaotic medicinal power, the Thunder Network deformed but quickly returned to its original state.
The lightning spiritual energy on the lightning net acted like disciplined soldiers, cutting through and clearing away the chaotic medicinal power, allowing it to seep into the wounded lungs.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Qiuyuan opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.
Unexpectedly, the method of controlling lightning spiritual power that he created was indeed useful.
This method of controlling lightning is called Lightning Net!
