A normal lightning bolt should be silver.
However, the lightning bolt summoned by the Ancestral Dragon's reverse scale was a deep purple, much like the legendary "Purple Heaven Divine Lightning".
As Shen Qian was lost in thought, lightning struck him in an instant, slamming into his body under the influence of his rebellious nature.
boom!
The hilltop was sheared off, and as for the sinking... I felt like I "exploded".
It really exploded.
His body and consciousness seemed to have been shattered by the lightning strike. The voltage of countless kilovolts sent his soul flying, and in his daze, he didn't even know what he was doing.
After a while, a mysterious life force burst forth from within, forcefully pulling the consciousness that had been drifting away back to normal.
The celestial water from Yaochi that had been administered beforehand proved crucial at the critical moment.
When consciousness and body are reunited, the first thing to do before sinking is to gasp for breath.
Because his body truly showed signs of damage.
After experiencing breakthroughs in the mountains and seas, the transformation of his physical body amidst the backlash of the Dao Sea, and the consumption of divine flesh, Shen Qian's physical body had already broken through the taboos. He even felt that his physical body had become his strongest domain.
If mental strength and elemental power are only within the normal first-level restriction range, then the physical body before sinking has even faintly touched the edge of the second-level restriction.
But at this moment, under the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning, he realized that his physical body was not much different from that of the Paper Lake.
His body was covered with marks resembling shattered porcelain, and within those cracks, streaks of milky white light flowed, gradually repairing the damage to his flesh.
Huh?
Shen Qian suddenly paused.
At this moment, when the life force of the Jade Pool Immortal Water fully erupted, he suddenly realized that this milky white energy had a somewhat familiar feel to it.
Eighth Senior Sister's peaches have the same feeling!
He remembered before he sank in.
The rich vitality they carried seemed to originate from the same source, except that the vitality contained in the Jade Pool Immortal Water far exceeded that of the peaches that Eighth Senior Sister fed him.
Jade Pool... Kunlun Mountain...
It was as if he had grasped something before sinking.
Before he could figure it out, an excruciating pain suddenly overwhelmed his consciousness.
The body is broken and then reborn—what a painful process!
However, my nerves also snapped just now, so I didn't feel it immediately before sinking.
As his nerves gradually recovered, his senses returned to normal, and the belated but intense pain finally arrived as expected.
The purple currents continued to surge and leap within his body. Every inch of his flesh and every cell died instantly under the onslaught of that thunderous power, only to be reborn under the life-giving power of the Jade Pool Immortal Water.
Shen Qian suddenly realized that he didn't need to do anything; his pre-planned idea of guiding lightning to help his cultivation was completely in vain.
The terrifying power of the thunder far exceeded the limits of what he could control and withstand.
Shen Qian roughly understood why the Ancestral Dragon's Reverse Scale had been gathering dust in the Martial Arts Department's storeroom for so long.
Without the aid of the Jade Pool Immortal Water, without the support of strong spiritual power, and even without a certain physical foundation, the Ancestral Dragon's Reverse Scale is not a body-refining artifact at all, but a suicide weapon!
He could only stand there passively, watching his body wither away again and again, only to be reborn from the ashes once more.
Incidentally, they silently endured pain that surpassed all tortures in the world.
At one point, before sinking, he hesitated about whether to bring the system online so he could pretend to be a tough guy and remain expressionless...
There were times when I did this before sinking into despair, which was equivalent to blocking out all pain.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Chen Qian gave up.
Isn't this an excellent opportunity to temper one's will?
He was afraid of death, pain, and hardship. He knew all too well that these were common flaws in ordinary people, but as he went further and further away, these flaws seemed to be hidden deeper and deeper.
But a true strong person should be fearless.
Shen Qian's eyes hardened, and he even began to silently circulate his mental energy through the visualization method.
Cultivating spiritual power at this time will definitely be twice as effective with half the effort.
Sweat and blood mingled and dripped from Chen Qian's battered body, but he gradually entered a wondrous state of selflessness.
His body was somehow able to remove a considerable amount of impurities under impossible circumstances, and his mental strength also began to grow rapidly under the stimulation of extreme pain, at a rate no less than that of taking a bottle of Mountain and Sea Spirit Elixir.
About ten minutes later, Shen Qian let out a long breath and opened his eyes.
His pale face gradually turned rosy, and his skin became smooth again. The lightning that had been raging on his body had disappeared, and a faint halo of color could be seen flowing over it.
He clenched his fist slightly, felt his own body, and couldn't help but show a look of surprise.
With the Eye of Truth, even without being in front of the martial arts simulator, Shen Qian could confirm that his physical strength had made significant progress, with an increase of at least 30%.
He truly touched that invisible boundary.
The boundary of the two prohibitions!
It was just a tiny bit off.
stop!
With a swift movement of his feet, amidst a deafening sonic boom, he appeared hundreds of meters away as if by teleportation, only to return to his original position in the blink of an eye.
Sensing the sluggishness of everything around him, Chen Qian finally realized that even without the help of the system, his own speed had finally broken through the second forbidden domain.
"One more time..."
The exhilarating feeling of breaking through made Shen Qian completely forget the excruciating pain he had just endured.
He leaped up and slammed his fist heavily onto the Ancestral Dragon's Reverse Scale, which was suspended in mid-air.
