Chapter 11 Did Xiao Bao get incredibly lucky?
Nie Xiaoxiao is seriously injured and unconscious, Xi'er is missing, and her parents cannot be contacted. Achen, who escaped death, is devastated!
Xiao Bao leaned over to comfort her, "Don't worry, Xi'er has the Illusory Butterfly and the High Priest with her, she'll definitely be safe."
Upon seeing Ah Chen injured, his first reaction was to rush down and avenge him, but Long Batian stopped him.
Xiao Bao knew that Long Batian's defensive capabilities were extremely strong, and his combat power was also extremely strong. If the ninth-level Long Batian and the seventh-level Fathead Fish joined forces, they still couldn't stop Achen from getting injured. If he rushed into the ravine, he would probably just be sent to his death.
Therefore, he must advance to the next level as soon as possible.
Ever since Sister Fan became stronger, Xiao Bao's desire to advance was not as urgent. But now, because he felt guilty and ashamed for not being able to protect A Chen, he once again had a strong urge to advance quickly.
While Achen and Nie Xiaoxiao were recovering from their injuries, he slipped out on his own and began wandering around Flying Bird Peak.
He concentrated and began to carefully sense the direction in which the metal elemental energy was relatively active within the thin spiritual energy.
Soon, he discovered that the golden spiritual energy was very active dozens of feet below his feet.
Even in places where spiritual energy is scarce, the activity of metal spiritual energy can be sensed, which is enough to prove that there is a special metal there.
Xiao Bao raised his forepaw and dug down into the rock layer covered with rubble.
With his metallic nature, his two forefeet are comparable to excavators, and the kind with drill bits.
As he dug down with alternating hands, a vertically downward channel was dug out.
The further down you go, the more active the golden spiritual energy becomes, and Xiao Bao starts to get excited.
Suddenly, his claws touched extremely hard metal, and he was immediately jolted and felt a dull pain.
Since he advanced to the seventh rank, he has never encountered any metal that could stop his claws.
He was overjoyed!
This proves that the metal has an extremely high density and extremely high hardness.
The more this happens, the more it helps improve his abilities.
He began to use his supernatural ability to liquefy the metal.
This is a special ability he awakened in District 48 of the Algae Star, and now he uses it as naturally as if it were second nature.
Even so, this process of liquefying metal was extremely difficult.
He exerted a great deal of effort and finally managed to soften the unknown metal within a three-foot radius around his feet.
Once softened, things became simpler. He began to devour the metal and slowly break it down, melting it into every inch of his body.
He felt his body had become stronger again. It was a feeling that was hard to describe. It was as if a full-force impact that could destroy half a mountain could now destroy the entire mountain.
It took Xiao Bao two whole hours to finally devour all the metal within a three-zhang radius beneath his feet, but it would be difficult to make it all his own in a short time.
But that was enough to make him happy and satisfied.
Because he never expected that he could find the metal he needed to advance in this barren, dusty continent.
The reason he came along was simply because he didn't want to be separated from Sister Fan, nor from Achen and Xi'er.
He was about to climb up the vertical tunnel he had dug when he suddenly felt a ripple beneath his feet.
The next second, his body seemed to be pulled by a huge force, and he sank uncontrollably.
He felt as if liquid metal was enveloping his entire body, flowing into him unrestrainedly, as if he were a sponge that absorbed water.
Xiao Bao tried to open his eyes wide, but the liquid metal wouldn't even spare his eyes, flowing into them from his eye sockets.
Fortunately, his body had long been completely integrated with metal; except for his eyes and tongue, all other parts of his body had been metallized.
But at this moment, the liquid metal clearly had no intention of sparing his eyes and tongue.
After his eyeballs were metallicized, Xiao Bao found that he could finally see the liquid metal around him clearly.
Its color is a bright silver, similar to mercury, but more dazzling and denser.
The liquid metal now resembled a mirror, reflecting its entirety.
Its originally golden fur has now turned bright silver, and its originally pure black eyes, which had weak vision, have now turned completely black and gold, and its vision is better than ever before.
It can not only see objects within a hundred feet around it, but also penetrate rock and metal layers to see everything on the ground.
Is this the X-ray vision that the male protagonist in the story told by Sister Fan possesses, who is invincible?
Xiao Bao was overjoyed at that moment. He wanted to see Sister Fan immediately and tell her in person that from now on, he would be the male protagonist in her story!
Thinking of Sister Fan, his gaze fell on Ah Chen again.
The poor child's soul was severely damaged, and almost all the healing pills were of little use. Unfortunately, the great physician was not around, and without any healing abilities, no one could help him.
Xiao Bao continued to expand his body, frantically absorbing the liquid metal, feeling his body density increase little by little, and his weight increase little by little.
Hmph! He'll go find the guy who injured Ah Chen and smash him to death, even if he has to use his body!
After swallowing about ten cubic meters of liquid metal, Xiao Bao finally couldn't eat anymore.
He stored the liquid metal in his own space before reluctantly climbing back onto the ground.
He had just seen the first light of day when he sensed thunderclouds gathering from all directions.
Having already survived the tribulation of advancement, Xiao Bao immediately realized what was happening:
He has advanced to a higher level, and the Heavenly Dao of this Dust Continent is still full of malice towards him. This time, the heavenly lightning will probably be very strong.
Xiao Bao's first reaction was to get away from where A Chen was as soon as possible to avoid being affected by the lightning tribulation.
He shouted at Long Batian, "Quick! Take Achen and Nie Xiaoxiao and run, run as far as you can!"
Long Batian also sensed the gathering of thunderclouds. He had previously advanced in the Misty Heaven Realm, and because the Heavenly Dao there was damaged, he took advantage of the loophole and avoided being struck by lightning.
Unexpectedly, in this godforsaken place (pfft! There aren't even any birds here), Xiao Bao had a stroke of good luck and unexpectedly obtained a great opportunity to advance.
He had no desire to experience being struck by lightning. Long Batian stuck out his long tongue and quickly swallowed Achen, Nie Xiaoxiao, and the fathead fish into his mouth.
If he doesn't run fast enough, he might be tough enough to withstand the attack, but they might not.
Just as Xiao Bao was about to run in the opposite direction, a sudden idea flashed into his mind!
He wouldn't run far; he wanted to run to the place where Ah Chen and the others had just been attacked, and summon heavenly lightning to strike that bastard who bullied Ah Chen to death!
As Xiao Bao climbed down into the ravine, he tried his best to release his aura to attract the heavenly lightning.
Sure enough, the lightning stopped above the deep ravine and continued to press lower and lower.
With a deafening roar, the first bolt of lightning struck down.
The sound of rocks snapping followed, and thick dust billowed up around them.
The deep ravine was cleaved into pieces, almost unrecognizable from its original state.
Xiao Bao was also struck so hard that his whole body convulsed.
He has a metallic nature and extremely high conductivity, making lightning his nemesis.
Fortunately, his internal organs had been metallized, so even though he was trembling like a leaf after being struck by lightning, it was not fatal.
Metals are only highly conductive; they will not be broken apart by lightning.
With all four claws pressed against the rock face, he successfully channeled the lightning into the seawater below the ravine.
In an instant, in the dark sea, strings of silver-blue lightning bolts darted about like swimming fish, electrocuting countless sea creatures wherever they passed.
At the same time, the powerful creature hidden beneath the sea sensed the spiritual energy emanating from Xiao Bao and instantly shot out thousands of fine threads, attempting to entangle him.
The delicious prey that I sensed earlier escaped because I was too arrogant and only used 30% of my strength to catch it.
This time, it used 70% of its strength, determined not to believe its prey could escape.
