Chapter 27: Dragon's Heart, Dragon Blood Body Tempering Pill
[Ding! Special mission 'Clearing the Clouds and Revealing the Sun' completed!]
[Target 'Liu Erlong's' emotional state towards Yu Xiaogang: extreme disgust and rejection.]
[Quest Rewards: Wish Points +1000 (Current: 1364); Dragon Blood Body Tempering Pill x1; Liu Erlong's 'Dragon's Heart' (Deep Bond Already Established).]
Xiao Yin listened to the prompts in his mind and looked at Liu Erlong who seemed to be reborn from Nirvana. A huge stone fell from his heart, and at the same time, a strange premonition arose in his heart.
What does this Dragon's Heart... mean?
Liu Erlong took a few deep breaths and forced herself to suppress the urge to pull Yu Xiaogang out and tear him into pieces.
She walked up to Xiao Yin, staring at him with scorching eyes. Her face was still flushed, but her tone was undeniably overbearing. However, that overbearing tone seemed to be mixed with something else:
"Xiao Yin! From today on, you are a member of my Blue Tyrant Academy! Anyone who dares to touch you will be against me, Liu Erlong! And..."
She paused, her eyes a little vague, and her voice unconsciously lowered a few notes, but with a hint of forced ferocity.
"Don't tell anyone about this! Do you hear me? Otherwise... otherwise I'll cook you like a dish!"
After saying that, she turned around abruptly and walked out of the kitchen quickly. Her back was still hot and fierce, but her red ears revealed her inner restlessness at the moment.
Xiao Yin looked at her back, then looked at the completely mushy vegetables in the pot, smiled helplessly, but a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
It seems... it's getting more and more interesting...
-----------------
In the evening, Xiao Yin sat cross-legged on a piece of open space that Liu Erlong had specially cleared for him, with the Dragon Blood Body Tempering Pill floating in front of him.
The pill was only the size of a longan, and its entire body was a deep dark gold in color.
Its surface is not smooth, but covered with lines like dragon scales, with a faint dark red light slowly flowing through it, as if sealing a drop of living dragon blood.
Liu Erlong leaned against the window with her arms folded, and the setting sun outlined her tall and hot silhouette.
She looked at the pill, her phoenix eyes filled with amazement.
With her knowledge, she had never seen a pill of such quality. The pure dragon power and majestic vitality even made the red dragon spirit in her body emit a faint hum of desire.
She didn't ask about the origin of the elixir. Everyone has their own secrets, just like she would not ask about the magical method that allowed her to see Yu Xiaogang's true face.
She simply said in a deep voice, "Boy, this thing doesn't look simple. The medicinal power is probably extremely strong. Swallow it when you're ready. I'll protect you. If you can't hold on any longer, just let me know. Don't force yourself and ruin yourself!"
Xiao Yin took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart.
He could naturally feel the terrifying energy contained in the elixir.
"Thank you!"
He no longer hesitated, raised his head, and put the pill into his mouth.
Melts in your mouth!
It was not as bitter as imagined, but instead a warm liquid with a rusty sweet taste instantly filled the mouth and rushed down the throat!
Boom——!!!
It was as if an active volcano had exploded inside his body!
An unimaginable violent torrent of energy instantly exploded in Xiao Yin's stomach!
This contains the purest dragon life source and tempering power!
"Ugh—!"
Xiao Yin groaned, and his body suddenly tensed like a bow!
The skin all over his body instantly turned red, and countless fine blood vessels bulged under the skin!
As soon as the sweat seeped out of his pores, it was instantly evaporated into white mist by the terrifying high temperature, lingering around his body!
Pain!
Indescribable pain!
The power of dragon blood washed over his body violently, like the most brutal blacksmith, trying to forge his ordinary iron body into fine steel!
"Roar--!"
With a roar, the shadow of Taotie emerged uncontrollably, with a ferocious dragon head and a coiled sheep body!
It fluctuated violently under the impact of the dragon blood energy, as if it was engaged in some kind of confrontation with this external dragon power!
Liu Erlong's eyes focused and she stood up straight in an instant.
She could clearly feel the fierce conflict and fusion of the two terrifying forces in Xiao Yin's body.
The temperature in the room rose sharply, and she released her soul power without hesitation, setting up an invisible barrier around Xiao Yin.
It not only isolates the damage that may be caused by energy leakage, but is also ready to intervene at any time.
Xiao Yin's consciousness was floating in the waves of severe pain and was almost drowned.
But the ferocity in his bones and the greed of his Taotie spirit were completely aroused!
"Want to eat me?! Then let's see who swallows who first!"
He roared in his heart and used all his strength to activate the "Mysterious Heaven Art"!
It was as if an invisible black hole vortex appeared in the body, madly devouring the violent dragon blood energy!
The Taotie spirit even let out a silent roar, opened its illusory giant mouth, and greedily tore at the pure dragon blood essence!
Refining! Fusion!
This is an extremely painful and dangerous process.
The bones were repeatedly forged, and the meridians and flesh were torn and reassembled!
Time passed in severe pain.
Liu Erlong stood guard quietly by the side, looking at Xiao Yin with complicated eyes.
Watching his face twisted yet never collapsing, watching his body constantly transform through destruction and rebirth...
The strange feeling in her heart, which was caused by the bond with Dragon's Heart, deepened unconsciously.
This kid... is really a monster!
A monster who is so cruel even to himself!
After an unknown amount of time, the violent energy fluctuations on Xiao Yin's body finally began to slowly subside.
The suffocating pain receded, replaced by a sense of comfort.
It's like being reborn!
He slowly opened his eyes.
Buzz!
Two dark golden rays of light, as solid as substance, suddenly shot out from his eyes, like a sleeping beast waking up!
He felt the power surging in his body—
The meridians are as wide and tough as rivers, the bones are as hard as magic iron, the muscles are knotty, and the defense is greatly increased!
He could even clearly feel that the shadow of his Taotie spirit with a dragon head and a sheep body seemed to be more solid, and the dark golden color of the scales was deeper!
The dragon blood tempering body has amazing effects!
Xiao Yin let out a long breath, which was accompanied by hot white smoke.
He stood up and stretched his muscles. His bones made a series of crisp and pleasant popping sounds, like frying beans.
A powerful feeling of strength filled his whole body, making him want to let out a long roar!
He looked at Liu Erlong, who had been guarding beside him, with sincere gratitude in his eyes: "Thank you, Guardian."
Liu Erlong looked at Xiao Yin, who seemed to have been reborn, and his shining eyes, and her heart skipped a beat for no reason.
She suppressed the slight strangeness in her expression and snorted fiercely, but her tone was subtly softened.
"Hmph! Stop talking nonsense! Go wash yourself! You're covered in blood and stink! Also, you burned and cracked the floor of my training room, remember to pay for it!"
After saying that, she turned and walked towards the door, but her steps seemed a little faster than usual.
Xiao Yin looked down at the dirt and blood coming out of his body, then looked at the several tiny burn cracks on the floor, and smiled helplessly.
The dragon blood body has been tempered, and it is one step closer to the third soul ring of ten thousand years!
Next step - ten thousand year whale glue!
