Chapter 898 - 896: Breaking Through the Third Layer
"Hah, it really is the third layer of the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique."
Chen Tianlong let out a deep breath. Initially, he couldn’t quite believe it was the third layer of the Heart Method. After all, he had seen this Heart Method in the Nie Family before, and now the third layer appeared here, which made him somewhat skeptical.
Now, seeing the words "Controlled Force," Chen Tianlong was completely convinced.
Without any delay, Chen Tianlong once again activated the third layer of the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique. He wanted to quickly merge this Heart Method with the first and second layers. However, the third layer wasn’t that easy; it took nearly ten minutes to barely connect them.
But to become proficient would definitely take time; it required a period of practice.
Despite this, at this moment, Chen Tianlong already felt a powerful Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi rushing towards him, extremely swift, more intense than any previous Heart Method breakthrough, making Chen Tianlong a bit unaccustomed.
The injuries on his body were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The pain inside his body was instantly relieved, his meridians rapidly cleared, and in less than three minutes, his whole body returned to peak condition.
Damn!
Chen Tianlong was stunned. This third layer is heaven-defying! How could it be so incredible? The healing speed was at least twice as fast, and the speed of absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was astonishingly quick.
Exactly!
This is the function of the third layer of the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique, used to control the absorption, release, and healing of powerful Qi. This is the main feature of the third layer.
Additionally, there is one more point that Chen Tianlong hasn’t realized yet: resistance. Various anomalies and attribute resistances have greatly increased. For example, attacks of five attributes do no harm at all. Even various potent poisons would be quickly expelled from Chen Tianlong’s body, with symptoms but without any danger.
As his injuries quickly improved, Chen Tianlong noticed that a large amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was surging in from all directions. The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi here were already several times denser than outside. Plus, with his Heart Method reaching the third layer, his absorption ability also multiplied.
As a result, in less than five minutes, Chen Tianlong felt his body being filled with Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi. His entire body was in a state of burning and pain, extremely uncomfortable.
This feeling reminded him of just recently advancing two levels.
"Why does it feel so familiar, could it be another breakthrough?" Chen Tianlong was overjoyed. So much Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was being transformed by the third layer of the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique into useful powerful Qi, so now Chen Tianlong’s body was very abundant with powerful Qi. It was not just enough to rise a level, but felt endless.
With the air around him seeming to freeze, suddenly a rumbling sound erupted in his hand, and the shockwave pushed the water outward, causing the edges of the pool to ripple.
Breakthrough!
Chen Tianlong took a deep breath, but he discovered that his body was still absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi. This was not the first time he experienced this, so he immediately calmed down and accelerated the operation of the third layer of the Heart Method.
At this moment, Chen Tianlong realized that now with each breakthrough, he required a considerable amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi. Just now he felt his whole body swelling painfully, a sense of fullness, and now it suddenly became empty again. It was evident that the previous breakthrough had exhausted all his powerful Qi and strength.
If it weren’t for the abundant Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi here, it might have been difficult to replenish that much powerful Qi in a short time.
However, Chen Tianlong suddenly thought, if there was inexhaustible Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi here, coming to cultivate here for a while every day, would he be able to break through once every few days?
However, what Chen Tianlong didn’t know was that this place was the Cloud Dragon Realm, and entering once would consume ten percent of the Primordial Spirit. The recovery of the Primordial Spirit required a cycle, and it couldn’t be entered too often.
Now that Chen Tianlong had entered once, it would take at least half a month before he could do so again, otherwise, it would be too mentally draining, resulting in severe depletion of Primordial Qi, and no matter how strong you were, you wouldn’t be able to fully exert your strength, making it not worth the cost.
Along with the final breakthrough, Chen Tianlong’s strength had reached the Profound Dao three-star level.
At this moment, his physical strength was almost exhausted. Remembering Wu Mengting, who was still outside, anxiously crying, Chen Tianlong dared not delay any longer. Besides, the sun was about to set completely, the mountain path was pitch black, and a girl like her would be terrified.
Outside!
After crying for a while, Wu Mengting suddenly remembered something. If Chen Tianlong were still alive, surely he would have a breath. She tried to check for breath and found that it was very even, just like a normal person.
When people are anxious, they often become foolish, foolish enough to forget even basic common sense.
She felt Chen Tianlong’s heart, and his heartbeat was normal. His breathing was normal, too. What does that indicate?
Obviously, it means that he’s still okay.
"Chen Tianlong, are you still speaking? Why aren’t you waking up; the sky is almost dark, and this is frightening me to death!" Wu Mengting finally calmed down, as long as Chen Tianlong was not dead, she would drag him down the mountain, then take him to the hospital for treatment.
"Young Master Shi, it seems there is a commotion over there." Suddenly a voice came over, and Wu Mengting looked up quickly, only to see three shadows emerging in front of her. Although the sky was a bit dim, it was still very clear.
Seeing Wu Mengting, they could naturally see her too.
As a Profound Dao three-star, Shi Xiaohong quickly sensed the powerful Qi fluctuations ahead. They were emitted while Chen Tianlong was cultivating in the Primordial Dragon Realm, without realizing that enemies would appear outside.
"Oh, it’s this girl and that kid Chen Tianlong, really a case of searching high and low and finding it effortlessly." Shi Xiaohong was overjoyed. After searching for half a day, they finally found them.
If it wasn’t for them taking a detour, tormenting themselves a few times, before retracing their steps to the main road up the mountain, they would have reached the top long ago.
"Yes, Young Master Shi, those are the two up ahead. It seems like the male one is in bad shape, maybe he fell accidentally." Lao Jiu had no idea that the high elder would appear on the mountain. After all, their Fourth Elder had always been absent from Headquarters, and they never even thought he would appear in the Ice City South District Mountain Range.
Shi Xiaohong didn’t say anything but waved his hand, and the three of them walked forward.
This situation seemed a bit precarious. For no reason, it was impossible for Chen Tianlong to injure himself; there should be more to it.
Therefore, Shi Xiaohong remained very cautious, to guard against any traps.
Wu Mengting was exhausted and afraid now. After crying out for so long and Chen Tianlong remained unresponsive, now three bad guys showed up. Wu Mengting recognized these three as the guys sent to deal with Chen Tianlong.
The fact that they chased them all the way here couldn’t mean anything good!
"Hey, girl, it’s really you guys, haha, heaven is really helping me!" Shi Xiaohong saw Wu Mengting’s teary red eyes. Although he didn’t know what happened, seeing Wu Mengting holding Chen Tianlong and crying suggested Chen Tianlong was in a bad shape.
Who would have thought that after all this effort, it wasn’t wasted after all; he could directly take advantage of the situation.
"Lao Shi, Lao Jiu, grab the girl for me, but don’t hurt her. As for the guy, let me handle him." A cold glint flashed across Shi Xiaohong’s face. Since Chen Tianlong couldn’t move, Shi Xiaohong intended to torture him properly, making his life worse than death.
