Chapter 30 - The Mating Bull Of The Neighboring Village (1/2)

In a palace that was located above a Ganoderma-like platform, the soul of Qiu Jin'er flew in and entered a young maiden's body sitting in the lotus position. A beautiful woman came in laughing, "Bathing in the lightning and refining the soul is the secret art of the Lei Hu Clan, it wasn't easy for mother to steal it over. By doing so, you can forge your soul to become stronger. You have the Wood Innate Spirit in you, and you are naturally born with your soul and spirit unified as one. If you tempered your soul amidst lightning, your achievements in the future will not be lower than the four strongest youngsters in Swords gate."

Qiu Jin'er opened her eyes and said, "Mother, I have met with a senior martial brother, he was also there refining his soul in a soul weapon, I had a little conversation with him."

The woman was nonplussed, "Could he be a Qi Practitioner of the Lei Hu Clan? I had just stolen the secret technique of Lei Hu Clan, if they found out about it, I will be ashamed…"

Qiu Jin'er quickly said, "Not the Lei Hu Clan. The senior martial brother said he is from the Zhong Shan Clan, his name is Zhong Yue."

The woman heaved a breath of relief, but she asked in puzzlement, "What is this Zhong Shan Clan member? How is it that I've never heard of it before? Could it be that the Zhong Shan Clan had also stolen the secret technique from the Lei Hu Clan?"

"Senior Martial Brother Zhong is also a thief?" Qiu Jin'er exclaimed in surprise.

The beautiful woman rolled her eyes at Qiu Jin'er and refuted her words, "What thief? We were just cultivating together. You shouldn't use the word thief. It's not nice saying words like that! I will pay a visit to the headmaster one day, I will steal the most profound technique of the Swords Gate, the [Great Boundless Sword Qi], and you will try and learn it."

Qiu Jin'er naughtily stuck out her tongue.

Zhong Yue exclaimed out in shock as he found out that his psyche ocean had become smaller when his soul returned to his body!

His psyche ocean was initially three thousand mus in size and was still growing bigger along with the increase in his strength. But now it had shrunk down to one-third of its previous size, to only a thousand mus!

"What's wrong? Did two third of my prowess just disappeared?"

Xin Huo then jumped out from the Dragon Scale Sword, he shook his head and answered Zhong Yue's doubts, "This is the marvelous part of the lightning refining soul training, your psyche before was full of impurities, although your psyche ocean was big, it wasn't strong. The lightning refining soul training utilizes the banishing power of the lightning to purge the impurities in your psyche. Hence, although your psyche has shrunk down by a lot, it is actually much stronger than before! Look, there are some traces of lightning lurking in your psyche ocean. This is evidence that your psyche is getting stronger!

Zhong Yue's soul glanced around. Indeed, there were surges of lightning flashing and moving around in his psyche ocean like golden snakes under the seawater.

"Your psyche is still not strong enough, if your psyche is strong enough, you can turn your psyche ocean into a pool of lightning or even a lightning sea! The psyche turns into liquid lightning, and lightning water, psyche like this is tens of times stronger than that brat Shui Qinghe's!" Xin Huo continued saying.

"Lightning pool, lightning sea? Lightning liquids, lightning waters?"

Zhong Yue widened his eyes, and his heart galloped in excitement, "When can I reach that kind of level?"

"You probably didn't notice that your soul is smaller too right?"

Xin Huo said happily, "Release your soul now and have a look."

Zhong Yue quickly followed as he said that and as soon as he liberated his soul, the surroundings became massively huge, the floating little lamp flame Xin Huo was now a dozen times bigger than him!

His soul was as big as a little bean while Xin Huo was like a giant, Zhong Yue turned and looked at his body that appeared to be a colossus in his eyes, like a deity or a devil with unimaginable height!

His soul was initially as big as Xin Huo, but now it was tiny and petty.

"Your soul has been reforged through the lightning. It condenses as the impurities were cleansed from it. Get some rest, take a few more Feather Spirit Pellets and refine your body with your psyche. Tomorrow, you will continue the training."

Xin Huo smiled and said, "Wait until your body gets stronger, then you will be directly refining your body with the lightning. But now, you are still far from that stage."

Body and the lightning ? Wouldn't I be cooked?

Zhong Yue recollected his thoughts, he consumed three Feather Spirit Pellets and started visualizing the Jiao Dragon Winding Body Totem Art, immediately the efficacy of the medicinal pellets was rapidly absorbed and failed to last as long as before. Moments later, he would have to ingest another three Feather Spirit Pellets.

Before this, I was unable to strengthen my body further with the [Jiao Dragon Winding Body Totem Art], but now with the increase in psyche strength, I can once again strengthen my body!

Zhong Yue was surprised and happy, he continued cultivating, and just for that one night, he had consumed sixty Feather Spirit Pellets!

With this consumption speed, I'm afraid I will have to eat the soil and grass in the future…

It was early in the morning when he reopened his eyes and made a face that was between laughing and crying. Merely one night and he had consumed sixty Feather Spirit Pellets; the consumption rate was even more exorbitant than when training in the state of extremity. He only had two hundred and fifty Feather Spirit Pellets with him right now, and that would only last him for another four or five days.

But the results were satisfying, and his body strength had significantly improved. He could feel an incredibly explosive strength coursing through his body—every action and every move evoked the lightning!

Every single strand of his muscles contained an explosive force of strength, every single movement was like a taut bowstring, and the firing of his nerve cells was swift like a flash of electricity!

I wonder how strong I will get after five days, will I be comparable to Shui Qinghe?

Zhong Yue's soul entered the Dragon Scale Sword, he controlled it and once again he arrived at the lightning zone. Not long after he started refining his soul with the lightning, Qiu Jin'er also arrived. They shared pleasantries before they went on with their own training.
