Chapter 29: Bronze Thunder Body, Three-Inscription Symbol Master
Inside the cave, Xiao Tian set Qing Tan down gently.
He handed her a storage pouch and said, "Qing Tan, this is a Qiankun Bag. It contains food and water. I need to cultivate for a while, so take care of yourself and don't wander off. There are powerful beasts outside."
"Okay, Brother Xiao Tian," Qing Tan replied obediently as she took the Qiankun Bag.
Xiao Tian moved to a corner of the cave and sat down cross-legged. With a firm grip, a head-sized thunderball appeared in his hands. Up close, the Thunder Source was truly magnificent. Lightning arcs occasionally stretched out from its surface, forming small thunder explosions, and a deep rumbling could be faintly heard.
"What powerful thunder energy!" Xiao Tian took a deep breath, placing his hands above and below the Thunder Source, and closed his eyes.
At the same time, the Great Sun Thunder Body began to operate slowly, causing his hands to emit a drawing force.
"Rumble!"
As the Great Sun Thunder Body technique activated, the thunder within the Thunder Source became more intense. Soon, liquid-like thunder energy started to flow out of the Thunder Source, entering Xiao Tian's body through his palms.
"Bang!"
As soon as the thunder energy entered his body, Xiao Tian began to shake violently, as if he had touched a high-voltage wire. Even his bones made cracking sounds, struggling under the immense pressure.
"Zzzz!"
The thunder energy coursed through his body, causing his clothes to disintegrate instantly and the ground beneath him to crack.
"Brother Xiao Tian!" Qing Tan called out in worry, but quickly closed her eyes as Xiao Tian's clothes turned to ash, leaving him exposed.
"What a strong body he has!" Even with her eyes closed, the image remained in Qing Tan's mind, causing her to blush deeply.
Unaware of the situation outside, Xiao Tian endured the searing pain from the thunder energy, focusing all his effort on operating the Great Sun Thunder Body. With the technique running, golden light spread inside his body, resisting the violent thunder energy.
Gradually, the golden and silver lights inside him began to merge. As his body absorbed the fused energy, it began to regenerate, no longer fearing the thunder energy.
Realizing the change in his body, Xiao Tian was overjoyed and increased the intensity of the Great Sun Thunder Body, fusing the rampaging thunder energy within him.
As more thunder energy was integrated, the excruciating pain lessened, and Xiao Tian's body began to adapt. He felt his physical strength increasing steadily, which was exactly what he needed.
"Rumble!"
Deep thunderous sounds echoed from within Xiao Tian's body. He appeared like a hedgehog, with thunderous light emanating from every part of him. Each time thunder energy entered, his aura strengthened, and impurities were expelled from his skin, revealing a bronze-like hue.
This was the sign of successfully cultivating the first layer of the Great Sun Thunder Body, known as the Bronze Thunder Body. When fully mastered, his skin would turn completely bronze during battle, while remaining normal otherwise.
As the thunder energy tempered his body, it also affected his Dou Qi cyclone. Inside the cyclone, his purple flame reacted to the thunder energy, battling it fiercely. This process allowed the purple flame to consume much of the thunder energy, causing it to evolve and develop tiny thunder arcs.
Additionally, Xiao Tian's Dou Crystal became even more crystalline and pure under the thunder energy's refinement.
The thunder energy also entered his Niwan Palace.
"Buzz, buzz!"
His two life-symbols twisted, transforming into swirling vortices. They emitted a suction force, absorbing all the thunder energy entering the Niwan Palace.
"Zzzz!"
As the thunder energy was absorbed, tiny electric arcs appeared on the symbols, enhancing his soul power. His soul seemed to be refined by the thunder energy.
Knowing this was a unique feature of his life-symbols, modeled after the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, Xiao Tian began to guide more thunder energy into his Niwan Palace for the symbols to absorb.
With continuous absorption, one of the life-symbols developed a deep crack, indicating the imminent formation of a third symbol.
"Crack, crack!"
Lightning flashed, and the life-symbol finally split into two, marking Xiao Tian's advancement to a Three-Inscription Symbol Master.
With the third life-symbol formed, his Niwan Palace erupted into a storm of soul power, creating a miniature spiritual tempest. If not for Qing Tan's presence, Xiao Tian would have tested its strength.
"Swish!"
Xiao Tian's eyes snapped open, glowing with a fierce golden light. A powerful aura emanated from him, far stronger than before.
Looking at his bronze-like skin, Xiao Tian clenched his fist, feeling immense strength.
With his body now immensely stronger, Xiao Tian thought, "With my initial body refinement and advancement to a Three-Inscription Symbol Master, it's time to search for the Green Lotus Core Flame."
