Chapter 24 Thunder Sound Bone Refining
Chapter 24 Thunder Sound Bone Refining
Time flies, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
During this time, the two jars of top-quality beast blood essence were completely devoured by Wang Dao's furnace-like body.
With that unimaginably vast energy supply, his physique is now terrifyingly powerful.
With a casual punch, crimson blood surged forth, accompanied by the faint roars and howls of ancient beasts. The air itself seemed to explode as if it were being smashed to pieces.
What made Wang Dao even more gratified was that after half a month of sleepless, self-torturing arduous training, he had finally gathered the one hundred source points needed to advance to the Dragon Spine Realm.
Looking at the number "100" that was shimmering with a faint golden light on the panel, Wang Dao was filled with mixed emotions.
"This thing is really annoying..."
He rubbed his stiff face. Although he complained, he knew better than anyone that compared to ordinary martial artists who would spend years in seclusion or even waste their entire lives without making any progress, his half-month of torment was already a smooth path to success that would make countless people envious.
After finishing the last set of "Giant Spirit Carrying Mountain Fist," Wang Dao calmed his boiling blood and turned to step into the secluded training chamber deep within the Hidden Dragon Pavilion.
The heavy stone gate slammed down, shutting out all the noise from the outside world.
Wang Dao sat cross-legged on the futon, adjusted his breathing, and focused his mind on the "Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound Method" in his mind.
Without the slightest hesitation, with a thought, the one hundred source points he had painstakingly accumulated instantly transformed into a dazzling torrent, pouring entirely into this cultivation technique.
"boom!"
In an instant, a terrifying force, like a raging torrent, descended from nowhere and instantly filled his limbs and bones.
This force was incredibly domineering, as if an invisible hand was forcibly reshaping every inch of his bones.
A series of rapid crackling sounds, like popping beans, suddenly came from inside my body. It was my bones reorganizing and being forcibly stretched and compressed.
Immediately afterwards, deep within Wang Dao's chest, he uncontrollably emitted two low and powerful "hum" and "ha" sounds.
The sound was not uttered through the throat, but rather a resonance produced by the vibration of the internal organs.
The sound did not travel outwards, but reverberated wildly within the body like a great bell, forming a high-frequency shockwave with a specific frequency.
The shockwaves, like mercury spilling onto the ground, penetrated everywhere, repeatedly washing over and agitating every bone in his body.
"roar--!"
As the shockwave washed over him, a faint roar, like that of a tiger or a leopard, suddenly erupted from the depths of his very bones.
At this moment, Wang Dao's blood and qi surged wildly, and he seemed to have transformed into an ancient ferocious tiger that would devour anyone it wanted, full of primal and wild killing intent.
The thunderous sound within his body grew ever louder, a thunderous roar caused by the resonance of his qi, blood, and bones—a sign that he had entered the realm of the Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound Technique.
Under the influence of that mysterious and powerful force, the density of Wang Dao's bones is increasing dramatically at an astonishing rate, and his originally hard bones are rapidly transforming into something more resilient and heavy.
Ordinary bone-tempering methods, limited by the level of the technique and the structure of the human body, can often only temper the limbs and spine, leaving many small bones untouched.
However, the human body has 206 bones, and none of them can be missing.
The reason why the "Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound Technique" is listed as top-tier is because it can achieve perfect tempering with no blind spots and full coverage through the all-pervasive thunder sound vibration.
Although this method is extremely dangerous, and the slightest mistake could result in broken bones and tendons, under the system's immense power, all so-called risks are crushed to dust, leaving no chance for them to occur.
For the kingly way, only the ever-increasing power is the most wonderful feeling.
……
While Wang Dao was undergoing a dramatic transformation in the secret chamber, a different, bustling scene unfolded outside the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
Today, the Prince's Mansion is brightly decorated with lanterns and colorful ribbons, and is filled with a festive atmosphere.
The figure in the moon-white, wide-sleeved dress stepped into the mansion, as if bringing the cool moonlight from the heavens into this bustling mortal world.
Wang Qingyue, the true disciple of the Feathered Ascension Sect, has finally returned home.
She possessed a refined and otherworldly air, with eyebrows like distant mountains shrouded in mist and skin as smooth as jade. She was like a fairy who had stepped out of the Moon Palace, her every step a lotus blossom. Her transcendent demeanor made even the usually arrogant servants of the royal palace pale in comparison.
The Feathered Ascension Sect is a sacred place of cultivation that stands at the pinnacle of the world. To become a true disciple of the sect, Wang Qingyue's status is so revered that among the younger generation, only Wang Ming, who cultivates at the Taihao Sword Sect, can rival her.
In the main hall, Princess Zheng Wanqing, dressed in a bright red robe adorned with peonies and golden phoenixes, had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Zheng Wanqing personally greet him, even though Wang Qingyue was a true disciple of the immortal sect, she dared not be arrogant in the slightest.
She knew all too well that this seemingly gentle princess was unfathomable, not to mention that her father, the king, was a force to be reckoned with and possessed the world's top military strength, was also in charge. The rules of the royal palace could not be broken.
"Qingyue greets Your Highness." Wang Qingyue bowed slightly, performing a standard junior's greeting, her clear and melodious voice like pearls falling onto a jade plate.
"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back." Zheng Wanqing said with a loving expression, holding her hand and asking her how she was doing.
After exchanging pleasantries, Wang Qingyue's beautiful eyes swept around the hall, her delicate brows furrowing slightly as if she were searching for something.
"Where's Seventh Brother?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Long, who was standing to the side, couldn't wait to come closer.
Today he was wearing a purple brocade robe with python patterns. Although he had a smile on his face, there was a hint of malice hidden in his eyes.
"Fourth Sister, you don't know, Seventh Brother is a very busy man now," Wang Long said sarcastically, his tone full of sourness. "Ever since he could cultivate, his eyes have practically grown to the top of his head."
"He has no respect for his elders and thinks too highly of himself. He doesn't even respect us older brothers. He's probably hiding in some corner right now, dreaming of being invincible."
Upon hearing this, Wang Qingyue's clear eyes, which seemed to be able to see into people's hearts, quietly fell on Wang Long.
Although she rarely spoke, she was fully aware of the intrigues and power struggles within the household.
"Third Brother."
Wang Qingyue's lips curled into a playful smile. Her tone was gentle, yet carried an undeniable air of authority: "We're all family. It's best not to say things that aren't conducive to unity."
That light "oh" sounded like a thunderclap to Wang Long's ears.
Seeing Wang Qingyue's ambiguous smile, Wang Long's smile instantly froze, and he felt an inexplicable pressure coming towards him.
He coughed awkwardly twice, stammered out an excuse, and then slunk away to the back of the crowd.
Wang Qingyue withdrew her gaze and instead smiled sweetly at Zheng Wanqing:
"Your Highness, it's been a long time since I've seen the Seventh Prince. I heard he's mastered martial arts? That's fantastic news! I must go find him and share it with him, and also see what the boy looks like now."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Wanqing shook her head helplessly, but her eyes held a hint of approval:
"That kid is now a complete cultivation maniac."
"For the past two weeks, apart from eating, drinking and relieving myself, I've basically stayed in the Hidden Dragon Pavilion and haven't come out."
"He didn't come to greet you today; I guess he's reached a crucial stage in his cultivation."
At this point, Zheng Wanqing paused, then said softly:
"Perfect timing, Qingyue, you should go and take a look."
"If he is currently undergoing a breakthrough, as a true disciple of the Feathered Ascension Sect, you are knowledgeable and experienced, and perhaps you can offer some assistance."
