Carrying the briefcase, Luo Feng quickly returned to his residence.
In the underground secret chamber of Jiangnange.
“Click clack~~” Luo Feng twisted the lock of the alloy door to the underground chamber. Naturally, he wanted to use the dragon blood immediately upon obtaining it. If he didn’t use it and some student found out he had dragon blood, someone might steal it, and then he wouldn’t even have a place to cry about it! Using dragon blood was an important matter, and to prevent interruptions, it was best done in the underground secret chamber.
The chamber was illuminated by bright lights.
Luo Feng placed the briefcase in a corner. It was a fingerprint-locked case. He slid his finger across it, and with a click, the briefcase opened.
It was a large case.
It was divided into two layers. The upper layer neatly stacked combat suits, the Blood Shadow Combat Blade, a shield, throwing knives, and other items. Luo Feng took them all out and placed them aside before looking at the lower layer.
In the lower layer, there were only two wooden boxes.
“These two boxes must be the ‘Nine Thunder Blades’ manual and the dragon blood.” Carefully, Luo Feng opened the first wooden box. Inside, neatly stacked, was a thick manual and a large pile of discs. The cover of the manual bore four large characters—《Nine Thunder Blades》.
The manual was now in hand.
“No need to spend time or money on this manual anymore,” Luo Feng muttered. He closed it again and opened the other wooden box.
Click!
The box opened, revealing a foam-padded test tube sealed with a stopper. Inside the test tube was golden blood, filling about a third of its volume.
“This is the dragon blood? The dragon blood worth 80 billion?” Luo Feng carefully removed the foam and gently picked up the test tube, fearing it might shatter. However, logically, the test tube containing dragon blood should be quite sturdy, but Luo Feng dared not test that theory. He raised the test tube high and aimed it at the daylight lamp.
Under the lamp’s glow, the golden blood sent shivers down one’s spine.
Without knowing its value, one would never believe this substance was worth 80 billion.
“Hmm?” Luo Feng looked down.
Under the wooden box where the dragon blood had been stored, there was a set of instructions. Luo Feng picked it up and read carefully, a smile forming on his face. “So using the dragon blood is this simple!” According to the instructions, one only needed to apply the dragon blood to the body. It wasn’t necessary to cover the entire body—just a single spot would suffice.
The dragon blood would naturally permeate and spread throughout the body.
The only caveat—never swallow it.
“On the night of the 28th, at the Nine-Story Tower, my punch strength was 25,100 kilograms. I wonder how much it will increase after using this dragon blood.” Actually, back in late June, Luo Feng’s punch strength had only been 19,600 kilograms. However, throughout July, his punch strength had increased by over 5,000 kilograms!
Such an increase was astonishing!
It wasn’t that strange, though. In July, Luo Feng had spent four hours inside the ancient civilization’s gravity chamber, split into twelve 20-minute sessions, training 20 minutes per day for 12 days. Every three days there equaled fifteen normal days. In just those 12 days, he gained the equivalent of two months of regular training!
That’s why the results in July had been so remarkable.
Actually, Luo Feng’s progress wasn’t exaggerated. If someone trained inside the ancient civilization’s gravity chamber for two hours every day for a month, they could achieve the equivalent of ten months of training!
“My punch strength is 25,100 kilograms. If the dragon blood doubles it, I’ll reach 50,000 kilograms.” Luo Feng thought to himself.
The higher one’s power level, the less effective the dragon blood became.
The lower one’s power level, the more effective the dragon blood was. A warrior-level martial artist, being so weak, could see their strength quadruple after using dragon blood!
Legends say the dragon blood doubles one’s strength, but that doubling is just a rough estimate.
“My current physical condition is only average for a warlord. Using dragon blood, maybe it won’t just double—it might even triple!” Luo Feng thought with anticipation. He had never used dragon blood before. Perhaps others in the world had, but their experiences were never published. No one knew the exact data.
Only by experiencing it firsthand would he know.
…
Inside the underground chamber, Luo Feng lay flat on the ground. In his left hand, he held the test tube containing the dragon blood. Gently, he removed the stopper.
Instantly, a unique scent spread throughout the underground chamber. Just by inhaling this scent, Luo Feng felt a tingling sensation throughout his entire body, as if he were cultivating his genetic energy.
“Dragon blood!” Luo Feng tilted the test tube slightly, pouring the dragon blood onto his chest.
The dragon blood was highly viscous, like mercury.
It flowed slowly. The test tube wasn’t large, and the volume of dragon blood was small—only a third of the test tube. As it flowed onto his chest, it didn’t cover much area. Soon, all the dragon blood had poured out, and Luo Feng placed the test tube aside.
“The area is too small.” Luo Feng immediately used both hands to spread the dragon blood across his chest, quickly rubbing it over his bare upper body!
He also rubbed it onto his arms.
The moment he did, Luo Feng immediately felt his upper body and arms begin to heat up.
“It’s working?” Luo Feng felt hopeful.
He felt streams of heat rapidly seeping into his body from the dragon blood on his skin, spreading throughout his body—legs, arms, back, chest, head—everywhere. Moreover, the heat kept intensifying. Visibly, the dragon blood on his skin quickly diminished, as if it were being absorbed into his skin.
The heat kept increasing!
The temperature kept rising!
“The instructions said the process would be very painful, even causing unconsciousness. But I never expected it to be this painful. I’ve suffered from headaches since childhood and have a high pain tolerance, but still…” Luo Feng clenched his fists tightly, his entire body slightly trembling. At this moment, it felt as though thousands of ants were biting every part of his body. The pain turned his face pale.
And the pain kept intensifying!
Numbness, even pain!
Every part of his body, even his head!
Hot! As if he were being burned alive!
Numb! As if he were being tickled to death!
Pain! Bone-deep pain, causing convulsions.
“Ahh!” Sweat rolled down Luo Feng’s forehead. His body convulsed violently, his muscles twitching, his heartbeat accelerating, and the flow of blood in his body increasing rapidly.
The sound of his heartbeat…
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Each heartbeat sounded like a heavy drumbeat in his ears, growing louder and louder, until… he lost consciousness! He fainted!
As the dragon blood on Luo Feng’s body continued to decrease, it kept seeping into his body. Accompanying this penetration was Luo Feng’s full-body convulsion. Not only was his entire body convulsing, but even every muscle was twitching. His bare upper body looked like worms writhing under his skin. His skin appeared burned red, and the veins on his skin bulged and twisted, a terrifying sight.
Hiss! Hiss!
Accompanying this terrifying process, every cell in Luo Feng’s body was frantically devouring this strange energy, undergoing transformation after transformation! From childhood to now, even when Luo Feng first awakened as a mentalist, the transformation of his body had never been this dramatic!
Within his cells, the genetic material rapidly transformed under the influence of the dragon blood energy, shedding useless genes and improving and perfecting the genes.
Waste cells and impurities were directly expelled, emerging from Luo Feng’s body surface like dirt.
This cellular-level transformation caused Luo Feng’s tendons, bones, membranes, muscles, skin, and internal organs to undergo astonishing changes. The hardness of his bones continuously increased, while the toughness of his bone and muscle membranes underwent a leapfrog transformation. The energy from the dragon blood was sufficient to fuel this transformation!
Everything was happening rapidly!
Thousands, even tens of thousands of times faster than normal cultivation!
At the same time—
Inside Luo Feng’s consciousness sea, within the vast expanse of that ocean.
At the center of the endless mist-covered consciousness sea, the massive dark golden sphere no longer rotated slowly as it had before, releasing mental energy gradually. At this moment, the dark golden sphere was like a breached dam, releasing a massive amount of nearly liquid-like energy that instantly dispersed into mist, filling the entire consciousness sea with a furious surge of mist.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The density of the mist in the consciousness sea kept increasing, and the rate of increase was astonishing. The dark golden sphere furiously released massive amounts of mist, hundreds of times faster than usual, even faster!
…
His physical strength was increasing astonishingly!
Naturally, the dark golden sphere, which had always been limited by his physical strength and unable to fully unleash its latent mental energy, was now freely releasing its power within the consciousness sea! Luo Feng’s mental strength was continuously increasing. From the previous ‘low-tier war god’ level of mental strength, it began to rise at an astonishing rate!
Gradually…
The density of the mist seemed to reach a limit, and droplets began to form!
One droplet, two droplets!
…
Gradually, Luo Feng’s body calmed down, and the dark golden sphere in his consciousness sea finally stopped its furious release of mental energy. It resumed its slow release, just like before. Within the mist-filled consciousness sea, many droplets now floated, with the mist occasionally merging into the droplets and then being released again.
Luo Feng’s consciousness sea had now entered a state of coexistence between mist and liquid.
“Hmm?”
“Am… am I awake?”
Luo Feng’s body trembled slightly as his consciousness finally returned. His eyelids fluttered slightly, and his eyes slowly opened.
At this moment, Luo Feng’s entire body was completely covered in filth, pitch-black from head to toe, even his face was blackened. Luo Feng casually got up after opening his eyes, slightly stretching his arms. He suddenly rubbed his hand across his chest, scraping off a patch of black grime and revealing bronze-colored skin!
Yes, Luo Feng’s skin tone had completely changed.
From the previous ordinary yellow skin to a bronze color, as if forged from steel. This was clearly the result of the dragon blood penetrating his body!
“What incredible strength!” Luo Feng felt the astonishing power within his body. “So much stronger than before.”
“3.5 times! Activate!”
Luo Feng suddenly threw a punch at the alloy wall beside him. With a loud bang, his entire fist dented halfway into the wall. Then, with his left fist, he delivered another heavy punch. Each punch caused the entire underground chamber to tremble, leaving a shocking indentation in the alloy wall.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!…
The deep, muffled sound, as if pounding on one’s heart, echoed one after another. Suddenly gaining such immense power, Luo Feng vented his exhilaration in the most primal way possible.
“Exhilarating! Exhilarating!” Luo Feng couldn’t help but shout.
Luo Feng turned his head toward his combat suit.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Ten throwing knives shot through the air. In the five-meter-long, five-meter-wide, two-and-a-half-meter-high alloy chamber, they began to rotate around Luo Feng at an astonishing speed. Their speed rapidly increased to ten times the speed of sound and kept rising! Such terrifyingly fast throwing knives even carved a groove into the alloy wall as they passed.
Luo Feng clenched his fists tightly. He even had a feeling…
Even if he faced the high-tier lord-level Ironclad Dragon from back then, he would dare to fight it head-on—and even kill it!
