Chapter 10: Tempering with Heavenly Thunder, Limits of the Physical Body (Seeking monthly ticket for follow-up reading)
The night after the rain is particularly quiet and peaceful, especially on Damao Peak.

Inside the bamboo house, Shi Jian's small body was still lying on the bed, unable to move at all.

even……

Even breathing seems so vague.

But all this is just an illusion!
Late at night, Shi Jian, who had been motionless, suddenly began to tremble.

The skin that had been dark from being struck by the thunder began to crack inch by inch. As Shi Jian's body trembled, tiny black blood clots began to scatter on the bed.

The exposed part was even whiter than before it encountered the thunderbolt, just like real jade!

From time to time, in the clear veins, purple light moved up and down...

Thump...thump...

Shi Jian's weak heartbeat began to accelerate, and his whole body trembled more violently.

Finally, as if his body had reached its limit, the sound of countless crackling bones in his body could be heard throughout the bamboo house.

The pieces of bones are shining, as clear as glass!
His breathing also began to become rapid.

Finally, Shi Jian, who had his eyes slightly closed, suddenly opened his eyes!

What caught my eye was my own bamboo house!

"He's not dead?"

Shi Jian was a little suspicious. Although he couldn't open his eyes due to the heavy rain, the pain that penetrated deep into his bone marrow when the lightning entered his body could not be faked!

He, Shi Jian, must have been struck by a thunderbolt.

but……

Now Shi Jian looked at his body and it seemed that he had no injuries. Except for the black ash with a faint smell of blood on the bed, there were not many changes in his body.

“What good luck!”

Shi Jian felt somewhat fortunate. There were not many people like him in this world. A six-year-old child was submerged by thunder, but he could wake up unharmed?

Unheard of!

Gu...gu...gu...

Although it was already late at night, the noise coming from Shi Jian's stomach made him frown instantly.

"Not good... this feeling!"

An unprecedented feeling of hunger made Shi Jian frown, and he covered his stomach and started to get out of bed.

After putting on a new set of clothes, he pushed open the bamboo door and went towards his cheap teacher's room.

There's no way, he's just too hungry...

This feeling is even three times stronger than the breakthrough of the Dragon-Tiger Body Tempering Technique!

If you don’t eat something, you’re going to starve to death tonight.
I hope you don’t get struck by thunder and end up starving to death, that would be really funny.

However, at the moment when Shi Jian went out, Wu Chenzi and the Great Elder, who went to Maoshan Alchemy Hall to get medicine, happened to return to Damao Peak at this time.

The two men were standing on the void, and they were obviously anxious, but they just acted as if they were a hundred meters apart.

The moment they saw Shi Jian's small body holding his belly and pushing open the door, they were shocked!
"Brother, that is... is that kid Shi Jian?"

"It's him!"

The two looked at each other and saw deep fear in each other's eyes.

Almost at the same time, they disappeared from the spot and appeared directly in front of Shi Jian!
He suddenly appeared in front of Shi Jian and saw that Shi Jian looked fine, so he thought he had seen a ghost!
But Shi Jian couldn't care less at this moment.

His little face was a little pale. Seeing that his teacher and the great elder came so quickly, he didn't care to be happy and asked directly to fill his stomach!
“Master, Great Elder, this kid Shi Jian… is… hungry!

I’m almost starving!
Can we have something to eat first?"

amount……

When Wu Chenzi and the Great Elder heard these words, their doubts were dispelled.

It seems that after the little guy Shi Jian was struck by the thunder, some remarkable transformation seemed to have occurred during the time they were away!
but……

Now is not the time to talk about this. They can tell at a glance that Shi Jian’s body is extremely lacking in essence and his spirit is extremely weak.

I really need to replenish my energy first...

"Disciple, I will take you to fill your stomach right now!"

Wu Chenzi had also experienced loss and recovery, so he treasured Shi Jian even more.

Is there any reason to refuse?

…………………………In the Maoshan dining hall, the cook who had originally been resting was forced to work overtime late at night due to the arrival of Wu Chenzi, the Great Elder and Shi Jian.

After a while, Shi Jian sat at the table and started to eat...

As for Wu Chenzi and the Great Elder, they stood on the left and right.

While watching Shi Jian wolfing down the food.

I finally got the chance to take a closer look at what amazing changes had taken place in Shi Jian!
"This physical body... is at the twelfth level!"

The Great Elder has already felt that Shi Jian's body has become even stronger.

The key is that the muscles, bones and internal organs in the body are strengthened.

This is the characteristic of the Dragon-Tiger Body Tempering Technique when it is cultivated to the twelfth level of the physical body.

And Wu Chenzi obviously also discovered this situation.

At this moment, his gaze was more focused on the crystal clear meridians on Shi Jian's neck!

Faintly, purple light flashed through the meridians.

Between the skin, a flash of electricity appeared from time to time...

As if he already had his own guess in mind, Wu Chenzi stretched out his finger and slowly placed it on Shi Jian's forehead.

In an instant, a tiny electric current flowed into Wu Chenzi's fingertips.

"Thunder body!"

After slowly saying these two words, Wu Chenzi's face twitched slightly.

It would have been nice if I hadn't been injured after being struck by lightning.

Even the heavenly thunder has the effect of strengthening the body, which can explain why Shi Jian's Dragon-Tiger Body Strengthening Technique allowed him to directly reach the twelfth level of the physical body.

but……

So friendly to lightning after being directly struck by lightning?

Doesn't this seem a bit excessive?
The great elder standing by also had a complicated expression when he heard the word "thunder body".

After quickly checking it out, he was so surprised that he didn't know what to say.

Shi Jian didn't care about anything else and just ate until the hunger in his stomach completely disappeared.

Only then did he feel satisfied and began to wipe his mouth.

It must be said that after eating, Shi Jian felt that the feeling of weakness was gone.

Instead, there is a feeling of bursting with power!
Returning to Damao Peak, it was still dark.

But the Great Elder and Wu Chenzi were already impatient to thoroughly understand the changes in Shi Jian.

Inside the bamboo house, on the bed, Wu Chenzi and the Great Elder stood on both sides.

Shi Jian lay quietly on the bed without moving...

"Brother, there is no problem with this kid's twelfth level of physical body. The first volume of Dragon Tiger Body Tempering Art is no longer useful."

“Junior brother, not only that, the thunder body in this kid’s body seems to be innate.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he was born to be a thunder magician! "

"That's right, Senior Brother, could it be that we underestimated Shi Jian's talent from the beginning?"

"maybe……

However, everything that happened to him was a good thing after all. God bless Maoshan!"

The two of them chatted with each other, not noticing that Shi Jian's shy look on the bed gradually turned into resentment...

Are you kidding? He is now naked and being carefully looked at by two old men whose ages are unknown!
But fortunately, there was no danger.

When it was dawn, Shi Jian could no longer hold on and fell asleep early.

Wu Chenzi and the Great Elder also thoroughly examined Shi Jian's physical changes.

The strength of the lightning body seemed to be beyond their imagination.

Apart from this, no other changes were found.

The sky was bright, and everything that happened last night seemed like a dream.

Apart from Shi Jian, Sect Master Wuchenzi and the Great Elder, no one else knew anything.

Still following the usual rhythm, I started a day of cultivation...

　I ran into some things today, so I can only update once. Sorry, I'll see if I can make it up tomorrow.
