After breaking through to the Mortal Core realm, Long Chen's status had changed from a Rank 4 disciple to a Rank 3 disciple. His living quarters had also changed from a Rank 4 disciple's living quarters to a Rank 3 disciple's living quarters.
However, during his time in the Lingwu family, he was either cultivating or going out. He rarely interacted with others, so he did not recognize many of the other Rank 3 disciples.
After moving here, his living quarters were bigger, and he even had his own courtyard.
It was a beautiful place with birds chirping and flowers blooming.
After returning here, Long Chen quickly walked into the basement and sat down with his legs crossed. In his hand, he was holding the cosmos bag that Lingxi had taken from him.
"Quick, let's see what's inside. I remember that he took out the Thunder Flame Crystal from this Qiankun bag last time. That guy still has another Qiankun bag, but I couldn't snatch it away. That should be his other belongings!"
As soon as Long Chen opened the cosmos bag, he could feel the power of thunder and fire rushing towards him. Although the power was contained within the Thunder Flame Crystals, it was still not simple.
Long Chen and Ling Xi's eyes lit up with excitement as they unfurled the familiar Thunder Flame Crystal in front of them.
"There's a total of 47 crystals!"
After the calculations were complete, Ling Xi was indescribably happy.
And Long Chen knew that with only 10 Thunder Flame Crystals, he would be able to complete the Thunder Flame Battle Body and become a Thunder Flame warrior!
These 47 Thunder Flame Crystals were enough for him.
"I guess the headquarters of the Morning Light Business League only gave him 50 Thunder Flame Crystals. They gave me one and two to the others, so there's only 47 left."
After coming out from the quiet room of the Morning Light Business League, Long Chen had already returned the remaining four Thunder Flame Crystals to Zhao Tianfang.
But in the end, they still ended up in his hands.
If Zhao Tianfang knew the whole truth, he would definitely vomit blood.
"From the Heart of Steel, he knew that I'm strong and talented, so he wanted to use this Thunder Flame Crystal to test himself. That's why he treated me so well. If he really found out that I'm suitable for this Thunder Flame Crystal, then he might also use it to let me join the Morning Light Business League …"
Long Chen had already seen through Zhao Tianfang, so he didn't have any qualms about it.
"Long Chen, there are only a few days left until the Sky Martial Realm's trial. You should hurry and fuse with this Thunder Flame Crystal and see how many you can absorb!"
Long Chen nodded. In the rooms of the Lingwu Clan, the door could only be opened with the identity jade card, so the concealment was guaranteed. In the training basement, Long Chen put away the other Thunder Flame Crystals, leaving only one in his hand.
"When I fused with one before, although I felt very uncomfortable, it wasn't like I couldn't endure it. So, fusing with the second one shouldn't be a problem."
After saying that, he did it. With a deep breath, Long Chen fused the Thunder Flame Crystal into his body. Instantly, the same pain as last time surged into his body. In this process, Long Chen was in pain, but he was happy.
The impact of the second Thunder Flame Crystal was much greater. Basically, it was more than twice the impact of the first Thunder Flame Crystal. Under the destructive impact of the power of lightning and flames, Long Chen gnashed his teeth in pain.
Lingxi was originally a bit worried, but seeing that Long Chen's body was fine, but his expression was extremely painful, she rejoiced in his misfortune. She happily spun around at the side and started giggling.
At this time, the power of lightning and flames surged through Long Chen's body. It destroyed his body, and at the same time, constructed a new one for him. In this process, his body gradually solidified and strengthened.
Long Chen took less than an hour to fuse with the first Thunder Flame Crystal. As for the second Thunder Flame Crystal, it was essentially the same as the first Thunder Flame Crystal. However, the Thunder Flame Crystal was such a strange thing. The difficulty of fusing two Thunder Flame Crystals was more than twice as difficult as fusing one.
If Long Chen were to fuse with three, the difficulty would likely be more than twice as difficult as fusing with the second one.
This difficulty increased exponentially. One could imagine just how difficult it would be to fuse with the Thunder Flame Crystal in the later stages.
Long Chen spent a total of more than two hours on the second Thunder Flame Crystal.
At this time, it was already late at night.
Long Chen stood up and happily stretched his body.
"Compared to before, the strength of my body has indeed increased by a lot. Moreover, the Thunder Flame power contained in my Dantian's true energy has also increased by a bit."
"How is it? Can you endure another one?" Beside Long Chen, Lingxi asked expectantly.
She felt that this should not be Long Chen's limit.
"Yes."
The pain brought about by fusing with the Thunder Flame Crystal would completely disappear as long as the fusion was successful. All that was left was a slight numbness in the muscles.
Although this feeling caused Long Chen to tremble in fear, it was not enough to make him afraid.
The third Thunder Flame Crystal was absorbed into his body. Sure enough, the difficulty of the fusion was much higher.
This time, Long Chen used more than four hours to completely fuse with the third Thunder Flame Crystal.
Not only his strength, but his true energy had also increased by a certain amount.
However, the pain this time was much more terrifying. Long Chen clenched his teeth and endured this Thunder Flame Crystal with great difficulty. Only after this experience did he become a little afraid.
"Three Thunder Flame Crystals. This has already exceeded the expectations of Manager Zhao. Long Chen, let's leave it at this. I can tell that you are unable to endure any longer."
Seeing that Long Chen was finally able to catch his breath, Lingxi said worriedly.
"Only three Thunder Flame Crystals. This is still not my limit. There are still four hours until daybreak. I will give it another try!"
Long Chen's personality was stubborn and his gaze was resolute. Since Lingxi could not outtalk him, she could only let him be. Moreover, although the fusion of the third crystal was terrifying, Long Chen clearly still had the strength to continue fighting.
The fusion of the fourth Thunder Flame Crystal was about to begin. As expected, the fusion of the fourth Thunder Flame Crystal was much more terrifying than the third one. Long Chen felt as if there were several swords hidden within his body that were continuously waving about, shredding his body into pieces.
The pain this time caused Long Chen's face to turn green. Beside him, Lingxi watched the lightning and flames emerging from his body. Seeing his painful appearance, her two tiny fists were tightly clenched as she anxiously stared at Long Chen.
Time gradually passed. Long Chen continued to grit his teeth and endure the pain. As expected, the Thunder Flame Crystal was not easy to subdue. The power of the fourth Thunder Flame Crystal entered Long Chen's body and seemed to fuse with the power of the previous three Thunder Flame Crystals, resisting Long Chen's Dragon Soul Qi together.
"Fight!
Persevere!
Only then can I stand out! "
In Long Chen's life, his conviction to become strong had always been incomparably strong.
This was also the case now. The Yang family needed him to use his powerful strength to save them, and Lingxi also needed him to use his powerful strength to save them. Therefore, he knew that he had to become strong.
"These little Thunder Flame Crystals, do you really think they can stop me, Long Chen?"
As long as he could become stronger, Long Chen was willing to risk everything. The pain he was experiencing right now could be heart-wrenching for a normal person, but Long Chen clenched his teeth and endured it with a pale face!
"If this continues, I can only fuse with four Thunder Flame Crystals at most. At this level, it seems like I'm still far away from the Thunder Flame Combat Body and becoming a Thunder Flame warrior …"
Long Chen was not satisfied with himself, but he didn't know that in the Morning Light Business League, there were only a few young warriors who had just broken through to the Mortal Core realm who could fuse with four Thunder Flame Crystals.
Besides, those were the top geniuses of Yuan Ling county!
"Oh right, Long Chen, how could we forget about the Dragon Soul Transformation?
That kind of you is the true form of a dragon martial practitioner. "Ling Xi's delighted voice suddenly rang out.
When Lingxi said this, Long Chen also remembered that after transforming into the Dragon Soul Transformation, all the marks related to dragons on his body had increased by a few times. The nature of his true qi had also increased from four times to ten times. In other words, he could completely transform into the Dragon Soul Transformation right now and fuse with the Thunder Flame Crystals!
Thinking about this, Long Chen's eyes lit up. In the next second, he had completed the Dragon Soul Transformation. Perfect and tidy red scales and sharp bone spikes emerged from his body.
In just an instant, Long Chen had transformed into this eye-catching image.
After transforming into the Dragon Soul Transformation, Long Chen could feel the aura of countless dragons surrounding him.
The pain caused by the fourth Thunder Flame Crystal actually quickly disappeared without a trace after he completed the Dragon Soul transformation!
Long Chen actually discovered that whether it was the Dragon Soul Qi or his current dragon body, they had completely overwhelmed the Thunder Flame Crystals!
The power of the fourth Thunder Flame Crystal was simply not enough. It was easily absorbed by Long Chen into his body, causing Long Chen's body to undergo an earth-shattering change.
"This speed of fusion is even smoother than when I first fused with the Thunder Flame Crystal?"
Long Chen was filled with amazement at this Dragon Soul Transformation.
After transforming into this body, even the number of Thunder Flame Crystals he could fuse with had increased by several times. This was truly heaven-defying.
"It is indeed effective!"
When Ling Xi saw that Long Chen had only spent a short amount of time to completely fuse with the Thunder Flame Crystal, which he had spent four hours fusing with, Ling Xi was astonished by the mysteriousness and strength of the Dragon Martialist.
"Hey, if this is the case, how many Thunder Flame Crystals can you fuse with?"
"Won't I know if I continue trying?"
Long Chen smiled brightly. He had originally thought that he would not be able to endure until the fifth Thunder Flame Crystal, but the reality was that he was already fusing with the fifth Thunder Flame Crystal. Furthermore, from the looks of it, he was extremely relaxed.
"This freak …"
Seeing Long Chen's expression of enjoyment, Lingxi was a little speechless. Her beautiful eyes stared intently at Long Chen. Her expression was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
After all, without her, Lingxi, Long Chen would not have been able to obtain so many Thunder Flame Crystals.
In less than an hour, the fifth Thunder Flame Crystal was completely fused. Long Chen opened his eyes with a pleased expression.
"This fifth Thunder Flame Crystal is even easier to fuse than the first one. Girl, watch me perform tonight. I guarantee that I will be handsome to the point of dropping to the ground."
"Tch, the seventh and eighth Thunder Flame Crystals are a hundred times more difficult than the first one. Let me see how you fuse with them?
How can you be proud? "
… …
Today is Sunday, and tomorrow is Monday. It's time to rush the rankings. I hope that all the handsome men and women will arrive on time and send flowers to help me rush the rankings.
Third place for two weeks in a row, I can't stay calm anymore.
[Begging for flowers]
