Fusion!
After receiving Long Chen's agreement, Manager Zhao immediately laughed heartily.
"It's a little inconvenient to fuse with the Thunder Flame Crystals here. Long Chen, I'll bring you to a quiet place!"
Long Chen nodded and exited from the back door of the Morning Light Business League. After arriving at a large courtyard, Manager Zhao found an incomparably spacious quiet room for Long Chen.
There wasn't anyone here, but Long Chen wasn't afraid that Chief Steward Zhao would have any ill intentions towards him. On one hand, he was poor, and the Chief Steward wouldn't be interested in him. On the other hand, Lingxi had refined two Spirit Breeding Fruits in a row, and now she had two more Spirit Breeding Fruits in her possession. These Spirit Medicines were enough for Lingxi to show off her power, and there wouldn't be any danger to her life.
"I'll put five Thunder Flame Crystals here. I hope you know how many you can fuse with. If you know that you can't withstand one more, then don't force yourself. Do you understand?"
As Manager Zhao spoke, he took out five Thunder Flame Crystals from his Qiankun bag and placed them on the floor of the quiet room.
Looking at the five beautiful crystals that were filled with tiny lightning and flames, Long Chen nodded and said, "Don't worry, Elder Zhao. I, Long Chen, am not a fool. There's no reason for me to throw away my life because of greed."
Manager Zhao looked at Long Chen with approval and said, "Then I won't disturb you fusing with the Thunder Flame Crystals. I'll wait for you in the courtyard outside. If anything happens, just call me!"
After Manager Zhao left, Long Chen could not help but ask Lingxi, "Little Xi, you want me to fuse with these Thunder Flame Crystals. Are these Thunder Flame Crystals really something good?"
After holding it in for a long time, Lingxi was finally able to speak. At this moment, she was extremely excited as she said, "Of course it's something good. Moreover, it's an extremely good thing. Long Chen, you're a Dragon Warrior, so your physique is much stronger than the average person. I estimate that you should be stronger than the average person. In a while, fuse with a Thunder Flame Crystal and estimate where your limits are."
Long Chen did not immediately fuse with it. Instead, he picked up the Thunder Flame Crystal and held it in his hand. The tiny lightning and flame energy of the Thunder Flame Crystal swept past his skin, causing him to feel a numbing sensation.
"The advantage of the Thunder Flame Crystal is that the higher your strength and the stronger your physique, the more Thunder Flame Crystals you can fuse with. Moreover, there's no upper limit. Compared to ordinary body refining battle skills, it's much stronger!"
Lingxi's words had indeed moved Long Chen, but he was not an impulsive person. After carefully analyzing, Long Chen said doubtfully, "Little Xi, this Manager Zhao and I are not related in any way, but he wants me to try this Thunder Flame Crystal. Do you think that he has the idea of testing my talent? If I fuse with too many, he will definitely do his best to get me to join the Morning Light Business League, and even use the backstage support of the Morning Light Business League. If I don't agree, they might kill me …"
"So that's how it is?"
Lingxi finally came to her senses, feeling some lingering fear in her heart. She hurriedly patted her slightly bulging chest, stuck out her tongue, and said, "You're a dragon warrior. The brand in your body naturally has the power to make this Thunder Flame Crystal submit. If you were to freely fuse with it, it's possible that the amount you can fuse with will be much more than others. Therefore, what you said is not impossible …"
This good thing was right in front of his eyes, but it was clear that Long Chen did not dare to completely fuse with it. This kind of miserable feeling made Long Chen want to vomit blood.
"That's right!"
Lingxi suddenly said excitedly, "Hey, did you see that just now? He casually took out five Thunder Flame Crystals from his Universe Bag, and since he took them out to test you, it means that the Morning Light Business League has a lot of these things. Maybe there's even a Thunder Flame Crystal mine. You can just fuse with one or two of them now, and once you leave this place, I'll come back and steal his Universe Bag!"
Long Chen was shocked by Lingxi's bold idea, and he hurriedly said, "Boss, don't be like this. I've spent a lot of effort to get four Soul Bearing Fruits, and I've already served you well. Don't put me in a near-death state again, or else I'll just die!"
Lingxi pouted and said, "Idiot, am I really that useless in your mind? I have the soul force of four Soul Bearing Fruits, and I'm just going to steal a Universe Bag from a guy at the early Earth Core realm. For me, isn't it just a piece of cake?"
Lingxi's cowardly words were filled with confidence. Thinking about how the Thunder Flame Crystal could make him stronger, Long Chen's heart wavered, and he doubtfully asked, "Little Xi, are you sure you can steal that Universe Bag without anyone knowing?"
Ling Xi looked at him angrily and said, "That's only natural. Even though I wasn't serious about my cultivation in the past, when it comes to strange techniques, I was a top-notch existence. Even my father was full of praise for them.
You idiot, how dare you look down on me? I'll teach you a lesson! "
With Lingxi's guarantee, Long Chen felt much more at ease. Without further ado, he looked at the five Thunder Flame Crystals on the ground and said, "There's not much time left. Let me try out these Thunder Flame Crystals and see what's so special about them!"
The five Thunder Flame Crystals were lined up on the ground. Long Chen took one of them and placed it on his palm. Then, he sat down cross-legged and took a deep breath as he looked at the Thunder Flame Crystal.
"Manager Zhao said that as long as I use my True Qi to guide the Thunder Flame Crystal into my body, I'll be able to fuse with it!"
Thinking up to this point, a light red True Qi gradually flowed out from Long Chen's palm and slowly wrapped around the Thunder Flame Crystal. The originally silent Thunder Flame Crystal suddenly seemed to wake up, and it suddenly turned into a blue flame electric current. It entered Long Chen's body from his palm!
"This Thunder Flame Crystal is indeed not simple!"
When this flame electric current entered Long Chen's body, it rapidly spread to every corner of his body. Instantly, Long Chen's entire body was bathed in this liquid electric current that burned with flames. Traces of blue light flowed out from the surface of his body, and Long Chen gradually felt a numbing, prickling pain starting to appear in every corner of his body.
First, the numbing sensation was like a tidal wave that attacked Long Chen in waves. Then came the prickling pain. Wave after wave, it became more and more intense. In the end, it actually turned into an excruciating pain. Every part of his body, whether it was his blood, organs, bones, or muscles, was being torn apart by lightning and burned by flames!
How could this kind of feeling not make one collapse!
It could be seen that on the surface of Long Chen's body, the blue lightning and flames had already appeared and were rapidly swimming around his body. At this moment, Long Chen had a pair of eyes. Within the light red eyeball, there were flames and lightning contained within. Immediately, a turbulent electric light shot out!
"Under the tempering of the lightning and the burning of the flames, although my entire body is in unbearable pain, my body is slowly becoming stronger. This feeling is much more terrifying than when I cultivated the Stars Battle Body!"
"No wonder Little Xi told me to fuse with it. So this Thunder Flame Crystal is really something good!"
The effect of the Thunder Flame Crystal lasted for about an hour before it finally passed. At this moment, Long Chen heaved a sigh of relief. He moved his body a little and realized that the strength had indeed increased by a lot. Moreover, there was a faint blue power within the true energy. This blue power was constantly changing within the lightning and flames, and it was extremely powerful!
"Steward Zhao said that after fusing with the Thunder Flame Crystal, the true energy within the true energy will contain the power of fire and lightning, and its nature will undergo a huge change. It is indeed true!"
However, compared to the light red true energy, this blue power was really too little.
This trace of blue did not enter the Human Core at all. It only existed in the blood-colored mist outside the Human Core.
"Indeed, one Thunder Flame Crystal is completely not my limit!"
Although the feeling just now was very terrifying, in order to become strong, one had to experience enough hardships. Long Chen had already thought this through.
"How is it?"
After Long Chen fused with the first Thunder Flame Crystal, Lingxi hurriedly asked anxiously.
Long Chen grinned and said, "Good, very good!
Little Xi, when we return, big brother will reward you properly. You are really too awesome! "
Then, his gaze turned to the other Thunder Flame Crystals and said with a smile, "These four Thunder Flame Crystals will be placed here. Little Xi, I will leave the rest to you. Remember, the Thunder Flame Crystals are a small matter. Your safety is the most important. You must not force yourself!"
Hearing that Long Chen was so concerned about her, Lingxi's heart was filled with sweetness. However, Long Chen's next sentence caused her face to darken again.
"If something happens to you, I will have to work myself to the bone again. If that happens, I really can't afford to be hurt."
"Bastard, big bastard!"
Thinking of Long Chen's despicable face, Lingxi could not help but grit her teeth. At this time, Long Chen had already decided to leave the quiet room and look for Steward Zhao.
Opening the door, he saw Steward Zhao in a pavilion far away. Long Chen quickly walked over, and Steward Zhao quickly noticed him. Seeing that Long Chen had come out in less than half an hour, Steward Zhao had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Long Chen, how was it? How many did you fuse?"
Long Chen revealed a helpless expression and said, "I can only blame myself for being useless. I only fused with one."
"One?"
Steward Zhao was in disbelief. He knew that Long Chen should be stronger in this aspect. According to his estimation, he must have fused more than two, maybe even three. However, Long Chen just fused with one. Steward Zhao could not help but be very disappointed.
He originally thought that Long Chen would be a rare genius. Moreover, through his discovery, he was able to poach Long Chen from the Lingwu family. If Long Chen's future was bright, he would also benefit from it. However, it seemed that his efforts were in vain. Steward Zhao was a little disheartened. He waved his hand at Long Chen and said impatiently, "If that's the case, then you can go back."
From being extremely enthusiastic, to now being so cold after realizing that he could not do it, Long Chen really admired Steward Zhao's ability to change his face.
This was good. Originally, he felt that it was a little hard for him to take the Thunder Flame Crystal since Steward Zhao appreciated him so much. But now, there was no such obstacle in his heart.
"If that's the case, then I'll take my leave!"
Long Chen sneered and left calmly.
"Anyway, in this Morning Light Business League, there should be a lot of Thunder Flame Crystals. It shouldn't be too much for me to let Lingxi steal some …"
… …
My participation in creation has changed my life. Who is going to give me the first creation stamp?
Breaking point.
