C589 Number of Tribulations
0If Su Dong found the traitors in the factory and removed them one by one, it would be a huge burden for the Su Clan!
Furthermore, his status was very prestigious. Even if he were to cripple the factory, he would not be punished.
So, was this betrayal planned by Su Dong?
Su Dong didn't know that Ye Xuan had already associated herself with a limitless number of things. She even dared to think about such things.
What he needed now was to recover his strength. If the outside world was in chaos, then it would be very dangerous for him to not be able to protect himself.
"Right now we're both very anxious about the situation outside, but we can't leave for now. I need to recover!" Su Dong explained patiently.
Ye Xuan asked in surprise, "How can you recover now that you're like this?"
Su Dong smiled without saying a word. He did a silent gesture and closed his eyes. Then, he started to run the technique to absorb the energy of heaven and earth.
When one reached the sixth level of the Starlight Spell, one could automatically absorb the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth. However, one needed a certain amount of reserves of true energy. If one's true energy was not present in the body, it would not automatically circulate.
After treating Ye Xuan, Su Dong overdrafted his zhen qi to the point that he had to pay a drop of his own blood essence. In that case, he would need an unusually large amount of zhen qi to recover.
Because he often encountered unexpected situations, running out of true energy was a huge problem. Su Dong began to think about whether there was a substitute for true energy, or a medicine that could quickly replenish true energy that was easy to carry.
Now was the time to absorb true qi.
Ye Xuan tactfully sat down on the side as she observed carefully. Previously, her attitude towards Su Dong was at most supplementary. Most of it was due to her curiosity towards Su Dong's identity. Who was it that was worthy for Su Zhengloong to sacrifice so much for her?
Now, it was her personal interest in Su Dong. Once a woman had a change of heart, the result of her observation would be completely different.
The speed of Su Dong's absorption increased again. Every time he reached his limit, it would be a breakthrough, constantly forcing the potential out of his body. However, this speed was still unable to meet the rate of consumption.
Previously, he had squeezed out his entire body dry, so he had to absorb more true energy in order to replenish the true energy that his body had consumed. This was a huge amount, and it would probably take him at least two hours to restore his body.
In addition to storing some zhenqi, time was not allowed.
At that moment, a spell appeared in Su Dong's mind.
Extreme. Two golden words.
The entire text only contained a little more than eighty words, but it was used to assist in the cultivation of the Starlight Mantra. In other areas, it didn't help in any way, and the only thing it could help in was the absorption of the zhen qi.
Su Dong was ecstatic. According to Ji Ji's description, he only needed half an hour to absorb enough Zhen Qi. This recovery rate was enough for him to use.
He really did what he wanted to do, but he didn't know that this was all left behind by the old ancestor. It was impossible for him to just hand the magic over to his own successor without leaving any form of protection.
However, to trigger this layer of protection, it would require Su Dong to continuously push the limit seven times before it could be activated.
Three, seven, nine was the profound number, and also the number of calamities.
Since Su Dong had already passed the third trial, now it was the seventh trial. However, the seventh tribulation was divided into seven levels. This was only the first level tribulation. There would be even more trials to follow.
The support that the ancestor left behind was to allow Su Dong to have the greatest help.
Su Dong memorized it by heart and started to run the Starlight Spell according to the chants. Instantly, the world outside the research building changed drastically and all the Heaven and Earth aura surged towards Elder Qi's research room.
Fortunately, it was dark now, and the night had obscured most of the activity. If it were daytime, it would probably attract quite a bit of attention.
Su Dong could only feel the violent Qi of Heaven and Earth rushing into his body from Bai Huai City, nourishing every meridian, every cell in his body.
If it wasn't for his meridians being tough and broad enough, Su Dong could have exploded and died. Everything was Su Dong's fate, and it was the result of his hard work.
Ye Xuan was stunned. She saw some sparkling gas continuously flowing in from the top of Su Dong's head. Su Dong seemed to enjoy it more than drinking the Bejewelled Nectar Wine.2
At this moment, Su Dong had become even more mysterious in Ye Xuan's heart, making her curiosity even more intense.
The more attention they paid to it, the more they observed it.
When a woman keeps an eye on a man, that man is likely to enter her heart.
Once there was a guy who was very handsome, with a charming smile and shining eyes." One of his female fans would be in a daze every day over his poster photos, his records, movies, and so on.
Just like that, the female fan hopelessly fell in love with the male star. Finally, one day, she was able to confess to the male star, but she was met with cold ridicule and disdain.
Afterwards, the female fans tried to commit suicide in despair. This was completely different from what she had imagined.
Two people who have never met can fall in love through multimedia records, let alone two people who are together every day.
Su Dong was destined to be unable to leave the city without Ye Xuan's help, and Ye Xuan couldn't leave for a short period of time either. What kind of sparks could be created between the two of them?
Twenty minutes later, Su Dong opened his eyes and completely recovered his mobility. His zhenqi had filled up the seventh layer of his body.
He had anticipated this earlier than he had expected. This was the effect of circulating his body for the first time. After familiarizing himself with it, he was sure that he would only need five minutes to recover to his peak condition.
However, there was a prerequisite for such a speed of recovery, and that was for him to have enough Heaven and Earth energy for him to absorb.
In a closed environment, it was very likely that the absorption speed wouldn't even be 10% of the normal speed. This also became an extremely bad habit, but as long as Su Dong was careful, this wouldn't happen.
Su Dong retracted his gaze and saw the interest in Ye Xuan's eyes. He asked doubtfully, "Was what you said just now very charming?" Let our Director Ye admire me so much? "
Ye Xuan did not have the time to hide her expression as she continued to stare at Su Dong and said, "Yes, I really admire you! I can't wait to give you a slap on the face. Once you're done, we'll leave immediately! "
"If you don't ask me what's going on outside, bring me out with you. Aren't you afraid of being caught by the people outside? "Elder sister, with your beauty, I'm afraid you'll suffer inhuman torture and treatment. You need at least fifty people …" Su Dong gave a number.
Ye Xuan would never let anything affect her emotions, but now she couldn't help herself.
Su Dong actually dared to joke around with him. Ye Xuan roared, "Su Dong, do you dare to say it again? I'll tear your mouth apart!"
"Isn't that the black belt of Taekwondo? I'm very scared. Then do you believe that if I tear your clothes off here, I can do something like an animal without the help of those people outside?! Furthermore, we are alone together! " Su Dong also replied immediately.
