Chapter Thirty-Three: Turning Calamity into Good Fortune
Long Heng smiled and stroked Du Fei's head, saying: "Uncle Heng has never deceived you. Long Man is dead, and the Golden Dragon Claw no longer has Long Man's blood contract. Now the Golden Dragon Claw is ownerless. You just need to drip your blood onto this glove, and you will be its new master." As he spoke, Long Heng took Du Fei's hand and gently stroked it. Suddenly, a tiny wound appeared on Du Fei's left middle finger, and a drop of pure blood flowed out and fell onto the Golden Dragon Claw. After accepting Du Fei's blood, the Golden Dragon Claw emitted a golden yellow glow that lasted for about several breaths before fading away. Du Fei closed his eyes and felt the information transmitted to him by the Golden Dragon Claw.
After a while, Du Fei opened his eyes and smiled at the benevolent Long Hua beside him: "Uncle Hua, this Golden Dragon Claw is indeed a good thing, thank you Uncle Hua."
Long Heng smiled and patted Du Fei's head, saying: "You saved Uncle Heng twice, now Uncle Heng still owes you a great favor. If you say so, wouldn't that make Uncle Heng lose face?"
"Uncle Huang, I didn't mean it that way. I'm just really grateful for your kindness towards me. You even gave me this precious treasure of the Dragon Clan, so what's wrong with expressing my gratitude?" Du Fei also smiled as he looked at Long Huang.
"Haha, I knew you'd be able to talk, so let's not exchange such polite words between us, or I'll feel awkward all over." Long Huan burst out laughing and continued: "Oh, right, I've carefully examined the meridians on your entire body, and it seems like you've suffered a severe injury. Fortunately, there's no rupture, otherwise, as a minor Yuan Master, not only would you lose all your cultivation, but you'd also be left with a lifelong disability! It's all my fault, haha." As he spoke, Long Huan's eyes revealed a hint of guilt.
Du Fei saw Long Huan because of his own injuries and smiled with guilt: "Uncle Huan, don't mind it, you said it yourself, my tendons didn't break, just got hurt, no big deal, as long as I take good care of myself, I can recover. Don't feel guilty, this makes me uncomfortable too, aren't we not supposed to say these things between us?"
Long Heng was even more speechless after hearing Du Fei's words, and it wasn't until a while later that he managed to say something: "However, you little scoundrel are indeed very lucky. The capacity of your meridians has increased significantly since they were injured. I think your current meridian capacity is already comparable to that of a Yuan Master in the Controlling Yuan Realm. It's just that your injuries are quite severe now. Once you recover, I think your cultivation will have improved greatly. This is also a blessing in disguise for you, and it reduces some of my guilt."
Du Fei was also taken aback by Long Huan's words, and exclaimed in surprise: "Uncle Huan, are you saying that my cultivation has advanced to this point? My tendons and the control of the yuan boundary are almost on par with those of a control yuan master. What does this mean? It feels pretty good."
Long Heng looked at Du Fei with a kind gaze: "Right, if I'm not mistaken, your meridians were originally different from those of ordinary people. Compared to the average Yuan master's meridians, yours are much wider and stronger. Now, your meridians have become even wider than before, which means that your yuan energy absorption speed has accelerated. For example, it would take others an hour to fully absorb the yuan energy in their body, but because of your meridians, you only need about half an hour." In fact, Long Heng didn't know what method Du Fei had used to save himself, but when he woke up and saw Du Fei's heavily injured body with his first glance, he guessed that Du Fei had saved him. Long Heng didn't ask too many questions about how Du Fei had saved him.
On that day, Du Fei's method of receiving the flow of yuan qi was at a concentration that could be compared to the yuan qi of a master in the Mingyuan realm. The power and purity were unimaginable for someone with Du Fei's cultivation level. Under the flow of super-concentrated yuan qi, all impurities in his meridians were washed away, making them even wider and more open. Although he suffered some injuries, they weren't a big deal.
Du Fei's eyebrows rose involuntarily as he listened to Long Heng's explanation, and his face lit up with excitement: "Uncle Heng, is that really true? That's great, hahaha!"
Long Huan saw Du Fei laughing uncontrollably and smiled, saying: "Hehe, look at you laughing like a fool, let's talk about it when you're better..."
Du Fei had been lying in bed for nearly twenty days and finally recovered. For many days without activity, Du Fei was jumping around like a monkey, making Long Huan look delighted on the side.
Du Fei, who had been bouncing around for most of the day, finally stopped in front of Long Huan and said with a sweaty face: "Uncle Huan, it's so comfortable. I've been resting for 20 days and it was really unbearable. Today is just too great."
"Haha, you'd better be careful, your body has just recovered and you should take care of it." Long Huan said so, but he was still overjoyed by Du Fei's recovery.
"Are you carefully examining my meridians to see if I've fully recovered?" Du Fei asked.
Long Huan placed his right hand on Du Fei's head, closed his eyes and circulated the yuanqi to inspect the meridians all over Du Fei's body. After a while, Long Huan revealed a delighted smile and said: "As I expected, your meridians have indeed become much stronger now. Try absorbing some yuanqi with this qigong method and see if the effect is much better than before."
Du Fei sat down cross-legged after hearing Long Huan's words, and started to absorb the yuan energy from nature using the Tianyuan Jue's technique. At this moment, Du Fei's body was like a dry sponge, frantically absorbing the yuan energy. In just a short while, Du Fei's eyes suddenly opened wide, and his gaze became even more spirited than before.
"Uncle Hao, it's just as you said. The absorption speed is incredibly fast! Compared to before, the difference is like heaven and earth. It's not just a little faster, it's ridiculously so."
Long Huan smiled and said, "Hehe, this can only be said that your conditions are better than those of ordinary controllers, but hard work is the key to success. There are many geniuses on this continent, but if you want to achieve immortality, it is inseparable from your efforts."
"Yes, thank you for Uncle Huang's teachings." Du Fei knelt on one knee in front of Long Huang.
Long Huan quickly helped Du Fei up with both hands and said, "Hehehe, no need to be so polite to Uncle Huan. I think that with your current physical condition, you'll be able to break through to the Kontinental realm in less than half a year. At that time, you can start practicing martial skills, and then you won't have to rely solely on your body to fight."
"Really? Uncle Long." Du Fei looked at Long Huan with an excited face.
Long Huan stroked Du Fei's head with a smile and said, "Practice well."
Du Fei's cultivation speed was beyond Long Huan's imagination, and in just three months, he broke through to the Kongyuan boundary. The biggest difference between the Kongyuan boundary and the Potian boundary is whether one can control the elements of nature. The Potian boundary cannot control elements, and both the Qiyuan boundary and the Potian boundary are only laying the foundation for future development. In fact, Long Huan did not know that Du Fei had reached the Kontrol boundary from the Qiyuan boundary in just over a year. If it were an ordinary Kontrol master, it would be unimaginable to reach the Kontrol boundary from the Qiyuan boundary without two or three years of hard practice. Du Fei's speed was not without reason: first, he was not an ordinary Kontrol master; second, he had the unique cultivation method and Tianyuan jue of the Golden Family; and most importantly, his efforts and experiences were unimaginable to others, making his achievements not unreasonable.
At this time, Du Fei was excited and envied those masters who could use martial skills. Now he can fight like them, thinking of this, Du Fei had a complacent face.
Du Fei excitedly ran to Long Huan's front and said: "Uncle Huan, I broke through! I broke through, hahaha!"
Long Huan saw Du Fei's excited face and was taken aback, thinking to himself: "This kid is really not an ordinary person, breaking through in such a short time, half the time I expected." Long Huan turned his head and smiled: "Breaking through is good, breaking through is good, Uncle Huan can rest assured now. Little Fei, come, Uncle Huan has something to give you as a gift for your breakthrough." As he spoke, a pure white jade stone appeared in his hand.
Du Fei quickly ran to Long Huan's front with a smiling face. Long Huan handed the jade stone in his hand to Du Fei and said, "Xiao Fei, take this, it is Uncle Huan's most satisfying martial skill so far, called Kuanglong Huozhan."
Du Fei handed the jade stone to Long Huan with a puzzled expression, asking: "Crazy Dragon Fire Slash, is this Uncle Huan's most powerful martial skill?" Du Fei couldn't bear to part with the jade stone, turning it over and over in his hands.
"It's not a particularly powerful martial skill, it's probably around mid-tier in the Sacred Realm. If you practice now, you'll only be able to master the moves, but its power will be greatly reduced because you don't have strong yuanqi to support it, making it difficult to fully unleash its power. However, even if you just master the moves, it will still be more powerful than other lower-tier martial skills." Long Huan carefully explained to Du Fei.
"What, a Saint-level intermediate martial skill? That's a treasure that many controllers on the continent dream of! Uncle Huan, you're too good to me." Du Fei said, opening his arms and shaking his head coquettishly towards Long Huan. "Uncle Huan, does that mean that even if I practice this Crazy Dragon Fire Slash now, I still can't fully unleash its power? Then what level of power can I achieve with my current yuanqi density and quantity?"
"Judging from your current amount and density of yuanqi, if you use it with all your might, it should be around mid-tier Earth level. I'm not too sure myself, only after you've practiced will you know for certain."
"How much time will it take for me to complete this exercise?" Du Fei asked anxiously.
Long Huan looked at Du Fei with a smile all over his face: "I spent about five years completing this martial skill."
"What? Five years."
