Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 21 – Su Yun's Tribulation

A small lightning bolt fell down, seemingly landing on Su Yun's head, but the lightning bolt seemed to pass through his body and directly hit the qi and blood egg formed by his vital energy in his body.

The qi and blood egg formed by his vital energy was immediately filled to the brim with violent blood and was almost about to burst on the spot!

Although this lightning bolt was just a small part of the lightning that struck the dragon, the heavenly and earthly energy contained within it exceeded the limit that Su Yun could accommodate at this stage!

After all, the big black snake was an old monster who had been practicing for a long time, while Su Yun, although he had the foundation of the "Master Nurtures Qi" taught by Mr. Wild Fox, had only been practicing for a little over a month.

His foundation was far inferior to that of the big black snake, and if he rashly seized the heavenly and earthly energy, he would definitely be blown to pieces and die.

"The transformation of the Honglu, the creation of the universe as a tool!"

Just as the heavenly and earthly energy in the lightning was about to burst the qi and blood egg, Su Yun activated the first part of the Honglu Transformation technique, and the heavenly and earthly furnace in his body suddenly sucked the excess heavenly and earthly energy into the furnace!

The egg undulated and swallowed the heavenly and earthly energy.

The surface of the egg lit up, reflecting a twisted, coiled, yet strong and fierce body.

His blood and qi were undergoing a transformation from a crocodile dragon to a flood dragon!

The excess blood and qi were transformed into his own blood and qi by the heavenly and earthly furnace through the transformation of the Honglu.

The heavenly and earthly furnace refines the yin and yang energies of oneself into vital energy, and this refining process is called the creation of the universe as a tool, also known as transformation. Therefore, when practicing the Honglu Transformation, one will often feel hungry and need to eat six or seven meals a day.

The yin and yang energies in the body are transformed into vital energy, which needs to be supplemented from food.

Qiu Shuijing did not tell them whether the Honglu Transformation could refine the power of nature, but Su Yun was pleasantly surprised to find that the Honglu Transformation could also refine the heavenly and earthly energy!

Encouraged, he intensified his refining of the heavenly and earthly energy to transform himself.

However, in the eyes of Hua Hu, Li Xiaofan, and other fox demons, the lightning struck Su Yun's forehead, and the next moment, the place where Su Yun was previously injured exploded, and his vital energy and blood spurted out!

Several fox demons hurriedly rushed forward to block it, but they couldn't stop it at all!

Moreover, the blood and qi were so hot that they seemed to be boiling.

This was because he was refining the heavenly and earthly energy through the Honglu Transformation, and his body was producing blood too quickly, his vital energy was improving too quickly, and his body could not bear it.

He needed to slowly cultivate and improve his physical functions, strengthen his heart, lungs, meridians, and fascia, in order to accommodate more blood and qi. Otherwise, even if he could refine the heavenly and earthly energy, it would only result in the loss of blood and qi.

This is like a weak person eating ginseng. If they eat too much, it will exceed the body's capacity and cause a nosebleed, which is the body's self-protection mechanism.

The fox demons did not know this, and Qing Qiuyue was so anxious that she was about to cry.

Fortunately, Su Yun's wound soon stopped bleeding, which relieved them somewhat.

Suddenly, another lightning bolt fell from the clouds in the sky, and a small lightning bolt also fell on Su Yun.

The wound that had stopped bleeding on Su Yun's body began to make a sizzling sound again. The four foxes hurriedly rushed to block it, and after a while, the wound stopped bleeding.

Just as Hua Hu breathed a sigh of relief, another lightning bolt fell, and Su Yun began to bleed again.

The four foxes looked at each other, and Qing Qiuyue stopped crying.

Su Yun had lost so much blood and vital energy, yet he still had a long life and abundant blood and qi, which was really strange.

"Let him be."

Hua Hu said, "Observing the changes of the whole village eating the transformation of the dragon is more important!"

The three little foxes nodded one after another and no longer paid attention to Su Yun, who was bleeding from time to time.When the fourth thunderbolt fell, Qing Qiuyue, the little vixen, quietly moved her butt away from Su Yun, showing disgust and afraid of getting his blood on her beautiful fur.

Hua Hu, Hu Buping, and Li Xiaofan were used to it. Hua Hu said to Li Xiaofan, "Stay away from him. Be careful not to get hit by the thunderbolt and hurt yourself."

Li Xiaofan agreed and quickly moved away from Su Yun.

In the thunderbolt, the snake in the ravine had already transformed into a dragon. The front half of the black dragon was like black iron, standing on the reef, constantly stretching its body and changing its posture to withstand the thunderbolt in different ways. The lower half of the black dragon was still a snake body, constantly shedding its skin in the thunderbolt.

The thunderbolt in the sky became denser and denser, turning the water in the ravine crimson and scattered with flesh and blood, some of which were burned and some were still fresh.

Even the black dragon was hit so badly that its white bones were exposed!

This was the calamity that the snake demon had to endure to transform into a dragon, extremely dangerous!

But danger not only came from the thunderbolt, but also from all around.

When the density of the thunderbolt slightly decreased, suddenly there was a fire in the mountainside, and hundreds of yellow rat-wolf people rushed to the edge of the ravine with torches.

Among them, there were more than ten yellow rat-wolf people carrying a wooden platform, about ten feet high and divided into five layers, each layer hollow with an old yellow rat-wolf sitting cross-legged like a human, with its front paws pinching its fingers on its knees and closing its eyes in concentration.

These old yellow rat-wolves had already refined their own spiritual powers and were the great demons of Huang Village.

Their spiritual powers also emerged, mostly small things like bells, drums, hairpins, and small white flags.

Whoosh...

Torches were thrown out one after another, inserted on both sides of the ravine, illuminating it like daylight.

"We, Huang Village, will never share the same sky with you!"

The old village chief of Huang Village, the old yellow rat-wolf, stood on the fifth layer of the platform, paused his crutch, and shouted sternly, "Today, either you die or I die! Invoke the spiritual powers--"

The other four old yellow rat-wolves each activated their spiritual powers. Bells flew out of the wooden platform and landed on the head of the black dragon, and toxic smoke and mist surged, engulfing the black dragon.

Another old yellow rat-wolf shook the drum, which shook people's souls and confused their minds. For a while, many monsters with weak willpower in the forest were confused, staggering and laughing, singing and dancing.

Another old yellow rat-wolf shouted and cast a spell. A hairpin flew out and turned into a flying sword, piercing into the toxic mist to kill the black dragon.

The five great demons each used their own methods, and the other rat-wolves rushed into the ravine, turned around from a distance, raised their butts and tails, and heard a popping sound as yellow smoke flew out from their buttocks and rushed towards the black dragon in the toxic mist.

The black dragon was not only facing the thunderbolt but also the toxic mist and other spiritual powers. Being hit by this yellow smoke, it couldn't help but feel dizzy and nauseous, suddenly opening its long dragon mouth and vomiting on the reef.

- It was not poisoned, it was just because the fart was too stinky.

The yellow rat-wolves were overjoyed and shouted, "We've got the whole village to eat! Now that he's weak, let's all attack and kill him!"

Hua Hu was proud, "I came up with the name 'Whole Village to Eat'!"

The leaves in the forest shook, and a flock of large birds flew out, which were the human-faced owl of Linyi Village, each with a wingspan of eight or nine feet, hovering over the ravine.

The human-faced owls held their bows and arrows with their two claws, bent their bows and shot arrows, and the arrows whistled and shot towards the black dragon crossing the calamity in the ravine.Suddenly, the sound of hooves echoed through the forest, and trees were knocked over as a group of large black bulls charged into the Snake Gorge, dragging large sickles behind them. These bulls were strong and powerful, with thick skin and meat, and they charged towards the black dragon in a frenzy.

The sickles they carried were about seven feet long, a foot wide, and an inch thick, and were originally used in the countryside to cut hay for feeding cattle. After the disaster in Tianmen Town, where all the people died, the sickles became the weapons of the bull demons.

Other demons, such as goat demons and cat demons, also rushed out of the mountains and into the Snake Gorge, attacking the black dragon in the midst of its transformation.

The black dragon was furious. As a snake, he had a capricious temperament. Su Yun was only able to observe him because he had helped him shed his skin. But on a regular day, he would attack anyone who dared to enter his territory, either poisoning or eating them. When he was hungry, he would come out to hunt, and many demons near Tianmen Town had fallen prey to him.

The black dragon turned around and fought against the group of demons that had charged towards him. However, his new scales had not yet hardened, and he was quickly beaten by the demons, leaving him covered in injuries. In addition, lightning strikes continued to hit him, making him look pitiful.

Hua Hu and other fox demons watched in awe. Although they had also benefited greatly from watching the entire village transform into a dragon, seeing the village being beaten so miserably also made them feel relieved and cheered loudly.

After cheering, Hua Hu glanced at Su Yun and was surprised to see that he was no longer bleeding.

"Little Yun couldn't have bled to death, could he?"

Hua Hu's heart trembled, and he was about to test Su Yun's body temperature when Su Yun's blood suddenly became extremely strong, and his blood manifested as a crocodile-dragon tattoo on his body.

The tattoo wandered on his body, roaring angrily from time to time, and then flew out of his body, appearing behind him.

Hua Hu was startled, but then he saw that the crocodile-dragon tattoo that had manifested from Su Yun's blood had undergone a transformation, just like the entire village had during their transformation, and had transformed into a dragon!

Moreover, the speed of Su Yun's transformation was many times faster than that of the entire village!

At the same time, a cry came from the opposite side of the mountain cliff, "It's him! Xuan Shu, it's the person from the Ghost Market!"

Hua Hu looked over and saw that one of the four people on the other side was pointing at Su Yun, shouting loudly, "He killed Tong Fan, our senior!"

At this moment, the Snake Gorge was lit up by flames, illuminating the faces of the people on both sides of the mountain cliff.
