Chapter 252: Chapter 55: Subduing the Bone Dragon_5
Each circulatory cycle of True Qi within his body restored a fraction of Ah Dai’s strength. After eighteen cycles, his internal injuries had improved dramatically due to the immense vitality of his True Qi, and his strength was rapidly recovering. By the twenty-seventh cycle, the Silver body in his Dantian had regained its former luster. Ah Dai did not stop, continuing his cultivation. After leaving Tian Gang Mountain, he had not fully practiced the grand circulation of 81 cycles, and this was just the opportunity to consolidate his power.
It took an entire day and night to complete the eighty-one cycles. In the early morning, Ah Dai opened his eyes, feeling the surging energy filling his body and the unusual exhilaration in his chest. Hearing the even sound of breathing, Ah Dai found that Yan Shi was sleeping beside the bed. It was obvious that he had been protecting him the whole time while Yan Li was snoring on the side bed. Ah Dai felt a warmth in his heart. He floated to the ground without a sound and gently patted Yan Shi’s shoulder.
Disturbed, Yan Shi woke up in a shock. When he saw that it was Ah Dai who disturbed him, he relaxed, "Brother, how are you? Have you recovered your strength?"
Gazing upon Yan Shi’s worn-out appearance, Ah Dai was moved, "Big brother, better get some rest. My strength has been fully recovered."
Yan Shi revealed a pleased look, "Good, good that you’re alright now. I’m really exhausted. I’ll take a nap first. There’s some food on the table which you can help yourself to." He finished, turned into the bed, and before his body could settle, the sound of his snoring began to ring out.
Ah Dai placed a blanket on Yan Shi, turned around and walked to the table. Having not eaten for two days, he was indeed a little hungry. On the table were some small dishes and six or seven steamed buns, already cold. It looked like Yan Shi had ordered them for him last night. He didn’t realize his cultivation had taken this long.
After eating breakfast, Ah Dai took off his dirty clothes. When he was seriously hurt by the Bone Dragon, not only were his clothes torn, but they were stained with lots of his own blood. He changed into his last set of clothes taken from Stone Pond Town - it seems that he really had to buy some clothes to wear. He was exhausting his clothing supply too quickly.
Ah Dai was keen to know the status of the Bone Dragon which had been taken into the Dragon’s Blood. However, he didn’t dare to release the Bone Dragon easily here. Not to mention that this room was relatively small and might not accommodate the Bone Dragon, if the Bone Dragon came out and destroyed the building here, Chairman Kary might fight him to death. How could he find out about the Bone Dragon? Ah Dai sat in a chair, took out the Dragon’s Blood and watched the faint blue light flickering on it, pondering continuously.
Suddenly, Ah Dai remembered the scene when he captured the Bone Dragon. It seemed that Sheng Xie was telling him at the bottom of his heart to use the Dragon’s Blood to capture the Bone Dragon. That meant Sheng Xie’s thoughts could be communicated to him through a certain channel. But what was this channel? If he could find this channel, then he could communicate with Sheng Xie. What a wonderful thing that would be!
Channel, channel; Ah Dai thought that Sheng Xie couldn’t speak. The only way for him to communicate with Sheng Xie was through spiritual power. Like a lightbulb moment, his mind suddenly opened up to this realization after receiving the teachings of the Sword Saint of the Tian Gang. He quickly spurred his spiritual power, cautiously pouring it into the Dragon’s Blood in his hand.
The Dragon’s Blood didn’t repel his injected spiritual power. It seemed that he had entered a blue ocean. In this ocean filled with enormous energy, there were many things which were the items he had stored in the Dragon’s Blood. He expanded his spiritual power and was delighted to find that the ocean still contained two powerful life forms. That must be Sheng Xie and the Bone Dragon that he had taken in.
