Chapter Fifty-One Little Flame

  In the misty forest, Lin Dong's tightly closed eyes slowly opened, and his face still had a lingering joyful expression. After the refinement of Shi Xuan's light and shadow, the meridian line of "Qingyuan Gong" directly changed from four to seven, which meant that the efficiency of Qingyuan Gong was increased by nearly one fold!

  "Ah..."

  A mouthful of white gas was spat out from Lin Dong's mouth, and immediately he took out a bottle from his bosom, pouring out two fire-red pellets. These were the pellets refined from the three-product spiritual medicine, Flame Fruit. In this month, Lin Dong had also secretly used the Stone Symbol Spiritual Liquid to exchange for quite a few spiritual medicines. After all, now that he had reached the Earth Realm, in order to increase his cultivation speed, the amount of spiritual medicines and pellets needed was not small either.

  Lin Dong stuffed the two elixir pills into his mouth, but didn't swallow them immediately. He slowly closed his eyes, and with a slight movement of his mind, a deep blue Yuan force burst out from his Dan Tian. This Yuan force first circulated within his body, then suddenly turned into a mysterious meridian that he had never entered before.

  This meridian is the first one that "Qingyuan Gong" needs to open up. After the previous observation of Guangying, which was as if he were personally on the scene, Lin Dong almost instantly found this hidden meridian in his body.

  As the yuan force surged into this meridian, the imagined feeling of blockage also came immediately, and this closed meridian was as difficult to pass through as a mountain road that had never been opened.

  Facing the blocked meridians, Lin Dong's Yuan force stirred, and with just a small segment of it being cleared, it dissipated completely. However, immediately following that, another surge of Yuan force arrived, like a most diligent and hardworking laborer, tirelessly and devotedly opening up...

  This wave after wave of opening lasted for a full half hour, and the original energy in Lin Dong's Dantian was almost depleted. However, at this point, he had only cleared about one-tenth of the entire meridian. It wasn't until now that Lin Dong clearly felt just how difficult it was to open up his meridians.

  And this is just the first meridian, the later meridians will be even more difficult, no wonder Lin Xiao spent three months to open up all four meridians.

  "Hmmph!"

  Feeling the depletion of yuanqi in his dantian, Lin Dong's throat rolled and the two danwan that had been placed in his mouth slid down his throat into his body. In an instant, the pure medicinal power spread out and was absorbed into his dantian, only then did the feeling of depletion begin to fade.

  And once again possessing the power of yuan within his body, Lin Dong continued to work hard, stubbornly opening up that blocked meridian.

  Opening up the meridians is not a task for a day or two, but this statement is obviously not a big problem for Lin Dong, who has a strong foundation. The yuan force in Lin Dong's dantian was nearly exhausted six times and filled with dan pills. After that, the first meridian was finally opened up by Lin Dong!

  At the moment when the meridians were unblocked, Lin Dong suddenly felt that he had become more sensitive to the flow of yuan force in the world. The skin where the meridians passed through also had a subtle suction power, absorbing the yuan force from the world and circulating it inside his body before pouring into his dantian.

  He could feel the speed of his yuan force absorption increasing by a lot compared to before, and Lin Dong's eyes also flashed with a hint of joy. The difference in efficiency between cultivating the ancient manual and not cultivating it was indeed incomparable.

  Lin's eyes opened with a satisfied and contented heart, only to find that the sky had already darkened. He clicked his tongue in surprise, realizing that time had indeed passed unnoticed during his cultivation.

  He stretched his waist, Lin Dong put the "Qingyuan Gong" secret book into his arms, and in one day, he had already opened up the first meridian. This speed, if Lin Zhen Tian and others knew about it, would probably be stunned again. However, Lin Dong didn't think there was anything remarkable about it. After all, with so many spiritual medicine pills supporting him, if his speed still couldn't be increased, then that would really be too mediocre.

  He stood up, and Lin Dong suddenly whistled towards the depths of the forest. As his whistle faded away, a few minutes later, a fiery red shadow suddenly darted out from the forest and pounced into Lin Dong's arms.

  With the last light of the setting sun, the fiery shadow also appeared in shape. It was a small beast about the size of a small dog, with its entire body presenting a fiery red color, looking like flames burning. From its appearance, it should be a young tiger, but the fire python tail coiled on the back of the young tiger gave it an extra hint of mystery and eeriness.

  This little beast was naturally the fire python cub that Lin Dong had obtained a month ago, and Lin Dong had named it Xiao Yan. After a month of nurturing, Xiao Yan's growth rate was also extremely astonishing. According to Lin Dong's guess, now it was probably able to rival someone who had tempered their body to the fifth level.

  For Xiao Yan's growth rate, even Lin Zhen Tian and the others felt it was quite unbelievable, but Lin Dong didn't find it strange because he used the Stone Symbol Spirit Liquid to nourish this little guy every day. Occasionally, he would even use the spirit liquid to give him a bubble bath, washing his muscles and bones. If Lin Zhen Tian and the others were to know about this treatment, they might directly spit out old blood.

  The little flame in his arms, affectionately nestled in Lin Dong's embrace, was already accustomed to him. As the first person it saw when it opened its eyes, plus a month of familiarity, it had subconsciously taken Lin Dong as the closest person. These demonic beasts, although ferocious when grown up, would become the most loyal companions if trained properly.

  "You little glutton!"

  Seeing Xiao Yan's coquettish behavior, Lin Dong also shook his head helplessly, took out a bottle from his bosom, and dripped two drops of Shiyu Ling liquid into Xiao Yan's open tiger mouth.

  Shi Fu Ling liquid entered his mouth, and Xiao Yan was finally satisfied, stretching out his pink tongue to add a touch to Lin Dong's face.

  "Go back, today's meal is over."

  He picked up the bottle, Lin Dong grabbed Xiao Yan and put him on his shoulder, then turned around and ran quickly towards the outside of the forest. Xiao Yan's tender wailing also echoed through the forest.

  …

  The moon is like a silver plate, hanging in the sky, its icy light enveloping the earth.

  In a room, Qingtan lay quietly on the bed, with a thin quilt outlining the girl's increasingly seductive and beautiful curves.

  Beside the soundly sleeping Qing Tan, there was a figure sitting cross-legged. Upon closer inspection, it was Lin Dong. At this moment, his face was solemn and he was operating the "Qing Yuan Art", continuously absorbing the dark energy that was drifting out of Qing Tan's body.

  After entering the local domain, Lin Dong also needs to absorb a lot of Yin evil energy. However, for that kind of ordinary evil energy between heaven and earth, he can't help but look down on it. He has no choice but to focus his attention on Qing Tan.

  So, after a brief discussion with Qingtan, he finally got permission from the blushing girl's cheeks, which allowed him to practice for two hours every night after Qingtan fell asleep.

  During these two periods of time, Lin Dong was able to freely absorb the dark and cold aura within Qing Tan's body...

  In the first day or two, Qingtan still felt a bit unnatural, after all, no matter what girl, sleeping under a man's eyelids wouldn't be too natural a thing, although she completely trusted Lin Dong, but girls have thin skin, if this got out, it would be somewhat unfavorable.

  However, this unfamiliarity gradually dissipated after several days, and she also found that with Lin Dong by her side, the dark energy that would occasionally erupt within her body had also subsided a lot. This actually made her sleep even more sweetly.

  With this benefit, Qingtan no longer resisted and acquiesced in Lin Dong's somewhat excessive request...

  "Ah..."

  In the quiet room, Lin Dong took a deep breath and slowly opened his tightly closed eyes, feeling the faint coolness emanating from his dantian. He also smiled slightly, carefully getting out of bed and gazing at the girl who was hugging Xiao Yan and sleeping peacefully.

  Soft moonlight pours in through the window and shines on the girl's quiet, gentle, and beautiful face, making it extremely moving.

  Lin Dong quietly and gently pulled up the quilt that had been partially kicked off, then silently exited the room.

  As Lin Dong exited the room, the curve of the girl's mouth on the bed also became increasingly sweet...
