387 PRACTICING IN THE HELL-PLANE-The second process was a bit difficult. Weapon Tempering was an art Li Meng had not done for a very long time because the energy he managed to summon back in the Qi continent wasn’t enough to temper then anymore.
When his body finally came into contact with the energy of the hell-plane, even his acupoints started absorbing energy.
” Hell energy is coagulating within the acupoints. that is a discovery. Any assumptions on why this is happening?” Li Meng asked.
“If I have to deduct something from the current situation I would say that it is because of the abundance and quality of hell-energy of the plane. When you came into contact with the energy here, your acupoints began to absorb it. Their thirst for energy may have started the process.” The Keeper replied.
” What are your suggestions then?” Li Meng asked.
“Well, you have already opened up all the acupoints within your body, you wouldn’t be able to replenish energy from within the body. But you can use the energy to once again upgrade the life weapons that were created within the acupoints.”
The energy began to rapidly seep into Li Meng’s body. he then routed huge amounts of it into the acupoints and then began to use the ‘Weapon-Tempering art’. The energy began to coagulate first and surround the weapons.
Once the weapons were surrounded with energy, the art began to slowly break down the life weapons. Each crack within the weapon resulted in immense pain for Li Meng. Veins were appearing.
He managed to hold on as the breakdown of the first weapon took place. The weapon was slowly being broken down, and the energy of hell was being mixed up. the process continued until coagulation of energy remained within the acupoint.
.....
“It is time to move on to the next phase.” Li Meng said to himself.
The energy began to slowly solidify. the first thing that materialized was an outline of the weapon, and after that, the energy began to flow in, and slowly the materialization took place. After a brief period, the weapon was finally formed, forged out of the energy of hell.
When the life weapon was reconnected with Li Meng’s body, a powerful feeling flowed through it.
“This is way too powerful when compared to its predecessor.” Li Meng said.
” It is supposed to be. I hope you remember that the energy of this hell is way higher in quality than what is present within the Qi continent. The feeling you are experiencing now is because of the energy quality.”
“You are going to get an even stronger feeling as you proceed with the process. But the difficulty tempering the weapon is going to increase as more and more weapons are reformers.” Li Meng returned to the ‘Weapon Tempering’ process.
Days later-
Li Meng underestimated the whole procedure. he thought he would be able to formulate the whole thing pretty quickly, but the process was extremely difficult for him to execute. When the tenth weapon was formulated, the amount of energy required to formulate a weapon increased substantially.
“It feels exactly like when I was trying to cultivate my body.” Li Meng said.
” That is because it is.” The Keeper said.
“Are you saying that I might experience another metamorphosis after I temper all the weapons?” Li Meng asked.
” It sure feels like that.” The Keeper said.
As predicted by the Keeper, as soon as Li Meng tempered all the life weapons within his acupoints, a process of metamorphosis began. At this time, however, Li Meng was not forced into an unconscious state.
A lot of energy was rushing into his body, as the break-down process started. One by one his bones broke down and so did his tendons and ligaments. They were the first to be reformed. After the bone reforming took place, the next stage was blood vessels and muscle.
The energy required increased with each subsequent stage, but the energy within hell was extremely dense. Li Meng’s metamorphosis didn’t thin down the energy a bit, but there was an adequate amount present around.
After the vessels and muscles were formally reformed, the next stage was Li Meng’s organs. It required a good amount of energy, but it was subsequently faster. When the process ended, Li meng’s skin began to get reformed.
The whole process was extremely painful, but Li Meng was no novice when it came to suffering. He knew that the output after the process was over would be incredible. As expected, Li Meng’s height increased slightly and he felt quite a good amount of power flowing through his body.
“That was one hell of a procedure. The metamorphosis doesn’t let my expectations down. I feel that my strength has almost doubled, with my affinity for Hell-energy and the plane itself increasing.” Li Meng said.
“That is to be expected. Can you tell what is the status of the Yin-seed within your body?”‘ The Keeper asked.
” It seems to have grown two other roots and a novel stem.” Li Meng said.
” As expected, it is growing with you. The metamorphosis must have aided in its growth. Your ‘Extreme-Yin Body’ is increasing in power.” The Keeper commented. Somehow it felt like his voice wasn’t exactly positive.
“That’s a good thing, right.”
“I told you about the Extreme-yang treasure. We need to increase the intensity of the dosage of yan-type herbs into your body. We need to speed up the search for it. We also need to get out of here as soon as possible, as the hell-energy in here is aiding the Yin-seed’s growth.” The Keeper said.
” I guess I will have to jump into formulating the laws faster.” Li Meng said.
“Not right now. Since the metamorphosis has taken place, your affinity with the world, its energy, and its laws has increased. The law formulation would be easy. What we need to concentrate on now is a treasure which I find within this world while absorbing and scanning the surrounding energy.” The Keeper said.
‘if I am not wrong, there is a Hell-water spring flowing somewhere below the ground and there should be an entrance to it somewhere here.”
“Is that spring really necessary?” Li Meng asked.
“How does a resource that can not only help in increasing the quality and quantity of yin-energy within the artifact but also facilitate the growth of Yin-type plants, and aid your cultivation in the Qi Emperor realm so that you don’t have to come back to hell anytime soon sounds?” The Keeper asked.
” Incredible. Let us grab it and escape from hell.”
