Ten days pa.s.sed in the twinkling of an eye. Jiang Yi spent all these days in a cave deep in Thunder Ridges. He would hide only when the Thunder Fire strolled over at night. During the rest of the time, he stayed in the cave, refining thunder stones.

He had refined over 2,000 thunder stones over the past ten days, and he stopped at this moment. He… was able to ignore the most powerful electricity that popped out, even if he refined the thunder stones at the fastest speed!

His body had grown extremely tolerant of the thunder. He was completely immune to the electricity that was released from the thunder stones. Therefore, he stopped refining thunder stones. The moment that he opened his eyes, thunderbolts even sparkled in his eyes. It was very strange.

“I should be around there, right?”

His sharp eyes glanced outside. Over ten days, he was tortured by those over 2,000 thunder stones for at least 10,000 times. Every part of his body was shocked by thunderbolts for tens of thousands of times. He wouldn’t be killed by the electricity in the Thunder Fire at least, if not by the real thunder.

Jiang Yi rested for a while before his eyes glistened. He stamped on the ground and shot out like a wild dragon. His eyes swept around like a sword. Soon, he fixed on a ball of thunder fire.

“I’ll risk it. Whether I live or die depends on this.”

He looked firm and cold and slowly approached the Thunder Fire. Though his body was very resistant to the thunderbolts and the Fire Spirit Pearl protected him from being burned by the heat, this Thunder Fire was way too powerful. No one could predict what would happen if he got close to it.

Five miles, three miles… one mile!

Jiang Yi held his breath and tightened his body. He got slower, almost as slow as the walking speed of an ordinary man. His eyes stared at the Thunder Fire surrounding a mountain in the front. His breathing grew faster.

Five hundred meters, he was fine.

Four hundred meters, he was still fine.

Three hundred meters, something went wrong.

Chi! Chi!

A bolt of thunder as thick as an arm surged out like a flood dragon. It was so fast that it was impossible for Jiang Yi to dodge in such a close distance. Besides, the thunder was even able to track its target automatically. Thus, as expected, Jiang Yi was struck.

This bolt of thunder was ten times more powerful than the strongest one in the thunder stones. Therefore… as expected, Jiang Yi began trembling violently as though he had a seizure. His body let out a burnt smell. Robes were instantly burnt to ashes; all his brows, beard, and hair were on fire. Though the Fire Cloud Armor appeared in time to protect him, he had suffered multiple burns all over his skin. His newly-grown hair was all gone, the same for his eyebrows and beard.

“Ahh… Ahh… Ahh… Ahh!”

He howled rhythmically with pain and fell down onto a few stony peaks, smas.h.i.+ng the peaks. He still quivered non-stop and writhed around in agony. He felt like he was thrown to h.e.l.l. The pain was literally killing him.

However…

His eyes were filled with ecstasy, for he was still alive!

The scary thunder in the Thunder Fire didn’t kill him, which meant that there was still hope. As long as the thunder of the Thunder Fire couldn’t kill him instantly, he still had a glimmer of hope.

After a long time…!

The treacherous pain in his body finally subsided. He lay on the ground, gasping for air, like a dog. Soon, he burst into laughter. He laughed so hard that tears came out, and his wounds were exasperated. Then, laughter turned into a howl of pain.

After two minutes, he recovered his calmness and sat cross-legged, taking out some medicine for recuperation. He only got up at night and flew up.

The healing herb worked well, and his perfect body had an amazing rehabilitation ability. After a day of healing, all the burns on his body turned into scars. He would be fully recovered after the next recuperation session.

Touching his bare head and eyebrows, he looked at the thunder fire in a distance, which he found so lovely and amiable. The electricity of the Thunder Fire couldn’t kill him so he could try to get shocked by the thunder again and again to enhance his tolerance towards the electricity.

When his body was able to completely ignore the thunder attack from the Thunder Fire, it was the time to collect the Thunder Fire. When he finished refining the Thunder Fire, it was the time that he left the Sin islands.

Thunder Fire roamed around at night. He didn’t dare to go closer to it. What if he was struck by the thunder and there happened to be another ball of Thunder Fire in the vicinity, even G.o.d would never survive the successive lightning strikes.

Therefore, he took out some thunder stones and continued to refine them. Though the electricity in the thunder stones was very weak, it could still be used to toughen his body and enhance his resistance to the thunder. It was better than nothing.

Early in the morning on the next day, he flew out of the cave and went straight to a ball of Thunder Fire. His valiant spirit made him look as heroic as a martyr that was going to sacrifice his life.

Chi! Chi!

However, he only kept the martyr image for a while before a thunder as thick as a human’s arm whizzed over and shot him immediately. He crashed down and repeated his journey to h.e.l.l again.

It was obvious!

His injuries became slightly less severe this time, but it still took him a long time to heal. The night was arriving in two hours so he didn’t take the risk and flew back to the cave, continuing to refine the thunder stones.

The same event repeated on the next day.

After being struck by thunderbolts, his injuries were once again less severe. He only took half of the day to recover. The moment that his wounds got better, he rushed to the Thunder Fire and sought the abuse again.

Three days, five days… eight days!

On the eighth day, the thunder within the Thunder Fire was no longer able to hurt him and only caused continuous trembling. Jiang Yi looked more determined; his eyes got brighter, as sparkling as the stars.

Despite this, he didn’t take the risk. He could still handle one bolt of thunder, but how about two, three, or even ten? Who knew how many thunderbolts there were in the Thunder Fire? However, there was no hurry. He withstood the pain while enjoying the thunder for his body to get accustomed and to evolve.

Half a month later!

Jiang Yi flew out of the cave and roamed around the mountains like a rainbow. A ball of Thunder Fire floated towards him, but he wasn’t bothered by it and rushed straight towards it.

Chi! Chi!

When he was 300 meters away, a wisp of thunder inside the Thunder Fire turned into a thunder dragon and whizzed out, merging into his body. He showed a very slight tremble and continued going forward.

Chi! Chi!

Another thunder dragon shot at him, he started to shake more violently, but he suddenly sped up and dashed to the Thunder Fire madly.

Chi! Chi!

By the time that the third thunder dragon whizzed out, he was near the Thunder Fire. The Fire Spirit Pearl radiated with blinding red light, instantly taking in the Thunder Fire.

“I made it. Hahaha!”

Jiang Yi was still shaking, but he wasn’t bothered by it at all. He looked up at the sky and laughed loudly.

Taking in one ball of Thunder Fire meant that he would be able to take in the second… the third. He would refine the Thunder Fire and master an extremely horrifying attack method.

Two months had pa.s.sed, and he endured all kinds of suffering in the thunder ridges for a whole month. He was struck by thunder for countless times, was hurt for countless times, and hovered between life and death because of the pain for countless times. However, everything turned out to be worthwhile. His efforts paid off.

Jiang Yi took a deep voice and glanced at the sky on the east. He revealed a brilliant smile and whispered in a voice that only he could hear, “Ruoxue… wait for me!”
