Building One's Own Energy Part Three

The golden lightning bolt filled with a potent essence of Heaven and Earth energy disappeared the moment it hit the roof of the building where Fell currently cultivated. The next moment, it pierced through several floors and instantly appeared on top of Fell's sitting figure. Fell instantly felt the pressure surrounding him, sparks appeared in a one-meter radius around him and the air crackled around him. His eyes opened in an instant and with a glance, he spotted the dangerous phenomenon.

Time seemed to stop right before the golden lightning bolt seemed to pierce through Fell's head, his heart tightened in his chest as he made his utmost in braving the current tribulation. It didn't take him much effort to clear his mind from the negative thought as he had already readied himself for death the moment he began his breakthrough.

"Come!" he smiled as his eyes opened in a split second and locked on the lightning bolt in the air. His eyes were calm in front of heaven's assault, and a slight smile crept on his juvenile face.

The next moment the lightning bolt made contact with his head and the whole room turned into a sublimation of light. His body trembled from the shock as he felt the lightning bolt course through his body. The air around him boomed and a powerful shock wave washed the large hall. The space in the large hall was ravaged by the shock wave as dangerous air currents appeared all over it.

Wind felt the change happen in the room and the next moment his body hit by an air wave, and he found himself projected through the large hall. His body flew through the room at breakneck speed before hitting the wall behind him. A muffled scream escaped from his lips as he felt his internal organ move during his body's propulsion; a strange metallic taste appeared in his mouth and horrid smells of burned skin and fabric assaulted his noses.

"What the hell is happening?!", he thought as he felt his consciousness slip into darkness, "Good luck brother…"? He thought as his body turned limp; his mind and body had already been wasted by the anterior training and with the tempering he had gone through due to Fell's own breakthrough. The damage he had taken during the throw was the straw that broke the camel's back, thus rendering him temporally disabled.

But that didn't change anything to Fell's breakthrough, as Wind wasn't of any use to his senior's breakthrough. Fell could sense the lightning bolt rush through his meridian in the direction of his Dantian. The walls of his energy paths were burned by the hazardous lightning filled with Heaven and Earth energy, but Fell couldn't quit anymore at this point. And the only option he had was to grit his teeth as failure mean the end of his cultivation path in the best case; and even death in the worst possible case. Thus the juvenile cultivator from the Core could only brace his will in front of the horrid pain that traveled through his body.

The energy from the lightning bolt first ravaged his meridian, then as it traveled toward his Dantian part of the energy dissipated toward the rest of his body. He felt his innards cook under the extreme temperature that emanated from the hazardous lightning bolt. As for his flesh and bones, although he experienced some damage, the fact that he was also a body cultivator made his own physique strong enough to shoulder the pain. But it wasn't the same for the inside of his body; his innards and nervous system were taking damages that they had never faced before.

His brain was assaulted by the enormous amount of pain information, and his body couldn't stop shaking under it. He had only absorbed the lightning bolt for a few instants but his body had already taken more damage than he had ever taken in his whole life. It was one of the few times that he felt that he was facing up most destruction, and this time his opponent was heaven itself. Thankfully the lightning didn't only contain a destructive force, but it was also filled with its counterpart. Every place inside Fell's body where the lightning had passed through, would begin recovering at an incredible speed; burned flesh and innards swiftly regrow into stronger and healthier organs. Due to the potency of Heaven and Earth energy, the healing was as strong as the hazardous energy contained in the lightning bolt.

Fell sensed the change happen to his body causing him to be slightly relieved. But he didn't put down his mental defense as he knew that the worst had yet to come, his senses locked on the lightning bolt could clearly see that the hazardous energy was closing the gap with his Dantian in seconds. He knew that the damage to one's Dantian wasn't the same as with meridians, one could live and cultivate with a partially damaged meridian. But a destructed Dantian only meant the complete severing of one's cultivation road.

Apprehension filled his mind as a scene of his time as a cultivator flashed through his memory. "The time might have been short… But having control on your own path is quite fun!" a slight smile crooked on his face as he saw the lightning bolt enter through the door of his Dantian. A crazed expression appeared on his face, a vein popped on his eyes making them glow red in the middle of the golden-lighted room. "Don't disappoint me, golden parasites!" he gritted his teeth as his bet could no longer be undone.

As soon as the potent lightning bolt stepped inside of his Dantian, a joyful chirp resounded from it and the golden eggshell's crack extended all over its surface in an instant. It only seemed that the thing inside it needed to slightly press on the eggshell to break it, and that was what happened. A small golden colored tail, with crisscrossing intricate lines on it, slapped the eggshell apart.
