Chapter 52 - 52

Chapter 52: Chapter 52

At noon, the sun was shining brightly. It was already autumn, but it was still unbearably hot in the Kunlun Mountains. After a night of rushing, Zhou Peng was already sweating profusely and his clothes were soaked. Feeling the breath on Black Rock beside him, he couldn't help but feel envious. The Kunlun Mountains were more than 60 kilometers away from Qinghe City. From the periphery to the hinterland of the mountains, they had traveled nearly 500 kilometers. Black Rock's face wasn't red and he wasn't out of breath. There was no fluctuation in his breath. Since Zhou Peng had mastered the Breath Law, he could sense the breath of all living things within one kilometer around him. The law surpassed the rules and was above the cultivation methods. Those who could comprehend the law were all strong men with outstanding understanding. Although the Breath Law seemed a bit useless, it wasn't the case. During the battle, Zhou Peng could clearly feel the breath flow and operation in the opponent's body. Moreover, he could discover the opponent within one kilometer. Although one kilometer was short, for a master, it was enough to make full preparations. Besides, the Breath Law was only in the initial stage. "The front is the hinterland of the Kunlun Mountains." Black Rock looked at the dark front with a lingering fear, and there was a faint shock in his heart. The cold wind was whistling, and the monsters kept roaring like ghosts crying and wolves howling, which was terrifying and made people dare not take a step forward. The monsters on the periphery of the Kunlun Mountains were all low - level, and they didn't pose a big challenge to Zhou Peng. The experience value of low - level monsters was very low. Now, the experience value of more than 100 points was not enough for Zhou Peng. Moreover, there were too many adventure teams on the periphery. As soon as they encountered one, a group of people would surround it immediately. Just like the small monsters in the novice village, a large number of players would compete for one monster. Zhou Peng didn't want to do such a miserable thing anymore. Zhou Peng took a deep breath. A red light flashed in his eyes. He released the Breath Law and felt the living things within one kilometer around him to see if there were high - level monsters hidden around. After a few breaths, Zhou Peng was about to step into the dark forest. Suddenly, Black Rock thought of something and said, "You should swallow the crystal nucleus now and break through to the Gathering Spirit Realm as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to protect yourself inside." "Swallow the crystal nucleus?" Zhou Peng's brows were filled with joy. He almost forgot about the crystal nucleus. Zhou Zhantian had tested him several times. His purpose was to know whether Zhou Peng had swallowed the crystal nucleus and how much energy the crystal nucleus hid. It could make Zhou Zhantian at the Tempered Gang Realm be a little afraid. Taking out the crystal nucleus of the violent (King Kong ape) from the space ring, it was crystal clear like a marble. The milky white halo appeared and disappeared from time to time, emitting a strong energy breath. "Hurry up and take it, otherwise high - level monsters will be attracted." Black Rock said a little anxiously. The monsters in the Kunlun Mountains were the same as humans. The weak were prey to the strong, and the fittest survived. The monsters were also incompatible with each other. Especially, the high - level monsters had a deep hatred for each other. Once they met, they would fight to the death. Besides competing for territory, they also competed for the crystal nucleus under each other's skulls. The cultivation of monsters was similar to that of humans. They could condense crystal nuclei after hundreds of years of cultivation. The crystal nuclei stored huge energy. Swallowing this energy could bring great benefits. The competition among monsters also led to the fact that the fifth - level monsters in the Kunlun Mountains were very powerful, and even people at the Tempered Gang Realm were not their opponents. As soon as Black Rock said that, Zhou Peng was stunned and immediately put the crystal nucleus into his mouth. When the crystal nucleus entered Zhou Peng's body, a strong light shot out from the depth of his throat and finally disappeared slowly, like a stone sinking into the sea. Black Rock sat aside, with a smile on his face. Looking at Zhou Peng's calm expression, he said, "Soon you will feel the power of the crystal nucleus." Zhou Peng didn't feel anything at all. But just after Black Rock finished speaking, a violent change began to occur in his Dantian. The system kept prompting, "Increase (qigong) value by 100 points, increase (qigong) value by 100 points..." The system voice kept showing in his mind, and a series of red characters were refreshed crazily. Zhou Peng clearly saw that the (qigong) value was constantly increasing. He was extremely happy to see this. This was not a crystal nucleus at all. It was the source of magic power. The crystal nucleus released rings of light in the Dantian. Each time it flashed, the?? (qigong) value increased by 100 points. The speed was stable and there was no sign of stopping at all. It was simply crazy. Yesterday, more than 10,000 points of (qigong) were consumed, and two - thirds of the (qigong) value bar was empty. Now, more than half of it had been replenished in just over ten minutes, and it was still increasing. Zhou Peng was extremely happy. Ordinary cultivators would improve their bodies in all aspects by swallowing the crystal nucleus. Some people with outstanding talents could even continuously break through within one day by swallowing the crystal nucleus. Those with mediocre talents would also be transformed. A crystal nucleus usually took three years to refine all the energy inside. During the three years, one didn't need to do anything. Just by refining it, one could improve a lot. After Zhou Peng swallowed the crystal nucleus, his body didn't change, but the (qigong) in his Dantian was constantly operating and releasing, making the (qigong) value keep increasing. For Zhou Peng, the rapid increase of the (qigong) value was much better than the transformation of the body. Half an hour later, the (qigong) value bar was full. At this time, the crystal nucleus in the Dantian became silent again. Immediately, Zhou Peng quietly activated the (qigong) and consumed a few points of (qigong). Suddenly, the crystal nucleus in the Dantian became active again, flashed with light, and the (qigong) value was instantly full. "The source of magic power, it's definitely the source of magic power..." Zhou Peng was ecstatic in his heart and wanted to roar loudly. With this thing, he didn't need to worry about the lack of (qigong) value at all. He could release big moves one after another. If he couldn't kill you, he would kill you with big moves. "So cool." He was very happy in his heart, happier than a child during the Spring Festival. Then Zhou Peng's mind penetrated into the Dantian to see if he could control the crystal nucleus in the Dantian. He found that his mind could be linked with the crystal nucleus. Zhou Peng was ecstatic again and immediately established the standard for releasing the (qigong) value. After adjusting, Zhou Peng showed a happy expression and thought in his heart, "It's like a cheating device for taking medicine, ha ha..." Black Rock was waiting quietly beside him. Looking at Zhou Peng's excited face, he smiled knowingly and was also happy for Zhou Peng. Thinking of his dead brothers, he silently said in his heart, "Brothers, we have another brother." He really regarded Zhou Peng as his brother. Zhou Peng also really regarded Black Rock as his big brother. After everything was done, Zhou Peng looked at Black Rock with gratitude in his heart. Black Rock at the Tempered Gang Realm could easily take away Zhou Peng's crystal nucleus if he wanted. When they hunted the violent (King Kong ape) that day, the crystal nucleus should have been his, but he gave it to Zhou Peng. This was a great favor, and Zhou Peng remembered it in his heart. When dealing with enemies, one should know how to endure. When one's strength is strong, one should step on them hard and not give them any chance to turn over. When dealing with brothers, one should be sincere and loyal. "How is it? Is the power of the crystal nucleus very cool?" Black Rock asked casually, smiling happily. "It's not just cool. It's extremely cool." Zhou Peng also said happily. Then, the two of them laughed and stepped into the dangerous place, the hinterland of the Kunlun Mountains!
