Chapter 49 Dual Cultivation of Thunder and Fire, Laser Gun?

Chu Han found a new direction for his cultivation.

That was to absorb Yuan Qi with the Flame Swallowing Art and then transform it using the Nine Heavens Body Forging Art, which would accelerate the speed of his Body Tempering.

At the same time, this also continuously increased his body's affinity for the Fire Attribute, making future cultivation of Fire Attribute Cultivation Techniques even more compatible with his Physique.

This not only solved his current problem of the Dantian being unable to store Yuan Qi but also sped up his cultivation.

It was practically a cultivation method tailor-made for him.

"I also have a 'Thunder Origin Art.' If I Cultivate it using the method of the Flame Swallowing Art, it might produce the same effect."

Chu Han thought of the Cultivation Technique he had obtained from Night Owl, and his heart stirred.

But after some thought, he decided to Cultivate the Flame Swallowing Art first. The effect of the Thunder Origin Art wasn't necessarily better than the Flame Swallowing Art, so there was no rush.

For the next twenty days or so, Chu Han spent his time cultivating in the martial arts hall and did not head out into the wilderness.

The items he obtained from the lucky draws during these days were mostly Medicinal Pills, weapons, Martial Skills, and coins, with nothing particularly noteworthy to Chu Han.

After such a long period of cultivation, his strength had improved significantly, with his single-arm strength already exceeding 80,000 jin.

However, his body had not yet reached the limit of a Quasi-Martial Artist, and his Dantian still could not store Yuan Qi.

He also never stopped cultivating the Flame Swallowing Art.

Starting from the eleventh day, he also began cultivating the Thunder Origin Art.

Introducing Thunder Attribute Yuan Qi for Body Tempering was even more violent than the Fire Attribute, and he benefited greatly from it.

Chu Han did not neglect the cultivation of his other Martial Skills either.

He had already practiced the Seven Forms of Army Breaking to the sixth form. When activating the Lava Crystal Armor, he could borrow Fire Attribute Yuan Qi to unleash powerful Fire Attribute slashes.

He had also cultivated the Raging Wind Blade Technique, Spirit Cat Steps, Explosive Fist, and Flame Burst Fist to the Realm of Peak Mastery.

While he practiced Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills during the day, he did not forget his Mental Energy cultivation at night.

Currently, his perception range had reached a radius of 50 meters, and his Mental Energy had increased greatly.

But Chu Han was still somewhat dissatisfied with this cultivation speed.

So today, he planned to perform Thunder and Fire Dual Cultivation.

"If I run two Cultivation Techniques simultaneously and use both Thunder and Fire attribute Yuan Qi for Body Tempering, will it be faster?"

This idea had occurred to him many days ago, and Chu Han decided to give it a try today.

Even if he got injured, there was still time to recover.

He no longer hesitated, sat cross-legged, and simultaneously operated the Flame Swallowing Art and the Thunder Origin Art.

Instantly, Yuan Qi of both attributes flowed into his body at the same time, beginning to converge and mix.

"Boom!"

Both Fire and Thunder Attributes belonged to the most violent Yuan Qi attributes.

Upon contact, they immediately triggered a violent collision, fighting and canceling each other out before finally fusing into a new surge of Yuan Qi.

The violent Yuan Qi energy began to run wild inside Chu Han's body, causing significant damage to his flesh and Meridians.

Red and purple light even seeped through his body, leaving hideous scars on the surface of his skin.

And what followed was an excruciating, heart-piercing pain.

"This little bit of pain is nothing!"

Chu Han immediately proceeded with the cultivation of the second stage of the Nine Heavens Body Forging Art, integrating this fused Yuan Qi into his body to strengthen himself.

"It really works!"

Chu Han felt a surge of joy.

Although the pain was several times stronger than before, the speed at which his physical body grew stronger had more than doubled!

As his physical body grew stronger, his body damaged by the two types of Yuan Qi also began to repair itself.

But Chu Han soon discovered that as the Fusion speed of the Thunder and Fire Yuan Qi accelerated, his physical repair speed could no longer keep up with the rate of damage.

At this moment, his entire body was covered in scars, and even his internal injuries were worsening.

If this continued, not only would the cultivation results from just now go to waste, but he would also suffer significant damage.

This was something he absolutely could not accept.

"In that case, I'll just speed up the absorption!"

A flash of determination crossed Chu Han's eyes. "It's time to Cultivate the third stage of the Nine Heavens Body Forging Art!"

Thus, Chu Han began to Cultivate according to the postures of the third stage of the Nine Heavens Body Forging Art.

After striking the first posture, several times the pain immediately struck. Although Chu Han was mentally prepared, the pain was still unbearable.

He could only grit his teeth and persevere.

Every stage of the Nine Heavens Body Forging Art started this way.

Soon, his perseverance bore fruit.

Under the postures of the third stage, his speed of absorbing Yuan Qi increased by more than twofold.

The mixed Yuan Qi in his body that couldn't be absorbed in time was now being rapidly absorbed and integrated into all the cells of his body.

Chu Han suddenly felt his cultivation speed surge, and his bodily damage began to recover.

These changes were all the effects of the third stage of the Nine Heavens Body Forging Art.

"The third stage of the body forging art is indeed domineering; I like it!"

Chu Han wore a satisfied smile.

Every time his cultivation required him to risk his life, the Nine Heavens Body Forging Art would solve his troubles.

"As expected of an S-rank body forging Martial Skill."

Chu Han lamented.

The subsequent cultivation became much simpler.

Chu Han could clearly feel that his physical strength had achieved another leap-forward improvement.

After the day's cultivation ended, Chu Han tested his strength again.

He found that his single-arm strength had already broken through the 90,000 jin mark, and 100,000 jin was no longer far off.

Chu Han returned home, had dinner with his parents, and proceeded with his Mental Energy cultivation as usual.

There were still 7 days left until the Martial Arts Grand Examination, and all the high school seniors were working hard at their cultivation for it.

The next day, Chu Han began the lucky draw.

[Congratulations, you have obtained one B-rank laser gun.]

[B-rank laser gun: A technological weapon that is the crystallization of human wisdom. When fully charged, it can fire two laser shots capable of killing Rank 5 exotic beasts. By adjusting the output power, the number of shots can be increased.]

The item he obtained today surprised Chu Han somewhat.

He hadn't expected to obtain a high-tech weapon today, and a laser gun capable of firing lasers at that.

With a thought, an entirely silver-white laser gun appeared in his hand.

There was a small screen on the gun's body displaying the energy value and the number of shots.

At this moment, the laser gun's energy was empty, and the number of shots was also 0.

The laser gun also came with a manual.

It stated that various energy-containing items could be used to charge the laser gun.

Chu Han thought for a bit and placed the laser gun in front of an outlet in his bedroom. The laser gun indeed began to absorb electricity, but after a long time, the energy level had only moved by one percent.

"Too slow. There should be a better way to charge it."

Chu Han thought for a moment and took out a lower-grade energy stone from his space.

After nearly 20 days of lucky draws, the lower-grade energy stones he had accumulated exceeded a hundred, so he didn't feel bad about taking one out to use.

He placed the lower-grade energy stone on the laser gun; the gun immediately reacted and began to rapidly absorb the energy from the stone.

Before long, the energy level reached 100%.

That lower-grade energy crystal was also completely absorbed and disappeared.

The number of shots for the laser gun also became 2.

"This power can kill Rank 5 exotic beasts; it's not easy to test."

The laser gun's power was too great; firing it directly would cause massive destruction to his home.

Fortunately, there was a knob on the laser gun to adjust the output power. Chu Han turned it and found that the number of shots had indeed changed to 3.

When turned to the limit, the number of shots became the maximum of 9, though he didn't know what the power would be like.

"I'll go outside and try it out in a bit."

Having obtained such a weapon, his heart felt itchy if he didn't try it.

Just as Chu Han finished breakfast and was about to head downstairs, his communicator suddenly rang.

Looking down, he saw it was actually Li Yunjian calling.

"Chu Han, there's an emergency mission. Hurry to the unit to assemble!"
