"Old Ling, I'm ready. Let's begin!”Ling Aoran took off her clothes, shoes, and socks and stood there naked. Although he said that he was prepared, he was still a little nervous in his heart. After all, it was his first time. He did not know how painful the process of rebuilding his meridians was, so he could only pretend to be calm.
Seeing that Ling Aoran had taken off his clothes, Old Ling didn't waste any time. He circulated his spiritual energy and poured it into the big water tank. Not long after, the medicinal herbs slowly decomposed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Not long after, a whole tank of green liquid appeared in front of Ling Aoran. There were bubbles on the surface of the liquid, and an unpleasant smell assaulted his face. Ling Aoran pinched her nose and dived in without thinking.
Thump…
The juice splattered everywhere, causing Old Ling's heart to ache as he watched. He thought to himself, This little master really doesn't know how to cherish this. These are all treasures!!!
In the beginning, Ling Aoran's body did not have any abnormalities. Other than the unbearable stench of the liquid in the water tank, Ling Aoran only felt very comfortable and soft in the tank. This comfortable feeling almost made Ling Aoran fall asleep.
However, the comfortable feeling did not last long. Ling Aoran felt a faint numbness in his body. As time passed, this numbness gradually turned into an itch! This itchy feeling was like thousands of ants biting his flesh and blood, making Ling Aoran extremely uncomfortable. He wanted to reach out and scratch, but he didn't know where to start because his entire body felt like this.
Gradually, the itch turned into a sharp pain. Ling Aoran could still withstand this pain. It was much better than the previous itch. He closed his eyes and slowly endured it.
When the liquid in the water tank seeped into Ling Aoran's skin bit by bit, Ling Aoran's face gradually turned pink. Beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on Ling Aoran's forehead. An hour later, when the pain became even more intense, Ling Aoran clenched his teeth tightly. His face was pale, and the steam on his head kept rising. The liquid in the jar had also become much lighter. One could vaguely see Ling Aoran's entire body inside through the liquid on the surface of the jar.
Old Ling, who was observing the situation from the side, was extremely shocked. He thought to himself that the speed at which Little Master absorbed the medicinal power was too fast. It was actually more than three to four times faster than others! Other people would need at least 12 hours to absorb the medicinal power to this extent, but little master only used less than four hours. This was too heaven-defying.
Moreover, little master didn't even make a sound. This tenacious personality was comparable to some experts. One had to know that little master was only six years old! He had thought that no matter how much he could endure, he would cry out in pain. However, he did not expect that he could actually endure such a heart-wrenching pain and not cry out. This was probably something that even those people with tenacious minds could not do.
At this moment, Ling Aoran didn't know that Elder Ling was secretly shocked by his endurance. He felt that he was about to collapse from the pain. The reconstruction of meridians was really not done by humans. The waves of pain made him almost go crazy. If it wasn't for his rationality telling him to persevere, Ling Aoran would have jumped out of the water tank long ago.
Seeing Ling Aoran clench his teeth, Old Ling was afraid that he would accidentally bite his tongue. That would be troublesome. He picked up a branch as thick as two fingers and handed it to Ling Aoran. He hurriedly said,"Bite it. This will reduce some of the pain.”
Hearing Elder Ling's words, Ling Aoran opened his eyes and saw a tree branch in front of him. At this moment, Ling Aoran, who was in pain, did not hesitate to bite down!
Crack!
When the tree branch came into contact with the teeth, it was instantly bitten into two! Seeing this, Old Ling was shocked. It was broken so easily…How much force must he have used! Without any hesitation, he took out some soft cloth from his storage ring. After soaking it in the lake, he quickly handed it to Ling Aoran's mouth for him to bite.
As time slowly passed, the pain that felt like tens of thousands of steel needles piercing into his skin made Ling Aoran's mind on the verge of collapse. Every time he reached the limit of his tolerance and wanted to jump out of the water tank, a familiar voice would faintly sound in his head.'Persevere on'…It was his mother's voice! Every time he heard this voice, Ling Aoran would suppress his desire to leave the water tank.
After three hours, all the juice in the water tank had turned into clear water. Ling Aoran let out a long sigh of relief and lay in the water tank with a dispirited expression.
Elder Ling was surprised that Ling Aoran had finished absorbing the medicinal power so quickly. However, seeing his half-dead appearance, he smiled and said,""How is it? Can you hold on? Two more times! Twice!" Elder Ling stretched out two fingers and gestured in front of Ling Aoran with a smile, causing Ling Aoran to roll her eyes.
Ling Aoran thought that this old man was too wicked. He was already in such a state, yet he was still taking pleasure in her misfortune and teasing her. What kind of person was this!
"It's alright. I can still hold on. Change the dressing.”Ling Aoran said weakly. Then, he climbed out of the water tank and asked Elder Ling to change the water inside.
Seeing Ling Aoran's decisiveness, Elder Ling nodded in satisfaction. There was still a vat of medicine waiting for him. If he could not even withstand the first vat of medicine, there was no need to continue with the next two vats, even though Ling Aoran's meridians had been slightly repaired and he could cultivate. However, it was far from enough to meet the requirements. He had to soak the next two tanks of potion.
Without wasting any time, Old Ling drained the water in the water vat and filled the vat with herbs from his storage ring. He injected his spiritual energy into the vat and soon, the vats were filled with the unpleasant liquid again.
Ling Aoran shuddered when he saw the terrifying liquid! He had to endure that terrifying feeling again. After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and jumped in.
"Old Ling, Bu!" After entering the water vat, Ling Aoran remembered that he had forgotten to bite the cloth, so he told Elder Ling beside him.
Seeing Ling Aoran's nervous expression, Elder Ling couldn't help but joke,""Aiya, that piece of cloth was bitten by you and I threw it away. I don't have any more cloth now! What should we do?" Old Ling pretended to be nervous as he said in annoyance.
"Ah! No way! Then what should he do? Then you can use my clothes. After all, it's a piece of cloth. Hurry up, or you'll feel it!”Ling Aoran didn't know that Elder Ling was joking and hurriedly said. After all, it was better to have something to bite than nothing.
Looking at Ling Aoran's adorable appearance, Elder Ling chuckled and took out a soft cloth from his storage ring. He soaked it and handed it to Ling Aoran. Seeing this, Ling Aoran couldn't help but roll his eyes at Elder Ling. He thought to himself,'You're still joking at this time. You're really not serious.'
Biting the cloth tightly, the numbing feeling soon invaded again. Ling Aoran's breathing quickened a little. He closed his eyes and slowly waited for the pain to come.
An hour passed…
Two hours passed…
It was not until the sixth hour passed that Ling Aoran heaved a sigh of relief. The cloth in his mouth fell into the water tank. At this moment, Ling Aoran's face was as pale as snow, and his face was covered in large beads of sweat. His expression was even more dispirited than the first time. He used all his strength to slowly climb out of the water tank and lay on the ground, panting heavily.
It was already close to the afternoon. Although the scorching sun was shining down, it didn't feel hot at all in Paradise Basin. Only the cool breeze blew over from time to time, making people feel refreshed and relaxed.
Elder Ling saw that Ling Aoran was still able to endure the second vat of potion without saying a word. He nodded his head and did not waste any time. He drained the water in the vat and did the same thing.
After the juice was ready, Old Ling said to Ling Aoran, who was lying on the ground with a dispirited expression,"There's still one more jar. Hold on. As long as you can endure this jar, the meridians in your body will be completely reconstructed and will be even stronger than before! Endure it. This was the first step to becoming a top expert on the continent! If you could cross it, you would be able to trample the world under your feet. If you couldn't cross it, you could only be an ordinary spirit cultivator! Think about the oath you made to your parents, think about the enemy who killed your parents! If you want to fulfill your oath and kill your enemy, you must persevere through this last vat of potion and cross this first threshold!!”Elder Ling spoke very seriously. He didn't want Ling Aoran to have any thoughts of giving up at this time, so he provoked him.
Hearing Elder Ling's words, Ling Aoran's eyes turned red. Clenching his fists, he didn't care about his physical and mental fatigue. Without thinking, he dived into the water tank, not even bothering to bite the cloth on his mouth.
After a long wait, it had been nearly three hours. At this moment, Ling Aoran bit his lips hard. He was afraid that he would faint and never wake up again. Enduring the hellish pain, his entire body seemed to be distorted, making Ling Aoran wish he was dead!!!
Finally, Ling Aoran let go of his lips. His body no longer seemed to belong to him. Under the ethereal spirit, Elder Ling let out a long sigh of relief. He walked to Ling Aoran's side and picked up his petite body. At this moment, Ling Aoran had already entered a state of sleep due to mental exhaustion. Looking at Ling Aoran's even breathing, Elder Ling smiled in relief. After more than nine hours, his meridians had finally been successfully reconstructed…
