Chapter 8 CHAPTER 7 : Joey's Origin
After being unconscious for around twenty - six hours, Joey woke up the next day's evening. He stood up and stretched his body, producing cracking sounds of his bones and joints. His body felt good his body and also refreshed at the same time.
" I feel like my body is filled with qi essence. This feeling is so good. " He said to himself and started exercising.
After stretching for a while, he started jogging, jumping, and squatting. But after an hour of doing that, he just didn't feel tired at all. Not a single drop of sweat came out of his pores. Then he looked around the room, searching for something.
He didn't see anything that could be used, and finally, his gaze had fallen to the king-size bed, which was purely made up of iron ( maybe around 250 kg weight ).
" This would do for now. "
Then Joey removed the mattress, lifted the iron - bed while using it as a weight, and started jogging first.
" Yes, it is working," He murmured while jogging.
Then he changed to jumping. After some moments, he started squatting while counting the number.
" 1 2 3 4 5 ... "
After several hours of exercise, a " bang" sound could be heard inside his body. Then he had been transported back to the heavenly corruption pagoda.
Clap clap clap ...
Long Ai came out while clapping her dainty hands.
" Little brother, you are about to break through. Great, it is better than I expected," She said.
" Breaking through from vessel strengthening to blood purification realm within three days is an amazing feat. " She continued speaking and started clapping again.
Joey was staring at her while stopping the urge to break through. He said with anxiety, " Elder sister Ai, I am about to break through. What should I do? "
" Wait," She said. Then she removed her hairpin and walked toward him.
She took his hand poked his palm with the hairpin. This action was so quick for Joey's eyes to react.
There was a drop of red blood on the tip of the hairpin. She flung the pin removing the blood. Then she waved her palm while lifting the drop of blood in the air.
She recited an incantation in a strange language with a unique tone coming from her throat and finally blew the air from her mouth toward the blood. The drop of blood started distorting while an image of a dragon roaring toward the sky appeared. Then another embodiment of the back of a human figure appeared after the dragon image. Afterward, the images ruptured turned into mist.
" Woohoo! Hahaha... " She shouted excitedly. Then, she laughed out loud like she went nuts.
" Elder sister, calm down. " Joey became uneasy seeing her freaking out.
Hearing him, she calmed down, but a tinge of red appeared both in her cheeks.
" What have I done? I got carried away with excitement in front of this boy. So embarrassing. " She thought in his mind.
" Ahem ahem," She coughed ( trying to release the embarrassment ).
She continued, " Boy, sit here. I will start guiding your breakthrough. Your breakthrough will not be simple like other cultivators. "
Joey obediently sat before her while Ai took her hand and felt his pulse searching for something for a few minutes, then she released his hand.
" Focus your mind on the vessels near your heart," She said calmly.
Joey started focusing his mind on the blood vessels near his heart.
" Now release all the energy on your blood vessels into your heart and create a path and start purifying your heart with essence qi," She added.
He then released all the pent-up energy in his blood vessels to his heart together at once. The inside of his heart ruptured at the same time. Then the backside of the human root appeared in the one-half side of his heart and started recovering that ruptured region. But the other half portion of his heart was still rupturing. Joey screamed with pain, he started to bleed out in all his orifice, and he nearly fainted.
" As I thought exactly," She said and brought out an azure color scale. She cast a fire technique on her hand and started melting the scale in the air. After burning the azure color scale, a drop of azure color liquid remained floating in the air.
Then, she flung the azure color liquid to Joey's forehead. While Joey could feel a liquid from his head moving toward his heart. Then the liquid moved to the rupture region of his heart, forming a set of roots in the shape of a dragon that started healing all those ruptured regions. Finally, a brand new heart with enormous vitality was formed. Afterward, the new heart produced a lot of drops of blood with stronger vitality than before and pumped the blood throughout his body.
" You better be." Then she snorted.
" Sister Ai, do you give me something during my breakthrough? " Joey asked in a gentle voice.
" At least, you know it. Yes, I give you the only reverse scale of my ancestor that I keep to break through my cultivation. So you owe me a big one this time. Never forget this. " She told him with some reluctance and anger.
Joey scratched his head and said with an innocent smile, " Yes, yes. But why do I need a dragon's reverse scale for my cultivation? "
" Hah, this brat. You don't even know your origin. Do you even think you are 100% pure human ? " she said.
Joey suddenly jumped up and exclaimed, " You mean I am some non-human species! "
" Fool, I don't say that. What I meant is that you have the bloodline of both human and dragon," she explained.
" Dra - gon dragon, I am both human and dragon," He said dumbfoundedly while both his hands touched his forehead, searching for something.
" But I don't have any horns? " He said while exhaling his breath heavily.
" Stupid boy, you don't have horns because you are a damn halfling. And what is with your reaction? The horns are very lovely. You see, you will know how beautiful it is when you touch it. " She retorted. ( every maiden of dragon clans always thought of their horns as one of the means to quantify beauty )
" Oh," He opened his mouth and unconsciously stretched his two hands and touched her two horns in her forehead. Suddenly his body felt ecstasy and moaned softly while his hand involuntarily started caressing her horns.
When Joey caressed her horns, an electric current ran through from her head to toe while she moaned with pleasure.
After a few minutes, her mind became clear again and she shouted, " What are you touching? Remove quickly. "
