Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 3020: Chapter 19: The Extreme Method

"I was born unlucky..."

The Bone Flute said this with a touch of melancholy.

Lin Dong replied, "I was also born unlucky, so together, perhaps we can turn misfortune into fortune, and live a long life."

"Heh heh..." Hearing Lin Dong’s words, the Bone Flute’s artifact soul will let out a cold chuckle, then said, "What’s so unlucky about you?"

"You’re so fortunate, so gifted. From what I see, even though your bone age is just over twenty, you’ve already reached the Heavenly Realm Third Layer Heaven. You must be a proud son from some big family, showered with love since childhood."

"Growing up amidst flowers and applause. As you grew stronger, you earned respect from everyone. How could you claim to have been born unlucky?"

"I am the truly unlucky one, abandoned by my biological parents at birth. The people who picked me up, I regarded one of them as my second father, whom I respected greatly... but who would’ve thought, he only valued my constitution, and live sacrificed me for my blood... after dying, my soul was extracted and trapped in this dark, sunless Bone Flute, becoming a will that cannot die..."

"I have wanted to die for a long time. If my consciousness were erased and I disappeared completely from this world, it would be a relief for me..."

For some reason, the Bone Flute’s artifact soul suddenly became emotional while saying this.

Perhaps it was because of the long solitude.

Lin Dong had seen many people like this.

Lonely at usual times, possibly going months or even years without speaking to anyone. Then when someone suddenly talks to him, he seemingly can’t stop talking.

And it would be heartfelt words...

Loneliness often makes it difficult to hide the most genuine emotions in one’s heart.

Now, how is the Bone Flute’s will any different from a human?

Lin Dong remained silent for a long while before saying, "Compared to you, I am indeed fortunate."

"However, I’m not as fortunate as you think, being adored all my life. Since childhood, I never saw my father, and as for my mother, ever since I gained consciousness, she was always sick... Watching your loved ones suffer from sickness every day, that doesn’t feel good either..."

As Lin Dong spoke, his voice grew softer, recalling some memories.

He didn’t know where he had seen it, but he remembered a saying: The sorrow and longing for a relative’s death do not occur at the moment of death, but in every sleepless night of remembrance afterwards.

Lin Dong suddenly felt that this saying was very true...

Silence turned into soundlessness, at the moment like a still lake without ripples, never stirring any mist, never echoing any sound.

The Bone Flute’s artifact soul said nothing.

Lin Dong also remained silent.

They seemed lost in their memories.

Both recalled some unforgettable memories.

A long while passed...

Lin Dong snapped out of his memories.

Then continued to move forward.

The Bone Flute’s artifact soul softly said, "Be careful, the heart of Youlan Flame Mountain is very dangerous. Not only because it’s scorching, but there are also indescribable terrors."

"The most cautious you have to be of are the Fire Dragons that suddenly erupt from underground. The temperature of those Fire Dragons exceeds ten thousand degrees. Even a Sky Boundary Saint Body can be devoured in an instant..."

Hearing the reminder, Chen Qing gently said two words.

"Thank you."

Silence.

Again, silence.

Lin Dong soon arrived at the foot of the Youlan Flame Mountain.

At this moment, the temperature he felt had already surpassed five hundred degrees.

And this was just at the foot of Youlan Flame Mountain, not yet officially entered.

At five hundred degrees, a common person standing here would be reduced to ashes by such high temperatures, simply unable to survive.

However, someone like Lin Dong, a Heavenly Realm powerhouse, obviously was not afraid.

He didn’t even activate his defense.

At this moment, the flame’s light shone on his face, showing both blue and red colors...

The interchanging red and blue on his face made him look quite strange.

Lin Dong stepped forward, heading inside.

Having walked a few hundred meters, the temperature began to rise rapidly, soon reaching a thousand degrees.

Such temperature was already capable of melting iron.

At this moment, Lin Dong first invoked his ’Dragon Blood Holy Body.’

The Dragon Blood Holy Body’s flesh body could withstand exceedingly terrifying temperatures.

"Just right to use the flames here to temper the body again," thought Lin Dong.

He always used the ’Extreme Method Tempering’ for refining his body.

What is ’Extreme Method Tempering’?

It is using extreme flames to temper the body, using extreme thunder to temper the body, using extreme water element to temper the body...

In summary, it’s using the power of extreme elements to temper the body.

This method, in principle, is similar to extreme exercise. Some common people, to enhance training, and break human limits, usually train with all their might, run, lift weights...

Lin Dong also utilizes this method.

Of course, this method of body tempering is very painful.

Much more than using a Medicine Bath.

But this method is also more effective.

Like a bodybuilder gaining muscle by eating protein powder, by constantly eating, you can grow meat...

But the strength of the meat grown this way is incomparable to the muscle gained from military-grade exercise.

The flesh body tempered by Lin Dong’s extreme elemental force was the same.

The body tempered this way could be said to be monstrously strong.

Lin Dong continued forward.

He now didn’t know exactly how much temperature his ’Dragon Blood Holy Body’ could withstand.

He needed to try slowly and let it reach a critical point.

As he pushed further, when the temperature reached five thousand degrees, the Dragon Blood Holy Body’s fresh blood started throbbing, started rolling...

"Keep going!" Lin Dong knew it hadn’t reached its limit yet, so he continued to advance.

He moved a little further, where the temperature reached a terrifying six thousand eight hundred degrees.

Even a Heavenly Realm martial artist couldn’t withstand this kind of temperature.

The Sky Boundary Saint Body would also burn open against such high temperatures.

But the limit of Lin Dong’s Dragon Blood Holy Body had just been reached.

At this time, he could feel the fresh blood boiling within him.

And such a time was the best moment for tempering.

He quickly operated the ’Nine Shift Longevity secret,’ using the blazing flames here to temper the body.

Besides tempering the muscles, he also used the flame power to refine bones, fresh blood... Of course, the most crucial part was the fresh blood.

Each boiling of fresh blood was a temper, was a process of becoming stronger.

"Boom～～～" And with continuous tempering, the limit of the Dragon Blood Holy Body was increased.

At this moment, six thousand eight hundred degrees was no longer its limit.

Its limit grew stronger.

Lin Dong moved forward again.

When he reached seven thousand two hundred degrees, he stopped.

Here, he once again reached the limit.

Having just broken through one limit, it was obviously impossible to break through another, but it didn’t matter, his Dragon Blood Holy Body, this was just its weakest form.

He still had Reverse Scale Transformation and Limitless Transformation!

At this moment, he activated the Dragon Blood Holy Body’s Reverse Scale Transformation.

He wanted to break through another limit in the Reverse Scale state and continue tempering his body once more...
