Dream Picking Records

When Wang Xiao returned to his residence at night, he took out the bone box again. His eyes widened, and he did not tickle it this time. After much persuasion, the bone box still did not respond to him, as if it had fallen into a deep sleep again.

Wang Xiao muttered helplessly.

"We've been together for so long, and we've been through thick and thin together. It would be a lie to say that we don't have any feelings for each other. I just want to chat with you, can't you satisfy me?"

……

"You are the reward I got after passing many tests. I will not treat you as a master. What do you say, brother?"

"Brother?"

"uncle?"

"…Ancestor? How about I take you to see your old lover again?"

"Om..."

The bone box couldn't bear it anymore, and trembled for a while, and then yawned as if it had just woken up, "Ahem, I don't have much time to be awake, so it's best not to disturb me unless it's important."

Wang Xiao couldn’t tell how old he was from his tone, so he rubbed his palms and shamelessly moved closer.

"Brother, please tell me about your past so that I can see it."

The bone box was silent for a long time, and it was unclear whether it was dissatisfied with his address or reminiscing.

"I have forgotten many things... I can't remember where I came from. I only know that I have existed for a long time."

Wang Xiao was a little disappointed. The doors inside the bone box were very mysterious. Each one had benefited him greatly, and he wanted to take the opportunity to learn more about it.

"Ah... Big Brother, do you remember any techniques? I'm not greedy for too many, just a dozen or so will be enough. With your status, even the best and most famous scriptures in the world are no problem for you."

The bone box hanging in the air staggered and rotated, making it look like someone was glancing at it from the side.

"What? Isn't the Heavenly Dao Four Symbols Jue enough for you to practice?"

"What is the Heavenly Dao Four Symbols Art? I have never heard of it."

"Impossible. You can't see me without its approval."

Faced with the questions about the bone box, Wang Xiao acted very innocently, as if these five words had never appeared in his mind.

"Perhaps due to the passage of time, the technique was lost or dissipated? After all, I heard that Yunshan Academy has existed for tens of thousands of years. In addition, it has been in decline for too long, so it is normal that it has been lost."

"Heh, do you know whose technique that is? It has dissipated."

"Who is it?" Wang Xiao became interested and moved his face closer.

"My spirit body is defective and my memory is limited. I can't remember it."

"I rely on!"

Wang Xiao's eagerness was interrupted by his words again.

"But, ahem, as your cultivation improves, I might be able to gradually remember some of it."

Wang Xiao felt that there was still hope when he heard this. "Brother, I sincerely want to help you recover, but I was born with a dull talent. I have wasted 17 years of my life and have only reached the fifth level of Gui Yuan. You are all alone and helpless. Maybe one day you will meet with an accident, and no one will help you return to your former peak."

Wang Xiao appealed to her emotions and reasoned with her, but his acting skills were not up to par and there was only thunder but no rain. He just wiped away the tears that had not been shed.

"So you have to give me some help, right?"

Although the bone box had just woken up from its deep sleep, it had some understanding of its current owner, Wang Xiao, and did not expose him.

"Hey, that's enough, I still remember some ways to save my life, so I'll teach them to you."

After saying this, several scriptures rang in Wang Xiao’s mind.

"One more thing, don't call me brother, you should call me Senior Gu."

Wang Xiao was delighted and busy browsing the scriptures, so he didn't pay attention to what the bone box said and answered casually.

"Good old Gu."

The bone box was so angry that it flashed a few times and flew towards his forehead, but it did not sink into his forehead at the first moment of contact, and hit his forehead hard, causing Wang Xiao to grimace in pain.

"Also, Guqin is not my old lover."

"Ouch!"

Wang Xiao felt pain, but he laughed as he touched the bump on his forehead. After all, he was happy to gain some scriptures from being hit.

But soon he couldn't laugh anymore.

"Oh, no, didn't the ancients like to be tortured? They only practiced self-harming techniques?"

Think about the methods he learned, such as crushing bones and strengthening tendons, which are very brutal just by looking at the literal meaning. Riding the wind with a sword, chasing light and lightning require the combination of lightning strikes to achieve the best effect.

The result was indeed positive. The body that had been honed since childhood was extremely strong after the bones and tendons were broken. The pursuit of light and lightning was also proven in practice - the president of Liuyun Chamber of Commerce, Shi Xiang's clone, could not catch up with him.

After reading the Nine Thunder Method obtained from Shi Shi, he was preparing to find a thunderstorm to practice it. Now he has a book on the art of stepping on thunder. This art is not about stepping on thunder and lightning, but an advanced version of chasing light and lightning, which means exceeding the speed of thunder and lightning, and it is indeed in line with the essence of a way to save life. However, the premise is that you can withstand the baptism of thunder and lightning, otherwise it is not saving life but losing life.

"Is there a lack of thunder in my life?" Wang Xiao recited scriptures silently in his mind, and felt that it was becoming more and more outrageous.

"Uh... stepping on a landmine, it's not really a landmine, is it?"

However, no matter how he called the bone box, he got no response, and he could vaguely hear two snoring sounds.

In the next few days, Wang Xiao wandered in the scripture room, studying and understanding the notes of his predecessors, preparing for the journey of seeking truth.

Finally he waited until a rainy night.

"The universe is bright, the avenue is magnificent. Yin and Yang combine to make me the king. The Nine Heavens Divine Thunder cleanses away the filth. Heed my command. Reveal the light of heaven!"

"boom!"

"Crack!"

In the rain, after Wang Xiao finished reciting the incantation, the roar of thunder followed.

The huge silver snake loomed in the clouds and wandered around. Soon it finished brewing and locked onto its target.

Normally, it would just show up to cheer for the rain and then go off duty. But now, it was summoned by the weak figure in the forest. It seemed that it had been holding back a lot of anger and finally found someone to vent it on.

After the silver snake flickered several times, it grew stronger. The clouds could not bear the energy and completely exposed it to the air, temporarily lighting up the sky.

"Whoosh!"

Before he could hear any sound, the thunder was already approaching him.

"So fast!"

Although he had experienced it once before, the oppressive feeling brought by thunder still remained. Fortunately, Wang Xiao was well prepared and did not panic like the first time he encountered it.

"Activate the mine-stepping technique! ...Ahhh!"

Wang Xiao followed the route of the Thunder-Stepping Technique, and the ferocious silver snake was restrained after contact with it, and no matter how it struggled, it was helpless. Wang Xiao carefully controlled the transmission of spiritual energy, wanting to tame it and then use it for his own benefit.

However, the extremely strong and masculine thunder cannot be manipulated by anyone. Knowing that it cannot escape, the thunder explodes with its violent side, first gathering and shrinking into a ball, and then rapidly expanding the next second.

The balance was suddenly broken, and Wang Xiao quickly adjusted to suppress and appease it.

The main purpose of the Thunder-Stepping Method is to use the power of thunder for one's own benefit rather than to fight against it, so the process looks milder than enduring a thunder tribulation, but the actual degree of danger is even greater.

Wang Xiao failed to control it well, and a trace of energy leaked out, instantly electrocuting him to a crisp.

Ten minutes later, the thunder subsided a little, and then melted into his charred body inch by inch. The electric light lingered in his body, stimulating every inch of his skin, flesh, tendons, and bones, making them tougher.

This is also one of the benefits of the Thunder-Stepping Method, which baptizes the body through thunder and lightning. Otherwise, the body is not strong enough to support the practice of the method.

When the thunder passed through Wang Xiao's golden sea of ​​energy, the calm sea surface suddenly stirred up shocking waves, but this was not restlessness, it was the sound of cheerful waves. The planet belonging to Wang Xiao was full of vitality and even more full of vitality.

Wang Xiao once again drew the thunder into his body, and this cycle continued for several hours. Finally, all the thunder gathered at his feet.

He opened his eyes, kicked his feet hard, and in the blink of an eye he flew thousands of meters away, turning into a meteor across the sky.

"Oh my god, it's really exciting!"

The electric light dissipated, and Wang Xiao stopped, feeling extremely happy. Although his body felt extremely sore, the initial results showed that the effect was quite good.

"Unfortunately, according to the scriptures, I can only go so far at my current level."

Satisfied, he was about to leave when lightning began to gather again in the clouds above his head. This time the power and noise were even stronger, and two long silver snakes were seen circling and intertwining, sometimes separating and sometimes merging together.

"Hmm? What's going on?"

Wang Xiao was not afraid, but even more excited. The unexpected result just filled his unsatisfied heart.

After he had practiced the mine-stepping technique, two silver snakes accumulated energy and arrived as expected.

Wang Xiao was multitasking. The vortices in the acupuncture points all over his body were spinning faster and faster. He was frantically mobilizing the spiritual energy in his body. With the help of his powerful mental strength, he pulled a silver snake in each hand and waved it over the ground.

For a moment, he couldn't tell whether it was the two thunders that made him dance madly, or he was guiding the thunder to dance according to his rhythm.

After a long time, Wang Xiao, whose whole body was gleaming with silver light, stopped moving. His aura was restrained, as if he had merged with the world. Only the raindrops did not touch his body at all.
