Dragon Raja: The Divine Man Lu Mingfei

Lu Mingfei quickly led the three back to the hotel. He carefully helped Nuonuo into the room and settled her in. Nuonuo was fine, but the series of thrilling experiences tonight had exhausted her. She was sleeping soundly with her brows relaxed, as if she had finally let down her guard.

Now comes the important part—Su Xiaoqiang and Chen Wenwen, both of whom fell into a coma after staring directly into Nidhogg's golden eyes, suffered minor damage to their souls. Lu Mingfei's task now is to heal them.

He possessed numerous methods for repairing souls, but most were unsuitable for the current situation. Su Xiaoqiang and Chen Wenwen were ordinary people, their souls as fragile as candles flickering in the wind. Lu Mingfei, on the other hand, had not yet recovered to the point where he could precisely control his mental energy. Performing mental therapy on them was like a surgeon performing a delicate brain operation—he knew the procedure by heart, yet his hands trembled uncontrollably, making every step feel like walking on thin ice.

Since direct treatment was not feasible at the moment, Lu Mingfei had no choice but to settle for indirect treatment. This method was not complicated to operate—he only needed to use his own abilities to enhance the concentration of dragon blood in Su Xiaoqiang and Chen Wenwen's bodies, causing them to awaken as hybrids, and then they could use the power of dragon blood to naturally repair the damage to their souls.

Lu Mingfei settled the two of them on the soft bed and then drew the heavy curtains to completely shut out the noise from the outside world.

What lies before Lu Mingfei now are two mine shafts that have been silent for countless years.

This mine has never been developed; the rock walls are hard, the path is unknown, and there are unknown risks lurking everywhere. What Lu Ming must do is to carefully chisel open the mine with his own strength, open a safe passage, and allow his liquefied spiritual power to flow into it unimpeded, to explore the secrets hidden deep within, and to awaken the dormant dragon blood factor.

He took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and focused his mind.

Lu Mingfei stood before the "Chen" mine, took a deep breath, and first reached out to gently touch the edge of the mine. This was his test, like a geological prospector tapping a rock wall with a small hammer to assess the stability of the rock strata. He could feel the subtle tremors emanating from the mine, the instinctive reaction of an ordinary person's body to a strange force, but fortunately, the tremors were not violent, indicating that the mine was sturdy enough and would not collapse for the time being.

After confirming safety, Lu Mingfei began to gather his true power. He closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and continuously channeled the liquefied spiritual energy within his body into the chisel used for digging. The chisel gleamed faintly and contained power sufficient to penetrate any barrier.

Lu Mingfei slowly opened his eyes and carefully brought the mental energy chisel closer to the mine entrance. He dared not be careless in the slightest, like a seasoned craftsman using the sharpest chisel to carve patterns on glass as thin as a cicada's wing.

Each strike was as light as a feather falling. He could clearly feel the resistance when the chisel touched the edge of the mine, the instinctive rejection of dragon blood power by human genes. Lu Mingfei patiently adjusted the force and angle, sometimes tapping lightly to test, sometimes applying slight force, chipping away at the obstacles little by little, all to open up the passage to the depths.

Time ticked by, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Lu Mingfei's forehead, yet his gaze grew increasingly focused. Finally, with a soft sound, he felt the chisel pierce the outermost barrier, entering the outer area of ​​the mine. Lu Mingfei was overjoyed, a long-lost smile appearing on his face. He didn't stop; instead, he wielded the mental chisel with even greater effort, relentlessly pushing deeper. Each strike was more precise than the last, each inch of progress bringing him one step closer to his goal.

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Mingfei finally felt the chisel touch the bottom of the mine. He stopped and slowly channeled his liquefied spiritual energy into it. The spiritual energy, like a trickle, flowed into the depths of the mine through the chiseled opening, awakening the dormant dragon blood factors within. Lu Mingfei could clearly feel the changes inside the mine, a stirring from slumber to awakening. He nodded in satisfaction, knowing he had succeeded. The mine had finally been successfully developed, and the secrets hidden within would gradually surface.

After a short rest, Lu Mingfei turned his gaze to another mine called "Su". He took a deep breath and repeated the initial procedure - first, he reached out and gently touched the edge of the mine.

This time, he clearly sensed something different. When he touched the mine wall, the resistance was far stronger than in the previous mine, and the tremors were more subtle yet resilient. Lu Mingfei's heart stirred; he increased the output of his mental energy, carefully probing the stability of the wall. After a moment, he confirmed that although the mine wall was solid, its structure was equally stable and wouldn't easily collapse, only then did he feel relieved.

After confirming it was safe, Lu Mingfei once again focused his liquefied spiritual energy onto the chisel he was using for digging. This time, the spiritual energy he concentrated was even more abundant than before, and the chisel shone even brighter. He carefully brought the chisel close to the mine wall and began to slowly strike it.

To his surprise, the rock walls of this mine were even more solid and rugged than the previous one. Each strike required significantly more effort to leave a mark on the rock. Lu Mingfei could clearly feel the resistance within the rock wall, like layers of mountains constantly hindering the chisel's progress. He dared not slacken in the slightest, focusing even more intently on adjusting his strength and angle, chipping away at the obstacle little by little.

As time passed, when Lu Mingfei finally reached half the depth of this mine, the effort and time he had used were more than twice that of the previous mine.

However, Lu Mingfei felt no fatigue; instead, a delighted smile appeared on his face. He knew that this mine was an absolute gem, one in a million, and the more solid and rugged the rock walls, the richer the hidden treasures within. It seemed he had to dedicate himself wholeheartedly to developing this mine. Lu Mingfei took a deep breath, gathered his mental strength once more, and swung his chisel with even greater effort, pushing deeper into the mine.

Finally, through Lu Mingfei's persistent chiseling, he reached the bottom of the mine.

He took a deep breath and slowly injected his liquefied spiritual energy into it. The next second, the feedback made his eyes widen—the dragon blood factor contained in this mine was more than twice as much as the previous mine! Lu Mingfei was secretly shocked. Judging from the concentration, it might only be a little short of reaching the standard for autonomous awakening. Now, with his help, once this mine fully awakens, its bloodline strength will definitely far surpass the former.

Lu Mingfei stood up, stretched lazily, and his bones made a slight "click" sound. Developing two "mines" simultaneously had left him feeling somewhat exhausted. Now that he had finished what needed to be done, he needed to rest.
