Chapter 120 Yin-Yang Lightning Strike Slime
"Ha, such a powerful lightning strike, am I not worthy of it?"
Xu Ning vigorously rubbed his numb right hand, and it took a long time for him to regain feeling.
Extending his hand again, Xu Ning learned his lesson this time and obediently placed it on the first door.
Another electric current crackled, but this time the intensity only made Xu Ning's arm tremble slightly; he gritted his teeth and endured it.
Xu Ning slowly pushed open the stone door and strode inside.
The building that comes into view is like a sacrificial site. On both sides of the steps are thunderstones that flash with electricity, and lightning occasionally flows into the base below.
At the very center of the enormous circular sacrificial altar, eight towering stone pillars are inscribed with enigmatic purple thunder patterns, resembling symbols yet also a kind of language.
As Xu Ning stepped into the sacrificial ground, a circle of Rei Slimes sprang up around him, bouncing and hopping towards Xu Ning in the center.
Xu Ning kicked the nearest Rei Slime away, and felt a tingling sensation where his foot touched it.
Xu Ning jumped back two steps and left the encirclement of the Rei Slime.
"Ugh, I can't play a warrior with you elemental monsters, I have to be a mage!"
Xu Ning's fist condensed with the aura of alcohol, and he rubbed the copper coin on the back of his hand against the bottom of the gourd, causing a fire dragon to burst forth.
The dragon-shaped flames completely enveloped the lightning slimes in front of Xu Ning. The collision of lightning and fire caused an overload reaction, and each lightning slime seemed to turn into a small bomb, exploding and scattering into a ball of lightning in the air.
Then the bullets began to fall one by one.
Xu Ning picked up a pellet that had rolled to his feet and discovered it was a lead oxide pellet with cloud-like patterns.
"These must be the defective Golden Cores that True Monarch Liuyun Jiefeng was talking about!"
After the first round of Retmog slimes was eliminated, several large slimes appeared on the field again. What was even more unusual was that, in addition to several large Retmog slimes surrounded by purple lightning, there was also a slime surrounded by bright yellow lightning.
"Hey, how did you manage to change the color of your background? Is it some kind of mutation effect? Or is it because the other person cultivates Yin Five Thunder, while you received a different inheritance and cultivated Yang Five Thunder?"
Since there was no one else around, and he was facing a slime that couldn't speak, Xu Ning unleashed his verbal barrage to his heart's content.
However, although this mutated Rei Slime didn't look much different from a regular large Rei Slime, it really startled Xu Ning when it attacked.
As the Rei Slime leaped up to charge its slam, Xu Ning inadvertently stood between the bright yellow mutated Rei Slime and the large purple slime in an attempt to dodge the attack.
Almost without warning, an arc of electricity suddenly appeared between the two slimes.
Even though Xu Ning dodged quickly, he was still no match for the speed of lightning. He was struck on the left shoulder by the electric arc, and half of his body suddenly became paralyzed.
"Wow, is this the power of the attraction between yin and yang?"
Before Xu Ning could fully recover, the other large purple Retsu slimes also crowded around him.
The bright yellow electric light on this mutated Rei Slime began to connect with the other purple electric light, slowly forming an electric field that enveloped Xu Ning.
It's just that Rei Slime isn't fast enough, otherwise he would probably be in a lot of trouble right now.
It was only at this moment that Xu Ning realized how terrifying these little creatures were. In the wild, he would just casually kill any lone one he encountered, but he never expected that they would change like this when they came in groups.
Taking a deep breath, Xu Ning forcefully activated the burning version of "Drinking Alone Under the Moon" again, and a fire dragon went straight to devour the bright yellow mutated slime.
At the sound of the explosion, the mutated slime was blasted into a ball of lightning without any means of resistance.
Without this "positive charge generator," the electric fields formed by the other purple Rei Slimes immediately disappeared, and no electric arcs appeared between them anymore.
Xu Ning shook his still somewhat numb arms and stood up.
"Does being of the same sex mean you can't have feelings? Your views on love are really narrow-minded. Alright, I should send you back to nature now."
Where flames rise, explosions resound, and lightning flashes, all things remain at peace.
"No monsters have appeared, and even the lightning patterns on the stone pillars have dimmed? Does it need time to recharge?"
Xu Ning looked around and finally saw a place in the distant void where lightning flickered, and something seemed to be piled up in the distance.
It seems that most of the Golden Cores and other items are piled up there, but unfortunately I can't fly over there. Perhaps I can only wait until they are fully charged next time so that the Retsu Slimes can bring them over.
Xu Ning picked up the lead oxide pieces from the ground one by one; there were about twenty of them.
"I don't know if it's enough..."
Xu Ning took out the Black Rock Slashing Blade and gently tapped the spine of the blade with his hand. "Let's begin."
Xu Ning brought a lead oxide ball close to the blade of the Black Rock Slashing Blade, and the lead oxide ball suddenly turned into a thin stream of silver that seeped into the blade.
"Hmm? It doesn't seem to have changed much."
Xu Ning then incorporated two more lead oxides, and this time the Black Rock Slashing Blade finally underwent a change.
Suddenly, the red pattern on the spine of the Black Rock Slashing Blade lit up.
"Oh, if it can't be integrated, then it can be improved again."
Xu Ning poured out all the refined forging magic ore he had on him to enhance it again, and then used lead pills after it reached its limit.
The second advancement was terrifying; it took a full nine lead pills to achieve another breakthrough.
"If we try again, we won't have enough lead oxide or magic ore for refining. We'll have to do this for now. Let's find enough magic ore for refining first, and then we can get lead oxide. I'm afraid the demand will only become more and more terrifying later on."
Xu Ning walked out of the Thunderclap City Ruins carrying the Black Rock Slashing Blade, and Ah Zhong and the foreman who had been guarding outside the gate were finally relieved.
"Did it work?" Ah Zhong asked, leaning closer.
Xu Ning smiled and said, "It's half done. I might have to trouble you again in the future. I'm going to Yaoguang Beach to test the sword and clear out those demons while I'm at it. You guys go ahead and do your work. I'll head back after I'm done."
After saying goodbye to the two, Xu Ning went straight through the cave on the right and arrived at Yaoguang Beach.
Just as the foreman said, this cave is actually a corridor, and the patterns on the pillars silently tell the story of the wear and tear of time.
As I walked out of the corridor, a sea breeze blew by, and everything was quiet.
There are no Hilichurls left; they've probably all been evacuated from Luminosity.
Xu Ning took two steps up the hillside to the left, and suddenly a Rei Slime popped out. He cleaved it in two with a single slash, revealing an ordinary treasure chest behind it, from which he opened several pieces of fine forging ore.
"This is an unexpected bonus. I wonder if there are any more?"
Xu Ning looked down at the beach and actually found it.
Beside a dilapidated hut, there were three ordinary treasure chests, while on the beach, a tall ruins guardian was pacing back and forth, swinging his arms.
Xu Ning laughed, "Haven't we found the perfect tool for testing this knife?"
