Chapter 316: Technique: Sunbathing
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The sky was so blue as if it had just been washed.
Waves were surging on the surface of the sea.
Four islands that had different environments were arranged in a T shape. All of them were crowded.
“The south side is short of hands. West side, don’t slack off……”
“Who took away my hammer? I exchanged for it with my Honor. It’s an Extraordinary hammer. Give it back to me.”
“Good sir, my hands are blistering. Could you help me move them?”
At the center of the flat Musical House Island, a city whose wall was multiple kilometers long was under construction.
Hundreds of new players and natives that came in the third batch, regardless of their gender, were busy working under the command of the players of the Construction Division despite the scorching sun.
The ground was melted by the Magma Monster cores and reshaped into forms they wanted. Mixed with the black substance produced by the Magma Monsters that could block heat, the glass made in the magma with the Water Fire Sand, and the furniture made with green wood, a house would be completed.
At this moment, a hundred houses were rising on the Musical House Island, and a city was taking shape.
Clang, clang, clang……
On the Phoenix Guqin Ship that was at the periphery of the Musical House Island, Zhou Yu, who wore the white scholar’s robe and looked as gentle as jade, walked back and forth and commanded a dozen players to play various instruments, raising destructive soundwaves that shattered the reefs underneath the surface of the sea and creating a port where even the Mirage Dragon Warship could stop.
“Sigh, I really regret not learning any musical instruments when I was little. Otherwise, I would’ve been playing music on the ship instead of toiling here to earn EXP.”
“You’re right. Who could’ve thought that you have to work so hard on the Land of Inheritance if you don’t have a special skill!”
“In fact, the standard of the Music House isn’t too high. I regret that I didn’t study hard and get a master’s degree, or I could be on that ship too!”
Some of the players who were busy moving bricks had complicated feelings. ……
“Awoo, Awoo!”
On the Snake Monkey Island that adjoined the Musical House Island, in the Beast Manor that was established on the basis of the Tyrant Lizards’ settlement, Shi Shugang, who was wearing Extraordinary Rank-7 Soft Golden Armor, commanded more than thirty Steelback Blue Wolves that were covered in metal armor to act in formation.
With his Beast Taming talent and the Gold Lion’s Blood that he melted during his arrival, he was able to control the disobedient wolves even without the Alpha Wolf’s Mark.
Some of the new players, who had been carefully selected and at least had a master’s degree, were cleaning the pens nonstop, or distributing the beast food that Ji Ye made with the special Poro-Snax and Sweet Dew, Stone Milk, and Forest Monster Wine!
“Awoooo…… Woof!”
As for the husky, which had grown as large as a bull after melting the Heavenly Wolf’s bloodline, it was enjoying a bath in a corner of the Radiation Lake in the former human settlement where a lot of alarm signs had been established.
Splash!
All of a sudden, a series of bubbles emerged from the center of the lake.
\r \r \r
“Hahaha. I’ve finally made a breakthrough…… I feel that I’m already invincible!”
Mister Bug, who was almost naked, dashed out of the Radiation Hot Spring with the vibe of Extraordinary Rank-8.
His eyes that were bloodshot sent light to the ground as if they were spotlights, creating two blackened trenches that were more than ten meters long and three inches deep!
“Congratulations, Brother Sun, on your Greater Mastery over the Radiation superpower!”
A male player who was wearing lingerie immediately shouted at Mister Bug in admiration.
“Damn, you scared me. Why are you dressed like this? Wait a moment, some female players mentioned that you had a different sexual orientation. Do you?”
Mister Bug thought of something and patted his butt that was only wearing boxers warily.
“Slander! That’s definitely a slander! I’m only wearing this to make myself look more convincing after I turn myself into a woman with my superpower.
“Mister Bug, you must trust me! Those women are only jealous of my prettiness!”
The player who wore lingerie hurriedly defended himself, yet he kept glimpsing at Mister Bug’s abs where water was dripping under the sunlight. ……
At the same time, at the Twin Dragon Island where there were more people, next to the Herb Garden where three Phoenix Blood Seedlings, as well as other unusual herbs, were grown, inside the house that had a “Herb Chamber” board outside, An Daoquan got a spoonful of red and black “mud” from the medicine cauldron and sniffed it.
He then carefully tasted it in his mouth.
“It works!”
Several seconds later, An Daoquan’s eyes glittered. He commanded a few professional medical players to make the mud into pills and put them in vials made with Water Fire Glass that was labeled “Inner Strength Pills”.
Whoosh!
In the Tech District, which used to be the Metal Men’s settlement, an Extraordinary Rank-6 Elite Silver Guard fired the single rocket launcher on his shoulder, and the rocket flew for two hundred meters and blew up a target that was made of the shell of a Tyrant Lizard and could resist an Extraordinary Rank-7 attack!
On the peak of the Eagle Men’s mountain, next to the Sweet Dew Lake, the set of Bronze Dragon-Patterned Bells that was more than two meters tall was hanging and emitting concrete soundwaves under the gale.
Underneath the bells, Gongsun Sheng sat cross-legged with a lot of clouds surging around him. He looked even more unworldly!
Whoosh!
At the place near the top, a green eagle that looked almost real took an eight-legged sea monster into a cave and turned into Yan Qing.
“Caw! Caw! Caw……”
Then, a golden light flashed.
The Golden Condors whose feathers were dark red dashed out while crying warmly.
Those fierce birds that were bred with the eggs left by the Eagle Men had all grown to almost two meters tall. They were enough to serve as mounts for an air force! ……
Of the four islands, only the Lava Island where smoke was popping up was relatively peaceful.
However, some people were solemnly standing at the crater ignoring the heat, the poisonous smoke, and the magma.
Those soldiers were the “Magma Battalion” that were summoned with the Fire Core offerings over these days. They were on patrol under the command of Zhao Yun who was holding the Snow Spear.
Dozens of meters down the crater, Ji Ye, who was completely naked except for the void ring, sat cross-legged at the edge of the magma, and his aura was changing quickly.
Ten days had passed since the Magma Monsters were defeated. The Twin Dragon Island settlement had been developing fast over these days.
However, Ji Ye had been doing only one thing during the ten days. He had been training in seclusion in the crater!
Of course, his training was not simple but divided into multiple steps.
First of all, Ji Ye’s Fusion talent cooled down three times during the ten days.
The items he fused included a Fire Core that a Magma Monster Boss dropped and a Fire Diamond that was of Perfect quality.
After fusing with the Fire Core, Ji Ye mastered the Extraordinary power to manipulate magma similarly to the Magma Monsters. After fusing the power of the fire element inside the Perfect Fire Diamond with the Five Thunder Heavenly Spirit Technique, he got a new technique named Sunbathing!
This technique gave him such high resistance to heat and flames that he could even bathe inside the sun.
Of course, because the Extraordinary techniques weren’t really marvelous, Ji Ye couldn’t endure the temperature on the surface of the sun, which was only six thousand degrees, not to mention the interior where nuclear reactions were ongoing.
However, the magma at the crater was only three thousand degrees, and he could totally bathe in the fire.
He had chosen this place because the Yin and Yang Sutra was a combination of the Nine Yang Divine Art and the Nine Yin Sutra.
Originally, the Nine Yang Divine Art had focused on the ultimate yang and fire.
However, the Yin and Yang Sutra highlighted the compatibility of yin and yang, and it needed water as much as it needed fire.
“It’s time!”
Ji Ye, who sat cross-legged at the edge of the magma, suddenly opened his eyes.
A purple light flashed on his hand, and three items appeared.
In his left hand was a Jade Dragon Pendant that seemed to be made of ice, and in his right hand was a transparent statue of a fiery dragon that seemed to be carved with real flames!
Apart from them, the Eye Painting Brush, which was also transparent, was floating in midair!
After the three items were taken out, the Flood Dragon Blood and Dragon Aura on Ji Ye all surged into the Eye Painting Brush.
He then pointed the tip of the brush at the items in his two hands.
The Eye Painting Brush painted the eyes of the two dragons!
“Roar!”
After a dragon roar, the Extraordinary Rank-8 Jade Dragon Pendant flashed and turned into a transparent Flood Dragon that was about fifteen meters long!
The moment it appeared, abundant water vapors surged out and briefly stagnated the magma that had been seething and bubbling.
“Roar!”
However, another dragon roar immediately echoed.
The transparent and tiny fire dragon statue also turned into a dragon that was about fifteen meters long and echoed with the magma down below.
