Chapter 63

Thirst, heat!

This was a thirst and heat that no normal person could endure. Xiao Hai, standing under the faucet, gulped down water continuously, but this time, the feeling of thirst not only failed to ease but became even more intense.

Xiao Hai's stomach was also getting more and more bloated.

This was a vicious cycle. On one hand, he was desperately thirsty and needed to drink a lot of water; otherwise, it felt like a fire was burning inside him. On the other hand, his stomach's capacity could no longer support such rapid hydration.

If he stopped drinking, he would die of thirst. If he kept drinking, his stomach would burst!

What should he do?

Xiao Hai knew he couldn't continue like this. With great willpower, he finally pulled his mouth away from the faucet.

But it didn't work. The fire that had been barely suppressed inside him flared up again as soon as it lacked water to control it.

The fire started burning from his heart and gradually spread throughout his body.

Worse still, the Dragon Spirit Pearl had combined with the fire, turning the entire pearl a fiery red, generating intense heat that scorched Xiao Hai.

This was like adding fuel to the fire!

At this moment, Xiao Hai felt as if he had been thrown into a blazing fire.

The water in his body was being burned away bit by bit, but the bloating in his stomach did not decrease at all.

Xiao Hai clutched his throat, suffering greatly. The fire was burning throughout his body!

Water, water!

But his stomach could not hold another drop of water!

Xiao Hai frantically opened the refrigerator, and a cool breeze rushed out, but it was quickly evaporated by the fire on his body. He opened the freezer and grabbed whatever he could, ice cubes, frost, and stuffed them into his mouth and applied them to his body.

It didn't work! It only provided a brief respite from the pain!

What was going on? Could it be the Golden Eagle Essence?

His consciousness began to blur, and Xiao Hai's gaze suddenly fell on something in the refrigerator:

The Queen Snake's Gallbladder!

This gallbladder, after so many days, showed no signs of decay and had become even clearer and greener.

"Your Majesty, the gallbladder in the backpack is a great thing. As soon as I get close to it, I can feel a cool, refreshing energy. It has been replenishing my energy all along the way."

Turtle Spirit's words suddenly echoed in Xiao Hai's mind.

Cool, refreshing energy? Replenishing energy?

Xiao Hai's mind flashed with an idea. In this life-or-death situation, he didn't have much to lose. Dying of thirst was death, and being poisoned by the snake venom in the gallbladder was also death.

Either way, it was death. Might as well take the risk!

Xiao Hai grabbed the gallbladder, and as soon as he touched it, a refreshing and comfortable sensation spread throughout his body, and the feeling of thirst diminished significantly.

There was hope!

Xiao Hai, with a determined heart, placed the gallbladder in his mouth.

To his surprise, as soon as the gallbladder entered his mouth, it immediately turned into a cold, icy liquid that flowed down his throat and into his body.

The Dragon Spirit Pearl moved! It sensed the entry of the gallbladder's liquid and quickly merged with it.

The effect of the Queen Snake's Gallbladder was astonishing. The fire quickly disappeared, and the burning sensation rapidly subsided. Two minutes later, the Dragon Spirit Pearl and the gallbladder had perfectly merged.

Not only did the burning sensation disappear, but the feeling of thirst also vanished.

Xiao Hai let out a long breath, relieved to have survived. But before he could celebrate, something worse happened.

The heat and thirst were gone, but Xiao Hai suddenly realized that his body temperature was rapidly dropping.

Cold—extremely cold!

At this moment, Xiao Hai felt as if he had been thrown from a blazing fire into an ice hole!

His body trembled with cold, and his teeth chattered uncontrollably.

Help! Heaven, just let me die!

Xiao Hai wrapped himself in a blanket, but the cold did not diminish.

If the fire had been roasting his body, the cold now felt like a needle pricking his skin bit by bit.

Xiao Hai felt his entire body freezing!

Great, just great! Not dying of heat and thirst, now he was going to freeze to death!

At this moment, the Dragon Spirit Pearl, now completely merged with the Queen Snake's Gallbladder, had turned crystal clear, and all the cold came from it.

"Are you not letting me live? Then let's die together!"

Xiao Hai's fierce and stubborn nature was fully awakened by the continuous torment.

The Golden Eagle Essence tormenting me is fun, right? The Queen Snake's Gallbladder tormenting me is fun, right? The Dragon Spirit Pearl tormenting me is also fun, right?

Then let's die together!

Xiao Hai threw off the blanket and, with all his strength, took out the jade elephant, and with a knife, he slashed his arm, and blood gushed out.

What was going on? Xiao Hai suspected his eyes were playing tricks on him. The blood he saw was red, but it had a faint golden hue.

Red blood with a golden hue?

His eyes must be playing tricks on him!

Xiao Hai couldn't care less. He dripped the blood onto the jade elephant and then pressed the jade elephant to his dantian.

This was his body, and he would decide what happened to it. No one could wreak havoc inside his body! If he couldn't control it, he would die with it!

The jade elephant, which had been immune to human blood, quickly absorbed the golden blood.

As soon as it approached his dantian, a powerful spiritual energy surged into his body.

The fusion effect of the blood did not last long. After a portion of the spiritual energy was infused, the jade elephant's energy flow stopped.

But even that small amount of energy was significant. The spiritual energy from the jade elephant, which had absorbed the essence of the sun and moon for three thousand years, entered Xiao Hai's body like an emperor inspecting his new territory.

Xiao Hai was in deep trouble.

The cold did not diminish, and the jade elephant's spiritual energy became a sharp blade, cutting through his body.

The pain Xiao Hai endured was unimaginable.

At this moment, the phone rang. Go to hell, Xiao Hai was about to die, who had time to answer the phone?

The Dragon Spirit Pearl, seeing an uninvited guest in its territory, was furious and desperately tried to absorb the spiritual energy.

The jade elephant's spiritual energy, however, would not let it have its way. It was the emperor of jade and the tyrant of spiritual energy, having absorbed the essence of the sun and moon for three thousand years!

The Dragon Spirit Pearl and the spiritual energy were locked in a fierce battle, each trying to devour the other. Gradually, the Dragon Spirit Pearl began to change from green to a light yellow.

The Dragon Spirit Pearl, fighting on its home turf and with immense power, grew stronger. More importantly, the spiritual energy that entered Xiao Hai's body was only a fraction of the jade elephant's total energy. If all of it had been infused, both the Dragon Spirit Pearl and Xiao Hai's body would have been destroyed.

However, although the Dragon Spirit Pearl had the upper hand, it could not defeat the spiritual energy, which had absorbed the essence of the sun and moon for three thousand years, in a short time.

Xiao Hai suddenly felt all the energy in his body being drawn to the Dragon Spirit Pearl, leaving him extremely weak. Fortunately, the unbearable cold had greatly diminished.

He was not mistaken. The Dragon Spirit Pearl had absorbed all the energy in his body and then emitted a powerful yellow light, completely enveloping the jade elephant's spiritual energy.

This was a do-or-die battle. If the spiritual energy broke free, the Dragon Spirit Pearl would have no defense, and the result would be mutual destruction.

Xiao Hai was unlucky, but he was also fortunate.

At the critical moment when the Dragon Spirit Pearl was trying to contain the spiritual energy, the gallbladder exerted its power! All the energy concentrated, enveloping the Dragon Spirit Pearl and the spiritual energy, and in an instant, a large ice block formed inside Xiao Hai's body.

Xiao Hai was frozen stiff!

In the scorching summer, a living person was really frozen stiff!

The Dragon Spirit Pearl, already merged with the gallbladder, was not affected by the ice, but the spiritual energy was completely immobilized.

Then, the Dragon Spirit Pearl began to absorb the ice block formed by the jade elephant's spiritual energy and the gallbladder's energy.

The process was slow but effective.

The jade elephant's spiritual energy and the gallbladder's energy were gradually absorbed into the Dragon Spirit Pearl, and the color of the pearl began to change rapidly.

The green gradually faded, and the pearl turned yellow.

At this moment, a yellow light appeared on Xiao Hai's frozen body, gradually dispelling the cold and restoring his consciousness.

The yellow light grew stronger and stronger!

Unfortunately, Xiao Qi was not there. Otherwise, this dog, who valued taking advantage more than life itself, would have benefited immensely.

The last bit of the jade elephant's spiritual energy and the last bit of the gallbladder's energy were finally absorbed, and the Dragon Spirit Pearl turned completely yellow.

Then, a powerful energy burst forth from the Dragon Spirit Pearl, not only returning the energy it had absorbed from Xiao Hai's body but also launching a fierce attack on the Chong Pulse.

It had completely merged with the jade elephant's spiritual energy and the gallbladder's energy, and this powerful energy flow was not something the Chong Pulse could withstand.

Once the Chong Pulse was breached, a familiar warm energy flow began to circulate throughout Xiao Hai's body.

Ten minutes later, Xiao Hai let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes. He moved his body and found that it was not damaged at all, and he felt even stronger than before.

Even if he faced the golden eagles again, he could easily defeat them!

The third layer of the Dragon Spirit Pearl, a layer of incredible power, was broken through in this life-or-death situation:

The Ocean Pearl!
