Night without Borders

Chapter 74: Rebirth in the Light
In Chixia Mountain and the Thunder and Fire Alchemy Hall, lightning intertwined and fireballs rolled on the bright tiles. This spectacle attracted the admiration of many nobles.

On the other side, there were cries of grief. Some family members came here to claim the bodies, with sadness unconcealed on their faces.

"This guy doesn't seem like a good person. He deliberately put the corpse inside to carry more heavenly light and spiritual substances."

Two people were whispering not far away and glanced at Qin Ming's corpse collector. As colleagues, they knew the ins and outs of this matter very well.

"It's a little too much."

"Hey, that's not right. Look, the body he pulled out doesn't seem to be damaged at all. It's almost the same as the first batch that were pulled out."

The two of them showed surprise and immediately moved over to take a closer look.

There were thick clouds in the sky, with lightning and thunder, and the ground was covered with rosy clouds. The entire mountain was not dark, and it could even be said to be very bright. One could clearly see that Qin Ming had died tragically, and his exposed skin was completely black.

In fact, he painted his face black on his own initiative, and his true appearance can no longer be seen.

When Xu Hai saw the intact corpse, his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that because he delayed, he ended up killing a genius?
Only after the sixth burst of light did he slowly pull the rope, and the seventh burst of light seemed to have slightly touched this man.

"Xu Hai, are you taking action too late? This guy is quite powerful and can withstand the thunder, fire and light of heaven." Someone spoke.

Xu Hai's face was calm, and he said, "What are you thinking? I had already dragged him out of the Golden Palace gate in advance, but I didn't pull him back immediately."

Someone nearby nodded and said, "That's true. He doesn't seem to be very old. He will explode in one or two rays of light."

Qin Ming remembered the name Xu Hai. This man was just talking nonsense. If anyone else was tortured like this in the Thunder and Fire Alchemy Hall, they would surely die.

He had already mastered the secret technique of "Harmony with the Light and Dust" to its fullest extent, and now he was no different from a corpse.

Qin Ming sighed in his heart. This area was full of "acquaintances". The 72-year-old Old Zhao was at least 80% familiar, but his body was not yet fully put together.

Except for a group of old men who want to revive their dead wood, everyone else comes here because of their own difficulties.

If given a choice, no young and strong man would be willing to come here and risk his life. Some do so because they have enemies who have driven them into despair, some have been bullied and forced to the point where they can no longer survive, and some are already death row prisoners.

The ground was covered with steam and the drizzle was misty. The penetrating sound of a suona was heard, and then some coffins were carried up the mountain, accompanied by bursts of weeping.

These are the families of the old men of status, who have come to take the bodies back.

Xu Hai found a relatively clean piece of black cloth, wrapped Qin Ming in it, and carried him down the mountain.

Qin Ming thought to himself that it was fortunate that Xu Hai was quite professional in this regard and did not throw the "corpse" around randomly, otherwise he would definitely have to pretend to be dead again.

But he soon changed his mind!

"Old Xu, how much is this thunder meat? It looks quite intact. Give it to me and I will help you deliver it to the noble mansion."

Before he even got down the mountain, someone came to find Xu Hai. Apparently, a similar transaction had taken place before.

Xu Hai said: "This is a top-notch medicine man. I let him 'settle' there for quite a while. He absorbed at least six or seven waves of heavenly light and rare spiritual substances."

"Stop lying!"

"If you don't believe me, forget it. Besides, I don't plan to sell the thunder meat as a whole this time. If you want, I can sell you a few pounds. After all, the employer paid a high price for it, and I can't really throw the body away. The kidneys and the heart, you can take whatever you want."

Qin Ming was deeply surprised to encounter some man-eating "monsters".

Xu Hai carried Qin Ming down the mountain. Four groups of people came to him one after another and expressed their desire to buy a few kilograms. They had already started bargaining.

During this process, Qin Ming could no longer bear it, and quietly pressed the yellow mud palm, which he had never used on anyone before, on Xu Hai's back. The soft force was very subtle and would not explode immediately. It would take a few days for this person to cough up blood.

Soon, Qin Ming's body began to heat up continuously, and he felt that if he delayed any further, he would be in danger of being exposed.

The mixture of thunder, fire and sky light gave birth to a special spiritual substance, which was now beginning to take effect. His fourth rebirth had officially begun.

"I'm telling you, this isn't one of those old-timers. This is a young boy with delicate skin and tender flesh. If you don't believe me, come and touch him. His body isn't stiff yet, and it's even warm."

"Xu Hai, what are you doing!" Xu Sheng came, covered in a black robe, and was very angry. Fortunately, he did not wait at the foot of the mountain, otherwise his brother's body would have been sold.

With a bang, he kicked Xu Hai away, picked up Qin Ming, and carried him down the mountain quickly.

When Wu Zheng saw him at the foot of the mountain, he immediately cried out sadly: "Hey, Brother Qin, have a safe journey. I hope you can be reborn into a wealthy family in your next life, preferably a thousand-year-old family. In that case, you won't have to fight so hard."

Xu Sheng also sighed and said, "Xiao Qin didn't listen to advice and died young. It's a pity!"

Soon, he felt something was wrong. Why was his back getting hotter and hotter? At the same time, he heard a faint whisper: "Brother Xu, find a place where there is no one."

Xu Sheng's hands shook and he almost threw the body out.

"He's resurrected from the dead?!" Wu Zheng opened his eyes wide.

Not long after, Qin Ming washed his face with clean water in the dense forest and changed into a new set of clothes.

"I actually saw someone who survived the impact of the skylight and walked out of the Thunder Fire Alchemy Hall alive!" Xu Sheng was deeply shocked. Wu Zheng was dumbfounded, and then he said excitedly: "Brother Qin, you are really amazing, you can come out alive from that pile of dead bodies!"

"Let's go back and talk!" Qin Ming left first. His body was burning hot and almost smoking, and he needed to get back to the inn quickly.

Soon after, he finished bathing and washed away the ashes thoroughly, but was soon submerged in the mist again, and this time his transformation was very violent.

In addition to the spiritual substances bestowed by God, a lot of heavenly light had also entered his body and was raging, surging throughout his body and almost burning him up.

At this time, no matter what secret method Qin Ming used, he could not suppress it. He began to use the new method on the silk book to guide and sort out the disordered light beams.

I have to say that the light from the outside world is too overbearing, just like red-hot molten iron, which can almost burn people through. Ordinary people really can't stand it.

This was not the first time that Qin Ming was eroded by the light of heaven, but this time the total amount of light of heaven was too much, making him a little overwhelmed.

He drank a lot of cold water, but white mist continued to rise from his body.

Wu Zheng said, "Brother Qin is about to become an immortal. It feels like he is flying in the clouds. The temperament of people outside the world is just like this."

"That's the light of heaven stirring up the sky. It makes him feel like he's back in his mother's womb, or as if he's been born bathed in light. His rebirth is much more vigorous than that of an ordinary person!" Xu Sheng exclaimed.

Soon, the two of them withdrew from the courtyard in the inn that Qin Ming had specially booked for the new student, as they felt it was not appropriate to watch.

"I don't know whether I should thank Xu Hai or scold him." The skylight in Qin Ming's body was unusually strong.

He endured the severe pain and combed the light from the outside world, merging it with the light from the sky that was born from his own flesh and blood. You are in me and I am in you, becoming a brand new light from the sky, a gradual qualitative change.

Qin Ming gathered all the light from the sky towards his abdomen, compressing it infinitely like a ball of light, integrating it as much as possible and forcing it to transform, making it brighter and brighter.

Afterwards, he released the dazzling round pill, allowing it to explode once again in disorder. The skylight turned into thousands of rays, rushing into his flesh, bones, and internal organs, burning like a raging flame.

It was like a huge explosion of sky light.

This is extremely dangerous and could result in loss of life.

However, this is how the new law was recorded in the silk book, and it can be expected that there will be more dangerous processes later.

Qin Ming heard the sound of a tsunami. It was the light in the sky expanding and erupting fiercely, making his consciousness hazy, as if he was about to be overwhelmed.

It is clearly a new life, but it feels like a death crisis!
Qin Ming was somewhat skeptical. The people who studied and created silk calligraphy wanted to make the later generations walk on the line between life and death. It was estimated that many of their descendants had died.

Otherwise, the new method recorded in this silk book would not have been abandoned by later generations and swept into the dust of history.

This goes against the original intention of the law creators, who wanted to break the cage and create a completely new path, but it turned out to be worse than the existing path.

Finally, Qin Ming's eyes became clear again and he survived.

"The magic in the silk book is too dangerous, but as long as you can endure it and make it through alive, the power you gain is indeed strong enough, and your physical fitness is much higher than that of other freshmen."

Qin Ming melted the skylight nine times in a row, compressed them, and then let them explode.

By the ninth time, the ball of light in his body had become very small, and the universe had returned to one. The light from the outside world and the light from the human body had assimilated into one, undergoing a complete qualitative change.

After a short rest, Qin Ming went to practice some newly acquired Tianguang Jin techniques.

Soft power, originated from the ancient book of Jinjiling, is a composite Tianguang power method and the foundation of Huangni Palm.

He had already understood it and knew how to practice. What he lacked was only the total amount of daylight.

Today, he was "initiation" by the otherworldly light in the Thunder and Fire Alchemy Hall, the effect of which was even stronger than taking the tricolor flower. He then practiced soft strength, continuously pushing his level upwards.

The feeling of practicing this method of strength was so wonderful that Qin Ming was immersed in it and couldn't extricate himself. He practiced the soft strength to perfection, and the power of the yellow mud palm he struck out increased dramatically.

Afterwards, he practiced the hammer power and whip power in the new hammer method, and likewise there was no stagnation. With the increase of Tianguang power, the two power methods were also perfected.

Qin Ming unexpectedly discovered that the mysterious explosive force he obtained from the Thunder and Fire Alchemy Hall was extremely compatible with the hammer force and whip force, as if they were originally one.

When these three kinds of Tianguang Jin were fully practiced, they automatically merged into one. When he practiced that kind of hammer method again, the power was greatly enhanced.

"In the past, when I swung the long-handled black gold hammer in the Black and White Mountains, I was actually demonstrating sword skills, which can be called a hammer sword."

Now Qin Ming pulled out the mutton-fat jade iron knife and used the hammer technique, which could be called a "knife hammer"!
Finally, all the martial arts he had practiced were integrated into his original Tianguang martial arts, causing it to change again and its power to increase significantly!
He can still use soft power, intercepting power, explosive power, etc. separately, and once they are all integrated into one, he will reveal his trump card and burst out with overwhelming force.

In the inn, Xu Sheng and Wu Zheng were both surprised when they heard the thunder-like sound in Qin Ming's yard.

"No wonder Xiao Qin was so low-key this time, hiding his true intentions and wanting to enter the Thunder and Fire Alchemy Palace for the second time. He does have talents that are beyond the reach of ordinary people." Xu Sheng sighed.

A wave of sleepiness came over Qin Ming, but he did not fall asleep immediately. Instead, he sat quietly in the room. He knew that after waking up, his world might be completely different.
