98. One is not afraid of suffering, and the other is not afraid of death
Cheng Peng had seen the power of the Heavenly Tribulation before, and he could even call it a close encounter with the Heavenly Tribulation. But it was obvious that the Heavenly Thunder he came into contact with last time was completely different from the one he was watching this time.
thing.
Needless to say, the difference in power intensity, the degree of concentration of the power of the two catastrophes cannot be compared at all - that earth-shattering punch scattered the clouds in the sky, stirring up countless concentric circles that almost enveloped the entire sky; almost reaching the ground
When it was in the air, it only caused a shock wave that did not exceed a radius of ten miles. When it reached the water, it only caused a wave of a hundred feet around. When it broke through the formation and killed the Dragon King, it was just an ordinary punch. In addition to killing the Dragon King, it was just an ordinary punch.
Afterwards, the aftermath shattered the entire ground, without even setting off a shock wave.
This is of course not that the power of the Heavenly Tribulation is weakening rapidly, but that the power of the Heavenly Tribulation is constantly shrinking and condensing, and finally reaches a terrifying point.
"This level of power...I'm afraid it's no longer seven-star or eight-star...maybe it's nine-star, right?" Cheng Peng clasped his hands together and paid a moment of silence to the ashes that used to be Osawa Longjun, "Can
If you die under such a big move, Dragon Lord, Dragon Lord, you can be considered to have died an honorable death..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly widened his eyes and stared at the ash.
Among the fly ash, there are many tiny light spots flickering faintly!
Cheng Peng didn't have time to think about it, and immediately used the Shukuchi technique to its extreme, and rushed over with a single lunge.
No matter what those shiny things are, it’s necessary to try to catch a handful!
In fact, there are only two possibilities for those things, either they are the remnants of the Dragon King or the remnants of the Heavenly Tribulation. If it is the former, then the things that can withstand the test of the Heavenly Tribulation and remain are definitely first-class.
This is a good thing that should not be missed; and if it is the latter, the little power of the Heavenly Tribulation left after killing the Dragon King may be able to bring him unexpected benefits.
Of course, even if you guess wrong, it's not a big deal. The worst-case scenario is that you will be killed by the catastrophe that has not been weakened enough and will be weak for a few days.
No matter how you look at it, this is a very cost-effective deal.
Of course, Cheng Peng didn't think about it carefully. He just rushed out out of experience or intuition.
With his speed, he sprinted with all his strength and crossed half the square in less than a second. He came to the fly ash mixed with many light spots, and reached out to grab a light spot that seemed to be slightly larger.
.
Before his palm could catch the light spot, a strong electric current bounced off the light spot and landed on his palm.
The electric light flashed, and then he saw a large piece of burnt black on the palm of his hand, which was originally as white as a scholar due to the innate Qi maintenance, followed by a curl of green smoke and a smell of burnt flesh, which was enough to withstand an ordinary sword.
A large piece of his palm was burned to pieces without resistance, and he could even see the white bones inside through the burnt flesh!
What followed was the expected severe burning pain, the pain of being burned alive until the skin was scorched and the flesh was rotten. Heroes like Cheng Peng couldn't help but have their eyesight go dark, and they gritted their teeth to keep from screaming.
(Damn Adventure Operations Bureau! Why not give an option to temporarily turn off the character’s physical senses! This is contempt for human rights!)
In his heart, he scolded the young administrators of the Great Adventure Operations Bureau over and over again, but Cheng Peng still kept reaching out his hand to grab the dots of light mixed with the thunder and fire of the tribulation.
He has a reason for doing this.
Although the skin and flesh were burned to pieces, the light spot was firmly placed in his inventory. After seeing clearly what it was, Cheng Peng couldn't care less about the pain.
It was a small crystal shaped like an eight-pointed star, emitting a charming purple light, as if it was still flashing. The beautiful luster contained a mysterious charm that made people reluctant to look away.
And after seeing its properties, Cheng Peng made up his mind - even if his hands were burned to pieces, he would collect as many as possible!
[Star Sand: The raw material of the seven-star magic weapon. It is obtained by picking the fragments of fallen stars from the nine heavens and calcining them with spiritual fire to remove impurities. It is one of the twenty-four spiritual objects of Taoism. 】
Cheng Peng didn't know what the "Twenty-four Taoist Enlightenment Spirits of Xuanmen" were, but the seven-star raw materials were clear. This alone was worth the pain he endured to collect these fragments of star sand.
Especially when he saw a light spot falling on the ground under the water, and the light immediately dimmed and turned into an ordinary grain of gravel, he became even more anxious. He waved his hands rapidly, and in an instant it seemed that he had become an ordinary person.
Like the Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara, the electric light in the sky flashed continuously, and the green smoke almost became one piece, as if his whole body was covered in the green smoke.
In order to improve the efficiency of collecting star sand fragments in the air, Cheng Peng even used the "body snatching method" that Li Wei boasted more than once - according to the rules of the game of Adventure, any unowned items that can be freely collected by players,
As long as any part of the body touches it, it can be put into the inventory. It does not have to be grabbed by hand.
According to this rule, classmate Li Wei invented the unique skill of using his whole body to hit someone, directly knocking others away, and then hit the treasure with his head, completing the great task of robbing the treasure.
With this unique skill, he has defeated the cunning treasure hunters more than once in treasure hunting adventures and gained a larger share of the profits.
Cheng Peng originally didn't want to use this method, but as the saying goes, money is attractive to people, so if you ignore the benefits and don't grab them, wouldn't that mean your head is in trouble?
Although if he uses his body to catch the star sand, he will definitely be burned badly by the thunder and fire of the heavenly tribulation, but since he has made up his mind to save money instead of his life, it is not a pity even if he is burned to a pulp.
As a man, you should be tougher on yourself!
"...This seems to be what Li Wei often said..." Cheng Peng was a little distracted because of the severe pain, but his body movements were not slow at all. His whole body seemed to turn into a phantom, quickly collecting the dot in the air.
As he picked up the falling star sand, he was still talking to himself, as if this method could distract him a little and make the pain less obvious.
"By the way, doesn't the game system have automatic disconnection protection? As long as pain, fear or other intense emotions reach a certain level, the player will be automatically disconnected to protect his mental stability and avoid mental harm... Why do I
They’ve all been cooked to medium rare, and the disconnection protection hasn’t been activated yet?”
According to a psychological point of view, Cheng Peng's mental state at this moment is indeed a little abnormal. However, for some reason, the Adventure game system, which always pays attention to human rights, remained silent this time and allowed him to continue his activities in this strange state.
Quickly collecting the star sand all over the sky.
"Where did these star sands come from? Let me think about it... Osawa Ryuu may have collected star sand and mixed it into the magic weapon in order to improve the resistance of the magic weapon to natural disasters - well, star sand is probably a very small number
Something that is not easily destroyed by a natural disaster, right? This is a really good idea, but although the star sand can resist the natural disaster, the other materials in the magic weapon cannot... It's like someone combined steel plates with plastic sheets
, claiming that this steel plate can block rifle bullets, but forgetting that the strength of the plastic sheet will certainly not be able to withstand the impact of rifle bullets... When the catastrophe fell, those materials that could not withstand the catastrophe were all ashes, leaving only the materials that were originally made of them.
The condensed star sand flew all over the sky... Well, that must be it..."
The whispers gradually became darker, and the light spots in the air gradually decreased. Finally, when Cheng Peng caught another piece of star sand and wanted to continue, he found that there were no more glowing fragments in the air, left, right, front, rear, and left.
When he opened the inventory, he saw that this desperate act had brought him more than 300 pieces of star sand!
He thought for a moment and dialed Wei Ye's private chat.
"Wei Ye, have you heard of 'star sand'?"
Wei Ye was stunned for a moment, seemed to check some information, and asked: "You said 'Star Sand', not 'Tianhe Star Sand'?"
In order to emphasize, he also typed this sentence in words.
"Of course." Cheng Peng said a rare sentence, "It is the 'star sand'!"
"Damn! That's the best material used by Xuanmen to make magic weapons. It's one of the twenty-four raw materials used by the immortals to make spiritual treasures! If we can get 800 Qian'er, we can make something similar to the one used by the Eight Immortals in Shangdong.
Something of the same level as a magic weapon - well, you know Zhu Bajie's nine-tooth rake, right? It is made of the same level of materials." Wei Ye seemed quite excited and asked, "Po Jun, are you sure you can find it?
Did you get star sand? Let me open my eyes a little bit! I have only seen this thing in illustrated books!"
Cheng Peng laughed and mailed one to him.
Just when he clicked the button to send the letter, he suddenly realized that he had just received a lot of system notifications without knowing it...
——————
One is not afraid of hardship, and the other is not afraid of death. This is the spirit of players when facing benefits.
If there is a benefit in front of you, of course you have to fight for it! This is an upright matter and there is nothing shameful about it.
People who are ashamed of speaking about money and are not even willing to say the word "money" are definitely not gentlemen, but hypocritical to the point of psychological distortion...
