Chapter 27 Awakening the Five Thunder Spirits
Some people are happy that someone is worried.

Song Heng retired and returned to his hometown, while Zhou Sheng was thrown into prison.

This means that the positions of Minister of Justice and Head of the Secret Realm Bureau are suddenly vacant.

Some people are already ready to make a move.

When Zhou Haochen walked out of the Golden Palace leaning on a rosewood cane, he saw Song Heng's lonely back as he left, and felt a sigh in his heart.

Yesterday, Song Heng was still the Minister of Justice who had repeatedly solved major cases and was in great glory, and he had a chance to join the cabinet.

Today, after the case of the Earth Mother Tree Realm, Song Heng was demoted to the lowest position and directly retired and returned to his hometown. It can be said that it was fate that played tricks on him.

Watch him build a tall building!

Look at him entertaining guests!

Watching his building collapse!

All the momentum that the Second Prince had built up for Song Heng was gone.

"Your Highness, are you hurt?"

As soon as he walked out of the palace gate, Qin Qiulan trotted over with an anxious look on his face and checked Zhou Haochen's body. When he found that he was not injured, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Auntie Lan, don't worry, I'm not hurt."

"I also caught a thief from the White Lotus Sect."

When Qin Qiulan heard that Zhou Haochen had captured a thief from the White Lotus Sect, he became frightened again.

There was a hint of resentment in her almond-shaped eyes, as if she was blaming Zhou Haochen for doing such a dangerous thing.

"Let's go back home first. I want to go into seclusion."

The four treasures needed to awaken the Five Thunder Spirits are all complete, and Zhou Haochen can't wait to awaken the Five Thunder Spirits.

After returning to the palace, Zhou Haochen enjoyed dinner with Qin Qiulan's service, took a bath and changed clothes before starting to practice.

According to the records in the inheritance of the Thunder God Seal, in order to open the Five Thunder Spirit Body, one needs to refine the Thunder Beast's Horn, the Water Moon Lotus's Lotus Seeds, and the Falling Dust Crystal Sand into a meridian-protecting spiritual liquid in that order and integrate it into the body.

Finally, he used his physical body to contain the innate divine purple thunder, tempered his body with the power of thunder, completely changed his bones, and opened up the five thunder spirit body.

The whole process involves certain risks, especially the last step, when the innate divine purple thunder enters the body.

If there is no protection from the meridian-protecting spiritual fluid, if one recklessly absorbs the innate divine purple thunder, one will directly turn into a ball of charcoal.

Zhou Haochen did not choose to retreat alone, but asked Qin Qiulan to help him.

The only person he could absolutely trust was Qin Qiulan. He couldn't let Concubine Yun leave the palace to protect him.

"Aunt Lan, do as I said and refine the Thunder Beast's horn, the Water Moon Lotus seeds and the Fallen Crystal Sand into spiritual liquid." Zhou Haochen said softly.

After Qin Qiulan listened to Zhou Haochen's instructions, the confusion in her eyes flowed out like a trickle of water.

"Your Highness, the formula of this spiritual fluid seems to be...prepared for the body to contain thunder..."

Qin Qiulan saw through the purpose of the meridian protecting elixir at a glance, which surprised Zhou Haochen slightly.

"Auntie Lan, you are right. This is the meridian protection spirit liquid. After taking it, I plan to absorb the innate divine purple thunder and open the five thunder spirit body."

"Your Highness, this is too dangerous!"

"The Xiantian Shenxiao Purple Thunder is one of the six great divine thunders. It is extremely domineering. Practitioners below the lower three realms will die if they touch it. Even practitioners in the upper three realms dare not easily get involved."

Qin Qiulan was anxious. In her opinion, the risk of activating the Five Thunder Spirit Body was too great.

"Auntie Lan, don't worry, I'm sure."

"Help me protect the law."

Zhou Haochen chuckled and spoke comfortingly with a relaxed expression.

The Thunder God Seal is the best hexagram. It can activate the Five Thunder Spirits and most of the time there will be no major problems.

What's more, even if an accident occurs, with the meridian-protecting spiritual liquid, one will not die.

"Your Highness, have you really decided to open the Five Thunder Spirit Body and switch to Taoism?"

After a slight hesitation, Zhou Haochen nodded to Qin Qiulan.

Although the royal family's ancient Emperor Dragon Transformation Scripture is powerful, it also has great limitations.

Only by using the dragon energy of Dayu can one cultivate to the peak and become a martial saint. Even if one has the Bagua map and countless opportunities, one can continuously obtain the dragon energy of the previous dynasty.

However, compared with the dragon energy of the previous dynasty, it is just a drop in the bucket.

Even though the dragon energy of the previous dynasty continued, Zhou Haochen estimated that practicing the Ancient Emperor's Dragon Transformation Sutra to the ninth level of martial arts - Grandmaster - was already the limit.

If one wants to advance to the upper three realms, one must have the dragon energy of Dayu.

This also means that he must succeed in his bid for the throne, then live longer than Emperor Qianyuan and successfully ascend the throne.

This process is too passive, so Zhou Haochen plans to switch to Taoism.

Seeing Zhou Haochen so determined, Qin Qiulan had no choice but to show a trace of helplessness on her face.

With her slender jade hands, her ten fingers moved in unison, as smoothly as flowing water, using the alchemy furnace that had been prepared long ago to refine the meridian-protecting spiritual liquid.

The meridian-protecting elixir is not difficult to refine. Even a layman in alchemy like Qin Qiulan can do it easily.

After a cup of tea.

A ball of green spiritual liquid was suspended in the alchemy furnace. Even with eyes closed, one could feel the vitality in the meridian-protecting spiritual liquid.

Zhou Haochen opened his mouth and sucked the meridian-protecting spiritual liquid directly into his mouth.

The meridian-protecting elixir tastes cool when it enters the mouth, just like eating frozen pudding.

It was clearly spiritual liquid that had just come out of the oven. It was extremely hot and still emitting steam, but it tasted icy cold. The mystery of the two worlds of ice and fire made Zhou Haochen marvel.

The meridian protecting spiritual liquid entered the body, and a layer of green halo appeared above the tendons and veins, like a protective film, protecting Zhou Haochen's meridians.

When the stopper of the jade bottle was opened, crackling sounds suddenly rang out in the quiet room.

The blue-purple light filled the entire quiet room.

Qin Qiulan's elegant face became tense, and her almond-shaped eyes stared at the innate divine purple thunder in the jade bottle.

This innate divine purple thunder is extremely domineering and violent.

Even with the jade bottle storing it, the escaping lightning alone made Qin Qiulan feel a tingling sensation on his skin, as if countless tiny electric currents were flowing through him.

If you really take it, it will be absorbed into your body.

Just thinking about it made Qin Qiulan's scalp tingle.

Zhou Haochen did not hesitate too much. He stretched out his index finger and gently touched the innate divine purple thunder at the mouth of the bottle with his fingertips.

The innate divine purple thunder was like a shark that smelled blood and drilled directly into Zhou Haochen's body.

Crackling!

The sound of frying beans could be heard.

So clearly audible.

Zhou Haochen only felt a piercing pain on his fingertips.

However, this piercing pain was fleeting and soon disappeared.

Because Zhou Haochen had been numbed by the electricity and could not feel the pain.

The innate divine purple thunder, like a prehistoric beast, brutally drilled into Zhou Haochen's meridians.

Violent, brutal, unreasonable, destroying everything as if to destroy the world.

If Zhou Haochen could look inside himself, he would definitely see it clearly.

Wherever the innate divine purple thunder passed, the meridians were all damaged and destroyed, as if they were ravaged by an invisible and violent force.

But then, the green light on the meridians emitted a strong vitality, repairing the destroyed tendons and veins.

destroy!

repair!

destroy!

repair!

So the cycle goes back and forth!
