Chapter 92 - Concluding the tempering

The new year had passed with Hua Mei's meridian tempering and since he started tempering her meridians at the beginning of November, her meridian tempering would actually perfectly land a dozen or so days before Yun Long's birthday.

Said Yun Long was currently slightly irritated, he currently had the feeling he felt a few months ago, the one that made him feel that he was forgetting something extremely important.

Yet no matter how many times he went through his memories he didn't feel like he was missing anything…

Hua Mei had actually gone against Yun Long's expectations by going through the mental tempering that would actually put her mental strength and will above even the peak experts of the Realm of Gods

'No… comparing my mother to such cowardly cultivators is disrespecting her, her will is actually impressive to even me… she is even more powerful than some cowardly gods and true devils I have learned of'.

------

It was finally eighty days since he had started to temper the meridians of Hua Mei, and the final day before she gains the Buddha Heart Divine Veins, joining Xia Qingyue, Xiao Lingxi and Dongxue as the only known people in the Primal Chaos to possess them.

'Hmm… in the future when I gain access to even a drop of the Divine Water of Absolute Beginning… hang on a second… the Divine Water of Absolute Beginning is Divine Water that had been touched by primordial energy… then what about water that is touched by origin energy? The Divine Water of Absolute Beginning is actually known as the Water of Origin…' Yun Long's face produced a devious smile.

'So maybe I could just create a lake of it in the Infinite Origin Void Realm and have an even better version, the version that is actually worthy of the title of the 'Water of Origin', and with their souls and bodies tempered with such an item will be extremely beneficial for my family…' Yun Long started to lose himself in greed again.

Thankfully he has a glass ceiling known as Hua Mei that will always bring him down to the earth when he lost himself in the heavens, as she drenched with a sweet kick of Icy Springs water delivered right to his dome.

Briefly coughing and readjusting himself, Yun Long tried to ȧssume a posture as if what had happened didn't, but Hua Mei's evil laughter didn't help him in his attempt to do so.

He then started charging slightly more origin energy so that he can merge it with the final petal of the Buddha Heart Lotus of Nine Resurrections, since every time he had tempered Hua Mei's body the strength required to snap her meridians was much higher each time, as was the energy it took to perfectly rejuvenate her broken meridians.

Unfortunately for Hua Mei, who already heard from Yun Long on the first day that the pain would actually incline slightly during the eighty-one days of tempering, experienced more pain with each passing day and knowing did not make the experience hurt any less.

Yun Long had prepared the origin energy burst he had prepared in a formation on his right hand, as he placed his left hand on her ċhėst, sending the usual matchless origin energy throughout her body which instantly burst out like a dragon bulldozed its way through any obstacles.

Hua Mei's pupils abruptly shrank as the meridians within her body all snapped, however as the profound energy was at the max limit of Yun Long could produce, the accuracy of what the origin energy destroyed also faltered a little, causing many blood vessels to rupture which in turn started to cause all of the veins in Hua Mei's skin and muscle to become totally distorted.

Yun Long also witnessed this scene during his final tempering with Dongxue, since Lingxi and Qingyue were within his profound strength range they were saved of this slight backlash…

This type of extreme pain which Hua Mei would have felt from every single point of her body, would actually be extremely beneficial polish her mental strength and also give her an early insight on the Divine Way's Sensation, meaning in the future she would comprehend the sensation much earlier than other cultivators.

However, nothing in this cultivation world was free… the pain it caused Hua Mei to feel was as if she had thousands of the world's hottest needles penetrate her body at all those points as Hua Mei's perfect body curled up into a fetal position indicating that she was currently going through an extreme physical and psychological trauma caused by the final tempering.

What surprised Yun Long though was Hua Mei would actually scream less as the pain increased, he really did wonder how the hell his mother became so overpowered.

If it wasn't for her comprehension that wasn't at the level of him, Qingyue and Lingxi, he would've ȧssumed that the new female main character of the Against the Gods universe was actually Hua Mei.

'There is no way that all of this is not related to the Black Lightning that struck her when she was pregnant with Lingxi...'

Once her body settled he placed her body on the surface of the Icy Springs once more… as the final petal of Hua Mei's Buddha Heart Lotus of Nine Resurrections was now in his hand, as he threw the root into the Infinite Origin Void Realm as he then placed his hands on her ċhėst as the final petal merged with her body.

Her body glowed extremely bright, incomparable to the other times, which Yun Long noticed to be the conclusion of the tempering, and her body giving birth to the Buddha Heart Divine Veins.

Hua Mei returned to consciousness and looked to her side to see Long'er fell asleep next to her on the side of the lake surface, and decided to pinch his cheeks a little, before she checked her body.

Noticing the difference in her meridians, which had changed into an extremely beautiful design, which confused her, since it was inside her body and no one will ever witness them…

Yun Long awoke since his nose was being tickled "Mn… seems like we are finished with our cultivation for a few years mother… let's go home" as he got up and held his mothers' hand, before exiting the Icy Springs Realm.
