The Corruption Dragon God: Lust System

Chapter 222: 222 - Fire and Ice spirit roots

”Hm...” Qingyi scratched his chin as he thought about the system’s response.

Yes, now that he thought about it, it really was a dumb idea.

”Ah... I shouldn’t be that stupid.” Qingyi slapped his palms against his head a few times before asking. ”Is there any way of creating something similar by uniting fire and ice?”

[The host will know the answer to this question when he reaches the realm of transcendence].

”Oh... Really? Thank you for your great help.” Qingyi spat sarcastically.

He hated that kind of answer, but if the system didn’t want to talk, there was little he could do.

With a sigh, he raised his index finger and a thin sword Qi emerged from the tip of his fingernail, this Qi soon being surrounded by a thunderous aura.

This was the result of uniting sword Qi and lightning Qi.

As they were already Qi of extremely high affinity, the result was not very interesting, just the union of the sharpness of sword Qi and the heat and destructive power of lightning Qi.

Fire and ice, on the other hand, would probably result in something much more interesting.

”Ruxue” He called out ”What do you think about fusing fire and ice spirit roots?”

”Hmm... that would normally result in a considerably painful death, but with the power of your body and your bloodline, there shouldn’t be any problems.” A sweet, mature voice echoed as a voluptuous, sensual figure appeared behind Qingyi.

A huge pair of breasts pressed against his back as she hugged him, her beautiful purple eyes watching him curiously.

”Are you going to do this?” She asked.

After a moment’s thought, Qingyi nodded and prepared himself.

The chances of fire and ice spirit roots merging was much lower than the chances of sword and lightning, which had a much greater affinity.

So he had to be careful.

With a soft grunt, he clicked to buy new spirit roots.

His whole body froze in the next moment, his eyes watered and he let a pained grunt escape his lips.

No matter how many times he did it, he was unable to get used to the pain.

As his meridians were rebuilt to contain the new Qi, the temperature around him dropped rapidly, reaching negative values before exploding, so hot that it seemed capable of melting steel, his body completely engulfed in a sea of flames.

Qingyi was already feeling the formations in the cultivation room begin to suffer damage when he was finally able to open his eyes.

A shockwave spread throughout his body and then everything calmed down.

[Failed to fuse fire and ice spirit roots! roots absorbed as two-colored spiritual roots.]

[Your spirit roots have changed! Lightning sword spirit root -> three-colored spirit root (Lightning sword, fire, ice)]

’A failure...’ Qingyi gritted his teeth, but didn’t think much of it.

It was expected and honestly, it probably wouldn’t damage his plans.

The temperature returned to normal and Qingyi stood up, feeling the new type of Qi in his body. It was a little strange, but not in a bad way.

Extending his right hand, he surrounded it with an intense Qi of fire and, at the same time, extended his left, surrounding it with a powerful Qi of ice.

The cultivation room was immediately divided into two sides, one taken by a scorching Qi and illuminated by a deep orange while the other was taken by a freezing Qi and illuminated by a soft blue, thin layers of ice forming on the walls.

After a moment’s hesitation, Qingyi pointed his left hand forward before making an upward gesture.

In the next moment, a large wall of ice appeared, only to be destroyed by a flaming attack.

The control was good. Most cultivators would need a combat technique to be able to channel their power like that, but Qingyi was already able to do it by himself without difficulty.

’Just one more little thing...’ Qingyi smiled as he pressed his hands against each other, drawing the two Qi’s at the same time and trying to unite them, just as he had done with the sword and lightning Qi.

The resistance was absurd, like two super-powerful magnets trying to repel each other at all costs.

But he didn’t let himself be discouraged, pushing harder and harder, gritting his teeth.

”I know what you want to do, it’s no use, the husband doesn’t know enough about the laws of nature to be capable of something like this.” Ruxue said as she approached Qingyi, shaking her head.

”Laws of nature?” Qingyi stopped what he was doing, turning his face towards the spiritual beauty.

”Yes, you’ll start to understand them as soon as you reach the transcendence realm and they’ll become more and more noticeable until you finally reach the heavenly heavens. For now, don’t waste time thinking about it.”

”I see...” Qingyi sighed.

The transcendence realm... it would still take him a long time to get there.

With a sigh, Qingyi stood up, stretching his body slightly before finally leaving the cultivation room.

”Junior brother Qingyi, you’re back - ugh...” Yedu’s voice suddenly stopped and he almost vomited.

”Uh... has junior brother undergone body reconstruction?” he asked.

”Ah... I’m sorry!” Qingyi noticed his own smell and hurried to his room, taking a long shower and washing away all the impurities that permeated his skin.

Once he was finally clean, he returned to the main hall of the twenty-third squadron’s private pavilion, feeling much more relaxed.

All three other members of the squadron were already there, staring at a map on the floor.

Yedu focused his eyes on Qingyi.

”Congratulations on your body reconstruction, junior brother Qingyi, it’s been a few years since I went through one, hahaha” Yedu laughed, but the laughter soon ceased.

Qingyi’s aura had changed and was much more powerful than before.

Had Qingyi made a breakthrough in his cultivation too?

Only then did Yedu realize. Qingyi was already at the peak of the crystalline core realm...

How was that humanly possible?
