The Heavenly Jewel Change
Chapter 05: The Strange Black Pearl (1)
Star Forest, side of Spring Ice Lake.
Zhou Weiqing's body was lying on the ground in a t-shape, deeply unconscious. At the same time, his body underwent a strange change.
Layers of black light appeared around his body. Although the sunlight was bright in the sky, the darkness emitted from within his body covered him like a cocoon. The flesh of his back that was torn as a result of Difuya's fireball began to recover at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. What was most surprising was that while his flesh was healing, his bones, muscles, his internal organs and even his meridians were filled with layers of dark gray energy.
It was an almost indescribable gray color, giving off an even colder impression than the black cocoons around Zhou Weiqing, yet it was still filled with a strange spirit and life. However, as this gray layer slowly spread from within his body to replace the black layer covering him, there was a strange change in the vegetation around his body. One could clearly see the vegetation was infected by the gray, ranging from Zhou Weiqing's body and spreading within a radius of 5 meters, causing a rapid withering on the vegetation as Zhou Weiqing's body healed faster. There seemed to be an evil influence in the air.
The mixing of dark gray with black light started getting thicker and thicker, and the atmosphere grew colder, domineering, evil and evil, 4 different auras around Zhou Weiqing's body. He began to shudder slightly as 3 rays of light were emitted from within the black cocoon, flickering over his body.3 rays of light were a green color, the color of green, the blue and silver of the black pearls he had swallowed before.
The warm rays of the sun could not enter the surroundings of Zhou Weiqing's body, and on his forehead, the black word "King" slowly appeared. On his skin, a layer of black tattoo is slowly formed, underneath it looks a similar layer of gray tattoo. The 2 layers of tattoo seem to have formed a 3D image, the, and they covered his whole body even to his face.
This phenomenon lasted for almost an hour, until all the colors slowly faded, sinking back into Zhou Weiqing's body, and the tattoos on his body also disappeared as a result.
Zhou Weiqing's healthy bronze skin color seemed much paler than before, and his facial features looked much more handsome now. His back, which had been torn apart by the exploding fireball, was now completely healed, with no visible scars, as if he had never been injured there before.
After a moment more, Zhou Weiqing's fingers twitched, as he slowly regained his senses.
The moment he opened his eyes, he could not help but shiver in the cold. Although he did not know what was happening because he was unconscious, he still felt a chill all over his body after waking up. His heart was cold, and that ice-cold feeling was extremely uncomfortable for him, causing an almost indescribable emotion within him.
"I ... am not dead?" Zhou Weiqing suddenly sat down. He felt his body was much lighter than usual, and he hurriedly raised his hand to touch his back, and upon sensing the entire, delicate skin, he could not help but widen his eyes in shock.
"Is it all just a dream?" Zhou Weiqing looked around him, and then saw the remains of his tattered clothes, as well as the withered circles of dead plants around him. It wasn't a dream anyway.
Giving himself a facepalm, Zhou Weiqing's memories slowly returned as clarity returned to his mind.
Because Zhou Weiqing was born with clogged meridians, even though he was a noble, but he only attended an ordinary school that did not give explicit lessons about the power of the Jewel Masters, he said, he made such a mistake of judgment. If the first skill on the Elemental Jewel Difuya was as strong as he had imagined, he would not simply be an ordinary genius. Moreover, to be able to deal such damage, the fireball would smash it to pieces.
"What the fuck is that black pearl?" Although his assessment was fully accurate, but one thing was certain Zhou Weiqing – knew he had been seriously injured by the fireball, and it was the black pearl that had healed him.
Is my moral character that good? Did the miracle of karma just happen to me? Zhou Weiqing became even more excited as he thought. Although he had a fairly optimistic character that could dispel the misfortune of his birth, but was born into a prestigious family, he naturally had a strong desire to be strong.
As he twisted his neck looking around, he instantly locked onto the huge Star Tree beside him as a test target.
The reason for the name Star Trees is because their leaves are angular pentagons, like stars. 100-year-old Star Tree is considered to be growing up, and its wood is very strong and tough, but it does not lack the flexibility of – which is why it is famous as one of the best materials for making bows.
Zhou Weiqing moved towards the selected Star Tree, and waving his fists, he slammed his fists against the thick tree trunk with all his might.
"PENGS!" "Ohhhhhh!" The first sound was naturally the sound of his fist hitting a tree, and the last was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, an almost inhuman screech.
Zhou Weiqing had been afraid of pain ever since he was young, the thick Star Tree stood motionless, yet he jumped up and down holding his right hand. The intense pain in his right fist left him almost numb, and the skin on the surface of the fist was badly scratched, causing a sharp pain, the sheer pain caused him to jump around for almost 10 minutes before getting a little better.
"F*ck!" The young man cursed as he blew his fist. "Cursed, it seems like the pie that fell from heaven* isn't something that will happen to me."
* TL: Suddenly windfall
Fortunately, he was young, and the strength of his fist was not that big, so he did not harm his fist bones. After the pain subsided, he put on the remains of his clothes, and his outer robe from the side of the lake, before leaving the crestfallen.
Unknown to him, about 15 minutes after he left the scene, at the Star Tree he struck with his fist, where some of his blood was left behind after his skin was eroded. The hard bark of the surrounding Star Star Tree began to decay, and a thin layer of gray air seemed to disappear into the air. 3 days later, this 50-year-old Tree Star disappeared completely from the forest. Of course, this would never be known to Zhou Weiqing.
