The violent electric current surged into Tan Xiu's body, wreaking havoc in every muscle, every bone, and every organ of his body. The pain made Tan Xiu feel as if he had returned to the state he was in when he was undergoing the tribulation.
The power of thunder and lightning was terrifying.
How many powerful cultivators had been destroyed by it and how many immortals with extremely high cultivation levels had been killed by it? The power of nature, the energy of the universe, and thunder and lightning were definitely among the best of the destructive elements.
Forty thousand volts of electric current in its strongest state caused Tan Xiu's body to tremble slightly, but he could feel that this was not his limit. It could not stimulate his potential, and it did not even have much effect on increasing the strength of his body.
"Increase, twenty thousand!"
Tan Xiu spat out these four words.
The expression on Chu Yuan's handsome face turned extremely marvelous. If an ordinary person were to be electrocuted by 40,000 volts of the strongest current, they would die in an instant. However, Tang Xiu's body only trembled a bit, as though it didn't hurt him at all.
This...
Even if this guy was a cultivator, there was no need for him to be so terrifying, right?
Chu Yuan believed that he had seen countless unimaginable things in his life, but the situation in front of him was more outrageous than any he had encountered before. What he found most difficult to accept was that this guy actually claimed to be using electric current to... take a bath.
The highest current of sixty thousand volts finally caused Tan Xiu's face to turn slightly pale, and some beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. But as soon as the beads of sweat appeared, they were evaporated by the high-voltage electricity. His hair stood up one by one, and his skin was faintly flushed.
Pain.
A heart-wrenching pain.
But Tan Xiu forcefully endured the pain, and his heart was filled with intense surprise. This was because he found that his body was being tempered by the electric current. His muscles were injured by the electric current, but as Chaotic Force flowed through them, the injuries were rapidly recovering. His bones were constantly being tempered by the electric current, and they were becoming increasingly tough.
What surprised him the most was that his internal organs were being stimulated. Under the stimulation of the electric current, his internal organs were operating nearly twice as fast as usual. But after being injured again and again, they were being nourished and repaired by the Chaotic Force again and again. He could even clearly feel that his internal organs were being tempered more and more.
"Awu, 100,000."
Tan Xiu's eyes were slightly red, and his hands that were holding the wires were trembling slightly, but he still gave the order resolutely.
"You … you lunatic."
Chu Yuan's body trembled as he staggered back a few steps, his back directly pressed against the wall. The way he looked at Tang Xiu was as though he was looking at a dead man.
"Sizzle …"
Tan Xiu's only underwear was ignited by the powerful electric current and burned to ashes. But whether it was the electric current or the burning trousers, neither caused much damage to Tan Xiu.
It stung.
This made Tan Xiu feel both pain and happiness.
His nerves seemed to be cast from fine steel. His blood vessels seemed to be boiling magma. His streamlined muscles were jumping and trembling, but the moment a layer of gray substance appeared on the surface of his body, it was burned solid.
Mo Awu stood next to the power generator. His eyes were filled with fanaticism. He could clearly feel the high temperature in his boss's body. Seeing with his own eyes the boss's endurance, a strong desire arose in his heart … to become stronger. He also wanted to become stronger, to become incomparably powerful. In the future, even if he had to bathe in electric current or lightning, he would be able to do it easily.
Chu Yuan, who was leaning against the wall, gasped for breath. He felt that his heartbeat was rapidly increasing and his legs were sore as if all his strength had been sucked away.
It was too terrifying!
Was he still a human?
Chu Yuan wanted to turn around and flee. He didn't want to stay with such a lunatic who didn't care about his life. He didn't want to be in the same room with such a terrifying monster. However, he couldn't take a step because he wanted to see the whole process of Tan Xiu's "bath". He wanted to see the final outcome of this monster.
Time passed by bit by bit and 20 minutes passed in a blink of an eye. When Tang Xiu suddenly threw away the two thick wires, he burst into wild laughter and said, "Awesome! That's so damn awesome!"
Mo Awu strode forward and hurriedly asked, "How's the effect, Boss?"
Tan Xiu turned his hand and took out a set of clothes from his interspatial ring. After quickly putting them on, he said with satisfaction, "Not bad. Very good. I can feel my physical strength increasing. Awu, order our men to buy at least 100 of these power generators for our daily training. "
"I'll contact the Little Boss later," said Mo Awu happily.
Tan Xiu nodded and looked at Chu Yuan, who was leaning against the wall. He found that his face was pale and his eyes were full of disbelief. Tan Xiu lightly smiled and said, "Mr. Chu, I just took a bath naked in front of you. It's really not elegant. But the taste is really good. Do you want to try it? "
Chu Yuan gulped and desperately shook his head. "You're a lunatic. Only a lunatic would do such a thing. I won't try it even if you beat me to death."
A lunatic?
Tan Xiu couldn't help laughing and said, "Then forget it since you don't want to try it. It's just a pity. Bathing with electric current is very enjoyable. "
Chu Yuan took a deep breath and quickly adjusted his mood. Then, he slowly said, "You're not taking a bath at all. You should be using electric current to refine your body."
"Alright, I won't tease you anymore." Tan Xiu laughed. "I'm indeed using electric current to refine my body. It's a pity that my strength is too poor and I can't use too strong electric current, else I'd really be electrocuted to death. However, sooner or later, the world's largest power station will become my bathhouse. Even if lightning strikes from the sky, it will be able to give me a back rub. Hahaha … "
People were in high spirits when encountering happy events, so Tan Xiu's attitude toward Chu Yuan turned better.
Listening to Tan Xiu's words, Chu Yuan was rendered speechless by this lunatic. However, through another aspect, he was also deeply envious. He also wanted to have powerful strength, to use electric current to refine his body, and to rub his back with lightning in the future.
A cultivator!
It was a role he had dreamed of becoming countless times. Unfortunately, the Imperial Garden had been passed down for several centuries, yet they still hadn't obtained any cultivation technique. Although his combat strength was good, he could only deal with some gangsters. He was still half a step away from being a martial arts grandmaster.
'Can I make a deal with Tan Xiu? I don't care how much I have to pay as long as I can get a cultivator's cultivation technique! '
The thought flashed in Chu Yuan's mind and he couldn't restrain himself any longer. His eyes were full of passion as he looked at Tan Xiu and said, "Mr. Tang, what price do I have to pay to become a cultivator? Is … money enough? "
Tan Xiu looked at him with a strange expression and then couldn't help laughing. "Money is a good thing, especially in today's materialistic era. But do you think I'm short of money? "
Chu Yuan's breathing stagnated and he immediately forced a smile. "You're indeed not short of money given your status and ability, Mr. Tang."
This daddy is short of money!
Tan Xiu couldn't help but roll his eyes. He didn't expect that such a shrewd person like Chu Yuan would be so ignorant. He just said those words to increase his bargaining power. He didn't expect that Chu Yuan would actually agree to his words. However, he was also reluctant to sell cultivation techniques. After all, the world's spiritual qi was thin and cultivation resources were scarce. Having more cultivators meant more competitiveness.
He could see that Chu Yuan was a very ambitious person. Although he wasn't afraid of him, he thought that he shouldn't sell the cultivation technique to him for the time being in order to avoid trouble and prevent the cultivation technique from being widely spread.
It was money, after all!
As long as he worked hard to earn it, he would be able to get a huge amount of funds in just a few years. He couldn't afford to create trouble for himself for petty profits.
Tan Xiu waved his hand and smilingly said, "Since you think I'm not short of money, then don't think about the deal. Maybe I can teach you a cultivation technique if I'm interested in it a few years later. But for now? No! "
A disappointed look appeared in Chu Yuan's eyes, but he was unwilling to give up. After pondering for a moment, he secretly decided that no matter what method he had to use, he must get a cultivation technique and become an expert as soon as possible. After all, Tan Xiu wasn't the only person in the world who had a cultivation technique. He believed that he could get it as long as he could afford it.
Knock, knock …
The door was knocked and a middle-aged man entered the room.
"Boss, Miss Ouyang is here."
Tan Xiu stared blankly for a moment before he immediately nodded and said, "Tell her to wait outside for a while. I'll come out later."
A few minutes later.
Tan Xiu came to the living room with Chu Yuan and saw Ouyang Lulu sitting with her legs crossed and eating … a lollipop. A smile appeared on his face as he said, "You're quite well-informed, Lulu! How did you know that I've just returned to Shanghai? "
Ouyang Lulu jumped up from the sofa and glanced at Chu Yuan behind Tan Xiu. She immediately opened her arms to hug Tan Xiu and affectionately said with a smile, "This young lady's magical power is boundless, so I knew that you've come back just by pinching my fingers. I haven't seen you since the winter vacation. Did you miss me? If you dare to say no, I'll make a scene for you. "
Tan Xiu patted her back and smelled her fragrance, saying with a smile, "I missed you, alright?"
Ouyang Lulu was satisfied and released Tan Xiu. She tilted her chin toward Chu Yuan a few times and asked, "Your friend?"
"You can say so!" Tan Xiu said with a smile.
Ouyang Lulu extended her hand to Chu Yuan and coolly said, "Hello, I'm Ouyang Lulu, the owner of Paradise Manor and also Tan Xiu's first wife."
"Imperial Garden, Chu Yuan."
Chu Yuan was amazed by Ouyang Lulu's beauty and was even more shocked by her last sentence. At this moment, he finally understood why Tan Xiu didn't like Xue Yu. Although Ouyang Lulu's appearance, figure, and temperament were not better than Xue Yu's, they were not worse.
Squeezing out a smile, Chu Yuan looked at Tan Xiu and said, "Mr. Tang, I still have something to do, so I'll go first. If you have time later, feel free to visit the Imperial Garden. "
"You haven't seen the gift yet, have you?" Tan Xiu asked with a strange expression.
Chu Yuan coughed dryly and said, "You have a guest here … Miss Ouyang, so I won't stay any longer. That small gift is for you, Mr. Tang. You can slowly appreciate it later. "
