Chapter 687: Divine Blood Side Effects! Ling Shuang

"So much?" Hearing Ling Shuang was stunned.

Others absorb divine blood in tiny sips.

Good grief, you're taking it by the cubic meter from the start.

Even if these are ordinary divine blood, not yet refined into essence blood, isn't this just too extreme?

"A bit of luck."

Xu Jingming chuckled, feeling his body's intense craving for this divine blood!

"Teacher Ling, rest up—I'll start absorbing the divine blood now."

Saying this, Xu Jingming stepped forward and plunged straight into the mass of divine blood!

Crackling—

The instant his body touched the divine blood, thunderous roars erupted densely within the cave.

The entire mass of divine blood boiled as if alive, blue-purple lightning flickered, radiating terrifying energy.

"Come on, come on!"

Brilliant Dou Tian Shen Lei swirled around Xu Jingming as he swallowed vast quantities of divine blood like a whale!

His aura surged violently upward in response!

"Can divine blood really be consumed like this?" Hearing Ling Shuang was utterly stunned.

Xu Jingming isn't even afraid the divine blood will burst his body open!

After carefully observing for five or six minutes and seeing no abnormalities—only stronger blood and qi—

Hearing Ling Shuang finally relaxed, closed her eyes, and focused on restoring her abilities.

Swish, swish~~

Soon, the entire cave fell silent, save for the faint sounds of Xu Jingming absorbing the divine blood.

Undeniably, divine blood was an excellent thing—Xu Jingming could feel his physique strengthening rapidly!

Even the SS-rank body refinement technique, "Divine Thunder Indestructible Body," surged from its eighth level toward the ninth!

"This feeling is incredible!" Xu Jingming unconsciously accelerated his consumption of divine blood.

But he didn't notice that deep within his once clear, black-and-white eyes, a streak of crimson was slowly emerging.

Time passed, and the amount of divine blood absorbed into his body grew ever greater.

His physique grew even more formidable, already launching a full assault on the ninth level of Divine Thunder Indestructible Body!

Yet his eyes had turned blood-red, and at the same time, a flood of negative emotions surged within his heart!

Bloodlust, savagery, lust...

These negative emotions battered his mind.

He seemed entirely controlled by them, his aura growing increasingly dangerous.

"S-rank!"

At that moment, Eva's sharp cry echoed suddenly in his mind, and Xu Jingming regained a sliver of clarity.

"Huh? What just happened to me..."

Xu Jingming snapped back to himself, forcibly suppressing the negative emotions deep within, his face grim.

Thunder Dragon is notoriously savage among beast clans.

Back when he was at Devil's University, Professor Yang Zhentian had once failed to control these negative emotions while forging the foundation of his Indestructible Body.

Later, as his strength increased, negative emotions occasionally surfaced—but he always managed to suppress them.

So this time, absorbing divine blood, he hadn't worried much about possible side effects.

But he'd forgotten: Thunder Dragon King is the king of the Thunder Dragon clan!

His temper is even more volatile.

And Xu Jingming is exceptionally compatible with Thunder Dragon—the compatibility rate when forging the Indestructible Body had reached a staggering 98%!

Now, absorbing this divine blood, the hidden negative emotions within far exceed what he can currently endure.

"This is bad..."

Xu Jingming's heart sank—by now, his body had instinctively begun absorbing divine blood; he couldn't stop even if he wanted to.

"Jingming, what's wrong?"

Hearing Ling Shuang, seated on the grass bed, sensed something amiss, opened her eyes, and looked at him in confusion.

But the moment she did, Xu Jingming nearly lost control.

Usually, Hearing Ling Shuang appeared before him in classical, dignified attire.

But today, Hearing Ling Shuang was different—barefoot, clad in a tight-fitting female combat suit.

Her figure was already fiery; now, wrapped in the suit, it appeared even fuller and more mature.

Paired with her stunning beauty—marked by a tear-shaped mole at the corner of her eye—she looked like a ripe peach, radiating a seductive, mature aura.

Normally, Xu Jingming might feel merely awed, nothing more.

But now, under the divine blood's influence, he felt parched, his blood boiling wildly.

His blood-red eyes locked onto Hearing Ling Shuang, filled with intense longing.

"Jingming... what's this?" Hearing Ling Shuang's heart leapt.

Though she had no experience, faced with such unhidden desire, she understood exactly what Xu Jingming wanted.

"T-Teacher Ling, I'm... not feeling right right now. You should stay away from me."

Xu Jingming replied with difficulty, having regained a sliver of clarity and forcibly suppressed the negative emotions.

"Jingming..."

Hearing Ling Shuang looked at Xu Jingming with a complex expression.

Fierce beasts are inherently brutal and bloodthirsty; absorbing divine blood will affect them as well.

Such negative emotions, if not guided out in time—

Not only might it cause Xu Jingming's absorption of the divine blood to fail, it might even turn him into a killing machine!

A twenty-year-old at the upper tier of the sixth rank, the number one prodigy of Blue Star, yet in the end became a killing machine — no one in all of Great Xia could bear such a thing.

Let alone her, a teacher who had walked this road with Xu Jingming from Magic University to Lei Ting Martial Arts Hall, and then to Dayangzhou.

It was even more impossible for her to just watch Xu Jingming become like that with open eyes.

"Enough. Let me help you."

Sighing, Ling Shuang took a rubber band from her spatial ring and gently held it between her lips.

Then she gathered up the black hair that hung loose down her back.

Taking the rubber band from her lips, she tied that head of hair into a high ponytail.

Right after that, she reached her right hand behind her to the spot at her fair, white neck, then gently pulled the zipper of her battle suit downward.

Her movements were very fast at first, but when the zipper was about to reach her chest—

Ling Shuang's hand still paused for a moment, and on her usually refined, mature, pretty face, a faint blush quietly rose.

"Hoo—"

Her breathing rose and fell slightly, but in the end she made up her mind and pulled it down in one go!

Duang~~~

That astonishing, rounded fullness instantly bounced out lively, exposed to the air, and Xu Jingming's eyes went wide!

Soon, Ling Shuang's battle suit had slipped down to her waist.

Her entire upper body was thus exposed to the air without any reservation.

It had to be said, Ling Shuang's figure was truly excellent — a slender waist one could easily encircle, her curves perfect and flowing.

But at a certain spot above that waist, there was an astonishing fullness; the saying "slender branches bearing rich fruit" could not be more apt to describe Ling Shuang.

Being stared at like that by Xu Jingming, a shy blush inevitably rose on Ling Shuang's pretty face.

A trace of unease and nervousness showed in her eyes, and her slender waist twisted restlessly.

But even so, she still gently bit her red lips and moved toward Xu Jingming, whose eyes were growing ever more crimson.

"I once saw that scene between you and those two little girlfriends — using that method, it should work, right?"

"Teacher Ling, what are you— Hiss..." Xu Jingming instantly lost his words.

PS: Around Spring Festival I should still owe about eight or nine chapters, let's say nine; today's four updates paid off two, so seven remain.

Also, congratulations to Jingming and Ling Shuang — of course, the two of them won't be finishing things that easily~~
