Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 406: Five Infants
Above the Hengyang sea of fire, Gu Xiaoxing sat cross-legged in the air, his entire body wrapped in a scarlet flame, appearing to be in pain.
The scarlet flame was definitely not an ordinary fire, and Gu Xiaoxing did not use his cultivation to resist it. He just let the flame burn his body.
If you feel carefully, you can find that Gu Xiaoxing's body is getting stronger and stronger under the burning of this scarlet flame!
This fire is the Suzaku True Flame contained in the Suzaku True Essence, and it is not evolved from the immortal ancient treasure like the Suzaku Saint.
This is the real Suzaku True Flame.
The Suzaku True Flame is the most precious body-tempering divine flame in the world!
In fact, Gu Xiaoxing didn't know this at first.
This was gradually discovered after his body was constantly burned due to his inability to absorb the Suzaku True Essence and the Suzaku True Flame contained therein while absorbing the Suzaku True Essence.
At the beginning, while Gu Xiaoxing was absorbing the Suzaku's true essence, he also distracted himself with his cultivation to resist the burning of the Suzaku's true flame.
But when he discovered this, he simply withdrew his cultivation bit by bit, allowed his body to gradually adapt, and finally let the true flame burn it.
Although it is painful, I am also happy.
In fact, in this way, Gu Xiaoxing can focus more on absorbing the Suzaku's true essence and quickly improve his cultivation.
Two days later, he had actually crossed that hurdle, and entered the realm of great perfection from the late Nascent Soul stage!
I saw that inside Gu Xiaoxing 's body, in the Qingyan Palace in the middle dantian, under the control of the Suzaku soul, the bright red beads continuously erupted with the majestic and extremely pure Suzaku true energy.
It was as if there was a surging river in the Qingyan Palace, with endless water gushing out from it and flowing into every vein and every part of flesh and blood in Gu Xiaoxing's body.
In fact, because the Vermillion Bird's true essence was too pure, and coupled with the control of the Vermillion Bird's soul, Gu Xiaoxing did not even need to go through the soul-devouring magic to refine it, and could directly absorb it and use it for himself.
However, most of it was absorbed by Gu Xiaoxing, but a small part was unable to be absorbed by him. It turned into an extremely rich Suzaku True Flame and accumulated in his body!
On the one hand, every bit of flesh and blood in Gu Xiaoxing's body was absorbing the true essence of Suzaku, as if he were alive.
But at the same time, every bit of flesh and blood was being burned by the Suzaku True Flame, as if it were death.
At this moment between life and death, as more and more Suzaku true essence was absorbed, and as the Suzaku true flame accumulated in the body became thicker and thicker.
Gu Xiaoxing's physical body was climbing at an indescribable terrifying speed, becoming stronger and stronger.
It seems that every time the flesh and blood is "burned to death", it is accompanied by "rebirth", forming a transformation.
This transformation is repeated layer by layer, again and again, constantly surpassing the limits!
This scene is extremely weird!
But this is also the true meaning of refining the body through fire and water!
The changes that Gu Xiaoxing has undergone at this moment are far more than just his physical body.
His cultivation, his soul, and even his life level are undergoing tremendous changes!
The Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul is the pinnacle that most Nascent Soul cultivators can achieve.
But after reaching this level, Gu Xiaoxing did not stop, but continued to move forward, wanting to rush to the sky from the peak.
This sky is the end and the real limit!
However, Gu Xiaoxing's cultivation level is far beyond that of ordinary cultivators, and it is not easy to reach this limit.
As more and more true essence was absorbed by Gu Xiaoxing, the Suzaku True Essence Pearl in his body became noticeably smaller.
But it still contains extremely huge energy, which enables Gu Xiaoxing to continue rushing towards the limit of the sky!
Under this continuous impact, there was originally one infant and eight golden pills in Gu Xiaoxing's lower dantian. However, after absorbing the golden dragon infant, light spots were born in two of the golden pills.
At this moment, these two spots of light are also undergoing strange changes.
Gu Xiaoxing's guess was correct . The light spots that appeared in the golden elixir were the seeds of forming a baby. Now, under the irrigation of Suzaku's true essence, they were slowly sprouting and growing vigorously.
Gradually, the light spots covered the entire golden elixir, as if it had turned into a light cocoon. When the light cocoon dissipated, what appeared was a round... Nascent Soul like a red jade!
Belonging to Gu Xiaoxing...the fourth Yuanying!
The moment the Nascent Soul appeared, Gu Xiaoxing's entire body, even his soul, seemed to suddenly condense, and the world became clearer under his mind.
It was because this feeling was so clear that Gu Xiaoxing felt a sense of shackles!
The shackles of life!
Moreover, this layer of shackles is extremely fragile, as if it can be broken with just a slight touch.
Until another golden elixir light cocoon dissipated, and when the fifth Yuanying appeared, finally, that layer of life shackles... broke open with a bang!
From gods to ancient spirits!
In an instant, Gu Xiaoxing underwent a strange transformation. Different from when he performed the Underworld God Technique, this was true sublimation and transformation.
That feeling was just like when he transformed from a mortal into a monk and broke free from the quagmire.
However, in comparison, the feeling at this moment was countless times stronger, making him feel happy all over.
Under normal circumstances, at this point, Gu Xiaoxing's breakthrough should have come to an end.
This is because the energy a person can absorb always has a limit, and it will always reach saturation.
Even though Gu Xiaoxing's situation was special and his cultivation was profound, it was precisely because of this that he needed more cultivation to break through from the late Nascent Soul stage to the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul.
Today, Gu Xiaoxing has reached the pinnacle of Nascent Soul Great Perfection. If he moves forward a little more, he will reach the limit.
But at this moment, Gu Xiaoxing has reached saturation and reached his degree.
If you continue to hold on, there will be only two results: either it overflows, or the container bursts, which is not worth the loss.
But looking at the enormous power still contained in the Suzaku Zhenyuan Pearl in his body, he was unwilling to give up Gu Xiaoxing just like that.
Suddenly, an idea came to his mind.
"Since the dragon energy can condense the Nascent Soul, this Vermillion Bird Essence may also be able to do so!"
Of course, he didn't really want to condense his Nascent Soul; that path wasn't suitable for him.
The path he chose was the same as the last time when the dragon energy turned into light spots. He treated the golden elixir as land, condensed the Vermillion Bird's true essence into light spots, and planted them as seeds in the golden elixir!
When the time is ripe, they will be transformed into infants one by one!
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaoxing's eyes lit up, and he immediately took action, joining forces with the diligent Suzaku spirit, controlling the Suzaku true essence to flow towards the lower dantian, gathering into the golden elixir bit by bit.
In the lower dantian now, three of the nine golden pills have turned into infants, while the remaining six golden pills are motionless.
But with the integration of Suzaku's true essence, when that little light lit up, Gu Xiaoxing's heart immediately surged!
It works!
Moreover, with the appearance of this light spot in the golden elixir, Gu Xiaoxing clearly felt that his life level seemed to have been elevated to a higher level.
The upper limit of potential also rises accordingly, and the originally saturated body seems to have some more space again!
This discovery made Gu Xiaoxing even more excited, and he continued to draw the Suzaku True Essence into the second golden elixir...
