Ruoshui took out the Jade Abyss Lotus Pod, and then took out over ten Law Essence Souls. She used a secret method to embed these Law Essence Souls into the Jade Abyss Lotus Pod. Once the Law Essence Souls were embedded, it was as if it had lotus seeds, becoming a complete Jade Abyss Lotus Pod.
After finishing this, Ruoshui took out the Ruoshui Essence unique to her clan, dripping it drop by drop into the lotus pod. As the Ruoshui Essence seeped into it, the lotus pod instantly sparkled with a crystal clear light. Carrying a moist sheen, it was like a lotus pod after the rain, surging with vitality.
After completing these steps, Ruoshui took Ye Chu deep into the Fiend Mountain, sitting cross legged there. Laws covered her entire body, preventing the fiendish qi from infecting it.
At the same time, her arms danced. The trees bred by the fiendish fire piled up into a mountain, instantly burning with terrifying flames. These flames were all fiendish fire, extremely terrifying, carrying the unique aura of fiendish qi, enough to make cultivators feel chilled to the bone.
Seeing this, Ruoshui’s arms danced. The lotus pod shot directly onto the pile of trees, allowing the fiendish fire to burn it. Streams of complex hand seals were continuously struck out from her hands. After these hand seals were struck out, the lotus pod spun endlessly over the flames.
Ye Chu stayed by Ruoshui’s side, guarding her. He used his own body to flash around, helping Ruoshui absorb streams of fiendish fire and reducing her pressure.
Ruoshui was obviously very proficient in the secret methods of the Floating Life Palace. As her fingers moved, patterns flowed endlessly, continuously seeping into the Floating Life Palace. As the secret method seeped in, the lotus pod and the Law Essence Souls continuously merged together, absorbing the Ruoshui Essence, as if the Law Essence Souls were things inside the lotus pod.
Ye Chu and Ruoshui displayed various means there, resisting and forging the lotus pod. Just like that, time passed bit by bit.
The two stayed in this place for three days. Three days was not a long time, but they encountered countless dangers within it. Ruoshui was extremely troubled by the fiendish qi, while Ye Chu was even more troubled by the artistic conception bred within it. Amidst these repeated dangers, the two gritted their teeth and persisted.
“Boom… Boom…”
More and more fiendish qi trees burned, piling together to scorch the lotus pod. Ruoshui persisted until this moment, her smooth and delicate forehead covered in fine sweat. Every drop of sweat sliding down her face was extraordinarily beautiful.
The flames burned tens of thousands of feet high. The fiendish fire was so terrifying, yet Ye Chu was fearless. But watching Ruoshui, he could not help but worry. Ruoshui was strong, but under such fiendish fire, it was hard for her to bear it.
“Do not move, I will block the fiendish qi!” Ye Chu said to Ruoshui. He used himself to draw the fiendish qi, blocking streams of fiendish qi charging towards Ruoshui.
Ruoshui glanced at Ye Chu. Ignoring the weakness in her body, she said to him, “Only the final step remains. The lotus pod is about to be forged successfully.”
“Hm?” Just as Ye Chu was puzzled, Ruoshui’s figure suddenly leapt. Her speed was as fast as lightning. All the laws in her body surged out violently. Each law transformed into a barrier between heaven and earth, charging towards the fiendish fire. Her delicate body danced, swaying her waist, her posture graceful, making one’s mind immerse in it.
Every dance carried laws. The dao and methods within them surged out violently. The heaven and earth primordial qi charged endlessly. The artistic conception danced and transformed into three thousand weak waters. Three thousand thin streams surged towards the lotus pod from all directions.
“Three thousand weak waters, merge into one!”
Ruoshui roared. Various powers surged out. Between the vibrations of streams of power, laws bound the lotus pod. Thin streams seeped into it. The artistic conception and patterns charged into the lotus pod together with the fiendish fire.
While charging into the lotus pod, the fiendish fire also surged towards Ruoshui. Ruoshui gritted her teeth. Various laws surged towards it, vainly trying to block it.
But the fiendish fire was so terrifying. In an instant, it corroded the laws. Several streams of fiendish fire struck Ruoshui’s body, and she spurted out a mouthful of blood.
At the same time as spitting out the blood, Ruoshui gritted her teeth, driving the heaven and earth primordial qi to the extreme, “Refine the body with fiendish qi, break the bottleneck!”
Ruoshui roared. Ignoring the fiendish qi charging into her body, she actually drew the fiendish qi into her body, stimulating and baptising her body. Ye Chu had originally wanted to help Ruoshui resist the fiendish qi, but seeing this scene, he paused slightly, took a deep breath, clenched his fists tightly, and watched Ruoshui.
This was another purpose of Ruoshui. She had always been unable to break through. At this moment, she needed to rely on the fiendish qi. Ordinary fiendish qi would not work; only those dangerous fiendish qi would be useful. The fiendish qi this time was just right. She had decided long ago that while helping Ye Chu forge the Ruoshui Floating Life Lotus, she would simultaneously use the fiendish qi to temper herself and break through the bottleneck. Killing two birds with one stone.
Ruoshui gritted her teeth and persisted. After all, she was not Ye Chu. It was extremely difficult for her body to endure the fiendish qi. The fiendish qi was wearing away her vitality. Streams of violent and filthy qi charged towards her primordial spirit and everywhere else, seeping into every part of her.
This was the terror of fiendish qi. It could instantly wear away and corrode cultivators within it.
Ruoshui was after all extraordinary, using laws to wear away these auras. But the fiendish qi here was too terrifying, and she could not wear it all away. But because of the ravaging impact of the fiendish qi, her body underwent a transformation instead. The bottleneck that had not been broken through for a long time cracked open a slit at this moment.
Seeing this, Ruoshui was overjoyed. As long as there was a slight crack, with time, breaking through would not be a problem.
Ruoshui looked at the lotus pod forged until it was crystal clear and dripping. She had no intention of continuing to fight the fiendish fire. She waved her arm, put away the lotus pod, leapt, and shot towards the outside.
The fiendish fire chased after her. The fiendish fire that had been charging into the lotus pod all shifted towards her. She resisted hastily. Despite dancing out terrifying laws, it was still difficult to block everything. She was still struck by a stream of fiendish qi on her body, seeping into her. She immediately spurted out a mouthful of blood, and her entire body flew backwards.
Seeing this, Ye Chu’s expression changed drastically. His figure shot forward quickly. He reached out and hugged Ruoshui tightly. Her soft and delicate body fell into his arms. Holding Ruoshui, he frantically shot towards the outside to escape.
While escaping, Ye Chu’s hand landed on Ruoshui’s flat lower abdomen. He drew the fiendish qi in her body bit by bit into his own body, preventing those fiendish qi from ravaging inside Ruoshui’s body.
Even so, Ruoshui still continuously spat blood from her mouth, staining Ye Chu’s clothes red.
Ye Chu ignored everything, flashing forward quickly and charging out. He even ignored the storm of artistic conception charging towards him. It struck his body, shocking him until he spurted blood wildly.
Under Ye Chu’s life disregarding flashes, he finally leapt out of it. Landing outside, Ye Chu looked at the extremely pale Ruoshui. He could not care about so much anymore. He sat cross legged, placed both hands on Ruoshui’s back, exerted his power, and drew all the streams of fiendish qi into himself, frantically using his acupoints to convert the fiendish qi.
But this fiendish qi was only residual fiendish qi, not complete. For Ye Chu, who had already endured the Teng Snake Fiendish Qi, such fiendish qi could hardly play a big role. Of course, there was still some effect. It elevated Ye Chu from the initial stage of the first level of the Xuanhua Realm to the peak of the first level, which could be considered a big progress!
