"What's the exact difference?" Chen Zhao asked.
"If you use extreme heat as your state, you'll be training your body with fire. You'll be invulnerable. Your body will be like iron and your heart will be like the sun," Old Turtle said. "If you use extreme cold as your state, your heart will be like a blade and your mind will be like a sword. No inner demons will be born. Your energy will be like a rainbow and your power will be like frost."
"To be more direct, I don't understand."
"Extreme heat is training your body. Extreme cold is training your heart."
"Do you think body training is awesome?" Chen Zhao said. "At least you can feel the changes in your body with body training, but who knows if there will be any changes with heart training."
"Extreme cold training can prevent inner demons from growing," Old Turtle said. "In the long run, extreme cold is more advantageous."
"That means extreme cold is better?"
"You can't say that. If you don't have inner demons, you can't improve your state of mind."
"F * ck, is extreme heat better or extreme cold better?"
"Either is fine …"
"Can I train in both ice and fire?" Chen Zhao asked.
"Daoism walks on the balance of yin and yang, but in most cases, no one can succeed."
"Okay, since others can't, I won't go either."
"…" Old Turtle looked at Chen Zhao speechlessly. When he heard the first half, he thought Chen Zhao would say that he wanted someone else to follow Bu Yong. In the end, Chen Zhao admitted defeat. "Actually, it's not completely impossible."
"How?"
"First is the time limit. A thousand years ago in the human world, the River Diagram was collected by a Daoist. I watched him cultivate step by step, but when he reached Ultimate, he was already a hundred years old. His spiritual power was the best in the world, but his body was almost withered. He couldn't handle the ice and fire dual training at all. He also couldn't achieve yin and yang balance before his death."
Old Turtle looked at Chen Zhao. "You're different. You're young and your body is stronger than others. You also have the River Diagram. Time isn't a limit for you, so you have a better chance of surviving the yin and yang baptism."
"Are there risks?" Chen Zhao asked.
"There are risks, but the benefits definitely outweigh the risks."
Chen Zhao thought about it. "How long?"
"Depends on what package you want."
"…" Chen Zhao rolled his eyes. "What combo do you offer?"
"I'll create an extremely hot or extremely cold environment for you," Old Turtle said. "It'll take around a hundred years."
"A hundred years in the River Diagram? Did that mean a month had passed in the outside world? No, if I disappear for a month, Fali will go crazy. "
"Then I'll use the Heavenly Fire and Mystic Ice to help you transform."
"How long will this take?"
"Estimated ten years."
"Can we stop halfway?"
"Sure."
"Then use this," Chen Zhao said. "How do I do it?"
"I'll first create a barrier of Heavenly Fire and Mysterious Ice."
Old Turtle's Fali was countless times stronger than Chen Zhao's.
The vicissitudes of life could only be in his thoughts.
First, huge pillars of Mystical Ice fell from the sky. These pillars of Mystical Ice were of different sizes and lengths.
They formed a semicircle within a radius of several thousand zhang.
Following that, the ground began to burn with raging flames, connecting with the thousand-zhang-long Profound Ice Barrier.
Ice and fire formed a ring. Half of it was ice, and the other half was flames.
If one looked down from above, it looked like a Taiji diagram.
As soon as Chen Zhao approached the flames, he felt a wave of heat.
Chen Zhao wanted to change directions. When he approached the ice, he felt a bone-piercing chill again.
"What do I do? If I go in, I'll be frozen into ice or barbecued. "
"Use your Spiritual Power to protect your body first. Then go in from the direction of the Mystic Ice. After half a circle, you'll enter the other half of the Heavenly Fire. Run as fast as you can."
Chen Zhao glanced at Old Turtle. "Are you sure this will work?"
"This is just the outermost layer of cold and heat. The closer you get to the core of the circle, the stronger the cold and heat. If you can't even handle this bit of temperature difference, you should change to a normal extremely hot and cold environment."
Chen Zhao glanced at the entrance and then at Old Turtle.
"So I'll be done after running one circle?"
"Ha … In the next ten years, you have to keep running. When you completely transform your Spiritual Power, you'll be considered to have completed Ultimate Transformation."
Chen Zhao activated all the Spiritual Power in his body and started covering his skin.
When he approached the Mystic Ice Field again, it wasn't as unbearable as before.
Suddenly, Old Turtle pushed Chen Zhao from behind.
Chen Zhao didn't have time to prepare at all. He fell into the Mystic Ice Field.
Just then, the entrance to the Mystic Ice Field closed.
"Run if you don't want to freeze to death."
When he entered, the bone-piercing chill attacked him again.
"Old Turtle, f * ck you!" Chen Zhao started running.
Chen Zhao ran as fast as he could. He didn't know how fast he could run. He had to leave the Mystic Ice Field as soon as possible.
Chen Zhao only took a minute and a half to cover the distance of three kilometers.
Just then, a wave of heat surged from the place where the Mystic Ice Field connected.
Chen Zhao didn't have time to think. He dove into the Heavenly Fire Field.
For a moment, Chen Zhao felt warm from the Heavenly Fire Field. The coldness was gone.
But the next moment, he couldn't take the scorching heat anymore.
The human body reacted more to heat than cold. Chen Zhao felt like his hair was about to ignite.
Chen Zhao sped up and passed through the burning Heavenly Fire Field.
Another wave of coldness attacked him. Where's the exit?
Where's the exit that was supposed to connect here?
"Old Turtle, you old * sshole, you blocked the exit?"
"You want to slack off after just one round?"
Old Turtle's voice came from outside. Chen Zhao ran while yelling.
He charged into the Mystic Ice Field again and ran another round.
He passed through the Heavenly Fire Field and then the Mystic Ice Field …
The cycle repeated again and again.
Chen Zhao could endure it physically, but he couldn't keep up with the consumption of Spiritual Power.
Without the protection of Spiritual Power, Chen Zhao would have to face the Mystic Ice and Heavenly Fire directly.
Finally, on the eighth round, Chen Zhao's Spiritual Power was completely used up.
He hadn't finished the eighth round yet. Chen Zhao could only brace himself and sprint forward.
He finally saw the exit …
Chen Zhao rushed out of the exit and collapsed on the ground. His body was covered in frostbite and burns.
"Why do I have to torture myself …" Chen Zhao wanted to cry but had no tears.
"It's okay. You'll get used to it slowly. Rest for a day and then continue."
"Old Turtle, why do I feel like you're so passionate about me?"
"Because I'm bored."
Chen Zhao suspected that Old Turtle had thought of this method just to torture him.
Chen Zhao's recovery speed was quite good. He recovered the next day.
