Beautiful.
He had to admit that Chi Guyan was indeed beautiful. Her facial features were so exquisite that it was suffocating. She had an innate beauty and a noble aura that looked down on the world.
But now, such a beautiful woman was enduring the scorching flames for his sake. Her entire body was drenched in sweat and her brows were tightly furrowed.
He could tell that Chi Guyan was in pain.
However, such pain did not make Chi Guyan release the heat from her body. Instead, her body trembled as she endured the pain.
That kind of determination and endurance was terrifyingly powerful.
Fang Zhengzhi knew that Chi Guyan wanted to give him time to rest and recover. That was why she let the heat linger in her body for a longer time.
But, as a man.
Sometimes, he had to be more responsible.
There was an ancient saying: When Heaven is about to bestow a great responsibility on a man, he must first torture his will, tire his muscles and bones, starve his skin, empty his body, and mess up his actions. Therefore, he had to be patient and do what he could not do.
"Isn't it just a few more times?" Fang Zhengzhi tightened his grip on Chi Guyan's waist and hugged her even tighter.
Then, he started to take more from Chi Guyan.
This action undoubtedly caused a wisp of faint surprise to appear on Chi Guyan's face. But very quickly, this wisp of surprise vanished without a trace, and it was replaced by a wisp of gentleness that was like melting ice.
Then, Chi Guyan tightened her grip on Fang Zhengzhi.
"Boom!" The heat surged into Fang Zhengzhi's body again. He wanted to clench his teeth and die immediately.
Indeed …
It was not easy to be a man.
Fang Zhengzhi did not know how many more times he could endure. The third impact had made him lose consciousness and his body felt extremely heavy.
Was he going to fail after all?
Spots of star-like light seeped into his body from Chi Guyan's fingers. It was slightly cold, but it was almost negligible in the face of the intense heat.
The world in front of him started to dim …
His consciousness started to blur.
His grip on Chi Guyan started to loosen. It was not that he did not want to endure, but the third pain was too intense. It was more intense than he had imagined.
At this moment, a suction force came from Chi Guyan's body and sucked the scorching heat in Fang Zhengzhi's body towards her again.
At this moment, Fang Zhengzhi felt Chi Guyan tremble violently in his arms. Her skin was as red as a burning flame.
"Oh no, Senior Chi Guyan can't hold on any longer!"
"If this goes on, I'm afraid she will die with that guy!"
"No, I can't let that happen."
The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples quickly realized this. They were all extremely anxious.
Mu Qingfeng also noticed the changes in Chi Guyan's body. He clenched his fists subconsciously when he saw her painful expression and the boiling hot aura coming from her body.
He wanted to help Chi Guyan, but he knew that Tian Xing and Wan Lei and Wan would not give him that.
What?
Even Mu Qingfeng was at his wit's end now.
"Pavilion Leader Mu, I have to say that Chi Guyan's idea is not bad. Using this guy's body as a cauldron to refine the Thousand Years Fire Herb into a pill. However, how can a human's body compare to a cauldron? Furthermore, isn't Chi Guyan's technique a little rusty?" At this moment, a voice rang out.
It was Wan Lei from the Yin Yang Hall.
Mu Qingfeng did not say anything, but his brows furrowed even tighter.
Although Wan Lei's words were harsh, they were the truth. A human's body and mind had their limits. Once they exceeded their limits, they would explode and die.
"Leader Tian's goal is to get the Thousand Years Fire Herb. However, given the current situation, if Chi Guyan continues like this, failure is almost certain. Once she fails, the Thousand Years Fire Herb's medicinal power will dissipate, and the loss will outweigh the gain!" Wan Lei saw that Mu Qingfeng did not speak. He turned to look at Tian Xing, and a faint light flashed in his eyes.
"Then what do you want?" Tian Xing looked at Wan Lei's gaze and narrowed his eyes.
"I have an idea. I wonder if Pavilion Leader Mu and Leader Tian would like to hear it?" Wan Lei's lips curled into a smile.
"Speak your mind!" Tian Xing said directly.
"Based on Chi Guyan's strength alone, to refine the Thousand Years Fire Herb into an absorbable elixir in this kid's body, it would take at least seven to eight days, and at most tens of days. Even to complete the embryonic form of the elixir, I'm afraid it would take at least ten to twelve hours. I wonder if Pavilion Master Mu and Leader Tian think that I'm right?" Wan Lei said confidently.
"Continue." Tian Xing said.
The Five Sects of the Holy Region each had their own strengths. The Heaven Dao Pavilion focused on nature, and focused on the sword. Yin Yang Hall, on the other hand, respected the Yin and Yang of Heaven and Earth, and was the best at refining pills.
As the First Disciple of Yin Yang Hall, Wan Lei naturally had his own reasons for saying such words.
"The simplest way is for the few of us to help Chi Guyan first and cultivate the Thousand Years Fire Herb into the embryonic form of an elixir. Then, we can extract the elixir from this kid's body. What do you think, Chief Tian and Lord Mu?" Wan Lei looked at Mu Qingfeng when he finished speaking.
"Refine it into the embryonic form of the pill?" Tian Xing's eyes narrowed again, as if thinking about something.
"This is the only way I can think of to save Chi Guyan and retrieve the Thousand Years Fire Herb!" Wan Lei saw Tian Xing's hesitation, and added.
"Alright, we'll do as you say. Old man Mu, you're protecting Chi Guyan, and I have no intention of harming her life. My goal is only to retrieve the Thousand Years Fire Herb. This is good for both of us!" When Tian Xing heard this, he gritted his teeth and said.
"Pavilion Leader, you can't!" Before Mu Qingfeng could speak, Emperor Lin Mubai had already shouted, "If you forcefully extract the pill from his body, Fang Zhengzhi will definitely die!"
"Oh? Fang Zhengzhi? Is he very powerful? " When Wan Lei heard Emperor Lin Mubai's words, his lips curled into a cold smile. "From his clothes, I don't think he's from the Heaven Dao Pavilion, right?"
"Old man Mu, I, Tian Xing, have already taken a step back today. Are you really going to make an enemy out of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain for an outsider who hasn't even entered the Heaven Dao Pavilion?" Tian Xing's gaze turned cold.
"Kacha!" Mu Qingfeng clenched his fist. He did not speak.
However, his gaze was fixed on Chi Guyan's body. He looked at Chi Guyan's pained expression, as well as her skin that looked like it was on fire.
Silence.
This was not a difficult decision to make.
Just as Wan Lei and Tian Xing had said, Fang Zhengzhi was still an outsider who hadn't entered the Heaven Dao Pavilion. Under normal circumstances, why would he make an enemy out of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain for an outsider?
Moreover, the current situation was so urgent.
From Chi Guyan's expression, it was impossible for her to leave Fang Zhengzhi alone. If she did so, she might even lose her life.
"Master!"
"Master, please save Senior Sister!"
"Senior Sister Chi Guyan, she really can't hold on any longer."
When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples saw Mu Qingfeng's silence, their expressions became more and more anxious.
Mu Qingfeng still did not speak. His fists were clenched tightly, but he slowly moved to the side, creating a path for them to pass through.
When Tian Xing saw this, he did not hesitate any longer. He immediately went in front of Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan. He looked at Fang Zhengzhi with a cold smile.
"Rascal, don't blame me. Blame yourself for eating something you shouldn't have!" When Tian Xing finished speaking, he slammed his palm on Fang Zhengzhi's chest.
A huge wave of energy surged into Fang Zhengzhi's body.
Although he knew that Mu Qingfeng had agreed, he still had to cripple Fang Zhengzhi and shatter his pocket dimension just in case.
This was not because he was afraid that Fang Zhengzhi would run away after refining the pill.
Instead, he wanted Fang Zhengzhi to become a cripple. Only when Fang Zhengzhi was crippled could Mu Qingfeng not go back on his words. After all, Mu Qingfeng would never make an enemy out of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain for a cripple.
"F * ck your mother!" Fang Zhengzhi wanted to scold her, but his mouth was blocked by Chi Guyan, and he could not say anything.
However, he did not expect Tian Xing to make things worse for him. He had to admit that the people in the Sanctuary were more ruthless than he had imagined.
At this moment, Wan Lei appeared behind Fang Zhengzhi.
He slammed his palm down …
However, this palm hit Fang Zhengzhi's waist. At the same time, a strong wave of energy surged towards his abdomen.
At this moment, Fang Zhengzhi felt that the Thousand Years Fire Herb, which was still emitting a scorching aura, seemed to be wrapped up by a wave of energy.
It had to be said that Wan Lei's alchemy skills were much better than Chi Guyan's.
However, he did not quite understand why Wan Lei had specially asked Tian Xing to help Chi Guyan refine the Thousand Years Fire Herb in his body into an elixir.
Was it really for the sake of obtaining the pill, as he said?
Fang Zhengzhi did not think so.
He was not stupid.
Moreover, even a fool could tell that Wan Lei's real goal was to let the Nine Pinnacles Mountain and the Heaven Dao Pavilion both suffer heavy losses. He did not want the Heaven Dao Pavilion and the Nine Pinnacles Mountain to make peace.
In that case, why did Wan Lei convince Mu Qingfeng and Tian Xing?
Just as he was thinking about this, Fang Zhengzhi felt the aura of the Thousand Years Fire Herb in his body start to spin rapidly.
As it spun rapidly, the aura also started to change.
It felt like it was polarizing.
Was it Yang and Yin?
Fang Zhengzhi could not be sure, but he had a feeling that when the aura split into two, into Yin and Yang, a fiery aura surged out from the Thousand Years Fire Herb again.
However, it did not run amok in Fang Zhengzhi's body like before. Instead, it was pulled out.
Like silk being spun off a cocoon, it was pulled out bit by bit.
As the aura was pulled out, Fang Zhengzhi could clearly feel that Wan Lei's palm, which was on his waist, was getting hotter and hotter.
"Is he trying to take advantage of my misfortune?" Fang Zhengzhi reacted quickly. At this moment, if he still could not guess what Wan Lei was thinking, he would be a fool.
Helping to refine the pill was just an excuse.
Wan Lei's real goal was to use Fang Zhengzhi, the "cauldron", to refine a pill for himself. To put it bluntly, Wan Lei wanted to use the opportunity of refining the pill for Fang Zhengzhi to absorb a portion of the Thousand Years Fire Herb into his body.
What a "grand" idea.
What a "kind" move.
Fang Zhengzhi was enduring the pain of the intense fire, while Wan Lei was using ready-made pills. Once the pills were refined, Wan Lei would probably attack Fang Zhengzhi.
After killing him with one blow, who would know what Wan Lei had done?
As for how much of a pill the Thousand Years Fire Herb in Fang Zhengzhi's body would produce, no one would know.
It could be said that no one would know.
Most importantly, Fang Zhengzhi could not speak.
Fang Zhengzhi really felt that once he entered the Holy Region, everyone was a "wolf". It was like the top of a pyramid, the higher one went, the harder it was.
Should he advance step by step, or soar to the sky?
Fang Zhengzhi decided to endure for a while.
"The two extremes of Yin and Yang, Yin … Yang … Aura rotating …" Fang Zhengzhi silently felt the aura of the Thousand Years Fire Herb wrapped by Wan Lei, and his mind kept thinking.
His gaze was fixed on Chi Guyan.
From Chi Guyan's eyes, he saw the same expression as himself.
Endure.
…
The burning aura flowed into Fang Zhengzhi's body, and then into Chi Guyan's.
Cycle, cycle after cycle.
As the cycle repeated itself, Chi Guyan's expression became more and more pained. However, her eyes became brighter and brighter. Her eyes shone like the stars in the night sky.
The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples and the Nine Pinnacles Mountain disciples had already stopped fighting.
Everyone was waiting, waiting for Fang Zhengzhi, the Human Cauldron, to refine the pill into its embryonic form.
Tian Xing and Wan Lei were both assisting Chi Guyan in refining the elixir, while Mu Qingfeng's hand glowed with a blue light. This light enveloped Chi Guyan's body, and it seemed to reduce the heat on her body.
As for Fang Zhengzhi …
He did not have the right to enjoy such treatment.
Only the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples carried buckets of cold water and poured it on his body from time to time. A few of them even released their aura, freezing the water into ice.
His body was like a furnace, and his body was like an icehouse.
This was Fang Zhengzhi's true feelings, ice and fire.
Wait a minute.
Ice, fire?
Yin, Yang?
All of a sudden, Fang Zhengzhi's eyes lit up. His blurry consciousness suddenly became clear, just like a seed that had sprouted.
