Dumbass struggled in pain and soon, he was sweating profusely.
Xiao Bing said, "Use the energy to refine your body. Use the heat from the Earth Core Fire to circulate throughout your body. They are refining you and beating you. You have to use your strong will to defeat them. You will only win if you defeat them."
Dumbass punched the ground with both of his fists and roared at the sky.
At this moment, everyone at the foot of the mountain heard Dumbass's roar. The little girl was startled. She pulled her grandfather and asked, "Grandpa, are there monsters on the mountain? Will the two big brothers be alright? "
"Don't worry, they won't be. I have lived here for so many years and I have never heard of any monsters. I am afraid they are cultivating. "
"Cultivation?" The little girl said with a puzzled look, "Cultivation like Grandpa? Why is it so painful to cultivate? "
"Well … Grandpa doesn't know." The old fisherman sighed. "Your grandpa is just a fisherman and a blacksmith. He is not on the same level as them. But this is the first time in my life that I have met someone who purposely came to the volcano to cultivate."
The old fisherman's fishing rod suddenly sank. He pulled hard and a big fish was caught. A kind smile appeared on the old fisherman's face. He first threw the lively fish into the fish basket, then looked at his granddaughter lovingly and said with a smile, "I'll make you braised fish tonight."
"Okay, okay!" The little girl jumped happily at first, but then she looked at the mountain and asked worriedly, "Grandpa, will the two big brothers be alright?"
"Don't worry, they will be fine."
Xiao Bing kept reminding Dumbass, guiding him to use the Earth Core Fire to refine his body. In fact, this kind of refining was not as simple as just refining the body, but also the mind and body. This kind of cruel cultivation was like going through a mountain of knives and a sea of fire. Even a person with great perseverance would not be able to endure it. According to the Tianshan Elder's speculation, as long as one could endure it for a day, his will would basically be as tough as steel.
Dumbass's expression was so painful from beginning to end. One minute passed, one hour passed, three hours passed. When the sky turned dark, a whole day had passed!
Dumbass opened his eyes and heaved a sigh of relief. He lay face down on the ground and couldn't move at all.
Xiao Bing was not nervous this time. He even smiled. He looked at Dumbass and asked, "How do you feel now?"
"I seem to have died a few thousand times. Tens of thousands of blades slashed at my body, and the Samadhi True Fire in Taishang Laojun's pill furnace almost burned me into ashes. I really want to sleep now."
Then, Dumbass really fell asleep and started snoring.
Xiao Bing smiled and grabbed Dumbass's arm. He put Dumbass on his shoulder and walked down the mountain. It was already dark. The old fisherman and the little girl were no longer at the foot of the mountain. Xiao Bing carried Dumbass back to the hotel and threw Dumbass on his bed. Then he went back to his own bed to sleep.
In the next few days, Xiao Bing supervised Dumbass's cultivation every day. He did not want anything to go wrong. It would be troublesome if Dumbass went crazy.
On the ninth day, Xiao Bing felt that although Dumbass was still suffering from endless pain, his will had been tempered to the extent that it would not go crazy. Xiao Bing then started his own closed-door cultivation. He sat cross-legged and guided the Earth Core Fire into his body.
Xiao Bing's body was like a long river. The energy of the Earth Core Fire he guided was far more powerful than Dumbass. The moment the Earth Core Fire entered his body, Xiao Bing felt the pain as if his whole body was being cut apart. That kind of pain was not something a normal human could bear. Even Xiao Bing, who had been through all kinds of training since he was a child, could not help but roar at this moment. His body was trembling and his face began to look ferocious.
It was too horrible. It was as if there were countless sharp swords piercing through his body. Even if he was cut into pieces, it would not be more painful.
Xiao Bing clenched his teeth so hard that his gums began to bleed. His whole body began to convulse in pain. There seemed to be a demon in his heart that kept shouting, "Give up, give up."
This demon was made up of a mass of black flame. It was evil, horrible and powerful, like the demonic fire in hell.
This flame seemed to be able to destroy the world easily. It had a terrifying power.
Xiao Bing knew that this was the demon in his heart. It was the fire in the depths of his heart. The pain in his body and heart, coupled with the instigation of the fire in his heart, could not be endured by anyone who was at the peak of Void-breaking or even half a step to Celestial Master.
In fact, even the Tianshan Elder had written in her notes that anyone below the level of a sage who absorbed this kind of fire was likely to have a qigong deviation and turn into ashes. Only Dumbass, who was talented, was an exception.
But Xiao Bing was not a sage yet. He had not even reached the level of a Celestial Master. This kind of pain was far beyond what a human could bear. But in comparison, Xiao Bing could not bear the temptation of refining himself with the Earth Core Fire.
Xiao Bing roared and even began to bleed from his orifices.
Even Dumbass had not reached Xiao Bing's level before. But at this time, Dumbass was also in training, so he did not notice Xiao Bing's current situation.
The endless pain almost made Xiao Bing's nerves collapse. The devil's temptation made him want to give up. But images emerged in his mind one after another. When he was a child, he was laughed at for being an unwanted child. When he was in school, he was bullied by the school gangsters. He was humiliated by his classmates. He was knocked down countless times by those sneers, but he stood up again and again.
"Why?" "Because I, Xiao Bing, am the strongest!"
"Because I, Xiao Bing, am not weaker than anyone. In fact, I am stronger than anyone!"
"What others can't bear doesn't mean that I, Xiao Bing, can't bear it. I, Xiao Bing, will never give up!"
Either you destroy me, or you conquer me!
Xiao Bing's incomparably terrifying willpower supported him every time when he was on the verge of collapse. His whole body was burning hot, as if he was being roasted. His orifices finally stopped bleeding. His body was still trembling, but in addition to the pain on his face, there was more determination.
The demon in Xiao Bing's heart was still inciting Xiao Bing. It laughed at Xiao Bing and kept saying, "Weak human, how can you compete with nature? Do you think you can resist the heat of the Earth Core Fire? Don't hold on anymore. Give up now. Otherwise, the Earth Core Fire will destroy you and you will never be able to reincarnate. "
"You can't compete with the power of the Earth Core Fire. It is the power of nature, the supernatural power!"
Xiao Bing clenched his fists. Suddenly, he looked up and roared, "The power of nature is nothing! Even if God stops me, I will poke a hole in the God! Go away!!! "
All of a sudden, the devil in Xiao Bing's heart screamed. It gradually turned into nothingness and disappeared completely.
Xiao Bing didn't know that at this moment, his spiritual power had changed. His willpower was stronger than before!
Dumbass sat there until it was dark. Then he opened his eyes and found that Xiao Bing was still cultivating. He scratched his hair and stood up. Looking at Xiao Bing's painful face, he was at a loss of what to do and how to do it.
In the end, he sat down and stared at Xiao Bing for a few hours. Finding that Xiao Bing was still practicing, Dumbass directly fell asleep.
The next morning, Xiao Bing still didn't open his eyes. Dumbass ate some bread and then continued practicing.
For three days, when Dumbass opened his eyes on the third night, he found that Xiao Bing had finally finished practicing. But at this moment, Xiao Bing was lying on the ground. His eyes were bloodshot and he didn't move at all.
Dumbass moved closer and asked, "Boss Xiao, are you okay?"
Xiao Bing looked at Dumbass. Dumbass seemed to be struck by lightning. The look in his eyes was even more terrible than lightning, which scared Dumbass.
Xiao Bing said lightly, "I'm fine, but I can't move. In just one day, I feel as if I have walked on the edge of life and death thousands of times. Many times, I almost couldn't hold on and couldn't come back. But in the end, I still came back. Now I feel as if I have been reincarnated. No, it seems that I have been reincarnated."
Xiao Bing couldn't explain the feeling. It seemed that he had experienced many lives. The way he looked at the world had changed, becoming more thorough and profound.
Dumbass couldn't help but interrupt him, "Boss Xiao, I'm going to say something unpleasant. You don't like it!"
Xiao Bing nodded and said, "Go ahead. I'm so tired now. Even if you scold me, I don't have the strength to beat you."
Dumbass scratched his hair and grinned, "I just don't think you are good at math. Is math taught by a PE teacher? Now it has been three days. How can you say that it has only been one day? "
Xiao Bing was taken aback. He looked at Dumbass in disbelief and asked, "Three … three days?"
"Yes, it has been three days!" Dumbass scratched his hair and said with a distressed look, "Two days ago, we had bread to eat. Today, I have been hungry for a whole day. I didn't dare to go down the mountain because I was afraid that something would happen to you here. You finally woke up."
"It has been three days." Xiao Bing exhaled and smiled bitterly, "No wonder I feel that my spirit is on the verge of the limit. If I don't wake up, my nerves will completely collapse and I won't be able to open my eyes again. It has been three days."
Dumbass sighed, "Even if it is only a few minutes, I feel that it is a thousand times more painful than you beating me for a whole day. It is my limit to hold on for one day. Boss Xiao, how did you hold on for the past three days?"
Xiao Bing smiled bitterly. He didn't even dare to think about all the torture he had suffered in the past three days. He almost collapsed countless times and even wanted to cry out in pain. But he recalled all the things that happened in the past, including when he was trampled under someone's feet in junior high school. He had never surrendered in his life. He was afraid that if he flinched, he would never be able to stand up again. Flinching meant giving in.
Therefore, he kept fighting every time. Every time his spirit reached its limit and his willpower was about to collapse, he would gather it again and forcibly endure that inhuman impact. He just didn't want to lose. He didn't want to lose to the devil in his heart. He didn't want to lose to his willpower.
But he didn't expect that he had been holding on for three days!
Dumbass carried Xiao Bing on his shoulder and walked down the mountain. He kept saying, "This time I will carry you down the mountain."
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "After so many days of cultivation, do you have any experience that you want to tell me?"
Dumbass licked his lips and smiled, "I just want to say, take me to eat more delicious food tonight!"
