Mu Qingxiao's forehead was already covered in cold sweat. The muscles on his face twitched non-stop. His entire Jun Yi face was contorted, and blood seeped out from between his teeth.
At this moment, the shadow of the Azure Dragon in his body carried an irresistible force as it rampaged through the hidden narrow meridians. It was like a river that had broken through a dam, and the narrow meridians instantly expanded.
The Azure Dragon was a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator when it was alive. Although its main body was dead, its mind power was still a powerful force that could not be ignored. Even if Mu Qingxiao used his sword intent, he could not kill it in a short time.
The narrow meridians expanded. Because they could not defend against the mind power's attack, tiny cracks appeared on them. The cracks were densely packed, and the meridians continued to expand!
If Mu Qingxiao's meridians hadn't been modified to be extremely tough by his mental cultivation method, they would not have been able to escape the fate of being torn apart if they continued to expand.
At this moment, countless tiny wisps of golden flames suddenly surged out from the walls of his meridians. As the golden flames appeared, the cracks slowly shrank. Finally, they completely healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After the meridians healed, the meridians that could not withstand the Azure Dragon's mind power's attack became much tougher than before. They were also much wider than before …
Mu Qingxiao observed the scene in his body. Although the pain was unbearable, he gritted his teeth and persevered. He discovered that his meridians had become much wider, and his eyes shone with excitement.
He knew very well that the pain was only temporary. However, after the pain passed, it would bring him endless benefits.
As long as the hidden meridians were opened, the speed and quantity of his Spirit Qi would definitely multiply. This way, he would not have to worry about Spirit Qi in battle. He would have an absolute advantage.
The Azure Dragon's mind power was still running amok after his meridians recovered, but the pain had lessened significantly. Finally, there was the sound of countless holes, like a river flowing into the sea.
Black filth seeped out of Mu Qingxiao's body. There were even traces of black blood in the filth. This was a hidden injury that he had left behind over the years. As his meridians were unblocked, it healed.
Filth seeped out of her pores, emitting a foul stench. However, Mu Qingxiao did not seem to notice it as she carefully observed the movements in her body.
After her meridians were unobstructed and the impurities were expelled from her body, Mu Qingxiao immediately felt refreshed and her mind was clearer than before.
As long as he circulated his cultivation method, his opened meridians would be like a vent, rapidly absorbing the energy from the outside world. The thin spiritual energy in the surroundings would enter his body through his pores, flowing through his limbs and bones.
Now, the speed at which he mobilized his spiritual energy was four to five times faster than before he opened up his meridians. He didn't expect that the Azure Dragon's phantom would inadvertently help him out.
The pain in her meridians had already lessened, which allowed Mu Qingxiao to let out a sigh of relief. Finally, she no longer had to endure the intense pain.
At the same time, he was very glad that he didn't immediately let Zi Yan and the others swallow the Dragon Essence. Even he couldn't bear the pain, and he didn't want his women to experience it!
At this moment, the life force in the Dragon Essence was still being drawn into his body without any signs of decreasing.
The more this was the case, the more excited Mu Qingxiao became. With such a vast and boundless life force, immortality was definitely not in vain.
However, what made Mu Qingxiao curious was that the golden flame that had just gushed out of his meridians was clearly the Phoenix's Natal Flame. It seemed that there was still room for development in the Phoenix Marrow that he had refined.
This was because he could feel that there was a certain connection between him and the golden flame, as if it belonged to him.
He hadn't forgotten the terrifying temperature and energy of the golden fireball that the Phoenix had shot out in the lava domain at the bottom of the Lingyun Cave.
If he hadn't been able to release a powerful sword aura, it would have been wishful thinking to perish together with the Phoenix!
He had refined the Phoenix Marrow, and his blood had also evolved into a golden color. He just didn't know if he could control that flame. If he could, it would definitely be a great killing move!
However, what disappointed Mu Qingxiao was that the golden flame would only appear to heal him when he was injured. He didn't even know where it existed in his body, so how could he control it?
Thinking of this, Mu Qingxiao gathered his thoughts and focused on the Azure Dragon's shadow in his body. The shadow was still running around in his body, confronting the Sword Will. They were almost evenly matched.
The mental cultivation method was refining the life force. Fortunately, the Sword Will was strong. After a few cycles, it had wiped out nearly half of the Azure Dragon's mental strength. It would take some time to completely wipe it out.
.....
.....
An hour later, all the life force in the Dragon Essence had been drawn into Mu Qingxiao's body. The crimson halo gradually dissipated and turned into an ordinary bead that was half the size of a fist, somewhat similar to a luminous pearl.
At the same time, the Azure Dragon's shadow continued to wreak havoc in his body. Mu Qingxiao circulated the mental cultivation method at full speed, refining the life force as quickly as possible. The filth on the surface of his body gradually fell off, emitting a milky white halo.
"As expected of a half-step Nascent Soul. Even after the death of the main body, it still has such mental strength …"
Mu Qingxiao's lips curled into a sinister smile. Although the Azure Dragon's shadow was wreaking havoc in his body, it could no longer cause him any harm. At most, it would only cause him a slight pain.
After the expansion of his meridians, they were much wider and tougher than before. It didn't matter how much the Azure Dragon's shadow ran around in them.
Of course, no one would want to have something other than themselves in their body, especially such a vicious thing.
At this time, there wasn't much life force left. Mu Qingxiao could finally circulate the mental cultivation method and wipe out the mental strength with the Sword Will.
At the same time, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his cultivation level had unknowingly reached the threshold of the peak of Golden Core Level Eight. He was about to enter Golden Core Level Nine.
Although Golden Core Level Eight was only a step away from Golden Core Level Nine, he still needed a huge amount of energy to break through the barrier. Fortunately, there was still a lot of life force left …
'Life force is gentle in nature, but the power within it can't be ignored. It should be enough for me to break through.'
Mu Qingxiao pondered for a moment. He allowed the remaining life force to flow through his limbs and bones. He started to circulate the mental cultivation method with all his might. Using the Sword Will, the two forces merged and attacked the Azure Dragon's shadow.
This mental strength was extremely powerful, but it was not enough to cause him any harm. Even so, Mu Qingxiao would not allow other forces to exist in his body.
Even if he was willing, the Soul Sword would not agree.
The two forces collided and intertwined in his body. Mu Qingxiao gritted his teeth and endured. He continued to circulate the mental cultivation method. His Sword Will collided with the Azure Dragon's, constantly wiping out the Azure Dragon's will.
"Roar, roar!"
The willpower of a half-step Nascent Soul was indeed terrifying, but it still could not escape the fate of being wiped out!
