Chapter 1933: Chapter 1932: Fire Refining Body
"What about you?"
The Vermilion Bird Goddess suddenly regained her senses and looked at Li Feng’s consciousness.
"Me?"
Li Feng chuckled and said, "Right now, I’m completely in the palm of the Goddess’s hand. If I make you unhappy, you can effortlessly blast me to pieces at any moment."
Upon hearing this, the Vermilion Bird Goddess suddenly curled her lips and smiled: "Hmm, at least you have some sense."
This young man, despite having many schemes, likely had some intention of causing a rift with his words earlier. Though she has had a thousand-year relationship with the Sikong family, spanning generations unceasingly—
But humans’ lifespans are too short, and she no longer knows how many generations of the Sikong family’s descendants she has met since the cultivator she initially befriended.
The reason she’s maintained this relationship with the Sikong family is because she’s somewhat lazy and the bond with that individual still exists, preferring the familiar over the unfamiliar, and the Sikong family has always revered her.
That’s why she hasn’t thought about supporting a different family, but now the situation has changed, and she can’t keep viewing things as she did before.
Some matters are not feared for the million possibilities but afraid of the one possible mishap. What if someone from this Sikong family harbors ill intentions?
Rather than that, it might be better to cooperate with this young man. After all, as this young man said, his life is in her hands. His Golden Core has been swallowed by her, and she can completely control his life and death.
Thus, betrayal is out of the question. If he ever dares to harm her, she can deal with him in an instant.
By all accounts, such a relationship is more terrifying.
Regarding human nature, although the Vermilion Bird Goddess hasn’t been involved, she has seen quite a bit, and she doesn’t want to pay such a price to test others, entrusting her own fate to uncertainties.
"It’s just body refining, isn’t it? That’s quite simple."
If it’s about bloodline fusion, she’d have to use her essence blood, and although she can recover essence blood through nurturing, it can’t be given easily.
Back when partnering with the Sikong family, only those who passed numerous trials and reached her front would qualify for a drop of her essence blood. Having one or two in a generation was remarkable; more than that would be just dreaming.
But these "wastes" in front of her aren’t worth even a single drop of her essence blood. If it’s merely body refining, however, it’s simple, requiring only some use of Life-bound Fire.
Moreover, they’re just at the Foundation Establishment stage; her effort is negligible.
The reason she was disgruntled earlier was that doing this simply lowered her standards. She is, after all, the grand Vermilion Bird, not someone to be ordered around casually.
But now with Li Feng saying this, the Vermilion Bird Goddess feels cooperating with this young man is the best choice. This young man has neither background nor power, making betrayal impossible; instead, he must rely on her.
And with her residing within his Dantian, there’s a certain level of connection established between them. If he were to perish, she’d also be somewhat affected—not fatally, but it would make her situation worse.
Since these people are his subordinates, helping them would also make herself safer.
The Vermilion Bird Goddess figured it out and immediately didn’t need Li Feng’s urging. Life-bound Fire circulated throughout her body, and Li Feng was instantly cloaked in flames.
This young man’s Golden Core is quite interesting, containing several kinds of abnormal fire attributes.
The Vermilion Bird Goddess thought quickly, and the flames rising up instantly split into strands that floated toward Li Feng’s surrounding trusted aides sitting cross-legged.
Although it was only a thread, it was the true Vermilion Bird Fire. This single thread of Life-bound Fire directly penetrated the trusted aides’ bodies, sensing the operating Burning Technique and directly drilled into the bloodline.
The Burning Technique would extract one’s potential, causing the body to explode with astonishing energy. Normally, the stronger the power, the more dangerous it is to operate the Burning Technique, as the energy could shatter bloodline and meridians. If it cannot be suppressed, the consequence is Demon Possession, resulting in a direct explosion.
However, as this single Vermilion Bird Fire entered the body, the rampaging Flame Spirit Energy surrounding them was instantly absorbed. Let alone rampaging, even the potential triggered by the Burning Technique was being rapidly absorbed.
The absorption of the flame energy generated by the Burning Technique also began to strengthen the Vermilion Bird Fire; this process is like a substitution scenario, much gentler than directly merging bloodlines.
As the Burning Technique circulated, this single Vermilion Bird Fire continually absorbed and fused, causing a large amount of flame energy to emanate from Li Feng’s body, though as much as was released was absorbed.
With the Burning Technique activating potential, the Vermilion Fire substituted as Fire Seeds, enhancing his trusted aides’ flame power quality, as the Vermilion Bird Fire is one of the top ten abnormal fires.
And as it flowed throughout the body, it also refined the body, but this method at this moment is much more gentle compared to Li Feng’s previous approach.
Li Feng’s method previously involved breaking apart and reforming. Of course, Li Feng himself possesses the Vermilion Bird Bloodline and isn’t that fragile.
As time passed, some trusted aides began breaking through their limits, rapidly surpassing stages. The Foundation Establishment Stage isn’t a profound stage, being more about physical training, combined with accumulated Spiritual Energy.
At this moment, these people almost seemed to cheat, their experience filling directly, causing their power to progress rapidly.
Previously, those trusted aides that followed Li Feng to find the Vermilion Bird were themselves at Perfect Foundation Establishment, but crossing into Core Formation was nearly impossible, given their strength was quite flimsy, and their physical meridians were scarred due to the lack of resources provided by the Duel Arena.
Now, with the Fire Refining Body, their potential was unleashed to the fullest, using this single thread of Life-bound Fire as a foundation, achieving a breakthrough in quality first.
It can be said the effects surpass swallowing an Earth Spirit Pill, since consuming one would still require oneself completing the quality leap; now with the Vermilion Bird leading the way, it’s truly twice the result with half the effort.
Many began Solidifying Pill consecutively.
At the moment of Solidifying Pill, their absorption of external energy suddenly increased, this anomaly catching the eyes of Ouyang Qiuhai and others watching from afar.
"Is that a breakthrough?"
Ouyang Qiuhai felt some envy. Although she faced little difficulty advancing to Golden Core because she had abundant resources compared to these Death Soldiers, she had an Alchemy Master aunt, never lacking Earth Spirit Pills.
But speaking of Core Formation, she spent quite a bit of effort; yet these people easily leapt over the Core Formation stage.
Li Feng indeed spared no expense for these Death Soldiers. Such an opportunity placed in Ancestor Dragon City might fetch hundreds of Golden Spirit Stones with people competing for it.
Utterly wasteful.
Li Feng naturally noticed this too; seeing several about to break through, his flame power quickly rising, Li Feng spread more flame energy while directly taking out an Ice Lotus Petal from his Storage Ring.
"Ouch, you spendthrift."
Ouyang Qiuhai couldn’t help but exclaim—this Ice Lotus Petal, if brought back, could serve well for alchemy, and its efficacy is splendid.
And how many petals does a single Ice Lotus have anyway?
