Qiyue saw it; she’ll probably be worried. This thought surfaced in Meng Chuan’s mind, but the pain from the baneful aura drilling into his entire body made him unable to divert his attention.
He couldn’t help but let out a low grunt. He bit the towel in his mouth tightly as he endured the pain.
Compared to death and despair, what’s this bit of pain worth? Come on, come on.
This will only make me stronger! Many scenes flashed through Meng Chuan’s mind. They were scenes that were in “Facing the Morning Sun.” Those despairing scenes—as well as the scenes of people fighting desperately—empowered his determination. In the face of such a cruel war, how could the pain from cultivating compare? If he couldn’t even withstand it, his oath to slay all demons in the world would be nothing but empty words.
The difficulty of slaying all the demons in the world could be described as a mountain that towered above the clouds. The torment from his cultivation was nothing more than a tiny mound.
Now, he needed to flatten the small mound first!
His will was constantly tempered by the excruciating pain. A precious sword needed to be tempered; likewise for his will. It was like a saber that was sharpened constantly, making it sharper.
It was unknown how much time had passed, but the pain his body finally subsided like the tide. Previously, he felt like he was in hell, but with the pain gone, he felt light and ethereal. He felt comfort, extreme comfort. Meng Chuan understood that this was all an illusion. He had gotten used to the pain and torture after experiencing it for a long time. Now that the pain was gone, he felt extremely comfortable.
Today’s Godfiend body cultivation has ended. Meng Chuan stood up from the bathtub. Quintessential Essence circulated around his body, and the water slid off his body. Following that, he simply put on his robes and walked out with a bounce in his step.
Creak.
He opened the wooden door and saw Liu Qiyue walking over. Liu Qiyue smiled and said, “Ah Chuan, you must be hungry. I just made some food for you.”
Meng Chuan’s heart warmed. He knew Qiyue treated him really well. If he could spend the rest of his life with Qiyue in the future… how wonderful it would be. However, he and Qiyue had to cultivate diligently. Archean Mountain had high expectations for her, considering how she had awakened a phoenix bloodline.
Neither of them could slack off.
“I’m really hungry,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. The two of them came to the dining table, where two bowls of rice porridge and some other dishes were placed.
After Meng Chuan sat down, he immediately had a large mouthful of porridge and found his stomach warm. He nodded. “I don’t usually find porridge this delicious.”
“Then, I’ll make you some porridge after you’re done cultivating every night.” Liu Qiyue was also eating the porridge when she couldn’t help but ask, “Ah Chuan, are you in such pain when cultivating every night?”
Meng Chuan smiled and said, “How can it be easy to master a transcendent-grade Godfiend body? Suffering now to become stronger in the future is something I can bear with.”
“It’s been five days since you’ve completed the Seven Refinement, right?” asked Liu Qiyue.
“Yes, the fifth day.” Meng Chuan nodded.
“You refine baneful aura every day?” asked Liu Qiyue.
“With the help of the medicinal bath, my body will have completely recovered the next day. Of course, I have to cultivate every day,” said Meng Chuan. “I have to make use of my cultivation time.”
Liu Qiyue couldn’t help but say, “But the Eighth Refinement seems to be very painful. I asked Steward Liu. It takes four hours. Four hours of pain and torture… I don’t think your mind can take it if you experience such torture every day. My master once said that the mind has its limits. Exceeding it can break one’s mind! I think it’s better for you to cultivate every other day and take breaks in between.”
“Haha,” Meng Chuan laughed. “Qiyue, this is just the Eighth Refinement. The Ninth Refinement requires the Six Desires baneful aura. It’s much more demanding on my will. I’m trying to master the Lightning Devastator Fiend Body’s Ninth Refinement. The Eighth Refinement happens to temper my will through pain.
