C105 (2/2)

Cang Yun took a deep breath and opened the medicine box.

A bright red glow instantly emanated from it. It was a dazzling, fiery red.

Cang Yun's mind stirred as he watched. This red lotus quietly lay inside the medicine box. Every lotus petal seemed to be carved from a red crystal. The lines on its surface were clear and had a faint halo of light circulating around it.

Its roots were sparkling and translucent like jade, seemingly complete and without any impurities. This object also contained its medicinal properties, making it extremely valuable.

However, what attracted Cang Yun's attention was at the center of the flower petal, the green lotus pedestal, and the crystal clear lotus seeds that emitted an alluring aura.

These lotus seeds were the essence of the entire fire lotus. They contained a massive amount of pure energy. Whether it was used to refine medicine or directly consumed, it could increase one's cultivation.

There were a total of 18 lotus seeds. Each lotus seed was extremely plump. It was evident that they had matured and contained the greatest amount of energy.

”Now, I can finally raise my strength again …”

Cang Yun gently took a lotus seed from the lotus seat and carefully sealed the entire fire lotus.

Although this fire lotus was a treasure, its roots and petals were of greater medicinal value. If it was used to raise one's cultivation directly, the lotus seed was the most suitable.

In the next moment, Cang Yun put away the medicine box into his storage ring. He did not rush to take the lotus seed, but rather started to circulate the 'True Dragon Tactics of the Heavenly Mantra' first.

The Origin Energy slowly circulated according to the circulation path in his body. Only when his Qi had completely stabilized did everything become prepared.

With a thought, Cang Yun placed the lotus seed into his mouth.

Once the lotus seed entered his mouth, it immediately turned into a wave of pure positive Origin Energy.

This feeling was akin to swallowing a large mouthful of magma. The only difference was that this magma was extremely gentle and there was not the slightest trace of irritation.

Even so, the heat was unbearable!

The surface of Cang Yun's skin suddenly turned red like fire.

His meridians were also bulging due to the huge amount of Origin Energy, and within them, a fiery red light also flickered.

The medicinal strength of this fire lotus was both pure and majestic.

”Buzz buzz …!”

Cang Yun crazily circulated the ”True Dragon Tactics of the Heavens”, directing the pure yang energy of the lotus seed, and gradually circulated it within his meridians.

At this time, Cang Yun was like a furnace. And within the furnace, the positive force of the lotus seed was like a blazing flame. It blazed fiercely within the furnace, grilling and polishing the furnace's walls.

Originally, Cang Yun only needed to open his pores to greatly reduce the positive energy in his body, like a furnace opening its lid. However, he did not do so because he could feel that after the refinement of the lotus seed energy, his body and meridians were constantly increasing.

Such opportunities like these could only be found but not sought after. If he were to give up, it would simply be a waste of the heaven's treasures. So, no matter how uncomfortable it was, as long as there wasn't too much danger, Cang Yun would not give up.

The burning pain in Cang Yun's meridians made the corner of his mouth twitch. He clenched his fists but did not dare to move. He could only continue to silently circulate his cultivation technique as he endured this pain.

After an unknown amount of time, the scorching energy within his body finally began to calm down. Cang Yun's aura became much stronger and a layer of greasy substance appeared around his body. Clearly, washing his essence and marrow had a certain amount of effect.

However, this was still not enough!

Cang Yun knew that in the process of washing essence and marrow, it was necessary to do it in one go. Once it was exhausted, it would be impossible to get rid of the remaining impurities.

Thus, as Cang Yun controlled the circulation of his cultivation method, he took out the fire lotus medicine box and took out a handful of lotus seeds. There were a total of nine lotus seeds.

Originally, a heavenly material like the fire lotus seed contained a tremendous amount of energy. Even a Nihility God Stage expert would not be able to absorb so much in one go.

However, his current situation was different. The energy of the fire lotus had triggered the changes in his body, and this process was no longer purely a matter of raising his cultivation level.

Cang Yun flicked his finger and another lotus seed appeared in his mouth.

In an instant, the pure energy spread throughout his body, most of it was absorbed by Cang Yun's meridians, blood, flesh, and bones. Only an extremely small amount of it could flow into his dantian.

The process of washing the marrow continued... Cang Yun could clearly feel that his body was still rapidly strengthening, and inside it, he could faintly feel a sense of extreme hunger and thirst.

This feeling caused Cang Yun to pause for a moment. Then, his expression turned serious as he directly swallowed the remaining eight lotus seeds in his hand.

BOOM!

In the blink of an eye, the inexhaustible heat flowed like a flood, madly accumulating within Cang Yun's body. The scorching energy roasted Cang Yun until his entire body turned red.

On the surface of his skin, there were even faint traces of burning flames. In an instant, the green robe on his body was burnt and destroyed. A dense layer of fire could be seen faintly on the surface of his bare skin.

Cang Yun's entire body trembled. Endless heat gushed out from all of his blood orifices and pores, and a faint trace of blood was mixed within. At this moment, Cang Yun's entire body was covered in a layer of blood fog, making him look like a cocoon.

Cang Yun gritted his teeth. He could feel that his consciousness was gradually leaving his body. He could only hold on to the last bit of clarity in his mind and not destroy it.

Thus, time slowly flowed by. It was unknown how long it took until he felt the heat in his body gradually dissipating and a cooling sensation that he hadn't felt in a long time appear in his heart. Only then did his consciousness gradually clear up …
