The surface of Yi Yun’s skin also became red like fire suddenly!
His meridians began to emerge under his skin as they sparkled with red or gold fiery lights.
Two flashes of reddish-gold lights appeared at the bottom of Yi Yun’s eyes. His present appearance looked like his body would spontaneously go up in flames at any moment, reducing him to ashes.
The pure Yang Yuan Qi was too pure! Too forceful!
“Weng— Weng—”
The pure Yang Yuan Qi was surging like an inferno, it began to burn Yi Yun’s body.
Yi Yun was like a sword placed in an inferno, turning red from the heat!
Yi Yun endured the violent pure Yang energy. The sweat that came out of his body immediately evaporated. His lips slowly cracked from dryness, but his eyes revealed that of excitement.
The feeling of being burned by pure Yang flames was excruciating, but it was also a very joyful experience!
It was like drinking a glass of hard liquor. If it burned, then let it burn fiercely. And Yi Yun wanted to use this fierce fire to refine himself into a good sword!
Yi Yun did not protect his Dantian. Instead, he was absorbing the pure Yang energy constantly and letting it burn.
Yi Yun’s meridians were constantly parched and they were even on the brink of breaking. Meridians were very important to a warrior in their strive towards martial arts. Once they were damaged, it was very hard for them to recover. It was difficult to heal them even if all sorts of treasures were consumed, hence, warriors were like birds who treasured their feathers in the same way they cherished their meridians.
However, now, Yi Yun was using such a brutal method to burn them!
The pain in his meridians made Yi Yun’s mouth twitch. One meridian after another was burned and it was a shocking sight.
Yi Yun clenched his fist and gasped heavily. It was still not enough!
He opened his mouth and with a flick of his fingers, the second blood lotus seed entered his mouth!
For a treasured sword to be refined, it had to go through thousands of stages of tempering. Stopping midway would fall short of completion!
Before finishing absorbing the first wave of energy, the second wave of energy surged over like a tidal wave. Under such a fierce impact, some of Yi Yun’s meridians started to break.
Yi Yun’s eyes were red. Pure Yang energy was accumulating in his body! It was expanding!
However… it was still not enough!
With determination, he grabbed a handful of lotus seeds. There were about seven or eight of them and he stuffed them into his mouth. For a divine sword to be forged amidst fierce fire, it was all a gamble!
With seven to eight lotus seeds entering his stomach, terrifying pure Yang energy exploded once again!
Only by having the Purple Crystal to control the situation did Yi Yun dare to be so crazy. But even so, when the pure Yang energy exploded like a earth-shattering tsunami, Yi Yun’s body could no longer take it. It began to collapse!
With his meridians burnt, they had turned black. It was like a slight touch would cause them to become flying ash.
Yi Yun’s body shivered. The unlimited heat spurt out from all his orifices and pores. The heat which was emitted also brought evaporated blood along with it. This resulted in Yi Yun appearing to be covered in a blood mist. The scene looked fearsome.
Yi Yun gritted his teeth. He felt his consciousness was slowly slipping away. He could only hold on to the final bit of clarity in his head, so he would not be completely destroyed.
As time went by, under his fuzzy state, Yi Yun did not know how much time had passed. He felt that everything around him had turned distant. He could only feel the coolness the Purple Crystal in his heart as it gently swirled.
As he felt he was almost dying, a faint warmness sprouted from deep within his body.
This warmness was full of vitality. It was like spring water that resulted after ice melted. Wherever it passed, it brought new life!
“Ka Ka Ka!”
