955. Complete Refining
955. Complete Refining
As if sensing that Xiao Yan and his companions were helpless against the dark tree shadows, the Bodhi Ancient Tree behind them began to emit a verdant glow and flew out to block their path.
Emerald green light patterns spread out, conveying information once again in this way, and Xiao Yan and the other two understood the meaning of the Bodhi Ancient Tree's true form.
"Full speed up the refining of Bodhi seeds!"
Now that the strange fire has no effect on the dark tree shadow, no matter how powerful Xiao Yan and his companions are, it's all in vain. The only thing they can do is to quickly refine the Bodhi seed. The pure energy transformed from the Bodhi seed has a very strong restraining effect on the dark tree shadow.
Xiao Yan glanced at the Bodhi Seed floating in mid-air and silently thought to himself: There's not enough time, let's give it our all!
With eight Bodhi seeds remaining, Xiao Yan, having made up his mind, quickly grabbed six of them and shouted to Hun Feng, "We can't be slow any longer, refine them all together! The rest is up to you!"
Unwilling to waste any more time, Xiao Yan sat down cross-legged and said to Huo Zhi beside him, "Help me!"
There was no need for further explanation between the two. Huo Zhi immediately understood and quickly sat behind Xiao Yan, placing her hands on Xiao Yan's back. A warm current flowed from Huo Zhi's hands into Xiao Yan's body, transmitting the Red Lotus Karmic Fire Dou Qi!
As his condition reached its peak, a terrifyingly high temperature, powerful enough to incinerate mountains and boil seas, was released from Xiao Yan's body without reservation.
Black, purple, and blood-red Eight Desolate Star Lotus Flames instantly appeared, completely enveloping the six floating Bodhi seeds!
Refining, begin!
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The six Bodhi seeds vibrated violently at the same time. Their emerald green skins, though seemingly thin, granted them the ability to temporarily resist the domineering strange fire.
Now, Xiao Yan had completely gone all out, splitting his soul power into six, and a violent yet orderly heat wave crashed against the Bodhi Seed.
The six Bodhi seeds still have subtle differences, so the test for the person refining them is extremely high. Xiao Yan needs to have perfect control over the strength of the fire, the distribution of energy, and the angle of the heat wave.
The three-colored flames were dazzling, and the emerald green light, instead of weakening under the heat of the flames, became even purer and clearer!
Seeing this situation, Hunfeng knew that rapid refining was the only way out, so he disregarded everything else and did his best to refine the two Bodhi seeds.
Before them, the Bodhi Ancient Tree shone with emerald green light, blocking all the tentacles of the dark tree shadow. However, the black mist swirling around those tentacles was still slowly encroaching on the Bodhi Ancient Tree's territory.
Pure life energy is ultimately eroded by black energy, which is fundamentally different from battle qi.
As the refining process deepened, Xiao Yan discovered that the pressure on his soul was actually decreasing.
The next moment, Xiao Yan realized: it wasn't that the pressure had lessened, but that he had become stronger!
Xiao Yan's distraction, which he was managing with ease, only caught sight of the Bodhi Tree itself, which was constantly retreating but desperately protecting them, and Hun Feng, who was frantically trying to refine two Bodhi seeds due to her lack of experience. If this continued, she would definitely be unable to handle it all.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan gritted his teeth. He couldn't do it with Soul Wind, but he still had the strength left!
Xiao Yan raised his right hand and released the Void Devouring Flame Sub-Flame. The Void Devouring Flame Sub-Flame was quite excited upon its appearance; it hadn't had the chance before, but now its master, Xiao Yan, had actually made it actively move closer to Soul Wind.
Xiao Yan had already noticed this phenomenon. After all, they were the same kind of different flames. Just like the Red Lotus Karmic Flame attracts each other, even though his Void Devouring Flame Sub-Flame was sealed by his soul imprint, it still had an instinctive affinity for other Void Devouring Flame Sub-Flames.
Xiao Yan further divided his soul power into another part, and the Void Devouring Flame helped Hun Feng begin refining. With Xiao Yan's help, Hun Feng, who was originally somewhat flustered, finally stabilized the refining of the two Bodhi seeds.
Waves of energy, almost tangible, rippled and spread outwards.
Time passed slowly, and the aggressive shadows of the dark tree gradually eroded the protective azure light of the Bodhi tree. As the two forces waxed and waned, not only could the Bodhi tree not hold on, but the surrounding azure barrier also began to crumble.
Xiao Yan's expression was extremely solemn, the veins on his forehead throbbed slightly, and the sweat that had just seeped out of his skin evaporated instantly.
His mind was divided into seven parts, each used to refine Bodhi seeds using a different kind of fire. This was due to Xiao Yan's incredibly strong and resilient soul, the continuous guidance and improvement he had received during this period, and his extensive experience from refining the seeds more than ten times. These combined factors enabled Xiao Yan to accomplish this miracle.
As time passed, Xiao Yan's Dou Qi was almost depleted. If it weren't for the previous expansion and Huo Zhi's consumption of pills as an aid, Xiao Yan's refining process would have been impossible to continue.
The emerald green Bodhi seed shape in mid-air had completely disappeared, turning into clumps of emerald green liquid.
Meanwhile, with the help of Xiao Yan's Void Devouring Flame Sub-Fire, Soul Wind had already finished refining, and two streams of emerald green energy were immediately guided towards the dark tree shadows.
Wherever the pure energy passed, the black energy vanished as if it had encountered its greatest nemesis, and the dark tree shadows also rippled once more after this attack.
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!"
However, the amount of pure energy was still insufficient, and it was exhausted just as it threatened the tree shadow. After the pure energy stopped attacking, the dark tree shadow spun around, and its original body seemed to shrink by half, becoming even smaller. However, the black energy became even thicker and as black as ink.
The dense attacks continued to pierce the Bodhi tree like long needles, each one creating a hole in its body. The crushing force against the Bodhi tree grew stronger, its aura weakened, and the tree's protective barrier began to crumble.
Seeing this situation, Hunfeng felt somewhat helpless. She had done all she could, and all she could do now was trust Xiao Yan. She also knew that her current predicament was partly due to her insistence on trying to refine the Bodhi Seed earlier.
She had originally wanted to study Xiao Yan's Void Devouring Flame Sub-Flame in detail, but now that the crisis was imminent, she no longer had the mind to do so and could only hope that Xiao Yan would complete the refinement quickly.
Xiao Yan did not disappoint her expectations. After half an incense stick's time, Xiao Yan's eyes and cheeks were bloodless due to the depletion of his fighting spirit. His fighting spirit had been almost completely exhausted, but Xiao Yan's eyes were extremely excited.
Because in front of him was an extremely large amount of pure energy, and the pure blue mist was the biggest trump card in the current battle!
