Chapter 40: Condensing the Essence Flame

Pain!

A pain that penetrated deep into the bone marrow! The entire body was engulfed in purple flames, and at this moment, Gu He felt no different from being roasted over a fire. Enduring the intense pain coursing through his body, Gu He focused his consciousness inward.

Inside Gu He's body, the terrifying energy of the purple flames was recklessly traversing through his meridians. Anything blocking their path would be incinerated into nothingness in an instant.

Under the scorching heat, the once spacious and resilient meridians had twisted into grotesque and horrifying shapes, resembling twisted liquorice sticks.

Of course, the excruciating pain caused by the twisted meridians made Gu He's body involuntarily convulse, his muscles tensed, and his pale face lost all color.

"Rarely do I find myself in such a colourful world—no mortgages, no car loans, and no exorbitant dowries. All I have is a grand feast of cultivation!"

"Since I possess this system, blessed by heaven, I am destined to rise above the Nine Heavens and stand on the edge of the clouds!"

"If I can't endure this bit of suffering, how can I achieve success in the future!"

Endless agony had overwhelmed Gu He's nerves, and his once handsome face had become incredibly grim. Then, an incredibly bright smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

When you treat pain as enjoyment, there is nothing in this world that can shake your determination. Within the meridians, purple flames were wildly surging. In just a few minutes, Gu He's insides were practically in chaos.

The scorching temperature emitted from within spread through the meridians and bones. It caused small white bubbles to appear on the surface of Gu He's body. These bubbles burst, revealing the crimson flesh underneath.

Small cracks extended from the flesh, eventually covering Gu He's arms and body, making him look somewhat horrifying, like a broken porcelain doll.

The Nine Abyssal Flames flowed through one meridian after another. Wherever it passed, withered meridians regained their vitality. Cracked bones and burned muscles also began to repair at a gratifying speed.

Moreover, the repaired meridians, bones, and other parts of his body exhibited a resilience far surpassing their previous strength.

Clearly, although the Nine Abyssal Flames had caused significant damage, the compensation it provided made the vital organs in his body feel it was worth it.

While the Nine Abyssal Flames repaired Gu He's internal body, his external body, covered in bloodstains, gradually saw the wounds merging.

Scabs rapidly formed and fell off, leaving no trace. The muscles beneath the skin's surface quickly strengthened. Though not comparable to those of a bodybuilder, a burst of explosive strength seemed to gather when he extended his arms.

The skin on the surface of his body shed like a snake's skin, quickly falling away. The newly revealed skin appeared as delicate as a woman's, but it possessed defense and sensitivity to the energy of the heavens and earth several times stronger than before.

At this moment, Gu He, aided by his unique state, was rapidly strengthening and repairing his severely damaged body with the immense and almost terrifying energy contained within the Nine Abyssal Flames. This was truly a stroke of fortune and luck.

The repair and strengthening process progressed slowly, and when the Nine Abyssal Flames finally drilled through the last injured meridian, Gu He's once critically injured body had been restored to near perfection. The combat power this body could now unleash was undoubtedly much greater than before!

After completely repairing Gu He's body, the Nine Abyssal Flames instantly transformed into a purple radiance and directly entered the depths of Gu He's soul, disappearing from view.

In the moment the Nine Abyssal Flames entered Gu He's soul, his previously unconscious soul suddenly trembled, and then it fully awakened.

Once his soul awakened, Gu He's consciousness instinctively scanned his body's interior, and the fresh changes within him left him momentarily stunned.

However, as he examined his soul, and saw the strand of purple radiance deep within it, a surge of uncontrollable joy welled up in his heart.

Success!
