Even if it meant overdrawing her potential, even if taking pills would have side effects, Lan Rong had to refine Chen Changsheng to death before she could stop!
The Lan family cultivators she brought were already completely wiped out. If she didn't want to be punished by the family, she had to kill Chen Changsheng, otherwise she wouldn't be able to explain it to the Lan family elders.
Those were the entire family's Golden Core cultivators, the core and mainstay of the Lan family. Losing them was equivalent to losing their foundation.
If she failed to kill Chen Changsheng, the consequences for Lan Rong upon returning to the Lan family would be unimaginable.
"Die! Die! !"
Lan Rong hysterically screamed, frantically urging her true energy into the pagoda.
But Chen Changsheng inside the pagoda was as steady as Mount Tai, soaking in the Nether Spring without moving an inch.
No matter how the cold Nether Spring surged, the Undying True Phoenix Fire covering his body remained unchanged, still dazzling and radiant, its energy endless and indestructible.
"What kind of cultivation technique is this? Why can't I refine him? Is the ancient inheritance of the ancient Immortal Dao so terrifying?"
"It shouldn't be! Even the geniuses of the Holy Land would meet their demise inside my pagoda. He must be enduring it! Just a little longer!"
Lan Rong's face grew paler, the overdraft of true energy and her body making her look bloodless, a weak appearance as if her essence had been drained.
Her heart was filled with shock and unwillingness.
She had clearly taken him into the pagoda, but she couldn't refine him. It felt like biting into a delicious-looking rock, tasty but impossible to eat.
The key was that she had already swallowed the pills without regard for the consequences. Having started, she couldn't give up halfway.
To deal with this tough nut to crack, Lan Rong could only keep pouring in true energy, enduring the side effects of the pills, enduring the risk of overdrafting her potential, even overdrafting her life force!
Inside the pagoda, Chen Changsheng was as calm as still water, the Phoenix True Fire on his body erupting in silence.
But no matter how he comprehended, he always felt that something was missing, preventing him from capturing that wisp of True Fire.
"What is it? I've already seen that wisp of True Fire under the pressure of life and death, but I still can't touch it."
Zhuo Heng: "According to what you said, you should have touched the Dao domain of the Undying True Phoenix Scripture, and the reason why you can't enter the Dao domain is obviously that your mindset is focused on the former, and you are too obsessed with the former."
Zhuo Heng: "Try to look at the latter, sometimes you have to destroy to create!"
Boom!
Chen Changsheng's heart in the Nether Spring was shaken violently, and the Phoenix True Fire on his body was like a candle swaying in a hurricane, shaking and swinging wildly.
"The immortality of longevity is for immortality to extend life."
"The immortality of the Phoenix True Fire is for rebirth through Nirvana."
"My original intention for cultivating the Undying True Phoenix Scripture was to use the immortality of Nirvana to protect my immortality."
"The two have different focuses, but they can complement each other."
"But if I want to step into the Dao domain of the Undying True Phoenix Scripture, I must experience life and death, experience rebirth from a drop of blood, and experience the reshaping of severed limbs. These are all experiences I have never had."
Chen Changsheng suddenly understood everything.
No wonder he only saw that wisp of True Fire with endless energy after his true energy was exhausted. No wonder he could never capture that wisp of True Fire.
It turned out that the wisp of True Fire was hidden between life and death, no death, no life!
Only when faced with death would that wisp of True Fire emerge from his body, protecting him and allowing him to be reborn in the flames.
How could he comprehend the mysteries of the Undying True Phoenix Fire without experiencing death?
Having understood everything, Chen Changsheng directly extinguished the Undying True Phoenix Fire on his body, allowing the Nether Spring to erode his body, the cold piercing his bones like ice crystals drilling into his body.
At this moment, Chen Changsheng's skin began to melt, his blood quickly dried up, and his bones were covered with frost under the immersion of the Nether Spring.
"Hahahahaha! ! Sure enough! You were indeed enduring it. You can't hold on any longer now, right!"
Lan Rong outside the pagoda was overjoyed, her laughter hoarse and old. Her jet-black hair had now turned gray, and her fair face had become shriveled and wrinkled.
To refine Chen Changsheng, she had given everything, including her life force and lifespan!
Just when she was about to give up, the flames on Chen Changsheng's body finally went out. Seeing his skin melt, she seemed to see the dawn of victory and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
In the Nether Spring, Chen Changsheng's skin completely melted, leaving only a skeleton of white bones, and his internal organs and bones were also dissolving at an alarming rate.
Lan Rong became even more excited, and her true energy poured out.
Just as Chen Changsheng was about to completely turn into dust, even his Dao Foundation and Golden Core were melting in the Nether Spring, leaving only a tenacious strand of golden blood.
No matter how Lan Rong urged the pagoda, she could not completely obliterate it.
"What's going on?"
Her heart couldn't help but thump, and she felt half-cooled.
A strong sense of unease suddenly surged into her heart, and a look of panic appeared on Lan Rong's aging face. She urged her true energy desperately, and her life force was consumed rapidly.
Buzz!
That strand of brilliant golden blood suddenly bloomed with dazzling light, and under the illumination of the light, a beautiful golden flame ignited.
In an instant, a phantom of a phoenix spreading its wings soared up, as if a True Phoenix had ignited the vast sea, and the extremely cold Nether Spring was steamed into a mist!
The pagoda that was refining Chen Changsheng trembled uncontrollably, and the scalding high temperature instantly burned Lan Rong's palm. She subconsciously threw the pagoda out of her hand.
Bang!
The next second, the pagoda exploded, and countless streamers of fragments scattered like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, slashing across Lan Rong's old face.
Her pupils suddenly shrank sharply, and she saw golden-red flames burning hundreds of miles around, and everything in front of her was filled with the beautiful Phoenix True Fire.
A handsome figure condensed from the flames, wearing a golden phoenix-patterned Taoist robe, walked out of the flames, like a monarch in the flames, or a Nirvana Phoenix reborn in the True Fire, controlling everything around him, standing in the True Fire undying and indestructible!
Undying True Phoenix Domain!
Chen Changsheng was reborn from a drop of blood between life and death, comprehended the Dao domain of the Undying True Phoenix Scripture, and mastered the undying and indestructible Phoenix True Fire.
It can burn the sky and boil the sea, igniting everything!
