Chapter 23: Great Auspicious Fate, Achieving the Elixir

  Outside the Huichun Valley, a torrential rain poured down, and bolt after bolt of lightning struck down from the sky in a straight line. Occasionally, a tall tree was hit by lightning, and the writhing electric snake slid and jumped on the trunk, spewing out piercing flames that split the trunk into powder. Large blocks of burning wood flew off the trunk, "whooshing" like a giant firework exploding in mid-air, with countless sparks rising in the rain to create a brilliant glow that shot out in all directions.

  Thunder, heavenly order, pure yang extreme hardness, internal infinite firepower.

  Lin Xiao stood on a smooth, high boulder on the top of Tongshan Mountain, quietly watching as bolt after bolt of lightning struck down, fully displaying the majesty and boundless power of heaven and earth. Each bolt of lightning brought with it endless heat and infinite power from the sky, causing Lin Xiao to feel his internal True Fire Primordial Yuan stirring and jumping in waves, as if his own True Yuan was being drawn out by the external lightning, transforming from a dormant insect into an active one. As the thunderous roars grew louder, his Dantian churned like a tidal wave, causing a dull ache within.

  A night of thunder, for ordinary cultivators, is a great taboo in their cultivation. The chaotic power of the thunder will lead to their true energy flowing wildly and erratically, causing nine out of ten people to go mad.

  But for the pure fire-type Lin Xiao, the days with thunderstorms were actually a great opportunity for him to break through. The fierce fire and thunderbolts originally had something in common, and the external thunderbolts stimulated the true yuan within Lin Xiao's body, making his true yuan even more lively and vibrant, like a blazing flame that swept through his body. Especially, by observing the mighty power of the heavenly thunderbolts, he could also gain insight into some extraordinary changes - for example, how to release an even stronger palm thunderbolt.

  He took a deep breath, and Lin Xiao suddenly sat cross-legged on the Wuyun Stone. In his arms was a fist-sized, polished, high-quality fire-attribute spirit stone that shone brightly, which he had obtained as a reward for winning the inner sect competition. The high-quality fire-attribute spirit stone contained a powerful fire-attribute spirit energy within it. Lin Xiao used a secret method to extract the spirit energy from inside, and a thick, warm energy suddenly surged out of the spirit stone and merged into his body. A wave of heat stirred within Lin Xiao's body, and threads of warmth continuously spread outward from his body, evaporating the rain before it could even touch him, enveloping his body in a circle of steam that obscured everything within several dozen feet.

  A ring of bright red light burst forth from the Ling Stone, like a living creature, twisting and covering Lin Xiao's body, wrapping him entirely within.

  Dozens of feet away, a figure flashed, and Dan Jing Dao Ren, Dan Yu Dao Ren, and several other elders of the Da Luo Dan Tao emerged from the rain curtain. Dan Jing Dao Ren looked at Lin Xiao with great appreciation, nodding in praise: "Good kid, actually able to comprehend the true fire transformation from the thunderous sky, indeed a good kid. However, how did Dan Fu Shi Di and Dan Xia Shi Mei teach him? Practicing outside the mountain's protective array without any defensive forbidden techniques?" Suddenly, Dan Jing Dao Ren smiled and said: "Why don't I take Lin Xiao as my disciple, what do you all think?"

  Several elderly people from the Dan Yu Dao simultaneously lifted their heads, gazing at the flashes of lightning streaking across the sky. The leader of the Dan Yu Dao let out a long sigh and said: "Indeed it's a rare sight! We can return to Chun Valley now; we haven't seen lightning in many years!"

  Dan Jing's face changed, and he said coldly, "I'm asking you, Master, what do you think about taking Lin Xiao as a disciple?"

  Several old Daoists cast a sideways glance at Dan Jing, and Dan Yu lowered his head, speaking slowly and deliberately: "Let's see, Elder Brother has how many treasures to delight Dān Xiǎo?"

  Dan Jing Daoren was taken aback, and he slapped his forehead hard, muttering in a low voice: "This time she cheated and got the Baobao Hongniu clothes, what else does she want? Haven't you seen that all of you brothers are too embarrassed to compete with her, and deliberately ordered your disciples not to refine good elixirs? Otherwise, among the Qingyi disciples, there are still several good hands, how could they only refine a few mediocre elixirs?"

  Danyu Daoist let out a cold snort, glaring at Danying Daoist and saying: "The Hundred Treasures Rainbow Cloud Robe, that's clearly a woman's magical robe! Elder brother, you bring it out to use as a prize, how can we possibly compete with dignity?"

  "Huh? Is that so? That's a woman's Taoist robe?" Dan Jing Daoren fell silent for a moment, then coughed softly and said: "This is unexpected. Hmm, can't let Lin Xiao just stay in the wilderness to cultivate like this...Hmm, Dan Yu Shidi, take out that set of 'Wind Fire Flag Gate' you got last time and put it on Lin Xiao."

  Dan Yu Dao Ren took a step back, looking at Dan Jing Dao Ren with annoyance: "Brother, didn't you also treasure a 'Mustard Seed Picture of the World'? Why don't you take it out?"

  Dan Jing Dao Ren's eyes bulged, and he said fiercely: "I am the master! You are my junior brother! I am the leader of the sect, you are just an elder under me! 'Feng Huo Qi Men', will you take it out or not? If not, in one year and seven months, the thousand-year-old 'Long Yan Guo' on the extreme north ice fire mountain will be ripe. You can bring your few disciples to guard it on the ice fire mountain!"

  Tan Yu Dao Ren quickly pulled out a small flag from his sleeve, about the size of an eight-sided palm print, with red and green colors. He glared at Tan Jing Dao Ren in anger, muttering: "You're the leader, I won't argue with you!"

  Several other elder members of the Luodan Dao stood by with their hands behind their backs, looking very relaxed and carefree as they pointed at a large tree that had just been shattered by thunder. They couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "Indeed it's a rare sight! Our mountain protection array has kept out the thunderstorms and snow for so long, we haven't seen such a rare sight in ages!"

  Tan Yu Dao Ren shot a few of his fellow disciples a glance that was extremely resentful and bitter, but everyone pretended not to see the gloomy look in his eyes.

  Dan Jing Dao Ren grasped the Wind and Fire Flag Gate, spitting a mouthful of true energy onto it. The small flag gates instantly transformed into cyan and red energies that flew out of his hands, arranging themselves into a strange array diagram beside Lin Xiao. The array diagram seized the momentum of heaven and earth, with the southern part forming a Vermilion Bird shape. A green dragon formed from a thread of spiritual energy occupied the other three directions. Green dragons belong to wood, wood generates wind; Vermilion Birds stir fire, flames stirring wildly. Wind and fire converged, a cyan-red colored stormy flame burst forth over ten feet high. The spiritual energy gathered into a several-meter-long green dragon and Vermilion Bird illusion moved about for a while before slowly retracting into the array diagram.

  The formation's light converged, and the 108 flag gates disappeared into thin air, but a large formation had already protected Lin Xiao tightly.

  Dan Jing Dao Ren looked at Lin Xiao with satisfaction, nodded and said: "Extremely good, with this formation to protect, we don't have to worry about beasts and demons invading. Dan Fu Shu Di, Dan Xia Shi Mei are really muddled, it seems they didn't even teach this child the common sense of cultivating. Hmm, coincidentally, our sect's three most talented disciples were all given to them." Several elders looked at Dan Jing Dao Ren with a strange gaze mixed with disdain, who was the one being muddled? Who gave Huafeng Er, Yao Er and Lin Xiao to Dan Fu Sheng and Dan Xia?

  "Hey!" Dan Jing exclaimed, "Two years, and he's already reached the eighth layer of the True Fire Technique! The sect's grand competition, and he's actually refined a universe-grade dan toxin! This little guy!"

  An old man also looked at Lin Xiao for a few eyes, and Dan Jing Daoren was the same, shaking his head at the same time, turning around to leave.

  A sudden change occurred at this moment. A huge thunderbolt, thousands of miles long, swept across the sky, and a bright light burst forth from the distant horizon. Dan Feng Dao Ren and his companions, with their profound cultivation, vaguely sensed a violent aura stirring in the distance. Dan Feng Dao Ren exclaimed: "Heavenly Thunder Punishing Evil? What kind of demon could trigger such a massive change in heaven and earth?! This...this..." The massive thunderbolt swept across the sky, and large chunks of lightning fragments fell down with a loud crackling sound, filling the entire sky with blinding purple lightning.

  This extremely powerful and unparalleled pure Yang heavenly thunder almost shattered all the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, even the protective array of Huichun Valley couldn't isolate the impact of this heavenly thunder on the spiritual energy. The countless disciples in Huichun Valley who were cultivating suddenly felt their surrounding spiritual energy become chaotic, various kinds of spiritual energy chaotically surged in and out of their bodies, hundreds of disciples lost control of their inner breath and spat blood as they fell to the ground, all suffering from severe internal injuries.

  Lin Xiao was even more disturbed. The heavenly thunder almost passed over his head, the deafening sound shook his heart and made him gasp for breath. Luckily, he had that magical lotus seed to supplement his foundation, his mind was extremely stable, and he forcibly controlled the flow of true yuan in his body. However, as the thunderbolt streaked across the sky, the surrounding spiritual energy was like hundreds of tornadoes sweeping by, causing chaos. This affected Lin Xiao's internal fire true yuan, which churned wildly and uncontrollably, surging towards the meridians throughout his body.

  "Ah!" Lin Xiao spat out a mouthful of blood, which was mixed with threads of crimson flames. He opened his eyes in shock and saw the tail of the massive heavenly thunderbolt sweeping over his head, with a chunk of thunder fire debris the size of a water vat hurtling towards him. As he watched the approaching chunk of thunder fire debris wrapped in purple lightning and heavenly fire, Lin Xiao let out a loud shriek: "I'm done for!"

  A gust of wild wind rose from the ground, a cyan dragon several meters long wrapped in thick winds of over ten meters high rushed into the sky. A soft hum came, an eight-foot-high vermilion bird brought up dozens of meters of scarlet flames and also flew up. The wind dragon and firebird revolved in the air, condensed into a thick root with a diameter of several meters of cyan and red energy, carrying shocking winds and fire sounds towards that piece of thunder and fire debris.

  They hastily turned around, suddenly seeing the fragment of thunder and fire entwined with purple electricity hurtling towards Lin Xiao, and were so frightened that their souls flew out. At the same time, they cried out: "Not good!" Several old Daoists simultaneously raised their large sleeves, not having time to recite incantations or perform rituals, relying solely on a mouthful of pure true yuan to dance their sleeves like windmills, stirring up an iron-plated gale that rolled towards the thunder and fire fragment. 'Humm', several senior Dan Tao Daoists joined forces, unleashing a formless and colorless gale that scraped the ground flat by three inches, carrying countless dust particles rushing towards the sky.

  The Fenghuo Flag Gate transformed into a green dragon and a vermilion bird, advancing to meet the fragment of thunder fire. A loud explosion occurred, and the originally violent and unstable thunder fire fragment exploded into a sky full of stars. Each star was like an arrow shot from a powerful crossbow, whistling as it shot towards the ground, but happened to collide head-on with the sleeve wind slapped out by Danfeng Dao Ren and several others.

  A loud "Boom" shook the air, hundreds of purple sparks flew up into the sky like fireflies gathering and dispersing. Just then, a spark about the size of a green bean happened to drill through a gap in the sleeve wind of Dan Feng Dao Ren and stuck to Lin Xiao's palm. With a "Sizzle", Lin Xiao's left hand immediately turned a deep purple red, as if it had been splashed with boiling oil. A stream of purple flame that made Lin Xiao's soul tremble surged into his body with a "Whoosh".

  Zi Lei Tian Huo, this is the most pure and powerful flame between heaven and earth. It only appears when a demon that cannot be tolerated by heaven and earth emerges in the mortal world, and it is naturally generated by heaven and earth to subdue the demon. The small ball of heavenly fire stuck on Lin Xiang's palm, which was about the size of a green bean, contained enough firepower to burn a large mountain into ashes.

  Lin Xiao's body transmitted a loud "whooshing" sound of fierce flames burning, his Li Huo True Yuan collided with that bit of heavenly fire, just like a pool of oil encountering a spark, and it spontaneously ignited. A purple-red flame erupted from Lin Xiao's body, his clothes were burned clean, and all the hair on his body was reduced to a wisp of green smoke. Lin Xiao only felt his body floating as if it would take only an instant for his Li Huo True Yuan to be incinerated, and then his body would also turn into a wisp of green smoke and disperse.

  "Ah~~~~~" Lin Xiao suddenly let out a unwilling roar! His eyes shot out two beams of intense light, his entire body's potential burst forth at this moment.

  A viscous, oily seven-colored spiritual energy surged out of every part of Lin Xiao's body, joyfully welcoming the surging purple heavenly fire. The extraordinary lotus seed contained a strange spiritual energy that nourished Lin Xiao's body, and whenever the heavenly fire destroyed one place, it would repair another, achieving a perfect balance between destruction and rebirth within his body.

  Endless pain and endless comfort, two extreme opposing feelings flooded Lin Xiao's mind. The intense pain almost made Lin Xiao faint, but the unparalleled comfort and pleasure nearly made him hum with delight. Two completely different feelings stimulated Lin Xiao's spirit simultaneously, causing his spirit to grow continuously.

  Faintly, a mysterious pattern appeared before Lin Xiao's eyes. A black fish and a white fish were connected head to tail, slowly rotating in the void. Profound and subtle, it was an indescribable wonder that made Lin Xiao feel a surge of melancholy tears. The intense pain, the sudden joy, seemed to make Lin Xiao realize many things in an instant, yet at the same time, he seemed to have realized nothing at all.

  His flesh was strengthened in each destruction and rebirth, Lin Xiao's dantian, meridians, and major acupoints became increasingly tough and wide. His skeleton, muscles, and meridians all showed a hint of luster. The heavenly fire refined his body, this was an opportunity that the great gods of ancient times who were about to ascend to immortality had dreamed of, but without extremely strong cultivation, it was impossible to resist the invasion of the heavenly fire, even if you were a golden immortal, you would be reduced to a puddle of pulp. Only Lin Xiao, fortunately, obtained half of the extraordinary lotus seed from Yaoyue, and relied on that mysterious and infinite spiritual energy to barely survive the great opportunity and calamity of the heavenly fire refining his body.

  However, just as he was immersed in that wonderful and unprecedented pattern, he vaguely felt that this pattern had an extraordinary origin, as if it contained all the mysteries of the universe. Suddenly, he felt a severe hunger, so hungry that he almost wanted to grab a handful of stones and stuff them into his belly. As his spirit was slowly growing, Lin Xiao suddenly woke up from that wonderful and indescribable realm, and the vague pattern in front of him suddenly disappeared. Lin Xiao exclaimed in surprise: "So hungry!"

  The heavenly fire tempered his body, consuming a huge amount of energy, and the thin spiritual energy between heaven and earth today was simply not enough to support Lin Xiao.

  Lin Xiao only felt his body shrinking thread by thread, as if he was transforming from a young man to an infant. In shock, Lin Xiao's mind suddenly reached out and pulled out all the spirit stones he had been rewarded this time from his wristband, opened his mouth according to the Dahluo Dan Dao secret method, and took a fierce breath towards those spirit stones.

  A purple flame burst out of Lin Xiao's mouth, like a large hand grasping those spirit stones. In just three to five breaths' time, all the fire-attribute spiritual energy within the spirit stones was sucked dry by Lin Xiao's body. This plundering absorption method made the elders present, including Dan Jing Dao Ren, stare with their eyes wide open and almost scream out loud.

  A massive amount of fiery spiritual energy entered his body, immediately transformed by the purple-red heavenly fire. A thick, purple-red true yuan filled Lin Xiao's dantian, rapidly rotating along a mysterious trajectory similar to the black and white fish from earlier. In the vortex of true yuan, faintly visible were threads of purple lightning flashing within. The speed of the vortex's rotation grew faster and faster, gradually absorbing the purple heavenly fire and the seven-colored spiritual energy into its depths.

  Lin Xiao Meng suddenly opened his eyes and shouted in a shrill voice: "Save me! I'm so hungry, I'm going to starve to death!"

  Dan Jing Dao Ren, Dan Yu Dao Ren and other elders looked at each other, and suddenly a sharp light flashed in Dan Jing Dao Ren's eyes. With an unbearable pain, he let out a loud cry to the sky: "Forget it! Today, I'll ruin my reputation once and for all. Let's see if this kid can survive the heavenly fire refining his body without dying, and what kind of monster he will become!"

  He tapped his wrist where a storage ring was, and Dan Jing Dao Ren pulled out 100 high-quality spirit stones of various attributes, 500 medium-quality spirit stones, and 1,000 low-quality spirit stones. He gritted his teeth and coldly snorted: "Hungry? Let's see how big your appetite is! Hungry, huh? I'll fulfill your wish, Master!"

  With a flick of his hand, 1,600 spirit stones surged forward like a tidal wave towards Lin Xiang. Dan Yu Dao Ren shouted: "Senior brother, these are the spirit stones prepared for the grand opening of the mountain gate, to recruit new disciples!"

  "Newly opened mountain gate recruitment quota for disciples will be reduced by half! I'll naturally go and tell Master Shu, Uncle Zu and the others about this matter."

  One thousand six hundred pieces of spiritual stone flew to Lin Xiao's side, wrapping him around. Lin Xiao instinctively opened his big mouth and spat out a purple flame, which wrapped the one thousand six hundred pieces of spiritual stone in a bundle. Various colored lights flew out from the spiritual stones and poured into Lin Xiao's body.

  Lin Xiao's body suddenly shook violently, and all his muscles sank downwards, instantly turning him into a skeletal figure with only skin and bones. Immediately afterwards, his flesh bulged outwards again, restoring his original appearance.

  As such, the transformation had changed nine times, Lin Xiao suddenly looked up at the sky and shouted: "It's going to burst, it's going to explode! Master Uncle, my dantian is going to explode!"

  "Roar!", a loud bellow shook the sky, Lin Xiao's roar shattered the nearby rocks into powder. A circle of white aura swept rapidly in all directions, and the elders of Daluo Dan Dao, including Dan Yu Dao Ren, were shocked pale, exclaiming: "Heavens! 'True Form Nine Transformations', he's going to form a Golden Elixir!"

  "Danfeng Daoist jumped up and down, yelling: "Daniu~~~~ Danxia~~~~ have you taught your baby how to refine the elixir?"

  "Slap!" Dan Jing shouted, slapping himself in the face. He cursed loudly: "Nonsense! Lin Xian has only been cultivating for two years, how could he possibly learn the incantation of forming a dan? Fellow disciples, hurry up! Lin Xian's spiritual power is not enough, once he forms a dan, demons will surely arise. Quickly prepare large quantities of 'Clear Spirit Dan', 'Calm Spirit Dan', 'Gather Spirit Dan', 'Nourish Spirit Dan', 'Transform Spirit Dan' and 'Return Spirit Dan'! Even if we use dan medicine to fill the gap, I, the poor daoist... today, I will still produce an 18-year-old golden dan master!"

  "Ho ho! When the time comes, I'll take an 18-year-old Golden Elixir expert out with me, and we'll show off the face of our Da Luo Dan Dao... Hehehe!" The Taoist priest Dan Ying suddenly burst into a mysterious and sinister laugh!

  The fluctuation of the heavenly spiritual energy triggered by Lin Xiao was really too intense, and all that could be heard were the sounds of "whooshing" from all directions. Endless streams of elderly Daoist priests wearing light purple or purple robes emerged, riding their swords to arrive on the scene. These elderly priests had also heard Dan Feng's command, and without saying a word, they took out large quantities of medicine bottles from their storage rings and pendants.

  The attack method of Da Luo Dan Dao is extremely poor, the sword-controlling heart method is extremely poor, and the incantation for refining magic treasures is also extremely poor. However, they have a lot of elixirs!

  It was just a matter of time before various elixirs that were highly effective in resisting the Heart Devil, repairing the heart and spirit, nourishing the original spirit, and enhancing spiritual cultivation appeared before Dan Feng Dao Ren, piling up into a small mountain. With so many elixirs, not to mention Lin Xiao who had some foundation in cultivation, even an ordinary person who didn't understand cultivation at all could successfully defend against the Heart Devil that would appear when forming the Golden Elixir by taking these thousands of elixir pills.

  The Dan Jing Daoist saw that the helpers were getting more and more, and he was so excited that he jumped up and down, shouting: "This kid actually absorbed a thread of purple thunder fire, and suddenly wanted to form a golden elixir! I don't know what's going on. It seems that his vitality has been severely damaged, so prepare all kinds of nourishing pills for him! Hmph! Twenty years ago, the Yuan Sect had a 57-year-old disciple who formed a golden elixir, and they boasted about it for twenty years. Now our Da Luo Dan Dao has produced an 18-year-old disciple who formed a golden elixir, can't we brag about it for two thousand years?"

  Dan Jing Dao Ren burst out laughing, his eyelashes almost popping open. He exclaimed repeatedly: "Remember! When speaking to outsiders, we must unify our tone and say that the elixir of our Da Luo Dan Dao is incredibly amazing, and it was only through the elixir that Lin Xiao was transformed from an ordinary person into a Golden Elixir stage cultivator. Do you understand? This will be extremely beneficial for the future business of our Da Luo Dan Dao! We absolutely cannot say that he achieved this by absorbing the Purple Thunder Fire!"

  Very advertising conscious Dan Jing Dao people carefully warned the brothers, the old men of Da Luo Dan Dao also nodded desperately, they naturally knew the key.

  As Lin Xiao's face suddenly flashed a golden light, Danfeng Daoist hastily shouted and forcibly imprinted a formula for refining the elixir into Lin Xiao's mind.

  However, Lin Xiao didn't need the formula for forming the elixir at all. The purple true yuan vortex in his dantian had naturally followed the trajectory of the yin-yang fish he had just seen and automatically entered the process of forming the elixir.

  A thread of extremely fine purple electric light appeared in the center of the true yuan vortex, and a large amount of purple true yuan was absorbed by that thread of electric light, gradually condensing into a tiny purple-golden green bean-sized golden elixir. The golden elixir continuously sucked in the surrounding purple true yuan, its volume constantly expanding. Lin Xiao's hands were pressed on his dantian, and the muscles on his face twitched repeatedly, as his body was surrounded by a thick layer of purple flames about a foot thick, and the spiritual energy around him was continuously drawn into his body, causing him to slowly levitate, floating in mid-air three feet off the ground.

  Another flash of sword light, and a figure clad in a five-colored misty cloud-like robe, resplendent as a rainbow, flew in on the Wind Flower Sword. Danxia's face was all smiles as she approached. From afar, Danxia smiled and said, "Elder Master, what brings you here today?"

  Lightly landing on the ground, Danxia was about to greet her fellow disciples all around when she suddenly caught sight of Lin Xiao floating in mid-air. Danxia's eyes widened instantly, and a series of shrill cries burst out from her throat: "Heavens! This little guy, has he...has he formed his dan?! Waaah, how can I still be his master?!"

  Hua Feng'er's eyes were also twitching, her fingers trembling as she suddenly muttered in a low, indignant voice: "Heaven is unfair! My junior brother is only in his teens, with skin as tender and smooth as a young girl's! And yet he's already formed his elixir! Doesn't that mean his looks will be preserved for hundreds of years?! Heaven! Forming an elixir should be me, Hua Feng'er! Look at the wrinkles around my eyes!"

  Her eyes welled up with tears as she rubbed the wrinkles at the corner of her eye with her fingertips, and Huafeng stammered: "Heaven is unfair! I, Huafeng, have cultivated for a hundred years, but... Waaahhh, Master, I won't live either~~~" She threw herself into Danxia's arms and began to sob pitifully.

  "Whoosh~~~", the purple flames on Lin Xiao's body suddenly surged up to a height of several meters, and the intense heat forced even Dan Feng Dao Ren to retreat three steps. If it were ordinary flames, these elderly members of the Da Luo Dan Tao wouldn't have been concerned - after all, which one of them hadn't dealt with the furnace fires for hundreds of years? They already had ample experience with fire. But the purple flames surrounding Lin Xiao's body were the unparalleled Purple Thunder Fire of the Tyrant Path - how could they dare to casually touch it?

  Although most of the power of the Purple Thunder Fire was used to temper Lin Xiao's body, only a weak breath of Heavenly Fire remained in Lin Xiao's Golden Elixir. However, the Heavenly Fire is still the Heavenly Fire, just like how a tiger is still a tiger, even if it's just a newborn tiger, it's still a tiger!

  His body's vital energy was retracted, his height increased by another inch, and his appearance became several points more resolute. Lin Xiao slowly stretched out his body and floated down to the ground.

  Dazed, Lin Xiao opened his eyes and glanced around, gently shaking his body. He felt a clarity throughout his entire being, as if there was not a single impurity left, perfect like a top-grade crystal. With just a slight intake of breath, he felt the true energy coursing through his limbs and bones, unobstructed and unrestrained. The smooth and refreshing sensation moved Lin Xiao to tears.

  Dan Jing Dao Ren stared blankly at the hundreds of large and small medicine bottles in front of him, suddenly shrieking: "Lin Xiao, how come you didn't get disturbed by the heart demon?"

  Lin looked at Dan Jingdao with a bewildered expression and asked in surprise: "Master Shifu, what is heart demon?"

  The elders of the Da Luo Tian Dao sect had their eyes wide open, and they looked at Lin Xiao in confusion, not knowing what was going on. The fact that there were no heart demons during the formation of the elixir went against the common sense of the cultivation world!

  Danxia coldly hummed, "A group of old fools, what emerged from Xiang'er's body is, if I'm not mistaken, the Purple Thunder Heavenly Fire? Under the Purple Thunder Heavenly Fire, even the demonic spirits outside the realm were refined, let alone one's own heart demon? However, Xiang'er, how did the Purple Thunder Heavenly Fire emerge from your body?"

  "Pah!", Dan Jing Dao Ren slapped his own forehead again, and suddenly enlightened, he said: "Ah, I was too anxious, the Purple Thunder Fire is the most capable of subduing the Demon Head, let alone a small Heart Devil."

  At this point, Dan Jing Daoren couldn't help but look worriedly at the direction of the distant place where the thunderbolt had struck, furrowing his brow and saying: "What kind of monstrous demon has appeared on that side to actually trigger a heavenly anomaly? Brother Dan Yu, quickly inform Yuan Zong and all the major Orthodox sects about this matter, and ask them to dispatch high-ranking experts to come and investigate clearly."

  Tan Yu Dao Ren responded with a sound and hastily returned to Hui Chun Valley.

  In the Hui Chun Valley, within a radius of 30,000 miles, it was all the traditional sphere of influence of the Da Luo Dan Dao. The place where the thunderbolt struck that day seemed to be just over 10,000 miles away. Suddenly, a powerful demon appeared above his head, and regardless of whether it was killed by the thunderbolt or not, the fact that the demon had appeared on the territory of the Da Luo Dan Dao made the people of the Dan Jing Dao extremely cautious.

  Suddenly, Hua Feng'er said with a sly tone: "Younger brother, please put on your clothes. Although your current physique is not bad, it's still not good to be naked in front of the seniors of our sect, right?" After finishing speaking, Hua Feng'er also gave Lin Xiao a piercing glance with her mysterious eyes.

  Lin Xiao suddenly came to his senses. He let out a cry of surprise and frantically tried to retrieve the spare clothes from his wristlet, but the wristlets on his left wrist had all been melted by the fire that day, leaving only a small residue stuck to his skin.

  Danxia smiled with ill intent, her eyes gleaming as she gazed at the disheveled Lin Xiao. She said with a smile: "Xiao'er, I have an extra set of female Daoist robes here, you can wear them for now... Ah, this is great! I, Danxia, have finally found a good disciple! You've only been cultivating for two years and already formed a Golden Elixir, just like me! Tsk tsk, isn't this saying that I'm stupid? It took me over 70 years to form a Golden Elixir back then, what a foolish thing to do!"

  Danxia's hand had an additional set of pale purple women's Taoist robes, lightly hooked on her fingers and swaying back and forth.

  Lin Xiao pitifully hugged his lower body and crouched on the ground, looking at Dan Jingdao and other masters with a begging expression like a small dog. He didn't dare to look at Dan Xia and Hua Feng'er again, these two women were now full of resentment, and it would be strange if they didn't torture him to death.

  However, Dan Jing Dao Ren was very unchivalrous and pretended not to see Lin Xiao's pleading gaze, patted his butt, set up his cloud head and floated away.

  The other elders of the Luodan Dao also smiled and set off with their swords, no one willing to give Lin Xiao a spare robe.

  Lin Xiao looked at Dan Xia with a deep sense of resentment and grievance.

  Danxia grinned strangely at Lin Xiao, his eyes rolling around, seemingly considering some kind of wicked plan.
