Chapter 76: Arrival

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

This coolness was very faint at first. It was as if a cool breeze had brushed past his face in the heat, and then it was back to the heat waves. It was also as if he was standing still for a moment after a long journey to catch his breath before setting off again.

The fact was that Pei Ling was in such extreme pain that he could not even sense it.

But soon, the cool feeling began to spread.

The others could see the azure halo slowly collapsing from Pei Ling’s dantian after covering his body for a long time.

When Ouyang Xianxing saw this, she became anxious again.

He had already endured the most difficult and painful stage. The next step was to truly absorb the fire and completely refine the Cold Marrow Fire into his body.

Whether this mission would succeed or not, it was already at the final juncture.

If he succeeded, everyone would be happy. If he failed, he would be reduced to ashes.

Many cultivators who boasted that their Dao hearts were firm had fallen at the last moment.

In short, the reward for absorbing fire into the body was extremely high, but it was also extremely risky. Until it was completely over, the outcome could not be determined.

Fortunately, Pei Ling’s expression was still calm. This made Ouyang Xianxing feel much less uneasy.

Fang Ji had the same thought. He sighed in his heart and let go of his faint jealousy. He took a step forward and whispered to Ouyang Xianxing, “Don’t worry, Senior Sister. I’ll keep an eye on Junior Brother Pei’s condition.”

“Shut up.” Ouyang Xianxing frowned and scolded in a low voice, “Junior Brother Pei has yet to finish refining the immortal fire. Don’t disturb him.”

“…” Fang Ji did not dare to be angry after being embarrassed. He smiled apologetically and said, “Yes, Senior Sister.”

Outside the array, Xue Ying was filled with jealousy and hatred. If not for the fact that he was restrained by the Bone Flower and could not move or even make a sound, he would have roared hysterically, Why? Why?! Why!!

I entered the sect at a young age and had a firm Dao heart.

All these years, I’d been obsessed with cultivation. I’d never slacked off at all, but after reaching the Foundation Establishment realm, I hadn’t improved at all!

Not only did I see Zheng Jingshan and the other juniors surpass me one after another, now Pei Ling is old enough to be my grandson. He’s so talented.

He was not born yet when I risked my life for the Double Mulberry Faction!

But now, with his natural talent, he’s already superior to me when he has just entered the sect…

Now, even absorbing fire into his body is smooth sailing. His future is limitless.

The heavens are so unfair!

I didn’t mean to betray the Double Mulberry Faction. It’s just that I no longer held out hope for a long time. That’s why I came up with this plan. Why did you let me come to this!

Xue Ying’s eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at the figure surrounded by an azure halo.

He swore countless resentful oaths in his heart. If Pei Ling failed at this moment and turned to ashes on the spot, he would have no regrets even if he was enslaved by demons for life!

However, no matter how angry and aggrieved Xue Ying felt, he could only watch as the halo on Pei Ling’s body slowly extinguished at a calm and relaxed speed.

Of course, he knew that this was not a failure. On the contrary, it was a sign that Pei Ling was about to completely refine the Cold Marrow Fire and fuse it into his body.

When all the azure light around Pei Ling’s body was extinguished, he would look like an ordinary person. At that time, the Cold Marrow Fire would become one with his body and increase his cultivation level. During this process, the characteristics of the innate immortal fire could burn the impurities in his body and cleanse his body.

Moreover, due to the characteristics of the Cold Marrow Fire, it could also give Pei Ling’s bone marrow a special transformation, making him stronger than ordinary cultivators of the same level.

With such a foundation, he would naturally be in the lead.

Back then, Miao Chengyang and Zheng Jingshan both had similar encounters. From there, they quickly rose up among the tens of thousands of outer sect disciples of the Deep Sea Sect and obtained the opportunity to enter the inner sect. They even went on to become the inner sect masters…

I can’t accept this! Xue Ying roared in his heart. He wished he could walk out of the Bone Flower immediately and change the illusion array to kill Pei Ling on the spot!

Huh? Ouyang Xianxing sensed the abnormality in the Bone Flower and frowned slightly. She casually formed a hand seal, and the blood on her fingertips flashed and disappeared. At the same time, outside the array, Xue Ying’s eyes widened. Because his tongue and lips were sealed, he could not speak. There was only a purplish-black blood clot flowing down the white bone chain.

On the armor formed by the Bone Flower, a white bone chain suddenly pierced through his chest.

Ouyang Xianxing’s cold voice sounded in Xue Ying’s ears. “Behave yourself.”

Lowly servant, this lowly servant! Xue Ying almost fainted from anger. He felt great hatred in his heart as he thought to himself, I say, this lowly servant usually looks noble and cold. Why is she protecting Pei Ling without a care this time? She must have secretly flirted with the Branch Master and found out about Pei Ling’s background in advance. Therefore, along the way, she lets me and Fang Ji mock him and plan to secretly kill him, but she pretends to be a good person… Why isn’t the Clear River Faction here yet?

Could it be that Branch Master Miao is afraid of core disciple Li, so he doesn’t plan to send anyone over?

At the thought of this possibility, Xue Ying almost died on the spot. No, no, no. Although core disciple Li’s status is high, core disciple Zhou is on the same level as her… Core disciple Zhou values Branch Master Miao.

With core disciple Zhou’s endorsement, Branch Master Miao has always doted on Miao Cheng’an. How could he let go of this opportunity to avenge his younger brother?

They must have been delayed… Yes, I didn’t leave a trail since the Yin-Yang Basin. They must be searching everywhere. They will definitely find me… Definitely!

That was what he thought, but when he saw that more than half of the azure halo had been extinguished and there was no movement in the surroundings, Xue Ying could not help but feel despair. Could it be that I’m down on my luck and I have no hope of achieving the Great Dao?

Otherwise, how could I have endured for so many years in the Double Mulberry Faction, forsaking darkness for light, only to end up in this situation?

In fact, Pei Ling’s current situation was not easy!

After the coolness in the depths of his bone marrow spread, the pain was indeed greatly reduced.

Pei Ling secretly heaved a sigh of relief at first, thinking that he had finally survived that miserable experience.

Unexpectedly, what followed was not pain, but a numbing itch that was even more unbearable than pain.

The itch that came from his bones almost drove him crazy!

If his body was under his control now, he would have long pulled out the Life-Extinguishing Blade and stabbed it into his flesh, forcefully digging out all his bones.

However, under the system’s control, no matter how he screamed, wailed, and begged in his mind, the system was indifferent and focused on cultivating.

As the numbness became more and more intense, the pores all over Pei Ling’s body opened wide, and impurities that were like mud began to gush out.

Ouyang Xianxing and Fang Ji hurriedly held their breaths. The entire trapping array was gradually filled with a stench.

At the same time, Miao Chengyang, who did not find them in the Secluded Mushroom Cave and Insect Mountain, stepped into the Skeletal Crane Swamp.

Not long after he entered the swamp, he keenly sensed the cold aura around him. It was much stronger than before.

In the gray swamp, there were even some traces of frost and snow on the branches and leaves of moss and reeds.

As expected, it’s here! Miao Chengyang frowned for a moment and brushed off a blade of grass that he had picked up to take a closer look. He sneered and instantly increased his speed. Little bastard, just you wait!

Not far from him, in the gray fog unique to the Skeletal Crane Swamp, a pair of black eyes seemed to be deep in thought before disappearing quietly.
