Chapter 1094: Cold Flame Marrow Washing

Just as the great war opened outside Little Extreme Palace, inside the hurricane in the pile of rocks in the Profound Jade Cave, in a purple lotus half a zhang in size, Han Li pinched a magic technique with both hands, and sprayed a wisp of exceptionally slender purple flame from his mouth, injecting it into a giant light ball not far in front of him.

Besides Han Li's Purple Falling Extreme Fire sprayed on it, there were also three wisps of cold flames shot onto it, which were the extreme cold flames sprayed by the old woman and others sitting in other lotus flowers.

It was just that at this moment, the five people, including Han Li, seemed listless, their faces slightly pale.

On the surface of the light ball in the middle of the magic array, lights of various colors flowed, and a figure was faintly sitting inside.

This person was a zhang tall, with an exceptionally tall figure, actually not seeming to be Master Han Li. Looking at his face, he was a cultivator in his thirties, looking like a strong man, but his facial features were very similar to the original Master Han Li, actually seeming as if Master Han Li had become decades younger, suddenly returning to his prime.

This was truly a strange situation.

However, the strong man in front of him was naked on his upper body, which was exceptionally strong. On his shoulders, chest, back of the neck, and lower abdomen, he had silver-shining short blades inserted, deep in, but not a single drop of blood flowed from the wounds.

The most eye-catching thing was not this, but the strong man's eyes were slightly closed, and several light-colored light insects a few inches long were actually using the strong man's body as a nest, continuously drilling in and out through his skin.

Every time a small insect drilled in, the strong man's body would tremble, and a look of pain would appear on his face, as if he were enduring some huge torture.

But if one stared intently, one could discover with surprise that these so-called small insects were actually condensed and transformed from extreme cold flames of various colors. And every time the light insects drilled in and out, their bodies would shrink by a circle.

But when they reached a certain size, the light insects would make a "bang" sound and collapse on their own, turning into nothingness. And a wisp of light flame of the same color would immediately fly out from the light ball outside, condense into another light insect nearby, and then drill into the strong man's body again.

This cycle repeated continuously.

At this time, if a cultivator could see through the strong man's body, they would be surprised to find that in his dantian, a Nascent Soul about three inches tall, resembling the strong man, was pinching a magic technique with both hands, covered in layers of blue ice flames. But the light insects drilling into the body from the outside ignored these blue flames, directly separated the blue flames, drilled into the Nascent Soul's nose, and after a while, drilled out from its mouth, and then drilled out of the strong man's body.

The Nascent Soul was expressionless, but the blue light flames on its body flickered, appearing exceptionally mysterious.

It was unknown how much time had passed, when the strong man's body trembled violently, and he suddenly opened his eyes.

Han Li and the others who were spraying extreme cold flames seemed to have received some signal, and almost at the same time, the magic techniques in their hands changed. The original extreme cold flames rolled back in a reverse shot, and the light lotuses beneath them also collapsed and disappeared at the same time. Subsequently, those who took pills took pills, and those who took spirit stones took spirit stones, all closing their eyes to adjust their breathing.

Such a scene, they had continued for more than ten times in these few days. Each time, it almost emptied their magic power. But fortunately, these people were all wealthy, and under the adjustment of various spirit pills and spirit stones, they could recover to their original state in just half a day.

Seeing Han Li and the others withdraw their cold flames, the strong man in the light ball closed his eyes again, as if he had entered meditation.

Time passed bit by bit, and the old woman actually opened her eyes, looked at the strong man in the light ball, and sighed deeply.

"I really admire Fellow Daoist Han Li, actually being able to endure the pain of five-flame marrow washing. Although the power of the cold flames was deliberately controlled, this kind of feeling is worse than death. It seems Fellow Daoist Han Li must have cultivated some special body-tempering technique. Otherwise, his body would have collapsed long ago. This is not something that can be persisted just by having a strong divine sense."

"Fellow Daoist Long is indeed knowledgeable! Senior Brother Han Li did indeed cultivate a body-tempering secret technique in his early years, and his body's toughness is far superior to ordinary cultivators." The middle-aged man in green robes opened his eyes and smiled slightly.

"That's no wonder. However, we have already used cold flames to wash the marrow for Fellow Daoist Han Li several times, allowing his potential to be fully stimulated. I estimate that whether it is the physical body or the Nascent Soul, it has reached its limit. Now it's just the final breakthrough. Whether it can succeed or not depends on these two days." The gray-robed monk also spoke, looking exceptionally solemn.

"However, the profound jade cold air in the magic array seems somewhat insufficient, and it needs to temporarily stop the magic array to gather some from the outside." Han Li said indifferently from the side.

"Eh! I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Han Li to understand this secret technique to such a degree, even seeing this. That's right, it is indeed necessary to re-gather the surrounding profound jade cold air before the breakthrough." Master Han Li's voice, which had become full of energy, came from the light ball, sounding surprised.

Han Li felt a chill in his heart and turned his head to look.

He saw Master Han Li, who didn't know when he had stood up, his figure slowly rising from the milky white cold light. But the five short blades that had been inserted into his body had disappeared, and there was not a single wound where they had been inserted. Coupled with the faint smile on his face, which was now in his prime, it looked exceptionally strange.

"Nothing, Han Li just guessed it casually." Han Li didn't change his expression, but replied perfunctorily.

"Oh, then Fellow Daoist Han Li has observed until now, I wonder how many chances you think I have to break through the bottleneck this time. Let's see if it differs from what I predicted." Master Han Li picked up a blue robe from his storage bag and put it on, but asked Han Li in a thought-provoking way.

"Fellow Daoist is joking. This secret technique was created by you, Fellow Daoist, so how could I predict it more accurately than you!" Han Li's expression didn't change, but he replied lightly.

Master Han Li laughed, and didn't ask anything else. But while floating in the air, he flicked his ten fingers, and several magic techniques shot out, disappearing into the light curtain around him in a flash.

Instantly, the magic array around him emitted a strange humming sound and stopped at the same time.

The five light pillars disappeared in an instant, and Han Li and the other five floated down from the void at the same time.

And without the light curtain and the hurricane outside, the milky white cold light swept toward everyone again. But the prepared people had their cold flames emerge outside their bodies again, protecting themselves within.

"For the next day, I will slightly modify the magic array and then re-gather some cold air. You fellow daoists take this opportunity to rest well. By this time tomorrow, I hope you fellow daoists will help me break through the bottleneck again. If I can really succeed, I will definitely not break my promise to you fellow daoists." Master Han Li stretched his tall figure, bowed to the others, and said, his expression between his brows quite sincere.

"Fellow Daoist Han Li, just rest assured. Since we have promised this matter, we will definitely do our best. Moreover, if this kind of secret technique is effective against breaking through the Spirit Transformation stage, we might have use for it in the future." The old woman laughed.

"This poor monk, if I can accidentally enter the late Nascent Soul stage, this method might also be an opportunity for us." The gray-robed monk also said unhurriedly.

Han Li nodded slightly and didn't say anything.

But Master Han Li seemed very satisfied with the performance of the three, thanked them loudly, and began to change some of the magic array's variations.

Han Li and the other three returned to the stone room of Sun Essence Stone to rest.

Although they had already recovered their magic power, they had been manipulating the extreme cold flames for several days, and their divine sense was also greatly fatigued, so they indeed needed to rest well.

One day passed very quickly.

When Han Li and the others walked out of the stone room again, Master Han Li had long been meditating in the cold air mass in the magic array. The milky white cold mass was actually several times larger than yesterday.

It seemed he had indeed put his heart into it.

As for the middle-aged man in green robes and Bai Mengmeng, they had also returned shortly after they entered the stone room. Only this Master Han Li had stayed outside the stone room for a whole day and night.

Han Li had just wanted to carefully examine the specific changes in the magic array in front of him when he suddenly heard a surprised sound from the monk, seemingly somewhat surprised and somewhat astonished.

Han Li looked back, only to see the monk looking up at the sky, a strange expression on his face.

His expression moved, and he hurriedly looked up, only to find his expression change slightly.

He saw that the originally faintly visible entrance had disappeared at some unknown time, and the giant tripod used to open the passage had also disappeared.

"Fellow Daoist Han Li, what is the meaning of this?" The old woman saw this scene and couldn't sit still, a look of vigilance appearing on her face.

"Hehe, you fellow daoists don't need to overthink. Because I don't want to be disturbed by any unexpected events during the breakthrough below, I temporarily closed this entrance. And for the breakthrough below, I am afraid I still need to borrow the power of this 'Dry Blue Tripod'." Master Han Li didn't panic at all, but replied with a smile in the cold mass.

"So that's how it is!" The monk and the old woman looked at each other, looking somewhat hesitant, but Han Li narrowed his eyes and stared at the air, remaining silent for a while.

The atmosphere in the cave actually became somewhat tense for a time.

"It seems I didn't consider it well, making you fellow daoists uneasy. Then I won't use this tripod. Although the entrance still needs to be closed temporarily, I will place the Dry Blue Tripod at the entrance. What do you fellow daoists think?" Master Han Li smiled and said to Han Li and the other three with a kind expression.

Subsequently, he flicked his sleeve, and the small tripod wrapped in blue flames flew straight into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it flew to a height of several hundred zhang, hovering under the entrance.

Seeing this scene, Han Li and the other three, although their doubts had not yet been completely dispelled, felt much more at ease seeing the small tripod that could control the entrance move so far away from Master Han Li.

The old woman thought for a while, and finally her expression eased, and she gave a dry laugh:

"Fellow Daoist Han Li is overthinking. How could we three doubt you. It was just that we were strange for a moment. Let's hurry up and help Fellow Daoist Han Li break through the bottleneck!"

After saying this, the old woman didn't wait for others to speak, and flew into the magic array first.
