Chapter 128

"Several times more painful than the Body-Washing Spirit Marrow?" Li Li Li Yuan was stunned for a moment. Is it that ruthless?

Involuntarily.

Some parts of Li Li Li Yuan's body were already aching faintly; the Body-Washing Spirit Marrow was already terrifying enough.

"The Body-Washing Spirit Marrow is for external application, while this is for internal consumption. Although both are for washing the marrow, there will be slight differences," Vice Vice Dean Hai said calmly: "I have prepared the items; whether you use them or not is your own business."

"Once you've decided, tell me," Vice Vice Dean Hai was very calm.

He only thought for three seconds.

"Vice Vice Dean, I am willing," Li Li Li Yuan gritted his teeth. Isn't it just several times more pain?

He had already endured the Body-Washing Spirit Marrow five times in a month.

What was there to be afraid of?

If he wanted to improve his strength faster, how could there be no price to pay?

"Don't you want to consider it carefully?"

Vice Vice Dean Hai smiled: "I know your willpower is very strong and should be comparable to a Source Martial Artist, but this kind of pain... is not so easy to endure."

"No need to consider it, I'll do it," Li Li Li Yuan gritted his teeth.

"Fine, I will hand the items to Vice Vice Dean Li, and you will take them under his guidance each time," Vice Vice Dean Hai said calmly: "Alright, go out."

"When your physical fitness reaches level 15, if you plan to venture into the star realms for tempering, come see me again."

"Yes." Li Li Li Yuan's heart stirred.

Come see Vice Vice Dean Hai again before venturing into life-and-death situations?

After Li Li Li Yuan went downstairs to return to his residence, Li Yang and Vice Vice Xu Yuanzhang walked into the martial arts room.

"Vice Vice Dean Hai." Li Yang and Vice Vice Xu Yuanzhang were both very respectful.

"I have prepared the Hundred Marrow Spirit Wither for Li Li Li Yuan, twenty units in total, enough for him to cultivate for 20 months," Vice Vice Dean Hai said calmly: "Li Yang, I'm handing it to you. Supervise him each time he cultivates to prevent any accidents."

"Hundred Marrow Spirit Wither?" Li Yang and Vice Vice Xu Yuanzhang were both stunned.

They both suspected they had misheard.

This stuff, for Li Li Li Yuan to use?

"Vice Vice Dean, is it really Hundred Marrow Spirit Wither?" Li Yang couldn't help but ask: "Can Li Li Li Yuan withstand it?"

"Hundred Marrow Spirit Wither, paired with High Source Spirit Spring, has a very astonishing effect," Vice Vice Dean Hai said calmly: "Even treasures like Star Earth Marrow Crystals cannot match its effect in a short period."

"The only drawback is that it's a bit painful."

"But I tested him just now; this kid's willpower is indeed not bad. Let's just treat it as a tempering of his willpower," Vice Vice Dean Hai said nonchalantly.

"What? You were the ones who applied for me to train him, and now you have objections?" Vice Vice Dean Hai showed a half-smile.

Li Yang and Vice Vice Xu Yuanzhang felt a chill in their hearts and quickly shook their heads.

In the eyes of ordinary students, they were high-ranking and powerful vice-deans.

But in front of Vice Vice Dean Hai, they were like students.

"Additionally, temporarily raise Li Li Li Yuan's contract level to SS-level," Vice Vice Dean Hai said calmly: "Every month, his free resource quota will be increased from 2 million to 4 million Blue Star coins."

"If there is still a gap in cultivation resources, let him find a way himself."

"Yes." Li Yang nodded.

"Go out."

"When Li Li Li Yuan reaches level 15 and is about to go to the star realms for life-and-death ventures, let me know," Vice Vice Dean Hai closed his eyes.

Li Yang's eyes brightened slightly, and he immediately understood.

Vice Vice Dean Hai must be planning to give Li Li Li Yuan some life-saving items at that time.

Li Yang and Vice Vice Xu Yuanzhang exited the office and walked downstairs.

"Hundred Marrow Spirit Wither, does it have to be that ruthless?"

Vice Vice Xu Yuanzhang shook her head gently: "I've only seen it once; that Source Martial Artist was on the verge of suicide."

"I heard before that when torturing some captured alien races, they use Hundred Marrow Spirit Wither, forcing the other party to beg for death, and they will spit out any information," Vice Vice Xu Yuanzhang shook her head and sighed: "Vice Vice Dean Hai is still the same, too ruthless."

"If he isn't ruthless, how can he establish himself?"

"Before I recommended Li Li Li Yuan to him, I was mentally prepared," Vice Vice Dean Li smiled: "Sister, haven't you heard the rumors about Vice Vice Dean Hai hunting down that black dragon outside?"

"What rumors?" Vice Vice Xu Yuanzhang asked, puzzled.

"I heard."

"Back then, Vice Vice Dean Hai had a carefully built villa on a small island in the South Sea that was washed away by a tsunami caused by the black dragon. It wasn't originally Vice Vice Dean Hai who was sent, but Vice Vice Dean Hai applied for it himself... He hunted it for days and nights, and actually rushed into the deep sea to slaughter that black dragon, skinning it and pulling its tendons," Vice Vice Dean Li finished the gossip in one breath.

"That ruthless?" Vice Vice Xu Yuanzhang was a bit surprised; she had only been at the academy for a few years.

She hadn't interacted much with Vice Vice Dean Hai.

She hadn't heard of it before.

"Of course, I've been following Vice Vice Dean Hai for nearly twenty years; what don't I know?" Li Yang sighed with emotion: "Li Li Li Yuan... I will keep a close eye on him."

"If he really can't take it at that time, we'll stop for a bit," Li Yang said.

"Mm." Vice Vice Xu Yuanzhang nodded.

Not long after.

After seeing Vice Vice Xu Yuanzhang off, Li Yang was preparing to find Li Li Li Yuan.

"Li Yang, you made up the story quite well," a cold voice suddenly rang in Li Yang's mind: "Come here for a moment and repeat it to me again."

"Vice Vice Dean Hai." Li Yang was startled.

Over the next few days, Li Li Li Yuan continued his training as planned.

The entire Kunlun Martial University gradually returned to calm.

August 8th, 10:00 AM.

In Li Li Li Yuan's villa, in the underground martial arts room, all the lights were turned on.

Li Yang and Li Li Li Yuan stood in the center.

In Li Yang's hand was a small black bottle; the bottle was pitch black, and nothing could be seen from the outside.

"So much time has passed."

"The medicinal effect of your Body-Washing Spirit Marrow should have mostly faded," Li Yang said solemnly: "Today, I'll let you try the Hundred Marrow Spirit Wither."

"Teacher, why do we have to be in the underground martial arts room?" Li Li Li Yuan couldn't help but ask: "And you even made me move everything away."

"You'll know in a moment," Li Yang said.

Li Li Li Yuan nodded.

"I'll ask you one last time, do you really want to use it?" Li Yang said.

"Teacher, let's try it," Li Li Li Yuan smiled: "If I can't withstand it, I will naturally give up later."

"Fine."

Li Yang stopped trying to dissuade him and handed the small black bottle to Li Li Li Yuan: "One unit has ten small pills."

"You can eat one first to try."

"If you can withstand it, eat the remaining nine within ten minutes," Li Yang said.

Li Li Li Yuan accepted it, opened the bottle, and poured them into his hand.

They were black, like calcium tablets, and emitted a strange odor.

"Hundred Marrow Spirit Wither? I thought it was a liquid," Li Li Li Yuan thought to himself.

These days, Li Li Li Yuan had long been mentally prepared, so he didn't hesitate anymore, picked up one, and put it directly into his mouth.

He didn't feel anything.

He took a sip of the water Li Yang handed him and finally swallowed it into his stomach.

For the first three seconds, Li Li Li Yuan still didn't feel anything.

Gradually.

As a fourth-stage high-level expert, Li Li Li Yuan looked within himself and could feel strands of strange power rapidly spreading from his chest and abdomen to every part of his body.

It was tingling and numb.

It was a bit itchy!

It was a bit painful!

"Is that it?" Li Li Li Yuan's willpower was incredibly strong; he easily withstood it, stopped thinking about it, and swallowed all the remaining nine black pills in his hand.

Li Yang opened his mouth slightly but didn't dissuade him.

Rapidly.

"Hmm?" Li Li Li Yuan gradually noticed something was wrong. These strands of strange power seemed endless, becoming stronger and stronger, completely permeating every part of his body.

"This kind of pain." Li Li Li Yuan clenched his fists, his whole body trembling faintly.

It felt like red fire ants were tearing at the flesh of his wounds.

It felt like razor blades were repeatedly scraping against his bones.

And... a faint sadness... it was much more intense than the pain of the Body-Washing Spirit Marrow.

Moreover.

As time passed, the pain Li Li Li Yuan was enduring was constantly increasing.

His complexion changed completely.

"Ah!" Li Li Li Yuan finally couldn't withstand it anymore. No longer caring that Li Yang was by his side, he suddenly curled up on the ground.

It hurts!!

Pain deep into the bone marrow!! It was much stronger than the pain of five Body-Washing Spirit Marrow sessions.

Li Li Li Yuan seemed to hear the sound of his bone marrow being extracted; his muscles were twitching.

His whole body turned bright red, as if burned by fire, and sweat seeped out like blood plasma.

"Ah, ah!" Li Li Li Yuan's face was completely distorted; he desperately wanted to endure it.

But it was just too painful.

This was the power contained in the Hundred Marrow Spirit Wither fully erupting!!

It was washing away all the 'impurities' in his body in every aspect; all impurities that hindered the absorption of Source Power were being washed away.

This pain seemed to be seeping into Li Li Li Yuan's soul.

It hurts!

"It hurts!" Li Li Li Yuan lay on the ground, wailing. He had completely lost his composure and was rolling around frantically, the veins on his neck fully exposed.

Suddenly.

Li Li Li Yuan swung his arm and actually slapped his own head directly.

It was just too painful! In this instant, Li Li Li Yuan only wanted to commit suicide.

In his consciousness, only pain remained.

At this moment, he only wanted to end this pain completely.

Just at this moment.

"Whoosh!" A pair of hands reached out like lightning and restrained Li Li Li Yuan's hands.

Stopping his action.

"Ah, ah, ah!" Li Li Li Yuan struggled frantically, but what kind of strength did Li Yang have? He easily suppressed Li Li Li Yuan.

It was just.

Looking at Li Li Li Yuan's appearance, Li Yang also felt a pang of pain in his heart.

With Li Li Li Yuan's strong willpower, he was actually tortured to the point of wanting to commit suicide.

One can imagine to what extent the pain of the Hundred Marrow Spirit Wither reached.

A full half-hour.

The effect of the Hundred Marrow Spirit Wither gradually faded, and Li Li Li Yuan's wailing gradually eased. A thin layer of impurities appeared on the surface of his body.

But Li Li Li Yuan's spirit also seemed to be on the verge of collapse, and he completely lost consciousness.

It was unclear whether he had fainted or fallen asleep.

"No wonder almost no one uses this stuff to cultivate," Li Yang, who was on the side, finally let go of Li Li Li Yuan's hands and sighed secretly: "Vice Vice Dean Hai is indeed ruthless enough. He even asked me to supervise; did he think from the very beginning that Li Li Li Yuan would want to commit suicide?"
