Chapter 1241: Chapter 1241: Wait, Share the Pain!
When Xuan Wu and Bi Fang arrived, the four guards consciously positioned themselves on all four sides of Beiting Huang, adopting a defensive stance. Even within the space where Yan Ye had set up a formation pattern, under such circumstances, they dared not slack off in the slightest. Their master had already waited ten thousand years, and if anything were to happen to Beiting Huang now, they absolutely could not afford to wait another ten thousand years.
Time ticked away, and before long it was dusk. Wave after wave of divine power that reached the meridians was completely incinerated by the flames. Beiting Huang couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious, but with such matters, anxiety was of no use. The more one worried, the more counterproductive it became. Beiting Huang took a deep breath; her Golden Core was spinning as fast as it could, emitting bursts of pale golden light. Gusts of divine power erupted from within her dantian and surged toward her meridians.
It was like the tides of the ocean flowing in waves through the meridians, the spiritual energy in front was just evaporated when the energy from behind continuously replenished it. Those streams of divine power, as they were scorched by the Nine-Colored Nirvana Fire, caused a heat to rise and made Beiting Huang’s meridians spasm, her whole body trembling.
This kind of pain made the thick-skinned magical beasts and the four guards, who had once experienced nine heavenly tribulations, feel a chilling numbness on their scalps.
The four of them didn’t dare to look at Beiting Huang; their gazes were fixed on Yan Ye, who appeared to have cold, expressionless eyes as he watched Beiting Huang. But no one doubted that Yan Ye’s condition was any better than Beiting Huang’s.
The excruciating pain spread throughout Beiting Huang’s body, and it felt as though countless knives were ferociously hacking in her head. After advancing to Heaven Rank, what one cultivated was divine power, which could also be described as Spiritual Power. It was akin to a person’s Spiritual Power being roasted over a fire, a pain that could not be compared to ordinary physical pain.
Beiting Huang clenched her teeth tightly, striving to keep her mind clear amidst the heart-piercing pain. It was many times more painful than the time she had fallen unconscious and had her Spiritual Power tested in the spiritual world, but she persevered, continuing to stimulate the divine power within her body to flow through her meridians.
Wave after wave of divine power pushed forward the ones in front, replenishing the energy as soon as it was nearly exhausted by the flames. But even so, the divine power at the forefront continuously weakened under the relentless scorching of the Nine-Colored Nirvana Fire.
What Beiting Huang didn’t know was that the Brilliant Holy Pearl, which had been cornered by the Chaos Divine Source, had started acting up again. Seeing the divine power within Beiting Huang’s dantian thinning, it unhesitatingly released a tremendous amount of energy. The Golden Core spun rapidly, drawing in the power released by the Brilliant Holy Pearl, and with Beiting Huang’s urging, it was sent into the meridians.
The burning of the Nine-Colored Nirvana Fire was merciless, and the divine power consumed was astonishing, but fortunately, with the replenishment from the Brilliant Holy Pearl, Beiting Huang temporarily did not feel the pain of energy depletion in her dantian. She continued to endure the intense pain, spurring on wave after wave of divine power to replenish the meridians and to urge the power at the forefront to advance further.
The divine power at the forefront had been replaced countless times, but this did not hinder Beiting Huang’s fusion with the Nine-Colored Nirvana Fire. As long as the first stream of divine power completed a full cycle through the body’s meridians and reached the dantian, Beiting Huang could declare her first victory.
