The seeds of the Karma Fire Red Lotus were only the size of a little fingernail, round and with a hard shell. Apart from the red color, they were no different from ordinary lotus seeds.
Gao Xuan could only vaguely sense that there was powerful energy in the lotus seeds, but he couldn't tell exactly how strong it was.
Out of the intuition of a strong man, he could feel that this thing was very dangerous.
The reminder from the six-winged cicada was just one more confirmation.
Facing the old turtle's ridicule, Gao Xuan nodded confidently: "I am a little scared. If you swallow this thing, you will die."
The old turtle sighed, "Nothing good comes for free in this world. Even ordinary steel needs to be tempered thousands of times before it can become a good piece of steel. If you want to forge an indestructible golden body, you must of course go through thousands of tribulations and hardships!"
“That’s true.”
Gao Xuan is such a great man, there is no way he could be easily fooled by the old turtle.
To forge an indestructible golden body certainly requires tempering and honing, but this is a gradual process.
The seeds of the Karma Fire Red Lotus are obviously a powerful medicine. If it can be digested, it is of course a magical pill. If it cannot be digested, it is a deadly poison.
Gao Xuan was naturally unwilling to take risks at this point, especially since he knew nothing about the Karma Fire Red Lotus Seeds.
What are the effects? What are the consequences? How to solve the problems
The old turtle had no plan at all. He just took out a lotus seed and wanted him to eat it. Is he that stupid
The thing is good, but there are skills in how to use it.
It's like someone giving you a nuclear bomb. No matter how useful it is, you can't detonate it in your own home.
The so-called good and bad are actually relative.
Gao Xuan asked: "What should I do if I can't digest the power of the lotus seeds?"
"Well, it's not impossible."
The old turtle said: "If you want to kill the Chakravartin with your strength, you will always have to take risks."
"I can take risks, but I need to know where the danger is. I can't just rush in because you point a way. If I die, I can only blame myself for being stupid."
Seeing Gao Xuan's determination, the old turtle felt a little helpless: "I have lived for billions of years and have a long life. I am not in a hurry. You are the one who is in a hurry."
He said: "I have no problem waiting for hundreds of thousands of years, can you afford to wait?"
Gao Xuan laughed. The more the old turtle said this, the less he believed it. If the other party was not in a hurry, why would they use such a radical method
The old turtle thought for a moment and said, "I have a pool of Nine Nether Ice Spring here. The Nine Nether Ice Spring is the most yin water in the world. The Karma Fire Red Lotus is the most yang in the world. The intersection of yin and yang will always allow you to refine a golden body."
The old turtle pointed and a pool of water appeared in front of Gao Xuan. The water was icy cold, clear and pure.
Although Gao Xuan did not recognize the Nine Nether Ice Spring, he could sense the energy changes in the water.
That’s right, the lake water and the karmic fire red lotus are subtly restrained.
He did not completely believe in the old turtle, but he made judgments about the two magical objects based on his experience and wisdom.
On the other hand, he also has the six-winged cicada.
As the first spiritual creature, the six-winged cicada was completely integrated with his soul and had the sharpest sense of danger.
Of course, the Six-Winged Heavenly Cicada failed once in front of the Red Lotus of Karma Fire. Gao Xuan still remembered that incident vividly.
From then on, Gao Xuan knew that the six-winged cicada was not omnipotent. It could not sense every danger in advance.
However, this time the six-winged cicada sensed that the lotus seed was in danger immediately, so it was quite reliable.
Gao Xuan weighed the pros and cons and felt that there was no harm in giving it a try. With the Nine Nether Ice Spring, he could at least withstand the energy of the Karma Fire Red Lotus Seed.
In fact, he could hold on even without the Nine Nether Ice Spring. If it really didn't work, he could use the Hongyi Sword to transform the power of the Karma Fire Red Lotus Seed.
However, in front of the old turtle, Gao Xuan still habitually reserved his strength.
Don't be fooled by the fact that the old turtle chatted with him so well and looked frank. This old man has lived for billions of years, who knows what he is planning.
If you really trust someone after just one chat, then if you get killed by them you can only blame yourself for being stupid.
Gao Xuan asked the old turtle: "If I can't hold on any longer, will you help me?"
The old turtle sighed and said, "Am I taking out my treasure just to trick you? Of course I will try my best. But the power of the karmic fire comes from within, so I can't help you much."
"If you have any other treasures, why don't you keep them now?" Gao Xuan still wanted to try his best to squeeze out some benefits.
The old turtle has lived for so long, even if he picked up some scraps, he would still be rich. He couldn't compare.
“It’s really gone.”
The old turtle was a little helpless in the face of Gao Xuan's suspicious eyes, "How about I find a grandson to make soup for you? Or some turtle essence?"
"Forget it, forget it. It's fine this way."
Gao Xuan shook his hands repeatedly. The old turtle was obviously unhappy. He was talking too much.
Gao Xuan was also very agile and he directly swallowed the lotus seeds of the Karma Fire Red Lotus.
The lotus seeds rolled into Gao Xuan's stomach and immediately exploded into countless flames.
In an instant, flames were spewing out of every pore of Gao Xuan, his internal organs, bones, blood and flesh were all burning, and his entire body turned into a man of fire.
Gao Xuan was unable to suppress the intense fire transformed from the lotus seeds. Fortunately, his physical fitness had reached 48 points, so he did not turn into ashes in an instant.
Looking at Gao Xuan who had completely turned into a fire man, the old turtle's soul retreated a distance.
With his strength, he must stay away from the karmic fire.
The old turtle looked at the burning Gao Xuan, and a bit of admiration appeared in his old eyes.
The fire of karma burns the body and soul, which is the most cruel punishment for any life.
Gao Xuan did not lose his feeling. He just relied on his strong soul and will to endure the severe pain brought by the karma fire.
Moreover, Gao Xuan wisely did not choose to jump into the Nine Nether Ice Spring immediately.
Although jumping in at this time could quickly reduce the power of the wicked fire, it was not the best time.
Just like forging fine steel, it requires process steps such as normalizing, annealing, quenching, and tempering.
How to forge good steel depends entirely on the master's control of the temperature.
Gao Xuan is now in a state of whole body tempering, and the fire inside the lotus seed has just erupted. It will take some time before it reaches its maximum power.
Jumping into the Nine Nether Ice Spring at this time would reduce the power of the karmic fire. Although it could quickly reduce the pain, it was not the best choice for Gao Xuan himself.
If you want to increase your strength quickly, you always have to endure hardships.
The old turtle agreed with Gao Xuan's approach. At the same time, he also had some respect for Gao Xuan's strong will and soul.
The pain of the karmic fire burning the soul and body is definitely the nightmare of all living beings. Even among gods, not many can withstand the burning of karmic fire.
Just like the Chakravartin, if he swallows a lotus seed of the karmic fire red lotus, he will definitely be turned into ashes.
Unfortunately, the Chakravartin is not a fool. How could he swallow such a dangerous thing
The old turtle has been thinking about the red spider lily of the Chakravartin for tens of thousands of years, but he knows that he is no match for the Chakravartin, so he can only hide in the depths of the underworld and endure.
Now that Gao Xuan has finally shown up, of course he has to give it a try.
Even if it doesn't work, it will only cost me a lotus seed of the Karma Fire Red Lotus. Although this item is a treasure, few people can use it. It's not a pity to lose it.
As the flames on Gao Xuan's body grew stronger and stronger, Gao Xuan's handsome face was twisted into a ball of blazing flames.
The old turtle was also somewhat moved. At this moment, the power of the karma fire had reached its extreme. He even saw Gao Xuan's soul twisting and roaring in the karma fire.
This is not ridiculous. Under extreme pain, the soul and body are about to turn into ashes, and Gao Xuan is not screaming wildly at the soul level. This strong self-control makes the old turtle a little awed.
The old turtle even thought that it would be terrible if this man didn't die, but it seemed not bad if he died just like that.
On the other hand, he strongly hoped that Gao Xuan could hold on. Only a strong Gao Xuan would have a chance to kill the Wheel King.
The old turtle was in a complicated mood. He wanted Gao Xuan to succeed but was also afraid that Gao Xuan would lose control.
By the time Gao Xuan was completely transformed, his entire body had turned into a ball of blazing flames, completely losing his basic human form.
Gao Xuancai rushed into the Jiuyou Ice Spring, and a white mist rose into the sky.
The high temperature of the karmic fire and the extreme yin of the Nine Nether Ice Spring collided violently, triggering the rising mist.
In the heavy fog, the old turtle could only vaguely see Gao Xuan's body re-condensing into shape, but the karmic fire in his body had not been completely extinguished.
Then, Gao Xuan jumped out again.
Without the suppression of the Nine Nether Ice Spring, the karmic fire once again intensified. It didn't take long for Gao Xuan to turn into a ball of flames again. Then, Gao Xuan once again stepped into the Nine Nether Ice Spring.
This was repeated nine times, and most of the Nine Nether Ice Spring was consumed.
The last time, Gao Xuan opened his mouth and swallowed all the Nine Nether Ice Spring into his body.
Then countless white steam came out of his pores. But he had already returned to his physical form.
Compared with before, Gao Xuan has not changed much, except that his skin is a little smoother, his eyes are a little brighter, and his temperament seems to be above everything.
With the old turtle's eyesight, he couldn't tell Gao Xuan's depth at this moment, nor could he determine whether Gao Xuan had entered the realm of Hunyuan Heyi.
Although the old turtle's body was extremely strong, it was unable to achieve unity with its spirit and soul because its body was too strong.
Therefore, even though he had the power to crush the Chakravartin, he did not dare to confront him.
Because the Chakravartin did not need to compete with him in strength. He could immediately turn the wheel of life and death to turn his soul from life to death.
Gao Xuan's physical strength is weak, which makes it easier for him to achieve the unity of Hun Yuan.
The unity of the primordial essence is to make the body, soul, and consciousness completely integrated into one, so that no external object can shake it. Only in this way can one resist the wheel of life and death, the order of rebirth, and Mengpo soup.
The unity of Hun Yuan only makes Gao Xuan's power more unified and stronger, but it cannot make him invincible.
Because of the difference in life forms, the old turtle is still confident that he can use his strength to overwhelm Gao Xuan. This is the foundation of cooperation.
The old turtle asked tentatively, "Have you achieved the unity of Hun Yuan?"
Gao Xuan shook his head: "It's hard to say."
After this tempering, Gao Xuan's physique, strength and agility increased from forty-eight to fifty points.
Although it was only a two-point improvement, his body had undergone a qualitative change. His spirit, body, and mind were highly unified.
However, this unification is a bit inconsistent after all, that is, the six-winged cicada.
No matter how the six-winged cicada is integrated, it is ultimately an external object.
Even though Gao Xuan's soul and body were in harmony and unity, they were still a little bit away from being able to reach the six-winged celestial cicada.
Because of the six-winged celestial cicada, Gao Xuan's spiritual power increased by three points, reaching forty-eight points.
However, compared with physique, strength, and agility, he was still lacking in two aspects. The unbalanced attributes also prevented him from truly achieving unity.
This is probably what is called success or failure.
The key is that the soul and the six-winged celestial cicada are completely integrated, and even Gao Xuan’s ability cannot separate the two.
However, Gao Xuan felt that it was enough.
The lotus seeds of the Karma Fire Red Lotus not only contain endless karmic fire, but also endless vitality deep within the destructive karmic fire.
This power born from death is the key to Gao Xuan's evolution.
In fact, the three-dimensional attributes of the body reached fifty points, allowing Gao Xuan to truly step into the realm of gods.
That’s right, this level is the power of God.
Gao Xuan clenched his fists slightly. The endless power rippling in his body made him feel that he could easily tear apart the spatial barrier of the Yellow Springs Realm and easily smash the old turtle to pieces for soup.
"Well, I think I overestimated myself..."
Gao Xuan immediately adjusted his view. The old turtle in front of him should be taller than him in terms of physical strength, and much taller than him...
Gao Xuan smiled at the old turtle and said proudly, "Let's go and kill the Wheel King!"
