1489 It Has Been Twenty Years, Why Is He Still Alive? A Flawless Physique

The world was delighted that the madman had fallen.

After being free of Chu Kuangren's suppression, the younger generation of Prodigies started emerging one after another to stir up drama.

At that moment, while the Liuding Heavenly Flame was burning fiercely in the Bagua Furnace, Chu Kuangren mobilized two treasures, namely the Divine Genesis Source Orb and Black Annihilation Lotus, to defend the Heavenly Flame.

Unfortunately, he could not hold on for much longer.

"I must find a way to leave here as soon as possible," mumbled Chu Kuangren.

Although he had the Indestructible Physique, which kept his physical body alive as long as he had the will to live, he did not want his time to be wasted here.

Hence, he formed a sword hand sign to gather his Immortal Core. A surge of sword qi shot across the sky and hit the Bagua Furnace's wall. With a bang, his Immortal Core exploded, but the Bagua Furnace remained unscathed.

"This Bagua Furnace is Laojun's Alchemy Godly Weapon, and it is indestructible. I can't possibly break it with my current cultivation base."

Then, he took out a golden pill, the Ninth Rebirth Golden Pill that he had obtained from the Bagua Furnace.

"Those great ones are really generous for making the Ninth Rebirth Golden Pill as bait. Lil Ai, analyze for me."

"Sure… The Ninth Rebirth Golden Pill is half-refined. It can greatly improve one's cultivation after consuming…"

Chu Kuangren was stunned for a moment. "A half-refined Ninth Rebirth Golden Pill, huh? No wonder they were willing to take it out. Those great ones are really stingy."

There were different types of medicinal pills.

Fully-refined medicinal pills were complete, whereas half-refined medicinal pills were incomplete, and their effects were not as good as fully-refined medicinal pills.

Having said that, the Ninth Rebirth Golden Pill's value was extraordinary and could level up Chu Kuangren's cultivation.

However, according to Chu Kuangren's estimation, it would still be difficult for him to break through the Bagua Furnace after he broke through to the Ninth-grade Gilded Immortal Realm.

"The most crucial thing to do now is to resist this burning Liuding Heavenly Flame," Chu Kuangren said while looking at the flames surrounding him.

The Bagua Furnace formed the Liuding Heavenly Flame by transforming the heavenly and earthly spiritual qi. As long as there was endless spiritual qi of heaven and earth in the outside world, the Liuding Heavenly Flame would burn until the contents of the furnace were completely refined.

"Wait. The Heavenly Flame…"

As if he had thought of something, he took out a crimson-colored crystal.

Countless mysterious characters were engraved on the crystal, and it recorded a body-strengthening technique called the Drought Demon True Body!

"The Drought Demon True Body allows one to combine and merge countless flames in the world, as well as strengthen one's physical body. If I use the Liuding Heavenly Flame to strengthen my physical body, the effects must be great…"

Chu Kuangren's eyes lit up.

At that thought, he began to gain insight into the Drought Demon True Body. Even though the Drought Demon True Body was a top-notched body-strengthening technique, it did not take long for Chu Kuangren to gain insights into it.

On that day, Chu Kuangren raised his hand and grabbed a ball of Liuding Heavenly Flame to mobilize the Drought Demon True Body.

Then, he absorbed the Heavenly Flame into his body to strengthen his body.

On his body, a firelight flashed, and he immediately absorbed all the Heavenly Flame.

"This Heavenly Flame is far from enough!"

Chu Kuangren put the Black Annihilation Lotus away.

In an instant, the Heavenly Flame, which had penetrated through the Divine Genesis Source Orb but was isolated by the Black Annihilation Lotus, completely engulfed him.

At that moment, even his physical body, which possessed the Gilded Trait, was burning.

However, as soon as the Indestructible Physique was activated, his burning physical body quickly recovered.

With that, Chu Kuangren immediately mobilized the Drought Demon True Body.

Boom!

As the surrounding flames roared and entered his body, they destroyed his insides.

All his internal organs and bones were gradually burned to cinders by the Heavenly Flame.

However, Chu Kuangren slowly recovered with the Indestructible Physique's help.

The Heavenly Flame and Indestructible Physique competed with each other until the former was destroyed, while the latter was revived.

Chu Kuangren's expression remained unchanged throughout the process. He mobilized his Drought Demon True Body and refined the Heavenly Flame to cultivate his physique with his full strength.

As time went by, the damage that the Heavenly Flame brought to Chu Kuangren weakened, and his physical body gradually grew stronger.

If a Gilded Immortal's physical body had nine grades, and Chu Kuangren's physical body was previously in second or third grade, he had now achieved at least Higher Third Grade!

On top of that, his strength was still improving.

"This Bagua Furnace is a great place for cultivation!"

Chu Kuangren was amazed as he opened his eyes and sensed his skyrocketed raw physical strength.

As long as the Liuding Heavenly Flame existed, he would have endless resources to strengthen his body!

Following that, he withdrew the Divine Genesis Source Orb and exposed himself to the Liuding Heavenly Flame. Soon, more ferocious flames hit him, but he absorbed them without any fear!

He realized that the Liuding Heavenly Flame contained a large amount of pill qi.

Therefore, not only would absorbing the Heavenly Flame strengthen his physical body, but it would also improve his cultivation!

"Since this Bagua Furnace is an Alchemy Godly Weapon, it's normal for it to contain pill qi. However, this an unexpected gain for me."

Those great ones who plotted against Chu Kuangren would never have imagined that the Bagua Furnace, a killing weapon, would turn out to be Chu Kuangren's best cultivation aid.

Chu Kuangren focused on refining the Heavenly Flame.

Meanwhile, in a certain dimension in the Bagua Furnace, Eminent Monk Guhe, who had turned into the furnace's item sprite, was immersed in countless alchemy knowledge and could not extricate himself!

He had no idea what condition Chu Kaungren was in now.

In his opinion, with the Bagua Furnace's refining mechanism, Chu Kuangren could not possibly escape alive even though Chu Kuangren possessed excellent capabilities.

"That's too mysterious. So this is the refining method of the Ninth Rebirth Golden Pill."

"I see…"

Eminent Monk Guhe looked at the countless alchemy knowledge with a fanatical expression.

His research took twenty years, but to him, those twenty years passed by in the blink of an eye.

While he was immersed in the sea of alchemy knowledge, an unusual fluctuation suddenly occurred in the Bagua Furnace.

"What's going on?"

Eminent Monk Guhe was stunned for a moment. Then, his consciousness emerged from the mysterious dimension and began to inspect the situation inside the furnace.

Soon after, he noticed a gigantic fireball suspended in the center of the furnace, and it was absorbing the surrounding Heavenly Flame.

Inside the fireball, he could vaguely see a figure.

Upon noticing the person, Eminent Monk Guhe was confused.

What was the matter?

Following that, he thought of something and could not believe his eyes. "H-How is this possible?!"

He knew there was someone in the Bagua Furnace because the person was trapped in it twenty years ago.

In his opinion, that person should have been burned to ashes long ago by the Heavenly Flame.

However, how was that person still alive?!

While Eminent Monk Guhe was shocked and puzzled, the gigantic fireball released a pounding sound.

It was the sound of a heartbeat!

However, the heartbeat sound was dull and contained a mysterious rhythm.

Every beat brought pressure to Eminent Monk Guhe's consciousness.

After all, he was a Gilded Immortal before he turned into an item sprite!

Now, the person's heartbeat was oppressing his consciousness. What exactly had happened to the person?!

Amidst the Eminent Monk Guhe's confusion, the fireball shrank rapidly like lightning before Chu Kuangren sucked it into his body. Then, a flawless Immortal body appeared!
