Chapter 33: A Bit Crossing The Line

  Her body was in tatters, and she was about to take her last breath. Suddenly, a clear, clear, majestic and far-reaching Buddhist sound rang in her mind. Almost at the same time, her consciousness became extremely clear, and those negative emotions that made her dizzy and swollen retreated like a tide. A compassionate and solemn power in her dantian swept through her body. The next second, a rich golden light of Buddhism burst out from her body.

  The skin that was burned and necrotic began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the new skin even had a smooth and moist pearlescent light.

  Yun Shang and Rong Qiheng looked at each other quickly, and saw different degrees of surprise in each other's eyes. She had never felt so clear in her mind. The content of the first chapter of the book "The Body Refining Yuan Zong" given by Rong Qiheng emerged in her mind,

  and she immediately had an idea. Rong Qiheng also tacitly saw what she was thinking, and took back half of the spiritual power attached to her.

  It was equivalent to that she had to endure the high temperature of 600 degrees alone at this moment. Her skin was instantly ulcerated, but it recovered quickly with the help of the Buddha's light.

  But this Buddha light could not relieve her pain. Yun Shang felt that her spirit was divided into two halves. One half was rolling on the ground with teeth bared in pain, while the other half calmly practiced the first stage described in "The Body Refining Yuanzong".

  Originally, skin refining required adding dozens of materials to the water to achieve the effect of removing impurities and catalyzing the skin and flesh, but the Shenshan Ice Spring contained the holy power of ice and snow, which could wash away filth. It was a heavenly treasure and a magical alchemy tool, so it could achieve twice the result with half the effort without the assistance of other medicinal materials.

  Skin refining is about repeatedly refining the skin and flesh, but it must not be without rules, otherwise everyone who wants to refine the body will just be burned by fire, or stew themselves in a big pot.

  She needs to control the spiritual energy in a predetermined order to boil her skin little by little. The process is similar to scraping meat with a knife, and then urge the spiritual energy to restore the damaged skin. Repeat this over and over again until the skin and flesh are refined to the extreme.

  It was unknown how much time had passed, but Yun Shang had actually gotten used to it. 

...

It was not until the first ray of sunlight rose in the sky that Yun Shang felt the strange changes in her body, as if... it worked?

  She blinked, and the next second she was pulled out of the pool. Her long-tight nerves short-circuited for a few seconds, and then suddenly relaxed. She didn't have time to see the man's reaction, and she passed out.

  Rong Qiheng picked her up and looked at the girl's sleeping face. His slightly stiff brows finally relaxed, revealing a faint smile.

*

  This flower does not grow on plateau land.

  This flower grows in lowly wet mud.

  The white lotus is flawless, beautiful but not conspicuous.

  The color changes to red, vulgar but not stained.

  Yun Shang opened her eyes. She had just had a wonderful dream, but she almost forgot it after waking up. She only vaguely remembered that a misty female voice appeared in the dream.

  She pondered these words secretly, not sure what they meant.

  The room was empty.

It seems she was already at her own cave, the girl lay on the bed in a daze for a while. It took her awhile to remembered that she was succeed on refining her skin!

Then Yun Shang remembered the strange golden light of buddhism before. Thinking of buddhism, she checked the mysterious practice she learned before, it seems it was true.

Immortal Brahma Lotus Heart Sutra entered first level, it has effect to convert 35% of all damage received into Buddhist golden light. It currently has the function of rapid healing and purification. It can be used on any creature at a distance with spiritual power as the medium.

She blinked and read these lines back and forth several times. She suppressed the ecstasy in her heart, took out a small knife from the storage bag, and without saying a word, she cut her forearm -

  intact.

  Uh...

  this is a bit embarrassing.

  Yun Shang touched her nose, and the sharp blade left only a faint white mark on the skin after the skin was refined, which was almost the same as being scratched by a fingernail.

  According to the literal meaning, the power of the first level of the Brahma Lotus Heart Sutra should not be underestimated. It is equivalent to her first having a powerful protective net that can be recycled. After offsetting 35% of the damage, all attacks will only have 65% left when they hit her.

  And the converted 35% can be used freely by her, whether it is to save others or herself, the room for operation is really huge. 

  The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. Yun Shang jumped up from the bed, eager to verify her guess.

After the skin refining, there was no obvious change in appearance, but a strange sense of power could be felt.

...

After familiarize herself with her new strength, Yun Shang come to Master's cave again.

"How do you feel after refining your skin?"

  Yun Shang immediately told him the insights the impression and excitement she felt, like a primary school student holding a densely written homework book to ask for credit from the teacher. There was still a faint blush on her fair face after exercise, which made her look lively and cute.

  Rong Qiheng rarely praised people, but the two big words "asking for credit" on the girl's face were too obvious. His handsome face softened slightly and whispered: "Well done."

  The girl smiled immediately, and her watery eyes were full of spring water.

  He continued to tell her the important matters of body refining, gave her precise suggestions for her daytime training, and finally told her to be prepared.

Yun Shang tilted her head slightly, and was listening attentively. She almost took out a small notebook to write it down. Suddenly, a leaf fell on the man's shoulder, and her eyes moved down involuntarily.

  Seeing that the skin on the side of his neck was so white that the pale blue veins could almost be seen, and a small section of jade-colored collarbones was exposed between the neat lapels, such a cold and abstinent dress became sexy because of the yellow waste that suddenly popped up in her mind.

Facing such an abstinent man, it is difficult not to have a blasphemous heart, and Yun Shang is no exception.

  Crazy, crazy -

He's your master, Yun Shang. Rebellious!

  the man stopped talking.

  Yun Shang immediately looked away and smiled to cover up.

  Rong Qiheng looked at her looking around, his eyes deepened, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a hint of intimidation in his gentle and low voice: "Are you distracted? Huh?"

  "No, no!" The girl waved her hand to deny it quickly. Under the man's dark and deep gaze, a blush of shame appeared on her face, "Disciple just a little curious, can the skin after body training be as good as Master's?"

  Weird focus.

  Rong Qiheng was slightly startled, his eyes fell on her face that was so tender that water could drip out of it. For a moment, he felt a little amused. Was this something she needed to care about?

  He shook his head, left a sentence "Come again at midnight" and walked away.

...

There is a small outcrop in Immortal Sword Sect, named Minzhiju, which contains a medium-sized spiritual vein. It is artificially arranged to attract spiritual energy and greatly enhance the efficiency of cultivation. 

  In ordinary sects, hundreds or even thousands of people can only share one medium-sized spiritual vein. Those with high positions and power naturally live in the core of the spiritual vein. Disciples with shallow cultivation should be grateful if they can occupy a place in the outer circle.

  As the number one sect in the world, Immortal Sword Sect has one giant spiritual vein, three large spiritual veins, five medium-sized spiritual veins and many small spiritual veins, which are allocated according to strict rules and regulations. Rong Qiheng lives alone in this Minzhiju, occupying a medium-sized spiritual vein alone. This can be said to be unprecedented, but no one dares to say it is unfair. 

  The core area of ​​the spiritual vein is where the Blue Flame Ice Pool is located.

  Before they even got close, the overwhelming heat was enough to deter people. A white mist gathered beside the clear pool. If someone dared to push aside the mist and peek forward, they would see a man and a woman hugging each other in the pool, their black hair intertwined, as beautiful as a painting.

The process of refining flesh and skin was similar. First, let the blue flame gradually destroy her body, then use the power of the ice spring of the sacred mountain to purify and strengthen her muscles, and finally cooperate with spiritual power and the formula in "Tian Ti Yuan Zong" to give birth to new flesh and skin. In the process of repeated damage and repair, her muscle strength can also continue to increase, and finally gain explosive power, physical fitness, and resistance to blows.

  The only difference from refining skin is that the body parts involved in refining flesh include not only muscles all over the body, but also the internal organs. The process of cultivation is more painful and difficult. If you are not careful, you will die without a complete corpse.

  When she was fished out, the girl was exhausted and turned into a puddle of mud. She nestled in the man's arms and cried. Her finger bones were very thin and tender like green onions. She weakly pulled the white cloak wrapped around them.

  Rong Qiheng come to his disciple's cave, wanted to put her on the bed, but Yun Shang refused to let him. His handsome eyebrows slightly frowned, and there was a little helplessness in his gentle voice, "Don't make trouble, have a good rest."

  The girl shook her head pitifully, "Master, disciple..." In fact she also doesn't know what she want to say. Maybe she just want someone to accompany her in her weakness.

  She didn't know that she looked more charming after refining her body. Her skin was as cold and translucent as a natural snow lotus. The lotus fragrance after tempering her body was not as ostentatious as before, but more quiet and peaceful. It would only inadvertently rush into the brain through the nose, making people unable to let go for a long time.

  Her tears were almost dried up during the body refining, and only the corners of her eyes were still red. Seeing that he didn't respond, her soft and nasal tone seemed particularly pitiful: "Master?" 

  The cold and elegant feeling of her appearance dissipated, and her deliberately weak demeanor made her look like a red plum blossom blooming in the snow, with a little more tender and charming breath that made people love her.

  She probably didn't know how attractive this look was.

  Rong Qiheng's eyes darkened. Just now he realized that he and his disciple a bit crossing the line, even he begun to see her as opposite sex, it's not good!

In fact, Qingmu Daojun is not someone who understands romance at all, but thanks to Mysterious pill Yun Shang eats that's transformed her body to became Charming Body, she was naturally emit fragrance that can bring out desire on people, and make Qingmu Daojun sees her as an opposite sex.

Rong Qiheng immediately cast sleeping spell to his disciple then walked away.
