After the initial comfort, Yuyan felt a wave of numbness, as though tens of millions of red ants were crawling through her body. This was followed by a stabbing pain that surged through her entire body in wave after wave like the rising tide, hurting so badly that she nearly cried out.
But she remembered that this was the Beast God Messenger's residence and that she could not disturb the Messenger, so Yuyan bit down hard on her lip.
Sensing that the Marrow Cleansing Pill was slowly cleansing the impurities within Yuyan's body, Bai Qiao said:
"Yuyan, sit in the ice barrel. The ice water will ease the stabbing pain."
Yuyan obediently did as she was told, immediately crouching down in the ice barrel and gritting her teeth as she endured it.
Time passed quickly. By the time Yunxi had finished a pot of Peach Blossom Wine, Yuyan had bitten through her lip. At last, she endured the hardest stage. The impurities in her body were expelled, and the water in the ice barrel turned a foul-smelling black.
Without changing expression, Bai Qiao formed a hand seal and replaced the water with another barrel. Then she drew out a thread of ice-element Immortal Yuan Force and slowly helped Yuyan sort through the power in her body, allowing the energy within her to circulate on its own and eventually enter her inner core.
The instant her power was sorted out, Yuyan was enveloped in white light. Then she transformed into a hundred-meter python patterned in white and gold.
Once Yuyan noticed that her viewpoint had become higher, she excitedly swayed her body and leaped out of the ice barrel that had constrained her massive form. She happily slithered around the courtyard once, then lowered her python head in salute to Yunxi.
