Once the refinement stopped, the vortex vanished. Xu Yi suddenly realized that the surging Immortal Spirit Power was nowhere near enough to withstand the vast power of the Fire Element Seed. As the Fire Element Seed's power surged through his body, his entire network of meridians was crushed inch by inch.
Just as disaster seemed imminent, the torrential heat reached the other end of the Fire Element Seed's power. The two forces collided, yet somehow reached a delicate balance.
It was thanks to this strange turn of events that Xu Yi hadn't exploded and died. Only the three Shaoyang meridians had been destroyed.
The moment Xu Yi fell out of his body, Desolate Charm immediately drove the nearly collapsed corpse aura into him.
As soon as Xu Yi's corpse aura returned to its place, all kinds of astonishing changes began to unfold.
The instant the corpse aura entered him, the surging Immortal Spirit Power and the vast, barely sustainable power of the Fire Element Seed found an outlet. Both forces rushed toward the corpse aura.
As the Immortal Spirit Power enveloped the corpse aura, the latter—on the verge of dispersing—recovered at once. Xu Yi, who had fallen into a deep sleep, woke up.
He was horrified to discover that his body was undergoing a frenzied transformation.
The newly refined power of the Fire Element Seed turned into a torrential flood and surged toward the ball of flame within his corpse aura. In an instant, the original flame became a blazing sun.
Under the searing heat of that terrifying Fire Element power, the corpse aura churned and shrank by more than half in the blink of an eye. Just as it was about to be scorched dry by the blazing sun, Immortal Spirit Power flowed through it, restoring it once more.
