The surrounding powerful figures immediately perked up.

Gong Lin's crimson gaze swept over Li Zi, then silently moved away.

His hand gripping the sword was a little unsteady.

[Yes... The current situation isn't a cultivation issue, it's mainly a psychological one. If we could give her some stimulation, it would be better.]

Li Zi, [Would forcibly waking her from her seclusion have any effect?]

[That would be too damaging to her body, and might even cause her to Qi Deviation. The risk is too great. System suggests that someone outside create some noise to stimulate her and make her feel a sense of reality. For example, have her loved one or the person she hates shouting outside.]

All the powerful figures turned their gazes to Gong Lin.

Gong Lin was sweating profusely.

He was withdrawn and silent. In the past, when faced with Huo Fei's passionate love, he didn't know how to respond and habitually avoided it.

He later regretted his cowardly behavior for centuries.

Now, for his beloved, he is willing to say many things to wake her up.

Gong Lin took a deep breath and said to the other elders, "I'll try to wake her up. You can all go back now."

Suddenly, they heard Li Zi voice.

Chapter 30 Wen Yun's cry was so sweet, and it was even a breathy sound.

[That's easy. Bring Wen Yun here, hang him where Huo Fei is in seclusion, and whip him every day until he screams at the top of his lungs.]

System, [Host, this is a brilliant idea! Many feelings in this world fade with time, but hatred doesn't. Especially since Huo Fei suffers daily torment, that hatred must have seeped into her very bones. Wen Yun's screams are much more pleasant to hear than Gong Lin's cold voice.]

The First Elder glanced at Gong Lin in silence.

"I think it would be more effective to bring Wen Yun along for smoking."

Agreed.

I second that.

The First Elder patted Gong Lin on the shoulder, "Fortunately, you kept this little girl here; otherwise, the Sect Master might not have escaped this calamity."

With a wave of his hand, he immediately said to Li Zi, "Little girl, starting tomorrow—no, starting today—our Flame Hall's Gravity Body Tempering Pavilion will be open to you without time limit. You can use it as much as you like, for as long as you wish."

Wen Yun Technique with the system and inwardly chuckling, Li Zi, "!!"

No, why is that?

Why are they suddenly being so nice to her? She felt a little guilty.

She was quite frightened and quickly waved her hands, "No, no..."

Something unusual must be going on.

She's just here to join in the fun.

Although she had discussed Huo Fei's situation with the system in her mind, she hadn't said anything yet.

[System, I'm starting to panic. These guys from the Flame Hall seem to have ill intentions. Could they also be eyeing my bones?]

The system replied, "[Probably not. The people in the Flame Hall are of decent character, and their Sect is quite wealthy. Your Divine Bone can't even compare to Huo Fei's cultivation aptitude. What would they want from you?]"

Fearing that Li Zi would continue to speculate, the Second Elder stepped forward with a smile.

"Miss Li, our Sect and the Spirit Sword Sect have some history. As an honored guest, we naturally have to treat you with courtesy. Don't worry, our Sect wouldn't dare to provoke that madman Sect Master Jiang."

Li Zi nodded blankly, "Uh..."

Don't know.

Li Zi a dry laugh, "Your Sect is really hospitable."

I don't understand, but I respect it.

Huo Rui put one arm around Li Zi's shoulder. "Come on, Xiao Zi, I'll take you to the Gravity Body Tempering Pavilion first."

Li Zi, "Ah... but, Senior Huo Fei..."

"It's alright, the elders will make their own decision."

Li Zi thus bewildered and led to the entrance of the Body Tempering Pavilion.

During this time, several Direct Disciple elders came to greet her.

These people were very enthusiastic towards her.

Li Zi moved by the hospitality shown to these elders 'Direct Disciple, whose minimum Cultivation was at least the Golden Core Stage.

That evening, Li Zi entered the Gravity Body Tempering Pavilion to cultivate.

The hall here is very spacious, with a total of ten floors. Each floor exudes the pressure of powerful figures, and the higher the floor, the stronger the pressure.

Cultivating in an extreme environment filled with the pressure of powerful figures increases the pressure but also accelerates the cultivation speed.

Huo Rui explained to her, "This tower was originally left behind by a High Antiquity powerhouse before his ascension. It is said to be made of Outer-Heaven Meteorite, a rare find in the world. Outer Sect disciples can only cultivate in this tower for one hour a day, and inner disciple for two hours. But you can stay inside all day."

"This is a sacred cultivation ground that countless powerful individuals dream of; Xiao Zi, you must seize this opportunity."

Li Zi.

"I will try my best."

Huo Rui smiled and ruffled her hair. "With your current Cultivation, you can cultivate on the First Floor. I'll go to the Fourth Floor."

Huo Li Zi led Huo Rui to the entrance of a Stone Chamber and then left.

Upon entering the Stone Chamber, in just an instant, it felt as if a mountain was pressing down on my head, and my entire body, flesh and bones, was being suppressed and forced to fall downwards.

Li Zi groan and knelt directly on the ground, the sound of his bones creaking under the strain.

The stone door behind them closed automatically.

Li Zi collapsed to the ground, "My whole body aches and hurts, like I've run ten 800-meter races."

She struggled to sit cross-legged and Cultivation Method Circulation.

The Spiritual Power circulated within the body at a snail's pace. Under such overwhelming pressure, the Spiritual Power flowed cautiously through the Meridians.

The absorbing power at the Acupoints seemed to solidify, and time itself seemed to freeze.

The system suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "[Host, just now, the elders of the Flame Hall brought Wen Yun out of the Hall of Samsara, along with some instruments of torture, seemingly intending to punish Wen Yun at the Flame Hall.]"
