"I'm ready!"
"Then... shall we begin?"
"Yes!"
In Li Xian's cave abode in the Overlord Divine Hall, Lingxu had fully readied herself.
Holding the Chaos Wonder that could serve as the primary material for a Chaos Supreme Treasure, she activated her spirituality, enveloped it, and began refining it into her body.
How profound and vast were the energy and laws contained within a wonder capable of serving as the primary material for a Chaos Supreme Treasure?
They far exceeded Lingxu's comprehension.
As she began refining it...
Pain immediately appeared in her eyes.
Yet she held on, constantly pushing her spirituality into those laws and energies. Even as the backlash from those laws and energies continuously annihilated her spiritual fluctuations, she did not hesitate in the slightest.
She would penetrate them first and worry about the rest later!
The sight made Li Xian glance at her.
"Every breakthrough was this difficult for you, and you endured it every time?"
He asked.
"No, before... when I couldn't endure it, I would suppress my consciousness and enter a mechanical flow state, until my consciousness went out, using instinct to refine it. But this time..."
Lingxu gritted her teeth. "I want to test my limits."
Hearing this, Li Xian said nothing more.
He observed attentively.
Even as the pain Lingxu faced during this process grew more and more intense, he did not intervene at all.
As her friend, he would respect all of Lingxu's choices.
Even if the road ahead would lead her to death...
He would counsel her, but ultimately...
He would also respect her decision to walk toward death.
That was precisely the case now.
Even though the pain Lingxu faced had reached the limit of what she could bear, Li Xian merely watched, paying attention to every minute change in her.
