Liu Xi carefully placed the Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast's monster core and the Bodhisattva Body Transformation Saliva in front of him. His gaze locked onto Xiao Yixian's gray-violet eyes, his tone solemn.
"Xian'er, I'll be invoking three Heavenly Flames to force all the Woeful Poison Body's toxins in your body into one place. It'll be painful—extremely painful—but you must endure it. Otherwise… the next step will be impossible."
Xiao Yixian met his serious gaze and nodded gently. Liu Xi had already risked so much for her—to change the fate that bound her life. If she couldn't withstand even this pain, how could she be worthy of his devotion?
"It'll all pass soon…" Liu Xi said softly, smiling faintly.
He raised both hands. In his left palm, a flame of pure, invisible fire blazed to life—the Fallen Heart Flame.
Over the past two months, the Fallen Heart Flame had completely refined the Demon Poison Spot. The pure Dou Qi it produced was what had allowed Liu Xi to not only reach Dou Zong but climb to the peak of 1-Star Dou Zong in just two months.
In his right hand, a dark-blue flame surged like rolling waves—the Sea Heart Flame, taken from Han Feng.
Then, he opened his mouth and exhaled, summoning a lotus-shaped azure fire—the Green Lotus Core Flame, his first Heavenly Flame.
As the three flames floated before him, Liu Xi's immense Spiritual Power—tinged with a trace of awakened sentience—flowed from his brow, guiding the three flames closer together in a delicate state of "fusion."
This wasn't true fusion but rather a controlled binding. His Spiritual Power acted as adhesive, forcing the three flames to interlock while maintaining their separate essences.
The result was a swirling tri-colored fire—blue, green, and white—its surface radiating terrifying waves of destructive force.
But even within that combined blaze, the three flames remained distinct, separated by Liu Xi's Spiritual Power.
He could command sentient energy—but even he knew that if the Heavenly Flames truly touched, they would devour each other instantly, beyond his control.
He had studied the Flame Mantra for a full year, gaining deep insight into its mysteries, yet this controlled binding was still the limit of what he could achieve.
Holding the tri-colored flame, Liu Xi lifted his head and caught the unwavering determination in Xiao Yixian's eyes. With a flick of his hand, the flame surged forward, rapidly expanding to envelop her entire body.
In an instant, her white robes disintegrated under the heat—reduced to nothing, not even ash.
Her flawless jade-like skin glowed faintly beneath the blazing light, exposed to both the heavens and Liu Xi's gaze.
But Liu Xi did not falter. They had long shared deeper intimacy than this; there was no distraction in his eyes—only resolve.
Within the shroud of flame, Xiao Yixian's Woeful Poison Body finally erupted in full force.
Thick gray poison mist burst violently from her body. Her gray-violet pupils turned pure gray—lifeless, deathly gray.
That gray carried the scent of death itself, devoid of vitality. To any onlooker, it would send a chill straight to the soul.
Her face, already pale, turned colder and more expressionless by the moment, though faint traces of pain flickered between her brows. She was clearly struggling against the deadly backlash of her body's poison.
Liu Xi's eyes softened. He had never allowed her Woeful Poison Body to go out of control before. This would be its first—and last—eruption.
Szzzz—!
The gray poison mist had barely filled the air before it hissed violently, recoiling as though meeting its natural nemesis. Within moments, it rushed back into Xiao Yixian's body.
As the poison re-entered her, her gray pupils deepened into lifeless stillness. Her body twitched and instinctively tried to move—attempting to flee the altar.
But Liu Xi was faster.
In a single motion, he pressed forward, plunging his hand through the three-colored flame to seize her shoulder and pin her down.
"Condense!"
His Spiritual Power erupted, flooding into the tri-colored flames as his voice echoed like thunder.
At once, the flames burst apart into countless smaller wisps, threading through Xiao Yixian's body, chasing down every trace of gray poison gas within her veins.
Those minute threads of flame spread through her entire body, wrapping around every inch of flesh and bone. It was only thanks to Liu Xi's pseudo–Spirit Realm soul that he could control them with such precision.
Under the relentless chase of the three-colored flames, the poison mist began retreating rapidly, driven together toward her lower abdomen.
Every wisp of poison fled before the burning tide, drawn inexorably toward a single point.
Hiss… hiss… hiss…
The faint, sizzling sounds came one after another from deep within Xiao Yixian's body. The poisonous energy gathered, swirling into a thick gray vortex at her abdomen. The tri-colored flames converged around it, forming three fiery rings that bound it tightly in place.
The poisonous vortex pulsed faintly, like a small whirlpool—but one that led straight to death itself.
Even a Dou Zun expert would never dare to touch such venom. Without the protection of his Heavenly Flames, Liu Xi himself would've been reduced to ashes the moment he made contact.
"Poison gathered. Refine it with the core—purify it with the Bodhisattva Body Transformation Saliva."
Drawing a deep breath, Liu Xi grabbed the Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast's monster core and pressed it against Xiao Yixian's lower abdomen.
The instant it touched her skin, the core flared with light and sank slowly into her body, embedding itself within the heart of the swirling poison vortex.
At once, the entire vortex trembled, the core anchoring itself at its center like a heart of stone.
Seeing the process succeed, Liu Xi's expression grew grave. His gaze turned toward the white jade box beside him—the Bodhisattva Body Transformation Saliva. The most crucial step was about to begin.
He flipped his hand, drawing the viscous, jade-green substance into his palm. The Green Lotus Core Flame ignited around it, enveloping it completely.
The moment the saliva touched the flame, it writhed violently, as if alive, trying to escape the burning heat.
But Liu Xi didn't relent. The Bodhisattva Body Transformation Saliva, for all its miraculous properties, still needed refinement before it could safely interact with Xiao Yixian's body.
Two… three minutes passed.
Finally, under the unrelenting heat, the struggling liquid stilled—like a fish gone limp in boiling water.
"Hmm?"
Just as he was about to retract his flame, Liu Xi noticed something strange.
From within the burning mass, fine green dust began to fall. It gathered and compressed at the base of the liquid, slowly forming a small orb no larger than a thumb.
The moment it solidified, it detached and fell lightly into Liu Xi's waiting palm.
Its texture was rough, not smooth, yet it pulsed faintly with life energy.
"This is… a Bodhi Seed."
