Hu Liena's current feeling was incredibly strange.
Her body seemed to have lost all weight.
She was immersed in a vibrant, colorful world…
Meanwhile, outside,
her body remained quietly immersed in the bath, surrounded by a light mist.
The pool of purple medicinal liquid was gradually boiling!
Bubbling and gurgling, just like boiling water!
The bath itself didn't have a heating device, so the reaction in the water was undoubtedly a natural chemical reaction produced by the medicinal liquid. The boiling was merely an appearance; in reality, the water temperature hadn't increased at all. Otherwise, Hu Liena wouldn't be peacefully asleep; she would have been scalded awake.
In the gradually boiling water,
the phantom of a nine-tailed purple fox quietly condensed—a spirit formed from the medicinal power. It could be said to have condensed almost all the medicinal power of the entire immortal herb, and therefore, as soon as it appeared, the entire pool of water immediately changed from purple back to clear, as if all the colors had been concentrated in this nine-tailed purple fox.
After condensing the spirit of the immortal medicine, the nine-tailed purple fox pounced directly on Hu Liena, as if transforming into a beam of light and merging into her body. It looked incredibly magical!
A
buzzing sound seemed to echo in the void!
Hu Liena, half-reclining, her flawless white body slowly levitated, water droplets sliding down… the scene was truly alluring.
The next moment,
dazzling purple light suddenly erupted,
enveloping Hu Liena entirely, transforming her into a cocoon of light. Within it, a slow, rhythmic heartbeat could be heard, like a larva about to emerge from its cocoon as a butterfly!
With a creak,
the door outside opened.
Footsteps approached rapidly, and the bamboo curtain was lifted.
Yun Chuan looked at the purple cocoon of light floating above the bathtub, feeling the life force emanating from it, and immediately knew that Hu Liena was lucky. This nine-tailed purple fox flower had begun to evolve her martial soul!
However… why was the life force so weak?
Looking at the purple cocoon of light floating in mid-air, Yun Chuan sensed a weakening energy emanating from it and immediately understood the problem. He focused his mind and gathered his strength, his five elements and internal organs radiating light!
"Let me lend you a hand!"
Under his control, the five elements within him transformed into pure life force!
Hu Liena was currently at a critical stage of transformation, so she needed sufficient energy; otherwise, the transformation might fail, or result in a half-finished product.
For example, in the original story, Yu Xiaogang's awakened martial soul was supposed to be the Golden Sacred Dragon, but due to insufficient energy and foundation at the time of awakening, his Golden Sacred Dragon degenerated into a pig.
Yun Chuan didn't want Hu Liena to repeat Yu Xiaogang's mistake. After all, he gave her the immortal herb hoping she would become stronger, not to destroy her. If her martial soul regressed instead of progressing, it would be a case of good intentions gone wrong.
The five elements within him continuously transformed into life force.
In his palm, a vibrant emerald green energy began to condense, growing from the size of an egg to that of a goose egg, an ostrich egg… finally reaching about half a meter in length before stopping.
"This much life force should be enough," Yun Chuan thought, looking at the large mass of life force in his hand and estimating her current limit. He slowly tossed the mass of life force out, and it floated lightly towards the purple cocoon of light above the pool, seemingly weightless.
As the mass of life force approached, the purple cocoon trembled, emanating an invisible suction force. With a whoosh, it sucked the mass of life force into it.
"…Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!!"
With the replenishment of this large mass of life force, the previously weak heartbeat within the cocoon became incredibly powerful! The thumping sound was like the beating of a large drum!
A smile appeared on Yun Chuan's face. He knew he had done the right thing; without the timely replenishment of life force, Hu Liena might have truly failed to evolve this time. After all, her foundation was ultimately too weak. The evolution of a martial soul is not a simple matter.
While the Nine-Tailed Purple Fox Flower is indeed a celestial herb, it only provides her with an opportunity for martial soul evolution. If her own physical attributes are not up to par, the evolution could absolutely fail.
"...Thump!!!"
"...Thump!!!!"
"...Thump!!!!!"
The heartbeat emanating from the purple cocoon of light grew louder and louder.
The deep vibrations were as if an ancient ferocious beast was being nurtured within!
The vibrations from the heartbeats even caused slight tremors in the surrounding rooftops.
Finally,
after reaching a limit,
the muffled, thunderous heartbeats within the cocoon vanished instantly!
Yun Chuan, who had been carefully observing, narrowed his eyes. He knew that the transformation of the martial soul was approaching its final moment.
This peak of prosperity followed by decline was precisely the most dangerous moment!
Yun Chuan closed his eyes and began to silently sense the life force within the cocoon of light. He could feel that the life force within was exceptionally weak, seemingly on the verge of death. However, a surging vitality was beginning to brew within!
He knew that Hu Liena had succeeded.
In his perception, the faint life force within the cocoon of light, though weak, was incredibly tenacious. It began to grow and strengthen little by little, gradually undergoing a transformation!
Experiencing this life change up close, Yun Chuan gained new insights into life. He began to carefully listen to the pulse of this life… this growth from weak to strong!
Finally…
after an unknown amount of time,
in Yun Chuan's perception, the life within the cocoon of light had reached its peak!
At this moment, its state was perfect!
"It's out!"
Yun Chuan instantly opened his eyes, staring intently at the purple cocoon of light suspended in mid-air.
At this moment, the surface of the purple cocoon of light had become incredibly dry, appearing grayish-white, as if all its nutrients had been absorbed.
Suddenly, with a crack
, a crack appeared on the outside of the cocoon of light! Multicolored light radiated through the crack…!
This crack gradually widened and spread…
the entire cocoon of light was covered with cracks, multicolored light filling the entire cocoon!
At a certain moment,
"Boom!!!"
The cocoon of light shattered!
A fox phantom appeared first, its fur a golden-orange hue, its body slender and graceful, yet it possessed nine thick, bushy fox tails!
Then, amidst a dreamlike, beautiful light, a girl, curled up like an infant, arms wrapped around her legs, her body completely naked, appeared before him… the fox phantom enveloped her entirely.
"Eee~"
The nine-tailed fox phantom seemed to possess its own sentience, suddenly letting out a long howl, both like a baby's cry and a woman's delicate moan—
even Yun Chuan's mind went blank for a moment, his senses completely captivated by the sound.
Fortunately, the nine-tailed fox phantom, as if expressing its joy at birth, began to slowly shrink after its howl, finally merging back into the curled-up Hu Liena's body.
At this moment, Hu Liena's eyelashes fluttered, then she slowly opened them, a seductive pink light appearing before slowly dissipating. She began to survey her surroundings, quickly spotting Yun Chuan's figure.
"What... happened to me?"
As if waking from a dream, Hu Liena looked at Yun Chuan not far away with some confusion.
