During this period when a good fate was established by their meeting, it finally converged together just like all waters returning to their source, surging and colliding fiercely.
It propelled the state of "Tiger Roar Bone Forging Skills" to a realm that had been reached only by one person since ancient times!
In that instant of delay, the Dragon and Tiger Dharma Forms within Li Guanyi’s body roared simultaneously, no longer balancing each other. With a breath, Li Guanyi felt the speed of his Inner Qi’s circulation suddenly increase, with the sound of gold and jade echoing in his ears, continuous and unending. He could feel his transformation, feeling the power flowing with his blood within his body.
Tiger Roar Bone Forging Skills, Great Success!
[Martial Artist root bone ascended one level, refining hidden injuries, expelling hidden poison]
As Li Guanyi breathed and absorbed, his mind concentrated, planning to follow this perfect breakthrough momentum, to fiercely gather and rush towards the dire poison at his heart, intending to use this momentum to crush the poison in one fell swoop.
Inner Qi collided at his heart.
The roaring of the tiger didn’t cease.
The dire poison that had clung like bone marrow maggots entangling Li Guanyi for ten years struggled, but this breakthrough’s Tiger Roar Jin Qi, like a ferocious tiger galloping, was incomparably sharp, tearing at the poison at Li Guanyi’s heart, finally causing the poison to begin to disperse.
It was expelled from his heart meridian, and at this moment, Li Guanyi suddenly discovered something was amiss.
Along with the expulsion of the dire poison, waves of jade-green light blossomed from his heart, the murky air of the poison dispersed, and the jade-like radiance grew stronger and brighter, eventually bringing a tiger’s roar and a clear bird’s cry to his ears as the dire poison completely collapsed.
The sound of flapping wings was clear and real.
A jade-green Phoenix emerged from Li Guanyi’s heart, and at this time, Li Guanyi realized that the toxic gases were completely crushed and dissipated by this Green Bird Phoenix, the Dharma Form converged, jubilantly issuing a long cry. It suddenly appeared, stretching its body freely in the void.
Elegant and magnificent.
It appeared beside Li Guanyi with incredible affection, encircling his body.
Then affectionately touched his forehead.
Is this the Dharma Form?
Why would there be a Dharma Form in the heart?
Li Guanyi was stunned; the Dharma Form touched his forehead, then flapped its wings and flew into his body.
It brought a warm, stinging sensation. Smoke gathered before his eyes, converging into images; it was his own memory. He was an infant then, a woman gazing down at him tenderly, Li Guanyi couldn’t see her face clearly but just heard the woman speaking:
’Then transfer his poison to me...’
’The remaining poison that can’t be removed, my Green Bird will protect him.’
An elderly voice fell silent: ’But if the Dharma Form is transmitted, your Primordial Spirit will... Even with the improved Magic Skills, transferring the Dharma Form will cost you a third of your Primordial Spirit, and you...’
The woman softly pressed her palm against his forehead.
Li Guanyi’s eyes widened, trying to clearly see her face.
She embraced him as if he were the world’s most precious treasure, showing him flowers, reading books to him, telling him stories, her eyes always carried a smile when she looked at him, and at last Li Guanyi clearly saw her face, a beautiful woman, gazing at him with a smile.
She affectionately called him by his nickname, Li Guanyi stretched out his hand trying to touch her.
But she disappeared, leaving only a palace burning fiercely with raging flames before him. He could feel her inside, he cried loudly but could only emit an infant’s cry, unable to do anything.
Li Guanyi suddenly staggered; he covered his heart, the memories he had lived through yet forgotten piercing into his heart like a knife, causing an agonizing pain in his chest, a pain instinctive from the body, stemming from memory and spirit.
At this moment, as the intense grief and pain suddenly struck, his body initiated self-protection, and he thought rather calmly that the complete suppression of the dire poison began with the contact with Yue Qianfeng’s Red Dragon in the bronze tripod.
The suppressor of the dire poison had always been the Dharma Form.
Hence, what originally suppressed his dire poison, protecting him for such a long ten years, was not the artifact that brought him to this world, but a third of his mother’s Primordial Spirit and life. She transferred her own Dharma Form to Li Guanyi, letting her Dharma Form protect him, while she had paused ten years ago.
He had been silently loved all along.
Li Guanyi was dazed, suddenly recalling that day when the woman held him, the spring light flowing, the water of Jiangnan long.
Her chin rested on the child’s forehead, humming an ancient lullaby with a smile.
’May my child live a long life of a hundred years, forever joyful and free of sorrow.’
’Long life of a hundred years.’
’Forever joyful and free of sorrow.’
