Ling Fan squeezed her hand as he saw this.
Lan Xueyi looked up, her beautiful eyes filled with Ling Fan's image. Seeing him by her side, her heart finally settled a little.
She felt that even if she died, this life would have been worth it.
Ling Fan smiled slightly and gently comforted her, "Just think of it as a cultivation session. After seven days, you will become an unparalleled prodigy!" Kuai Shu Ge
"Mhm."
Lan Xueyi nodded her chin lightly.
Ling Fan reached out and gently unfastened her clothes, which then slid down from her shoulders.
Only a piece of undergarment remained, guarding her sacred place.
With her clothes removed, a thin purple line could be clearly seen extending from her wrist all the way to her heart.
Ling Fan harbored no lustful thoughts at this moment.
His expression was solemn and filled with vigilance.
Even he had to face the legendary and extremely perilous tribulation of the Nine Deaths Spirit Phoenix Body with all his might.
Soon, Lan Xueyi's brows suddenly furrowed, and she let out a muffled groan, her beautiful face involuntarily showing a look of pain.
The thin purple lines on her body began to spread, thicken, and expand, branching out into countless fine tendrils, resembling an incredibly intricate ancient talisman that was about to manifest completely on her body.
It was also like a blooming purple flame, about to spread across her entire being.
Ling Fan's expression sharpened. The first tribulation of the Nine Deaths Spirit Phoenix Body was about to begin!
The Burning Tribulation was imminent.
Xueyi's expression grew increasingly pained, and she bit her red lips tightly to suppress her cries.
The purple lines on her body continued to spread, eventually covering her entire form, like countless blood-red petals blooming across a vast mountain range...
Boom!
A terrifying, blood-red flame ignited on her body.
Then, a second spot, a third spot...
In an instant, countless terrifying blood flames erupted on Xueyi's body, as if to incinerate her very bloodline into ashes.
It could be seen that under the burning of the blood flames, countless ashes emerged from her body...
This endless pain of burning her bloodline made Xueyi unable to endure any longer, and she let out a piercing scream.
Ling Fan did not intervene at this moment.
He quickly urged, "Xueyi, try to control these flames with your own power!"
Hearing Ling Fan's words, despite being in extreme pain, Xueyi still gritted her teeth, circulated her internal martial true qi, and attempted to suppress and extinguish these terrifying, boundless blood flames.
However, with a boom.
Her martial true qi was instantly incinerated.
It was insignificant in the face of the blood flames.
Like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
Ling Fan frowned.
Xueyi's strength was still too weak.
After all, she hailed from a small martial city in the lower realm, with scarce cultivation resources, leading to her insufficient strength to resist the tribulation of the Nine Deaths Spirit Phoenix Body.
Ling Fan sighed. There was no choice; he had to intervene earlier.
He had originally intended for Xueyi to hold on longer with her own strength, as the benefits gained from overcoming the tribulation would be greater.
But now was not the time to dwell on such thoughts.
Ling Fan's gaze seemed to pierce through the Lan Family Fort. He raised a finger.
Instantly, a massive formation materialized above the Lan Family Fort, densely packed with countless talismans, making the entire grand formation appear colorful and radiant!
At that moment, all the members of the Lan Family Fort witnessed the incredibly brilliant formation, their eyes filled with immense shock.
From that formation, they felt an incomparably terrifying and vast absolute power.
Lan Tianxiong and his wife tightly gripped each other's hands, their eyes filled with extreme tension.
Lan Junjie also looked worried, silently praying for his sister.
Although Ling Fan had not disclosed Xueyi's specific situation to them, they were not fools. An event that caused Ling Fan to be so cautious was certainly no trivial matter.
A powerful force poured down.
Ling Fan's single finger directed the invisible power of the formation, immediately enveloping Xueyi's delicate body.
This action seemed to provoke the blood flames on Xueyi's body!
Boom!
The crimson blood flames surged, like a ferocious beast with bared teeth and claws, aiming to incinerate Ling Fan, who dared to interfere with the Burning Tribulation, into ashes.
Ling Fan let out a cold snort, formed a hand seal, and pointed.
The invisible power of the formation instantly condensed into countless minute black dots.
If magnified, those black dots were revealed to be countless small divine Vermilion Birds.
At that instant, the momentum of the blood flames was immediately curbed.
And it was subtly being compressed and confined.
The look of pain on Xueyi's face also eased.
Ling Fan dared not be careless and continued to control the power of the Vermilion Bird Profound Fire Formation to suppress the blood flames.
However, he did not completely suppress the blood flames. Instead, he released a sliver, allowing Xueyi to contend with the blood flames, and simultaneously allowing the blood flames to purify Xueyi's bloodline.
This was to help Xueyi completely shed her mortal blood and transform into the true bloodline of the Nine Deaths Spirit Phoenix Body.
This process was extremely slow.
The vast majority of the blood flames were suppressed by Ling Fan.
The remaining sliver of blood flames, though still fierce, was no longer impossible to contend with and control.
Xueyi gritted her teeth and persisted, guiding the blood flames to burn her own bloodline.
It could be seen that after being burned by the blood flames, new blood emerged from the depths of Xueyi's physical divine treasures.
However, this rebirth of bloodline was very slow.
If Ling Fan had not suppressed the majority of the blood flames.
Xueyi would likely have been burned to death by her bloodline in a short time.
The newly born bloodline was simply insufficient to compensate.
...
One day passed.
Two days passed.
...
All the members of the Lan Family Fort harbored deep questions, yet no one knew what was happening inside.
Many inquired of Lan Tianxiong and his wife, but Lan Tianxiong merely shook his head.
Everyone could only suppress their inner doubts and continue to wait.
At the back of the crowd, Han Qing's eyes flickered, and he soon left stealthily.
Soon, he arrived before the cliff.
He blew a secret signal, and two black-clad experts quickly ascended from below the cliff.
Then, they silently took Han Qing away from the Lan Family Fort.
They were, in fact, two Xuan Gang realm experts!
...
All the Lan family members were focused on the grand formation, and no one paid attention to Han Qing's whereabouts.
Soon, the third day passed.
The fourth day passed.
...
Everything remained calm.
Although the sudden activation of the Lan Family Fort's Vermilion Bird Profound Fire Formation attracted the attention and speculation of many forces and experts in Jiangnan City, no one dared to disturb them out of fear of Ling Fan.
Soon, the seventh day arrived.
The Burning Tribulation, the first tribulation of Lan Xueyi's Nine Deaths Spirit Phoenix Body, had reached its most critical juncture.
The blood flames had become so powerful that even the Vermilion Bird Profound Fire Formation was beginning to struggle to suppress them.
Fortunately, after six days of transformation, Xueyi's mortal blood had been largely shed, and her new Spirit Phoenix bloodline had been born, granting her a certain degree of resistance. This had led to a delicate new balance.
As long as she could endure this final stage, Xueyi would be completely reborn.
...
Outside the Lan Family Fort.
