Chapter 329: Chapter 328: Flesh Pill

As Zhong Lin’s five fingers splayed open, it seemed as though a wheel was rotating in his palm.

Five colors, five elements.

Five Elements Rotation.

As Zhong Lin threw a punch, a massive wheel mark rose, propelled forward by the vast primordial qi between heaven and earth, rolling forward crushingly.

This "Five Elements Rotation" was already vastly different from before; it was more agile, more condensed, and more imposing.

Within the fist seal, not only did spiritual origin circulate, but also the power of qi-blood from various acupuncture points mixed within, causing the entire wheel seal to cast a faint blood-red hue, subtly shaking one’s heart.

The martial artists observing from afar only felt their spirits and wills enveloped by an overwhelming fist intent, as if a great sun rose above the sea.

Within the heaven and earth essence qi drawn by the wheel seal, with each rotation, everyone’s mind trembled, as if their entire being was under the oppression of a giant mountain.

The mental pressure was unimaginable.

"Is this the essence of fist intent? How could such a powerful person appear, having comprehended fist intent, and at such depth?"

Wu Xiangyi was spiritually shaken. In the face of this terrifying fist intent, he almost felt an impulse to kneel.

Martial artists with lower cultivation around him were already pale-faced, trembling, almost fleeing in terror.

As for the six-eyed flying fish, they had long burst into bits of rotten flesh under the terrifying fist intent, plunging into the water’s depth.

Rumble!

At the instant the massive wheel seal rotated, the air within several miles exploded and vanished under the enormous pressure.

Centered faintly on the specter salmon demon fish, the area within several miles seemed to turn into a vacuum zone.

"Wah wah!"

The specter salmon demon fish also sensed the terror, opened its toad-like mouth, and emitted a strange cry.

"Die."

Bang!

A sudden flash of blood light appeared.

With the emergence of this fist seal, time and space seemed to abruptly freeze.

All colors, light, smells, sounds, etc., lost their hues, becoming mindless, devoid of any vision, devoid of any world of hearing, with thoughts seemingly nonexistent.

Even the people observing from afar seemed momentarily entranced in an inexplicable state, as if everything ceased to rotate.

When everyone reopened their eyes, the world fell into silence.

In the void, only a tall figure stood above, resembling an eternal divine entity.

And that fearsome specter salmon demon fish had long turned into a heap of rotten flesh, lifeless.

With the specter salmon demon fish’s death, the remaining six-eyed flying fish, terrified, dived into the sea and disappeared.

Zhong Lin waved his right hand, and the massive body of the specter salmon demon fish was directly stored into the storage bracelet.

A sea beast rivaling the Xuandan realm was a treasure, even if used in alchemy, it could create powerful spirit pills.

Stepping forward, he returned directly to the giant wheel.

"Sir, do you know that... that sir?"

A martial artist, looking towards the direction Zhong Lin departed, whispered to Wu Xiangyi.

"He... he seems to be called Zhong Lin."

Wu Xiangyi too watched Zhong Lin’s silhouette, with an indescribable feeling in his heart, a wave of warmth.

Only then did the martial artists dare to breathe a sigh of relief, glancing at each other with a feeling of surviving a catastrophe.

An awe-inducing scene for martial artists who had never stepped beyond the Luoxing Islands before—a youth pulverizing a Xuandan-rank kindred spirit salmon demon fish with a single punch.

Zhong Lin.

This name was destined to be etched into their hearts, forever unforgettable.

...

Inside the room, Zhong Lin sat cross-legged on the bed.

The spiritual artifact furnace had long been taken out, burning fiercely, and within the furnace, the life essence of the specter salmon demon fish was being slowly refined.

Various spirit grass and spiritual medicines were pulled from the storage bracelet and thrown in, undergoing a series of exceedingly complex refining processes, finally transforming into numerous flesh-colored elixir pills.

"Senior Brother."

Long Zhao pushed the door open, a look of ardent anticipation across his face.

Zhong Lin happened to open the furnace lid at that moment, a wave of his sleeve sending countless flesh elixirs flying out, numbering a thousand in all.

Long Zhao looked oddly at these things that seemed part elixir, part common meatball, most notably that the smell they emanated made him... hungry.

"Senior Brother, what are these things?"

"Flesh elixirs, primarily using the flesh of the specter salmon demon fish, supplemented with various spiritual medicines, crafted to bolster qi-blood and restore energy. Try one."

Zhong Lin bore a broad smile, clearly satisfied with these flesh elixirs.

With a flick of his finger, a flesh elixir flew into Long Zhao’s hand.

Long Zhao instinctively pinched it, soft and springy, with a smell of meat not found in spirit pills.

No doubt about it, Long Zhao swallowed the flesh elixir whole.

Unlike a spirit pill, which melts immediately on the tongue, it needed chewing, carrying the rough texture specific to meat fibers.

With one flesh elixir ingested, Long Zhao’s eyes sparkled.

"Delicious, somewhat like the medicinal food my Master cooked for me in the postnatal realm... Whoa! Such powerful qi-blood."

Before he could finish speaking, Long Zhao only felt a massive force of qi-blood burst from his abdomen like a dam suddenly breaking, making his qi-blood surge slightly, his face reddening.

"Activate Dragon Elephant Golden Body."

Zhong Lin’s gentle voice echoed in his ear, and Long Zhao instinctively obeyed, a faint golden light spreading across his skin.

After a while, Long Zhao slowly opened his eyes, jubilant: "Senior Brother, this... this flesh elixir actually aids in cultivating the Dragon Elephant Golden Body."

Long Zhao had long cultivated the Dragon Elephant Golden Body to the seventh level, but the eighth layer had remained elusive. He had sought Zhong Lin’s guidance for a breakthrough, and Zhong Lin had pointed out a direct method.

Yet, upon hearing that the method involved subjecting himself to a furnace, to be refined, it horrified him to silence.

Though he knew his senior brother would not deceive him, the thought of enduring spiritual fire, far scarier than ordinary flames inside a furnace, turned his face ashen.

The slightest mishap could truly meld him into a pill.

Thus, he abandoned the idea of using Zhong Lin’s method, opting to cultivate slowly instead.

Unexpectedly, consuming a flesh elixir made his stagnant Dragon Elephant Golden Body advance once again, filling him with excitement.

"Naturally, this specter salmon demon fish could rival Xuandan realm martial artists, its body storing immense vital energy. I used alchemy skills to expel its impurities, supplemented with various spirit grasses, crafting it into shape. You didn’t think it was just a meatball, did you?" Zhong Lin commented, smiling faintly.

Long Zhao scratched his head, loudly praising, "Senior Brother possesses godlike prowess, and I am dwarfed in comparison."

Long Zhao’s eyes were riveted on the furnace, overflowing with eagerness.

"Well, senior brother, would you consider..."

Zhong Lin flicked his sleeve, sending several hundred flesh elixirs over.

Long Zhao hurriedly caught them, too afraid to use spiritual origin for fear of damaging them.

"These flesh elixirs should suffice for you to break through to the eighth layer."

"Thank you, Senior Brother."
