Hao Ren and Han Lingshi were sitting back-to-back again. Their bodies were covered with gashes and bruises they earned while rushing to their current position. The manifestations of the flames were roaring at them. The next moment, the phantoms dissolved and transformed into wisps of pure destructive energy and rushed inside the bodies of the two people. The couple shivered as a terrible pain courses through their bodies. Han Lingshi was about to scream when she heard Hao Ren's voice as he recited his cultivation sutra. The voice was calm and it shocked her so much that she even forgot her pain. It was not that Hao Ren was invulnerable to pain, but he was tolerating it and focusing on the power that was testing him. She could sense his body shivering, and also his resolve. She grit her teeth and began to recite the cultivation mantra for her technique as well. The energy that the couple was trying to refine was so strong that it was freezing and melting the bodies of Han Lingshi and Hao Ren from the inside, respectively. While Han Lingshi was focused on cultivation and enduring the pain. Hai Ren yelled in his mind, "System! You motherfucking eunuch voiced piece is shit! Seal the flames, my bones are turning to ash." *Ding: Five minutes later, the spiritual flames will be seal. You will have to endure and use this opportunity to refine your body. Also, for cursing the system, the host recieves one minute penalty.* Hao Ren coughed up a mouthful of blood. No, it was not entirely the cruelty displayed by the system but also the damage left in his body by the flames. Now that he knew what the system was going to do, he just has to ball up and tolerate the pain. Hao Ren was also dedicated when it came to cultivation, so he focused on the wisps of energy that were moving inside his body and then the chant began. After just ten seconds, the couple was focused on cultivation, and the energy from the flames began to move through their bodies. It did not take for the two of them to enter the higher sync and the energy began to move from one body to the other. The cold and hot energies helped them sustain but at the same time it caused them to suffer as well. The sudden drops and rise in the body temperature was making them feel relieved but at the same time it was scary as well. The energy slowly began to move inside the dantian. While Hao Ren had only the Yang Flames inside his body, Han Lingshi was absorbing the cold Yin flames. Their realm was also increasing steadily. The wisps of spiritual energy were being refined into a purer quality as the flame energies accumulated above the spirit whirlpool. Hao Ren did not care about anything at the moment, because while he was refining the flame energy, a shared of it rushed to his mind and he felt as if someone has put a rotating drill inside his skull. Then a dull thunder echoed throughout his body. This was the impact of his soul sea being tore open. Now, Hao Ren found himself standing on a barren patch of land and before him a beautiful red bird was flying around. The width of the wings were enough to shame the world's biggest plane, and the beauty of her eyes were something that could not be put into words. Hao Ren took a deep breath and was about to think about what just happened, when the bird in the sky turned to look at him. Hao Ren shivered, the fear that he felt at this moment was something that a weaker species felt when looked down upon by a predator who sat higher in the food chain. Han Lingshi chuckled and said, "You are not worried about the Han Family issues?" Hao Ren clicked his tongue and said, "I will handle that when I am at least void shattering realm. Think about it, Old Boy Hao was so strong yet he was forced to run away from his home. I wonder how strong were the enemies. Just because we are getting stronger, it does not mean they are waiting for us to come down and beat them." Han Lingshi replied, "I understand what you are saying, but if you cannot confront your enemies until you are in the Void Shattering Realm, what is even the point to go to the spirit shimmer continent when you are just at core formation realm?" The young man replied, "It is because we need to face our own tribulations and grow stronger. We will need to form even better connections. That is why we need to get there." The lady sighed and said, "Why does life have so much struggle? Why can't we just go and live at a farm and grow old?" Hao Ren chuckled and said, "We can do that, how about it?" Han Lingshi pushed against him and said, "Cultivate already, why do you talk so much?" The two people closed their eyes and began to cultivate. Hao Ren was also trying to learn more about the boxing technique that he had just gained, and Han Lingshi was the same. ... Outside the cave, Rati was sitting on a rocking chair in the backyard of the house. She was staring at the sky, and just a few seconds ago, the clouds cleared and the stars appeared vividly. Rati was surprised by this, because even though the pollution in the area was almost negligible, she had never seen so many stars gathered in the sky. She mumbled, "The barrier is gone." The barrier that was erected by the spiritual flames to conceal their presence was now gone, it meant, Hao Ren and Han Lingshi had finished refining the flames. Just when the sun was about to come up, she saw two people stepping out of the stairwell. The sunlight broke through the dark of the night and illuminated their figure, and Rati could not help but say, "Couple of Dragon and Phoenix descends, when they soar the world will change." The two people came closer to her, and said, "Thank you for giving us this chance, Senior."
