Chapter 712 Eating a precious medicine raw? Are you even human?

Shi Hao sat cross-legged on the bluestone steps, his body engulfed in golden Dao fire.

That flame was no ordinary fire, but was formed by the condensation of two hundred and fifty-eight Great Dao Fire Seeds, containing the most primordial power in the world.

The flames were incredibly hot, scorching the surrounding chaotic mist and causing it to churn and distort the air.

Lin Dong stood not far away, his hands clasped tightly together.

Seeing Shi Hao's skin burned red and the sweat seeping from his pores being instantly evaporated, he felt a tightness in his heart.

He really wanted to go up and help, but he knew he couldn't.

Because Han Li and Luo Feng's words were still echoing in his ears.

This is Shi Hao's tribulation; no outsider can help him.

"Brother Shi Hao, you must hold on! We've only just become brothers, you absolutely cannot die..."

Lin Dong murmured softly, his eyes filled with worry.

However, Shi Hao could no longer hear his voice at this moment.

His entire being was now immersed in his own inner universe, guiding those sparks to burn one by one.

With each spark he ignites, the power of the flame increases by one.

Shi Hao thought that after experiencing the burning of the previous 258 flames, he had a sufficient expectation of the power of the Dao Fire.

But when the number of flames exceeded three hundred, he realized that his expectations were far from being met.

"--boom!!!"

The moment the three hundredth flame was ignited.

A terrifying power suddenly erupted from Shi Hao's body.

The force didn't spread outwards, but rather contracted inwards, like an invisible blade cutting wildly through his body.

Shi Hao let out a muffled groan, his body trembling violently.

Fine cracks appeared on his skin, and fresh blood seeped out from the cracks, which was then evaporated by the high temperature, turning into a faint blood mist.

Even so, Shi Hao did not stop trying to ignite the fire.

The 310th question...

The 320th question...

The 330th question...

As more and more tinder was added.

The flames were no longer the tempering flames they had been before, but had turned into more violent destructive flames.

They burned through Shi Hao's meridians, destroyed his muscles, and even burned his bones.

Soon, holes began to appear all over Shi Hao's body, one after another, making it clear from front to back!

Those were the marks left by the direct burning of the Dao Fire.

"--puff!!!"

Suddenly, Shi Hao spat out a mouthful of black blood. The blood fell to the ground and made a hissing sound, corroding a shallow pit in the bluestone steps.

Shi Hao could no longer maintain his seated position and tumbled down the steps, crashing heavily onto the stone steps below.

"Brother Shi Hao..."

Lin Dong could no longer hold back and rushed forward.

"Don't be impulsive..."

Luo Feng grabbed him, his arms like iron clamps, holding Lin Dong tightly and preventing him from rushing towards Shi Hao.

Lin Dong, his eyes red, turned to Luo Feng and roared, "Sixth Brother, let me go! Can't you see Brother Shi Hao is dying? His body is being burned through! We have to save him, or he'll die..."

However, Luo Feng remained remarkably calm in the face of Lin Dong's concerns.

While holding Lin Dong down, he said in a deep voice, "Fifth Brother, calm down. Brother Shi Hao is currently tempering himself, and it seems he has reached the most crucial moment. If we go up to help him now, it is very likely that we will cause him to lose all his previous efforts, or even destroy his foundation..."

"Sixth Brother is right..."

At this moment, Han Li also walked over. He looked at Shi Hao and said in a low voice, "Fifth Brother, this is Shi Hao's tribulation, and also a bottleneck on his cultivation path. Only he himself can overcome this tribulation. No one else can help him. What we can do now is to guard this place and not let outsiders disturb him."

"But...but..."

Lin Dong gritted his teeth, his eyes red-rimmed.

He wanted to refute Han Li and Luo Feng's views, but he didn't know how to begin.

Seeing Shi Hao's body riddled with burns, Lin Dong ultimately gave up the idea of ​​rescuing him.

Because he knew that Han Li and Luo Feng were right.

He was too reckless.

And this moment.

Shi Hao was still lying on the stone steps, panting heavily.

His body was already badly damaged, his spiritual energy was almost exhausted, and his life force was constantly fading away.

But he did not give up.

He gritted his teeth, his hand trembling as he reached out and took out a crystal-clear precious herb from the cave.

Those were picked by them in the Lesser Thousand Worlds.

Although it cannot compare to that sacred herb, it is still extremely precious.

"—Snap!!!"

Shi Hao tore open the precious medicine, then stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it directly.

"Gurgle~"

The moment the precious herb entered his stomach, Shi Hao felt a warm life force surge out from his body.

That life force began to heal the wounds he had been burned by the Dao Fire.

The damaged meridians in his body began to reconnect under the nourishment of the precious medicine, and even the burned bones began to heal.

A moment later.

Shi Hao's life force gradually returned.

A sliver of color finally returned to his face.

"This guy... he's actually consuming the precious medicine raw?"

Han Li was horrified when he saw Shi Hao swallow the precious medicine raw: "Brother Shi Hao, you're wasting such a treasure! If these medicines were given to our fourth brother to refine pills, who knows how many high-quality pills could be made. You just ate them raw, wasting at least half of their efficacy..."

At this moment, Lin Dong suddenly interjected, "Third Brother, there's something I'm not sure if I dare to remind you of..."

Han Li frowned slightly: "What is it?"

Lin Dong hesitated for a moment and said, "Have you forgotten... most of the precious herbs we picked in that minor world are with Brother Shi Hao, even the most precious Void Heaven Divine Vine is with him..."

The Void Heaven Divine Vine was the sacred medicinal herb they had previously picked from that minor world.

Upon hearing Lin Dong's words, Han Li's expression instantly changed: "What did you say? That Void Heaven Divine Vine is also on Brother Shi Hao?"

Lin Dong nodded: "Yes, weren't you there at the time? Didn't you know?"

"I was busy researching how to transplant and graft those precious herbs, how could I have time to care about who had that sacred herb?"

At this point, Han Li suddenly remembered something and exclaimed in alarm, "Oh no... If Brother Shi Hao eats that Void Heaven Divine Vine raw, that would be a complete waste... That's a sacred herb! If it were used to refine pills, it could definitely produce a batch of peerless divine pills. How could he...?"

Han Li's heart was bleeding at this moment.

He simply hadn't expected that Shi Hao would consume those precious medicines at such a time.

Even more unexpectedly, Shi Hao was so fierce, consuming those precious medicines without even refining them.

Eating rare and precious herbs raw—is this a demon beast or a human cultivator?
