Su Wanyue wouldn't intentionally harm herself, as her power made it all too easy to kill him.

Chu Hao dispelled all hesitation and wholeheartedly guided the power of the Flame Essence within himself, circulating continuously throughout his body.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

He could feel, as if one part of his body after another was being ignited, causing him to involuntarily moan in pain. However, he did not want to attract anyone's attention, so he bit his lips tightly, making not a sound.

From the effort, blood flowed from his lips.

Chu Hao gritted his teeth, the rampaging energy inside him was like a Fire Dragon, constantly stirring and destroying!

This power was too tyrannical!

But the effect was also very apparent, Chu Hao could clearly feel the cells in his body becoming extremely active, frantically absorbing the Power of Flame! Each cell became transparent, glowing as they blazed furiously.

Usually, with the rate he absorbed Star Stone, it would only take a few minutes to reach his limit, but now that limit was obviously broken, as he had been absorbing for half an hour without feeling any sign of the cells being overwhelmed.

And his strength was also rapidly increasing on the frontline!

Very quickly, really quickly!

But the burning of the flames was just painfully intense, and although Chu Hao desperately held on, his endurance ultimately had its limits, and for self-protection, his brain chose to faint.

When Chu Hao woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.

He activated his power and couldn't help but show a strong expression of surprise—just overnight, he had increased his strength by thirty thousand catties!

And if it weren't for his body not being tough enough, this definitely wasn't the limit!

After yesterday's baptism, his endurance would certainly be even higher today!

But... he was so hungry!

An increase or significant consumption of strength always produces a strong sense of hunger. Chu Hao quickly made a fire and started cooking, eating together with Flying Fire.

After eating, Chu Hao didn't rush to cultivate but wandered around instead.

Most people were discussing how the mysterious assassin from yesterday had not reappeared, probably really gone. Chu Hao heard this, and he couldn't help but laugh inwardly; in fact, the mysterious assassin had acted again yesterday, but had unluckily encountered Su Wanyue!

One thing everyone got right was that the assassin would never appear again!

Naturally, some talked about Chu Hao and Mo Guxin's final showdown in five days. Chu Hao heard a rumor that, to ensure Mo Guxin's victory, the Sect had prepared many Spirit Fruits for him, allowing him to reach a colossal strength of a million catties on the day of the showdown!

—After all, Chu Hao had mastered Shocking Force, which drastically increased his lethality, and it wouldn't be easy to secure a sure win without overwhelming him in strength!

This news was likely true; these days, Chu Hao had experienced the disdain and contempt of the Native Faction toward the people of the Lower World, and the Sect's obvious favoritism, and thus the Sect absolutely did not want to see a disciple from the Lower World winning this competition!

Chu Hao's anger was already ignited, this was just adding fuel to the fire!

If it were the day before yesterday, he really wouldn't have been able to do anything but watch Mo Guxin's strength increase. But now... now he had over a dozen Flame Essences in his hand!

Go back to cultivate, and then defeat Mo Guxin in five days!

Chu Hao returned to his wooden house, took out the Flame Essences, and said to himself, "This time, I must endure even longer!"

"Roar!" Flying Fire nuzzled him affectionately with its head.

"Do you also want to become stronger?" Chu Hao smiled, and thinking it over—Fire Cloud Leopard should also have a Fire Attribute, right? He took out another Flame Essence and threw it to Flying Fire, saying, "Try and see if you can absorb the power from this. But, don't force it! However, according to Su Wanyue, even if the physique does not match, one can still absorb the power, just with lesser effects!"

Flying Fire immediately took the Flame Essence in its mouth and ran to the side. In a mere instant, its fur shone brilliantly as if it had caught fire.

"I will not lose to anyone!" Chu Hao also sat down and started cultivating the Nameless Technique.

Boom!

His body immediately churned like an overturned river and sea, similar to yesterday, making him feel as if he was in the midst of a sea of fire, the frightening high temperatures scorching every nerve!

Chu Hao's will had been tested by the Strong Muscle Powder, but the Strong Muscle Powder had a time limit, requiring only a thirty-minute soak, but this was endless. Wave after wave of fiery assaults later, Chu Hao fainted again.

But this time he forcefully made a note of the time—one hour and seventeen minutes!

When he woke up from the faint, it was already evening, the moon hanging high above the willow treetops, the light dim.

Chu Hao was awakened by an intense hunger, he quickly got up, started a fire, and began cooking. Fortunately, previously, Tang Xin had given him all the meat from ferocious beasts, which he had cured and stored, and now it finally came in handy.

Flying Fire also paused its cultivation, standing by watching him cook, looking dejectedly hungry.

—It definitely had also greatly increased in strength and was famished!

After both the pet and the master had filled their stomachs, they immediately resumed their cultivation.

Time was running short, just under four days left!

Chu Hao continued like this, cultivating until he passed out, then eating when he woke up, and continuing to cultivate after eating.

He could endure longer and longer, advancing from over an hour to two hours, then three hours, and by the fourth day, he was able to last four hours while his fainting period had also shortened to four hours!

His strength skyrocketed, advancing from near a seventh-tier Martial Disciple to a ninth-tier. With one day to go, even if he couldn't reach the tenth tier, reaching an impressive 950,000 catties of giant strength was absolutely not a problem!

The Flame Essence was also being consumed rapidly, initially only half a piece per day, but now it had escalated to one piece each day.

Even if it couldn't match Mo Guxin, it wouldn't be far behind!

However, considering the nature of the Sect, Mo Guxin would likely be equipped with a Treasure Artifact, so the gap in strength between them would still be significant!

"But, I always feel that the Flame Essence has more to offer!" Chu Hao thought in his heart, as if something was about to sprout from within his body. Especially in the last few days, and particularly yesterday, this feeling had grown increasingly clear.

One more day, let's go again!

Chu Hao activated the Nameless Technique, and boom, a violent surge of the Power of Flame rushed into his body, but this time he endured it without even frowning, having experienced it so many times!

Boom, boom, boom, the cells in his body desperately absorbed the Power of Flame, and a certain transformation was brewing within the cells, becoming clearer and stronger!

Not enough! Not enough!

Chu Hao suddenly realized that one Flame Essence could not support the transformation taking place in the cells of his body, as if the energy was insufficient for a qualitative change!

Then!

Chu Hao gritted his teeth, and a burst of craziness suddenly came over him, and he took out six Flame Essences at once!

He had a total of nine left!

Whoosh, Flying Fire rushed over and snatched three of them in one go!

Had this fellow encountered the same situation?

Well, well!

Chu Hao had no choice but to take out the remaining three Flame Essences, his blood filled with the spirit of adventure. What was there to fear in failure, not trying would only lead to regret!

Come on!

He clenched his fists, each hand gripping three Flame Essences, his gaze intense, emitting a fierce determination, and the Nameless Technique was activated once again.

Ah, it hurts! It's so hot!

Simultaneously absorbing six Flame Essences, this violent impact almost knocked Chu Hao unconscious, but he clenched his teeth tightly to maintain consciousness.

At such a critical moment, how could he pass out!

Puff! Puff! Puff!

His arms, thighs, chest, and abdomen all burst out with blood, his skin unable to withstand the violent impact, tearing apart!

Chu Hao did not falter, as he felt that under the nourishment of this powerful energy, the cells in his body were finally undergoing a qualitative change!

It seemed as though something was about to hatch!

The process was slow, and although the cells were greedily absorbing the Power of Flame, the energy required to initiate a qualitative change was extremely high and would take a lot of time to complete!

Chu Hao's face showed extreme agony. Absorbing six Flame Essences simultaneously, the level of pain was not simply multiplied by six, but much more!

He gritted his teeth and endured, but his body had its limits, his consciousness hovering on the brink of clarity and unconsciousness, and he could collapse from fainting at any moment.

I must, I absolutely cannot faint!

Chu Hao said to himself, thinking of the Sect's injustice, which required tremendous strength to break. Even though he was not yet qualified to confront a Martial Master, at least he had to take down Mo Guxin, to win a victory for the Lower World!

He thought of Su Wanyue, who had at least the cultivation of a Warrior at such a young age. If he couldn't bear this hardship, how could he face her again in the future?

I must persevere!

Absolutely!

Chu Hao bit so hard his teeth bled, his skin almost entirely damaged from the violent impacts.

I'm finally at my limit!

Chu Hao wanted to hold on longer, but it wasn't up to him.

Buzz!

At that moment, his cells finally underwent a qualitative change!

It was as if billions of flowers bloomed at once, and all the cells in his body underwent indescribable and ineffable changes in that instant. With a booming sound, each cell ignited, turning into miniature furnaces!

The burning sensation of the flames instantly disappeared!

On the contrary, he felt as if he had returned to the womb. The previously violent Power of Flame suddenly became extremely gentle, bringing him an immense sense of enjoyment. Moreover, his absorption speed of the Power of Flame spiked, not just from the Flame Essences in his hands but even drawing Fire Energy from the cool moonlight, converting it into his power!

His body like a furnace, refining everything!

Crack! Crack!

The six Flame Essences in his hands completely turned into powder. Chu Hao opened his palms, flipped them over, and let the powder fall to the ground, but a strange sensation welled up within him, leading him to unconsciously employ some kind of power.

Boom! A bizarre occurrence unfolded, his hands... they actually caught fire!
