Seeing such a scene, Lin Feng’s eyes suddenly lit up, and a bold idea emerged! After properly placing Tangyuan in a spot, Lin Feng started setting up the formation again. This time, he spared no expense and used thousands of Yuan Stones!

Once the formation was completed, the moment Lin Feng activated it, he immediately held the peculiar fruit with both hands and began using the transformation technique spat out by Tangyuan, hoping to take advantage of this time to see if he could accelerate the process of Yuangang transformation through this method.

And indeed, as Lin Feng anticipated, the peculiar fruit, within the formation, continuously absorbed Yuan Energy, and at the same time, injected the processed energy into his body to form Yuangang. This transformation process was much more efficient than using his own transformation technique. Seeing such results, his eyes brightened, and he completely ignored everything else.

In the blink of an eye, seven days passed. When Lin Feng opened his eyes and saw that all the Yuan Stones used in the formation had turned to dust, his brows furrowed slightly. Knowing that the formation he last laid down used 10,000 Yuan Stones, but they only lasted him seven days, he found this approach extremely costly!

Moreover, what made Lin Feng even more speechless was that the speed of Yuangang transformation using this method wasn’t as exaggerated as he had hoped. After some calculation, he found that this method accelerated the process to about five or six times his usual cultivation speed. However, achieving just five or six times the speed came at such a high price, which made Lin Feng feel rather pained.

"Boss, you’re awake." Tangyuan exclaimed in surprise upon seeing Lin Feng, then immediately jumped onto Lin Feng’s shoulder, rubbing its little head against Lin Feng’s neck a few times.

"Tangyuan, you’re awake too!" Although Tangyuan’s rubbing made him a bit ticklish, Lin Feng didn’t stop it. Seeing that Tangyuan was fine, he asked, "Where did you go before to get such severe injuries?"

"Don’t ask where I went. It was all worth it to get the Yuanwang Zhuguo." Tangyuan promptly replied upon hearing Lin Feng show concern for its injuries, seemingly not wanting to recall the events that took place earlier.

"You said this is the Yuanwang Zhuguo. What does it do?" Lin Feng quickly asked, although he already had a hunch, his heart still warmed. Tangyuan had only been with him for about a month, yet it risked life and limb to get him the Yuanwang Zhuguo, which truly moved him.

"Simply put, after consuming this fruit, you can cultivate Yuangang more easily than before, and it can also accelerate the process of Yuangang transformation." Tangyuan briefly explained, but a deep and complex expression flashed in its eyes. If it weren’t for Lin Feng’s current dangerous situation, it would have never gone to that place. In the past, it wouldn’t have dared to eye the Yuanwang Zhuguo at all, and it wasn’t even sure what was wrong with its own mind!

Upon hearing Tangyuan’s explanation, Lin Feng was momentarily stunned. With his knowledge, how could he not know the value of the Yuanwang Zhuguo? It’s a rare natural treasure capable of altering one’s physique. Even on Earth, such a treasure is exceptionally rare. He couldn’t believe Tangyuan managed to get hold of this item! 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

But now, he didn’t want to overthink it. Once his power increased, he would naturally repay Tangyuan. Looking at the Yuanwang Zhuguo in his hand, Lin Feng furrowed his brows. Although it looked like an apple, it was as hard as an iron block. How could he possibly eat it?

"How do you use this Yuanwang Zhuguo?" Unable to think of a method of consumption, Lin Feng asked Tangyuan.

"You just eat it!" Tangyuan said, looking at Lin Feng with an expression as if he were an idiot.

"It’s so hard, and so big, there’s no way to swallow it!" Lin Feng was even more speechless at this point. An apple-sized Yuanwang Zhuguo, how could he possibly swallow it? It would likely get stuck in his throat!

"I have a way, but Boss, you need to close your eyes." Tangyuan’s eyes suddenly lit up as it spoke to Lin Feng, with a mischievous look in its eyes.

Hearing this, although Lin Feng found it odd, he followed Tangyuan’s words and closed his eyes.

Tangyuan’s body floated up, positioning Lin Feng’s hands in a certain manner, and then pried open Lin Feng’s mouth. It looked as if Lin Feng was about to take a bite of an apple, but just as Lin Feng also felt confused, something unexpected happened.

Suddenly, Tangyuan spat out a huge iron hammer as big as a door panel, just like a cannonball, and without waiting for Lin Feng to react, it slammed into the Yuanwang Zhuguo. In an instant, due to the momentum being too fierce, it directly sent Lin Feng flying dozens of feet away!

This strike left Lin Feng dizzy. He hadn’t expected Tangyuan to do such a thing, so he hadn’t prepared any defense. After getting up from the ground, he was somewhat shaky. Looking at Tangyuan, he was about to shout, "Tangyuan, what are you doing?"

Hearing Lin Feng getting angry, Tangyuan didn’t show any sign of nervousness and said to Lin Feng, "Boss, the Yuanwang Zhuguo is already in, you should quickly refine it!"

Lin Feng originally intended to grab Tangyuan and give it a beating, but upon hearing Tangyuan’s words, he finally realized that the Yuanwang Zhuguo in his hand was gone. Stunned, he wondered how he managed to swallow such a large thing, feeling a chill down his spine at the thought of this ingestion method!

At this moment, Lin Feng suddenly felt a fiery sensation in his stomach. He immediately realized that the Yuan Wang Zhu Guo was starting to take effect, so he stopped talking and sat down immediately, his Gang Qi burst forth fully, and he put all his effort into refining the Yuan Wang Zhu Guo!

At this moment, Lin Feng suddenly felt his internal organs were about to ignite, an indescribable heat seemed to set him aflame. But he understood that this was due to the special effects of the Yuan Wang Zhu Guo, so he could only endure it forcefully, using his own Gang Qi to continuously strengthen his body, to prevent it from bursting apart due to the violent medicinal power of the Yuan Wang Zhu Guo...

Pain!

An unprecedented pain!

His body felt like it was being deep-fried in boiling oil, his skin about to tear apart, and his bones seemingly about to break...

...

Lin Feng was enduring unimaginable pain alone. If it weren’t for his firm mind, knowing that he must persevere through this process, even he might have collapsed. Once he collapsed, it wasn’t just him who would die, but all the women in the Cave Heaven Mansion would also meet their end with him. He couldn’t bear that outcome, so he could only grit his teeth and endure!

Unknowingly, his teeth were already shattered, blood spilling from the corners of his mouth. Soon after, blood started to flow from his nose, ears, and eyes, even his entire skin was oozing blood, making him look like a blood-soaked human...

"Oh no, I forgot the boss is too weak!" Seeing Lin Feng in this state, Tangyuan suddenly remembered something and exclaimed, because seeing Lin Feng like this reminded it that the Yuan Wang Zhu Guo is generally only consumed by cultivators in the later stages of the Divine Origin Realm. Anyone below that level wouldn’t dare to take it because that would be suicidal. Previously, it was so focused on strengthening Lin Feng’s power that it forgot about this, worrying if Lin Feng might be torn apart by the medicinal power of the Yuan Wang Zhu Guo!

Thinking of this, Tangyuan covered its eyes with its hands, silently praying in its heart, hoping nothing happened to the boss, or else its own small life would be in danger...

The persisting Lin Feng heard Tangyuan’s words, and instantly spit out a mouthful of blood. How could he not understand what Tangyuan meant, but now he had no time to care about Tangyuan. He quickly concentrated all his mind, continuously infusing his subconscious with the thought, "I can’t die, I can’t die..."

The blood on Lin Feng’s body had flown so much that it dyed a large area of land beneath him crimson. The air was thick with a pungent bloody smell. From a distance, he looked like a skinned human, extremely terrifying, even Tangyuan beside him couldn’t bear to look directly!

One day later, Lin Feng’s blood was still flowing, and many cracks had appeared on his body, making him look like he was shattered and then pieced together with blood!

Two days later, Lin Feng’s condition worsened further. His skin completely collapsed, leaving exposed muscles naked in the air, and those muscles started to fracture and then re-fuse!

By the third day, a more gruesome aura erupted from Lin Feng’s body, and even white bones started protruding from Lin Feng’s body, exposed in Tangyuan’s view, frightening Tangyuan to slump on the ground, not daring to look anymore...

...

In the blink of an eye, ten full days passed. It wasn’t until ten days later that Lin Feng’s condition slowly began to improve. By the fourteenth day, skin started to grow over Lin Feng’s body, and by the seventeenth day, there were no visible injuries on Lin Feng’s surface, he appeared perfectly intact except he was now naked. His original clothes were completely shredded earlier in the process, while the ground around him, dried with blood, had formed a layer of crystalline flakes like stone...

"Whew!"

Suddenly, Lin Feng let out a long breath, feeling unprecedented lightness in his body. Although the pain was indeed terrifying, the results it brought were incredibly good. It could be said that his body had completely transformed now; such a remarkable effect far surpassed any marrow cleansing, not only was his body strengthened, but even his bones and internal organs were fortified. Just for this reason alone, the pain he had previously endured was worth it.

Opening his eyes and seeing Tangyuan lying on the ground staring straight at him, Lin Feng coldly said, "Tangyuan!"

"Boss, I did it for your own good, I didn’t know how I just forgot about that thing, it’s not my fault, not my fault!" As Lin Feng spoke, Tangyuan trembled all over. Even a fool knows what kind of pain Lin Feng had endured before, and now that he’s fine, he would definitely hold it accountable!

Seeing Tangyuan so frightened, a smile curled at the corner of Lin Feng’s mouth as he planned to get up and dress, intending to have a good discussion with Tangyuan once he was dressed, but what Lin Feng didn’t expect was that the moment he stood up, he heard Tangyuan’s scream!
