Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Chapter 643 - 249: Body Seizure (Voting Request)

If the "Power of Life" in Flame Lake City can help the Foundation of the Immortal Embryo, he plans to bring his wife, Xiao Hongxiao, over as well.

It’s quite a good choice for a family of three with Fire Attribute Spirit Roots to settle down in Flame Lake City.

"Ah Die!"

A group of Shen Family cultivators hauled the luggage of He Zhongyi and the Zhang Clan, following Shen Chonghong to the gates of Flame Lake City.

Having received the message, Shen Xiuyun had long been waiting at the gates with his people.

Seeing his father’s arrival, Shen Xiuyun’s face lit up with a smile, and he rushed forward.

Noticing that his son had grown significantly taller and stronger, Shen Chonghong also smiled.

He gently tapped his son’s solid chest with a playful fist and teased, "Brat, you’re even stronger than your father!"

Shen Xiuyun rubbed his chest and grinned, then his expression turned serious: "I heard that Ah Die was injured. How are you now?"

Shen Chonghong was momentarily stunned, then he shook his head with a smile: "It’s nothing serious anymore."

He didn’t reveal his true condition because he didn’t want his son to worry.

He Zhongyi, understanding his elder brother’s intention, interrupted the father and son: "Alright, Xiuyun, we’ve been traveling with Brother Chonghong, and you’re just keeping us at the city gate without arranging for a rest?"

Only then did Shen Xiuyun realize and quickly invited everyone into the city.

In the room, the three of them sat together.

"Since Brother Chonghong is here, you should first take charge of matters in Flame Lake City."

"This way, Xiuyun and I can focus on delving into the Artifact Refining Dao and strive to refine more magical artifacts for the family as soon as possible."

He Zhongyi said with a smile.

Shen Chonghong nodded slightly.

He had come here to relax and to see if he could use the "Power of Life" in the city to recover from his injuries.

With nothing much else to do, and considering that the cultivators and common people in Flame Lake City combined numbered only a few hundred, there wasn’t much to worry about.

"You guys refine your artifacts as usual, and if I have nothing to do, I’ll be meditating on the Lotus Platform above the Magma Lake."

"If you need anything, just send someone to call me."

Shen Chonghong said solemnly.

He had already sensed the "Power of Life" in Flame Lake City; since stepping into the city, he could faintly feel that this power was truly extraordinary, and the gloom caused by the damage to the Foundation of the Immortal Embryo dissipated significantly.

"Third Uncle has warned that no one should venture into the depths of the Magma Lake, so you should be careful, Brother Chonghong."

Upon hearing this, He Zhongyi cautioned.

"Oh?"

"What’s at the bottom of the Magma Lake?"

Shen Chonghong asked curiously.

Shen Xiubai, beside him, explained: "Third Grandpa said there’s a powerful presence at the lake’s bottom."

"But he didn’t tell me or Uncle Zhongyi what it was specifically."

Upon hearing this, Shen Chonghong looked at He Zhongyi and saw him nodding, so he did not ask further.

"Alright, I’ll just be meditating on the Lotus Platform in the lake this time; I won’t risk diving into the magma."

After the three of them chatted for a while, Shen Chonghong went straight to the edge of the Magma Lake. Among the many constructed Lotus Platforms, he picked one standing at the center and leaped onto it.

Seated cross-legged on that Lotus Platform, Shen Chonghong instantly felt a rich flow of Earth Fire Essence Qi mixed with the faint but pure "Power of Life" surging incessantly from the magma below!

However, once this rich Earth Fire Essence Qi entered his body, only a small amount was converted into Fire Attribute Spiritual Power.

The reason is that his Foundation of the Immortal Embryo was severely damaged.

Just like a towering tree, most of its roots buried underground had decayed.

No matter how rich the nutrients in the soil, with only a few roots left, it couldn’t absorb and convert much.

Realizing this, an air of despondency rose in Shen Chonghong’s heart.

But fortunately, the effect brought by the subsequent "Power of Life" showed him a glimpse of hope once more.

The "Power of Life" mixed in the rich Earth Fire Essence Qi, upon entering his body, began to slowly heal the hidden injuries of his meridians, and subtly enhance their strength.

As the hidden injuries in his meridians were repaired and their strength gradually improved, a small part of the "Power of Life" slowly flowed into his Dantian.

At that moment, when the terribly damaged Foundation of the Immortal Embryo encountered a wisp of that faint "Power of Life", it was like the parched earth suddenly receiving a gentle drizzle.

A faint sensation of comfort washed over him, instantly filling Shen Chonghong’s heart with joy!

It works!

The "Power of Life" indeed has an effect on the Foundation of the Immortal Embryo’s wounds!

As it stands, although the effect isn’t strong, as long as he persists, there’s still hope for recovery!

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Shen Chonghong immediately calmed his Heart Spirit and began to focus entirely on absorbing the continuously flowing Earth Fire Essence Qi and the "Power of Life" within it.

...

In a guest room in Yunzhong County City.

Shen Chongming, Luo Yao, and Old Man Jin from Celestial Sandalwood Mountain were sitting together.

Old Man Jin smiled as he looked at Shen Chongming and said: "Patriarch Shen, the ancestor mentioned before leaving that he had spoken with Elder Sword Immortal, about whether part of the Three Commanderies under Jianan Temple could be ceded to our Celestial Sandalwood Mountain?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Chongming glanced at him with a half-smile: "Elder Feng spoke with Third Uncle?"

He understood his Third Uncle Shen Wen’an’s personality; family matters like this he wouldn’t bother with.

Moreover, if he had really agreed, he wouldn’t have neglected to inform him.

Old Man Jin gave an awkward laugh: "The ancestor did indeed talk with Elder Sword Immortal..."

Shen Chongming, seeing this, understood vaguely in his heart but didn’t say it out loud.
