The Monkey King

Remove the bandage to reveal the fuzz, and the scar.

Yang Chan looked at the body in front of her with some surprise.

This body's vitality is extremely tough and its resilience is incomparable. It can survive even some injuries that would be fatal to ordinary people.

I just don’t know why, but every scar will be firmly remembered, as if I don’t want to forget it.

In ten years, scars of all sizes have spread all over the body.

There are scars, arrow marks, burns, and tooth marks.

Usually these are hidden under the hair and are not easy to detect, but now they are exposed in front of our eyes...

The moment she saw these scars, Yang Chan couldn't help but cover her mouth, her bright eyes full of indescribable horror.

However, the monkey didn't take it seriously at all.

Monkeys have long been accustomed to all this. He is a frequent visitor to hell.

Maybe as he said, life is cheap, so the Lord of Hell won't accept it.

Otherwise, what kind of strong vitality can survive such frequent life-and-death situations?

Yang Chan couldn't bear it, so she took out a jar of potion and tried to help the monkey remove it, but the monkey refused.

"No need, remember the lesson, it's not a bad thing." Monkey said calmly.

From his eyes, Yang Chan read the indifference to life and death.

A monkey who desperately wants to cultivate immortality and live a better life, but he has an indifference to life and death. This secretly surprised her.

Sighing lightly, Yang Chan said: "Okay, this scar is not on my body anyway. The medicine is ready and can be started at any time."

"Then let's start now." said the monkey.

It was early morning.

A large wooden bathtub was placed in the open space outside, and the three of them filled it with water one bucket at a time.

After it was filled with water, Yang Chan took out a small wooden box that exuded cold air and opened it. Inside was a red bead, which emitted strange heat energy.

Two things, one hot and one cold, put together like this?

"What is this?" asked the monkey.

"Fire spirit. It is condensed from the essence extracted from volcanic magma. It is very precious. I only have this one, and it is the leftover one I used many years ago. So, if you can't bear it, there will be no next time." After that, Yang Chan threw the fire spirit and the wooden box into the barrel.

Suddenly, the water in the entire barrel boiled!

"Here, help me put the medicinal ingredients in."

Looking at the boiling water and the rising heat, Monkey's face twitched: "Are you sure you want to help me break through my cultivation instead of making monkey soup?"

Wind Chime was also dumbfounded.

Yang Chan rolled her eyes at the two of them, reached out and grabbed a bundle of medicinal materials and threw them down. The medicinal materials quickly spread out, and the water in the bathtub was instantly dyed light yellow.

"Believe it or not, the Jade Cauldron even invited Yuanshi Tianzun for this recipe." After a pause, Yang Chan thought about it and said: "How do you think the first battle general in heaven is made? He can't eat it. That pain, don’t even think about becoming that person!”

"Yang Jian... did you cultivate in this way?" Monkey's face changed slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I believe you. If he can do it, I can do it too!"

The two began to put in the medicinal materials in order according to Yang Chan's request, but not all of them were put in, and some of the medicinal materials were left behind.

Not long after, the water in the entire barrel had turned dark brown, and the smell was like a pot of bitter Chinese medicine, which made people excited.

After brushing off the residue on his hands, Yang Chan said: "Go down and practice inside. Take the Nashen Pill first. You need three pills. One pill is not enough. If you don't have it there, I still have it here."

As he spoke, he took out a white medicine jar from his sleeve and placed it on the ground. It turned out to be a jar full of Nashen Pills!

According to Yang Chan's instructions, the monkey took three Naishen pills in one mouthful and suddenly felt dizzy.

This Nashen Pill is an anesthetic. Taking three pills at one time is obviously an overdose.

He slapped his forehead violently, and under the violent vibration, he finally stabilized his mind and did not fall down.

"Go down! Start absorbing spiritual power immediately after you go down. You have to go all out without any hesitation! Otherwise, it will really become monkey stew."

Overcoming the feeling of dizziness, the monkey quickly took off his clothes and jumped into the bathtub.

The wind chime on the side looked frightened.

The potion splashed, and a burning feeling quickly filled the whole body.

When the monkey was immersed in the water, his whole body felt unbearably hot, as if he was about to be scalded, and his nerves were tense.

A body that has been tempered to the limit of spiritual energy is naturally not comparable to an ordinary body. Naturally, you will not feel extreme pain after swallowing an excessive amount of Naishin Pill. But this heat is real!

All he can do now is believe. At least he believes that there is no need for Yang Chan to harm him for the time being, and there will be no benefit in harming him.

With his remaining consciousness, the monkey suppressed the panic in his heart, closed his eyes, and quickly meditated in the bathtub to absorb the spiritual energy.

As soon as he took a breath, he found that the spiritual power was surging and trying to flow out as usual, and slight pains quickly came from every corner of his body. But the slightest bit of pain now is nothing compared to the hot potion.

What was different from the past was that the outflowing spiritual power did not encounter the usual obstacles. It seemed that the skin all over the body had opened countless special channels under the influence of the heat of the potions, and the process of outflowing was extremely smooth.

And after these external spiritual powers left the body, they quickly built protection to block the invasion of heat and potions from the outside. Suddenly, the monkey felt that his body felt a lot more relaxed.

But this is only temporary.

Immediately afterwards, the body that lost the effect of the potion quickly closed the channel for the outflow.

With this closure, the spiritual power is immediately locked and cannot be released. And the skin that lost its protection was exposed to the potion again.

This process repeats itself in cycles.

Sweat seeped out crazily from his hot body, mixed with the potion, and quickly boiled.

At this time, it was not only the physical pain, but also the fear. It was like being tied up and placed on a burning fire. To meditate and practice in this boiling water, extraordinary determination is impossible to achieve.

However, at this time, it must be done even if it cannot be done.

Fortunately, these potions themselves were mixed with certain stimulant and anti-heat ingredients. Gritting his teeth, the monkey finally managed to survive.

It is undeniable that this is an extremely painful process. Even if you can barely maintain consciousness with the help of Naishen Pill, you will still faint at any time.

Always on the verge of collapse.

"Very good, that's it. As long as you keep repeating this process, the channel for the release of spiritual power will slowly be built. As long as the channel is successfully constructed, then this hurdle will be passed. It may take a while, no matter what, you must persist Go down." Yang Chan was somewhat relieved to see the monkey survive the first level.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Chan began to draw the potion from the bucket regularly, and then replenished the potion with medicinal materials according to the status of the potion extracted.

The wind chime is responsible for adding water to the bucket regularly to prevent the potion from evaporating in the high temperature.

It was already dusk in a blink of an eye.

Yang Chan reached out and touched the artery on the monkey's wet neck. She closed her eyes and felt it for a while, then said: "It's almost done, but we need to work harder. Open your mouth."

Seeing that the monkey didn't respond, Yang Chan gathered her strength and shouted, "I asked you to open your mouth! Do you hear me?"

The expression on the monkey's face was distorted by pain, his eyes were still closed, but he opened his mouth slightly in obedience.

The monkey in the bathtub is at war with his own mind. In this situation, his perception of the outside world has dropped to almost zero. Even if someone is standing in front of him and talking, he can't hear clearly even if he doesn't pay attention.

Yang Chan took out another medicine bottle, poured a few pills out, and stuffed them directly into the monkey's mouth.

"These medicines can give you enough physical energy to avoid collapse."

After saying that, he put away the medicine bottle, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and stayed away from the barrel by a foot.

It is indeed very uncomfortable to stay so close to this boiling barrel for a long time. Fortunately, the matter of dispensing the medicine has come to an end, and at least it will not be necessary to replenish it until after Chen.

"How long will it take?" The wind chime, still holding the small wooden bucket in his hand, came to Yang Chan and asked.

Since the beginning of this practice, to be precise, since the monkey entered the barrel and became convinced that this practice method is effective, Feng Chime's attitude towards Yang Chan has obviously improved a lot, which quite surprised Yang Chan.

"I don't know. It should be completed tonight. It's faster than expected. His spiritual energy absorption speed is really amazing. I've never seen him so fast." Yang Chan reached out and smoothed the bangs on his forehead. , now she was soaked with sweat inside and out.

If she didn't have to take care of the monkey, now she wanted to go back and take a shower and change her clothes.

A long-lost smile appeared on Feng Ling's face, and he asked cautiously: "Faster than Yang Jian?"

Yang Chan glanced sideways at her and said nothing. She picked up the cup she had put aside earlier and drank the water in her hands.

After a long time, Yang Chan said to the wind chime: "Something may happen in a while. When the time comes, remember to step aside and don't do anything."
