Chapter 238: Petrifying Gold Blood and Unprecedented Solution

An hour later, Cao Mao finished implanting his golden seed to his wives. Unlike the usual, he only did it once with each girl as his semen contained the gold element Qi, which might be harmful to the girls had they absorbed too much.

Because of the deed, the pressure in his dantian and his blood vessels had been temporarily relieved. Cao Mao sat cross-legged, feeling his gold blood and gold element Qi in his veins to adjust its balance.

Zhang Junyi\'s curse spell finally wore off as well. As soon as the spell no longer sealed Cao Mao\'s power, the gold element Qi exploded.

Cao Mao\'s skin color changed from brown to gold. However, his body slowly shrunk as the muscle fibers became compact and gotten tougher.

Yet, the evolution process was uncomfortable. Everything in his body became stiff to the point that Cao Mao thought that he had become a rock.

A few seconds later, Cao Mao had finally located the problem. It came from his golden blood!

The gold element Qi and the golden blood inside him started petrifying Cao Mao from the inside, slowly turning him into a lump of gold!

Sensing the crisis, Cao Mao drank more spring water, hoping to cleanse the hardening muscle and blood.

It worked as Cao Mao had guessed. The spring water maintained his fluid balance, stopping his body from the petrification effect.

Still, it was not enough. The gold element Qi kept surging as his bone marrow continued to produce more golden blood cells.

The problem was no longer about containing his energy in his body. It was the side effect and the constitution balance, aka his foundation. Unless Cao Mao could control his bone marrow to stop producing more golden blood and gold element Qi, his body would soon turn into a gold rock because of his weird self-taught cultivation method.

Since the bone marrow contained the stem cells of red blood cells, white blood cells, and many pathogens that maintained the lifespan of the entire body, using an advanced element Qi to refine his bone marrow when he was still at 4th-stage wasn\'t a practical method.

If refining bone marrow with advanced element Qi had been practical, many cultivators would have used it to refine their blood with advanced element Qi long ago.

For example, had Liu Bian refined his bone marrow with his shadow element Qi, his bone marrow would have produced rotten blood, which might kill him from the inside. The same applied to Zhang Junyi\'s plasma element or Li Jue\'s semen element. These types of element Qi weren\'t compatible with mammal\'s bone marrow unless they had ascended to the nascent soul realm when they started to search for a way to create a spiritual constitution to replace the physical body.

This was the reason why the Eye of Heaven had been suspiciously lenient. In fact, the Buddha\'s blessing and the mysterious sponsor\'s threat were just an excuse.

The eye had predicted that Cao Mao\'s gold element Qi would soon solidify all liquid and turn the entire body into gold. Therefore, there was no reason for it to exert more strength to provoke the dao gods, who had been supporting Cao Mao in secret.

Instead, the Eye of Heaven purposely accelerated the evolution process, helping Cao Mao lifting Zhang Junyi\'s curse earlier with its lightning Qi. Then, the rampaging gold element Qi would become the tribulation itself.

Realizing his mistake, Cao Mao\'s brain started gathering information inside his body. He calculated and observed the chemistry between his golden blood and its reaction throughout his arteries, bone marrow, and his organs.

Despite being flooded with system notifications, Cao Mao didn\'t pay attention to the semi-transparent blue screens. He also hadn\'t realized that someone had helped him during this dark time.

It took Cao Mao a few seconds to come up with a chemistry formula and the solution. He drank several liters of spring water to soften his muscle and took out several ingredients and a cauldron, preparing to concoct a pill.

But the items before him were the four hearts of the divine beasts – The main ingredients for the Yin Yang Divine Vein! Several herbs, which were the catalysts and the supplements for the divine pills had been brought out as well.

All ingredients for the divine pill were laid out in front of Cao Mao!

The intense presence of divine hearts woke up the yin slaves, who had just had sex with Cao Mao. They stared at the sealed glass crates in shock.

"Miaomiao, what are you doing?" Wei Yuan sensed something odd from Cao Mao\'s aura. His aura fluctuated, and his Qi slowly turned similar to pure gold element Qi.

Cao Mao bit his lower lips. Again, he was about to do something drastic and impossible, "Saving my life."

"What?"

Ju Shoufen also woke up. She didn\'t bother putting on her clothes as she jumped toward Cao Mao, standing in front of him.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!?"

"As I said, I\'m trying to survive."

"WHAT!? SURVIVE!? FROM WHAT!?"

"My rampaging Qi…"

Ju Shoufen touched Cao Mao\'s wrist with her index finger and middle finger, feeling his pulse and his Qi.

Her face grimaced when she realized what had happened to Cao Mao\'s body. His gold element Qi kept building up in his blood cells, and it was about to turn Cao Mao into a lump of gold!

"Why the hell did you refine your bone marrow and blood with gold element Qi!? It\'s fine if you refine your bone marrow with any basic element Qi, but an advanced element will kill you!"

As Ju Shoufen was still in shock, Cao Mao ignored Ju Shoufen and manipulated his Qi to rip the seal talismans off the crates!

"You…"

Ju Shoufen realized what Cao Mao had been trying to do.

The hearts of these legendary beasts pulsed and released their divine will, which attracted everybody\'s attention, including the elders and Zhao Bao.

Because of the sudden uproar, everyone rushed toward Wei Yuan\'s house right away.

Then, they found yin slaves, Ju Shoufen, and Wei Yuan, who were all naked. Yet, everyone didn\'t care about them since their attention was on the ingredients in front of Cao Mao.

"Miaomiao! What are you doing!?" Jia Wenhe was panicked as these pulsing hearts could still kill everybody if they were not processed properly.

Cao Mao ignored the commotion. He read the recipe guideline while he calculated the temperature and process in his mind.

As Cao Mao\'s gold element Qi had surged, his mind, constitution, and life essence had been enhanced the same way how Qiang Sui had used his domain force to buff his underlings.

The first preparation, the quality and the endurance of the alchemist, had been completed. Cao Mao steeled his heart and extended his hand to touch the dragon\'s heart.

As soon as Cao Mao touched the azure dragon\'s heart, it revealed an illusion of the colossus azure divine dragon. Then, the illusion roared.

Everyone under the 6th-stage was blown away from the house. Even the wooden house shattered from the intense will of the dragon.

The yin slaves and Wei Yuan vomited several mouthfuls of blood, and they bled through their eyes and ears. Everyone collapsed on the ground while their mind went blank.

Fortunately, the mild gold element Qi and their life essence had protected the yin slaves from the instant-kill roar of the divine dragon. As long as they could rest for a few days, they would recover.

Zhao Bao had cast a domain shield to cover himself and his disciple on time. After the roar had ended, the monk rushed toward the injured girls and covered them with his spare clothes. Then, he started healing them with his light element Qi.

As for Ma Moxi, he still had the charisma of a protagonist. Although he was flung away like other yin slaves, his gold element Qi and wood Qi saved his life. Moreover, he instantly recovered after he had absorbed more Qi from Heaven and Earth Pagoda in his soul.

Ma Ping and other elders were also injured from the dragon\'s will. They coughed and spat a mouthful of blood as some of their blood vessels burst. Also, they were unable to move as their legs had lost their strength.

On the other hand, Cao Mao, who had suffered from the direct impact, was still fine. He held a spatial ring, which contained Hollowed Spring Water, under his tongue and slowly pouring the water down his throat.

Although Cao Mao survived against the will of the azure dragon with the plot-armor healing water, his organs had been severely damaged. Still, as Cao Mao\'s body had been broken and repaired, the gold element Qi and his life essence continued to reinforce it, repeatedly refining his constitution.

After surviving the dragon\'s roar, Cao Mao sent his gold element Qi into the dragon\'s heart and poured a portion of surplus energy inside it.

The dragon\'s heart shook and stopped resisting. It devoured the gold element Qi as if it was its favorite food.

A minute later, the heart slowly changed color into gold. The will of the azure dragon went into dormant, falling asleep as if it had been sealed once more. The illusion also faded to nothingness.

The azure dragon\'s heart had been subdued, but the others had not.

The three other hearts also unleashed their power as if they were envious of the azure dragon\'s heart. They targeted Cao Mao, suppressing him with their domineering presence. Yet, they didn\'t try to kill him as they wanted to extort the gold Qi from Cao Mao.

Cao Mao felt like three mountains suddenly fell on top of his body. Yet, he sneered at them.

"I know you want my Qi. Just be a good boy and I\'ll feed you!"

Cao Mao poured his excess Qi into the White Tiger\'s heart, Black Turtle\'s heart, and the Vermillion Bird\'s heart in order.

These hearts of divine beasts acted like they were on drugs. They calmed down and fell asleep.

Cao Mao also heaved a long sigh of relief as he unloaded half of his excess Qi to someone else, and he managed to catch his breath. He kept on drinking the spring water to make himself bloat, soften the hardened muscle tissues and his blood.

However, his ordeal was far from over. As his bone marrow received more water, they absorbed some of them and produced more gold element Qi.

It turned into an endless loop. As long as Cao Mao\'s bone marrow had enough water and energy, they would keep creating more golden blood cells. And if too many golden blood cells had taken over his body, everything would be hardened and turn into gold. Then, Cao Mao would need to drink more spring water, and he would automatically feed his bone marrow.

Cao Mao needed something to break this loop, and he stared at the sleeping hearts of divine beasts with his dark eyes.

"Senior Jia! Senior Ju! Ma Moxi! Are you three still alive!?"

Ma Moxi got back on his feet. He wiped the blood on his mouth, "Is it about the gold element Qi? Jesus Christ, did you eat my pallet or what!?"

Jia Wenhe and Ju Shoufen had also regained their senses. They stomped their feet to get the feeling of their legs back.

Ju Shoufen put on her clothes during the chaos. Then, without the need for Cao Mao\'s instruction, she knew what Cao Mao had planned to do. Ju Shoufen began processing the catalyst herbs, "I can\'t touch to hearts. I\'ll help you with the herbs."

Jia Wenhe had also guessed Cao Mao\'s intention, "I\'ll handle Yin and Yang catalysts. Be careful with those things, Miaomiao."

"... These ingredients," Ma Moxi recognized them as his pagoda also had a pill recipe for Yin Yang Divine Vein. Unfortunately, he couldn\'t use his auto-pill-making cheat to make a real version of the pill since he wasn\'t strong enough. His pagoda required him to be at least a core pillar expert before it could grant Ma Moxi an access to the divine pills.

Cao Mao turned to Ma Moxi, "Moxi, I know what you\'re thinking. Tell me the truth, can you process one of them?"

"… I don\'t think so. I can instantly make pills, but these ingredients are beyond my ability."

"Okay, I need you to keep watch on the other hearts while I\'m processing one of them at a time. If they wake up, pour your gold element Qi in there. I\'ll take care of the rest."

"Roger that, boss. Just don\'t let it roar again. Everyone is going to die at this rate."

"I know!"

Cao Mao, Jia Wenhe, Ju Shoufen, and Ma Moxi teamed up to make the divine pill during the unprecedented time. Although Cao Mao felt bad for forcing everyone to help him save his skin, he had no choice at the moment.

He needed this divine pill to reinforce his dantian and his constitution ASAP! Otherwise, he might die today!
