Invincibility starts when I see the BOSS health bar.

Chapter 944 New
Time seemed to blur at this moment, becoming almost imperceptible to Fang Yu.

Because at this moment, he and his entire mind were completely immersed in the operation of the profound technique "Pure Blazing Sun Heart Sutra", his five senses were suppressed, and he forgot himself and the world.

The sounds of the wind, birdsong, and even the changing light in the courtyard were shut out by this deep state of cultivation; only the pure, molten power surging within his body pulsed ceaselessly.

He was like a frozen stone statue, immersed in a sea of ​​power, swimming freely, completely losing his precise perception of the passage of time.

until……

"Ms. sir?"

Ding Hui's familiar and gentle voice, tinged with a hint of probing, suddenly rang out from behind him like a pebble thrown into a calm lake.

The sound wasn't loud, but it precisely pierced through the barrier of his consciousness, gently shattering that deep state of cultivation.

Fang Yu paused slightly, and the intense spiritual energy circulating within him paused for a moment before slowly subsiding.

So... this is the legendary feeling of sudden enlightenment?

A profound and mysterious sense of clarity had not yet completely dissipated, lingering in my mind.

He slowly opened his eyes, as if awakening from a thousand-year slumber.

His vision was slightly blurry at first, but then he focused clearly on Ding Hui's face, which was filled with concern.

Upon seeing that familiar figure, an irrepressible smile naturally spread across his lips.

"nailed it?"

Fang Yu's voice was deep and magnetic, a result of his cultivation, as he looked at her hands.

Ding Hui didn't say anything, but gently stepped forward and showed him the bowl of medicine she was carefully holding in her hands.

The medicinal liquid in the bowl was a deep color, still steaming with wisps of white vapor, and a rich and unique medicinal aroma instantly filled the air.

"While it's hot," she whispered, her eyes filled with eager anticipation.

However, Fang Yu did not rush to take the bowl of medicinal soup.

A thought struck him, and he expertly focused his mind on the depths of his consciousness, bringing up the system panel.

A concise and clear notification message was prominently displayed.

[System notification: Congratulations to the player for diligently practicing the [Pure Sun Heart Sutra], increasing their proficiency.]

[Pure Blazing Sun Heart Sutra [Mind and Soul Level Beginner/Initial Understanding] → Pure Blazing Sun Heart Sutra [Mind and Soul Level Beginner/Slightly Accomplished]

In just one intensive training session, this extremely powerful and yang-oriented cultivation technique has actually broken through from the initial Wood Realm level to the Soul Realm?!

So engrossed in his cultivation, Fang Yu didn't even hear the system notification sound.

An indescribable surge of joy welled up inside him, and he almost blurted out, "Wonderful!"

Immediately, an absurd yet extremely inflated sense of self-identity surged forth.

Is this, damn it, the feeling of an unstoppable force that a peerless genius possesses?

Jie Jie Jie!

Fang Yu couldn't help but let out a wicked laugh in his heart, never expecting that he would have such an extraordinary day.

The elation of being "favored" by talent is indeed intoxicating, and he was almost caught in a vortex of self-indulgence.

However, Fang Yu was a man who had experienced life and death, and he still retained a sense of clarity in the depths of his mind.

Before this overwhelming joy could spread, he forcibly suppressed it.

After all, the current incredible cultivation efficiency relies entirely on the cultivation experience gained from Master Qian after the victory with the Wooden Fish Three-Stage Artifact, which is beyond the reach of one's own true innate talent.

If we abandon these external reliances and rely solely on arduous practice to comprehend other obscure techniques...

The truth about his mediocre talent and difficult path would likely be exposed immediately.

Quickly regaining his composure, Fang Yu reached out and took the bowl of "Heart-Purifying Soup" handed to him by Ding Hui.

The dark brown liquid emitted scorching heat and had a strange, pungent odor.

He didn't care about tasting it or his image. He tilted his head back, his Adam's apple bobbed a few times, and with a few gulps, he drank the whole bowl of bitter, scalding hot medicine in one go.

Almost the instant the medicine entered my stomach, the familiar system notification popped up again right on time.

[System Notification: Congratulations, player, for consuming the Pure Heart Soup of Hatred, gaining 5301 experience points...]

hiss--

It can actually be directly converted into 53 precious free attribute points?!
Fang Yu's heart skipped a beat, and another surge of uncontrollable joy welled up inside him!

You should know that such a precious medicinal soup could not possibly be just one bowl; there will definitely be more to come!

By this calculation, the accumulated gains are comparable to hunting down a powerful demon with considerable strength!
However, this thought flashed by quickly, and amidst the excitement, a slight sense of disappointment quietly emerged.

Of course, compared to the previous days of risking one's life and fighting demons, this "drug-fueled" approach of sitting back and fishing is still less profitable.

Those days of living on the edge, my experience points increased dramatically, like a flood bursting its banks...

Thinking of the torrent of experience that would form when the demons fell, Fang Yu subconsciously licked his dry lower lip with the tip of his tongue, a fierce and greedy glint flashing in his eyes.

This unintentionally revealed dangerous aura happened to fall into the eyes of Ding Hui, who had been watching him closely.

Little did she know that Fang Yu was thinking of a scene of slaying demons; she only thought that Fang Yu was savoring the taste of the soup he had just eaten.

After all, he drank so heartily, even licking his lips as if he wanted more.

Ding Hui's delicate eyebrows immediately rose slightly in surprise, and she tilted her head, revealing a puzzled expression.

Because... this Pure Heart Soup of Hatred is a potent medicinal soup that she carefully brewed using the Fruit of Hatred as the main ingredient, supplemented with a variety of potent medicinal herbs!
It is normal that most of these kinds of medicinal soups taste spicy, bitter, and difficult to swallow.

Doctors always prioritize the efficacy of medicine; who cares about whether it tastes good?
In her opinion, no matter how bad the medicine tasted, she could just pinch her nose and force it down.

When survival is paramount, who cares about the pleasures of the palate? It's unheard of!

"Husband...do you like this...flavor?"

Her tone was incredulous and tentative, "Next time I'll cook something for you..."

"No need! Absolutely no need!"

Fang Yu was so startled that he quickly waved his hand to interrupt, raising his voice several decibels.

Just kidding, he couldn't possibly accept such "kindness"!
The taste of that herbal soup was practically a biological weapon, comparable to swill mixed with rotten, withered leaves.

He was enjoying the tangible pleasure of his attribute points skyrocketing! It had absolutely nothing to do with the taste!

"Uh, I mean..." Fang Yu quickly composed himself and changed the subject.

"I wanted to ask, are the remaining medicinal soups... ready?"

"We've already been holding on."

Ding Hui nodded slightly. "I'll definitely send it over before tomorrow morning. I can use this time to work on the formula and see if I can remove some of the... um... overpowering odor without changing the efficacy."

When the topic turned to pharmacological improvements, her eyes lit up, purely out of her own interest in in-depth research into pharmacology.

Fang Yu knew this well, and unless he was in a great hurry to take it, he would usually let her immerse herself in the fun of this exploration and not disturb her.

"So good."

Fang Yu nodded and got up to stretch his muscles.

"Then I'm going to go to 'Juemen' to find out if they have any tricky jobs available."

There are two purposes for this trip.

First, you can accept tasks to earn resources.

Secondly... after all, they had just killed that Thousand Hall Master of the Foolish Underworld. Although the scene was disguised fairly well, some clues were still left behind.

While hiding in the Ouyang Mansion, this fortress, was certainly safe and secure, it also meant being completely isolated from the world, like a blind and deaf person.

Only by keeping abreast of external developments and utilizing a comprehensive intelligence network can we truly be well-informed and prepared for any eventuality.

"Ah."

Ding Hui had no objection, but simply advised, "Be careful in everything."

At the same time, she flipped her slender hand and took out a strangely shaped object from her sleeve, handing it over.

It was not the perfectly round shape of an ordinary pill, but a finely textured wooden pill, its surface covered with lifelike wood grain, swirling and intertwining like a deep vortex, as if trying to draw one's gaze in.

"This is...?" Fang Yu took it with a puzzled look. It was cool and solid to the touch and quite heavy.

"It's made by carefully refining half of the 'Abomination Tree' as the main ingredient, combined with several auxiliary medicines, and is called [Abomination Without Partiality Pill]," Ding Hui explained, her expression showing a hint of meticulousness after research.

"That abomination tree has extremely ancient growth rings and is of exceptionally high quality, but correspondingly, the domineering toxicity it contains is also far beyond the ordinary."

Her tone grew serious: "If this pill were given to an ordinary martial artist, it would instantly transform into a deadly poison upon entering the throat. Even highly skilled experts would have to expend enormous effort to barely suppress the toxins, suffering immense pain. This is because the 'hatred' primal power contained in this pill, pharmacologically speaking, is only an exceptionally nourishing and restorative tonic for demons! For humans, it is an incurable, naturally occurring poison! However…"

Ding Hui changed the subject, her clear gaze fixed on Fang Yu, "Husband, you are special. Your body may be able to withstand this thing, or even... transform it."

Fang Yu understood instantly.

The "special" that Ding Hui referred to was one of his most secret reliance at this moment—an extremely powerful special physique!

This constitution allows him to break the rules and forcibly absorb the "supplements" that should belong to demons.

Adding to the unknown influence of that mysterious "believer" identity... to be honest, even Fang Yu himself was a little confused about the exact structure of this body.

But at least for now, it seems to have all the advantages and no disadvantages.

"I'll give it a try!" Without the slightest hesitation, a sharp glint of anticipation flashed in Fang Yu's eyes. He raised his hand, opened his mouth, and swallowed the [Hate-Free Pill] whole!

The pill entered the stomach, and initially there was no violent reaction, but after only a few breaths...

A surge of scalding heat suddenly erupted from his dantian, flowing wildly through his limbs and bones like burning lava!

Immediately afterwards, an intense itching sensation, originating from the inside out and spreading throughout the entire body, suddenly erupted!
It was as if countless tiny tree roots were trying to break through his skin barrier and burst out of his body!

The body produced a strong rejection reaction!

A sense of unease suddenly arose in Fang Yu's heart, and he immediately looked down to examine his bare arms.

In an instant, countless fine goosebumps appeared on the skin of both arms. These small bumps rapidly deformed and flattened at a speed visible to the naked eye, intertwining and connecting with each other, forming a rough, twisted, and eerie pattern on the skin surface, like the bark of an ancient tree!

"Husband?!"

Upon witnessing this change, Ding Hui's expression suddenly changed drastically, and she hurriedly reached out to step forward.

However, before her hand could even touch Fang Yu's arm, the bark-like phenomenon that was rapidly spreading across his skin abruptly stopped!

call--!
A deep, eerie dark red blood suddenly surged through Fang Yu's subcutaneous blood vessels!

This crimson color carried an overwhelming and domineering power. Wherever it passed, it was like molten lava pouring over ice, instantly suppressing the restless, wild, and mutated forces!

Those bark-like patterns quickly melted, decomposed, and faded under the wash of dark red blood... No, they didn't disappear, but were forcibly devoured, assimilated, and absorbed by a more powerful force!
The Blood of the Azure Demon!

Fang Yu immediately understood.

Sure enough! This so-called demonic tonic also contains terrifying "toxicity".

For other demons, this toxicity might be something they can directly withstand, absorb, and transform due to their powerful physiques.

However, given his current special state of being half-human and half-demon, the most realistic approach is to forcefully crush, assimilate, and absorb the powerful demonic energy within his bloodline!

As for pure martial artists? Even if their physique is as strong as a dragon's, this [Hate-Free Pill] is a purely deadly poison to them. They cannot gain any benefit from it, and it only leads to destruction!
Just as the demonic blood surged and the assimilation was completed, the familiar system notification rang in Fang Yu's mind once again.

[System Notification: Congratulations to the player for consuming the [Abomination Elixir], gaining 10000 experience points...]

100 points!! A full 100 attribute points!!!

Even though he was mentally prepared, Fang Yu's heart still pounded wildly at this huge windfall, and his eyes shone with intense surprise!
However, the surprises were far from over!
Another system notification followed immediately, arriving unexpectedly!

[System Notification: The player has fully absorbed the effects of the [Hate-Free Pill], resulting in a boost to their demonic bloodline abilities and granting them a new ability: [Tree Body Substitute].]

[Tree Body Substitute: By absorbing the buffs gained from the [Abomination Elixir], the special "Abomination Sap" that grows within the body can be ignited and activated. When the sap fills the entire body, an "Abomination Tree Body" condensed outside the body can absorb an attack in place of the main body the instant the main body is attacked. The main body can then use the branching roots that instantly spread from its feet to move quickly and unpredictably over short distances.]

Oh? !

New abilities!
Fang Yu was shocked and instantly understood the power of this ability.

This is an excellent skill for both survival and surprise attacks!

He couldn't wait to experience this new power, and with a thought...
Localized demonization!
A ripping sound, like dry tree bark tearing and plucking, rang out.

Fang Yu's arm skin was quickly covered with a dark, thick, withered wood texture, and at the same time, a stronger and more explosive feeling came from his arm.

At first glance, it seems to be just a change in skin texture.

However, upon closer inspection, one can discover a deeper, more vibrant dark red color flowing beneath the withered skin!
