<strong><u>Chapter 227: Detaching The me Seed</u></strong>


    Within the bright cave, the green-colored me writhed intensely. Traces of prominent distortion clearly appeared in the air surrounding the me following the writhing of the cluster of the me seedling. It was unexpected that the ‘Green Lotus Core me’s’ temperature would be so terrifying...


    As the ‘Green Lotus Core me’ gradually became wilder, Yao Lao, who was first to sense this, swiftly spread out his powerful Spiritual Strength andpletely covered the entire cave. At the same time, he isted the extremely high temperature that appeared in the cave.


    In midair, the green-colored me’s, erged by the wind, expanded by nearly a hundred times in the blink of an eye. Following the change of its size, the originally warm and soothing me had be wild and violent. The me whistled as it writhed, releasing a ‘chi chi’ sound. The surrounding air was also incinerated by the hot green me into nothingness.


    Xiao Yan focused his gaze on the enormous green me in midair before turning his head around to look at Yao Lao. He waited for thetter to nod his head. Then he took in a deep breath of hot air. His hand, which was covered by a blood-colored cuticle, shakingly aimed at the green me and released a violent suction force.


    When sucking the ‘Heavenly me’, the suction force, which could usually easily suck a huge rock over was only able to slowly move the ‘Heavenly me’ through the air. Moreover, each time the shapeless suction force came into contact with the ‘Green Lotus Core me’, it could only endure for two to three seconds before it would be incinerated into nothingness by the terrifying heat.


    Therefore, even though Xiao Yan and the ‘Green Lotus Core me’ may have only been a few meters apart, the amount of Dou Qi exhausted was an enormous.


    Xiao Yan’s eyes stared intently at the green-colored me that was slowly moving over. His breathing was somewhat rapid and his forehead was covered in perspiration. The perspiration followed the contours of his face as it flowed down. Under the reflection from the blood-colored cuticle, it appeared to be droplets of bright red, fresh blood.


    As the ‘Green Lotus Core me’ gradually grew closer, the terrifying heat energy that it emitted caused even the face of Yao Lao to the side to reveal some shock. Clearly, the energy contained within this ‘Heavenly me’, that was ranked neenth on the ‘Heavenly me Ranking’, seemed to have exceeded even his expectations.


    When the enormous green-colored me stopped around a meter in front of Xiao Yan, the terrifying heat that it emitted still caused some of the hard green stone to gradually crack despite Yao Lao having used his Spiritual Strength to iste the inside of the cave. A momentter, some of the huge stones transformed into numerous small stones which were incinerated into piles of green-colored fine powder.


    Yao Lao’s face was filled with seriousness as he eyed the huge green-colored me that had stopped in front of Xiao Yan. The somewhat blurry body surface of Yao Lao suddenly began to fluctuate intensely like a water wave. Seeing his body’s change, Yao Lao’s expression changed slightly. His pair of hands formed seals in a lightning like matter and let out a low cry. Instantly, thick white-colored me swiftly rose from his body and gradually stopped when it covered all of it.


    After summoning the ‘Bone Chilling me’, Yao Lao once again became calm. He took a few small steps back, stared intently at the writhing green-colored me with a serious, old face, and quickly said, “Extend your hands into the green-colored me. The middle of the cluster of the me should form the wisp of the me seed. Take it out! Hurry!”


    Hearing Yao Lao’s words, Xiao Yan’s body trembled slightly. Under the blood-colored cuticle, a pair of eyes were opened wide. Xiao Yan pulled the corner of his mouth in some disbelief. Extend his hand into the me? Was that not seeking death?


    The dumfounded thought swiftly shed across his heart. A momentter, he calmed down his mind from its stunned state. Since Yao Lao had told him this, then he should do as told. He did not have even the slightest experience when it came to swallowing a ‘Heavenly me’. Therefore, he could only follow Yao Lao’s every order...


    Although when swallowing the ‘Heavenly me’, any little mistake would result in the bacsh from the ‘Heavenly me’ turning one into a pile of ashes, Xiao Yan was able to give Yao Lao an unreserved amount of trust.


    Xiao Yan nodded his chin without anyone noticing before suddenly raising his head. He stared intently at the green-colored me that was getting closer. His slightly trembling hand opened and closed slightly, preparing to charge into the ‘Heavenly me’ at any moment.


    When the ‘Green Lotus Core me’ arrived to a spot around two to three feet from Xiao Yan, the surrounding hard mountain rock ground had already been incinerated into a huge hole. This result was something that urred even with Yao Lao’s effort of protection in ce. If Yao Lao were to withdraw the protection from the Spiritual Strength, the entire mountain peak would be incinerated into a pile of ashes in an extremely short time.


    The green lotus emitted a faint green-colored glow as Xiao Yan sat cross legged on its lotus seat. Thisyer of glow helped Xiao Yan block arge portion of the ‘Heavenly me’ temperature. Even with this, there was still some residual temperature that managed to seep in, causing the blood-colored cuticle to form droplets of bright red liquid.


    Xiao Yan’s dark ck eyes were reflected the green-colored demonic and exotic me as he eyed the enormous me that had stopped in front of him. His throat rolled slightly before he clenched his teeth violently and slowly extended his hand, which was covered with the blood-colored cuticles, into the cluster of the ‘Green Lotus Core me’.


    Following his hand’s gradual extension into the ‘Green Lotus Core me’, theyer of blood-colored cuticles on his arm began to swiftly melt. Droplets of blood like liquid repeatedly dripped down. Each time a drop of liquid left his hand, it would swiftly be incinerated by the green-colored me into nothingness.


    Although the blood-colored cuticle melted extremely quickly within the ‘Heavenly me’, the medicinal strength of the ‘Blood Lotus Pill’ within Xiao Yan’s body released a never ending amount of dark and cold energy as the cuticle melted. These energies passed through his Qi Paths before swiftly andpletely repairing the melted blood-colored cuticle on his hand.


    Under this cycle of continuous melting and recement, Xiao Yan’s hand was finallypletely extended into the ‘Heavenly me’.


    Being in such close contact with the ‘Green Lotus Core me’, the blood-colored cuticle all over Xiao Yan’s body began to show signs of melting with varying intensity. After which, the blood-colored liquid dripped down like flowing water. At a nce, it appeared as though fresh blood was continuously being emitted from within his pores. HIs delicate and handsome face was also currently covered by the tumbling fresh blood, like a demon that had climbed out of hell. Overall, he appeared extremely terrifying.


    Xiao Yan stared intently at the continuously writhing green-colored me with unblinking eyes. His hand swiftly grasped within the ‘Heavenly me’. This was the first time he hade into such close contact with a ‘Heavenly me’ that was not controlled by anyone. Although there was some bizarre novelty, there was a greater amount of uneasiness and apprehension. Under this kind of situation, if the blood-colored cuticle on his hand failed to be reced in time, then Xiao Yan would turn into a pile of ashes within a short few seconds.


    From underneath the blood-colored cuticle, perspiration dripped from Xiao Yan’s forehead, entering his eyes. There was a soreness and swelling pain in his eyes from the salty sweat but he did not dare blink his eyes even once. He tightly pressed his mouth together as his palm slowly made its way within the green-colored me inch by inch.


    When Xiao Yan was searching for the wisp of me seed of the ‘Green Lotus Core me’, he could not helped but be shocked and amazed by the high temperature of the ‘Heavenly me’. The temperature it contained had far exceeded Xiao Yan’s expectations. Even though he had prepared many things, the terrifying high temperature carried by the ‘Green Lotus Core me’ still slowly seeped past the blood-colored cuticle and the green lotus energy cover’s defense, causing the skin of Xiao Yan, who had been hiding under them, to be red, much like a searing hot iron.


    Xiao Yan clenched his teeth as he bared the intense burning pain. Through the corner of his eyes, he swiftly nced at his surroundings and was somewhat appalled to find that the small cave had expanded to two times it’s original size.


    At this time, the ‘Green Lotus Core me’ seemed to have realized the intentions of Xiao Yan. Instantly, it started turn and the natural energy contained within the surrounding space began to riot. Multi-colored mottled energy slowly flowed, much like a colorful river, appearing extremely dazzling.


    The multi-colored mottled energy spiraled around the surroundings of the ‘Green Lotus Core me’. asionally, a wisp of me would pounce on it. Immediately, these round shaped mottled energy rings would appear like donuts which had been bitten off by a dog, leaving it with missing and chipped edges.


    Following the sudden uprising of the ‘Green Lotus Core me,’ the originally terrifying temperature within the cave immediately rose sharply. The surroundings within the mountain cave began to swiftly crack under this sudden sharp rise in temperature. Numerous huge crack lines quietly spread and in only a moment, they covered the entire mountain cave. Looking at the interior which had been damaged until it was full of holes, it probably would have copsed long ago had it not been for Yao Lao’s support.


    “What a terrifying destructive power. If it were to be thrown into a city, it might be able to incinerate a huge city into ruins within an hour.” Eyeing the inner part of the mountain cave which had undergone a drastic change in only a mere moment, palpitations surfaced on Xiao Yan’s face. He muttered the words before quickly turning his gaze towards Yao Lao.


    At this moment, Yao Lao had a tension filled face as he stared at every action the green-colored me made. Upon sensing Xiao Yan looking over, the tensed face of Yao Lao became slightly gentle and gave Xiao Yan aforting smile.


    Xiao Yan faced the forceful smile of Yao Lao and nodded. Suddenly, his eyebrows lifted. An unrestrained joy surged over his face as he hurriedly turned his head around, focusing his gaze intently within the green-colored me.


    The hand that was covered by a blood-colored cuticle crazily started wildly grasped around within the green-colored me. An instantter, the swiftly dancing hand suddenly stiffened. A smile gradually climbed onto the corner of Xiao Yan’s mouth.


    On one side, Yao Lao gave a huge sigh of relief when he saw Xiao Yan’s expression. Although the blood armor coagted by the ‘Blood Lotus Pill’ was strong, it could not withstand a prolonged grilling by the ‘Heavenly me’. Once the blood armor vaporized because of the exhaustion of its energy, Xiao Yan’s attempt at swallowing of the ‘Heavenly me’ this time around would have to be dered as a failure.


    Xiao Yan’s hand tightly grabbed something that’s substance was like that of an actual seed. He clenched his hand and withstood the burning pain from his palm as he gradually withdrew his hand from within the green-colored me.


    When Xiao Yan’s hand had finally withdrew from the green-colored me, he found a wisp of green-coloredva liquid that was squirming in his palm.


    “Is this the me Seed of the ‘Green Lotus Core me’?” Staring at the wisp of green-coloredva that was emitting a frightening temperature, Xiao Yan blinked his eyes and softly muttered.
