BTTH: I married Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate our marriage!

Chapter 275: Refining the Heavenly Flame! The Yao Clan’s Medicinal Ceremony!



"Brother Gu Fei..."

Xun'er didn't immediately reach for the pill he left behind. In her heart, it felt as though a burden had been lifted. Gu Fei's attitude had been clear- despite her painful separation from the heavenly flame, it only made him feel a sense of "sympathy".

"Brother, I hope you grow stronger," she murmured after a moment, then finally grasped the pill that was suspended in the air. However, she didn't consume it. Instead, she intended to keep it as a memento.

After leaving Xun'er's peaceful mountain, he immediately returned to his residence. His visit to deliver the pill was simply to help Xun'er heal from the injuries caused by her voluntary removal of the heavenly flame. As the top alchemist of his clan, it was just a small gesture of assistance. His attitude toward her, however, remained unchanged- like a broken mirror that could never be mended.

"Did the clan leader summon you for something urgent?" asked Xiao Yi Xian and Cai Lin.

"He gave me the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame," Gu Fei replied honestly, without hiding anything.

Hearing this, the group first expressed joy, but then seemed to fall silent, lost in thought.

"I'll need to enter seclusion for a while to refine this flame as soon as possible," Gu Fei informed them before heading toward his secret chamber. The heavy stone door slowly closed behind him.

Sitting cross-legged, he extended his hand, and the Heavenly Flame appeared, instantly releasing a scorching heat. The golden flame danced in his palm, exuding a tremendous pressure.

Without hesitation, Gu Fei reached into the flame with his other hand.

"Sizzle..."

The Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame clung to his hand, producing a sharp burning sound. However, with the help of the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, the pain remained manageable.

"Boom!"

Finally, he forcibly extracted the essence of the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame and swallowed it whole. As he activated his cultivation technique, his heavenly flame flared up, merging with the new one. The collision of the two powerful flames sent waves of energy throughout his body, causing the chamber to tremble, with cracks spreading along the walls. "Refine!"

Gu Fei growled, fully focusing on controlling his cultivation technique. The pink demonic flame surged toward the golden flame, engaging in a fierce internal battle. The two flames clashed violently inside him, creating a thunderous roar.

For three days, his body underwent gradual changes. Golden lines began to appear on his skin, emitting a faint glow.

After five days, his aura grew deeper and more mysterious. Two flame dragons, one pink and one golden, circled around him in harmony.

The temperature in the chamber had reached an unbearable level, even melting the stone walls. Thankfully, he had set up seals beforehand.

On the seventh day, he suddenly opened his eyes. His pupils flickered with gold and pink flames, like two miniature suns burning brightly.

A terrifying pressure erupted from his body, instantly shattering the entire chamber. "Success!"

Gu Fei let out a long breath, basking in the harmonious coexistence of the two powerful heavenly flames within him. He stood up and stretched, his joints cracking audibly as pure energy coursed through his body.

"Almost at the mid-six-star level..."

Gu Fei murmured to himself, a trace of joy flashing in his eyes. Refining the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame had significantly boosted his cultivation, bringing him close to mid six-star Dou Saint.

But Gu Fei wasn't satisfied yet.

"System, upgrade!"

Taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes and silently gave the command in his heart. 500,000 emotional points consumed, providing one moment of enlightenment.

The system's voice echoed in his mind. The next moment, Gu Fei felt an otherworldly sensation wash over him, as if his consciousness had left his body and entered a mysterious space. Time seemed to stop, and Gu Fei had no idea how long he spent in that space. When he opened his eyes again, three days had passed.

"Six-star late stage!"

Feeling the surge of power within him, Gu Fei smiled in satisfaction. This enlightenment had directly pushed him to the late stage of the six-star level, another significant leap in his

strength.

Stepping out of the chamber, Gu Fei basked in the warm sunlight, feeling refreshed.

"Father!"

Sensing the disturbance from earlier, everyone had been waiting outside. When they learned about his progress, they all felt happy for him.

"Husband, I've heard that the date for the Yao Clan Medicinal Ceremony is approaching," Xiao Yi Xian suddenly mentioned.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"The Medicinal Ceremony... I almost forgot about it during my seclusion," Gu Fei said with a raised brow and a slight smile.

"Husband, you're definitely planning to attend the ceremony, right?"

"Of course," he smiled and nodded. After all, who wouldn't seek fame? This ceremony, held

by the Yao Clan, was a grand event that determined the top alchemist in the world.

For any alchemist, it was the perfect opportunity to showcase their skills.

Moreover, he had other goals in mind- he hoped that Hun Huzi would attend. That way, he'd have a chance to get close to the legendary Nihility Devouring Flame.

If Xiao Ying (his flame spirit) could absorb part of the Devouring Flame, this trip to the Medicinal Ceremony would be a huge success.

"The Yao Clan is located in the southernmost part of the Central Plains, in the Shenglong Mountain Range. I've always wanted to visit that place," Cai Lin mused.

"That's right," Gu Fei nodded. "That mountain range may be a wild, dangerous region, filled with poisonous insects and fierce beasts, but thanks to the Yao Clan, it's become a paradise

for alchemists."

"I've heard the area is rich in rare medicinal herbs, and many alchemists travel from far and wide to gather ingredients," Xiao Yi Xian added with a smile.

"When the Medicinal Ceremony ends, I'll take you all on a tour of the Shenglong Mountains,"

he said, patting Xiao Yi Xian's head.

She nodded in agreement.

"Get ready, it's time for us to depart..."
