Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and Lan Hua was still absorbing enormous karma, her pained expression undiminished.

Within the middle dantian, the crimson lotus fire, stimulated by endless karmic forces, grew increasingly ferocious, and its color became slightly alluring.

The karma refined by the Crimson Lotus Flame flowed entirely into the dantian, becoming part of the primordial spirit.

At this moment, Lan Hua was unaware that her cultivation level was rapidly increasing.

Tan Mingyue, standing on the periphery, looked pleased, thinking to himself that in a few more days, the Crimson Lotus Flame would have a chance to evolve.

Wang Hongyuan and the others looked somewhat relieved. Seeing that Lan Hua had persisted until now, they were all thinking that there shouldn't be any major trouble later.

Several evil cultivators and demonic cultivators not far from Lan Hua stopped one after another, their faces showing pain, clearly forcing themselves to endure.

As powerful beings at the Venerable level, they absorb the most karma.

However, it didn't have time to refine it, and if it continued, there was a possibility that it would explode.

Wang Hongyuan sneered, "You two, Lord Evil Lord and Lord Demon Lord, have such small appetites! You're full so quickly?"

Demon Lord Huang Feibao rolled his eyes. "If you're so capable, then go ahead and do it!"

Wang Hongyuan said, "I know my own limitations. I can't handle this thing!"

After a few more words of bickering, Lan Hua, who was in the center, suddenly began to tremble all over. As if it had come to life, karma surged wildly into Lan Hua's body.

"Oh no, Lan Hua is about to get out of control!"

Tan Mingyue hurriedly said, "Lanhua, hold on! You must not let karma take over your body. Guard your mind!"

Karma continued to invade her body relentlessly. Lan Hua did not respond; her eyes gradually dimmed, turning gray, and then pitch black.

Tan Mingyue and Wang Hongyuan exchanged a glance, realizing the seriousness of the situation. If they allowed the karma to continue entering the body, Lan Hua would definitely not survive more than half an hour.

The two of them worked together to forcibly sever the connection between Lan Hua and karma, pulling him outside the Buddhist order.

However, even though Lan Hua escaped the influence of karma, a huge amount of karma remained within her body that had not been resolved.

Within her middle dantian, the crimson lotus fire burned wildly, like a runaway horse, beyond Lan Hua's control.

"Lanhua, calm down!"

Tan Mingyue panicked. Although he managed to calm Lan Hua down, the latter was still roaring in place.

Demon Lord Huang Feibao laughed, "Palace Master Wang, you should take good care of your disciples and grand-disciples. It looks like they won't last more than half an hour!"

Wang Hongyuan glared at the Demon Lord, then, in a moment of desperation, roared at Tan Mingyue:

"If you hadn't insisted on encouraging Lan Hua, how could he have turned out like this?"

"If he's gone, I, the Palace Master, will fight you to the death!"

After saying that, Deng Xian'er, Xie Wujiu, and Li Pengfei moved their feet slightly, as if they didn't want Tan Mingyue to leave.

Tan Mingyue looked coldly at Wang Hongyuan, "Don't worry, even if it costs me my life, I will save him. We'll die together if necessary!"

He slapped Lan Hua on the back, intending to forcefully transfer his Yuan energy to help Lan Hua suppress her karma.

However, once the Yuan energy entered her body, a force of resistance naturally formed within Lan Hua's body, almost shaking Tan Mingyue's palm away.

"Such powerful strength!" Tan Mingyue thought to himself.

Tan Mingyue's Yuan power surged, which allowed him to break through Lan Hua's defenses.

However, once the Yuan energy entered the meridians, it was immediately burned away by a raging flame.

"Hmm, no, this flame power isn't pure Crimson Lotus Flame!"

"Moreover, this power of fire seems to be able to..."

Tan Mingyue suddenly felt a sharp pain in his palm and quickly released Lan Hua. He then saw a red flame burning in his palm, and a black aura surrounding the red flame.

The flames were burning this black aura, which was his own karma.

Tan Mingyue exclaimed in surprise and quickly channeled his energy, unleashing a terrifying force that dispelled the power of the flames.

"Hmm? Lan Hua's Crimson Lotus Flame is already evolving, showing the rudiments of the Crimson Lotus Karmic Flame, but it has already gone out of control!"

"This is really difficult!"

Lan Hua roared, "You all must die!"

The burst of Yuan Power unexpectedly broke through the restrictions set up by Tan Mingyue.

Once the restriction was lifted, Lan Hua's Yuan Power erupted like a storm, enveloping a radius of dozens of feet around her in black energy.

Wang Hongyuan exclaimed in surprise, "This kind of power is already very close to the Xuan rank!"

"Quickly, we can't let him continue like this, or he'll exhaust his strength and die!"

Tan Mingyue and the people from the Pill God Palace attacked together. The power of the five Venerables was so great that they immediately suppressed Lan Hua.

No matter how much Lan Hua roared, she could not escape the restrictions imposed by the five Venerables.

Demon Lord Huang Feibao sneered, "Palace Master Wang, this boy is already crippled. I think it would be better to let him go; perhaps there is still a glimmer of hope for him!"

"If you want him to live, then you have no choice but to destroy his dantian and dantian fire now, and maybe that will save his life!"

"impossible!"

Tan Mingyue and Wang Hongyuan reprimanded him together.

"In that case, we'll just have to sit back and watch the show!"

After Huang Feibao finished speaking, he actually sat down on a large rock, crossed his legs, which made Tan Mingyue and the others grit their teeth in hatred.

Tan Mingyue suddenly said, "Palace Master Wang, there is a Yuan Dan in Lan Hua's lower dantian. If we can activate the power of this Yuan Dan, we might be able to save ourselves!"

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's activate it now!"

Tan Mingyue looked at Lan Hua, sighed, and had no choice but to strike again, this time with his palm, which landed on Lan Hua's lower abdomen.

He originally thought he could easily control this power, but found it to be as still as an old ox.

"How could this be? Why isn't it obeying my commands?" Tan Mingyue was dumbfounded.

Seeing Tan Mingyue stop and his expression turn grave, Wang Hongyuan quickly asked, "What's wrong? Is it not working?"

The latter shook his head helplessly.

Deng Xian'er sighed, "Is it really time to destroy his dantian and dan fire?"

He's so young, with such great talent, two large dantians, and two large primordial spirits!

Wang Hongyuan's eyes dimmed. What a promising successor! He hadn't even had a chance to properly nurture him before he was about to pass away.

Damn it, where am I supposed to find it again?

Tan Mingyue felt utterly hopeless, his eyes closed and his hands clenched into fists.

Huang Feibao was taken aback. He hadn't expected that such an unremarkable young man would have such extraordinary talent, and he couldn't help but be moved.

“Lord Wang, it has been too long. Even if we let him go, he will still die.”

If we still want to save his life, the only way is to destroy his dantian and dantian fire!

Wang Hongyuan nodded slightly, "Then let's get started!"

Tan Mingyue opened his eyes, seemingly making a decision, and gathered his Yuan energy in his right hand, which pulsed in his palm.

Just then, a great burst of Buddhist light suddenly shone in the sky, and golden lotuses bloomed all over the heavens.

A person descended from the sky, surrounded by golden Buddha images and Buddhist chants; it was the Buddha Emperor returning.

"Welcome back, Buddha!" ​​the monks said, pressing their palms together.

"Amitabha!"

"Karma, suppress it!"

The Buddha Emperor pressed down with his palm in mid-air, and the vast Buddhist power descended, directly suppressing the restless karma.

Immediately, a red Bodhi tree fell, completely sealing away the leaked karma.

However, with a casual move, he could suppress karma; this is the power of an emperor.

All the monks bowed deeply and respectfully said, "Thank you for your help, Buddha Emperor!"

"No need for formalities!"

As the Buddha Emperor was about to leave, he glanced at Lan Hua and let out a slight exclamation of surprise.

"There is still hope for this child!"
