Chapter 89 Absorbing the Flame Soul Magic Pill (Please Subscribe to the First Six Updates)
It was already late at night when he returned to Qianyang Palace. Zhou An pushed the door open and the palace maid immediately prepared toiletries. Shangguan Rong was sitting in the hall reading a book, still waiting for him to come back.
"Your Majesty, I have prepared a hundred-herb soup for you. I got it from the Baihua Palace. It is very nourishing and is also effective for monks." Shangguan Rong opened the porcelain jar and served him the soup.
Zhou An sat down, took a sip, put the spoon down, hugged Shangguan Rong who was sitting on his lap and smiled, "Thank you, Queen."
"Look at what you said. It is my blessing to serve the emperor. There is no need for the emperor to say thank you." Shangguan Rong smiled. Although she said this, she was still happy in her heart.
Zhou An's usual habits were different from those of everyone she had met before. As an emperor, and even an emperor who controlled the power of cultivators, he actually had some respect for women. No one could have imagined that.
Not to mention the emperor, in the eyes of the lowest-ranking local tycoons, women are nothing more than playthings. This is one of the important reasons why Shangguan Rong truly loves Zhou An.
She was a strong woman by nature. The fundamental reason why she envied the Queen Mother was that she hoped to be respected by everyone like men, rather than being a tool.
Zhou An gave her what she wanted most, and with his status and strength, even Shangguan Rong was impressed by him.
"How's your training going?" Zhou An still liked to hug her and feel her fragrance and her body as soft as water as before.
"With Shuyao's guidance, and the Fire Separation Sutra being very suitable for me, I made rapid progress. Shuyao also told me to suppress my realm as much as possible. The later I reach the peak of the third level of innateness, the better it will be for me.
The Phoenix Twin Swords are already usable, and should be able to be retracted into the body within half a year, by then the power of the pair of swords can be fully exerted. Shuyao said that it would take many years to achieve the unity of body and sword. "Shangguan Rong leaned against Zhou An, enjoying his caress.
"Well, don't worry. You will have no shortage of elixirs, techniques, and magic weapons you need for cultivation in the future. The most important thing is your understanding of the techniques. The most important thing in practicing Taoism is to cultivate your mind. You should treat the management of government affairs as a path to cultivate your mind." Zhou An said.
"Yeah." Shangguan Rong nodded.
"This time I got the Flame Soul Magic Pill, and you happen to be of the fire element. Use the Yin-Yang bedroom technique to help me refine the magic pill." Zhou An said.
"Okay." Shangguan Rong looked happy. Even Hua Wu Yue liked this way of practice, let alone Shangguan Rong.
Zhou An carried her to the bedroom, and the palace maids then tidied the hall, closed the doors and windows, and lowered the curtains. After the two entered the bedroom, the palace maids closed the door and left, leaving only two to keep watch.
Because the Flame Soul Demon Pill was an extremely hot substance, Zhou An sat directly on the stone slab, swallowed the pill, and absorbed the power of the magic pill.
As soon as Zhou An swallowed it, a red energy light appeared in his abdomen, and then red light appeared in the meridians under his skin, which spread throughout his body. All the meridians in his body were bright, which looked extremely strange.
Moreover, the air coming out of his body became hot, and Shangguan Rong, who was standing three meters away, could feel the heat wave flowing around Zhou An.
Soon black and red flames burst out of Zhou An's body, and the clothes on his body instantly turned into ashes and fell around him. Shangguan Rong immediately used the Fire Sutra to control the heat wave and disperse it, thus avoiding burning the wooden furniture around the bedroom.
In the black and red flames, Zhou An's body was like red-hot iron, being tempered.
It lasted for about half an hour, and the black and red flames turned into streams of light and were absorbed into the body, and the red body slowly disappeared.
When Zhou An finished his practice and opened his eyes, they were red and a strong demonic aura appeared on his body.
Shangguan Rong looked surprised. It was the first time she saw Zhou An like this, and she was still a little scared.
"This Flame Soul Demon Pill was refined by ten thousand great demons. It has extremely heavy demonic energy. Now I need the Yin-Yang method to help me refine the demonic energy. You can also absorb this demonic energy to improve your cultivation." Zhou An restrained his surging emotions.
Demonic energy will stimulate people's seven emotions and six desires. The heavier the demonic energy, the stronger the stimulation, and it may even make people completely lose their rationality in the end.
Zhou Anhao was practicing the Heavenly Demon Book and already knew how to control the demonic energy. However, the demonic energy in the Flame Soul Demon Pill was too heavy. With his current understanding of the Heavenly Demon Book, he was not able to control it, so he could only use the Yin-Yang technique to refine it.
Shangguan Rong was still a little nervous when she saw Zhou An's beast-like aura, but she took off her clothes without any hesitation.
Zhou An could no longer restrain himself and pounced on him like a wild beast.
The next morning, Zhou An woke up and found himself lying naked on the floor, with Shangguan Rong still sleeping beside him.
Thinking of the madness of last night, she had an expression of wanting more. Fortunately, Shangguan Rong had a congenital physique, otherwise she really could not withstand such amazing demonic energy.
He told her to suppress her realm last night. After absorbing so much refined demonic energy, her cultivation had already reached the peak of the third level of the innate realm. He didn't know when the heavenly tribulation would come. For a while, he had to stay by her side and do his best to help Shangguan Rong improve her skills and magic weapons to deal with the heavenly tribulation.
As for the inner demon, no one can help with that, but he is not worried about this problem. He is not as afraid of demons as other cultivators. Even if Shangguan Rong is possessed by a demon, he can use the Yin-Yang bedroom technique to help him refine the demonic energy.
As long as she doesn't have any major demons in her heart, she won't lose her mind.
After making sure Shangguan Rong was fine, he picked her up and put her on the bed, then he took out her clothes and put them on. At the same time, he checked the status of his own attributes. His true essence cultivation had reached 2300 years, and his realm was still the fifth level of the acquired realm, with no change at all.
The bloodline of the Ice and Snow Demon King has transformed into the Ice and Flame Demon Emperor. I feel that this physical body has been improved again. I wonder how much cultivation it can withstand now.
When the Demon Book reaches the second level, more demonic energy can be controlled. In modern terms, as long as your state of mind is not broken, you will be fine even if you inhale demonic energy, and you can even use the demonic energy to increase your strength.
However, in order to condense the Heavenly Demon Sword, one needs to practice to the third level. It is recorded in the book that the Heavenly Demon Sword is sinister and powerful, and ordinary people will be corroded by the demonic energy if they touch it.
The Imperial Heavenly Book and the Haotian Sutra are both at the first level. It is just right for me to stay in the palace during this period of time to comprehend these skills and temporarily stop going out to sign in.
The queen woke up around nine in the morning. Thinking of the madness and joy of last night made her feel very shy. It was really contrary to her previous family education, but it was really fun.
The thought of this inevitably made her feel shy. When she looked up and saw Zhou An sitting next to her looking at her, she immediately blushed.
Zhou An laughed and said, "Good morning, Queen. Can I help you get dressed?"
"Get out!" Shangguan Rong was so embarrassed that she couldn't help but scream out loud, but as soon as she said this, she became nervous. Asking the emperor to go out was extremely disrespectful.
But Zhou An actually smiled and stood up and really went out. Shangguan Rong hurriedly said: "Your Majesty..."
"Got it. I'll wait for you outside. Let's go to court together today." Zhou An smiled and gave him a look, making Shangguan Rong blush again.
After a long time, Shangguan Rong tidied herself up and came out dressed neatly. She could have asked the palace maid to go in and do it, but this time she felt it was too embarrassing, so she did not allow the palace maid to come in and tidied herself inside. When she came out, she was a dignified and majestic queen.
After they finished their breakfast, they came to the court. The officials who had been waiting in the side hall came in. Also coming came the Ten Thousand Demon King and nine other demon saints, and Old Bai.
Seeing that the officials were all standing in their original positions, the King of Ten Thousand Demons and others, who were attending court for the first time, didn't know where they should stand. The female officials in charge of etiquette here were also dumbfounded. They had never encountered such a thing and didn't know how to arrange it.
After all the officials paid their respects, they all discussed in a low voice, but no one dared to say anything. Although they did not know the other monsters, they all knew the King of All Monsters, so who would dare to be presumptuous in front of him?
Zhou An said: "The demon tribe members should stand on the military commander's position."
The King of Ten Thousand Demons and others took the order and walked to where the generals were standing, and they were at the front. The original generals all took a few steps back.
