Chapter 1392 Supremely Negative And Supremely Positive
With great effort, Jonathan managed to place the Heartfire Pill in the bound hands of Joshua.
The moment the medicinal pill entered Joshua’s mouth, his body began to struggle violently.
However, under the constraints of numerous formations, all his struggles seemed powerless.
According to Cypress’s memory, the Heartfire Pill was extracted from the body of a demon beast that lived within magma.
This substance couldn’t be concocted by humans at all. It was the product of demon beasts condensing all the Earthfire Venom within their bodies for self-protection.
Up until then, that thing had been a rare and unattainable treasure. Yet, it was being directly fed to Joshua by Jonathan.
The Soulbinding Herb was a supremely negative component, and it was combined with the supremely positive earthly treasure.
If taken separately, both were hard-to-find major medicines. But then, those two completely opposite treasures had all entered one person’s stomach, and they were shoved in so crudely, without any refinement or blending.
Within the coffin, Joshua was now slowly floating in mid-air.
Upon him, the faint hues of purple and orange continually alternated.
Soon, those two auras shattered Joshua’s physical body.
The aura of the purple Soulbinding Herb swept over, instantly turning Joshua’s skin as hard as ice. However, when the energy of the Heartfire Pill alternated, the frozen flesh immediately turned into sludge and fell off.
Even under Joshua, chunks of flesh were quickly piling up on the ground, the unbearable stench of blood constantly assaulting the senses of everyone present.
Logically speaking, given such a degree of physical breakdown, Joshua should have died long ago.
Yet, in that alternating cycle of extreme cold and extreme heat, a remarkably robust life force had been born anew.
The life force was only a faint thread, akin to comparing the vast ocean to a dewdrop, as meager as the thread Seboxia gave to Jonathan.
Yet, it was that trace of aura that could rapidly replenish Joshua’s fragmented body in a short period of time.
Jonathan stared wide-eyed at Joshua in the distance, his gaze filled with utter astonishment. Under the fusion of the supremely negative and supremely positive, what kind of power is born that can far surpass the function of the life force? The life force is a derivative of the Pryncyp of Life, and it is already the strongest force under this Pryncyp. But compared to the power before my eyes, it’s simply not worth mentioning. Could this be a power on a par with Pryncyp’s?
No one knew what exactly emerged from the collision of those two forces.
Even with Cypress’ memories in his mind, Jonathan couldn’t find a single answer.
After all, those two things were both great medicines of heaven and earth. Even if someone had taken them before, they were used in conjunction with many other medicines to neutralize their medicinal properties in order to achieve the purpose of nurturing and healing.
At that moment, however, those two elements within Joshua’s body were autonomously combating each other.
It was as if a bowl of clear water had been poured into a pot of boiling oil. The situation within Joshua’s body had completely spiraled out of control.
Graeme turned to Jonathan and shouted, “Jonathan! Let go of me! I need to check on him. Joshua must not die.”
At that moment, Jonathan was leaning against the inner wall of the coffin, struggling to stay upright.
Prior to that, he forcibly used the divine space, which was beyond his cultivation level. It was indeed too much to handle.
At that moment, Jonathan felt dizzy, and his head was throbbing. If it weren’t for the fear of Joshua going berserk and killing him, Jonathan would have insisted on lying down and getting a good night’s sleep.
“He won’t die…” Jonathan gave a faint shake of his head, speaking in a weak tone, “I can feel it. Within Joshua’s body, there’s a surge of energy constantly stimulating his rebirth. As long as the effects of the Soulbinding Herb and the Heartfire Pill are similar, this kid can complete the transformation and won’t die…”
Within the coffin was Jonathan’s force field. With the aid of the formations within, Jonathan could sense even the slightest energy fluctuation.
On the other hand, there was Joshua, who carried a death energy. At that moment, Joshua was living on the brink of death, harboring a vitality within him that even Jonathan found terrifying.
Upon hearing that, Graeme didn’t say much. Everyone began to quietly focus on the changes in Joshua.
For a good half hour or more, the orange and purple glow on Joshua never once faded.
Amidst the alternating radiance, Joshua’s body finally completed the ninth replacement.
Finally, when the flesh and blood in his chest were healed once again, Joshua finally opened his eyes.
Buzz!
With a soft chant, all the restraining barriers around Joshua shattered.
Gently landing on the ground, Joshua was completely bare. Not to mention his clothes, which had long been shattered after the two powerful medicines, but even the hair on his body was completely gone.
Graeme looked at Joshua and exclaimed in surprise, “Unblemished body!”
Only when Joshua heard the shouting did he finally notice the unusual surroundings.
“Jonathan?” Joshua swiftly moved to Jonathan’s side.
Even he himself hadn’t noticed that he had effortlessly passed through the restraining barrier set up by Jonathan for his own protection, using nothing but his physical body.
“What did you do?” Joshua asked somewhat heavily, then turned to look in the direction of Graeme. “Did you guys do this?”
Sirius was slightly taken aback as he watched the drastic change in Joshua’s aura. Even though I may not have been a match for Joshua before, the gap between us certainly wasn’t this big. But now, there is clearly not a hint of spiritual energy fluctuation from Joshua. Just that one glance from earlier gave me the illusion of being choked. This is impossible. It’s just two pills. There’s no way they could have such a significant effect!
With a surge of spiritual energy, Jonathan managed to grab Joshua’s arm, saying with effort, “It wasn’t them. It was you who did it. Joshua, even if you’re impressive, there’s no need to flaunt it for everyone to see, right? Put on some clothes!”
Jonathan tossed a set of sportswear to Joshua.
It was that seemingly ordinary action, akin to breathing, that caused Jonathan’s consciousness field to throb with pain.
“Jonathan!” Joshua wanted to summon his spiritual energy to catch the collapsing Jonathan but found that his body was completely empty, devoid of any trace of spiritual energy.
Moreover, there wasn’t even a shred of mental energy left.
If it weren’t for his ability to use his inner vision freely, Joshua would have thought he had fallen to the level of a mortal.
“My cultivation level!” Joshua was taken aback, yet a flood of memories surged forth like a tidal wave.
Everything that happened after he passed out, the voices he heard, and the scenes after taking the medicine began to clear up as if the fog had finally lifted.
“You saved me!” Before, Joshua was merely lost in chaos, but his ears were still functioning well.
All those conversations, voices, and the scene he saw upon awakening after taking the Soulbinding Herb were all emerging scene by scene in Joshua’s mind.
“You finally remembered!” Jonathan said with a bitter smile. “Joshua, I’ve put all my hopes on you!”
