As soon as the Nine-Turn Reversal Soul Pill entered his throat, it sank into Nalan Rongzhi's dantian. At first, only a warm feeling with endless vitality slowly spread out and permeated his limbs and bones, and his eight extraordinary meridians.

Lu Lingxi watched him nervously, her slender hands unconsciously gripping the quilt tightly, and she even breathed softly. She clearly sensed the long-standing, cold and domineering demonic poison in Nalan Rongzhi's body, and it suddenly became agitated the moment she felt this power!

Nalan Rongzhi's expression suddenly changed, his handsome face contorted with pain, veins bulging on his forehead, and cold sweat pouring down his face.

"Ugh—!"

Nalan Rongzhi couldn't suppress a painful groan. His body trembled violently, and his shirt burst open with a "bang" under the force, revealing his taut muscles and his face contorted with pain.

The black demonic runes that covered his upper body and had spread to within inches of his heart seemed to come alive. They deepened in color and writhed and expanded wildly, attempting to devour and assimilate that power.

"Rong Zhi!"

Lu Lingxi felt a pang of anxiety and almost couldn't help but lend a hand. However, she immediately realized that the Nine Revolutions Reversal Pill's medicinal power had to dissolve the demonic poison from the inside out. If there was any external interference, the pill's balance would be disrupted, and it might even trigger a more severe backlash.

Just as the black demonic runes were about to invade Nalan Rongzhi's heart, a seven-colored radiance suddenly burst forth from his body. The Nine-Turn Reverse Soul Pill, which had been dormant in his dantian, erupted with immense power, meeting the surging demonic poison head-on with the force of thunder.

Two extreme forces were tearing, colliding, and annihilating each other. Waves of excruciating pain came, almost overwhelming his mind, but he gritted his teeth and his eyes were full of indomitable will!

Lu Lingxi Yao clearly saw that the black demonic patterns, under the impact of the seven-colored pill power, were like encountering their nemesis. They twisted wildly, trying to resist, but the holy light purified them little by little.

The originally inky black magic patterns began to show signs of fading, the color gradually fading from deep black to grayish-black, and then from grayish-black to light gray.

This process was extremely painful and extremely long. Nalan Rongzhi's face kept changing between pale and flushed, and his breathing was rapid and heavy.

Lu Lingxi Yao's heart was constantly in her throat. All she could do was to constantly soothe him with her spiritual power, while carefully transferring the sliver of spiritual power she had just recovered into his body to help him stabilize his mind and maintain his consciousness.

After an unknown amount of time, when the last stubborn gray demonic runes completely dissipated under the cleansing power of the seven-colored pill, Nalan Rongzhi suddenly opened his eyes!

He clearly felt that the powerful internal energy had not disappeared, but had perfectly merged with his own demonic and spiritual energy. Instead of conflicting, they complemented each other, giving his cultivation a faint sign of a breakthrough. The demonic poison that had plagued him for many years was finally completely eradicated!

"puff--"

Nalan Rongzhi spat out a mouthful of black, foul-smelling blood, the last impurities of the demonic poison. After spitting out the blood, he felt refreshed and more comfortable than ever before.

"Yao Yao..."

He turned his head to look at Lu Lingxi, who had been staying by his side, his voice tinged with excitement and an indescribable hoarseness.

Looking at his smooth chest, where there was no trace of the magic markings, only healthy skin and smooth muscle lines, Lu Lingxi Yao finally relaxed completely, and tears of joy instantly blurred her vision.

"That's great... Rong Zhi, that's great!"

She threw herself into his arms, hugging him tightly, feeling his strong heartbeat, tears streaming down her face as they fell onto his chest.

Nalan Rongzhi hugged her back tightly, burying his head in her neck and shoulders, deeply inhaling the fragrance of her hair. A thousand words were condensed into this silent embrace.

"Yaoyao, thank you..."

After a long while, he finally raised his head, cupped her face, and gently kissed away the tears on her cheeks, his eyes filled with endless love and gratitude. "With you in my life, what more could I ask for!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxi Yao burst into laughter through her tears, gently but playfully punching him, "Between us, there's no need for thanks!"
