However, his physical body was already destroyed, and there was simply no way to circulate the True Qi; besides, amidst the rolling magma, where could the Wood Attribute True Qi that he had collected possibly reside?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yifei suddenly had an idea. He recalled the theoretical knowledge about Qi that Zhang Po had taught him: the Five Elements Qi is the most fundamental Qi within every Cultivator's attribute, also the source of all attributes of Qi. The Five Elements Qi intergenerate and counter each other, and there is no such thing as pure Qi in this world, as that would severely disrupt the balance among the Five Elements.

Thus, it is known that regardless of the attribute of the Qi, as long as it belongs to the Five Elements, it must carry Qi from other elements besides its own. In other words, even though the magma before him was mainly of Fire Qi, there would definitely be Wood Attribute Qi present as well, just like in the magma within the Holy Mountain.

It must be so! Xiao Yifei was overjoyed, and he decisively began attempting to search for the presence of Wood Attribute within the magma. As expected, in the extreme Fire Attribute, Xiao Yifei sensed a familiar trace.

It is the Wood Attribute! Xiao Yifei rejoiced, immediately maneuvering the outer wall of his Dantian to absorb the Wood Attribute Qi that he could perceive within the Magma Pool.

Above the Dantian of a Cultivator, there are many acupoints connected to the meridians, which gather the Spiritual Energy exhaled and stored within the Dantian, ready to be used when the Cultivator battles.

When he first entered the Magma Pool, Xiao Yifei intentionally searched for Qi that aligned with his attribute within the pool, which was the last bet he placed there. If he won, he would be reforged; if he lost, it would be a total defeat, even costing him his life.

However, reality did not disappoint him. Within the Magma Pool, there indeed existed weak yet absorbable Wood Attribute Qi.

When Xiao Yifei was in the Magma Pool, though his physical body was entirely destroyed, he deliberately preserved his Dantian, meaning the function of gathering was still present. Thus, he used the acupoints on his Dantian to gather the Wood Attribute True Qi within the Magma Pool.

At first, perhaps due to the dominance of Fire Attribute for thousands of years within the Magma Pool, the Wood Attribute Qi sparsely present was lazily drawn in by Xiao Yifei.

Seeing that the Qi remaining in his Dantian was about to be exhausted, and the Qi in the pool had yet to be absorbed as a supplement, it merely wriggled like a herd of sheep being driven along.

"What! How come there's no active atmosphere when seeing its master? Have they been oppressed by these fire brats for too long?" Xiao Yifei murmured, then slightly perceived the concentration of these Wood Attribute Qi. As he sensed, undoubtedly, the concentration of Wood Attribute in this Magma Pool was pathetically low, possibly due to being suppressed by the Fire Attribute Qi.

"Ah, such a terrible servitude!" Xiao Yifei sighed internally, then suddenly shouted, "Then come back to me all of you!"

Within the sea of consciousness in his Dantian, Xiao Yifei's eyes suddenly opened, turning the absorption force of his Dantian to the maximum. Instantly, centering on the Dantian, the entire Magma Pool spun into a vortex. The once lazy Wood Attribute Qi rushed towards Xiao Yifei's Dantian like rivers pouring into the sea.

"This is the feeling!" Xiao Yifei was overjoyed, sensing the Wood Attribute Qi surrounding him as if they had found their belonging, and surged towards him. His heart was filled with indescribable delight, while continuously wrapping the newly absorbed Qi around the outer wall of his Dantian to fend off the heat of the magma.

Through Xiao Yifei's effort, the protective shield of the Dantian balanced out the destructive power of the magma. Although occasionally the magma's concentrated heat melted the outer wall, it quickly regenerated with Xiao Yifei's astonishing repair power.

"This can't continue!" After noticing this equilibrium, Xiao Yifei shook his head. Merely maintaining his Dantian in the Magma Pool without being destroyed wasn't enough; to reconstruct a new physical body, he must overcome the dominance of Fire Attribute in the magma.

With this thought, Xiao Yifei channeled all the Qi within his Dantian to coat the outer wall, completely emptying his Dantian. Then he took a deep breath, cranked the absorption force to the highest, causing all the Wood Attribute Qi in the Magma Pool to swiftly flow towards him.

"This time, I must surpass you!" Xiao Yifei gritted his teeth, continuing to increase the absorption force until it reached the point where even his Dantian could hardly withstand. At this level, the once-empty Dantian was rapidly filled with Wood Attribute Qi from the Magma Pool.

Adding the Qi that was originally enveloping the Dantian hadn't been completely depleted, the Qi within the Dantian began using its unique healing power to rebuild Xiao Yifei's melted body.

"Yes, like this! Come on!" Sensing an itchy feeling outside the Dantian, Xiao Yifei joyfully shouted. The protective shield outside the Dantian was capable of holding on for a while, providing just enough time to reconstruct his physical body.

Even Xiao Yifei couldn't help but admire his recovery power. In the blink of an eye, a skeletal frame formed outside the Dantian, acting as the foundation for forging the physical body—having a strong skeleton was essential.

Examining the newly born skeleton meticulously, Xiao Yifei marvelously discovered that his skeleton had a dark golden hue, flashing faint phosphorescence even in the crimson Magma Pool, seemingly fearless of magma erosion, gleaming brightly in the red sea.

"What a wonder! Bones that even the magma from the Holy Mountain cannot harm; I like it!" Xiao Yifei beamed, yet just as he was about to use his Qi for further reconstruction, he found the previously filled Qi was entirely depleted.

Bear in mind, Xiao Yifei's realm had reached the late stage Golden Elixir level, with an extraordinary reservoir of Qi. During the 'Martial Arts Tournament', healing all the injured did not consume as much Qi. However, now just reforming a skeleton drained him.

"Terrifying!" Xiao Yifei exclaimed inwardly in surprise. Helplessly, he paused the restoration of his body and resumed absorbing Qi from the Magma Pool for replenishment, otherwise, if his Dantian was destroyed, his contained consciousness would perish as well, rendering a newly reconstructed body nothing more than a vegetative state.

Xiao Yifei closed his eyes, following the previous sensation, and again turned the absorption power of his Dantian to maximum. Yet, due to the previous efforts, the already scarce Wood Attribute Qi in the Magma Pool was drained dry, nearly attracting Fire Attribute Qi instead.

Feeling the overwhelming power of the incoming Fire Attribute Qi, Xiao Yifei hastily ceased the absorption force, leaving the skeleton there, while he controlled his Dantian to sink deeper into the Magma Pool.

Down there, the concentration of Qi was more refined, and the reserves were more abundant. Correspondingly, the destructiveness brought by the magma was also stronger. Xiao Yifei had long anticipated this, but to reconstruct his body, he was left with no choice but to continue diving down.
