Suddenly, the temperature of the Heaven and Earth Furnace soared by several degrees!

The terrifying heat even caused the surrounding grass, trees, and some wooden structures to catch fire.

Some martial artists standing too close found their clothes ignited by the horrifying heat in the air.

"Retreat!"

For a moment, many were panic-stricken and retreated en masse.

As they continued to retreat, Zhang Xiaoshan inside the Heaven and Earth Furnace seemed to be completely enveloped by a cocoon of azure light.

Within this azure cocoon, his appearance underwent a transformation.

Originally, Zhang Xiaoshan was a handsome young man.

But at this moment, his appearance changed dramatically!

His figure became exceptionally slender.

His once moderately long hair now flowed like a waterfall.

His face resembled white jade, his lips like a drop of crimson blood, and between his brows appeared a faint golden Mysterious Seal.

His entire body exuded a unique aura reminiscent of nature's revival and the renewal of all things.

Under the refinement of the Heaven and Earth Furnace and the Azure Sea Blue Sky Strange Fire, his Green Emperor Creation Body was fully forged!

However, Zhang Xiaoshan did not break out of the cocoon; instead, he continued to refine himself using the Heaven and Earth Furnace and Azure Sea Blue Sky Strange Fire.

"Crackle hiss!"

The Divine Thunder Sky Pearl, surrounded by lightning, was being refined into his eyes using a secret technique.

The Purple Cloud Divine Thunder Skill recorded a rare secret technique.

This technique could completely integrate the Divine Thunder Sky Pearl into oneself, transforming it into the Purple Cloud Divine Pupil, enabling control over thunder.

Previously, the conditions for refinement were not suitable, and his physical body could not meet the requirements.

This time, everything was ready, only the east wind was needed.

The Heaven and Earth Furnace and Azure Sea Blue Sky Strange Fire were entirely suitable for the refinement environment.

His Green Emperor Creation Body could fully bear the burden of the Purple Cloud Divine Pupil.

Given this, was there any reason not to refine it?

Outside the Heaven and Earth Furnace, Li Chengfeng and the Xuanqi Sect members initially worried about any unexpected changes.

Now, Li Chengfeng and the group of Great Elders gradually felt at ease.

"Humph!"

"Everything is fine now!"

Li Chengfeng snorted coldly and continued to control the Azure Sea Blue Sky to refine Zhang Xiaoshan.

Although he didn't know what was happening with Zhang Xiaoshan now,

He had been trapped in the Heaven and Earth Furnace for so long, even a Heavenly-level Magical Artifact would have turned to ashes, let alone a mere mortal flesh.

"Congratulations, Sect Leader, for eliminating a great enemy for the Xuanqi Sect!"

The Xuanqi Sect's Great Elder and several other elders expressed their stance at this moment.

Everyone felt delighted.

Previously, Zhang Xiaoshan had been too formidable, making the Great Elder and others feel that this time, the Xuanqi Sect might face a cataclysm.

Fortunately, once Sect Leader Li Chengfeng emerged, the situation was brought under his control.

Among the onlookers, many felt regret upon hearing the words of the Xuanqi Sect members.

"What a pity for Master Zhang!"

"At such a young age, he had already achieved the status of a Huaxia Divine Realm Grandmaster."

"His future achievements would surely surpass Huaxia Grandmaster Ye Beixiong, and Sect Leader Li Chengfeng, even Human Immortal Xiang Nantian from overseas Hongmen."

"What a pity..."

"Today, he meets his end here."

Not just one treasure seeker felt regret; most treasure seekers shared this sentiment.

As time passed, everyone felt there was no longer any chance.

With so much time gone by, there seemed no possible way for Zhang Xiaoshan to have survived.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a change occurred in the arena.

"Eh?"

Many people's expressions turned peculiar.

Because in the Heaven and Earth Furnace, strands of azure light began to emanate from the azure cocoon.

In the next instant, the azure cocoon suddenly burst apart.

Zhang Xiaoshan's figure emerged abruptly within the Heaven and Earth Furnace.

With a single step forward, a mysterious spirit charm spread outward from him, sweeping across all directions!

Suddenly, within the Xuanqi Sect, a miraculous scene appeared!

The vegetation throughout the Xuanqi Sect showed signs of nature revival, a renewal of all things.

Not only that, but even some dead trees and rotten wood seemed to come back to life!

Behind Zhang Xiaoshan stood a massive Dharma Body, adorned with an Emperor's Crown, clad in azure feathers, towering towards the heavens, looking down upon all living beings.

The incredible overwhelming power instantly pressed nearly everyone in the arena to kneel on the ground!

"What is... this?"

In the Xuanqi Sect, everyone was utterly dumbfounded.

None of them had anticipated such a twist.

"My heavens!"

"Could Master Zhang truly be the Heavenly Person descending as the legends say?"

"With a thought, revive nature, bring dead wood to life!"

"What else could this be but a Heavenly Person's or Immortal's technique?"

Many present recalled Zhang Xiaoshan's various past legends.

Given the current scene, Zhang Xiaoshan was undoubtedly the Heavenly Person descending, an Immortal among mortals!

"We pay homage to Heavenly Person Zhang!"

An elderly cultivator excitedly knelt to the ground.

The existence of Zhang Xiaoshan made them understand what it meant to experience the heights of cultivation, made them believe in the existence of Heavenly Persons in the world.

Even though the hope was slim, among them, or perhaps among all cultivators, some still hoped to reach such heights.
