In front of someone as self-disciplined as Xu Ran, any problem that can be solved by sheer hard work is but a minor inconvenience.

In the presence of the Lord of Grind, no obstacle remains!

"Mere slaughter... is just some minor toil and turmoil after all."

He sighed inwardly.

Xu Ran let out a hearty laugh.

Ye Ping raised an eyebrow, "You look so happy, seems like your training is complete? Do you feel a significant improvement? How big is it?"

Xu Ran's face was full of joy, "How big? It's hard to describe, but it's certainly huge."

This is a Golden Achievement!

Triggered alongside the [Young Venerable] Golden Achievement, it opens a potential path of cultivation—on Blue Star, there is no body cultivation, everyone is a mage.

So the magnitude of improvement, Xu Ran couldn't estimate!!

In any case, when the sound of the Golden Achievement completion notification rang in my mind, it felt like I experienced the four great joys of life all over again.

Xu Ran let out another hearty laugh.

Everyone was astonished.

Liu Yan scanned all teammates, his expression strange, "To make such a steady child laugh uncontrollably twice... The improvement must be quite outrageous."

Lin Feng: "Yesterday, when he smashed the mysterious eye, he laughed heartily once too."

Xiao Xue: "No way? Today's improvement can rival the annihilation of a deity?"

Cai Miao: "It's hard to say, what kind of eight-year-old kid crazily slaughters ghost creatures with a Qi Blood Value over 100,000, and kills 10,000 of them..."

Li Wei suddenly had a brainwave, "I've heard that some Resentful Beasts, Crystal Beasts, ghost creatures, would hold a Godhood Ceremony for themselves, complete the ceremony, and only then can they undergo Divinity Transformation, my little nephew, do you also have your own ascension ceremony?"

Xu Ran: "Uh..."

"I can't call it an ascension ceremony, nor can I explain it to you. Anyway, the gains are plenty."

As he spoke, Xu Ran, still in Invisibility, took out the [Slaughter Heart].

[Successfully received!]

As the notification sound fell, a golden heart appeared out of nowhere before Xu Ran, vivid and splendid. Though it seemed to be forged from gold, it was full of muscularity and power, as if it would beat forever, even when time's river stops flowing, it would still pulse, until the end of time.

It was unbelievably beautiful, combining artistic, realistic, and dreamy sentiments. It was as if it were metal, and also as if golden flames were burning fiercely. Though only the size of a fist, it was majestic, grand, and could compete with the blazing sun.

Unfortunately...

The people present couldn't see it at all, nor could they feel its existence. It seemed like a higher-dimensional entity, invisible, imperceptible, and unimaginable to those of lower dimensions!

Xu Ran was full of awe, admiring this worldly treasure.

Just a glance at it made his mind calm and his thoughts cool down.

"Does it purify, soothe the mind? It's somewhat like a Purified Spirit Body?"

"No, it's a completely different feeling... The Purified Spirit Body is purer, born merely to expel inner pollution."

"The Slaughter Heart is different, it's a bit complex. It's not just purification, but also slaughter, as if after slaughtering billions, you enter a Wise Mode."

"And that's not quite right either. More accurately, it's like a void of hell, purification through calamities, becoming saintly with clarity and mercy."

Murmuring to himself, Xu Ran's features gradually brightened.

He reached out and grasped the Slaughter Heart.

"Merge with my true self."

Feeling the temperature of Xu Ran's palm, the Slaughter Heart rapidly melted, turned into a golden liquid, and enveloped Xu Ran's hand.

In the blink of an eye, golden light spread across Xu Ran's body—he turned into a small gold statue.

The radiant golden light flowed across his body, the mysterious high-dimensional power seeped in through his skin...

Rushing, surging, it surged to his heart, forming a distinct virtual image, as if it were the soul of his true self.

When the virtual self successfully coalesced.

Xu Ran's heart thudded as if drums were beating!

Everyone was astonished.

They all looked towards Xu Ran's invisible spot.

"This is..."

Xiao Xue: "The heart's pacing speed increased, it seems the Life Limit has ascended."

Liu Yan: "So there really are people who raise their Life Limit through slaughter?"

Lin Feng frowned deeply: "Comprehension Root Bone, Substitute Paperman, Invisibility Skill, Slaughter... Even though I think my reasoning skills are strong, I can't understand the matters regarding him. This boy hides too many things."

Ye Ping smiled faintly.

"How about it? Little Ran, can you hold on? There won't be any mishaps, right?"

Xu Ran: "No worries, feeling very comfortable!"

At this moment.

His body was burning hot, threads of lurking evil qi, negative emotions... were forcibly extracted, converging into his heart, devoured and squeezed by the virtual self!

Ten drops of the Tribulation Flame, successfully refined!

Indeed!

Ten drops of black flames containing pure energy quietly floated inside the Slaughter Heart.

They sometimes separated, transforming into ten points of black flames, sometimes collided, transforming into a damaged black lotus.

Xu Ran examined with intent: "Is this the Tribulation Flame? A treasure that can allow the flesh to undergo Nirvana, and I suddenly got ten drops..."

"Should I experience its effects on the spot? Anyway, there are two Godslaying Squads protecting me, absolutely safe."

He silently whispered to himself.

Unable to resist temptation, Xu Ran immediately used his intent to pluck a petal of the black lotus, and pulled it out from the Slaughter Heart.

When the black lotus petal merged into Xu Ran's true self.

Xu Ran's heartbeat abruptly halted.
