The metallic property of the Chrysanthemum of Marvelous Treasure is very pure, but it is still slightly inferior compared to Quan Yi's ultimate fire.

Moreover, this energy is evaporating at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After a quarter of an hour of burning with intense fire, the metallic energy pouring into the gauntlet has shrunk by about half.
As for the remaining energy, it is constantly shrinking and converging, instead bursting out with an even more dazzling golden light.
Gold cannot become a useful tool without being tempered.
In the Five Elements, "Metal follows change"; "Follow" means to obey; "Change" means transformation.
Following change means that metal is produced through transformation.
The already pure energy, under the refinement of the ultimate fire, is advancing towards a higher level.
As time passed, Quan Yi divided his attention, focusing on the flow of Qi and blood within his body while guiding the filtered metallic energy into his martial soul.
After an hour.
Quan Yi's limbs, under the continuous infusion of Qi and blood, swelled more than twice their size. The dense dragon scales covering his arms were also stretched open, revealing the original skin.
At the same time, his body crackled, as if all the bones in his body were shattering and reassembling.
If someone could see through him, they would see that the Qi and blood within Quan Yi's body had accumulated to a critical point.
Even Quan Yi, with his strong body, felt a little worried when he saw his Qi and blood expand to this point.
However, when the accumulated Qi and blood crossed a certain critical point, Quan Yi suddenly heard a shattering sound in his ears.
In that instant, the majestic Qi and blood poured into Quan Yi's limbs and bones, and his swollen body rapidly contracted at this moment.
Quan Yi, who had been focusing on his body the whole time, noticed the changes in his body immediately.
Also at this moment, Quan Yi noticed that the stored Qi and blood, like a flood being released, was diverted by several unknown channels.
Quan Yi was no stranger to these channels.
Hidden meridians.
This was another meridian breakthrough after the Ren and Du meridians.
However, unlike the previous two times, he opened up a full six hidden meridians at once.
This was undoubtedly a surprise for Quan Yi.
Each stream of flowing Qi and blood broke through the acupoint barriers with unstoppable momentum.
Before absorbing the Chrysanthemum of Marvelous Treasure, Quan Yi and Dugu Bo knew that the medicinal power of this object was neutral, vast and profound, and fierce and domineering, but they could not know that this object had the effect of opening up meridians.
Therefore, this could be said to be a real unexpected joy for Quan Yi.
Quan Yi seemed to understand why it was crowned with the name 'Reaching Heaven'.
The crimson dragon horns on his head began to dim in color due to the terrifying suction force erupting from his body.
This represented that the energy reserve of the crimson dragon horns was rapidly decreasing, and the speed was still accelerating.
The crimson dragon horns in the automatic energy absorption state could no longer keep up with Quan Yi's digestion speed.
In order not to allow the Qi and blood that was being opened to stagnate due to energy shortage, Quan Yi consumed a certain amount of mental power and activated the active energy absorption.
Moreover, Quan Yi, considering Huo Wu, summoned his martial soul, got up and walked towards the spring, and jumped directly into the Yang Spring.
Immersed in the Yang Spring, Quan Yi burst out with a terrifying suction force, and majestic energy poured into Quan Yi's body from the crimson dragon horns.
Also at this moment, the energy contained in the spring water was transported to all parts of the body along with the surging Qi and blood.
The vermilion dragon scales covering the upper body spread to the lower body at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The full coverage of the external soul bone, which would have taken about a year to complete, was greatly accelerated under the medicinal power of the Chrysanthemum of Marvelous Treasure.
Compared to the successive surprises and progress at the physical level, the process of replenishing metallic energy that Quan Yi initially expected seemed difficult.
Two hours passed, and the metallic energy contained within the Chrysanthemum of Marvelous Treasure was on the verge of exhaustion.
However, the golden light in the flames had not yet completed its essential transformation.
All the metallic energy had been condensed into an extremely small golden sphere.
Quan Yi could feel a wisp of sharp aura emanating from his body, which represented that it had reached the critical moment of transformation.
However, it was this last step that was the most tormenting. Watching the increasingly depleted metallic energy, Quan Yi's heart also became a little tormented.
Finally, after three hours of extraction, Quan Yi could no longer extract a trace of metallic energy from the Chrysanthemum of Marvelous Treasure.
The golden sphere in the process of transformation stopped its evolution due to the lack of energy replenishment. What was worse was that under the continuous burning of the intense fire, the metallic element was gradually disappearing.
In fact, Quan Yi could now integrate this energy into his martial soul.
Even so, Quan Yi's martial soul could be transformed into a top-grade metallic martial soul. However, having reached this point, he would certainly not give up.
However, objectively speaking, Quan Yi had no additional metallic energy to replenish.
It was at this moment that a flash of inspiration flashed in Quan Yi's mind.
Quan Yi suddenly opened his dragon eyes, clenched his dragon teeth, and swam quickly towards the depths of the spring.
Dugu Bo, who was standing around the spring and paying attention to the two of them, felt deep worry in his heart when he saw Quan Yi's sudden actions.
"What is this kid doing? Is it necessary to make such a big fuss for a mere Chrysanthemum of Marvelous Treasure?"
For safety reasons, Dugu Bo quietly operated his soul power and stood between Huo Wu and the spring.
At the bottom of the spring, Quan Yi used the enhancement brought by dragon transformation to quickly dive to the bottom of the spring.
As the depth increased, the pressure of the water brought greater pressure to Quan Yi.
However, Quan Yi did not stop for a moment and kept swimming to the limit position that his body could bear.
At this time, the water pressure that Quan Yi was bearing, converted into weight, was roughly 100,000 kilograms. The 100,000 kilograms here was not the same concept as Quan Yi's 100,000 kilograms of load.
The 100,000 kilograms here was the pressure exerted on every inch of skin.
Having reached this point, Quan Yi only felt that the bones were very close to each other, and even simple lifting movements became extremely difficult.
Unable to continue down, Quan Yi stopped in place and focused his attention on the gauntlet.
No demon, no life.
Since there was no external replenishment of metallic energy, then use the internal metallic energy.
Quan Yi took off one of the gauntlets.
Then, he directly detonated this gauntlet and completely shattered it in a self-destructive manner.
"Pfft!"
With Quan Yi's strength, the power caused by the self-destruction was very terrifying.
The ultimate fire hidden in the martial soul burst out together. However, in the position where Quan Yi was, this terrifying energy that was enough to destroy the world only spread a few meters before being firmly controlled in place by the water pressure.
Dim metal fragments floated in front of Quan Yi.
Due to the self-destruction of the martial soul, Quan Yi felt the pain of soul separation, and his body also overflowed with traces of blood due to the impact of the martial soul's shattering.
