Under his conscious control, the demonic energy did not merge into the meridians or touch the True Essence, but instead surged towards the golden runes covering the surface of his skin.
A few breaths later.
The golden runes emitting a faint golden light grew dimmer until they disappeared.
Not long after, the vanished runes were tinged with an eerie glow.
Under Lin Zheyu's control, these runes, flickering with the eerie glow, emerged proactively, gathering into a faint energy membrane that covered his entire body.
Boom!
Suddenly, Lin Zheyu's body reflexively shuddered lightly, and the membrane of eerie glow on his body instantly shattered and vanished.
The runes flickering with golden light reappeared.
"..."
A hint of helplessness flashed across Lin Zheyu's face.
He took a deep breath and continued with a second attempt.
After the previous attempt, this time was much faster and more adept.
A few breaths later, he failed again.
The third time...
The fourth time...
Sss——
