Fortunately, whenever Gu Chen got injured nowadays, he would make sure to transform the color of his blood back to red first; otherwise, if someone saw the pale golden color of his blood, they would undoubtedly harbor suspicious thoughts.
From the outside, Gu Chen's skin was turning jet black, and it seemed that flames were sporadically bursting out from his seven orifices. As the fierce flames continued to scorch him, his hair, eyebrows, and all body hair began to burn spontaneously. After a short while, Gu Chen looked like a piece of charcoal.
Eventually, the raging flames within Gu Chen's body began to gradually dissipate, and at the same time, a vigorous and exuberant life force surged forth from within him.
Then, with a loud bang, Gu Chen's entire body trembled. Immediately, cracks started to appear all over his charred black body, and beams of light began to shine through. The carbonized skin on Gu Chen's body started to fall off in flakes.
He had actually shed his skin!
