"The Frenzy Life-Shortening Pill! He's sacrificing his lifespan for a temporary, explosive boost in strength!"
Ling Chen was startled. Frenzy Life-Shortening Pills are rare, but nearly all top-tier sects keep some in their treasury. The major drawback of this pill is that while it can unlock a person's potential and dramatically increase their strength, it costs twenty years of the user's lifespan. Ordinary people wouldn't gamble with their lives so recklessly, not unless they had a death wish. Xing Tian, right now, is clearly risking his life to protect the Myriad Dao Sect. That's somewhat admirable. Everyone has something they want to protect. If this were the Cyan Robe Association, and the people he had to protect were present, he would probably do the same—fight with everything he has.
