Chapter 116: Flame Mantra! Di Class! (2-in-1)
Xiao Yan looked at the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python on the Green Colored Lotus Platform as he recalled the information from ancient records.
The Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python was an ancient fire-attribute snake-type magical beast. It was clear that the reason Queen Medusa chose to use a Heavenly Flame to evolve and burn her own bloodline was to completely purge the yin-cold attribute and human bloodline within her body in order to restore the pure-blooded lineage of the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python.
The snake scale he found on the lotus platform back then also had seven colors, but those colors were very faint, not as rich as the colors on this little seven-colored snake before him. Xiao Yan frowned. Perhaps it was due to the collision between his own soul and Queen Medusa's soul caused by Soul Impact, coupled with the Lightning Tribulation, that led to a strange connection between him and this little snake.
This connection was so strange that even he couldn't fully understand it.
Smiling slightly, Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes and took out some Amethyst Lion Birth Essence from his storage ring. Mao Wu sprang up from its lying position and ran to his side the moment it caught the scent of the crystal.
The Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python reacted a bit slower. It slowly turned its head to look at Xiao Yan and moved its body as if it was a little scared, wanting to approach but not daring to.
"You can't handle a Heavenly Flame with your current strength. The Amethyst Lion Birth Essence is more suitable for you."
Xiao Yan took out a medicinal cauldron and poured a small cup of Amethyst Lion Birth Essence into it. He also added some fire-attribute medicinal herbs and ingredients that could strengthen the physique of magical beasts and used the Ten Thousand Beast Flame to refine
it.
He wasn't making a pill, just extracting the medicinal properties from the herbs and mixing them with the Amethyst Lion Birth Essence. He then poured the newly blended medicinal liquid into two bowls and handed them to Mao Wu and the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python.
'Infused with a trace of the Ten Thousand Beast Flame, this should be even better for magical beasts,' Xiao Yan revealed a faint smile and thought inwardly.
Mao Wu grabbed the bowl and disappeared into the void to start slurping it down. The Seed Flame required a tremendous amount of energy to grow.
The Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python slowly wriggled to the edge of the bowl, raised its head to look inside, and tentatively licked it. Its eyes immediately lit up as it began to lap it up.
After taking care of the two little ones, Xiao Yan finally picked up the Green Colored Lotus Platform and walked deeper into the cave.
As Xiao Yan walked away with the lotus platform, the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python gave him a deep look before burying its head back into the bowl and continuing to eat heartily.
Holding the Green Colored Lotus Platform in his hands, Xiao Yan gazed at the constantly swirling wisp of green flame with a somewhat intoxicated look. After a moment, a fervent light flashed through his dark eyes.
'The third Heavenly Flame... But strictly speaking, this is the first Heavenly Flame I obtained by my own power.' His previous two Heavenly Flames relied on the Hall of Souls.
Taking a deep breath of the fresh mountain air, Xiao Yan held up the Green Colored Lotus Platform and placed it in front of him. His eyes were fixed on the wisp of green flame in the lotus core that was filled with spirituality. A trace of relief and bitterness flashed across his
face.
When he opened his storage ring and came into contact with that mysterious black scroll, when he made up his mind to cultivate the Flame Mantra, he understood in his heart that searching for Heavenly Flames would become his lifelong mission.
Because only by continuously devouring Heavenly Flames could he gradually ascend to the pinnacle. If he wanted to stand at the apex of the continent's pyramid and look down on all living beings, he needed that kind of nearly insane dedication!
As long as he could refine the Green Lotus Core Flame, he believed that despite the vast gap between the Xuan Class and Di Class Qi Methods, he would still be able to evolve the Flame Mantra to Di Class.
Once he possessed a Di Class Qi Method, he was confident he could be invincible against those of the same realm. Even if they were a whole major realm higher, he still had confidence in defeating them.
'Come, Di Class!'
Xiao Yan could be considered experienced in this process, having refined two kinds of Heavenly Flames before. Although he didn't have Blood Lotus Essence Pills now, with the Ten Thousand Beast Flame strengthening his body, the protective layer it formed was enough to allow him to approach the Essence Flame of the Green Lotus Core Flame.
He knew that devouring a Heavenly Flame would cause a huge commotion. So he had Mao Wu set up numerous Nihility Devouring Flames around the entire mountain in advance to suppress the disturbance as much as possible.
The moment the Green Colored Lotus Platform was fully opened, a dazzling green light illuminated the entire cave. The Green Lotus Core Flame slowly rose from the lotus platform.
In an instant, the temperature inside the cave soared. The originally gentle Green Lotus Core Flame suddenly turned violent, as if it realized it was about to be refined and wanted to desperately resist.
Xiao Yan took a deep breath and sat down on the lotus platform in a cross-legged position. The Green Colored Lotus Platform was a precious associate treasure. It helped him remain calm, avoid Qi deviation, and heightened his sensitivity to fire-attribute energy in the
surroundings.
The Ten Thousand Beast Flame surged out of his entire body. The unique energy of the Ten Thousand Beast Flame temporarily made his body comparable to a high-rank magical beast.
Xiao Yan reached his hand into the Green Lotus Core Flame with a focused gaze. The green flames pounced over to bite him. Fortunately, his hand was spared with the protection of the Ten Thousand Beast Flame, but it still made his right hand feel a burning pain.
With the experience of refining the Ten Thousand Beast Flame, Xiao Yan was much calmer this time around.
His late-stage Mortal State Spiritual Strength swept into the Green Lotus Core Flame and instantly found the location of the Essence Flame. He grabbed the Essence Flame and directly pulled it out. After drinking a bottle of Ice Spirit Cold Fountain, he stuffed it into his mouth without any hesitation.
Xiao Yan summoned the Nihility Devouring Flame from his Acceptance Soul with a thought. It flowed against the direction of his meridians, forming a large black flame hand that enveloped the Essence Flame and prevented it from running rampant.
Mao Wu traversed the void to Xiao Yan's throat and controlled the Nihility Devouring Flame
to wrap around the Essence Flame, ensuring that the Heavenly Flame wouldn't erupt and burn
him to death.
After all, this was the Essence Flame of the Green Lotus Core Flame, and even the devouring power of the Nihility Devouring Flame couldn't completely suppress its terrifyingly high
temperature.
Enduring the pain of his meridians being burned, Xiao Yan's mind sank as he concentrated and began circulating the Flame Mantra.
'This Green Lotus Core Flame is even wilder than the Ten Thousand Beast Flame!' He wasn't
sure if it was because the Ten Thousand Beast Flame was ranked three places higher than the Green Lotus Core Flame, or if it was due to the remnant soul of the Eight-Winged Flame Demon Tiger helping when he refined the Ten Thousand Beast Flame.
The resistance of the Green Lotus Core Flame was extremely intense. Even with the assistance of his Spiritual Strength and the Nihility Devouring Flame's Seed Flame, it still took half a day
of fierce battle before the Essence Flame of the Green Lotus Core Flame was finally suppressed into his Acceptance Soul.
After leading the three Heavenly Flames through a cycle of the Flame Mantra, the Green Lotus Core Flame was finally considered completely refined.
Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on the Green Colored Lotus Platform. At this moment, perhaps due to refining the Green Lotus Core Flame, he seemed to be in a mysterious state of unawareness. The Green Lotus Core Flame slowly flowing through his meridians suddenly began circulating
along their paths.
The surrounding world's energy, along with the fire energy from the lotus platform, continuously supplied him. The Flame Mantra automatically circulated, converting this energy into Dou Qi and steadily raising his cultivation.
This state lasted for a full seven days.
Slowly opening his eyes, a wisp of green flame flickered within them.
Xiao Yan exhaled a breath of turbid air and sensed his cultivation. In seven days, he had advanced from a 2-star Dou Grandmaster to a 3-star Dou Grandmaster.
"Only an increase of one star, that's a bit low."
If others heard this, they would definitely want to beat him up. Seven days to increase one star
and you still want more! Others might not even be able to increase a star in seven months or
even several years.
However, it was understandable. Xiao Yan had originally thought he could increase by two or even three stars. Perhaps it was because Queen Medusa's evolution a few days ago had consumed the vast majority of the Green Lotus Core Flame's energy. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! Three flames-black, blood-red, and green-floated above his palm. Looking at these three kinds of Heavenly Flames, the corners of his mouth couldn't
help but reveal a hint of an excited smile.
'Three kinds now.'
At this moment, Xiao Yan suddenly thought of Xiao Xun Er who was far away at Jia Nan
Academy.
'It's probably been about a year since leaving Jia Nan Academy. I wonder how Xun Er is doing
now.'
'There are three kinds of Heavenly Flames now. That should be enough strength, right?'
A warm current couldn't help but surge in Xiao Yan's heart. No matter what the circumstances, Xun Er had always been his greatest support. The reason he had traveled far and wide, not hesitating to take risks and venture deep into dangerous lands to obtain Heavenly Flames, was all so that he could openly and rightfully marry her in the future.
He needed to possess formidable strength to do that.
Meow~~ With a sudden jolt, Xiao Yan looked over and saw Mao Wu staring at him with a face full of
resentment.
Putting away all the Heavenly Flames, Xiao Yan couldn't help but rub his nose in embarrassment as he chuckled, "Hehe, I accidentally got too absorbed in my cultivation. I'll
get to it right away, right away."
He had gotten so immersed in this session that he completely forgot about Mao Wu and the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python for a full seven days.
Only after taking out the medicinal cauldron, refining another batch of specially made Amethyst Lion Birth Essence, and appeasing the two little ones did Xiao Yan settle his mind to
sense the evolved Flame Mantra.
Rumble rumble rumble!!! The moment Xiao Yan circulated the Flame Mantra, he felt the surrounding world's energy madly surge into his body from all directions like a waterfall. The three kinds of Heavenly Flames transformed into a bottomless vortex, rapidly converting any type of natural energy into Dou Qi.
What had once been a mere lake-like Qi cyclone was now a raging torrent that surged in a vast
and turbulent manner
"Di Class, low-level!!!"
Xiao Yan sensed the might of his Qi Method and could not help but be stunned for a moment.
He stared at the wide, ferocious Qi cyclone that resembled a raging river, and it took him a long moment to gradually come to his senses.
With a thought, a wisp of Dou Qi infused with Heavenly Flames instantly flowed out from the
Qi cyclone and then quickly circulated through his meridians. The circulation speed of this Dou Qi was on a completely different level compared to before!
As the Dou Qi began circulating, Xiao Yan could clearly feel an extremely powerful force
rapidly awakening within his body, almost instantly reaching its peak.
"Fast, fierce, and rich!" Xiao Yan marveled at the power within him and finally understood the
terrifying gap between the Di Class and Xuan Class Qi Methods.
They were in completely different leagues!!
The difference in Dou Qi circulation, energy conversion, quality or quantity was like
comparing two entirely different dimensions!
After the Flame Mantra evolved to the Di Class, Xiao Yan discovered that the evolved Qi
Method's paths had clearly become more complex compared to before. However, what was
slightly strange was that although the paths became more intricate, the time it took to complete one cycle of the Qi Method was becoming shorter and shorter.
The powerful force within his body was already eagerly awaiting its master's command, ready
to fiercely unleash that surging power at any time.
With a thought, a set of green Dou Qi armor instantly condensed around his body. Not only did
he have the Dou Qi armor, but underneath, his body was also enveloped in the blood-red Ten Thousand Beast Flame, equivalent to having two layers of defense!
Moreover, he still had the Nihility Devouring Flame within his body. Even if an opponent's
Dou Technique possessed penetrative power and pierced through his defenses into his body, it would still be devoured by the Nihility Devouring Flame.
With his current strength, Xiao Yan estimated that even if the sealed Hai Bodong fought with
all his might, he could still defeat him! "Come back into the lotus platform, I want to test out a Dou Technique."
Xiao Yan opened the lotus platform and placed the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python
and Mao Wu inside.
After preparing everything, he walked out of the cave and slowly flew into the sky. Looking at the small mountain peak in front of him, he flicked his finger and the Heavy Xuan Ruler instantly appeared in his palm.
'Now that the Flame Mantra has evolved to the Di Class, the Heavy Xuan Ruler can no longer
suppress my Dou Qi!'
The most obvious change from the Flame Mantra's evolution was that the Heavy Xuan Ruler's suppression had completely lost effect. The terror of a Di Class Qi Method left even the Heavy Xuan Ruler helpless.
'I heard that a perfected Flame Splitting Tsunami can split mountains and seas. I wonder if a Flame Splitting Tsunami fused with Heavenly Flames and matched with a Di Class Qi Method can achieve that!' Xiao Yan licked his lips. He had only cultivated the Flame Splitting Tsunami
to the minor level, not even to the major level, let alone to perfection. But now he not only had three kinds of Heavenly Flames into him, but also possessed a Di
Class Qi Method. He wanted to test the limits of the Flame Splitting Tsunami under these peak conditions!
Buzz!!! Dou Qi rapidly surged through his body. With a wild roar, the Heavy Xuan Ruler
erupted in terrifying flames. The merged Heavenly Flames gushed from his palm and enveloped the entire ruler.
Once the Heavenly Flames emerge, who could contend against them!
The Heavy Xuan Ruler in Xiao Yan's hand was like a sun, scorching hot enough to incinerate
everything. In the past, he couldn't fully unleash the true power of the Heavenly Flames due to his strength at the Dou Grandmaster realm. But now that the Flame Mantra had reached the Di Class, the evolved Flame Mantra could help him bring out even more of the Heavenly Flames'
power.
Xiao Yan tightly gripped the handle of the Heavy Xuan Ruler. The entire ruler transformed
into a Heavenly Flame heavy sword. Beneath this ruler, everything would be incinerated. "Flame Splitting Tsunami!!"
He grabbed the ruler with both hands and swung it down with great force!
The Heavy Xuan Ruler descended, and stones exploded upon impact. Amidst the clanging of the ruler, a hundred-meter-long flame light bombarded the small mountain peak that stood hundreds of meters high.
The entire small mountain peak was instantly split open. With a thunderous boom, the flame
light erupted, and the terrifying blaze transformed into a raging inferno that engulfed everything.
When the flames finally dissipated, the pitiful small mountain peak had completely vanished.
All the rocks and vegetation had been burned into nothingness by the Heavenly Flames'
terrifying high temperature.
Xiao Yan wiped the sweat from his brow and exhaled deeply. 'Phew, although the consumption is immense, a Flame Splitting Tsunami fused with Heavenly Flames should possess the power of a peak Dou Spirit or even a Dou King.'
In actual combat, he wouldn't be able to match a Dou King with a Di Class Dou Technique, but
against those with Xuan Class Dou Techniques, his Flame Splitting Tsunami would surpassNôv(el)B\\jnn
them.
The gap between Di Class and Xuan Class was vast, akin to a chasm.
Xiao Yan was extremely satisfied with the evolution of his Qi Method.
'If I can refine the Fallen Heart Flame from Jia Nan Academy, and then refine the Bone Chilling
Flame in my storage ring, will there be a chance for the Flame Mantra to evolve to the Tian
Class?' After all, the Fallen Heart Flame was ranked 14th, even higher than the Green Lotus Core Flame, and the Bone Chilling Flame was ranked even higher at 11th! However, after pondering for a while, Xiao Yan felt it would still be a bit difficult. The Flame Mantra was only at the Low Di Class. It seemed a bit insufficient to reach Tian Class. 'If I could refine the 3rd-ranked Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame...' Xiao Yan took out the map
fragment and looked in the direction of Desert City. Perhaps it was time to find Hai Bodong.
