Divine Fire
At this moment, a figure that had been hiding in the shadows of the Vermillion Bird Clan's encampment disappeared.
This person was none other than Dark Sword.
Dark Sword shook his head helplessly. "Although I killed Yi Yang and the others, the Holy Maiden of the Vermillion Bird Clan still knows how powerful this Carefree King is. It seems that the Vermillion Bird Clan and the Carefree King can't fight each other this time. However, for the sake of the transcendence of this divine artifact, the Vermillion Bird Clan will probably have to put their minds to work and deal with the Carefree King!"
Although Dark Sword had killed Yi Yang and the others, it was too late to reach Free Holy City to deal with Yi Feng and the others. So it could only hope that the Great Saintess would not remember this matter. However, the Great Saintess did not remember, but the Third Saintess Feng Xing remembered, which caused Dark Sword to fail.
"Please spread the word that the Great Saintess of the Vermillion Bird Clan has arrived and wishes to meet with Senior Carefree King!" Feng Ming said to the gatekeeper of the Lan Mansion.
"Please wait a moment! I'll go and report right away!" The servant was, after all, a cultivator from the Spirit Realm and had some understanding of the Realm of Divine Beasts. He knew the status of the Vermillion Bird Clan's Holy Maiden and immediately went to report.
Feng Ming nodded and stood outside the door.
At this moment, Feng Xing, who was next to Feng Ming, said, "Ah, eldest sister, look at the Lan Mansion in the courtyard. Wow, it's so beautiful! We in the Realm of Divine Beasts have never seen such a pavilion before, and it's also rare in the Spirit Realm. It's really beautiful and ingenious!" This pavilion is the kind of pavilion that only exists in the Cultivation World. It was also built by people from the Spirit Realm based on the blueprints drawn by Lan Hai Tian himself.
Feng Ming nodded with a smile and said, "Indeed, when Lan Hai Tian became famous in the Spirit Realm, it was because of his ingenious architectural skills that he started to make his fortune. Do you know how many spirit stones it would take to commission Lan Hai Tian to build a pavilion back then? However, Lan Hai Tian no longer does this and no longer builds those pavilions."
Both Feng Ming and Feng Xing possessed an aura of nobility. Cultivators forming dao companion don't consider physical appearance, as any cultivator can easily change their appearance. Therefore, almost all cultivators choose dao companion based on their overall demeanor.
At this moment, three men who considered themselves to be of high status began to approach Feng Ming and Feng Xing.
The three Golden Guards stood behind the two Holy Maidens, turning back to give the three men a cold look. Their auras suddenly erupted, brooking no one to approach.
The three men were not ordinary people; they were three brothers from the Sheng Family, holding a prestigious position within the Sheng Family, probably second only to Sheng Hao. They were known as the three young masters of the Sheng Family, Wind Ming Flash.
All three possessed the power of Low-grade Divine Human. More importantly, when the three joined forces and unleashed their ultimate technique, Wind Ming Flash, even Mid-grade Divine Human would likely find it difficult to withstand. Of the five young masters of the Sheng Family, the fifth young master is probably the least well-known.
It is said that this fifth young master is the child of the head of the Sheng Family and a maid. When the wife of the head of the Sheng Family found out about this, she immediately killed the maid. The head of the Sheng Family was powerless to do anything about it, because the wife of the Sheng Family was the daughter of the Spirit Venerable Chihuo, and had the same fiery temper.
One theory is that the Fifth Young Master was killed by the wife of the head of the Sheng Family long ago.
Another account says that the fifth young master was imprisoned at home and never came out.
Another theory is that the Fifth Young Master left the Sheng Family long ago and lived a quiet life in a small place in the Spirit Realm.
In the eyes of the Sheng Family, these five young masters are a disgrace to the Sheng Family and are forbidden to be discussed by outsiders. However, the other four young masters are the pride of the Sheng Family.
"I am Sheng Feng of the Sheng Family. These are my two younger brothers Sheng Ming and Sheng Shan. How about we invite the two young ladies to rest and have some dishes from the Spirit Realm at the restaurant next door?" With Sheng Feng's discerning eye, he could naturally tell that these people were from the Vermillion Bird Clan.
In the Spirit Realm, the Phoenix holds a very high status, even higher than that of ordinary Spirit Realm beings. This is because the Phoenix's inextinguishable flames possess the power of divine fire, which is unstoppable by lower -Low-grade Divine Human, and even Mid-grade Divine Human can only withstand it with the aid of divine artifacts.
The reason why even gods and immortals in the Cultivation World cannot withstand divine fire is because none of them have reached the Mid-grade Divine Human realm. Consider that Pangu's partially completed Six Revolutions Profound Body could withstand it for a short time; this leads to the conclusion.
Feng Ming frowned. "The third young master of the Sheng Family?" Feng Ming turned to look at the three young masters and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, gentlemen, my sister and I are waiting here for Senior Carefree King. We'll talk about it another time!"
Feng Ming sneered inwardly, "When we have time later? Once things are settled with the Carefree King, my third sister and I will immediately return to the clan!"
"Ah, so it's Miss Feng Ming, the Great Saintess of the Vermillion Bird Clan. It's been a long time since we last met?" Lang Haitian walked out with a smile.
Upon seeing that it was Lan Hai Tian, Feng Ming immediately said, "Master Lan must be quite content with being a wealthy man. After all these years, your cultivation level is still only at the Low-grade Divine Human. It's truly admirable. Back then, Master Lan was about the same level as me!"
Lan Hai Tian shook his head and smiled bitterly. How could outsiders understand everything he did in the Spirit Realm? Feng Ming suddenly said, "By the way, Mr. Rich, where is Senior Carefree King? I came here specifically to find Senior Carefree King."
Lan Hai Tian, "Feng Ming, you and I are old friends, so I'll tell you that Senior Carefree King left the Lan Mansion a few days ago, and I really don't know when he will return."
Feng Ming immediately frowned deeply.
The three people standing to the side, including Sheng Feng, immediately beamed with joy.
"Miss Feng Ming and this Phoenix Clan girl, let's go to the restaurant next door for a drink and a bite to eat. Come on, it's on us three brothers!"
Feng Ming looked at Feng Xing helplessly, while Feng Xing was eager to try. Having just left the Phoenix Clan, Feng Xing was curious about everything and wanted to try everything.
"Then please lead the way, gentlemen!" Feng Ming said with a smile, but she was extremely helpless. She had originally planned to leave as soon as this matter was over, but she did not expect that the Carefree King was not here at all.
Where is Zhang Xingfeng at this moment?
He is practicing cultivation!
Cultivate the Divine Fire Body!
Back when Zhang Xingfeng was on Despair Star, his physical body had already broken through to the Immortal Undying Body realm, and his body began to emit a faint protective purple light!
The Fire Origin Secret Canon Manual contains this cultivation method, and cultivating the Divine Fire Body is merely the foundation of the Fire Origin Secret Canon.
Zhang Xingfeng's cultivation has now reached the mid-stage of Immortal Emperor, and his physical body has also reached the mid-stage of the Divine Fire Body. However, although his physical body is strong, he has never absorbed divine fire, so he can only be considered to be about the same as the Six Revolutions Profound Body.
According to the cultivation method described in the "Fire Origin Secret Canon," once Zhang Xingfeng breaks through to the late stage of Immortal Emperor, the power within his body will gradually transform into the Divine Power, directly reaching the realm of a Celestial God.
Just like Pangu back then, after breaking through the late stage of the Immortal Emperor realm, Pangu achieved the Six Great Accomplishment of the Six Revolutions Profound Body and directly became a celestial god!
Of course, there is still a transformation process involved, just like the Great Cultivation World Great Accomplishment. Cultivators in the Great Accomplishment stage gradually transform their True Primordial Energy into Immortal Essence. Zhang Xingfeng will be the same in the future; the Limitless Power within his body, influenced by the Fire Essence, will also slowly transform into the Divine Power.
Like the Realm of Divine Beasts, the Spirit Realm is omnipresent on the planet of immortal purity.
Compared to cultivation realms, Immortal Crystal Planet are equivalent to planets. Stars, on the other hand, emit towering flames that illuminate the entire realm.
Zhang Xingfeng chose a giant star, and his body shot straight towards it like a meteorite.
"Whoosh..."
The flames instantly enveloped Zhang Xingfeng, and the immense heat was enough to incinerate a planet in an instant, but it couldn't even touch Zhang Xingfeng's body.
"Drink!"
With a low shout, Zhang Xingfeng's protective purple light immediately began to rise. He circulated Zhang Xingfeng Limitless Power, and his entire body's energy began to burst forth. The protective purple light was like a sharp sword, piercing through the barrier of flames and rushing directly towards the core of the star!
Zhang Xingfeng wore a faint smile, yet the protective purple light surrounding him surged like a towering tidal wave. The purple light, stretching for tens of thousands of feet, resembled a massive warship, and Zhang Xingfeng, as if in control, led this purple light vessel into the heart of the star with a gentle smile.
The pressure was mounting, and the flames had changed from the initial Earthly Flame to the current Blazing Heavenly Fire. Zhang Xingfeng's protective purple light had also shrunk by nearly ten times, but it had become more solid.
Keep going!
Light blue Blazing Heavenly Fire, blue Blazing Heavenly Fire... dark blue Blazing Heavenly Fire!
The protective purple light surrounding Zhang Xingfeng's body continued to compress and solidify. Within the Blazing Heavenly Fire Domain, the protective purple light surrounding Zhang Xingfeng's body was only a hundred feet long.
"Boom!"
A ball of black flame struck Zhang Xingfeng.
"Damn, I'm pretty lucky to have gotten to this place before being hit by the divine fire." Zhang Xingfeng smiled as he looked at the divine fire that kept erupting around him. Although his current physical strength meant he couldn't withstand the torment of the divine fire for long, he could still endure it for a moment.
"Yes, I'll cultivate for a while at the edge of the deep blue Blazing Heavenly Fire!"
Zhang Xingfeng's body transformed into purple light, Void Breaker like lightning; even divine fire could not stop his advance.
"Ah!"
Zhang Xingfeng stared in astonishment at everything before him.
He was now sitting cross-legged on the edge of the Blazing Heavenly Fire. He could clearly see the divine fire erupting continuously in the distance, and he would be attacked by the divine fire almost every ten breaths.
What surprised him most was... the Divine Fire Crystal Core! He finally saw the Divine Fire Crystal Core, and he understood why stars had such great heat. It was because there were so many Divine Fire Crystal Core in the stars, as many as a mountain.
Zhang Xingfeng's initial estimate is that there are at least tens of thousands of Divine Fire Crystal Core in the miniature mountain at the center of this giant star!
To put this into perspective, a single Divine Fire Crystal Core transformed the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow, originally only Top-grade Immortal Artifact, into a top-tier Divine Artifact! The importance of Divine Fire Crystal Core is unimaginable. Moreover, even in the Divine Realm Divine Fire Crystal Core are incredibly precious because the Divine Realm has no stars; it's an endless expanse of land. It's similar to the Immortal Realm, only a million times larger!
"No rush, let's cultivate the Divine Fire Body first!" Zhang Xingfeng smiled slightly, but his expression instantly turned solemn, and the protective purple light around his body grew brighter and brighter.
"Drink! Drink! Drink!" Zhang Xingfeng roared, unleashing his immense physical power. The protective purple light around him surged wildly in all directions like giant javelins. As if he didn't care about his life, Zhang Xingfeng unleashed the protective purple light with frenzied abandon. In an instant, Zhang Xingfeng resembled a star, with countless purple javelins emanating from his surroundings...
A ball of divine fire slammed heavily onto Zhang Xingfeng.
Zhang Xingfeng stood there suspended in mid-air, with endless flames beneath his feet, endless Blazing Heavenly Fire behind him, and black divine fire in front of him. How vast are the stars? How vast is the range of these flames? A sea of fire? No, much larger than the ocean. Under such flames, Zhang Xingfeng was like an ant, but he smiled calmly, letting the divine fire attack and the flames scorch him, he remained unmoved!
Zhang Xingfeng activated the Mnemonic of the "Fire Origin Secret Canon" and began to absorb the divine fire. The reason he unleashed the protective purple light completely was that only in this way could he temper his body to a greater extent. Otherwise, under the protection of the protective purple light, the Divine Fire Body could not Great Accomplishment.
A wisp of divine fire began to be absorbed by his skin, penetrating deep into his cells. Through Zhang Xingfeng's cultivation, his physical body had reached the intermediate level of the Divine Fire Body, making it very easy for him to absorb divine fire.
Wisps of divine fire within Zhang Xingfeng's body continuously tempered his meridians, muscles, and bones. Every part of his body was being refined and integrated by this divine fire, and Zhang Xingfeng's body slowly began to turn black...
"Boom!"
Another ball of divine fire attacked, Zhang Xingfeng accepted it without hesitation, continuing to absorb it. At the same moment, Zhang Xingfeng's Purple Gold Yuan Venerable absorbed it even faster than Zhang Xingfeng's physical body.
This Purple Gold Yuan Venerable to have no regard for his life, as Zhang Xingfeng was absorbing ninety percent of the divine fire that was being drawn into his body!
However, Zhang Xingfeng's Divine Sense clearly observed that the Origin of Fire inside the Purple Gold Yuan Venerable was like a black hole, constantly absorbing the divine fire absorbed by the Purple Gold Yuan Venerable!
This Origin of Fire is like a bottomless pit; once absorbed, the Origin of Fire remains completely unchanged.
"I refuse to believe it. This Origin of Fire is so absorbent. I want to see how much it can absorb!" Zhang Xingfeng's figure flashed, and he continued to advance towards the Divine Fire Domain. Finally... Zhang Xingfeng arrived at the border between the Divine Fire Domain Blazing Heavenly Fire Domain.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!...
The divine fire was so dense at that moment that almost every breath, two balls of divine fire rushed in.
Zhang Xingfeng's body continuously absorbed and fused with the divine fire, compressing each point of divine fire to its limit. The original ball of divine fire was probably only enough to fuse with a single cell within Zhang Xingfeng's body.
At this moment, the Purple Gold Yuan Venerable accelerated his absorption speed, and he absorbed 99% of the divine fire that had entered his body! The Origin of Fire remained like a bottomless pit, without any reaction whatsoever.
"Damn it, when will this end? I told Yu Yan to wait for me at the Lan Mansion, I can't keep her waiting too long. Fine, let's rush inside!"
Zhang Xingfeng finally rushed into the Divine Fire Domain.
The endless divine fire was like a towering wave, while Zhang Xingfeng was like a small fish in the ocean, constantly absorbing it. But even if he absorbed it, it was nothing to the endless divine fire!
"Call out!"
Finally, as if it could no longer hold back, the Purple Gold Yuan Venerable suddenly burst out of Zhang Xingfeng's body.
"Whoosh..."
The bottomless pit of the Origin of Fire finally unleashed its power, with endless divine fire rushing madly into the Purple Gold Yuan Venerable. Under the absorption of the Origin of Fire, it accepted everything without hesitation.
"Whoosh..."
Like a vortex, if you stand in the domain of the Blazing Heavenly Fire, you can see that there is a huge vortex in the domain of divine fire, into which endless divine fire is trapped, but it has never come out...
