Heavenly Flame Three Transformations

Jiang Xing returned to the Snake-People Tribe at top speed, as if he had never left at all.

Only after returning to his room did Jiang Xing begin carefully examining the damaged jade fragment that was suspected to contain the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations.

The Heavenly Flame Three Transformations had originally been the treasure guarding Burning Flame Valley. It was created by Xiao Yan's ancestor, Xiao Xuan, then passed down to Burning Flame Valley's founder, the Burning Flame Forefather, and was thus regarded as the valley's greatest treasure.

When the protagonist Xiao Yan was a Five-Star Dou Venerate, this secret art allowed his strength to reach nearly that of an Eight-Star Dou Venerate. Later, after meeting Xiao Xuan's soul in the ancient tomb, he successfully obtained the final incantation.

Jiang Xing knew that the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations possessed three transformations. Once activated, it erupted the Heavenly Flames within one's body, producing an immensely powerful energy that could raise one's strength for a short time.

Naturally, this secret art also had side effects.

After using the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations, the excessively violent energy would damage one's meridians and injure the body, causing the user to enter a period of weakness.

Jiang Xing also possessed secret arts, but none suited him as well as the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations created by Xiao Xuan.

As someone cultivating the Flame Mantra, he would certainly possess many Heavenly Flames. If he used the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations after obtaining three Heavenly Flames, his strength could surge three times in succession, each increase greater than the last. The resulting boost would surely be beyond Jiang Xing's imagination.

Jiang Xing even suspected that Xiao Xuan had been called the greatest person below a Dou Emperor because of the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations. After all, Xiao Xuan had happened to possess exactly three Heavenly Flames!

A flame emerged from his palm, and he controlled it as it burned toward the jade fragment.

In the original story, Xiao Yan had melted this jade fragment with the Green Lotus Core Flame to obtain the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations.

However, Jiang Xing's fused flame was far stronger than the Green Lotus Core Flame. Afraid of burning the fragment away completely, he could only carefully raise the flame's temperature bit by bit.

As the temperature rose, the jade fragment finally began to melt slowly, eventually turning into a pool of green liquid.

Suddenly, a dazzling green beam shot out from the liquid.

The green light formed a curtain of light, upon which several large words were clearly written: "Heavenly Flame Three Transformations."

"It really is the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations."

The light curtain alone was impossible to understand, so Jiang Xing directly inserted a finger into the green liquid.

The moment he did, countless pieces of information about the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations flooded into his mind.

Fortunately, Jiang Xing's Soul Strength was powerful, so the enormous amount of information did not overwhelm him into unconsciousness.

Before long, Jiang Xing's mind had finally absorbed all the information on the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations.

Just as the original story had said, the damaged jade fragment contained only the first transformation of the Heavenly Flame Three Transformations.

The Heavenly Flame Three Transformations had three transformations. It seemed he would have to make a trip to Burning Flame Valley and snatch the remaining two.

And while he was there, he could take Burning Flame Valley's Nine Dragon Lightning Flame as well.

The Nine Dragon Lightning Flame had been passed down through Burning Flame Valley for centuries. Generations of experts had left Blood Soul Imprints within its origin that were almost impossible to erase.

Only by cultivating Burning Flame Valley's valley-guarding technique, the Azure Nether Flame Art, could one refine the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame.

Jiang Xing did not know whether his grandfather could erase the imprints on the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame.

But Jiang Xing thought, even if the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame had restrictions that prevented it from being absorbed, he could still use it to fuse Heavenly Flames and unleash the Furious Buddha Lotus Flame.

After all, he had already fused three Heavenly Flames: the Green Lotus Core Flame, the Fallen Heart Flame, and the Sea Heart Flame.

Moreover, he still had the Wind Fury Dragon Flame and the Bone Chilling Flame in his possession.

Once he refined the Wind Fury Dragon Flame and the Bone Chilling Flame as well, he would possess five Heavenly Flames.

When Xiao Yan, as an Eight-Star Dou Venerate, used a four-colored half-fire lotus, he had been able to blast the Human Scorpion, a peak Six-Star Dou Venerate, into nothing but dust.

If Jiang Xing seized Burning Flame Valley's Nine Dragon Lightning Flame, then once he unleashed a six-colored fire lotus, even a Half-Saint probably would not be able to withstand its power.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xing could hardly wait to absorb more Heavenly Flames.

Jiang Xing had the Bone Chilling Flame and the Wind Fury Dragon Flame in hand. To be safe, he decided to absorb the Wind Fury Dragon Flame first.

Although Gu Xun'er knew that Xiao Yan possessed the Wind Fury Dragon Flame, Jiang Xing was not worried.

His Heavenly Flame was already a fusion of several flames, and its color would certainly change after fusion.

Furthermore, the aura of the lower-ranked Wind Fury Dragon Flame would be concealed by the higher-ranked Heavenly Flames.

Thus, Jiang Xing had no fear of Gu Xun'er recognizing it.

However, Jiang Xing did not absorb it immediately. Though the Wind Fury Dragon Flame was only the eighteenth-ranked Heavenly Flame, refining and fusing it would still take several days, even with Jiang Xing's current Dou Venerate strength.

Before Medusa had awakened, Jiang Xing could absorb it whenever he pleased.

But things were different now.

Medusa had awakened, and they had even confirmed their relationship.

Jiang Xing felt that silently entering seclusion like this would be somewhat inappropriate.

So Jiang Xing left his room and headed toward the main hall.

Medusa was a highly responsible Queen. Other than cultivating, the Queen would certainly be handling official affairs at this hour.

When he arrived at the main hall, the guards at the entrance saw Jiang Xing and respectfully called out as before, "Queen Consort!"

Jiang Xing smiled and nodded at them before walking straight into the hall.

Upon entering, Jiang Xing indeed saw the Queen handling official affairs from the throne above.

However, this time, after realizing Jiang Xing had arrived, the Queen did not raise her head. Instead, she said, "Wait until I finish dealing with these."

Hearing Queen say this, Jiang Xing found himself a seat and sat down.

After sitting down, Jiang Xing did not disturb Queen, simply watching quietly as she handled official business.

It had to be said, Queen was truly captivating when she worked with such focus.

Captivating as she was, though, Jiang Xing wondered whether so much of the Snake-People Tribe's official business would affect her cultivation.

Jiang Xing did not want Queen's cultivation to suffer because she was bogged down by such trivial matters.

Jiang Xing began considering how to persuade Queen to delegate some of her authority and focus more on cultivation.

Before long, Queen finished reviewing the last report, set down her pen, and looked up at Jiang Xing.

"Did you come here to see me for something?"

Queen did not refer to herself as "this Queen" when she spoke. In the past, she had been too afraid of Jiang Xing to do so, while now, they were familiar enough that there was no need for it.

Still, Jiang Xing felt that Medusa would be better off calling herself "this Queen" at certain moments.

There was no other reason.

It was simply thrilling!

Jiang Xing said, "I'm planning to enter seclusion for a few days to refine the Heavenly Flames. I came to let you know."

Upon hearing that Jiang Xing would be entering seclusion for several days, Medusa's expression did not change in the slightest. She merely said flatly, "Alright, I understand."

Jiang Xing was left rather speechless by Queen's frosty response.

He inwardly complained, With the relationship we have, shouldn't you show a little concern when I'm absorbing Heavenly Flames?
