Fang Chen nodded.
At that moment, star patterns appeared on the Floating Immortal Sword's blade. As the stars flickered, streams of cool air flowed from the sword into Fang Chen's body. The heat tormenting him vanished, and he felt refreshed at once.
The cool air did more than dispel the heat. When it entered his mind, his Soul Origin opened its mouth and devoured it. Fang Chen felt the power of his Soul Origin rise rapidly.
He had not expected the energy the Floating Immortal Sword returned to him after absorbing that mysterious power to strengthen his Soul Power so dramatically.
The Myna bird looked at Fang Chen with concern. "Are you still going to keep exploring?"
Fang Chen nodded. "We've come this far. Of course I am!"
"Aren't you afraid you'll be consumed by the flames?"
The Myna bird watched Fang Chen anxiously.
Fang Chen shook his head. "No. I wasn't prepared just now, so I let that mysterious power enter my body. Now I can keep it outside. If it can't get in, it can't hurt me!"
Although Fang Chen had relied on the energy returned by the Floating Immortal Sword to ease his discomfort, he would not tell the Myna bird that secret, even though the bird was a good friend.
He did not want anyone to know the Floating Immortal Sword's secret.
He had not even told Quasi-Emperor Huo Li. Quasi-Emperor Huo Li knew the Floating Immortal Sword was unusual, but he did not know exactly what it could do.
"You can actually withstand this mysterious energy?"
The Myna bird stared at Fang Chen in shock. The bird had tried to resist the energy too, but it was overbearing and could seep through almost anything. Within this space, it was everywhere.
"Yes. Can't you withstand it?"
