Learning the Golden Crow's True Flame
Lu Yang was actually very curious to know how the ten jade rabbits should be distributed now that the nine golden crows had returned. Should they mate together, or should the extra one be roasted by the Immortal Fairy to poison the Four High Antiquity Immortals?
He felt he didn't need to know so much about his dark past; it was useless for cultivation, and he might even have a hard time surviving if he encountered the Four Immortals of High Antiquity in the future.
Lu Yang didn't have a positive image of the Four Immortals of High Antiquity in his mind right now. If he tried to get close to them as soon as they met, saying that he had a very good relationship with the Immortal Fairy and that he listened to her tell stories about them every day, he would be very disappointed.
I'm afraid he can't be saved.
"Well, after listening to my story, did it greatly help you comprehend the Golden Crow True Flame?"
Knowing the stories behind them allows for a deeper understanding of the essence of Law Technique Divine Ability —this is a well-known fact in the cultivation world. Unfortunately, the history of Law Technique Divine Ability on the market is too ancient to trace back to the original time, and we don't know what exactly happened back then.
For Lu Yang, listening to the Immortal Fairy recount the stories behind Law Technique and Law Technique Divine Ability would only diminish his understanding of Divine Ability.
"Golden Crow True Flame..."
He Law Power to capture a small flower, which bloomed at his fingertips. Even though it was just a tiny speck, the energy it contained was immeasurable.
Lu Yang stared at the Golden Crow True Flame, slowly closed his eyes, and began to comprehend the flame's inner meaning.
"Which flame should I choose?" Man Gu was very conflicted. For him, the best thing would be to learn the Samadhi Fire. He had tried to learn it from Lu Yang, but he hadn't learned it, or rather, he had no idea where to start learning it.
"Choosing the Nirvana Fire like Brother Meng?"
Watching Meng Jingzhou gradually refine the Nirvana True Fire, with wisps of flames rising and falling, Man Gu shook his head. "No, no, this is the True Fire of the Demon Race. Not only is it incompatible with my bloodline, but my comprehension is also not as high as Brother Meng's. I cannot comprehend the True Fire across races."
"Taiyin True Fire? No, my Blood Qi is too strong. Comprehending Taiyin True Fire would suppress my Blood Qi and reduce my strength."
"The True Fire of Chaos? That's not appropriate. I know nothing about chaos and cannot comprehend it."
"The Purple Star Heavenly Fire? That's not suitable. Now that the stars are gone, the Purple Star Heavenly Fire, which originated from the Purple Star, is a fire without roots. Even if it has great power, it is difficult to use for a long time."
"This flame seems somewhat familiar, I can give it a try." Man Gu was delighted and sat cross-legged in front of a ball of flame.
That is the Samadhi Fire.
Tao Yaoye was also struggling with which flame to choose. She walked past the Golden Crow True Fire, the Taiyin True Fire, and the Great Evolution True Fire one by one, but she didn't feel anything. None of them were the right true fire for her.
Finally, she sat cross-legged in front of a flame that emitted birdsong.
Nanming Lihuo.
Lu Yang's comprehension deepened, and he seemed to transform into the sun, hanging high in the sky, illuminating the earth and bestowing blessings upon all things. Suddenly, a large hand seized him and placed him alongside a rabbit...
"Look at Lu Yang! He's clearly comprehending the Golden Crow True Flame, yet two powers, Yin and Yang, are emanating from his body, and these two powers seem to be merging!"
The disciples of the Five Elements Sect gasped in astonishment at this sight. To comprehend the power of Yin from the power of the sun—what an incredible level of comprehension!
Not to mention the fusion of two extreme forces!
This person's skill in True Flame is terrifying!
Even the Five Elders and Qiu Jin'an were moved by this scene. Such talent is probably rare, perhaps only two or three in history!
"Old Song, this kid's talent is terrifying!" Elder Jin transmitted his voice to Song Duantian. They had a deep grudge against the Silent Daoist, and now that Lu Yang was in their hands, shouldn't they give him a good beating to vent their anger?
As the saying goes, "A teacher for a day is a father for life," and "A son inherits his father's profession, and a son pays for his father's debts." So it's perfectly acceptable for Lu Yang to repay his debts!
Song Duantian frowned deeply. "If this boy isn't eliminated, he will definitely remember what we did today, and he will surely become a great threat in the future!"
"It's a potential problem."
What should we do?
The Golden Vein Elder stared intently at Lu Yang, his heart filled with turmoil, before finally revealing a fierce expression, as if he were making some kind of decision.
"At worst, we'll just forget about that old scoundrel's grudge from now on!"
"Look, Lu Yang only has the power of the sun left!"
Lu Yang was unaware of the opinions of the elders from the Gold and Fire veins; his immediate priority was to quickly forget his earlier insights.
He was almost led astray by the Immortal Fairy and forced to comprehend the method of the fusion of Yin and Yang.
That's dangerous.
He rediscovered the true essence of the Golden Crow Flame, transforming into the sun to roam the heavens, where all things flourished and thrived.
The sun looked like a balloon, constantly expanding and shrinking, as if it might burst at any moment, which was heartbreaking to watch.
Suddenly, a bird's song came from inside the sun, its sound melodious and full of energy.
"It's done!" Lu Yang exclaimed with joy, opening his eyes wide, which turned red like two small suns.
He blinked, and his eyes returned to normal, clear and bright, like a child's. Everything that had just happened seemed like an illusion, making one hesitate.
"You succeeded?" Bai Ming asked in surprise. The true fire he controlled was the Golden Crow True Flame, and he knew how difficult it was to comprehend such a true fire.
"We'll know once we try," Lu Yang said with a smile, very confident that there would be no problem this time, as he had a thorough understanding of the Golden Crow True Flame.
Lu Yang opened his left palm, and a ball of flame appeared, causing the surrounding temperature to rise sharply.
The flames flickered in the air, gradually taking shape, and it was beginning to resemble a bird.
"True Flame Mimicry?" Bai Ming exclaimed in a low voice. The shape of the flame is unpredictable, requiring extremely high control to mold it into the desired shape. Ordinary cultivators cannot do this without fifty years of arduous training.
Moreover, judging from Lu Yang's effortless demeanor, it doesn't seem like Lu Yang is deliberately mimicking; it's more like the true flame naturally manifested in this form!
Lu Yang's lips curled into a confident smile. He raised two fingers of his right hand to his lips and gave a nonchalant, light shout, "True Flame, appear!"
The true flames transformed into a golden crow, lifelike and exquisitely detailed, as if it had come to life.
"The True Flame has transformed into a Golden Crow?" Bai Ming exclaimed again, this time unable to suppress his shock and shouting it out loud.
The disciples and elders of the Five Elements Sect had already noticed Lu Yang's situation.
"He can transform True Flame into a Golden Crow on his very first try?"
"No, look, the Golden Crow has three legs, but Lu Yang's Golden Crow only has two!"
"A golden crow with two legs?"
"The most distinctive feature of the Golden Crow is its three legs. Can it still be considered a Golden Crow with only two legs?"
Lu Yang was also somewhat bewildered. Why was the "Golden Crow" that True Flame had automatically transformed into different from what he had expected?
He clenched his left hand, extinguishing the true flame, and then opened his hand again, revealing himself as a two-legged "golden crow".
Undeterred, he tried several times to grow another leg, but to no avail.
Lu Yang scratched his head. He was inexperienced and had never encountered this situation before. He turned to Bai Ming and asked, "Do you know what's going on here?"
Bai Ming had never seen anything like this before and was completely bewildered by the question, "Golden crows all have three legs, so yours has only two legs, so it must be a golden bird."
"So, does this count as the Golden Crow True Flame?"
Bai Ming's expression grew increasingly strange. "The Golden Bird True Flame."
