Refining the Heavenly Flame
Xiao Yu quickly arrived at the cave in the desert. After walking through a long passage, a world of lava appeared before Xiao Yu eyes.
Fiery red magma flowed slowly at the bottom of the cave, emanating a scorching heat. Watching the huge bubbles constantly rising and bursting, Xiao Yu was somewhat shocked.
The scorching heat left Xiao Yu drenched in sweat. The Fire Attribute energy here was extremely violent, but it was still bearable for Xiao Yu. After all, he was someone who controlled Heavenly Flames, so he could tolerate this level of temperature.
However, the only troublesome thing is that Xiao Yu knows that there is a Fourth-Order Magical Beast, the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake, hidden under this magma. It is similar to a human Dou Ling expert. Moreover, they are currently in this environment full of magma, which is the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's home ground.
Although Xiao Yu is currently Three Star Da Dou Shi, in terms of overall strength, he is invincible among those of the same level. This is thanks to the fact that his cultivation technique allows him to cultivate other attributes simultaneously. If he could cultivate more attributes now, he would probably be able to compete with this guy!
"If you can't beat me, you can practice first. Once I've beaten you into submission, I'll have Qing Lin come and take you down!" Xiao Yu chuckled strangely as he looked at the lava in front of him.
With a flap of his wings, Xiao Yu flew directly to within ten meters of the lava. Looking at the churning lava below, Xiao Yu took out the Black Scale sword and slashed out, the powerful sword energy slashing towards the lava below.
Boom!
With a deafening roar, the flowing magma below was instantly cleaved by the sword energy, forming a fissure like a cliff. Countless magma burst forth from it, flying in all directions. Bone Spirit Cold Flame enveloped Xiao Yu's body, and the magma was instantly vaporized into Nihility Heavenly Flames contact with Xiao Yu's body!
The massive crack below was slowly merging, gradually returning to calm, which made Xiao Yu frown. "That shouldn't be the case, why is there no movement?"
Just as Xiao Yu was about to unleash another sword strike, a muffled boom resounded from the calm lava lake below, and countless streams of lava burst forth in an instant, much larger than the commotion Xiao Yu had just caused.
Amidst the swirling lava, a massive, fiery red, two-headed serpent burst forth from the lava, letting out a sharp hiss. It lunged at Xiao Yu with lightning speed, its frenzied Fire Spirit Snake churning the tranquil lava lake and sending countless streams of lava scattering in all directions.
Xiao Yu was enveloped in Bone Spirit Cold Flame. When he saw the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake tearing at him, he remained suspended in mid-air without moving an inch, as if he was terrified!
Just before it was about to bite Xiao Yu, the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake suddenly stopped, standing upright and looking at Xiao Yu with some fear. It was the intimidation caused by the Heavenly Flames on Xiao Yu's body!
Xiao Yu smiled faintly and said, "You little thing, you seem to know the power of this Heavenly Flames. Even a Seventh-Tier Demonic Beast like the Seven-Colored Heavenly Python is afraid of this Bone Spirit Cold Flame. How could it not be able to subdue a Fourth-Order Magical Beast like you?"
"However, it wasn't my intention to bully you like this. I just broke through, so I'll use you as practice!" With that, Xiao Yu directly withdrew the Bone Spirit Cold Flame from his body.
Although the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake couldn't understand what Xiao Yu was saying, it let out an excited hiss when it saw the flames on Xiao Yu's body disappear!
The Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake opened its ferocious maw, and its scarlet tongue shot out like a sharp sword towards Xiao Yu!
"Good timing!" Xiao Yu chuckled and then moved slightly, transforming into a streak of light as he charged towards the Fire Spirit Snake Serpent.
Bang!
The Black Scale and the Fire Spirit Snake snake's tongues collided in mid-air, producing a loud sound. Xiao Yu's hand also went slightly numb, and he cursed, "This guy is indeed comparable to Dou Ling expert. I'll beat you to a pulp!"
Xiao Yu took a slight step back from the recoil, his internal Dou Qi surging wildly. A thin layer of light red Dou Qi covered the blade of his Ink Scale Sword. With a swift movement, he charged towards the Fire Spirit Snake once more.
The Fire Spirit Snake's massive head swayed slightly, thoroughly enraged by the previous attack. Its enormous diamond-shaped eyes were filled with fury, and its two forked heads lunged at Xiao Yu.
Boom! Boom boom!
The two figures clashed repeatedly above the lava. Xiao Yu's sword left white marks on the Fire Spirit Snake's jade-like scales. This creature's defense was astonishing; even Xiao Yu's full-force attack could only leave a mark on it. However, each strike of the sword caused the Fire Spirit Snake considerable pain.
The Fire Spirit Snake's enormous tail lashed out fiercely at Xiao Yu Xiao Yu, carrying scorching magma as it hurtled towards him. Xiao Yu dodged the attack with his Fire Spirit Snake. Seeing that it couldn't hit Xiao Yu, the Fire Spirit Snake's two huge eyes were filled with a ferocious and bloodthirsty killing intent.
The Fire Spirit Snake that were chasing Xiao Yu stopped abruptly. Xiao Yu saw their necks throbbing, and then he saw two ferocious mouths spew out two huge columns of magma and flames, shooting towards Xiao Yu like a volcanic eruption.
Two crimson flame lines emanated an aura of destruction. He couldn't withstand this attack and could only summon the Bone Spirit Cold Flame to protect himself. He suddenly jerked his body and threw a punch at one of the flame pillars, smashing it directly into it. He then darted away and disappeared from the attack's range.
The pillars of fire immediately lost their target. One shot directly into the magma, while another was hit by Xiao Yu's punch, deviating from its course and piercing into the surrounding wall. With a loud bang, the hard wall was instantly burned into a large, black hole!
The Fire Spirit Snake Serpent's enormous eyes were fixed on Xiao Yu, its extreme killing intent undisguised, but it was also afraid of the Heavenly Flames on Xiao Yu's body and dared not step forward.
Xiao Yu, panting heavily, looked at the huge creature. If it weren't for the Heavenly Flames he possessed, he really wouldn't be a match for this Fire Spirit Snake spirit serpent. After absorbing the Heavenly Flames, his strength would increase significantly, and then he could beat this Fire Spirit Snake to a pulp!
"I'm not playing with you anymore, I need to refine the Heavenly Flames!" Xiao Yu found a protruding stone pillar in the lava lake and sat down. With a wave of his hand, a light screen composed of Heavenly Flames enveloped Xiao Yu!
Seeing Xiao Yu sit down directly there, the Fire Spirit Snake was extremely angry but helpless. Its huge body began to slowly circle around the stone pillar, waiting for Xiao Yu to come out before it could say anything!
Xiao Yu took out the Green Lotus Core Flame from his Storage Ring, placed it in front of him, and then formed a strange hand seal with both hands to begin refining the Green Lotus Core Flame.
It was a long process; it took Xiao Yu seven whole days to completely refine the Green Lotus Core Flame into Heavenly Flames under his control.
Xiao Yu closed his eyes and felt the Green Lotus Heart Flame and the Bone Spirit Cold Flame clearly confronting each other within his body. He found it quite interesting. He flicked his finger, and a small wisp of Green Flame burst forth from his palm. The dark azure flame looked very docile.
During these seven days, Xiao Yu wasn't constantly refining the Green Lotus Core Flame. He would set aside some time each day to have a match with the Fire Spirit Snake, strengthening his Dou Technique. When he couldn't win, he would use his Heavenly Flames to threaten it, which made the Fire Spirit Snake increasingly ferocious.
