Tempering the Flame God
After leaving the small valley where various medicinal herbs had been replanted, Xiao Yan flew straight towards the Tagor Desert.
Not long after, with Xiao Yan's strength, he appeared in the underground Magma World of the Tagor Desert.
The fiery red magma gurgled and bubbled from time to time. When the red bubbles reached their limit, they burst with a loud bang, and thick Fire Poison heat shot out.
Such a harsh environment would be impossible for most people to endure.
Xiao Yan's figure flashed, and he immediately appeared in a strange blue world within the blazing red magma.
Taking a few steps forward, Xiao Yan looked at the Green Lotus Core Flame still on the Green Lotus Seat and thought to himself, "Since this flame is still here, Queen Medusa hasn't found this place yet, which saves me some effort."
Xiao Yan flicked his finger, and a ball of emerald-green liquid shot out, rapidly traveling upwards along the strange vine that was growing the Green Lotus Core Flame.
A moment later, the Green Lotus Core Flame, along with its vines, was enveloped in the Life Spirit Flame.
"I wonder how fast the growth rate of the Medicine Spirit Sacred Body combined with the Life Spirit Flame will be?"
Looking at the Green Lotus Core Flame, which was filled with a strange green light, Xiao Yan felt genuinely curious.
After observing for a moment, Xiao Yan took out his Ten-Thousand-Year Green Lotus Seat, sat cross-legged on it, cleared his mind of distractions, and began his cultivation as the Flame God.
However, Xiao Yan did not cultivate in a conventional manner, nor did he take the easiest path of fusing all the Heavenly Flames to cultivate the Flame God. Instead, he used the Green Lotus Core Flame as the first flame to cultivate the Flame God.
Xiao Yan possessed many of the Green Lotus Core Flame Heavenly Flames within his body, but he had previously consumed them indiscriminately without focusing on purifying and strengthening them.
Xiao Yan took out the jade bottle containing the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Pearl from his Storage Ring, opened the bottle, and swallowed the glittering silver Heavenly Thunder Spirit Pearl in one gulp.
In an instant, the compressed and purified lightning burst forth from the tiny Heavenly Thunder Spirit Pearl, appearing in Xiao Yan's limbs and bones almost in the blink of an eye.
This kind of impact is no less powerful than the raging flames of some Heavenly Flames. If an ordinary Dou Zun were to suffer from it, although it wouldn't be fatal, it would definitely not be pleasant.
After all, compared to the powerful and surging Heavenly Flames, the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Pearl Pearl's power lasts for a much shorter period of time.
Xiao Yan possessed extremely strong physical attributes and had reached the Nine-Turn Dou Zhuan, so a little lightning was nothing to him.
After the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Pearl released a massive amount of lightning, Xiao Yan immediately used the Heavenly Flames he had fused with to force the lightning from his limbs and bones into his Naling Space.
This Naling Space contains all the Heavenly Flames that Xiao Yan has fused with, and its temperature is extremely high, causing the terrifying lightning to immediately subside.
After dispersing his Heavenly Flames, Xiao Yan focused most of his attention on the Green Lotus Core Flame, which shone with the brightest azure light.
A flash of azure light, and the Green Lotus Core Flame trembled violently, multiplying from one to two, from two to four, from four to eight...
A short while later, many very similar-looking Green Lotus Core Flame appeared in the Naling Space.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yan first controlled the two Green Lotus Core Flame, and then made them merge back into one.
However, this time it wasn't simply about using the strengths of the Flame Mantra to fuse the two Heavenly Flames into one; after the fusion was successful, the Flame God's cultivation method was also employed.
As Xiao Yan formed hand seals, a large amount of Dou Qi surged violently, surging into the Naling like a rolling tide, rushing into the newly fused Green Lotus Core Flame.
The massive amount of Dou Qi acted like a forging hammer, clanging and hammering as it forged this Green Lotus Core Flame.
Under the impact of massive amounts of Dou Qi, the azure light of the Green Lotus Core Flame flickered incessantly, and a faint white dot appeared on the lotus petals.
Xiao Yan knew that this was the beginning of Flame God's cultivation. Only by extending the white dot into lines and finally transforming it into strange Sigil could he approach the pinnacle of his cultivation.
However, the Green Lotus Core Flame is quite large, and it would take more than three to five days to cover it with Sigil.
Xiao Yan manipulated his Dou Qi, infusing it with the lightning within his Naling, and used the power of lightning, which was far stronger than Dou Qi, to forge the Green Lotus Core Flame.
Under the impact of the silver lightning, the light of the Green Lotus Core Flame flickered even more intensely, but the white dot also extended at a visible speed.
After a while, the Green Lotus Core Flame that Xiao Yan had been diligently refining stabilized.
This new Green Lotus Core Flame is no longer easily divided in two, but its lifespan has increased from two thousand years to two thousand years. Compared to the previous crude superposition, it can exert greater power.
In addition, a strange Sigil appeared on the lotus petals, making it stand out from other Green Lotus Core Flame.
Overjoyed at the initial success in his cultivation, Xiao Yan manipulated the Green Lotus Core Flame, continuing to fuse it with other Green Lotus Core Flame.
With the assistance of the lightning released by the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Pearl, and perhaps due to the newly acquired Life Spirit Flame, Xiao Yan's alchemy skills had improved, making the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Pearl he refined much more effective, resulting in a faster fusion speed than Xiao Yan had anticipated.
The Green Lotus Core Flame merged into one, and the final Green Lotus Core Flame grew larger, resembling a millstone. The number of lotus petals increased accordingly, and each petal bore a strange Sigil.
At this moment, the Green Lotus Core Flame, which is tens of thousands of years old, is no longer the flame that was ranked nineteenth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking of the Dou Qi Continent.
Although its power cannot compare to the top three Heavenly Flames on the Heavenly Flame Ranking, it is more than enough to rank in the upper ten.
At the heart of the Green Lotus Core Flame, a strange flower bud appeared, surrounded by astonishing spiritual energy.
Xiao Yan knew that Flame God had reached a critical moment in his cultivation, and he focused intently on forming hand seals to guide the energy of the Green Lotus Core Flame to converge.
Streaks of blue light moved within the flower bud, and with each circle, the bud increased in size.
After an unknown amount of time, the flower bud slowly rotated and gradually opened, revealing its inner space.
Contrary to the description given by the Flame God, Xiao Yan's cultivation of the Flame God using the Green Lotus Core Flame only resulted in the creation of a small entity, not the majestic and extraordinary Flame Emperor.
The little thing was no bigger than the palm of your hand, but it looked very much like a human, with its arms wrapped around its knees in a curled-up position.
The reason it is said to be very similar is because it has two pairs of thin, cicada-wing-like blue wings on its back. These are not formed by the condensation of energy like Dou Qi Wings, but rather they grow naturally on their own.
A while after the flower bud opened, the little creature's wings began to flutter slowly.
