"Teacher, this is..."
Xiao Yan asked urgently in his mind.
Although Yao Chen had once told him about the appearances and properties of various heavenly flames, apart from the green lotus core flame he had yet to absorb, he had never seen any other kind. As such, he could not recognize what this was.
Yao Chen's spectral soul drifted out of the Bone Flame Ring, his aged face filled with gravity and confusion.
The feeling that flame originally gave him-that hint of vitality within destruction-closely resembled the properties of the three thousand burning flame he remembered...
But aside from the three thousand burning flame sealed by the Pill Tower, he had never seen a second one.
Although only the top three heavenly flames were unique, and a second or even third instance of any other heavenly flame could be born.
Yet after examining it carefully, Yao Chen was certain that neither its appearance nor its aura was anything the three thousand burning flame could match!
Stranger still, the flame's aura seemed to lack the quality of heavenly flames, nurtured by heaven and earth and given form through gathered spiritual energy. Instead, it seemed more like an incomparably powerful beast flame...?
But as far as Yao Chen knew, no beast flame could reach this level of power.
It seemed to hold its own against the vast majority of heavenly flames. At the very least... it was of a higher order than his own bone spirit cold flame!
Yao Chen was certain that even the flames nurtured by a supreme magical beast race like the Heavenly Demon Phoenix might fall far short of this fire.
The flame seemed extraordinarily sentient. As it gently churned, it sometimes condensed into a purple-black bird, sometimes transformed into a gigantic bird that blotted out the sky.
