Douluo: Law of Heaven and Earth

Chapter 726 Red Lotus Fire
"In simple terms, even if I have great strength, I am just following the crowd?"

Ji Dong seemed to understand.

“Isn’t it just following the crowd?”

Zhou Qing smiled. "If you don't study the fundamentals of cultivation, you will be a little stronger than ordinary cultivators. As long as you are not so arrogant, you can enjoy a good life. But if you only distinguish cultivators from ordinary people based on their strength, I can't see where the cultivators' sense of superiority over ordinary people is. Instead, they are like beasts following their instincts."

To put it more bluntly, Zhou Qing dared to use Lieyan as an example. Before she realized what kind of mission she had for the planet that gave birth to her, and took the initiative to assume it and take practical action, she was just an intelligent beast, even worse than an ordinary beast.

At least ordinary beasts play an indispensable role in maintaining the ecosystem of the entire planet, and the flames -

For now, it's just a waste of time.

“I hate studying!”

Although Ji Dong also missed the study time in his previous life, he definitely did not miss the word "study".

But there is a fact before him right now, that is, if he does not study, he will not be able to participate in the great cause of changing the world, he will not be able to have the corresponding experience, he will not be able to accumulate such emotions, he will not be able to brew the best wine in the world, and he will not be able to create wine that surpasses the best wine.

So, Ji Dong could only grit his teeth and say, "But I tried my best!"

"This is a good ox or horse... Oh no, this is a good man who grew up under the red flag." Zhou Qing looked like a teachable boy.

"I heard you saying I was a beast of burden. Is that true or not?" Ji Dong said with resentment on his face.

"Ahem." Zhou Qing argued, oh no, explained, "Have you heard of Master Lu's wise words about being willing to serve others as a servant?"

Ji Dong raised the corner of his mouth and joked, "The Master Lu on the computer screen?"

Zhou Qing said without hesitation: "It seems that your computer must have 360 ​​Security Guard installed."

Ji Dong: “…”

Lieyan was speechless and couldn't help asking, "What Master Lu? Security guard? What are you talking about?"

"Let Ji Dong tell you about the earth later." Zhou Qing picked up the half soul guide core crystal again, injected soul power into it, attracted the surrounding fire attribute energy, and converted it into corresponding pure energy. With the crystal as the center, a soul guide core magic circle spread out.

"correct."

Watching his body begin to dissipate, Zhou Qing finally reminded Lieyan, "Perhaps you may not have noticed that your true body is not the magma lake in the center of the earth or the red lotus of the earth fire, but the stubborn stone connecting the two. That is your real heart, but it has not yet beat."

"Then how do I make it beat?" Lieyan thought about it carefully, and sensed it carefully. He found that the stubborn stone that existed in the magma lake at the center of the earth and grew the red lotus of earth fire seemed to have a connection with himself compared to usual. It was as if it started from the fact that there was an extra energy heart in the chest cavity of his energy body.

"It is enough to shoulder the responsibility as the Queen of the Earth's Core." As soon as Zhou Qing finished speaking, he disappeared, leaving only the half of the soul guide core crystal.

Lieyan picked it up and was thinking about the meaning of Zhou Qing's words when he heard Ji Dong exclaim, "It's so hot!"

The reason why he was able to remain safe in this inner world was because Zhou Qing had given him a layer of protection. Now that he was gone, this layer of protection naturally disappeared.

How can an ordinary person withstand the high temperature here?

The flames had no choice but to attach a faint red halo around his body to help him resist the scorching heat here.

"Thank you."

After being isolated from the high temperature, Ji Dong heaved a sigh of relief and thanked Lie Yan, "Well, what shall we do next?" "Of course I will command all intelligent races in the eighteen layers of the earth's core, perceive the environment and structure of each layer, and arrange them in the corresponding environment according to their racial talents, so as to make my home, your world, a better place. This is my duty... Although I have never fulfilled this responsibility since I was born."

Lieyan, who had already found his life goal, naturally wanted to take up his post as soon as possible. "As for you... just practice hard for now. I will leave a mark on you."

Snapped!
She patted Ji Dong's chest, and a red lotus mark suddenly appeared.

"This is?"

"With it, you can travel back and forth between the outside world and here. Before he comes back next time, I can help you by letting you practice here. The rich fire element can make up for your practice speed, which is thirty-two times slower than that of ordinary people. It can even help you practice faster."

Lieyan said calmly, "I don't really understand the cultivation methods of humans."

"Thank you." Ji Dong was overjoyed. He had thought that the double fire attributes of Bing and Ding would prevent him from practicing quickly, but he did not expect that by some strange coincidence, he would have such an opportunity. He could even get guidance from Zhou Qing in the future... He was just like the protagonist in a storybook.

"It's not free. Every time you come, you have to prepare a glass of good wine for me, but don't incorporate that kind of sad emotion. I don't like it very much." Lieyan also stated his conditions.

"no problem!"

Ji Dong agreed immediately.

For a bartender, constantly challenging one's own limits is also an essential quality. If one blindly immerses himself in the glory of the past, he will only stagnate.

"Then I'll look forward to it."

Lieyan smiled slightly and snapped his fingers. A ball of fire emerged from Ji Dong's chest, and he disappeared in the eighteenth layer of the earth's core.

"Another world?"

Lieyan stroked the half soul guide core crystal in his hand and found that with his knowledge, he did not understand how this thing was made. He could not help but sigh, "Humans are really a great race. Although they have a cunning and sinister side, they also have a kind side, and--"

Recalling that the Bingwu Yuanyang Holy Fire and the Dingsi Mingyin Spirit Fire merged in Zhou Qing's hands and gathered into a ball of white flame that was neither light nor darkness, Lieyan understood Zhou Qing's idea a little. That is, although people's hearts are divided into good and evil, he is willing to believe in the kindness of human hearts and, through some means, make people's hearts move towards goodness, righteousness and goodness.

"Really? I was actually taught a lesson by a young boy!"

Returning to the Red Lotus of Earth Fire, Lie Yan actively made the Red Lotus of Earth Fire and the Earth's core magma lake move at a familiar frequency based on the fluctuations caused by Zhou Qing's previous cultivation on it. The Bingwu Yuanyang Holy Fire and Dingsi Mingyin Spirit Fire, which she controlled, also moved along with it and flowed on the stubborn stone.

[Stubborn Stone, this is indeed my true self! ]

In the same way that Zhou Qing displayed the Infinite Fire, Lieyan also controlled the two balls of natal flames to continuously rotate and gather in the stubborn stone. Finally, a ball of red flame that seemed to be able to destroy everything rose up.

"This is--"

Lieyan had a premonition that even a god would not be able to withstand this fire. Once contaminated by it, unless that part of the divine body and soul was cut off, it would be burned to ashes.

However, the effect of this flame on mortals is similar to that of Zhou Qing's Infinite Fire, but it can only cleanse the soul, and its effect on the body does not seem to be that great.

"Is it because I have no body and am of the fire attribute?"

"Then, this fire is called——"

"Red Lotus Karmic Fire!"
