Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 297 Terrifying Temperature!

Without hesitation, Gu Yuan reached out and placed his hand on the furnace, activating the restrictions on it.

Almost the instant Gu Yuan activated the restriction, the lid of the furnace suddenly opened, and a suction force emanated from it.

This suction force was incredibly powerful, yet it seemed to be targeting only Gu Yuan himself.

His clothes fluttered and his hair was disheveled, but Ji Yuefei and Yan Xiaoling, who were not far away, seemed to be completely oblivious.

Gu Yuan initially wanted to circulate his true energy to resist, but then he changed his mind and did not resist. Instead, he let the furnace suck him in.

Gu Yuan's eyes lit up, and he felt as if he had fallen into a sea of ​​fire. Dark red flames were burning all around him, and the intense heat rushed in, as if to burn him to ashes.

Even though Gu Yuan was physically strong, he still felt the burning sensation, and the surrounding temperature was rapidly increasing, becoming hotter and hotter.

However, Gu Yuan had previously refined a Dragon Blood Fruit.

The Dragon Blood Fruit was a top-grade fire-attribute spiritual fruit that not only strengthened Gu Yuan's physique but also endowed him with the talent of a fire-elemental spiritual body.

At this moment, Gu Yuan's resistance to fire damage has significantly improved.

The heat and even the wisps of dark red true fire swirled around him, but they did nothing to harm Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan even felt a warm and cozy sensation.

Although he was practicing the Water Element Daoist Book, he did not feel any discomfort.

However, as the surrounding temperature rose higher and higher, it invaded from all directions, penetrating everywhere, and even his hair and clothes turned yellow and became twisted.

With the added threat of raging flames, Gu Yuan gradually began to feel overwhelmed.

Having the Fire Element Spirit Body talent does not mean you are immune to damage from true fire or fire-elemental magic spells; it only means you have relatively strong resistance to fire-elemental magic spells.

"Good heavens, are they treating me like a magic pill or a magical artifact to be refined?"

Gu Yuan quickly circulated his true energy and simultaneously unleashed his Devouring Heaven and Earth Divine Power.

A faint black light appeared on the surface of his body.

This layer of black light was very faint, yet it seemed to contain some kind of eerie power, capable of even swallowing light.

The surrounding flames flickered, reflecting off Gu Yuan's body. Originally a dark red, the black light on his body remained dim, reflecting no firelight at all.

It even devoured and digested the surrounding heat and fire.

Gu Yuan felt a chill run through his body, and his body temperature dropped significantly.

Furthermore, as the Devouring Heaven and Earth Divine Power began to devour and refine these true fires, Gu Yuan could even feel gentle streams of spiritual energy flowing into his body. After being transformed by the Devouring Heaven and Earth Divine Power, this spiritual energy had lost its explosiveness and become much gentler.

This spiritual energy flowed into his muscles, bones, and skin, slowly strengthening his physique.

"That's it? A furnace of magic treasure level shouldn't be so easy to obtain, right?"

Gu Yuan blinked, and just as a thought flashed through his mind, he saw the surrounding true fire actually gather together and transform into dark red scales, four claws and a single horn, with bared fangs and claws, intertwined like an inverted bowl, as if trying to trap him inside.

Suddenly, Gu Yuan felt immense pressure, as if the surrounding temperature was rapidly increasing, with the heat increasing more than tenfold!
Even the air itself distorted, with blazing white and dark red intertwined, resembling a legendary fiery hell. While the Heaven-Devouring Earth-Swallowing Divine Power was indeed wondrous, it also had its limits.

Soon, Gu Yuan felt waves of heat starting to invade him again. Even with the Heaven-Devouring and Earth-Eating Divine Power blocking it, some of the heat still began to invade his body.

To determine how hot the small space was, Gu Yuan took out a piece of iron ore. As soon as he threw the iron ore on the ground, the dark gray iron ore quickly turned red-hot and then melted into a pool of bright red molten iron.

"Good heavens... even the Iron Mother melted in three breaths..."

Gu Yuan's brows twitched as he looked around at the fire dragons formed from true fire with some apprehension.

Iron Mother and Refined Gold are rare and precious materials of the same level. Although they are not top-tier spiritual materials, they are still quite rare.

Normally, it is used by cultivators to refine magical artifacts, or even as an auxiliary material for magical treasures. I never expected that it would be melted so easily!
Gu Yuan was naturally quite alarmed!

There are nine fire dragons in total, intertwined with each other, forming a mysterious formation.

Gu Yuan pointed his finger, and with a sword cry, the Silver Dragon Sword transformed into a wisp of silver thread that flew out. Then, this thread quickly split into dozens of smaller threads.

Under Gu Yuan's urging, these sword threads exuded a fierce sword intent, so sharp that they seemed capable of cutting through everything, both tangible and intangible.

And indeed, as these sword threads flew out, they sliced ​​the fire dragons to pieces with a single sweep.

However, these fire dragons, which had been cut into pieces by the sword threads, quickly returned to normal with a flash of fire.

Gu Yuan frowned, reached out and retrieved the Silver Dragon Sword. The Silver Dragon Sword was as bright as new, but it also faintly glowed with a red light, obviously because the surrounding temperature was too high.

Clearly, even a top-grade magical flying sword like the Silver Dragon Sword would be fine for a short time, but over time, it would not be able to withstand the surrounding heat and true fire, and would be burned into a pool of molten iron.

However, Gu Yuan also noticed something strange: the fire dragons around him never launched any attacks on him, or rather, they merely formed a formation to trap him and spewed true fire, without doing anything else.

Gu Yuan thought for a moment, then raised his hand and unleashed a bolt of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning.

Boom! ! !
The purple-gold lightning, as thick as a thigh, was swift and domineering, blasting one of the fire dragons to pieces. Its light dimmed, but soon, the surrounding true fire gathered and reformed into a fire dragon, just like the one before.

"It seems I guessed right. The test of this furnace is not an attack on me, but a test of my endurance. It's using me as a magic weapon or elixir to refine. As long as I can withstand it, I can obtain this magic treasure."

Thinking of this, Gu Yuan lost his intention to continue attacking. Instead, he circulated the Taiyuan True Qi within his body to block all the heat from his body.

In this way, the heat that was already somewhat unbearable was once again kept out.

However, whether it's the Heaven-Devouring Earth Divine Power or the circulation of Primordial True Qi to resist heat and true fire, these actions consume a great deal of true Qi.

Gu Yuan's Taiyuan True Qi was also quite profound and powerful, but under this operation, it was consumed rapidly like flowing water.

In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, he had already consumed 30% of his true energy.

This made Gu Yuan frown.

His cultivation energy should theoretically be more than ten times stronger than that of other cultivators of the same level, but the rate at which it was being consumed was astonishingly fast. If it were any other cultivator, they would probably have already exhausted their energy and been burned to ashes by the true fire.
