Simultaneously traversing from Type-Moon

"You don't need to know. The Black Lotus of Annihilation! Unleash!"

Du Can casually tossed out a jet-black lotus, no bigger than the palm of his hand, which directly touched the Earth Demon Old Ghost. The Earth Demon Old Ghost tried to resist, but it was powerless to do so.

The Black Lotus of Annihilation passed directly through the barrier formed by his battle aura, drilled straight into his head, and then reappeared.

Then he fell straight down, without making a sound.

His soul had been taken by the Black Lotus of Annihilation, and was burned and refined within the Black Lotus by the power of endless strange fire, and finally devoured and absorbed by the power of darkness.

Du Can felt that his cultivation had improved slightly. Refining others' cultivation in this way was one option, but he didn't want to do it.

Du Can obtained the "Flame Manipulation Technique" from the memories of the Earth Demon Old Ghost, and later found the method for refining the Heavenly Demon Puppet in the Demon Flame Valley.

The Heavenly Demon Puppet is a valuable item. In the original novel, Xiao Yan relied on the power of the Heavenly Demon Puppet from the middle to the late stages of the story. Whether it was fighting or the lightning tribulations generated during alchemy, the Heavenly Demon Puppet would bear the brunt, proving to be incredibly resilient.

Du Can put away the refining method, and then ransacked the Demon Flame Valley, taking all the good stuff before leaving.

After leaving, he returned to the Monster Mountain Range.

"Let's give it a try and see if my idea will be approved."

Du Can recorded the "Flame Manipulation Technique," then returned directly to the light sphere space and began conducting various experiments.

After the experiment, he returned to reality.

"It seems to work. Let's do it that way."

Du Can acted on his ideas immediately.

There are two versions of the "Flame Manipulation Technique." One version is a transformed fire created by sacrificing one's own essence, energy, and spirit. The other version is a transformed fire formed by condensing various beast fires.

The first version is extremely damaging to one's vital energy and spirit; one might easily suffer from neurasthenia and die from exhaustion.

The second version, using the transformed fire formed from condensed beast fire, doesn't require depleting one's own essence, energy, or spirit. However, its drawback is its extreme difficulty, requiring a very high level of control over the flames. Otherwise, forcibly fusing the three special flames will fail and will instead result in self-destruction.

Chapter 195 Cultivation of Transformation Fire, Myriad Beast Spirit Fire!

Du Can felt that he could try both methods.

First, one must use one's own essence, energy, and spirit to nourish and generate fire.

Du Can directly ignited his own essence, energy, and spirit using a special method to cultivate a seed of transformation. He then continuously poured his own essence, energy, and spirit into it, making the seed of transformation stronger and gradually giving it spirituality, turning it into a pseudo-different fire that was close to a different fire.

After expending almost all of its essence, energy, and spirit, the power of the transformed fire had become extremely strong, even comparable to a true strange fire. It just lacked that special law of heaven and earth.

After all, he is now a Dou Zun. If he were a magical beast, he would be an eighth-order magical beast according to the classification of magical beasts. The beast fire produced by an eighth-order magical beast is already very powerful.

Moreover, the eighth-order beast fire is merely a wisp of fire from an eighth-order magical beast, not a flame condensed from almost all of its essence, energy, and spirit.

The transformed fire, condensed from all his essence, energy, and spirit, is far stronger than an eighth-order beast fire.

Du Can looked at the artificial strange fire in his hand and showed a satisfied expression.

Afterwards, he first returned to the light sphere space to recover all his energy and spirit, and then began to devour and refine the transformed fire.

Because the flames were generated from his own essence, energy, and spirit, he refined them very easily, and they were completely refined in an instant.

His Burning Technique level did not increase.

But his cultivation level has improved.

He was promoted from a one-star Dou Zun to a two-star Dou Zun.

"Awesome! It feels like it can be upgraded further."

Du Can is currently unable to refine the Three Treasures Origin Pill, but he can continue to increase his level by absorbing flames.

No one else could come up with such a method. After all, no one else could instantly recover after exhausting their energy and spirit.

"Let's try another method."

Du Can wanted to refine the difference between the transformed fire condensed from beast fire and this transformed fire condensed from one's own essence, energy, and spirit.

So he immediately began a massive search in the Monster Mountain Range.

In the Monster Mountain Range, it's not easy to find seventh and eighth-tier monsters, but there are quite a few fifth and sixth-tier monsters.

Du Can casually captured some magical beasts and extracted beast fire from their bodies.

Then, during the search, they made an unexpected discovery.

"Myriad Beast Spirit Fire!"

Du Can blinked as he looked at the blood-red flame in front of him. He never expected to be so lucky. He had just wandered around the road for a bit and actually found a strange fire.

The Myriad Beasts Spirit Fire is the twenty-second ranked Strange Fire on the Strange Fire Ranking. It was born from the souls and blood of countless beasts, using countless kinds of beast fire as a catalyst, and condensing the essence of billions of magical beasts to finally give birth to this strange fire that combines the blood, fire, and soul of countless magical beasts.

In a way, this is quite similar to the second version of the "Transformation into Fire" technique.

Countless beastly flames coalesced, transforming into the final spark. The path of the Great Dao, though different, leads to the same destination.

Du Can looked at the place where the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire was born. This was the burial ground of countless demonic beasts. The remains of a large number of demonic beasts were scattered, layer upon layer, forming a small sea of ​​bones.

No one knows what kind of horrific massacre happened here, or what special factors killed a large number of magical beasts, or whether this place was originally the agreed-upon burial ground for countless magical beasts.

Anyway, right here, amidst the remains of countless magical beasts, that blood-red strange fire was born.

Within the strange fire, there are countless phantom images of magical beasts, as well as their spirituality and bloodline power.

Around the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, due to the powerful spiritual influence, the corpses of some demonic beasts actually "resurrected" again, forming flesh and blood puppets similar to the Heavenly Demon Puppet, spontaneously protecting the safety of the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire and preventing it from being taken away by others.

Du Can used his mental power to sense the flesh and blood puppets and found that their strengths varied. The furthest ones were only equivalent to first or second-tier magical beasts, while those closer had the strength of third or fourth-tier magical beasts, and those near the source of the strange fire had the strength of fifth or sixth-tier magical beasts.

The flesh and blood puppet that was closest to the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire and even the one that firmly protected it actually possessed the strength equivalent to a peak seventh-tier magical beast.

This is already comparable to the peak of the Dou Zong level.

This is a bit outrageous. This Myriad Beast Spirit Fire has probably been nurtured for a long time and is quite powerful, far exceeding its limited ranking. That's why it can create such a powerful fighter.

Although there is a fixed ranking on the Strange Flame Ranking, the strength of the Strange Flame itself is not fixed. The Myriad Beast Spirit Flame in front of us feels much stronger than the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, and even stronger than the Sea Heart Flame.

Du Can looked at the flesh and blood puppet. It resembled a divine bird and seemed noble. It felt somewhat like the legendary Heavenly Phoenix.

"Unfortunately, the essence of the monster's corpse has been completely absorbed by the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, leaving only a skeleton. The loss of value is too great."

Du Can shook his head. If the corpse of a seventh-tier magical beast, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, were still intact, its value would be extremely high. However, this would also easily attract the pursuit of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.

With a wave of his hand, Du Can unleashed the World-Destroying Black Lotus.

The black lotus, which was originally only the size of a palm, instantly became enormous, covering the entire burial ground.

The Black Lotus of Annihilation began to emit endless black energy. The black devouring energy it emitted completely devoured the spirituality bestowed upon these flesh puppets by the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, turning them back into ordinary skeletons.

Upon seeing this, the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire transformed into a lifelike Heavenly Phoenix and flew away.

With its powerful strength and high intelligence, it naturally sought advantage and avoided harm. Knowing that it might not be able to defeat Du Can, it simply fled.

But how could Du Can let it escape?

The enormous black lotus of destruction rapidly tightened its layers of petals, trapping it directly within its stamen.

"return!"

With a wave of his hand, Du Can summoned the World-Destroying Black Lotus back into a palm-sized, jet-black lotus, which landed in his palm.

The Myriad Beast Spirit Fire was like a bird trapped in a cage, unable to fly out no matter how hard it tried.

"Finding a new strange fire unexpectedly is not bad."

Du Can instantly refined the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire. The powerful battle qi generated after refining the strange fire using the Burning Technique allowed him to advance his realm by a small step.

"Alright, let's continue to verify the power of the second type of fire."

Du Can pulled out six or seven kinds of beast fire in succession, all of which were beast fire from fifth or sixth-order magical beasts, which he had just painstakingly gathered.

This also includes a piece of the Amethyst Winged Lion King's Beast Fire Seed.

He easily beat up the amethyst winged lion king and obtained the fire seed.

"I didn't encounter Yun Yun, the sect leader of Yunlan Sect, so I couldn't play the hero and save the beauty."

Du Can thought to himself, but actually didn't care.

Following the second method of condensing the flame, he used beast fire as a catalyst and, under the control of powerful spiritual energy, cultivated the flame using the essence of several different flames.

The spirituality of this transformed fire wasn't as high as the one he had cultivated with his own essence, energy, and spirit before. Moreover, in terms of power, probably because he was using fifth- or sixth-tier beast fire, its power wasn't strong either, probably only at the level of a seventh-tier beast fire.

"It'll have to do."

Du Can swallowed the weak flame of transformation in one gulp and refined it instantly.

After refining the Transformation Flame using the Burning Technique, his cultivation level remained almost unchanged.

"It seems that using beast fire won't work. I'll have to condense my own essence, energy, and spirit to create fire and see how many levels I can advance..."

Chapter 196: Successful Nine Revolutions, Attacking the Soul Palace

Du Can repeatedly nurtured the flame with his own essence, energy, and spirit, and then absorbed the flame to break through his cultivation realm.

Under the refinement of the Burning Technique, his cultivation level rose steadily. Three-star Dou Zun... four-star Dou Zun... five-star Dou Zun... rising all the way to the peak of nine-star Dou Zun.

"I'm enjoying the thrill of rapid leveling up again."

Du Can sensed his current aura, which was as deep and boundless as the sea. Although his realm had improved rapidly, it was very stable, without any sense of instability.

Upgrading comes at no cost, or rather, the cost of upgrading has been completely offset.

After reaching the peak of the Nine-Star Dou Zun realm, Du Can once again felt the barrier of his cultivation level. The next realm was called the Nine-Turn Dou Zun realm, which required compressing and condensing his Dou Qi nine times.

The Nine Revolutions to Sainthood is the condensation and compression of battle qi nine times.

When one reaches the peak of the Dou Zun realm, and their Dou Qi is full and cannot be increased further, all Dou Qi must be condensed and compressed. Finally, an empty area that can accommodate newly generated Dou Qi will appear in the body while the Dou Qi is still full. When the Dou Qi is full again, condensation will continue. After repeating this process nine times, one will reach the Great Perfection.

This is very difficult; the amount of battle qi consumed is enormous, and the compression and condensation also take a lot of time. This is why many Dou Zun are unable to achieve the Nine Revolutions Sainthood in their lifetime.

"However, I can find another way to quickly skip this accumulation phase."

Du Can then condensed his own essence, energy, and spirit into a flame, and restored himself through the light sphere space. His state was at its peak, with his battle qi filling his entire body. At this moment, he was absorbing the flame condensed from his own essence, energy, and spirit, forcibly compressing his battle qi, and his battle qi achieved the first transformation.

This method is indeed feasible.

He repeated the process, continuing to condense and generate fire.

At this moment, the power of the transformed fire condensed from his essence, energy, and spirit had become immense. In terms of momentum, it had surpassed those lower-ranked strange fires, and in terms of destructive power alone, it had reached the level of the top ten strange fires.
