Battle Through the Heavens: I can solidify the talents of all things

The strange fire fluctuations, which resembled the "heartbeat of the earth," showed a slight, extremely subtle disorder at this moment.

The fiery red figure guarding the outermost edge of this area—the two-headed fire spirit snake—reacted even more violently!

"Roar—!!"

Its two ferocious heads suddenly rose from the lava, and its long body, covered with crimson scales, tensed up in alertness, coiled on the surface of the lava lake near the passage.

Four cold, vertical pupils stared intently at the deep passage that had been forcibly breached and was now constantly being filled with fresh air and unfamiliar scents, filled with rage at the invasion of their territory and a hint of... barely perceptible fear!

As a fourth-tier magical beast, it has an extremely keen sense of energy.

The energy fluctuations that came from the direction of the passage just now were so high in level and so destructive that even it felt a strong threat from the depths of its bloodline!

Underground world——

"We need to sense it carefully; the primordial fluctuations of the strange fire should be hidden beneath this sea of ​​lava."

Just as Xiao Qing was concentrating on sensing, the lava lake below suddenly exploded!

"Roar—!"

With a violent screech, the familiar fiery red figure broke through the magma and soared into the sky!

It was the two-headed fire spirit snake we had sensed earlier!

At this close distance, its ferocity is even more palpable.

Two heads with four vertical pupils were locked on Xiao Qing, filled with the rage of having their territory invaded.

Its enormous body was made entirely of scorching magma and hard, crimson scales, distorting the air wherever it passed.

One of its heads suddenly opened its huge mouth, and a highly compressed crimson flame ray shot towards Xiao Qing like lightning!

The other head spewed out a large rain of lava fire, blocking all his space to dodge.

Before the attack even arrived, the scorching heat wave had already caused ripples to appear on Xiao Qing's protective battle aura.

Faced with this combined attack, which was enough to instantly injure even an ordinary Dou Ling, Xiao Qing did not panic, but instead raised his right hand.

He didn't use any fighting techniques; he simply moved his mind, and a wisp of crimson-gold flame began to appear at his fingertips.

This flame may seem weak, but it contains an aura of law that transcends ordinary fire!

Xiao Qing flicked his finger, and a pale golden flame flew out swiftly, heading towards the raging fire rays and lava rain.

A bizarre scene unfolded!

The fierce beams of fire, upon contact with the pale golden flames, were like subjects meeting their king!

It suddenly trembled violently, and then vanished in mid-air!

The rain of lava fire, like ice and snow meeting the sun, dissipated on its own before it even got close, reverting to pure fire energy, which was quietly absorbed by the wisp of pale golden flame.

"Waaah—"

The two heads of the two-headed fire serpent simultaneously emitted cries filled with fear and confusion.

As a fire-type magical beast, its perception of fire far surpasses that of humans.

In its simple consciousness, the fiery aura emanating from the human before it was of such a high level that it felt tremble and submit from the depths of its bloodline!

That's absolute dominance in terms of status!

Its massive body shrank back in fear, hovering over the lava lake. Its four vertical pupils stared at Xiao Qing in shock, no longer daring to launch an attack.

Seeing that the two-headed fire spirit snake's attack had been extinguished, Xiao Qing ignored it.

His gaze passed over the fire serpent and landed in the depths of the lava lake.

Through the activation of the Fire Law just now, he clearly sensed the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, which was located at the very center of that crimson ocean.

An incomparably pure source of fire, like the heartbeat of the earth, is resonating strongly with the "Burning Technique" and the Law of Fire within his body!

"Found it."

Xiao Qing glanced at the two-headed fire spirit snake that was terrified and cowering by the lava, pretending to be dead, and then ignored it.

With a slight shift of his thoughts, his battle qi surged within him, and golden-red flames burst forth with a "whoosh," condensing into a radiant protective shield around him, completely isolating him from the scorching heat and fire poison.

Although he possesses the Law of Fire, the high temperature of the molten lava is probably similar to soaking in a hot spring for him.

But actually standing in front of such a boundless sea of ​​lava is still a bit unsettling.

It's like standing on the edge of a bottomless abyss, the silence carrying a chilling sense of oppression that sends shivers down your spine.

He took a deep breath, composed himself, and the hesitation in his eyes vanished in an instant, replaced by a resolute look.

Without further thought, he leaped forward, transforming into a dazzling golden streak of light, swooping down like a sharp sword!

puff

With a muffled thud, it plunged straight into that sticky, scalding crimson liquid.

Upon entering the lava, the expected burning sensation did not occur.

The golden-red protective shield steadily enveloped him. The terrifyingly high temperature outside, capable of vaporizing steel, only brought a lukewarm warmth to his body. His movements were completely unimpeded, as smooth as if he were back home.

This is the domineering nature of the innate Fire Law—almost absolute control over all fires in the world.

He no longer paid attention to the chilling sight around him; his soul perception, like an invisible net, locked onto the ancient and powerful flame fluctuations ahead.

Like a fish swimming, he broke through the viscous lava and accelerated his descent in the direction he sensed.

Beneath the lava was not complete darkness; a hazy, dark red glow permeated the air, as if forever shrouded in a blood-red twilight.

I don't know how long I stayed submerged, but at the edge of my senses, a unique cyan color suddenly pierced through this crimson.

The blue color was initially very pale, like a lamp emitting faint light in the dark night.

But as he drew closer, the light spot rapidly enlarged and brightened, its pure blue hue possessing an eerie quality and an overwhelming spirituality.

Wherever it goes, even the raging lava energy becomes subdued, like a king surrounded by his subjects.

Finally, after breaking through an exceptionally viscous magma membrane, the view suddenly opened up!

A huge spherical space was forcibly opened up in the depths of the lava ocean by an invisible force field.

It was exceptionally clean inside, without a single drop of lava intruding, a stark contrast to the crimson, raging world outside.

At the center of the space, the source of the light was not just a ball of fire.

"It really is the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame!"

An overwhelming sense of amazement welled up in the old doctor's mind.

"It still retains almost its original, intact form... How rare, how incredibly rare!"

This was the second time he had encountered a different kind of fire, and it was a different kind of fire that was being nurtured and had already grown into its complete form!

Xiao Qing hovered at the edge of this isolated void, his gaze fixed on the center in shock.

There, a blue lotus platform, about ten feet in diameter, floated quietly, its entire body carved from blue jade, perfectly formed by nature.

The lotus leaves are crystal clear, with mysterious patterns flowing naturally on them, emitting a cool and gentle aura, which cleverly neutralizes some of the destructive fluctuations that permeate the space.

Xiao Qing's gaze was immediately locked onto the cluster of flames in the very center of the lotus platform, and he could not look away.

This was the first time he had ever seen the birthplace of the strange fire so directly.

The most eye-catching thing was a strange blue object floating in this void.

That was not a simple blue halo, but a naturally formed blue lotus platform!

Xiao Qing's gaze was fixed on the center of the lotus throne.

There, a cluster of enchanting and vibrant blue flames was burning quietly.

Its color is pure and clear, as blue as the dawn sky, yet so deep it seems to devour the soul.

The space around the flames was slightly distorted, and light passing through it was strangely deflected.

It made no sound, but its silent burning exuded a destructive power that would terrify even a Dou Huang powerhouse!

At the same time, a powerful vitality originating from the depths of the earth coexists with it in a strange way.

This is the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, ranked nineteenth on the list of extraordinary flames!

Xiao Qing could clearly feel that the "Burning Technique" within his body was operating at an unprecedented speed.

And the fire law that had been initially grasped was also trembling slightly.

It exudes an attraction and joy that comes from the source.

He remained suspended in place, taking a deep breath of the pure fire energy mixed in with the atmosphere of this space. The shock in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by an even more fervent determination.

"The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, and this Jade Lotus Platform of Earth Core Flame... truly a masterpiece of nature!"

The old doctor's voice echoed in his heart, filled with undisguised amazement, as if he had recalled some distant memory.

"As expected! This lotus platform is a treasure formed from the essence of the earth's lava over ten thousand years. It can both nurture the strange fire and resist the fire poison. No wonder the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire can grow safely here and its spirituality is so well preserved."

Xiao Qing hovered on the edge of the lotus platform, only a few meters away from the cluster of blue flames.

An indescribable burning sensation washed over me; it wasn't a burning sensation on my skin, but a threat that seemed to directly scorch my soul.

If he hadn't possessed the Law of Fire, at this distance alone, his soul would probably have been burned to a thousand holes long ago.

"Such pure power... even in destruction, there is still a glimmer of life!"

Xiao Qing stared at the flickering blue flame, feeling both admiration and satisfaction.

This is just the aura it unconsciously emits; if it were to truly erupt, what would become of it?

Xiao Qing took a deep breath, suppressing the pounding in her heart, and her gaze fell on the warm and smooth lotus platform beneath her feet.

This Azure Lotus Platform can help absorb the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, and the few faintly visible azure lotus seeds in the center are rare and precious natural treasures born along with the strange flame!

"Teacher, what should we do next?"

He asked himself cautiously.

Although my idea was to grab it myself and refine it directly, the old doctor's experience was the key.

"The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame may seem gentle, but it is actually extremely violent. Normally, if you, with your three-star Dou Ling cultivation, were to forcibly devour it, you would be reduced to ashes in an instant."

The old doctor's tone was solemn, but he seemed to recall the bone spirit cold fire that he had refined in one go, and seemed relieved. He said, "However... you possess an innate fire spirit body, which has a natural suppressive and affinity force on all fires in the world. It should be able to greatly weaken its resistance."

He paused, then added seriously, "Remember, you must proceed gradually during the refining process. Use the 'Burning Technique' to guide it, and use your soul to control it, allowing the primordial fire seed to slowly merge into your battle qi. Once you feel you can't hold on any longer, immediately retreat to the center of the lotus platform and use the power of the lotus platform to suppress yourself. Never try to be reckless!"

"Understood." Xiao Qing nodded, keeping every word in mind.

As he landed on the lotus platform, the moment his feet touched the jade, a cool and warm energy quickly flowed throughout his body.

"It's definitely a good product!"

Xiao Qing was secretly delighted.

Standing on this lotus platform, he felt better than ever before, his mind was clear, and his perception of heaven and earth had become more acute.

Without further hesitation, he sat down cross-legged in the center of the lotus platform.

The lotus leaves, emitting a bluish-green light, seemed to come alive, slowly closing inward and protecting him in the center of the lotus platform.

The azure light became increasingly solid, not only isolating him from the external lava but also creating a safe refining environment for him.

Xiao Qing first mobilized his peak mortal realm soul power and slowly extended it to sense the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame that was so close at hand.

He did not force his way in, but rather listened as if to the heartbeat of a long-lost friend, feeling its unique and powerful fiery aura, and tried to convey a sense of friendliness.

After all, this is the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, which carries all the energy of the different flames!

It is not comparable to the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, which only possesses the power of the origin and does not have much strange fire energy, as Yao Lao possesses.

At the same time, the "Burning Technique" within his body also began to operate wildly!

The dantian vortex accelerates its rotation, generating a special suction force targeting the strange fire, which is both a summoning of the strange fire and an adjustment of oneself.

Everything is ready.

Xiao Qing raised his right hand, and at his fingertips, a wisp of highly refined golden-red flame quietly appeared.

That was a manifestation of his own fighting spirit and the original power of the Law of Fire!

Without hesitation, he reached directly for the cluster of quietly burning blue flames at the center of the lotus platform...

The moment it touched the core of the flames, the earth-shattering resistance it had imagined did not occur.

The alluring blue flame flickered slightly, as if attracted by a higher-level aura of the same origin.

Xiao Qing clenched his five fingers together and easily grasped the cyan primordial fire seed, the size of an infant's fist, in his palm!

It wasn't scalding hot to the touch, but rather a strangely warm and cool sensation.

He could feel that the primordial flame was unusually gentle in his palm, even conveying a faint sense of dependence.

This is precisely the natural suppression and extremely high affinity of the [Law of Fire] for lower-ranked strange fires!

Because he harbored good intentions and his power originated from the same supreme source, the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame did not resist in the slightest.

Seeing this unexpected success, even the old apothecary fell silent, clearly astonished by this unbelievable level of friendliness.

Xiao Qing looked down at the gentle, flickering blue flame in his palm, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

A rare opportunity!

Without further hesitation, amidst the old man's hidden astonishment, he raised his hand and put the ball of cyan flame into his mouth, swallowing it without hesitation!

"boom--!!"

The moment the spark entered the body, the seemingly docile blue flames finally revealed their fangs in the unfamiliar environment!

The terrifyingly destructive energy erupted like a volcano, instantly bursting forth within his body!

Refining, officially begins!

Every inch of Xiao Qing's meridians and every part of his soul will undergo the ultimate test of the fire from the earth's core!
