Before coming to the Ancient Desolate Planet, Su Chen did not feel anything. But now, Su Chen knew that coming here was definitely the right choice.
He had already made up his mind to stay here as long as possible.
There were less than seven years before he would return to the Xuanyuan Continent.
Considering that he had to leave a year for the Sage Tribulation, Su Chen still had six years left to improve his strength.
If he stayed on the Ancient Desolate Planet for six years, Su Chen was even confident that he could upgrade the Great Holy Flame to the maximum level!
A maximum level Great Holy Flame. Just thinking about it was exciting.
When the time came, he would be able to pass the Sage Tribulation without any pressure.
"Sizzle …"
After refining a dozen more balls of Eight Barren Heavenly Flames, Su Chen yawned. He was a little tired.
After completing missions for a month without rest, no matter how strong Su Chen's mental strength was, he could not take it.
After all, this was not the Mirage Path. There was no strong sense of danger that forced Su Chen. He could not risk his life like he did before.
Moreover, it was necessary to strike a balance between work and rest.
Su Chen found a secluded place to rest for half a day to recover his energy.
After twelve hours of rest, Su Chen's condition had completely recovered.
"During this period of time, I have destroyed most of the Eight Barren Heavenly Flames outside the Arctic Circle. I can consider entering the Arctic Circle."
Su Chen pondered for a moment and then flew towards the North.
He did not go too deep. After flying for a few hundred miles, he stopped. The Eight Barren Heavenly Flames were much more concentrated here. In a small valley, there were hundreds of balls of Eight Barren Heavenly Flames gathered. This undoubtedly made it more difficult for Su Chen.
However, Su Chen had accumulated a lot of experience during this period. He was very familiar with the characteristics of the Eight Barren Heavenly Flames. He could use Spiritual Qi to lure the Eight Barren Heavenly Flames out and disperse them.
All he needed to do was to set up a simple portable Spirit Gathering Formation. This was not a problem for Su Chen.
Experience was indeed something that needed to be accumulated bit by bit.
Over the next few days, Su Chen was still happily completing missions and refining the Divine Fire.
Due to the increase in the number of Divine Fires in the Arctic Circle, the frequency of Su Chen's quests had also increased. On average, he could earn over 80,000,000 Skill Points every day through quests.
Su Chen was grinning from ear to ear at the income of 2.5 billion yuan a month.
No, no, he had to be reserved. He couldn't be too arrogant, or else he would be targeted by the system.
While thinking, Su Chen completed another round of missions.
Just as Su Chen was about to search for other Eight Barrens Divine Flames, a humanoid flame suddenly flew past several hundred meters in front of him.
"That is …"
Su Chen could sense that the human-shaped flame was also the Eight Desolation Divine Flame, but it was hotter and more powerful. Furthermore, it contained a faint soul energy fluctuation.
This was the Eight Desolation Divine Flame that had already condensed a Fire Spirit. It was of a higher grade than the ordinary Eight Desolation Divine Flame!
Should he capture it and refine it?
Su Chen estimated that this Fire Spirit was twice as powerful as the ordinary Eight Desolation Divine Flame. Its speed was also faster. However, with Su Chen's current experience in dealing with Eight Desolation Divine Flames, capturing it was not a problem. Moreover, there was only one Fire Spirit, so it was not difficult.
Su Chen grabbed the Fire Spirit with his Heaven Punishing Grappling Hands. At the same time, he unleashed his divine inscriptions, binding the Fire Spirit tightly.
Refining the Fire Spirit required 500,000 Skill Points, which was five times more than the ordinary Eight Desolation Divine Flame.
Just as Su Chen was about to refine it, he suddenly thought of something.
Opening the mission system, Su Chen began to search for missions above Level 30.
When he reached Level 40, he found a new mission.
"Ding! New mission: Kill a Desolation Fire Spirit."
There really was a mission like that.
He wondered if the reward for activating a mission that cost 40 million Skill Points would be higher.
Su Chen refined the Desolation Fire Spirit directly.
"Ding! Congratulations to host for completing the mission. Reward: 100,000,000 Skill Points. Additional reward: Fire Spirit."
He had earned 60,000,000 Skill Points!
And there was an additional reward!
Damn, how was this a Desolation Fire Spirit? This was the Child of Wealth!
Su Chen held the Fire Spirit in his hand.
This was a red crystal. It was a top-notch fire-elemental material that could be used to strengthen fire-elemental treasures.
Su Chen took out the Mystical Fire Sword and merged the Fire Spirit into the blade.
"Xiao Gu, how much has the Mystical Fire Sword's power increased?" Su Chen asked.
The Sword Spirit, Xiao Gu, floated out and said happily, "Master, this Fire Spirit has increased the Mystical Fire Sword's power by 5%!"
Not bad!
The Mystical Fire Sword's power was already comparable to a First Grade Sacred Artifact. Now that it had been increased, it was infinitely close to becoming a Sacred Artifact. If it absorbed a few more Fire Spirits, it might really break through to the Sacred Tier.
Putting away the Mystical Fire Sword, Su Chen continued to do Level 30 missions.
The Desolation Fire Spirits for Level 40 missions were definitely not easy to encounter. He would just have to wait until he encountered them. His main goal was to get the normal Eight Desolation Divine Flames.
In the blink of an eye, another month had passed.
The Great Holy Flame had leveled up to Level 17.
The total number of Skill Points had also reached 35,000,000.
After half a day of rest, Su Chen once again stepped onto the path of Gods.
"Hmm …"
Su Chen was in a canyon. To his surprise, he found that there were 15 Desolation Fire Spirits gathered here!
He had earned 60,000,000 Skill Points each, which was a total of 900,000,000 Skill Points!
He had to kill them.
However, he had to be careful. He had to lure the Desolation Fire Spirits away one by one, scatter them, and kill them one by one. Otherwise, if he was surrounded by 15 Desolation Fire Spirits, Su Chen would not be able to protect himself no matter how high his resistance was.
Su Chen was very careful. He spent an hour carving 15 Spirit Gathering Formations around him. He activated them one by one, using the Spirit Qi fluctuations to attract the 15 Desolation Fire Spirits.
Within the Spirit Gathering Formation was a small Binding Formation. It was like a piece of sticky paper. Once the Desolation Fire Spirits entered the formation, they would be trapped.
However, the Desolation Fire Spirits were very strong. The formation would not be able to trap them for too long. At most, it would only last two to three minutes.
However, it was enough for Su Chen.
Soon, Su Chen refined the 15 Desolation Fire Spirits one by one. While obtaining 900,000,000 Skill Points, Su Chen also obtained nine additional Fire Souls.
Su Chen refined the Fire Souls one by one into the Mystical Fire Sword. When he refined the fifth one, the Mystical Fire Sword suddenly exploded with a strong Fire Spirit fluctuation.
'Ding! Congratulations to the host for upgrading the Mystical Fire Sword to a First Grade Sacred Artifact. You have received a chance to enter the High-Grade Lottery Wheel.'
Haha!
Su Chen could not help but laugh. The Mystical Fire Sword had indeed become a Sacred Artifact.
There were still four Fire Souls left. Su Chen did not continue to use them on the Mystical Fire Sword. Instead, he refined them into the Fire Dragon Armor to increase its Fire Resistance.
"Speaking of which, should I stack up a bunch more Lightning Resistance?"
After all, the Heavenly Tribulation was mainly of the Lightning attribute. Although there were also Fire attributes, even if Su Chen was immune to the high temperature of the Lightning Fire, the paralysis effect was the most fatal.
