The Soul Annihilation Purifying Heavenly Fire used the Spiritual Soul as the material and the Spiritual Soul as smoke. It was a true Heavenly Fire that was ignited within the Spiritual Soul. If the Spiritual Soul was completely burned away, only a shell would be left of the body.
Xiao Chen stood in the void, his body shaking like a leaf. Under the Tribulation Clouds in the sky, thunderbolts fell continuously and landed on his Battle Body. However, they didn't cause any damage to his Battle Body.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared outside, but it couldn't compare to the danger inside. At this moment, there was an illusory flame dancing in his eyes. His Battle Body, which was dozens of meters tall, was like a candle in the wind, on the verge of collapse!
He had encountered the World-Cleansing Thunderbolt Flame, the Body-Cleansing Red Lotus Flame, and the Soul Annihilation Purifying Flame. Even the most mysterious Soul Fire, the Soul Annihilation Purifying Flame, had been hidden within the Flaming Divine Dragon created by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire. This was completely unexpected to Xiao Chen.
His Spiritual Sea had experienced many twists and turns in the Secret Territory. After devouring a wisp of the Half King's Soul Consciousness, Xiao Chen's Spiritual Sea had become even more stable. However, he felt helpless in the face of the Heavenly Fire.
An illusory lotus flame fell into the center of his Spiritual Sea. The entire Spiritual Sea was burned into a huge black hole. The flame grew stronger when it came in contact with the Soul Power. If Xiao Chen hadn't endured the pain deep in his soul and tried his best to gather the Soul Power in his Spiritual Sea, this Heavenly Fire would have been even more vigorous.
He could clearly feel that this seemingly illusory flame brought him the aura of death. However, the Heavenly Fire disappeared and fell into his Spiritual Sea. It started to burn his Spiritual Soul. Even though his Battle Body was unparalleled and his Battle Force surged, he couldn't do anything about it.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
Endless soul waves surged in his Spiritual Sea. After a brief moment of shock, Xiao Chen was no longer panicking. The Heavenly Fire Tribulation was a test that the Heavens sent when a martialist's cultivation reached a certain level.
Although the Heavenly Fire was unpredictable, there were thousands of Great Paths. There would always be a chance of survival. Of course, this chance of survival also required great strength.
"Although the Heavenly Fire is strong, it's far from enough to turn this clan leader's divine soul into ashes!"
Feeling the crisis in his Spiritual Sea, Xiao Chen's eyes flashed with madness. Since this flame wanted to burn his Spiritual Sea, he would devour it completely. Let's see if the Heavenly Flame would destroy his Spiritual Sea or if he would refine the Heavenly Flame.
The Soul Annihilation Fire was the fire of the soul. An extremely bold idea emerged in Xiao Chen's mind. He was going to refine the heaven fire in his spiritual sea for his own use.
"Condense!"
Making up his mind, Xiao Chen's Soul Sea surged with boundless waves, surrounding the Flames of Nothingness. In an instant, the flames flourished, and a large amount of Soul Power was drawn out of the Soul Sea, entering the depths of the flames.
The Heavenly Fire was originally the will of the heavens and earth. It was manifested from the Great Path of Fire. Xiao Chen's comprehension of the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire had reached the Small Success realm. Although he was still several tens of millions of miles away from the Great Path of Fire, all the flames that were born in the world were inseparable from the evolution of the Great Path of Fire.
Enduring the intense pain, Xiao Chen sent his Soul Power into the Soul Annihilation Fire. As he was burned by the Heavenly Fire, he was also comprehending the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire from a close distance. This time, the Heavenly Fire in front of Xiao Chen took on a completely different appearance.
Mysterious marks intertwined with each other. Countless fiery marks intertwined with each other, revolving in the most suitable trajectory of the world. Finally, they intertwined with each other and turned into balls of fire.
Fire Marks!
These were the trajectories of fire between the heavens and earth. In the past, it would have been difficult to manifest them in the world. Moreover, because they were directly manifested by the Esoteric Mysteries of the heavens and earth, they descended upon Xiao Chen and turned into a test. This made these fire trajectories seem even purer.
In the past, if a martial artist wanted to comprehend the Esoteric Mysteries of the heavens and earth, they would need to spend a great deal of effort to capture the Esoteric Mysteries of the heavens and earth.
Moreover, these manifested Esoteric Mysteries of the heavens and earth were blurry and incomplete. If one wanted to comprehend them, they would need to expend a great deal of effort.
Mysterious marks manifested in Xiao Chen's Soul Sea. These mysterious markings emitted a faint light. However, in the depths of these Esoteric Mysteries, there seemed to be a divine radiance that constantly flickered. There were red, yellow, white, gold, and black. The Great Dao was formless and ever-changing.
The Great Dao of Fire wasn't something that Xiao Chen could comprehend right now. After all, he was just a tiny Supremacy. The evolution of the Great Dao was a forbidden domain that only Kings could touch. It was rumored that only Kings could truly merge with their own Great Dao, truly making a Great Dao their own.
Right now, Xiao Chen could only comprehend a trace of the Great Dao of Fire. Although the Great Dao of Fire was only one of the basic Daos of the five elements, the Daos of the five elements were the foundation of the world. The Great Dao of the five elements was also one of the top Great Daos of the heavens and earth.
The Esoteric Mysteries of Fire that Xiao Chen comprehended earlier had reached the Minor Completion realm. The flames were formless, blazing, bright, and explosive. The flames could incinerate everything in the world, turning them into ashes. These were all the characteristics of flames.
In just a short moment, Xiao Chen comprehended the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire in the depths of the Heavenly Flames. His Minor Completion realm of the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire skyrocketed to the peak of the Minor Completion realm. Half an hour later, he crossed the peak of the Minor Completion realm and entered the Major Completion realm.
In the eyes of Xiao Chen, the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire in the heavens and earth were no longer like looking at flowers through a fog or looking for the moon in the water. Divine light flashed in the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire. Every time it flashed, it would emit a mysterious Dao Rhythm. The Great Dao was simple, but there were endless changes. This made Xiao Chen feel intoxicated.
It was as if he was immersed in this Dao Rhythm, unable to extricate himself. In this state, his Esoteric Mysteries of Fire quickly reached the peak of the Major Completion realm. However, it still showed no signs of stopping.
At this moment, in Xiao Chen's Soul Sea, an illusory scarlet Esoteric Mysteries of Fire appeared. The Esoteric Mysteries of Fire pulsed continuously, emitting a mysterious rhythm. However, compared to the drifting Esoteric Mysteries of Fire, it seemed a little lacking. This was the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire that Xiao Chen had evolved.
Buzz buzz buzz!
Complete Completion realm!
Complete Completion realm of the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire!
Finally, the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire in Xiao Chen's Soul Sea erupted with endless divine light. It seemed to be resonating with the Great Dao of Fire in the heavens and earth.
With the help of the Heavenly Fire, Xiao Chen finally comprehended the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire to the Complete Completion realm.
However, the price he had to pay was not small. In order for the Heavenly Fire to manifest the Fire Dao Seal, Xiao Chen's Soul Power had been turned into nothingness by the Heavenly Fire. However, it was all worth it.
The Esoteric Mysteries of Fire to the Great Dao of Fire was the foundation for the next step of comprehending the Great Dao of Fire. Only by comprehending one Esoteric Mysteries of Fire to the Great Dao of Fire could one be qualified to comprehend the Great Dao of Fire. Soul Power could be replenished, but comprehension was a flash of light. Perhaps the world would be cleared up with a flash of light, or perhaps one would be muddle-headed for the rest of one's life.
Finally, with a thought from Xiao Chen, the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire formed a trajectory towards the illusory Soul Annihilation Purification Flame. It suddenly plunged into the center of the flame.
In the next moment, the flame that was burning intensely in his Soul Sea suddenly stopped. It was completely frozen at the moment when the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire entered it.
"Condense!"
The Soul Annihilation Purification Flame, which was originally wreaking havoc, completely calmed down. It once again turned into an illusory flame that was only the size of a palm.
Hovering above the Soul Sea, it seemed so harmless. It was simply hard to imagine that this unremarkable flame had ignited into a sky-covering flame. Buzz!
Buzz! Buzz!
Suddenly, something strange happened. The Esoteric Mysteries of Fire that Xiao Chen had comprehended had strangely fused with this Heavenly Fire. It was as if this flame was the incarnation of the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire.
This was out of Xiao Chen's expectations. However, having comprehended the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire to perfection, Xiao Chen wouldn't have to worry about comprehending the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire until he reached the half-step King realm.
The Esoteric Mysteries of Fire was the original Esoteric Mysteries of Fire. It was not strange for it to be able to fuse with the Soul Annihilation Purification Flame. This also made it easier for Xiao Chen to control this Heavenly Fire.
Swish!
Up in the sky, Xiao Chen, who was being harassed by the Soul Annihilation Purification Flame, suddenly shot out two startling beams of flame. Heavenly Fire Tribulation, the descent of three great Heavenly Fires, had allowed him to pass through without any mishap.
At this moment, when he raised his head to look at the sky, the sky was already clear. There were no images of tribulation clouds. When Xiao Chen comprehended the Esoteric Mysteries of Fire to perfection and branded the Heavenly Fire with his own mark, the tribulation had already dispersed.
The heaven's will had sent down a tribulation. The three great Heavenly Fires and the lightning tribulation were unable to do anything to Xiao Chen. The heaven's trial had already passed, and Xiao Chen's strength had obtained the heaven's will's recognition.
At this moment, the Gulin Mountain Range below had already changed. Ancient trees and rocks were in a mess, and the mist and miasma had already been dispersed.
Buzz!
Suddenly, Xiao Chen's figure disappeared from the sky.
The Mountain and River Seal Grotto-Heaven was now called the Grotto-Heaven Herb Garden. Although he had passed the Heavenly Fire Tribulation, Xiao Chen had also consumed a lot of energy. However, he had gained more benefits.
Under the tempering of the Thunder Purification Flame, the Golden Battle Body had become more solid. His flesh and blood were like diamonds, and his bones were like crystals. His Esoteric Mysteries of Fire had also been comprehended to perfection. Such a harvest could not be underestimated.
In the Grotto-Heaven Herb Garden, the young Heavenly Horse was still wrapped in golden flames. It seemed that the remains of the Five Star Heavenly Horse had brought it benefits far beyond imagination.
Buzz! Buzz!
Buzz! Xiao Chen's whole body was full of Primordial Stones and Spiritual Herbs again. A huge amount of Primordial Qi was swallowed by his body. After the Heavenly Fire Tribulation, what Xiao Chen needed to do now was to improve his Battle Qi to the Sixth Heavenly Layer of Heavenly Building Realm and become a real Venerable!
Ten days later.
On the top of an ancient mountain that was thousands of feet high, Xiao Chen stood at the top of the mountain, overlooking the surrounding desolate land. At the end of the horizon, an ancient city was lying between heaven and earth like a giant beast. Even though Xiao Chen was hundreds of miles away, he could still see it very clearly.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen's figure flickered and flew down the ancient mountain. Even though the mountain range was endless, in less than a quarter of an hour, he had already crossed hundreds of miles and descended on the wasteland outside the ancient city, blending into the vast stream of people.
Whoosh!
A sound rang from the sky, the huge sound was shocking.
Boom!
In the depths of the sky, a huge beast shadow tore through the sky and appeared in the sky above the wasteland. The violent airflow tore the ground in the distance, creating a deep ravine. The surrounding martial artists were instantly swept away by the airflow and fell to the ground hundreds of feet away.
On top of the huge beast, there was an old man in a white robe standing. Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, and then the corner of his mouth twitched into a sinister smile.
The desolate border was really very small. He did not expect that he would have a chance to take revenge as soon as he became a Venerable.
Because he found that this old man in a white robe turned out to be an acquaintance!
