Chapter 169 Miscalculation, Five Spiritual Flames, Hunting Forbidden Zone

Song Chen sneered, "I'll let you burn me!"

He activated the spiritual fire, and it began to burn.

Linglong Zi immediately began to refine this wisp of spiritual fire.

Shi Zhonghuo's unruly attitude did not diminish.

It kept running around, trying to escape Linglong Zi, and released carrion flames.

But in front of the enormous Linglong Zi.

This level of damage is negligible.

When the light yellow color in the stone turned to the size of a sesame seed, it finally gave in.

Song Chen sensed the connection between him and the light yellow stone.

Successfully subdued the spirit fire!

Song Chen opened his eyes and took a deep breath.

Wild spirit fire is difficult to tame.

There wouldn't have been so many problems if we had subdued Linglong Zi before.

With a thought, a tiny, pale yellow sliver the size of a sesame seed appeared on the tip of Song Chen's index finger.

He then took out another strand of exquisite purple silk of the same size.

When the two are combined, a pale purple flame with the characteristics of both is created.

"Not bad." Song Chen was pleasantly surprised.

Flames can merge or separate at any time.

Moreover, the combined flames are even more powerful.

Song Chen thought to himself, it seems that he needs to put the matter of subduing the spirit fire on the agenda.

Once they reach the Nascent Soul stage, he can forge a flying sword for Zhao Ziyi.

Zhao Ziyi has dual spiritual roots of earth and fire. If the flame emitted from the flying sword is spiritual fire, its power will be greatly increased!

While thinking about his good fortune, Song Chen lowered his head and cleaved the remaining four stones on the steel platform in one go.

Song Chen had already fused with the light yellow color of the stone, so now he could absorb the same flame without any resistance.

However, when the four stones cracked, Song Chen felt that he was about to crack as well.

Pale blue, pale gray, the pale blue of the sea, and vermilion red.

Why are the flames inside these four stones different?

Four fires within the stone, plus the light yellow hue within the stone, make five spirit fires.

With five different types of spirit fire appearing at once, has Jiang Xia stirred up trouble in the heart of the spirit fire realm?

Fire in stone goes out when it leaves the stone.

The four flames detached from the rocks and entered the seawater, where their intensity gradually diminished.

Without a second thought, Song Chen unleashed the Exquisite Purple, drawing the four flames into his meridians.

He sat cross-legged again, focusing on circulating his spiritual energy and bringing the spiritual fire into his dantian.

Song Chen's face turned purple from the cold one moment and bright red from the heat the next.

These stones containing fire are wild and untamed, no less so than the light yellow stones containing goose-yellow.

Three hours passed.

The seawater within three meters of Song Chen began to boil.

Countless bubbles appeared out of thin air.

Even the steel platform beneath the prayer mat was glowing red from the heat.

Suddenly, Song Chen opened his eyes.

With a "bang".

A delicate purple flame, several meters wide, appeared like a flower bud and began to burn around Song Chen.

Standing in the flames, Song Chen felt his blood boiling unbearably, as if an endless heat was surging within him that needed to be consumed.

With red eyes, Song Chen searched everywhere for ways to dissipate the heat.

When he saw the canyon in the deep sea, he flew directly to the front of the canyon.

A tremendous impact came from the mouth of the canyon.

Song Chen spread his arms wide, accepting the most violent impact of the water flow.

The loud noise and vibration startled Zhao Ziyi and the others who were sorting through the seafood.

They quickly dropped what they were holding and rushed back to the steel platform.

When everyone saw the hidden abyss, they were all shocked.

In a vast, deep canyon.

Song Chen stood alone, surrounded by towering flames, his tiny figure blocking the exit of the canyon, motionless.

A strong current of water washed over his body.

The spiritual fire surrounding Song Chen also burned away all the seawater that passed by.

Jiang Xia exclaimed in surprise:

"Boss Song, you've advanced to the Nascent Soul stage?"

Zhao Ziyi shook his head:

"No way! Just a few days ago, Song Chen advanced to the fourth level of the Golden Core stage. How could he possibly advance directly to the Nascent Soul stage!"

Jiang Xia murmured in a daze:

"However, only cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage can withstand the impact of such a strong water flow; even those at the Core Formation stage cannot."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ziyi immediately communicated telepathically with Song Chen.

He asked anxiously:

"Song Chen, how are you now? Are you in any danger? Did you use those five stones on the ground?"

Such a thing happening in such a short time must be due to changes brought about by an unknown stone.

Fortunately, Song Chen's body was hot, but his mind was clear and he could still answer questions.

Song Chen comforted him telepathically:

"I'm fine now. Those five stones contain fire within stones, a type of spiritual fire. Subduing them will be beneficial to me."

I was a bit too hasty; I opened all the stones at once, hoping to absorb them all at once.

The result was five different kinds of fire in the stone.

I've absorbed too much fire right now; releasing it will make me fine.

Hearing this, Zhao Ziyi breathed a sigh of relief; it was good that nothing was wrong.

He said to Jiang Xia beside him:

"It's alright, you guys continue processing the seafood, I'll stay here with Song Chen."

Song Chen will be fine; he's just releasing some excess heat from his body.

By the way, what's on the other side of this canyon?

Could a sea monster attack again and ambush Song Chen?

Jiang Xia's heart settled down. He realized that Boss Song's change was probably caused by the stone. Fortunately, he hadn't caused any trouble.

Jiangxia guaranteed:

"Don't worry, they won't. After the tide recedes, those spirit beasts won't attack again for at least a month."

During this period, there will be no sea spirit beasts near the canyon.

As for the other side of this deep-sea canyon, our ancestors forbade us to go there.

We don't know what's over there.

However, I know that the other side of the deep-sea canyon is known as a no-hunting zone.

"A no-hunting zone?" Zhao Ziyi murmured. What did that mean?

Jiang Xia led everyone back the way they came to prepare the seafood. Before leaving, he specifically instructed them:

"Mr. Zhao, it's best not to go to the other side of the deep-sea canyon."

If you wish to go, you can ask Patriarch Wuzhiqi to accompany you.

The ancestor cultivated on a floating island above the sea.

It only takes about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Zhao Ziyi nodded:

"Okay, I understand. You guys go ahead and hurry up and finish processing the ingredients."

Besides hunting down many third- and fourth-tier demonic beasts, Jiang Xia and his companions also...

They also caught several tons of first and second-order shrimp, crabs, fish, and shellfish.

It tastes delicious when you eat it, but it's also troublesome to prepare.

After everyone left.

Zhao Ziyi swam to the edge of the platform and looked at Song Chen with concern.

How are you feeling now?

Song Chen smiled and said:

"It feels great. I think we can put our plan to purchase the Spiritfire on the agenda now."

"Let me show you my latest flame, now."

Song Chen raised his hand, and a red flame the size of an orange quickly passed through the huge purple flame and flew to Zhao Ziyi's side.

Zhao Ziyi caught the spirit fire in his palm and observed it for a while.

Because this is Song Chen's spiritual fire, he, as Song Chen's Daoist partner, will not be burned by the flames at all.

Even the hottest temperature is only warm to him.

The red flames are red at the bottom, and the flames above leap and flash with different colors.

It turns gray one moment and blue the next.

Zhao Ziyi nodded in affirmation:

"It has indeed become stronger. The power of this flame is 50% stronger than before. It seems to have a miraculous effect in devouring flames."

"When we see the Ancestor again, we'll have him pass a message to Xiao Shi: Let's begin acquiring spirit fire!"
