Chapter 236: The Sun Refined Spirit
Translator: wuxia dream Editor: wuxia dream
A significant angular meteorite plugged in the desert.
That meteorite was generating beautiful lights. The whole object was glowing red, emitting terrifying Sun's burning fires. The sunlight was too robust and dazzling that people could hardly open their eyes.
The meteorite was like a small mountain. The majority of it was buried deep inside the dune, and only one-third of it exposed.
Blinding red light was discharging from the meteorite, and its scorching fire power engulfed the entire area. The water inside Shi Yan's body had evaporated a lot.
If an ordinary person came here, that person would be burnt and quickly become a desiccated corpse in only around one hour.
Although Shi Yan had gone through the annealing process of the Earth Flame many times, he still could feel the severe pressure which made him hardly breath when facing this terrifying heating power of this meteorite.
There was a mysterious movement coming out from inside the meteorite. While watching the meteorite from a distance, Shi Yan immediately felt that his sea of consciousness was agitated nonstop. As he was affected by the strange power inside the meteorite, he was nearly unable to control himself, heading into that meteorite.
Shi Yan believed that once he came closer to the meteorite, as soon as his body slightly touched the burning fires next to the meteorite, he would immediately turn into ashes.
Not to mention the Earth Realm warriors, even the body of a God Realm master was not sure to remain intact under that meteorite's burning fires.
Shi Yan did not dare to take a risk, he just silently watched the huge meteorite from a distance.
The Thousand Year Earth Flame had soon flown out. When he was still startled, the Earth Flame headed towards the meteorite and disappeared into it.
Shi Yan was surprised. When he tried to contact with the Earth Flame, he realized that once he released his soul consciousness, the meteorite instantly emitted a terrifying power that violently stirred up his sea of consciousness, forcing him to retreat.
"How come?" The Ice Cold Flame's message from the Blood Vein Ring suddenly came out. It had been a long time since the Ice Cold Flame had communicated with him. As soon as it appeared, it shot out a series of icy power.
The icy power quickly surged up in Shi Yan's body, spreading out to every corner of his body. Under the effect of the icy power, Shi Yan's emotion and reckless body soon stabilized. "Oh? You can release powers?"
"Yeah, this devilish ring knows you are in trouble, so it has loosened its restraint a little bit." The Ice Cold Flame replied and kept silent again. It was seemingly releasing its spiritual power to observe around.
Not long after that, the Ice Cold Flame sent out a surprising feeling. "The Sun Refined Spirit."
"What?" Shi Yan was astonished. "What did you say?"
"That red meteorite is the Sun Refined Spirit from the center of the Sun. It is the precious Heat of the universe", The Ice Cold Flame explained. "The Sun Refined Spirit can only be found in the center of the Sun. It is the core firepower of the Sun. As you have practiced some Heating Techniques, if you can have the Sun Refined Spirit, your power will increase immensely."
"Is it useful for the Thousand Year Earth Flame?"
"Not only useful! This Sun Refined Spirit is enough for it to have a quick breakthrough to a soul completion and a strong fire power which is not less than mine. Once the Earth Flame absorbed the Sun Refined Flames in the Sun Refined Spirit and fused with its burning fires, its living form will immediately change".
Shi Yan was panicked. "What? Anything else?"
The Ice Cold Flame hesitated a bit before continuing, "There seems to be something hidden inside the Sun Refined Spirit. It has an extremely violent vibration which was as strong as the powerful soul attack of a God Realm master."
"There is something inside?" Shi Yan got surprised with his eyes and mouth wide opened. "The Sun Refined Spirit is obviously from the Sun in the sky. How come there is something inside? Would it come from the Sun?"
"It is not necessary from the Sun." The Ice Cold Flame contemplated for a while. "According to the legend, warriors who reach the True God Realm can be considered Gods. They have a superpower that can destroy the earth. Their bodies can break all the restraints in the world and fly out to the sky. It means the True God Realm warriors can go to the Sun..."
"Go to the Sun?" Shi Yan's eyes brightened. "According to you, although the thing inside the Sun Refined Spirit is not from the Sun, it is still in the hands of the True God Realm warriors?"
"Yes, that's what I meant."
Shi Yan didn't say anything more.
From a hundred meters far away, staring at that Sun Refined Spirit which was releasing dazzling burning fires and feeling his eyes hurt, Shi Yan slowly closed his eyes and mumbled to himself, "Is it impossible to come closer…?!"
Although the Earth Flame had tempered his body and there was a lot of burning fires' power of the Earth Flame inside his body, he still hardly endured the scorching Sun Refined Flames surrounding the Sun Refined Spirit.
From a hundred meters away from the Sun Refined Spirit, he could feel his body blistering hot already. If he reached the Sun Refined Spirit, perhaps he would be burnt to ashes.
"Do you want to come closer?" The Ice Cold Flame seemed to know his intention and asked. "With your ability alone, you are unable to come closer. However, with my help, it is still possible…"
"What are you waiting for then?" Shi Yan quietly shouted. Right after that, he could immediately feel the freezing icy power. Under the icy power, his body got frozen in just a blink.
A solid ice spread out his entire body. It was like an ice armor wrapping him around.
Under the ice shield's protection, Shi Yan realized that the heat from the Sun Refined Spirit had disappeared. He didn't have the feeling that his body was burning anymore.
"Thump thump thump."
With the ice armor, Shi Yan was more daring, moving step by step towards the Sun Refined Spirit. However, he still didn't dare to go too fast.
Fifty meters
Thirty meters
Twenty meters
Ten meters, Shi Yan suddenly stopped.
From ten meters away, a bunch of scorching Sun Refined Flames flew around the Sun Refined Spirit without dispersing.
The Sun Refined Spirit was very close to him now. If he moved a little more, he could reach it; however, but he didn't know what was going to happen.
"You should not come closer. That is enough." The Ice Cold Flame warned him. "Close your eyes as well. You will be blind if you keep staring at it for a long time".
Shi Yan stammered in fear and hurried to close his eyes. From the distance of ten meters, he wanted to release his soul consciousness to communicate with the Earth Flame again.
"If you don't want to be attacked by the Sun Refined Spirit, you better not release the soul consciousness. Once your soul consciousness is released, the thing inside that will immediately realize and attack it. I've also recognized that the forces discharging from inside the Sun Refined Spirit can damage your soul much more terribly than I can. In other words, you are not able to resist it."
Shi Yan immediately stopped releasing his soul consciousness after being warned by the Ice Cold Flame.
"So, what should we do now?"
"We can do nothing except for waiting for the Earth Flame. Only the Earth Flame is not affected by the Sun Refined Spirit. The Earth Flame's living form is unique. Since it dares to go closer, it is probably not afraid of the thing inside. Hmm, wait for the Earth Flame to come back or until it proactively contacts you. Except for that, don't do anything."
As Shi Yan could do nothing, he closed his eyes, standing motionlessly ten meters away from the Sun Refined Spirit and waiting. He did not dare to release his soul consciousness either, only used his body to feel the scorching Sun power from the Sun Refined Spirit.
"Oh?" Many streams of burning Sun power from inside the Sun Refined Spirit were rolling towards Shi Yan. Seeming to be under the control of something, they quietly went into Shi Yan's chest and poured into Shi Yan's heart.
After having received the Sun power, his heart suddenly projected a red light. The star lights above his heart started brightening little by little and seemed to begin moving around above his heart as if it was some miraculous unpredictable formation that was completely out of Shi Yan's expectation.
"This, is this?" The Ice Cold Flame was extremely astonished. The icy power inside The Blood Vein Ring became weakened.
Many sun powers went into Shi Yan's chest and quickly poured into Shi Yan's heart, which might result in some transformation inside his heart. The burning fires' power was getting more intense while his heart was able to receive more and more burning fires' powers, becoming incredibly dazzling.
Blinding sun lights from Shi Yan's heart were suddenly shot out. Shi Yan instantly became a light generator; his entire body generated many powerful lights.
"What's happening?". The Ice Cold Flame didn't seem to understand anything. It hurriedly communicated with Shi Yan. "Why, why can your heart absorb sun lights? The Star Martial Spirit, I got it! The sun is also a star. The sun power is also considered as the power of stars. It should be it."
While the sun power kept rolling into his heart, Shi Yan felt as if he was soaking in a boiling oil pot. This kind of pain was indescribable.
That was why he couldn't even communicate with the Ice Cold Flame. He could only passively suffer the pain, letting the sun power flow into his heart.
A bunch of mysterious whirls appeared on his chest at this moment. This peculiar Black Formula belonged to the Three Gods Sect and started activating.
The existence of these three whirls attracted more and more sun powers. They kept pouring into his heart with the speed that was getting crazily faster and faster.
"Boom!" His body suddenly burst into flame. The scorching Solar Refined Flame started burning inside his body.
The Ice Cold Flame hardly communicated with Shi Yan. It knew that if it let the sun powers burn Shi Yan to ashes, Shi Yan's soul would never be liberated, and it would obviously deadly vanish in the end.
If Shi Yan died, the Blood Vein Ring would have no master anymore. Thus, it would be confined forever which was not the result that the Ice Cold Flame wanted to see.
The Heaven icy power was getting denser and suddenly spread out from the Blood Vein Ring.
The Ice Cold Flame quickly released its power. It didn't regret to use the billion-year-trained icy power to help Shi Yan resist the Solar Refined Flame inside his body. Thanks to a right amount of the icy power that had absorbed into Shi Yan's body, the Solar Refined Flames have immediately neutralized afterward.
One of Shi Yan's eyes shot out the burning fires, and the other projected the icy power. His entire body entered an extremely strange state.
