Chapter 873: Luo Chen Breaks Through, Origin of Fire

~17 min read 3,321 words

The Tribulation Gu disappearing from his own life-bound magic treasure was a major event, so how could Luo Chen not change his expression?

But fortunately, when sealing this Gu earlier, Luo Chen had placed many restrictions on it.

At this moment, according to the guidance of his spiritual sense, Luo Chen finally found its trace in a certain part of the Hunyuan Cauldron.

It was exactly where the cracks had opened during the battle in the Yaowang Domain years ago.

Those wisps of cracks had begun to gradually heal under years of nourishment, but they were always just a little bit short.

It was also because of this little bit that Luo Chen hadn't wanted to fight with others recently.

After all, his life-bound magic treasure was flawed; if someone found a flaw and destroyed it, under the connection of his mind, no matter how many split souls Luo Chen had, he would inevitably suffer an extremely serious backlash.

At this moment, those shocking cracks were unexpectedly outlining a fluttering butterfly!

Luo Chen was suspicious and uncertain, his fingers touching the butterfly patterns.

He was certain that this was that Tier 5 Tribulation Gu!

Even, if he were willing, he could peel it out of his life-bound magic treasure.

But Luo Chen did not.

"Is it that my life-bound magic treasure sensed this Gu and helped repair the flaws on its body, so it took the initiative to absorb it?"

Luo Chen muttered.

He could feel that the current Hunyuan Cauldron indeed had no more flaws.

But the problem came again!

The Hunyuan Cauldron was not yet a spiritual treasure that had given birth to a spirit, so how could it have its own consciousness to take the initiative to absorb external objects?

Suddenly!

The scene of the Fallen Demon Land years ago appeared in Luo Chen's memory.

In the Alchemy Heaven Cauldron of the Alchemy Hall, a wisp of gray light escaped, once causing Moon Scatterer to make a move to snatch it.

In the end, that wisp of gray light was absorbed by the Hunyuan Cauldron.

Later, it was also because of this wisp of gray light that the Hunyuan Cauldron was able to absorb the last round of the most terrifying thunder tribulation when Luo Chen passed the Nascent Soul thunder tribulation.

Now taking the initiative to absorb the Tier 5 Tribulation Gu was likely its doing as well.

"So, what exactly are you?"

Luo Chen spread his spiritual sense, searching the Hunyuan Cauldron from top to bottom continuously.

Finally, there was no result!

"Are you too powerful for me to find, or have you completely merged with my life-bound magic treasure, so you are omnipresent and have no special characteristics?"

Luo Chen could not find the answer.

The only thing he could be certain of was that he could still use the Hunyuan Cauldron as easily as his own arm, and that gray light had no harm to him.

Instead, in two consecutive autonomous actions, it had done things beneficial to him.

"The Great Thousand World has too many mysterious and wonderful things, and with my current realm, I am far from being able to glimpse the essence of things."

"Only by comprehending the true meaning of laws, understanding the laws of nature, and the essence of the world, can one possess the foundation to explore these mysterious things."

"Let it be for now!"

Luo Chen sighed gloomily, no longer troubling himself, and shifted his focus to comprehending the true meaning of fire-attribute laws.

The matter of President Sima Hui Niang and Luo Lingxi harming the low-level disciples of the sect did not cause any waves.

Everything was carried out in secret and ended in secret.

President Sima Hui Niang was ordered to be confined, Luo Lingxi's realm stopped at Qi Refining Level 4, and the four people including Zang Yuzhi did not know what kind of major event they had experienced.

They only knew that the Supreme Elder appreciated their hard work in cultivation, so he specifically called them to Dan Mountain to give them earnest advice, and also bestowed a large amount of cultivation resources suitable for Qi Refining stage cultivators.

After returning, with some publicity, the low-level disciples of the Luotian Sect became even more diligent in their cultivation.

Entering this Alchemy Saint Blessed Land, in just a few short years, several people had broken through to the Foundation Establishment realm one after another.

Even a Jin Dan cultivator was added.

Everything was developing in a good direction, and Luo Chen was the same.

Having experienced drawing the fourth-rank "Fire Phoenix Scorching the Plains" talisman and pushing this spell to the Great Perfection level, making similar fire-attribute fourth-rank talismans was no longer very difficult for Luo Chen.

What he needed was just to push the "Fire Dragon Descending" spell to the Great Perfection level in the process of making talismans.

Of course, there were differences.

"Fire Phoenix Scorching the Plains" is a large-scale attack similar to the "Qingyang Great Handprint"; when attacking enemies, it basically belongs to indiscriminate coverage, so the momentum is extremely great.

But Fire Dragon Descending was not like that.

It paid more attention to locking onto the enemy with spiritual sense, and could be tracked from a thousand miles away.

The target was precise and could not escape!

Therefore, when drawing the talisman, the soul power required was also more massive.

Every time he drew, Luo Chen had to be extremely careful, allocating the proportion of magic power and spiritual sense, to avoid a situation of imbalance.

Time flowed slowly in Luo Chen's focused talisman making.

Just one year later, on Dan Mountain, wind and clouds rose again!

The majestic and misty spiritual energy poured back into Dan Mountain like a great river.

Luo Chen slowly closed his eyes and muttered in his heart: "It's time!"

The physical eyes closed, but the Nascent Soul's eyes had already opened, and the massive spiritual sense spread out like before, spreading into the depths of the void.

This time, no one disturbed him, and Luo Chen did not look back.

He finally arrived at that ocean of Yuan Qi that was like a mother's embrace!

He was somewhat lost in it, but with the guidance of the spiritual machine, Luo Chen gradually found what he wanted from the ever-changing Yuan Qi that contained countless attributes by pulling out the silk and peeling the cocoon.

That was an ordinary little flame.

Far less complex than the Wither-Prosper Divine Fire, nor as full of spirituality as the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire, let alone comparable to the noble and brilliant Nirvana Holy Fire.

But it burned silently, providing light and heat to the world.

It could be the scorching heat that erupted when a star was destroyed, or it could be the soul fire burning vigorously between the souls of living beings in the Nine Nether, and even the oil lamp lit by a mortal could be it.

Mastering this origin meant being able to drive any flame in the world.

"So this is the origin of fire."

As he muttered, a majestic force swept over, wanting to annihilate Luo Chen's soul and assimilate it.

Fortunately, with the spiritual machine on his body, Luo Chen retreated calmly.

Even before leaving, he rolled away a group of extremely pure Yuan Qi.

Boom!

The spiritual sense returned, and Luo Chen opened his eyes.

Magic power sprayed out from his body, turning into streaks of scorching flames in the spacious cave dwelling.

This flame was purely formed by him activating his magic power!

The Wither-Prosper Divine Fire and the Nirvana Holy Fire were stimulated, escaping from Luo Chen's Purple Mansion and guarding his left and right sides, showing submission.

Luo Chen was not surprised, as both of these divine fires were refined by himself.

With a thought, his spiritual sense spread out.

On Dan Mountain, the volcano that had been extinguished for many years suddenly shook again.

Large amounts of magma flowed down.

The soaring flames erupted from the crater.

Luo Chen flew out of the cave dwelling slowly and placed himself in it, not only not feeling scorching hot but feeling exceptionally comfortable.

As if he were born an elf in the fire.

With a thought, he was like an emperor in the fire, able to drive the fire-attribute spiritual energy wandering between heaven and earth at will.

Not just driving!

Even, he could convert spiritual energy of other attributes into fire-attribute ones.

Luo Chen gradually understood why Soul Transformation great powers could change the weather and fight freely anywhere.

Comprehending the true meaning of laws is equivalent to possessing the authority to control the corresponding laws.

Yuan Qi is the collection of all spiritual energy, and by driving it with the authority of laws, conversion can be carried out.

Like when the great power Heize stepped onto Cangwu Mountain, the rain was pouring.

Like when Li Canghai appeared on the battlefield of the Ice Extreme Palace, the wind and clouds turned into countless array patterns.

Or like when Sovereign Qixia descended on the Mingyuan Holy Land, everything in the world turned into a golden sea of fire, and even the Nether Abyss boiled for her.

Luo Chen is currently limited by his own strength and realm, and cannot achieve that degree yet.

But changing a corner of the land is not a difficult thing.

Most importantly, being in it, Luo Chen gradually realized why Nascent Soul cultivators who comprehend the true meaning of laws can have cultivation speeds far exceeding ordinary people!

"Spiritual energy after attribute conversion can also be absorbed and refined, so one does not have to be restricted by spiritual veins. As long as the quantity is sufficient, the world is so big that one can cultivate anywhere."

"The efficiency here, even if it cannot compare to directly refining the world's Yuan Qi, greatly saves the troublesome process of screening spiritual energy of corresponding attributes."

"Not only that..."

While lost in thought, Luo Chen pinched the seal.

There was a fire phoenix soaring left and right, and a fire dragon lowering its head from the sky.

Amidst the circling of the dragon and phoenix, there was vaguely a terrifying power to destroy everything.

Can the true meaning of laws also be integrated into spells?

Does that count as a divine ability?

The mutation of Dan Mountain caused a great commotion. It instantly attracted the attention of many people up and down the Luotian Sect.

One figure after another rushed toward Dan Mountain, with no lack of worry in their eyes.

President Sima Hui Niang, who was confined, also received news from the disciple Yao Mingyue, making her anxious to break through Luo Chen's array and go out to see Luo Chen's safety.

Wang Yuan, Especially Ling Fengzi, Bai Meiling, and even the Black King, these four arrived at the scene for the first time.

However, before they could get close, a ethereal voice came.

"No matter, it's just that this sect has gained something from cultivation."

"Retreat!"

Everyone was extremely surprised.

What kind of cultivation would cause such a big commotion?

Earth fire erupted, magma sprayed, wind and clouds gathered, dragon and phoenix circled, and even though everyone was more than ten miles away from Dan Mountain, they all felt somewhat uncomfortable all over.

Especially Especially Ling Fengzi, who felt it the most deeply.

He tentatively released his own Nascent Soul domain, but found that he couldn't control the heaven and earth spiritual energy at all, and instead felt scorching hot all over.

This discovery made him shocked.

"Could it be that Qi Qi Shixiong Luo has comprehended another true meaning of laws?"

Wang Yuan did not focus on Qi cultivation, so he didn't understand the horror of it, and asked curiously from the side: "Does that mean Luo Chen has now comprehended two true meanings of laws?"

Especially Ling Fengzi's expression was trance-like, muttering: "For an ordinary person to comprehend one true meaning of laws in the Nascent Soul realm is already a heaven-defying genius. Qi Qi Shixiong Luo now possesses dual true meanings, I fear he is the only one in the world. Once he steps into the late Nascent Soul stage, I fear the title of the number one person under Soul Transformation will change hands again."

Number one person under Soul Transformation?

Hearing this title, the Black King was rarely silent.

He had faced the Demon Emperor Master Qing Shuang head-on and deeply knew how powerful the other party was.

Can the master who comprehends two true meanings be mentioned in the same breath as him?

He didn't know.

At this moment, he was curious that the voice just now didn't seem to come from the master on Dan Mountain.

"Is it some split soul?"

At the same time.

In a beautiful snowy mountain named "Heavenly Mountain", Luo Chen's split soul escaped from the Dust-Fate Immortal Mirror and looked toward Dan Mountain from afar.

"The main body has finally broken through!"

"After digesting this gain, the Dao practice will inevitably advance greatly, and the days of leaving the Alchemy Saint Blessed Land are numbered."

"Next, it's just my side."

Muttering, the split soul dissipated slowly and escaped into the Dust-Fate Immortal Mirror again.

"Daoist Canglong, shall we rest here tonight?"

The green-shirted man who looked middle-aged suggested, but his eyes looked at the woman who was bright-eyed and graceful, like a snow lotus on the Heavenly Mountain.

Canglong nodded and did not refuse this suggestion.

It was just that after entering the guest room, she turned to close the door.

The green-shirted man leaned against the door, hesitating: "Han has some confusion in cultivation and wants to discuss it with you, Daoist; I don't know if it's convenient?"

Canglong smiled slightly, shaking her head gently but firmly: "It's late, Daoist should rest early! If you have any questions, let's talk tomorrow."

Subsequently, she slowly closed the great door.

Han Zhan was given the cold shoulder, his expression unhappy.

This was different from what Master said before leaving the sect?

Didn't they say the ice fortress suffered heavy losses in the exploration of the Lingkong Secret Realm and urgently needed to seek external allies?

Sending Fairy Canglong out to travel the Eastern Wasteland with him also had the idea of greatly promoting the relationship between the two and forming a Daoist couple.

In common terms, it was marriage!

However, all the way, passing through more than a dozen great domains, although Fairy Canglong behaved very gently, that gentleness was full of politeness that kept people at a distance.

"Can we really only be friends and not Daoist companions?"

After Han Zhan was angry, he was quite unwilling.

Among the women he had seen, there were quite a few powerful ones, but few were as mysterious as Canglong, full of infinite yearning and exploration.

Like a rare treasure in the deep sea, like a snow lotus on the Heavenly Mountain, mysterious and clean, lonely and self-cleansing.

In his disappointment, Han Zhan returned to his room.

He did not let that disappointment affect himself, quickly discarding distracting thoughts, and insisted on cultivating with the help of the not-so-rich spiritual energy of the inn.

In the middle of the night, there was a knock on the door.

Han Zhan woke up, swept his spiritual sense out, and found it was Canglong.

He was happy in his heart, thinking the other party had changed her mind, and opened the door immediately.

Canglong stood outside, pretty and standing, and seeing Han Zhan, said in a low voice: "There is a good show to watch, do you want to go?"

Han Zhan was stunned, understanding that he had misunderstood, but his expression did not show it, and he nodded, following immediately.

Two figures leaped, disappearing into the night.

Not long after, they appeared in a mass grave.

Several figures surrounded a young man in a black robe.

They were saying things like "hand over the treasure".

Such a scene was self-evident.

It was the most common drama of robbing treasures halfway in the cultivation world.

So this was the good show Canglong mentioned?

Han Zhan felt somewhat bored, but instantly discovered one thing.

"Why did she discover it before me?"

"My Luotian Sect is best at soul-refining techniques, and I have already entered the "Soul-Splitting Art", and my soul foundation is deep enough to look down on my peers, yet I am not as good as her?"

While he was puzzled, the battle in the mass grave had already broken out amidst disagreement.

That black-robed man fought one against many, but did not fall behind at all.

A long saber was driven with ease, and every slash often set off a bloody storm.

Seeing that they couldn't take down the black-robed man, the few people who besieged him shouted:

"The point is tricky, form a great array!"

In the blink of an eye, several people stood in various positions, occupying various directions, their magic power pulling each other, forming a great array.

The black-robed man smiled grimly, "Ning thought that Eastern Wasteland cultivators were different from others, but it turns out they are also so impolite! Since that's the case, then you all go to die together!"

As he spoke, layers of black energy surged from the Ning-surnamed cultivator.

That black energy was domineering, and with just a few impacts, the array formed by the crowd was shattered.

He himself merged with the magic treasure long saber, and between left and right collisions, the number of souls under the saber increased continuously.

This battle was declared over.

The few remaining people fled toward the rear in terror.

The Ning-surnamed cultivator was full of killing intent and chased after them directly.

Just as he passed a treetop, his body stopped suddenly, and he slashed back with his saber.

The majestic saber energy directly split the big tree, which was thick enough for three or five people to hug, in two.

A brilliant snow-white sword light spilled out, colliding violently with that saber energy.

Boom!

The Ning-surnamed cultivator narrowed his eyes, looking at the two who revealed their figures.

"Are you also here to seek the treasure on this seat?"

Canglong flicked her sleeves to remove the dust around, "We are not the oriole behind, Ning Daoist doesn't need to be so aggressive."

The Ning-surnamed cultivator raised his eyebrows, "Jin Dan early stage?"

"To be able to take my saber at this realm, report your name!"

Canglong bowed, "Yuding Ice Fortress, Heavenly Mountain Canglong, may I ask the Daoist's name?"

The Ning-surnamed cultivator frowned, "Yuding Ice Fortress? Never heard of it! In the North Sea, Yuanmo Sect Ning Yuzhuo, I have remembered your name, see you later!"

After speaking, he fled.

This was to chase and kill the two who had just fled.

Han Zhan breathed a sigh of relief: "This person has such great killing intent!"

Canglong shook her head, "It's not just killing intent; the power on him is quite powerful, I fear it is the magic energy cultivated by the orthodox Yuanmo lineage of the Yuanmo Sect."

Han Zhan was surprised, "Orthodox Yuanmo disciples, why come to my Eastern Wasteland?"

Canglong didn't know either, just thinking she had watched a good show tonight.

Just as the two were about to go back, a grand voice sounded from the city.

"Magic thief, how dare you be rampant!"

A golden bowl floated in the sky.

Amidst the bursts of Buddhist chanting, the Yuanmo Sect's Ning Yuzhuo, who was still arrogant just now, was directly sucked in.

Canglong looked at this scene in a daze, only feeling that this trip to the Eastern Wasteland could end here.

"A mere Jin Dan cultivator can roam a continent without hindrance, but wanting to roam freely is too arrogant."

"Han Daoist, let's part ways here!" (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 874 =====
