Chapter 360: Overbearing

Red flames steamed the clouds, and the sea of fire surged.

The two Fire Qilins, condensed from Earth Mother Qi, had no violent aura around them. It seemed that as long as Hua Changxi didn't move, they could lie down until the end of time.

Lu Zhenting said that the key to opening the Fire Qilin Pavilion was in the bellies of the two Fire Qilins. To get the key, either the two Fire Qilins voluntarily hand it over, or use thunderous means to force them to hand it over.

But if thunderous means were to be used to force them, Hua Changxi thought that this opportunity would not be her turn, as the Xuanyuan Five Generals would have done so long ago.

Plus what Qin Feng said, the Fire Qilin transformed from Earth Mother Qi can neither be smashed nor destroyed. In this way, to get the key, it seems that one can only think of ways to make the Fire Qilin voluntarily hand it over.

Make the Fire Qilin voluntarily hand over the key...

Hua Changxi narrowed her eyes and pondered. Can the Fire Qilin transformed from Earth Mother Qi be subdued? If both Fire Qilins surrendered to her, could she make them hand over the keys?

Hua Changxi felt more and more that this method was feasible, but how to make the Fire Qilin surrender to her?

Fire Qilin...

Fire...

Hua Changxi thought of the "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor" divine ability. By performing this divine ability, all flames existing in the world could become her "nutrients."

Hua Changxi looked at the two Fire Qilins with burning eyes. Earth Mother Qi sounds like an extraordinary thing. If she performed "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor" to absorb these two Fire Qilins, she thought she would definitely benefit a lot, right?

It just so happened that after inheriting the "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor" divine ability, she hadn't really performed it in battle yet.

Let's take these two Fire Qilins to practice!

Hua Changxi immediately performed "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor." The first step of the divine ability was to build a flame gravitational field centered on herself.

As soon as the divine ability started, a flame vortex appeared at her dantian.

The moment the flame vortex appeared, the two Fire Qilins that were lying down without moving all raised their heads to look over, and then stood up restlessly.

The devouring power of "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor" was a fire source siphon that took in all fire.

As long as it was "fire," it would be siphoned over by the flame vortex. Once it entered the gravitational range, it would be forcibly stripped of its original form, turning into fire threads, fire dots, or fire streams, ignoring spatial barriers, and surging towards Hua Changxi like a hundred rivers returning to the sea.

In an instant, the flames and fire spiritual energy in the fire domain all gathered towards Hua Changxi.

The two Fire Qilins, feeling a powerful pulling force acting on them, retreated one after another, avoiding to the edge of the fire domain space.

The second step of "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor" was energy conversion and purification.

When the flames in the fire domain surged into the dantian vortex, Hua Changxi perceived the impurity of the fire spiritual energy. If it was not converted and purified, absorbing this impure fire spiritual energy would contaminate the dantian at best, and damage the foundation at worst.

But under the action of the divine ability, these impure fire spiritual energies underwent the process of "disassembly-purification-reconstruction."

The impurities, violent auras, or strange energies contained in the flames would be thoroughly stripped away, leaving only the purest fire-attribute energy.

As the flames in the fire domain were continuously swallowed, converted, and absorbed, Hua Changxi discovered that the fire spiritual root in her body was like a river of molten gold, and in every drop of blood, there seemed to be tens of thousands of fire seedlings burning.

The more flames absorbed, the upper limit of spiritual power that the fire spiritual root could accommodate would also be widened, and even the devouring range and conversion efficiency of "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor" itself would be improved.

At this moment, she seemed to have become a walking flame furnace.

What made Hua Changxi most excited was that the cultivation bottleneck that had been unable to break through seemed to be loosening.

Having this major discovery, she immediately performed the "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor" divine ability to the extreme.

Outside the fire domain, the Xuanyuan Five Generals watched this scene intently.

Lu Zhenting looked at Qin Feng: "Is Hua Changxi absorbing the fire spiritual energy in the fire domain?"

Qin Feng was a bit uncertain: "Seems like it."

But not all fire spiritual energy can be absorbed and refined for one's own use.

The Fire Qilin is transformed from Earth Mother Qi, and the fire domain performed by the Fire Qilin connects to the Earth Qi. The Earth Qi is very impure. Hua Changxi should be able to perceive it, so why does she still dare to absorb it so wantonly?

Lu Zhenting also saw some problems: "The fire domain space connects to the Earth Qi. Unless the Fire Qilin voluntarily lifts it, it is an existence that cannot be broken or destroyed. Let's see how long Hua Changxi can hold on."

Time slipped away bit by bit. Half an hour later, the Xuanyuan Five Generals were a bit uneasy, and the two Fire Qilins in the fire domain were also pawing their hooves restlessly.

At this moment, the manes on the two Fire Qilins were all leaning towards Hua Changxi. Not only did the flames on the hair disperse, but the red luster on the scales also dimmed a lot.

The two Fire Qilins no longer had their previous laziness, replaced by a full battle intent.

Qin Feng was speechless: "How strong must Hua Changxi's physical body be to be able to absorb so much impure fire spiritual energy."

Lu Zhenting frowned: "It's definitely not just simple absorption. Hua Changxi must have performed means we don't know."

In the fire domain, the two Fire Qilins felt the fire spiritual energy on their bodies continuously surging towards Hua Changxi, and their bodies actually showed signs of fading. They couldn't sit still anymore, and one after another, they launched a fierce attack on Hua Changxi.

As the Fire Qilins ran, every step they took shook the fire domain and vibrated it.

Looking at the attacking Fire Qilins, Hua Changxi had no fear, but was eager to try. She was worried that she couldn't perform the third step of "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor," and the opportunity came.

The third step of the divine ability, strengthening and repairing, supporting the operation endlessly.

The fire energy after conversion and purification can not only repair the damaged physical body and spiritual power, but also make up for the consumption in battle. Even broken meridians and exhausted spiritual power can be quickly restored under the nourishment of pure energy.

Hua Changxi summoned the Floating Light Sword and launched an attack before the Fire Qilin rushed up.

In an instant, a battle that shook the earth broke out in the fire domain.

The Xuanyuan Five Generals were shocked when they saw the battle break out.

The strength of the two Fire Qilins is so strong!

Whether it was the Earth Qilin that fought Chu Junyi, or the Wood Qilin that fought the Dongfang brothers, the combat power they exploded was not as fierce as the Fire Qilin seen now!

Lu Zhenting: "The strength of the Qilin beast is determined according to the strength of the challenger. It seems that Hua Changxi's strength is above Chu Junyi and the Dongfang brothers!"

"Clang~"

In the fire domain, Hua Changxi slashed a sword on the Fire Qilin, and the scales on the Fire Qilin instantly cracked.

However, the next moment, the scales recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Bang~"

The Fire Qilin kicked Hua Changxi away. Just as Hua Changxi stabilized her figure, another Fire Qilin approached.

Under the siege of the two Fire Qilins, her spiritual power consumption was extremely fast, but with the assistance of the "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor" divine ability, her dantian was always full, and her combat power was always at its peak.

Outside the fire domain, the Xuanyuan Five Generals had been silent for a long time.

Hua Changxi had been fighting fiercely under the siege of the two Fire Qilins for several hours. Not only was there no weakness, but she was fighting more and more bravely.

The five were all thinking, if they entered the fire domain, how long could they hold on under the two Fire Qilins?

After a day and a night of fierce fighting, Hua Changxi's eyes were shining. Performing the "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor" divine ability, she really felt like she was the master of flames.

The fire domain was originally the home field of the Fire Qilin, but she felt that this was her territory.

With the supplement of Earth Mother Qi, the Fire Qilin would not be smashed or destroyed, but being beaten by Hua Changxi, the two Fire Qilins became more and more wilted.

After being knocked away by Hua Changxi with the Floating Light Sword again, the two Fire Qilins didn't attack anymore, and turned into the previous lying flat and rotting posture.

Seeing this, although Hua Changxi didn't fight enough, she was thinking about the Earth Mother Qi, so she quickly performed the "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor" divine ability to the extreme.

The Fire Qilins no longer resisted, and the fire spiritual energy on their bodies was continuously swallowed and absorbed into Hua Changxi's body.

The fire spiritual energy on the Fire Qilins contained more earthy yellow gas than the previously absorbed fire spiritual energy. It was a bit like Profound Yellow Qi, but heavier than Profound Yellow Qi.

"Is this Earth Mother Qi?"

As the Earth Mother Qi surged into her body, Hua Changxi clearly felt that the foundation of her physical body was being reshaped and reinforced.

Let's put it this way, if Hua Changxi's physical body was a small mud man before, then after absorbing the Earth Mother Qi, she had already become a small iron man.

The improvement of the foundation raised the upper limit of her physical body by a large margin.

This made Hua Changxi very happy.

Outside the fire domain, the Xuanyuan Five Generals did not relax because Hua Changxi and the Fire Qilin had a truce, but were more serious than before.

"The real test has begun."

In the fire domain, although the fire spiritual energy on the Fire Qilins was continuously swallowed and absorbed by Hua Changxi, and the Qilin body was fading, the fire spiritual energy could not be absorbed, and there was no sign that the Fire Qilin could be subdued.

Seeing this, Hua Changxi frowned.

If it goes on like this, I'm afraid I will never get the key, right?

Another day and night passed, and Hua Changxi ended the performance of "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor."

No other reason, her cultivation bottleneck did not conflict, and her physical body also reached the capacity limit.

Trapped in the fire domain, Hua Changxi couldn't just waste time and do nothing, so she could only launch an attack on the Fire Qilin again.

Because she had a certain understanding of the strength of the Fire Qilin, this time, she didn't use the Floating Light Sword, but prepared to rely on her own strength to have a real spar with the Fire Qilin.

The Fire Qilin is transformed from Earth Mother Qi, which is Earth Fire. She cultivates the Dao of Fire. She wants to see the duel between fire and fire, what kind of scene it is.

"Bang!"

The next battle between Hua Changxi and the Fire Qilin was covered in flames. In the eyes of the Xuanyuan Five Generals, it was like two groups of flames colliding violently.

Two groups of flames, collide, separate, collide again, separate again.

"Bang!"

During the fierce battle, Hua Changxi suddenly jumped onto the back of a Fire Qilin, rode on it, and fought fiercely with the other Fire Qilin.

"Hmm?"

During the fierce battle, Hua Changxi noticed an unusual scene.

The flames on her body and the flames on the Fire Qilin she was riding actually showed signs of fusion.

Because of the fusion of flames, she actually "saw" the key in the belly of the Fire Qilin!!!

In a daze, Hua Changxi didn't pay attention and was knocked away by the other Fire Qilin.

Hua Changxi landed and slid a long distance in the sea of fire before stabilizing her figure.

Next, truce.

Hua Changxi sat cross-legged between the two Fire Qilins. She was recalling the battle scene just now. The fusion of flames actually allowed her to see through the Fire Qilin and see the key in the Qilin's belly.

What is the principle of this?

"Can't use violence to take the key, the purpose is for fusion?"

"Fusion?"

Hua Changxi shook her head. It was not a complete fusion, but a fusion of "you have me, I have you, harmony but difference."

"What exactly is this trying to test?"

Hua Changxi didn't think of "Fire Virtue" at all. Although she couldn't figure it out, she had to get the key.

With her guess, Hua Changxi performed "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor" again. After the consumed spiritual power was restored, she immediately raised her hands flat. On her palms, the flames were like fire pillars gushing out, winding towards the two Fire Qilins at the same time.

The flame pillars had no aggressiveness, just a simple approach, so the two Fire Qilins didn't counterattack.

After the flame pillars and the flames on the Fire Qilins began to "fuse," Hua Changxi penetrated the flames and "saw" the two keys, one black and one white, hidden in the bellies of the two Fire Qilins.

Hua Changxi showed joy. Is it possible to infiltrate the flame pillars into the Fire Qilin's body and take the key?

Hua Changxi tried to do so, but this behavior angered the Fire Qilin and triggered the Fire Qilin's counterattack.

Finally, after many attempts, Hua Changxi knew that she could not infiltrate the flames into the Fire Qilin's body to take the key directly, but she could "press" the key out little by little by "massaging" the Fire Qilin's body.

This discovery was really...

Hua Changxi didn't know how to react. She couldn't understand why there would be such a test?

Since she found the method, Hua Changxi originally planned to do so, preparing to give the Fire Qilin a good "massage" so that the Fire Qilin would spit out the key.

However, as "Ten Thousand Fires Facing the Ancestor" was continuously performed, she absorbed more and more Earth Mother Qi, causing some abnormalities in her body.

The most obvious one was the dantian. Under her internal vision, she saw that her dantian sea was "breathing" with a regular rhythm, as if something was about to break out of the sea.

This immediately reminded her of the battle with the "Great Sun Divine Flame" in Tang Gu, and the Zhu Que spiritual shadow that rushed out of her body.

Was it because she absorbed the Earth Mother Qi that the Zhu Que bloodline was strengthened again?

Hua Changxi was a bit worried, worried that the Xuanyuan Five Generals would know that she possessed the Zhu Que bloodline.

She didn't know if Dongfang Hao revealed his Azure Dragon bloodline when he opened the Wood Qilin Pavilion, but she didn't want to reveal that she possessed the Zhu Que bloodline in the Xuanyuan Prefecture!

Once the Zhu Que bloodline was exposed, her identity as the Hall Master of Lingguang Hall would most likely not be hidden.

Just a Peak Master of Danyuan Peak had caused her so much trouble, she didn't want to add more trouble to herself.

Looking at the two Fire Qilins, Hua Changxi narrowed her eyes. The seven-colored strange fire in her dantian gathered in her palms with spiritual power. When the seven-colored flames attached to a Fire Qilin, the strange fire suddenly fused and generated the Great Sun Divine Flame.

The fire pillar of the Great Sun Divine Flame forcibly penetrated into the Fire Qilin's body, penetrated its defense, and then, without waiting for the Fire Qilin to counterattack, took away the key.

"Woo~"

The painful roar of the Fire Qilin sounded. The Fire Qilin, which was originally like a real living creature, faded visibly to the naked eye, and finally turned into a group of earthy yellow gas, which disappeared into the sea of fire.

The fire domain space also began to shake and vibrate violently, as if it would collapse at any time.

This scene made Hua Changxi stunned, but the next moment she came back to her senses and quickly launched an attack on the other Fire Qilin.

At this moment, she only had one thought in her heart, which was to get the other key before the fire domain space collapsed.

The Great Sun Divine Flame fire pillar was issued again. This time, because the other Fire Qilin was alert, it was quite difficult to get the key.

Finally, it was Hua Changxi who jumped onto the back of the Fire Qilin again, forcibly suppressing the Fire Qilin while burning through the Fire Qilin's body with the Great Sun Divine Flame, before she managed to get the key.

The key was in hand, the Fire Qilin turned into earthy yellow Earth Mother Qi and disappeared into the sea of fire. The next moment, the fire domain space collapsed.

Xuanyuan Five Generals: "..."

None of the five expected that Hua Changxi would use such violent means to take the key.

Lu Zhenting: "This method is too overbearing!"

To obtain what one wants, using destructive means, how can there be any virtue! ===== CHAPTER 361 =====
