Chapter 945: Smelting Divine Demon Flames

Buzz!

Just when Jiang Yi’s eyes were full of confusion, the restrictions in the secret cultivation room lit up before a divine sense sweeping in. A voice sounded: “My Lord, I am Tang Sheng, the Tang Clan’s consecrator. May I ask what happened? Why did such a powerful aura leak just now?”

“En?”

Jiang Yi woke up and hurriedly sent a voice transmission: “Consecrator Tang, my aura accidentally went out when I cultivated just now. I am so sorry to disturb everyone.”

“No problem!”

The divine senses swept over Jiang Yi and stopped for a while. It seemed that he was surprised by the fact that Jiang Yi only appeared to be at the first level of the Heaven Monarch Realm. However, the divine senses retreated swiftly, and the voice transmission quickly sounded again: “My Lord, please continue with your cultivation. I am sorry to disturb you. Tang Sheng would love to befriend my lord. Shall we have a drink some time?”

“Haha, alright!”

Jiang Yi sent a voice transmission out. The restrictions glowed and opened again. Jiang Yi then wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and mumbled suspiciously, “Am I really able to trigger this thing?”

Just now, he completely refined the Smelting Divine Furnace and established a spiritual connection with this ancient artifact. All the information about it was known to him.

It was called the Smelting Divine Furnace and was a cardinal treasure made by Zhan Tianwang, an ancient great general. He was a peak-stage Demigod martial expert and reached the level of nine stars. The dao pattern he cultivated was the fire element. He was addressed as the ‘Fire God’.

This Smelting Divine Furnace was the cardinal treasure that was always by his side. He once conquered one million great demons and killed countless Demon Sovereigns. He was also one of the top three martial experts in the ancient great clans.

“Sky General Palace, Sky God Palace… Sky King Palace? Are the other two great martial experts buried in the other two great halls? Are there two more powerful ancient artifacts in the halls?”

Jiang Yi was tempted. There was some information about the furnace’s master in the Smelting Divine Furnace, which might be left by Zhang Tianwang. The message in the front was of no importance; the important stuff was on the back.

It showed that there were three dao patterns of different strengths congealed in the Smelting Divine Furnace. Each dao pattern required a certain level of strength to trigger it. They could release three flames in total which were of different strengths: the first one released Nine Yang True Flames, the second one released the Nirvana Flames, and the third one released the Smelting Divine Demon Flames.

The message was clear. Nine Yang True Flames could kill peak-stage Heaven Monarch Realm martial experts. Without powerful defensive divine skills, even five-star martial experts would be doomed. The Nirvana Flames were much stronger. It was able to kill martial experts of seven stars and below, including the Demigods.

As for Smelting Divine Demon Flames, they were even more terrible. Back then, Zhang Tianwang used the Smelting Divine Demon Flames to kill a few Demon Sovereigns that were comparable to nine-star martial experts and achieved the supreme prestige of the Fire God.

Ss, ss—!

Jiang Yi carefully sorted the information in his mind and couldn’t help gasping with amazement. This treasure was too powerful that no spirit-connected cardinal treasure could match it.

What kind of spirit-connected cardinal treasure enabled Jiang Yi to have a chance to kill nine-star martial experts?

“This isn’t right!”

He soon realized that even if the ancient artifact was powerful—if he couldn’t trigger it, he couldn’t kill any martial expert. Besides, the reason that Zhang Tianwang managed to kill nine-star martial artists was that he himself was at the nine-star level. Moreover, he cultivated the fire-element dao pattern. Others might not be able to do so when releasing the Smelting Divine Demon Flames… unless the person was also at the nine-star level as well.

Nonetheless, Jiang Yi was exhilarated. At the same time, he secretly reminded himself that he could never expose his identity and this treasure. Otherwise, he would be hunted down by countless martial experts. Among the top ten cardinal treasures in this world, the first seven pieces were all ancient artifacts.

Is my strength sufficient to trigger the Smelting Divine Furnace?

A question appeared on Jiang Yi’s mind again. The message he got from the ancient artifact didn’t specify the realm that he needed to be in order to activate the furnace. He didn’t dare to try it on the Heaven Fate Ship right now. He would be chased by the Tang Clansmen if he burned a hole in the Heaven Fate Ship.

“I will wait when I am outside the Flood Martial City.”

Jiang Yi tried his best to suppress the inner excitement. Even though the treasure was good, his strength was too weak. Even if he could barely release the Nine Yang True Flames, he would never be able to trigger the Nirvana Flames—let alone the Smelting Divine Demon Flames.

Jiang Yi was certain that the Nine Yang True Flames could burn a peak-stage Heaven Monarch Realm absolute expert. The Witch God’s Heaven-Extinguishing Inferno sorcery was recorded. The highest level of this sorcery art was the Nine Yang True Flames, which were capable of killing peak-stage Heaven Monarch Realm absolute experts.

“I must cultivate. The essence force is required to trigger any treasure. My essence force realm is far too weak. Only when I increase my realm, then I will be able to trigger this treasure. I will definitely go to the one-thousand-fold secret cultivation room of the Tang Clan some time and try to raise my essence force realm to the peak-stage Heaven Monarch Realm. If I can release the Nine Yang Sky Flames and Nirvana Flames as I please, I will at least be able to kill any Heaven Monarch and any ordinary Demigod! Alas… I don’t know whether my current realm can trigger the Nine Yang Sky Flames. Help me, God.”

Jiang Yi prayed secretly. As long as he could trigger the Smelting Divine Furnace and release the Nine Yang True Flames, he would be able to kill the group of martial experts around Wu Ni with ease. He let out a deep breath and cleared his mind of all distracting thoughts. Then, he entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man. While he was cultivating the essence force, he began studying the astral winds.

Chi! Chi!

He spent the night in the wilderness near the Buddha Thearch City and absorbed some astral winds. At this moment, he moved his hands slightly and released dozens of astral winds. He continued to circulate the Nameless Divine Art, controlled the astral winds to flow around him, and flew slowly.

“The astral winds can be turned into blade, shield, armor, and it could kill from ten thousand miles away…”

He was reminded of the words of the mysterious old man and how he congealed Astral Winds Divine Shield the same way that he congealed the Thunder Fire Divine Shield. An idea occurred to him. He controlled the astral Winds to twist and fuse with one another. He was trying to congeal other ways of attack.

Since the astral winds could congeal into a divine shield, they would naturally be fused together and form other means of attack such as a sword, a sharp knife, a spear.

The astral winds had great destructive power. At night, the astral winds were terribly thick at high altitude. Even ordinary Demigods didn’t dare to go up, which suggested that the more the astral winds, the stronger the power of attack!

If it was just one wisp of astral winds, the divine shield of a normal Heaven Monarch could resist it. However, if many astral winds attacked at the same time, even a Demigod couldn’t handle the impact!

Since that was the case—if Jiang Yi fused a lot of astral winds together and easily turned them into a machete, a sword, or a sharp arrow; the power must be terribly strong. He could kill any average martial expert with ease!

“Astral winds are indeed the most formidable energy in the Stellarsky Domain; exactly where did it come from? Why am I able to absorb astral winds? What is the secret of this Nameless Divine Art?”

Jiang Yi was amazed in secret. The mysterious Elder was right to say that he had a precious body, but he didn’t know how to use it. He sighed in his heart before concentrating on fusing the astral winds. He didn’t expect to kill enemies from tens of thousands of miles away as his soul spirit was too weak. He could only control the astral winds within three kilometers. Beyond this, the astral winds were out of his control.

“That’s right! Soul spirit!”

He suddenly woke up on the thought of his soul spirit. There might be some strange spirit herbs in his Ancient Divine Essence Ring. They were placed with the Fire-Snake Orchid and were obtained in the Purgatory Ruin. He would find someone to identify the ingredient of these spirit herbs. It would be perfect if there were soul spirit herbs.

Chi! Chi!

Inside the secret cultivation room, dozens of shapeless astral winds flowed briskly. Sometimes, they were apart; sometimes, they entangled together. They surrounded Jiang Yi and flowed quickly as though dozens of happy small fish. Jiang Yi didn’t think further and started to concentrate on studying the astral winds.
