Chapter 148: Chapter139 - Asrasys Burning Flame

After entering inside it, darkness appeared before Kritos's eyes for a moment, and in the next instance, a scarlet red light flooded his eyes. An extremely red-hot wave of fire attacked him and forced him to utilize qi to protect his body hastily.

After protecting his body, Kritos finally had the time to size up his surroundings. Immediately, astonishment colored his eyes because what appeared before him was actually a sea of fire, which was where the wave of heat from before had originated from.

"These flames should be illusionary, right?" Kritos furrowed his eyebrows.

'This should be a great formation, and it seems to be rather well made,' Kritos thought to himself.

Upon looking at the flames rising from the sea of lava, Kritos shook his head. It was clear that he didn't have any methods to cross this vast bridge made of lava.

Chk!!!

Suddenly, he heard a rapacious sound from a distance. The voice seems to be made out by a human.

Kritos's gaze hastily shifted to look. Sure enough, he saw a few figures resisting the waves of fire within the flaming sea. Those figures turned out to be Lu Long, Wang, and the rest.

"They really have frightful treasures to protect themselves," All of them were protecting their body from the intense heat and flames of lava through their family treasures.

It seems that they will not take much time to cross the lava bridge. Moreover, each of them cooperates with each other through various means.

Still, they were many times the sudden sea of the fire pushed them. In fact, they all were struggling to pass the bridge quickly.

"I can't pass this lava bridge through ordinary means. The temperature of these flames is much higher than ordinary fire."

Even the flames produced by Kritos were not comparable to these dark red lava flames.

Even if all the surroundings were an illusion, Kritos was sure that the flames were real.

Due to multiple times' use of Heavenly Glare Trait, Kritos seems to have undergone a vast understanding of the illusions. Simple illusions were nothing in front of Kritos' eyes.

"It looks like I have to create a skill to pass this bridge." 

Kritos observed the surroundings for a bit and thought about the skill that would help him pass the lava bridge.

Unlike the other times he created skills, Kritos appears to understand something through the help of his high fire affinity.

Normally, those with a high affinity for any element could easily understand the foundation of that particular element.

Kritos doesn't know the exact level of his elemental affinity, but System once told him that it is on the level which can't be measured by ordinary means. 

While observing the surroundings, Kritos unconsciously activated the Heavenly Glare trait.

He continuously stares at the dancing fires in the middle of the lava bed without blinking his eyes.

Soon, He realized something!

Why is the fire capable of melting everything?

And why sometimes it strengthens the metals and various objects?

Why are some flames different from others?

A sudden realization of fire!

The Finest steel has to go through the hottest fire to become the most rigid and sharpest steel!

The most destructive weapon in the world is the human soul that goes through the nirvana of fires!

Human Soul!

The soul that tempers itself with the nirvana fires.

Unknowingly, Kritos immerse in the enlightenment of finding the truth about the existence of fire.

He has a dream. Dream of creating a fire. A fire that would burn till ages.

Asrasya Burning Flame!

As Kritos thought about the name of the mysterious flame, he saw it in his dream. A sound awakens his consciousness.

[Ding...]

[2000 FP is required for the Creation of Asrasys Burning Flame skill. As the Host has the understanding of the true fire through the supreme enlightenment, only 10% of total FP is needed for the Creation of this skill.]

[200 FP is used for the Creation of the Asrasys Burning Flame skill.]

[Creation of Asrasys Burning Flame skill is completed!]

[Asrasys Burning Flame (D): The flame that incinerates everything in its path, including the spiritual soul. (Growth)]

[Due to forming an entirely new fire that has the potential to compete with the top five flames in the Cosmos. The Host is rewarded with a Veteran Fighter Experience pack(50 years)]

As soon as he heard the system voice in his head, Kritos snapped out from the unknown dream world.

"Asrasys Burning Flame! When did I create this skill?"

Unbeknownst to Kritos, he unconsciously used the system Skill creation Tag and created a skill in his dream.

Soon, the System told him about the reason for the created skill.

"Ahh! So, I received enlightenment upon understanding the true fire and unconsciously created a skill. Are you sure, System?"

Is it that easy to create such an extraordinary skill upon enlightenment?

Even if someone gains enlightenment due to their hard work or luck, no one can ever replicate their understanding into a skill in a short time. Most enlightened cultivators take decades to digest the understanding and create a skill from it.

Kritos has a feeling that he is only able to create such an overpowered skill due to the goodwill of the System.

Creating a skill that usually costs an astonishing 2000 FP in only 200 FP is too shocking for Kritos.

Nonetheless, it didn't concern Kritos as he only gained from it. 

'Let's see what this skill is capable of,' Kritos was eager to see the skill that could even compete with top fires in the Cosmos.

[Asrasys Burning Flame (D): A newly formed living Flame that endlessly evolves upon consumption of the different fires. It resides inside the soul of its Host and tends to increase the strength of the soul. 

~Each consumption of a different type of flames slightly increases host cultivation

~100% increase in Fire-based skill

~50% Fire Resistance 

"Ahh! This skill is already too powerful as a D rank skill. What would happen when it further evolves?" 

Thinking about the future potential of this skill, Kritos couldn't help but get excited.

Moreover, with this skill, Kritos can easily pass through the lava bridge without any difficulties. 

"Let's see if I can devour the entire sea of fire with this skill."
