Chapter 122 - Ten Years

The towering great hall was like an ancient and desolate giant. It stood upright between the heaven and earth, emitting a threatening aura that made people only look up at it and not able to look at it.

A sea of fire raged around the grand hall. The sea of fire burned, but it didn't change even after hundreds of millions of years. The grand palace was protected at the center of the sea of fire.

On the stone bridge in the center of the sea of fire, Li Yi still sat cross-legged, and the surrounding flames of Three Evils spiraled as they entered Li Yi's body.

Li Yi frowned slightly, his eyes shut tight, as though he was a motionless statue.

After an unknown period of time, Li Yi exhaled a long breath, and slowly opened his eyes.

Having finally completed the Refining of the Samsara's True Fire, this was something that not just anyone could endure. Fortunately, the results were quite good, Li Yi thought to himself.

Right now, Li Yi could be considered to have completed the Three Evils Primordial Flames from the inside to the outside. His cultivation had already reached the Void-level, and his physical strength had also reached the late stage of Void Transformation.

Li Yi was already completely able to move freely within the Samadhi True Fire and he no longer needed to protect his body with energy.

Li Yi thought: I can explore the great hall and then return home.

Would it really be so smooth?

When the old man above Li Yi saw that Li Yi had finished refining his body, his mouth revealed a slight smile, and with a raise of his right hand, the sea of fire in front of him suddenly changed color, the Samadhi True Fire actually turned dark red.

didn't even know about all of this. He just silently walked forward and continuously observed his surroundings.

Bang!

Suddenly, Li Yi crashed into a wall of fire.

Li Yi was startled, he touched the wall of fire formed by the Samadhi True Fire in disbelief, Li Yi was shocked, how much strength did he need to do this?

Li Yi was silent. After walking to this place, there was actually a barrier, he did not know if it was his master making things difficult for him or if he was torturing him.

The wall of fire in front of him was like the crystallization of condensed flames. It only made the flames look slightly thicker.

Li Yi touched the wall of fire and discovered that it was actually not condensed into a fire crystal, but was extremely soft, as though it was extremely thick water.

Li Yi pondered for a moment, then clenched his right fist, and suddenly smashed it towards the fire wall in front of him. The power contained in his fist was extremely strong, which pushed the Samadhi True Fire a few meters away.

Puff!

An unexpected boom, as though he was using all his strength to hit the water, Li Yi's fists sank into the wall of fire.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

When Li Yi's right fist fell into the wall of fire, he did not expect such a pleasant surprise. Instead, he let out a miserable cry as Li Yi's fist was pulled back even faster than it had been thrown in.

Li Yi cried out miserably, lowering his head to look at his right fist, it was so miserable, in just a moment, his fist had been burnt a circle, revealing the dense white bones inside.

Li Yi immediately channeled all the energy in his body into his fist, and not long later, his fist was completely healed.

Li Yi frowned. Just a moment ago, he could clearly feel that the flames opposite the wall of flames were the Six Concealment Primordial Fire, the flames that were a level higher than the Three Concealed Primordial Fire and also the highest level of energy in the mortal world.

Li Yi did not understand. Before he had come, he had clearly observed that this sea of fire only contained the Samadhi True Fire and there was absolutely no existence of the Samadhi True Flame.

Li Yi once again extended his right fist, but this time, the fist was surrounded by a layer of energy, and Li Yi suddenly punched his fist into the wall of fire. After a while, Li Yi's right fist came out half clenching and half extending, but he actually held a small ball of dark red fire within his fist.

The dark red ball of fire was surrounded by energy within Li Yi's fist, pulsating non-stop, as if it had a mind of its own.

The true flames of the Six Concealment Primordial Flames were indeed the true flames of the Six Concealments Primordial Fire.

Li Yi raised his head, thought for a moment, and laughed!

The Samadhi True Fire refined the body, followed by the Samadhi True Fire. Wasn't this an opportunity? Compared to the slow tempering of his body, which was countless times faster, Li Yi was very optimistic.

Since there was no way out, then he could only move forward. Furthermore, there were no disadvantages at all, and there were many benefits, only that taste made Li Yi unable to help himself from furrowing his brows.

Gritting his teeth, a circle of protective energy appeared around Li Yi and slowly fused into the energy wall.

After fusing into the wall of fire formed by the Samadhi True Fire, Li Yi felt his body sinking, and then becoming lighter, Li Yi entered another sea of fire. It was just that this sea of fire was dark red in color.

Li Yi turned his head to look and the wall of Samadhi True Fire that he had just passed through had actually disappeared. Behind him was also a sea of Samadhi True Fire, and only the black stone bridge under his feet showed that he had come from that place.

Li Yi shook his head and laughed bitterly. In front of this unknown master, he was just like a child.

Once Li Yi entered the sea of flames, he immediately felt a strong pressure. It was a strong impact from the power of the Primordial Flame, the surrounding flames started to attack Li Yi as soon as he entered, the flames burning Li Yi's protective energy made "crackling" sounds.

Li Yi was not in a hurry to continue refining his body. Instead, he looked at his surroundings.

Li Yi felt helpless as he sat down cross-legged. This time, his body tempering was different from last time, last time at least his body was resistant to the Samadhi True Fire, but this time it was the Samadhi True Fire, which was a level higher than the Samadhi True Fire. Li Yi could not help but be nervous.

Li Yi did not retract his protective energy, but only slightly opened up a small opening in the energy layer, and channeled the true flames of Six Concealment into the energy layer to train his body, just like last time when he used the True Samadhi Fire to train his body.

Li Yi only brought in a small ball of the Six Concealment Primordial Fire and sealed the opening of the fire. He was going to slowly temper his body bit by bit, this did not worry him at all.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

The moment his body came into contact with the Primordial Flame, Li Yi let out a miserable cry. It was painful, very painful, and his soul was trembling.

The Six Concealment Primordial Fire and the Three Concealed Primordial Fire were different. had a characteristic that allowed him to attack souls and he understood this point. If he had not cultivated to the Primordial Spirit, Li Yi would not have had the guts to try it.

For cultivators, although the body was very important, after the body was destroyed it was very easy to repair. If the soul was slightly damaged, the heavy ones would lose their souls and the light ones would lose their realm.

In the cultivation world, even if a cultivator specialized in refining their body, at most they would only be able to slowly temper their body with the Samadhi True Fire. On the one hand, the pain emitted from burning the Samadhi True Fire was not something an ordinary person could endure; it was nothing in this aspect.

On the other hand, not only was it unable to isolate the pain that seeped into the soul, but it was also extremely injurious to the soul. This fact was quite taboo to cultivators.

Only Li Yi was so abnormal, a cultivator could actually cultivate to the Immortal Soul stage, and furthermore, he had the Primordial Spirit Qi to improve the primordial spirit soul's essence.

All of these made Li Yi bold enough to use the True Flame to refine his body, but even so, he still had to be careful.

As soon as the Primordial Flame came into contact with Li Yi's body, it made "crackling" sounds and also released a burning smell.

Li Yi frowned, clenching his teeth, he did not make a sound.

Li Yi used the True Samadhi Fire to slowly burn it, slowly healing it. It was much slower than the True Samadhi Fire outside.

Li Yi was not in a hurry. He had a large amount of time and he also understood that it was important for cultivators to have a good foundation. This was the most important foundation for cultivators to advance to a higher realm in the future.

With such good conditions, how could Li Yi not use it wisely?

The old man above Li Yi was extremely satisfied with Li Yi's actions.

Time flew past Li Yi's head as he was recovering and burning. Ignoring everything else, he was like a breeze blowing by.

Li Yi was completely unaware of it, he was completely immersed in training his body. On one hand, he was maintaining his protective energy, but on the other, he was slowly tempering his body.

Li Yi first started training his body from the bottom of his feet, and then slowly started to refine his body from the bottom to top.

His feet, knees, and thighs slowly rose up to his arms, then his head. Li Yi was not anxious at all.

After a long while, Li Yi took a deep breath and stood up to stretch his body.

Finally, Li Yi had completed the first stage of the external body tempering. Now, as he stood within the Six Yin True Fire, he did not need to use any energy to protect his body, and his body was already completely adapted to the environment of the Six Yin True Flame.

At this time, Li Yi's body began to emit a sparkling and translucent luster, like fresh cow milk, or like a lotus flower emerging from the water. Even the skin of the eight beautiful girls lost its luster in front of Li Yi.

He had a streamlined and perfect body without a single strand of fat, and no large muscles either. He looked weak like a scholar, but the radiance flowing out of his skin let others know that he had a terrifying energy within.

Li Yi stretched his body. Although he didn't feel uncomfortable sitting in the lotus position for a long time, he liked to move about.

Right now, Li Yi's body was already at the early stage of the Divine Tribulation, and his cultivation had also reached the middle stage of the Void Initiation Stage.

In this sea of fire, there was nothing much to look forward to. After moving about slightly, Li Yi sat down cross legged and started the second phase of his body refinement.

The skin on the outside had already been tempered, so he had to be more careful with his internal organs.

Li Yi slowly breathed out, he was about to suffer again. He had to endure what ordinary people could not, before he could become an adult.

This was something most people understood, but only a very, very few people could do it.

Wuuuuu! The heaven and earth went quiet. His mind was immersed in his body as he began another grand and vast project.

Just like how he was refined by the Samadhi True Fire, Li Yi used his energy to tightly wrap every single muscle inside his body.

Li Yi carefully wrapped a small ball of flame around his body and entered it. "Puchi", a ball of smoke instantly rose into the air, and the fragrance of the meat once again pervaded the air.

Li Yi clenched his teeth tightly, his brows furrowed, and did not let out a sound.

Time was like a white cloud in the sky, drifting by slowly without leaving a trace.

The flames surrounding Li Yi began to slowly enter his body, gradually increasing in speed. Then, the flames around Li Yi formed a spinning vortex, and crazily rushed into his body.

After a long while, the true flame vortex around Li Yi slowly calmed down, and in the end, returned to normal.

Whoosh! Li Yi exhaled, and muttered with a smile: "I've finally succeeded in refining the Sixth Concealed True Flame!"

Li Yi stood up, clenching his fists, he felt a huge energy boiling in his body, Li Yi was overjoyed, this feeling was too comfortable.

Li Yi bowed and stepped forward, his right fist slowly retracting his lower right fist, and his tightly clenched right fist released a burst of astonishing Spirit Qi, avoiding the surrounding flames by a large margin.

Open!

Li Yi suddenly roared, and his right fist fiercely punched forward!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

As the fist was thrown out, the sea of flames formed a storm of energy that spread out to both sides. The fist created a vacuum area of thousands of meters in front of it.

Looking down from the sky, the peaceful sea of flames of the Six Concealment Primordial Flame boiled up all of a sudden. The roaring sea of flames was like boiling water that was bubbling upwards.

The entire sea of fire shook with Li Yi's punch.

Li Yi was overjoyed, just now he had displayed all of his physical strength. That kind of powerful strength gave people a very confident feeling, as if he was the most respected person in the world.

Li Yi retracted his fists, closed his eyes and felt the changes in his body.

Li Yi felt that his body had already reached the power of the middle stage of the Sky Calamity Realm, and his cultivation was at the late stage of the Void realm as well. However, the five Yuan Pills in the field had only grown by one level.

During this trip to the sea of fire, Li Yi had gained a lot. It was unimaginable how long he would have to go through if he were to train here.

Previously, when he had gone from the Nascent Soul Stage to the later stages of the empty air phase, it had been an accident, an accident with almost no chance of survival.

Li Yi silently calculated. It had already been ten years since he had entered the sea of fire, and it was much shorter than what Li Yi had imagined.

Li Yi suddenly sighed: I don't know if Xue'er is alright, and my family is fine.

With regards to the Li Family's safety, Li Yi was very much at ease. Even if he could not win the war with the Nangong Family, he could still rely on the formation he left behind to protect himself, especially the formation in the Li Family Manor. That formation was personally set up by Li Yi himself.

Thinking about Xue'er, Li Yi's heart silently ached, and a sorrowful feeling instantly filled his entire mind. There was an empty corner in his heart.

stood there in a daze. That sorrowful feeling slowly spread out and the flames seemed to have sensed that sadness, quieting down and not rolling any longer.

After a long time, Li Yi returned from his new home, thinking carefully, Xue'er should not have been harmed. Before he left, he told the Li Family to protect Xue'er well, even if the Li Family and Nangong Family were to fight, the Nangong Family would not kill Ouyang Xue, as Ouyang Xue was the daughter of the current Patriarch of the Ouyang Family.

Li Yi shook his head, giving himself a consolation. He must have been overthinking things, maybe it was because he hadn't seen Xue'er for a long time that he missed his so much.

It was just that Li Yi did not expect, the Li family did not expect that, even the Nangong Family did not expect that the killer sent by the Nangong Family would actually kill Ouyang Xue.

Li Yi strode forward, and what waited in front of him was another world, the other world where Li Yi's true growth had started!
