Chapter 450
‘If what Zahira said is true, and each of heavenly flames really need a flow of Original Energy, then Earth Flame also had one when it had ascended.’
‘No wonder why the energy of the Grace Mainland had nearly come to the end of its cycle. Turned out it was related to the Earth Flame.’
“Why did you ask about the Heaven Flames?” Zahira’s beautiful eyes rippled with a strange light as if she understood something. She looked at the huge skeleton and beamed a forced smile. “Your luck is too good, you know? You got a heavenly flame!”
At that moment, Leylin felt a movement underground, a fiery energy undulated from underneath.
“It’s here!” Ice Cold Flame exclaimed.
‘I know.’
The feeble flow of energy became clearer. Soon, an orange-red flame appeared. The flame enlarged gradually, and in just a blink, it became an exquisite Vermilion Bird, floating above the skull of the giant bird.
A scorching, flaming energy bloomed from that Vermilion Bird. It was like a change of heaven and earth energy. Waves of flame rippled unceasingly, covering Leylin and Zahira.
“He wants to start a fight!” The Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame was totally enraged. “Although he’s at level 5, we aren’t alone. Such an arrogant bastard!”
“This fight between the heaven flames is unique and mysterious. You can’t participate in it easily.” The Ice Cold Flame told him.
‘I know, the rules don’t allow humans to interfere in the fight of heavenly flames, you guys take care.’
In the next moment, strange flames flew out one by one from Leylin’s Soul Altar.
Five great heaven flames, including the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame, the Ice Cold Flame, Purgatory True Flames and the Corpse Vanishing Flame got out and stormed towards the Vermilion Bird created by the Vermilion Bird True Flame.
Zahira gawked, muttering as if she were sleep-talking. “One, two, three, four! five! My God!”
Leylin frowned, touching his forehead. He found that the Earth Flame in a state of dormancy. Seemed like after absorbing Volcano Crystal Nucleus it entered a process of ascension. The Earth Flame wouldn’t join this battle.
Shortly, the silver Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, the blue Yin Spirit Ghost Flame, the yellow Purgatory True Flames, the green Corpse Vanishing Flame, and the jade white Ice Cold Flame flashed and then disappeared, swarming towards the Vermilion Bird True Flame.
Five energies of different attributes were activated, stirring up this whole world and shaking it turbulently.
The Corpse Vanishing Flame came the last, floating silently. In just a flash, a magical magnetic field expanded from its green flame.
Suddenly, countless spooky, green colored phosphorescent lights slowly flew up from the barren land.
A faint corpse Qi was found in those spooky green lights. It seemed the flame had dragged the last beam of energy in those experts and beasts’ skeletons.
So many spooky green flames gathered and congregated in the Corpse Vanishing Flame. At the same time, the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame seemed to have sensed something, as a wave of energy rippled from it. Then, a gossamer-like energy that naked eyes couldn’t see diffused from the dark cotton clouds in the sky, moving towards the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame.
At this moment, Leylin could clearly feel how joyful the Corpse Vanishing Flame and the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame were. This area could supply them a powerful energy.
The Corpse Vanishing Flame could gain energy from the corpses.
And, the thick cotton clouds in the sky seemed to contain the remnants of the spooky souls, which the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame could take in.
It looked like these flames had been prepared. As soon as they flew out, they acted immediately, taking the power that benefited them to increase their auras.
Countless green phosphorescent flames and a large amount of energy from soul remnants made the Corpse Vanishing Flame and the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame overjoyed, especially the latter. He was a level 4 heaven flame.
Zahira suddenly groaned, even though she had no wounds.”You… How many tricks do you have? Why do I feel that you always have many mysteries that people will never fully discover?”
“It’s nothing much.”
He looked at the sky. So many layers of flames covered the entire sky, just like a massive cluster of light.
Shortly, the light disappeared, leaving some auras that even the Soul Consciousness couldn’t catch.
Leylin came near the thousand-meters-long skeleton of the Vermilion Bird. He faced the sky, gathering his Soul Consciousness.
‘I know you can borrow my soul energy. You don’t need to worry about anything else, borrow as much as you need.’
“It won’t be needed! He and I have taken the Corpse Qi in this area. We’ve gained big this time. It won’t be too harsh dealing with him.” The Yin Spirit Ghost Flame sent him a message. Among the heaven flames, there were three level 4 flame. Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, the Yin Spirit Ghost Flame and the Ice Cold Flame.
Currently, the heavenly flames weren’t facing much pressure while fighting with the Vermilion Bird True Flame.
Hearing his confidence, Leylin knew victory was under his grasp.
‘It wasn’t wasteful nurturing these heavenly flames with my sentient force, soul energy and blood essence.’
He smiled and then relaxed, walking around the Vermilion Bird’s skeleton, observing the ancient creature from the Grace Mainland.
‘Vermillion Bird… it’s brings back so much memories, especially from Lava World. It’s been part of my bloodline lineage for millenniums… Unfortunately it’s an extinct bloodline here but one day I’ll help this poor clan regains it’s glory.’
The Sacred Beast Vermilion Bird was born in the Immemorial Epoch in the Grace Mainland. It had left the Grace Mainland a long time ago. A mighty sacred beast like it had fallen in outer space, under the siege of so many experts. Ultimately, it had paid a big price of having its God Soul dispersed to kill all of the enemies.
The outer space was too dangerous, indeed.
The Vermilion Bird’s skeleton was ten thousand meters tall. Its bones were ash gray and rotten. It seemed to have no energy remaining in it.
Leylin carefully observed its remains and discovered that even though it appeared to be decayed, this Vermilion Bird’s skeleton was still very rigid.
“All other skeleton remains have already decayed to rotten ahses but it’s still so strong. Ancient Bloodlines are truly remarkable.”
“This beast isn’t some kind of creature our Raging Flame Star Area could nurture. It’s might have been carved in the minds of many people of the Raging Flame Star Area. According to the legends, we had to mobilize almost all of the peak experts of the Raging Flame Star Area at that time to kill him. That beast was able to kill all of them! I don’t know how he could do that.” Zahira seemed to respect the beast. “It’s fortunate that your continent is going to see the end of its energy cycle. Otherwise, I can’t imagine how frightening it would be. Creatures from that continent are too powerful. They are all beyond my knowledge.”
“Crack Crack Crack!”
Suddenly, fierce cracking sounds echoed under the skeleton of the Sacred Beast Vermilion Bird.
“What happened!?”
Zahira was dumbstruck, looking at the ground under her feet.
The ground was torn apart, revealing a large hole. A massive crystal that was as big as a football court emerged slowly. Countless beams of sunlight were radiating from that crystal, as the flaming energy of the sun was surging vehemently. A burning liquid was moving on the surface of the crystal.
“Sun Original Essence!”
The flaming crystal slowly emerged from the ground, releasing a lot of sunbeams. At that moment, the icy cold, barren land was filled with scorching energy.
Numerous skeletons of warriors and beasts were melted under those sunbeams. The gray sky was illuminated by the flaming light, as the colored light extended everywhere.
The aura of the Vermilion Bird True Flame inside the sky suddenly rocketed!
Right after the flaming crystal appeared, Vermilion Bird True Flame seemed to gain more power and regained some footing thanks to the supplementation from the crystal.
In the fierce fight between the heaven flames, outsiders couldn’t participate. Even Leylin, the one with the heaven flame tier in his soul altar, could only use his soul energy to aid his flames.
The fight between heaven flames seemed to have some binding principles.
Every time the heaven flames fought, they would be covered by an invisible force, which hindered outsiders from sensing or interfering in their fight.
The flaming crystal slowly emerged, as if some force was guiding it to fly up from underground.
Fear appeared on Zahira’s charming face as sweat dampened her neck. A seven-colored God Light twirled around her to resist the eroding sunbeams.
The Sun Original Essence looked like a burning crystal, just like the Star Original Essence Leylin had seen. It was the essence of the Sun Heart, the fountain of the flaming energy of the sun.
Leylin suddenly smiled, “Ask and you shall have. ”
With a bright look in his eyes, he touched the glabella on his forehead.
A flame bloomed in his palm, running into the soul altar in his head. The soul altar then spun in his Sea of Consciousness. The Star Martial Spirit’s mysterious Intent Domain suddenly sparkled in the second tier of the soul altar.
A scorching flame appeared in his soul altar. In the next moment, his entire body was covered in a frightening red flame.
Leylin controlled his breath and concentrated, using his God Soul to be the tentacles to touch the Sun Original Essence to transfer the mysteries hidden in the crystal.
His God Soul seemed to enter a scorching space where so many flaming crystals were moving swiftly. Between the crystals were many narrow gaps. They looked like a giant formation carved by God, which stimulated the energy of the crystals. They layered up and created a natural spiritual formation, which hid certain principles of Nature.
He had tested the magical connection between his Star Upanishad in the God Soul and the Sun when he was in the Solar Star Exploding Fragment Field.
The Star Upanishad included all the stars in the sky. The Sun was a Solar Star, and the Moon was a Moon Star; they were all considered stars. If he wanted to advance his Star Martial Spirit, understanding the mysteries and principles of the Solar Star and Moon Star was a step he needed to take.
This Upanishad contained the vast starry sky, with all stars in the sky being his objects to study. Since the Solar Star and the Moon Star were the two most important parts of the sky, they were the critical subjects he needed to comprehend little by little.
As his God Soul was reflecting the Sun Original Essence, his Soul Consciousness had unknowingly flooded to the Essence Crystal and explored it.
The Sun Original Essence was the core power of the Sun. This fountain of energy had been there, carrying the mysteries when the Sun was born and whenever it changed. If he could get just a bit of it, he could make his understanding of the Solar energy more profound, which would level up his Star Martial Spirit the second time.
Of course, he wouldn’t let this chance slip away.
His Soul Consciousness flew inside the Sun Original Essence as he has concentrated to comprehend something.
The crystals were constantly releasing an enormous energy. It was just like the heart of a fire; even if the crystals were draining out, it was still scorching hot!
In the sea of crystals, he could feel the power of fire and the heat of the Sun in his consciousness. This Sun Original Essence seemed to have a magical life. It liked and hated all creatures at the same time, which was very complicated.
Leylin stayed in the Sun Original Essence and felt its emotions, its stories. He could feel the Sun’s sorrow and feelings, its contribution to the world, and all it had done for the world. This world of emotions was something ordinary people would never be able to touch.
A scarlet flame quietly flew out from Leylin’s pupils..
When that flame appeared, it released a magical energy wave, as if it had a miraculous connection with the Sun Original Essence which was floating in the sky. All of a sudden, the Sun Original Essence in the sky started to tremble.
In the next moment, the Sun Original Essence shot out the purest and scorching sunbeams, pouring them into the center of that flame.
The flame then twisted, turning into a wonderful red flame. Inside that red flame, Zahira could see the energy fluctuations of the remnants of Volcano Crystal Nucleus.
A brilliant light sparkled in her beautiful eyes as they locked at that flame. After a while, she beamed a forced smile, “Another heaven flame!”
Soon, she was shaken again, her eyes getting dizzy.
The Sun Original Essence sent out two other flows of energy which spun round and round.
Two beams of refined sunlight were shot to the sky and the ground. One flung to the deep place in the sky, creating the connection with the Vermilion Bird True Flame, while the other descended from the sky, not aiming at the scarlet flame but Leylin, entering his heart.
After being stunned for a while, Zahira mumbled, “Can’t let you get all the good things…”
She touched her forehead, as her soul altar rose. The second tier of her soul altar had the rainbow-colored light.It was her main power Upanishad: The God Light Upanishad.
Right now, she was using that flow of God Light to draw the blazing sunbeam to shine on her soul altar.
