Chapter 410 - 410 The Scarlet Fire
410 The Scarlet Fire
Boom!
An explosion rang out as Shen Fei’s body retreated. His skin was burning, but he also felt a burning sensation within his body.
The ball of flame had entered his body and was heading straight for his spiritual core. The speed it traveled at was extremely fast, and it reached his spiritual core in less than a heartbeat. The flame burned fiercely in his core.
“Kid, this Scarlet Flame has already developed intelligence. It won’t be easy to subdue it. However, as long as you persevere and work hard, you will be able to refine and control it one day!” the old man said.
!!
“Alright!” Shen Fei nodded.
He sat there cross-legged and circulated his cultivation technique to begin refining the Scarlet Fire. He soon managed to completely subdue the ball of flame.
cThe Scarlet Fire fused perfectly with him. After that, mysterious patterns appeared on the surface of Shen Fei’s body. This was another bloodline imprint. The aura on his body also began to transform.
The blood in his body began to boil, but it returned to normal after a while. The power in his body was also gradually increasing. Soon, Shen Fei stepped into the peak of the transcendent realm. A terrifying aura burst out from his body, and his entire person seemed to resemble his Echelon title: God of War..
Boom!
Suddenly, the valley outside the cave shook again. Dark clouds began to gather above, and waves of lightning descended like a tidal wave that engulfed the entire valley.
When he stood outside, the lightning began to bombard Shen Fei’s body! The power of this thunderbolt was comparable to the full power of a cultivator who had perfected the transcendent realm.
This scene frightened Shen Fei and the old man. They stared at this scene with their eyes wide open and their expressions stiff. It was simply too horrifying!
If they had not witnessed this scene with their own eyes, no one would have believed that a single person could cause such a violent thunderstorm.
As the sky continued to flash with lightning, the injuries on Shen Fei’s body began to recover. His cultivation level continued to soar unhindered.
Soon after, the blood in Shen Fei’s body started to boil again, and a monstrous Emperor’s Might erupted from his body.
The aura was so potent that all the plants in the valley withered and died. These plants had contained extremely dense life elements, but it was of no use in the face of Shen Fei’s newly acquired power.
Shen Fei’s eyes widened even more as the pressure surged through his entire body. His body then released a dazzling multicolored light. There was even a purple flame that danced between his eyebrows.
Shen Fei stood up and stared at his surroundings. Although he had not manually cultivated himself into the Apprentice tier, his aura was almost on par with a Saint-tier Beastmaster. He could use techniques of that level, but at this moment, he even had the demeanor of a peerless Beastmaster.
As expected of someone who possessed a system, attaining the cultivation level that usually took others millennia to achieve was a small matter. Moreover, he was still under twenty years old.
Impatient to test his new powers, Shen Fei soared into the sky. He waved his fist and punched out. His target was the remnant of the Scarlet Fire that did not merge with him.
The punch was devastating. It blasted toward the ball of Scarlet Fire like a raging meteor.
With a mighty boom, lightning flashed in the sky and transformed into a giant hammer. The hammer carried a force equal to the Nine Heavens as it came crashing down on Shen Fei.
Suddenly, Shen Fei’s body directly burst out with dazzling light, and he soared into the sky to meet the attack. He looked like he was determined to smash this giant lightning hammer into pieces.
“Today, I will make this Scarlet Fire submit to me. Let’s see how powerful you are!” Shen Fei roared.
He summoned an iron staff and gripped it with both hands, then he swung it at the giant hammer.
The two weapons smashed into each other fiercely and a deafening boom sounded through the valley. The valley was set aflame with a great explosion. Any remaining plant life for hundreds of meters all around was, by this point, unquestionably destroyed.
Shen Fei’s body was sent flying back by the giant lightning hammer. Blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth, and his expression had turned ugly. Shen Fei’s eyes were filled with a cold light as he watched the giant hammer.
The old man yelled at Shen Fei, “Kid, this is the Scarlet Fire we’re talking about. It’s a flame that’s ranked among the top twenty on the heavenly flames ranking. Even a Master-tier cultivator would have to avoid this Scarlet Fire. Are you sure you want to provoke it?”
“Since I chose to subdue this Scarlet Fire, I have no intention of backing down. I do not believe that this ‘heavenly flame’ can really do anything to me.” Shen Fei snorted. “Today, I’ll show you what a sovereign flame is.”
The old man looked at Shen Fei and sighed. “It’s good for young people to have ambition. I hope you won’t regret it.”
In the next second, the Scarlet Fire rushed toward Shen Fei, wanting to devour him.
Suddenly, Shen Fei’s spiritual core erupted with the monstrous aura of a divine fire, clashing fiercely with the Scarlet Fire. Shen Fei took the opportunity to control the newfound power in his body and activated it. With a booming sound, another fiery aura immediately spread out around his body.
Meanwhile, the Scarlet Fire transformed into a giant flaming bird that spread its wings and flew toward Shen Fei. Before she could touch Shen Fei, it was enveloped by his flames.
“Huh?” Seeing this, the old man was shocked. Then, he saw that the Scarlet Fire was being absorbed into Shen Fei’s body. “The kid is actually going to devour the Scarlet Fire?” The old man wore an incredulous expression on his face.
At this moment, a golden beam of light shot out from Shen Fei’s body and rushed toward the Scarlet Fire. The beam of light devoured the Scarlet Fire. Then, a loud rumble came from his spiritual core as the power of the Scarlet Flame was refined and absorbed. Shen Fei’s entire body seemed to change again.
The old man looked at Shen Fei and said, “Kid, there’s a powerful and mysterious fire in your body. It must be the heavenly flame.”
A deafening thunderbolt struck Shen Fei’s body once more. His limbs and bones were filled with the terrifying power of lightning.
‘This kid can actually summon lightning to forge his body?!’ At this moment, the old man stared at Shen Fei in shock and disbelief.
In this world, other than the people of the imperial family, no one had ever been able to do this. This was simply too fantastical.
“Are you going to break through?” The old man asked in surprise.
Shen Fei did not answer. He simply sat on the ground in the lotus position. The emperor’s lightning in his body rumbled continuously.
Shen Fei’s body went into another round of transformations. He wanted to use this Scarlet Fire to temper his body.
A series of soul-shaking thunderclaps sounded. The seven-planet vortex in Shen Fei’s spiritual core produced streaks of purple lightning. The lightning spread out until it spanned Shen Fei’s entire body.
