Chapter 127 - 127 Qiao'er's Sacrifice
127 Qiao’er’s Sacrifice
Zhou Yun couldn’t help but turn his head to the other side. However, he saw Meng Yuxin’s expressionless face. He could only awkwardly turn his gaze to the other side.
“Qiao’er, is this the method you mentioned to deepen your understanding and familiarity with the phoenix fire?” Although Zhou Yun did not reject it, he still felt a little embarrassed. After all, there was a nascent soul old monster watching them from the side!
“Brother Zhou Yun! I’m shy too… Please feel my phoenix fire!” Qiao’er said shyly. She wanted to say it in a stern tone, but the words became soft when they reached her mouth.
Zhou Yun’s expression was serious as he nodded his head.
“Alright, Qiao’er. I’ll feel your phoenix fire.” Zhou Yun was embarrassed. He had actually thought wrong.
Zhou Yun closed his eyes and activated the phoenix fire in his body. Under the control of the Saint Fire Body, the phoenix fire seemed to be something that Zhou Yun was born with. Other than being unable to control it well for the time being, there was not a single trace of sluggishness in using the phoenix fire.
However, Zhou Yun still felt that something was amiss. According to logic, the more flames the Saint Fire Body devoured, the more powerful it would become!
Zhou Yun’s Saint Fire Body had devoured the spirit fire that had gone berserk in the beginning. Now, he had even devoured the world’s best phoenix fire.
By right, the Saint Fire Body should have completely melded the spiritual fire and the phoenix fire together to form a new type of flame. However, after careful observation, Zhou Yun discovered that the newly born flame in his body could actually be seen in a certain corner of his body. This flame could be divided into spiritual fire and phoenix fire.
“My Saint Fire Body hasn’t completely fused the two flames together?” After Zhou Yun calmed down and observed carefully, he discovered the problem.
“The spiritual fire is the first type of flame I’ve absorbed after awakening the Saint Fire Body. I’m sure I’ve already gained full control of it. There was only one possibility for the current situation. I haven’t even fully counted the phoenix fire! or rather, it’s because I’m not familiar with the phoenix fire that I wasn’t able to completely merge the two types of flames together!” Zhou Yun summarized the problem in detail!
“Qiao’er is so warm. Her phoenix fire is very small, but it gives people a very comfortable feeling. It’s as if Qiao’er was born for this kind of phoenix fire.” Zhou Yun sensed Qiao’er’s phoenix fire and realized that Qiao’er’s use of flames was different from his!
Qiao’er had already gained full control of the phoenix fire, and it was extremely compatible with her body. However, Zhou Yun realized that he had only absorbed the phoenix fire into his body in one go. He was only able to use the phoenix fire by relying on the Saint Fire Body to suppress it.
‘Perhaps I should consider doing what Qiao’er did, to have the phoenix fire completely match the strength of my body.’ Zhou Yun thought of a solution.
Zhou Yun immediately acted upon his thoughts.
He carefully felt Qiao’er’s phoenix fire, its scale, temperature, and quality.
After a while, Zhou Yun opened his eyes. He gradually understood everything!
“Brother Zhou Yun, are you done?” Qiao’er’s weak voice sounded. She had just activated the phoenix fire mystic technique that she had obtained in the secret realm, allowing the phoenix fire to reveal its true appearance in front of Zhou Yun so that he could comprehend it.
However, Qiao’er did not expect to be so embarrassed. She raised her head and looked at Zhou Yun. Her eyes were moist because of her shyness.
“Alright! Thank you, Qiao’er, this has been of great help to me. I feel like I’ve already grasped the way to control the phoenix fire!” Zhou Yun said seriously. Seeing this, Qiao’er let go of Zhou Yun’s hand with relief.
Zhou Yun retracted his hand naturally. The temperature of Qiao’er’s phoenix fire still remained on it. Qiao’er was already able to control the temperature of the phoenix fire to the level of normal body temperature! It was different from Zhou Yun. Every time Zhou Yun used the Saint Fire Body, it was as if he wanted to burn up. He was just short of turning into a ball of fire!
However, Zhou Yun believed that with Qiao’er’s help this time, he would be able to use the phoenix fire with ease, and he would be able to change the temperature of the burning flames as he pleased!
Zhou Yun nodded gratefully at Qiao’er. He closed his eyes and once again activated the phoenix fire in his body! This time, Zhou Yun did not increase the power of the phoenix fire all at once. Instead, he slowly spread the phoenix fire to every corner of his body like a small stream of water!
“It can work! This time, my body temperature didn’t increase much!” Zhou Yun felt that his body temperature had only risen slightly, and it was only about 60 degrees. He was greatly relieved! This was much better than his body being burnt to a few hundred degrees earlier!
He continued to control the phoenix fire like this until the Saint Fire Body had complete control over the phoenix fire. Then, he let the spiritual fire and the phoenix fire merge together completely. Zhou Yun did not stop just because of a small success. He continued to control the phoenix fire in his body.
With Qiao’er’s demonstration, Zhou Yun gradually found a way to use the phoenix fire! At the very beginning, he had not even used the Saint Fire Body once, but his body had already become extremely hot. He was like a man on fire, burning in pain all over his body. Now, he was only burning, and the temperature was controlled to be around 60 degrees!
“Very good, now I’ve already spread all the phoenix fire to every corner of my body, the Saint Fire Body should be completely familiar with the phoenix fire! Fortunately, the phoenix fire itself is an auspicious fire, representing life force, which allowed me to easily control it. If it were any other flame, I would probably have to spend even more time.” Zhou Yun said. He felt that Qiao’er was really like a divine weapon that had descended from the heavens, and she had helped him too much!
“My Saint Fire Body can suppress two types of flames at the same time and allow them to mix together. However, if he wanted to combine all of them together, I have to succeed 100%! Even if there’s just a slight bit of disharmony, if there’s just a little bit of flame that hasn’t fused, I might suffer a crazy backlash from the two flames!”
Zhou Yun was extremely cautious. The more powerful the Saint Fire Body was, the more dangerous it would be to control it. Power was not easy to obtain, so he had to be careful!
If the two types of flames backfired at the same time, the spiritual fire would still be fine. However, he had already endured one of the normal flames. However, if the phoenix fire backfired, then he could be instantly burned to ashes by the incomparably high temperature!
“Brother Zhou Yun, Qiao’er will always be by your side.” Qiao’er held Zhou Yun’s hand and stared into his eyes shyly.
Zhou Yun rubbed Qiao’er’s head. And there was such a cute Qiao’er waiting for him to take her away from this damned place. Zhou Yun looked at his hand. He could not fall here!
