Chapter 738: The Power of the Dao Fire
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Di Jiu stared blankly at the terrifying flame before him. He had not expected that such a terrifying flame would erupt when his Dao fire met the Moon Core and the Sun Core.
The Defense Array that he had set up had long been turned into nothing by the Dao fire, which had devoured the Moon Core and the Sun Core. That was a level-six Divine Defense Array. Di Jiu suspected that if he had not had a Sacred Body or this flame had not been his, he would probably have ended up the same as the Defense Array outside: He would have been annihilated.
The heat of the Dao fire kept rising and he felt the tremors of space. How terrifying was the flame to be able to burn this space and make it tremble?
As the Moon Core and the Sun Core were continuously devoured, the color of the Dao fire became lighter and lighter.
The tremor of the space got so much stronger that even Ling Xiaoshuang, who was in seclusion to stabilize her cultivation level in the distance, was aware of it. Immediately, she walked to Di Jiu’s cave abode. Unfortunately, her Spiritual Force was blocked by the frantically-advancing Dao fire so she could not permeate it at all. At the moment, Ling Xiaoshuang could only shout outside, “Big Brother Di, are you okay?”
Di Jiu hurriedly replied, “I’m fine. I’m cultivating something. You should go back and stabilize your cultivation level.”
Even though Di Jiu did not say so clearly, Ling Xiaoshuang guessed that he should be advancing his flame. If his flame required the Moon Core and the Sun Core to advance at the same time, it could only be the Dao fire.
Ling Xiaoshuang had heard of the Dao fire. Since ancient times, only a few cultivators had condensed the Dao fire. After all, the Dao fire was the most difficult to advance. In fact, after the Dao fire advanced to the divine level, there was basically no hope of advancing it further.
That was because there were only two ways to advance the Dao fire from a divine flame to a sacred flame, and one of them was to use a Fire Origin Pearl. How rare was an Origin Pearl, not to mention a Fire Origin Pearl? Not many people were willing to use an Origin Pearl to advance their flame.
Besides the Origin Peal, the Moon Core and the Sun Core could be used simultaneously. However, they were both rare. They were also not any less precious than the Origin Pearl.
It was indeed possible to only use one of them for advancement. However, not only would the Dao fire have an ordinary power, but it would also gradually lose a little of its spirituality.
Unexpectedly, Di Jiu could condense the Dao fire. Despite that, he had even advanced the Dao fire to the divine level and obtained the Moon Core and the Sun Core at the same time.
After guessing that Di Jiu was advancing his Dao fire, Ling Xiaoshuang did not worry anymore and turned to return to her cave abode.
Just half a month later, the flame that had been rising in heat was gradually stabilized. Then, it turned into a small gray spark and landed on Di Jiu’s palm.
At that moment, Di Jiu could clearly feel everything about the Dao fire. Even without any thoughts, the Dao fire could do what he really wanted to do the most.
When his Spiritual Force moved, the Dao fire turned into a gray flame pattern and landed on the back of his hand. When his Spiritual Force moved again, the flame stopped in his Spiritual Sea.
When this gray flame landed on the palm of his hand again, Di Jiu was ecstatic. He finally had a sacred flame. If everything went well, he would soon have a second kind of sacred flame after some time. After all, he had a piece of the Moon Core.
Di Jiu knew that the Dao fire was different from other flames. Many flames would give birth to fire spirits after becoming a sacred flame, but the Dao fire would never have a fire spirit because every part of the fire was bestowed upon the owner.
Di Jiu took out a piece of Nirvana Black Metal Stone. When his intent moved, the Dao fire enveloped this Nirvana Black Metal Stone. Immediately, Di Jiu was pleasantly surprised to discover that the Dao fire had completed all his hand seals while his intent had moved.
In just half an hour, this piece of Nirvana Black Metal Stone had been refined by the Dao fire into a high-grade long saber.
It was as powerful as expected, so Di Jiu was even more satisfied. When the Dao fire had refined the long saber just now, he had only used his own intent without taking the initiative to do any blacksmithing hand seals or movements. If he wanted to do that, a high-grade divine weapon might not be refined but a supreme-grade divine weapon most likely would.
Without hesitation, Di Jiu drew his Heavenly Aqua Saber and took out the white Melted Planet Metal. He had always wanted to advance the Heavenly Aqua Saber but had never had a chance. Since he had the materials and a sacred flame, when would he advance his Heavenly Aqua Saber if not now?
As soon as the Melted Planet Metal landed on the Dao fire, it immediately turned into pure metal-element laws. This was the first time that Di Jiu saw the material turn into laws. At the moment, he did not dare hesitate.
The Heavenly Aqua Saber was sent into this kind of law by Di Jiu. The laws and the Heavenly Aqua Saber merged as he constantly performed these hand seals.
In the beginning, his hand seals followed one after another. However, later on, they formed laws that merged with the Melted Planet Metal and the Heavenly Aqua Saber. As a result, the aura of the Heavenly Aqua Saber also frantically rose.
Clank! A clear sound was heard before the space instantly turned silent.
Di Jiu looked at the Heavenly Aqua Saber that floated before him in pleasant surprise. It was a light green color and it was slightly emitting a small silver starlight flare.
By the time he drew his saber, that frantic saber intent aura could no longer be covered.
Di Jiu opened his palm and the Heavenly Aqua Saber landed in it. He heaved a sigh of contentment. At first, he had felt happy that his Heavenly Aqua Saber could become a high-grade divine weapon.
Now, not only had his Heavenly Aqua Saber become a high-grade divine weapon, but it had also become a supreme-grade divine weapon.
Di Jiu knew very well that this was not only caused by the supreme-grade Melted Planet Metal, but also by the enlightenment of his blacksmithing hand seal and alchemy hand seal, which had formed a whole set of nomological blacksmithing seals. Apart from that, there was also his Dao fire, which was really suitable for advancing the Heavenly Aqua Saber.
The fire, the saber, and the blacksmithing laws were all his. This would naturally allow his Heavenly Aqua Saber to advance.
Di Jiu opened his mouth and spit a trail of blood on the Heavenly Aqua Saber. After his intent was re-integrated into the Heavenly Aqua Saber, the saber with the unrestrained saber intent turned into an ordinary saber weapon that landed behind him.
Di Jiu stood up. He knew that he could go save Cai Ji with Ling Xiaoshuang now. As for whether he would continue to blacksmith in seclusion, Di Jiu did not want to waste any time.
The Heavenly Aqua Saber had advanced to a supreme-grade divine weapon, and the Dao fire had advanced into a sacred flame, raising his combat strength to another level.
“Big Brother Di, you’re out of seclusion so quickly?” Ling Xiaoshuang looked at Di Jiu in pleasant surprise. She had planned to wait for Di Jiu for three months and had not expected that he would come out of seclusion to find her and look for Sister Cai Ji within a month.
“Yes, I succeeded in advancing my flame so we can go now.” Di Jiu did not hide anything from Ling Xiaoshuang. He also knew that she should be aware of his Dao fire and that he had advanced it into a sacred flame.
…
Thanks to Ling Xiaoshuang, Di Jiu knew that the Five Great Realms were different from other realms. Every realm in the Five Great Realms had a void gateway one could use to enter the vast void.
Although the Great Ultimate Realm had fallen, this void gateway still existed. Even though the major array of the void square and the void exit had never been restored, people were still guarding them.
However, any cultivator who entered or returned from the void there had to take out a certain amount of divine crystals.
100,000 divine crystals was a huge amount for an ordinary cultivator, but for Di Jiu, that was really nothing.
He took out 200,000 divine crystals to purchase two jade cards and leave the Great Ultimate Realm.
Before Di Jiu and Ling Xiaoshuang could reach the void square while holding the jade cards, two women stopped them. Di Jiu was not surprised to see them.
He knew Yin Yueshu, who was only at the early-stage Primordial Chaos. The other woman, who was extremely pretty and had a faint water-element aura encircling her, was much stronger than Yin Yueshu and had been stabilized at half-step Dao Integration.
“Yueshu, were you talking about these two?” the half-step Dao Integration woman next to Yin Yueshu asked. Based on her indifferent tone, she did not take Dao Integration and Ling Xiaoshuang seriously.
Yin Yueshu did not seem to hear the woman beside her. Instead, she stared at Di Jiu in amazement before she said after a while, “Elder Jiu You of the Winter Valley did not keep the two of you?”
