Could what lay below somehow relate to the cultivation method of the Five Primal Energy Stores? After a brief thought, Xiao Jian extended his hand to Xiao Yixian, asking gently,
"Shall we go down and take a look?"
"Alright."
Xiao Yixian placed her hand in his, following closely behind.
Xiao Jian kept her safely behind him as they descended the stairs.
The staircase was long and winding. After about a quarter of an hour, Xiao Yixian was nearly exhausted when suddenly, their vision opened to a vast space, and a wave of heat surged over them.
"What is this?"
Xiao Yixian removed her cloak, looking at the scene before her, a little dazed as she asked Xiao Jian.
"Heavenly Flame?"
Xiao Jian's eyes were filled with uncertainty and awe. He never expected that the resonance with his Five Primal Energy Stores would be triggered by an Heavenly flame!
Before them lay a vast, boundless space. Yet in this emptiness, there was only a single bicolored flame, black and white, radiating faint energy. It seemed to have been newly formed, not having accumulated much power.
"That's an Heavenly flame? What's an Heavenly flame?" Xiao Yixian asked, puzzled. She had never heard of such a thing.
"In this vast world, there exist certain natural heavenly flames.
Some may come from meteors descending from the sky, others from deep volcanic magma that has been refined over centuries.
These flames are incredibly powerful, far stronger than fire produced by Dou Qi or even some high-tier beast flames.
As an alchemist, you know their appeal. Exotic flames are irresistibly attractive...they are perfect for refining medicine or combat."
Xiao Jian explained with a smile.
"But if that's the case, harnessing it for use… wouldn't that be difficult?"
Xiao Yixian frowned, her expression serious.
"Luckily for us, our luck is good.
This exotic flame hasn't existed long and is in a relatively isolated space, only absorbing some ambient energy.
So it's not as strong as it might seem...we can give it a try."
Xiao Jian released his soul energy, thoroughly probing the flame, then said thoughtfully.
"Ah?" Xiao Yixian was surprised. By Xiao Jian's description, ordinary people in their position should have fled immediately upon encountering an exotic flame!
After all, a beast capable of condensing flame would far surpass the strength of a Dou Zhe. Xiao Jian, no matter how strong, was still just a Dou Zhe-level cultivator. Could he really handle it?
"If I'm right, this exotic flame is called the Yin-Yang Twin Flame. It was born from the void of the universe, a manifestation of the Yin-Yang principle.
It takes a century to mature spiritually, a thousand years to fully form.
Judging by its faint energy fluctuations, it hasn't yet gained consciousness, making it easier to refine."
Excitement flickered in Xiao Jian's eyes. He hadn't expected such an opportunity to appear before him!
Although the Yin-Yang Twin Flame only ranked 21st on the exotic flame chart, it carried the power of Yin-Yang origin:
Yang flame can save lives, endlessly nurturing; Yin flame kills, leaving no trace.
Such power, on the neighboring Tianxuan Continent, could only be wielded by supreme masters in the Death-Realm.
Moreover, this exotic flame seemed slightly connected to his Five Primal Energy Stores.
It was naturally imperative to acquire it!
"Looks like there's writing on the wall!" Xiao Yixian exclaimed.
Following her gaze, Xiao Jian noticed faint engraved markings on the wall.
"This space was left by an elder. If a successor reaches here, it's likely to collect the elder's remains.
This exotic flame was accidentally acquired during the elder's travels, still in its juvenile phase. It's left here as a gift to successors.
The chamber is in the mountain, equipped with mechanisms that seal the flame's energy, limiting its growth.
Beneath the inscription is a hidden compartment containing a Na Ring.
All materials needed to consume the exotic flame are inside.
Once you reach Dou Shi strength, you can absorb and refine the flame for yourself."
Xiao Jian blinked and gently pressed the stone where the markings were.
Click!
Sure enough, a stone popped open, revealing an ancient black-and-white Na Ring.
"There really is one!" Xiao Yixian approached, murmuring.
Xiao Jian smiled and retrieved the Na Ring. It appeared to be a high-grade ring, rare even in the Gamma Empire.
He infused soul energy into it, then flipped his palm to reveal three jade bottles inside.
They contained:
Fourth-grade pill: Yin-Yang Yuan Guidance Pill
Sky-Cold Qi
Soul Absorption
Watching Xiao Jian's actions, Xiao Yixian hesitated.
"You're not planning to tame the exotic flame now, are you? You're only a Dou Zhe.
The elder said it requires Dou Shi level!"
"Don't worry. I'm no ordinary Dou Zhe....the foundation of a Dou Shi isn't stronger than mine."
Xiao Jian smiled, waving his hand, then raised an eyebrow teasingly:
"If you're really worried, maybe you should first remove the poison I put in your body?"
