The Divine Fire Realm involves igniting the seed of divine fire. Long Chen had read related books; at this realm, almost everyone must first condense the fire seed.
This determines a person's future development direction: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, light, darkness, soul, blood, bone, essence, qi, and countless other types.
When a person reaches the peak of mortal transformation and goes through baptism, they understand where they are strongest, then choose the strongest attribute to condense the fire seed.
If a person is a wood-attribute powerhouse, they condense the seed of wood fire. Once they step into the Divine Fire Realm, the other attributes they possess will subtly transform into wood-element power, making their power even stronger and purer.
Therefore, when condensing the Divine Fire Seed, she usually chooses her strongest attribute, which is also the one she wants to develop. For example, Mu Qingyun, being a sword cultivator, chooses to ignite the spiritual flame, which helps her focus more and makes it easier to integrate into the sword path.
As for Luo Bing and Luo Ning, they belong to the category of immortal cultivators and usually choose to cultivate souls. However, since the Luo family has ancestral blood inheritance, they will definitely choose to ignite the fire of essence blood, which will make their future cultivation of family techniques much more effective.
Igniting a divine fire usually requires consideration from many aspects and cannot be generalized. Most people choose different cultivation paths based on their background, bloodline, heritage, and personal reasons.
However, the Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique Long Chen practiced had no development direction. He had previously studied whether to pursue a body cultivation path, as this would make his physical body stronger.
But his strength was not only in his physical body; the body was merely a vessel for the power of the stars. His greatest strength was probably the 108,000 stars within his body.
The power of the stars is endless; to unleash their strength, one must have a strong body; otherwise, one simply cannot withstand their strength.
However, if one focuses only on the body and neglects the 108,000 stars, with some intention of neglecting the fundamental and the cart being put elsewhere, it is very likely to lead down the wrong path.
Now, Long Chen was like feeling his way across a river, having no idea what the road ahead would look like. But time waits for no one—he couldn't possibly spend years studying it.
And even if he spent several years researching, he might not get any results, so Long Chen simply gritted his teeth and didn't think about anything—just follow his instincts.
"Buzz!"
Long Chen sat bare-chested on a massive rock, hands forming seals. His vital energy erupted, and the immense power twisted the space. Without deliberate intervention, his entire body was ignited, forming massive flames around him.
As the flames burned, the rocks beneath Long Chen quickly turned red-red, and the surrounding vegetation was instantly reduced to ashes.
"The fire of the divine path is to unleash all the energy within the body. Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, light, darkness, soul, blood, bone, essence, qi, and countless other powers are all manifested before your eyes.
According to the book, at this moment, it's very easy to feel your strongest aspect. As long as you ignite it, you can basically be wrong. So why can't I see it? Various
runes burned before Long Chen's eyes, dancing in the flames. Each color of rune represented a kind of energy, and its presence could be sensed with the mind.
According to the textbook, the stronger a person's strength and greatest potential, the larger and darker the rune they are, making it very easy to recognize.
However, all the runes around Long Chen were the same color and size. Long Chen had always believed his flesh and blood power was the strongest, but the runes representing flesh and blood power were no larger than the others.
"Could it be that all my strength is balanced? No, no, I have no talent at all in metal, wood, water, and earth.
Moreover, the flames and thunder powers weren't mine; they were controlled by Huo Ling'er and Lei Ling'er, and had nothing to do with me. Aside from external forces, my greatest strength was my physical body and soul. But why couldn't I see anything special about them? Long
Chen stared at the runes flying around him, somewhat dumbfounded. The Divine Fire Realm is like a crossroads; you can only choose one of them. If you choose wrong, you're truly doomed.
"Whoosh."
Helpless, Long Chen continued to unleash his power. The flames around him grew even more intense, and the space began to burn. This flame was essentially a life-bound flame that could not be released for too long, or it would burn one's lifespan.
But Long Chen had to maximize the power of the flames to unleash his full potential. Without holding back a bit, it was easier to see his strongest side.
As flames erupted around Long Chen, a halo rapidly spread from Long Chen as the core, stretching for hundreds of miles in an instant. A pillar of flame shot up into the sky, creating a terrifying sight.
If someone else saw this, they'd be terrified. You have to understand, for a normal person, the range of a Divine Fire Realm is only within ten zhang, and even elite inner sect disciples usually have a flame range within a hundred zhang.
Over a thousand zhang was already terrifying, and Long Chen's flame range had already surged hundreds of miles, piercing the sky, making it hard to believe.
"Damn, why is it still like this?"
Long Chen was furious. As he wildly unleashed his power, the runes did indeed grow larger and darker, but they all grew larger together. In the end, it was impossible to tell which was stronger.
"Buzz!"
Just as Long Chen was furious and unsure what to do, the 108,000 stars within his body suddenly trembled violently. Before he could react, the countless flames were instantly absorbed by the 108,000 stars.
"Buzz buzz buzz... Long
Chen's life fire appeared on the star map, instantly shattered, and scattered across 108,000 stars.
The flames spanning hundreds of miles were divided into 108,000 parts. Compared to those massive stars, it was as if a candle was lit in the ocean—so faint.
"So the Divine Fire Realm of the Nine-Star Overlord Body Technique aims to ignite one hundred and eight thousand stars." Long Chen was overjoyed. He hadn't expected that he didn't need to do anything else—just unleash his power, and that would be enough.
However, he didn't celebrate long before Long Chen's expression changed, because he was shocked to find that his life fire was too weak to light these stars. The candle-like flame simply couldn't ignite them.
Long Chen could feel that every star was staring at that spark, like a hungry dragon staring at a sparrow, unsure whether to open its mouth.
Long Chen's mind was fully focused on the 108,000 stars, which were swirling, seemingly waiting—waiting for more flame power to ignite them.
But with so many stars, Long Chen burned his life and still couldn't ignite them. What should we do now?
Just as Long Chen's mind raced, his pores suddenly burst open, and a terrifying threat of death filled his heart. He hurriedly withdrew from the hundred-eight thousand stars.
"Pfft!"
A sharp sword stabbed into Long Chen's body, blood splattering everywhere, nearly piercing through his body.
