Chapter 1274: There Goes Linger Yao
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Qingfeng Li just realized that it wasn't an easy thing to comprehend the Fire Emperor Sutra because it required a high cultivation base as well as a large amount of spirit energy.
Besides controlling the flame as well as enduring the high temperature, their manipulation of the spirit energy had to be perfect as well.
Qingfeng Li had extremely strong spirit energy because the Spiritual Millstone deep in his head had been functioning the whole time to temper his spirit energy.
He kept the Golden Flame under control with his spirit energy and separated it in half with his middle finger and index finger.
The flames danced on and on. They started small but were always unequally sized.
Qingfeng Li had failed at this many times, but, after practicing, he got much better at controlling the flames with his spirit energy. He was able to divide the flames into two equal halves.
His index finger and middle finger suddenly reached out, shooting two streams of golden flames onto the ground ahead of him.
Boom! Boom!
A giant hole appeared on the ground at the noise and black smoke poured out from the hole.
The ground was made of very hard diamond rock along with meteorite, but it was melted immediately by the Golden Flame.
Qingfeng Li could only use the Golden Flame twice a day before since he wasn't able to control it. It consumed too much spirit energy, but now, he separated the Gloden Flames into two very small parts with immense power.
Boom!
Qingfeng Li raised his right palm again, commanding two tiny flames to dance in the air. However, his target was the two stone pillars far away instead of the ground this time. The flames directly penetrated two black holes into the pillars.
He needed to control the direction of the flames as well, when utilizing them. He could make use of it just like swords now by attacking in different directions, with different angles at different places.
After casting the two flames, Qingfeng Li took the Fire Emperor Sutra out again to study the method of channeling the flames.
This time, he took out three fingers-one more than just now.
With the experience from before and the method from the sutra, he shot out three rays of flames with his three fingers. However, the color and size of the flames were a bit different from each other.
Qingfeng Li wasn't discouraged by that and kept practicing. He made sure that his spirit energy was precisely taking full control of the flames and finally got the three flames to the same size.
He felt a bit fatigued and sensed a headache coming on when he was going to try separating out the fourth flame. He knew it was due to the large amount of spirit energy that he had already consumed.
It was extremely difficult to control the Golden Flame with spirit energy because it had an unusually high temperature of 5500 degrees.
Qingfeng Li had reached his limit when he shot out the three flames. In order to work with more flames, he needed to improve his spirit energy and make it stronger.
Qingfeng Li took some elixirs out of his interspatial ring, placing them into his mouth and starting to cultivate. He had gotten these from the self-cultivators he had killed before.
His spirit energy had fully recovered in a little while. He stood up, glimpsed at the Fire Emperor Sutra and then put it back inside the interspatial ring.
There were nine levels of the Fire Emperor Sutra and Qingfeng Li had only comprehended a small part of the first level. There was a lot more to learn in the future.
In the later levels of the Fire Emperor Sutra, flames can be formed into shapes of demonic beasts or weapons for attacks. However, it would take much more high-quality spirit energy, so it was out of the question for now.
Qingfeng Li turned to the other treasure he had in his hand - a red flame-like sword. It was about two fingers wide and three inches long, glowing with a faint red light.
There was a mars pattern engraved on the surface of the sword, enshrouding it in an ancient, dry aura.
Qingfeng Li knew that it was an emperor level spiritual device which was even stronger than his Red Fiery Sword. It was even as strong as the Golden Light Sword, which was the sword that once belonged to Demonic Peacock Empress.
"Fire Emperor Sword. This is the Fire Emperor Sword." Dark Night Emperor's voice echoed in Qingfeng Li's head.
Dark Night Emperor's soul had been stored inthe Red Fiery Sword, and it flew out of it all of a sudden.
The Red Fiery Sword had been damaged so it couldn't store his soul for muchlonger. There wasn't any powerful vital essence for him to absorb in it as well.
Dark Night Emperor had tried to get into the Golden Light Sword, but, due to the Demonic Peacock Empress's seal, he could not enter.
Now that Qingfeng Li had obtained the Fire Emperor Sword, Dark Night Emperor certainly wanted to get in there. The enormous vital essence inside of the Fire Emperor Sword could accommodate what was left of his soul and offer it some good rest.
"Senior, your soul may enter now," Qingfeng Li told Dark Night Emperor.
He nodded and then glimpsed at Qingfeng Li with praise. He was aware of everything that was going on even though he was inside the Red Fiery Sword.
Qingfeng Li found the treasure in the Spirit Emperor Palace and got the Spirit Emperor's legacy. Dark Night Emperor was satisfied with it.
Dark Night Emperor was both Qingfeng Li's mentor and good friend. He was the one who guided Qingfeng Li into the world of self-cultivation and had witnessed him improving little by little and becoming an undefeatable genius.
Shoo!
Dark Night Emperor's body disappeared into a ray of black light and entered the Fire Emperor Sword.
Qingfeng Li took a look at Fire Emperor Sword and did not refine it. His vital essence was not enough to do that right now.
He could only make use of it as an emperor level spiritual device and refine it when his vital essence improves.
Qingfeng Li took a last look at the red coffin. He left after three bows at the coffin.
At this moment. Linger Yao had opened up the black coffin in the cave and walked out. She was wearing a white dress.
Black Puppy, Flower Fairy, and Xianzhi Qin all appeared to be glad to see Linger Yao coming out.
They had just seen her being sucked into the black coffin by its defensive array formation and only knew that she had disappeared with Qingfeng Li.
"Where is Qingfeng Li, Linger Yao? Is he ok?" Flower Fairy's charming face looked worried and she asked.
