Chapter 231 - Explode! Explode! Explode!
Chapter 231: Explode! Explode! Explode!
Within the lava pit, it was filled with boiling lava and blazing Earth Fire which would fume with green smoke. The spacious lava pit would be illuminated by the Earth Fire as though it was bright as day time.
In the boiling lava, a three-meter-long giant bird was entrenched above the lava while its body was emitting red light as it recuperated by absorbing the Earth Fire. On the other side was a man wearing a demon mask and splendid black armor, with half his body immersed in the lava. One of his hands was wielding a longsword that had fire dragons swimming in it while the other hand held a jade talisman that glowed with golden light—spinning golden wordings flying towards the big bird like snowflakes. Endless Earth Fire surged towards this man, only to vanish into his body.
The Earth Fire was absorbed very quickly, solidifying the surrounding lava and causing Jiang Yi to float up and stand on top of the lava ground. The Fire Phoenix was severely injured and immobilized by the aura suppression from the Massacre Intent and Fire Dragon Sword, making it extremely easy to tame.
“Chirp-Chirp!”
As numerous golden wordings constantly entered the Fire Phoenix, causing the body of the Fire Phoenix—which was actually closing its eyes from the weakness—to suddenly tremble. Letting out a loud and clear calling while the ferocious aura gradually vanished.
Jiang Yi’s eyes lit up, but he didn’t have any idea that imminent danger was about to arrive as he even felt frustrated. He thought that he should have spared the other Fire Phoenix and tamed it as well, giving him the strength to easily torture a Soul Travel Realm expert to death.
“Tsk-Tsk!”
As the wordings constantly shot out, the taming was going smoothly. When the final wording entered the Fire Phoenix’s body, the Fire Phoenix glowed with a red light while Jiang Yi could feel a trace of mental connection with this Fire Phoenix.
Right at this moment…
Jiang Yi’s mind had this sudden sharp pain, which felt like his soul spirit was being torn apart. This pain was a few folds more intense than the first time the Nameless Divine Art was awakened. His body tumbled in lava; if it wasn’t for the Fire Spirit Pearl which protected his body, he would have been instantly incinerated into ashes.
“What is happening?”
Jiang Yi was greatly appalled as he felt there were two energies trying to fight for the claims to his soul spirit. There was something that made him even more despaired: the Fire Spirit Pearl’s mysterious energy which seemed to lose its effect after the golden light surged in his soul spirit. That sharp pain got worse and was seemingly going to split his soul spirit into two in the next second, crumbling it immediately.
Jiang Yi didn’t know that it wasn’t the mysterious energy from the Fire Spirit Pearl that failed, but that his soul spirit wasn’t suffering from any external attack. The attack was coming from within his soul spirit… as Big Huang and the Fire Phoenix’s soul essences were in conflict.
The Fire Spirit Pearl’s mysterious energy was just like a guard dog, which would chase away and tear away at any external forces. Now that it was a fight between two children in the house, it had no choice but to look on helplessly. Big Huang and the Fire Phoenix both had the Jiang Yi’s soul spirit aura in their soul essences and were both Jiang Yi’s spirit beasts; which of them was the mysterious energy supposed to help?
Now that these two children didn’t give in to each other and even fought within the house, the victim was Jiang Yi. If these two children were to thrash up this house into pieces, Jiang Yi’s soul spirit would split into pieces, too. Let alone the Fire Spirit Pearl’s protection, even an immortal wouldn’t be able to save him.
“What should I do? What should I do?”
Jiang Yi forced himself to calm down, if he wasn’t able to come up with an idea in this crucial period, there was only death waiting for him. No one desired for death, and on the brink of death was when the mind of most people would be revolving the fastest. With every spark in Jiang Yi’s mind, hundreds of ideas flashed in his mind as he looked for the best method to break out of this situation.
Only… if it had been any other situation, he would have been able to settle it. The soul spirit was the most mystical thing that was invisible and untouchable, not even when one was at the Purple Mansion Realm that allowed inner vision. The human body was important, but the soul spirit was even more important. When a body was handicapped, they would at most become a cripple; but if the soul spirit was damaged, they would either be a retard, be in a vegetative state, or even die if there were any mishaps.
After thinking in various angles, Jiang Yi realized that in order to restrain the two soul essence’s struggle, he must borrow external energies to strengthen his soul spirit. There were no other ways!
The problem was he didn’t have any soul spirit nourishment, and the mysterious energy in the Fire Spirit Pearl was regretfully useless now!
“Ah…”
The sharp pain was getting more intense in Jiang Yi’s mind, and he was like a carp that was dropped into a deep fryer as he tumbled around in the lava pit. Lava was stirred up by him as he splashed around while the Massacre Intent in his eyes had been dismissed, but his eyes remained bloodshot like a vicious apparition.
Black essence force? That’s right, I still have the black essence force!
There was a thought that suddenly flashed in his mind. In such a situation, his only way was to utilize the black essence force to break this struggle. This black essence force was extremely mystical, and if he was able to channel a wisp of it into his soul spirit, he might be able to suppress the commotion in his soul spirit.
However… the black essence force was all within the small purple mansion. Once it was channeled out, it would immediately turn into blue essence force, losing all the effects of the black essence force; hence, he was no longer able to utilize the black essence force.
“What should I do now?”
Jiang Yi’s heart was burning up urgently while his mind had this idea. It was a very definite idea… if he didn’t rescue himself, his soul spirit would crumble; and he would fall in this volcano of the Mt. Fire Cloud.
“It doesn’t matter anymore!”
In this moment of life and death, a crazy thought emerged from Jiang Yi minds. Since the black essence force couldn’t be channeled out, he only had one method: to make the two purple mansions explode, reverting back to the Cast Tripod Realm so that he could channel the black essence force again.
Condensing the purple mansion was difficult, and if the purple mansion exploded, wouldn’t it be even more difficult to condense it again? It was possible that his dantian might explode along with his body, but what other methods did he have?
If he reverted to the Cast Tripod Realm, he would have the chance to condense the purple mansion again. If he couldn’t save himself, he would die immediately!
“Explode then, explode then!”
Jiang Yi revealed a smear of determination. Since he was going to die, he didn’t bother about anything else. He separated a trace of his consciousness and immersed it into the two purple mansions. He controlled the energy inside and frantically smashed at the purple mansion, causing it to explode, reverting to the Cast Tripod Realm.
“Incapable of empty chants, break the essence and self-sustain, stars shining, primal chaos immortal opportunity, casting the power of the nine yang…”
Right at his moment, the black wordings suddenly appeared in Jiang Yi’s mind while his body shuddered. He had this sudden comprehension of the third rank of the Nameless Divine Art, which he couldn’t figure out after nearly ten days of deciphering.
“It’s wrong—it’s all wrong! I had been on the wrong road and comprehending in the wrong direction. I originally thought that the third rank of the Nameless Divine Art was a chant to assist in cultivation. Bullsh*t! This third rank wasn’t a cultivation chant, but a chant to reform the purple mansion in the dantian.” It was a technique that was meant to reform the purple mansion in the dantian. ‘Break the essence and self-sustain’ was precisely to reform a new purple mansion in the dantian, which meant he had to make the current purple mansion explode? “Explode then! Just explode, go ahead and explode! Explode! Explode…!”
Jiang Yi roared out in a frenzy while both his purple mansions in the dantian suddenly exploded. All the energy inside gushed out frantically, condensing a few formidable forces that charged around violent in his dantian, wreaking havoc like a few dragons rolling in the sea. Jiang Yi’s dantian began to swell and contract continuously like it was going explode at any moment, blasting Jiang Yi to death.
“Stars shining, primal chaos immortal opportunity, casting the power of the nine yang… condense for this young master, condense, condense, condense…”
Jiang Yi didn’t have any trace of frenetic in his heart, but he didn’t care about anything else right now either. He went according to his comprehension of the third rank of the Nameless Divine Art, reforming the purple mansion in his dantian.
