Chapter 1164: The Promise of the Core of the Blazing Mountain
Liu Yan felt the power within his body increase rapidly, and his heart was filled with joy.
The gains from the Divine Extraction were singular. Liu Yan’s SS-grade Fire Secret Art had been upgraded to SSS-grade Fire Elemental Law.
However, this single upgrade surpassed by far all of Liu Yan’s previous abundant gains.
This time’s advancement was tens of times greater than the rich rewards obtained from several territorial battles!
Liu Yan’s combat star level had successfully risen from the late-stage 22-star to the early- stage 24-star.
Simultaneously, with Liu Yan’s advancement to SSS-grade Fire Elemental Law, he also successfully comprehended two new skills, both of which were SSS-grade!
Before this, Liu Yan’s most potent skill was only SS-grade, lacking any SSS-grade skills. This time, not only did he gain SSS-grade skills, but he comprehended two skills at once! Liu Yan quickly examined the effects of the two newly acquired SSS-grade skills. Meanwhile, he was also curious about the potency of SSS-grade skills!
[Fire Barrier]
[Level: SSS-grade]
[Effect: Generate and condense the power of fire to form one or several indestructible Fire Barriers. They can be used for defense or offense. As time passes, more power of flames will be generated and condensed, gradually increasing their potency!]
[Fire Dragon Dance]
[Level: SSS-grade]
[Effect: Generate and condense the power of fire to form one or several raging fire dragons for devastating combat! As time passes, more power of flames will be generated and condensed, gradually increasing their potency!]
After reviewing the effects of the two newly acquired SSS-grade skills, Liu Yan was overjoyed.
From their descriptions, SSS-grade skills didn’t seem significantly different from lower-level skills.
Even the effects of these two SSS-grade skills were remarkably straightforward.
However, Liu Yan, who already wielded Fire Elemental Laws, possessed a profound understanding of fire attribute elemental power. Naturally, he could discern their extraordinary nature.
Previously, fire elemental skills, all centered around condensing fire elemental powers, harnessing the surrounding fire attribute elemental power for personal use in battle. Thus, the actual effectiveness of the skill depended on the amount of surrounding fire attribute elemental power, one’s ability to condense it, and the purity of the condensed fire attribute elemental power.
Yet, these two new SSS-grade skills operated on an entirely different principle.
They not only condensed the power of flames but also generated it.
The power of flames they directly produced was undoubtedly purer and, thus significantly more potent.
Furthermore, there was a critical distinction.
In the past, Liu Yan’s fire elemental skills involved simply condensing fire attribute elemental powers, accumulating bit by bit of fire attribute elemental powers to be gathered for combat.
However, with Liu Yan having mastered the Fire Elemental Law, he could directly generate and condense the power of flames!
Previously, he had only gathered fragments of power, but now, he was creating and condensing them piece by piece.
The essence was fundamentally different, and naturally, the power was on a completely different level!
Ultimately, these two SSS-grade skills could continuously generate and condense more power of flames as time passed. Therefore, after using these two SSS-grade skills, their power would keep increasing.
They were essentially two skills of continuous enhancement, somewhat akin to Liu Yan’s previous S-grade skill, Wood Dragon Dance. However, there were distinctions. Wood Dragon Dance was merely an S-grade skill, and its initial power couldn’t compare, nor could its subsequent growth rate.
Both SSS-grade skills, Fire Barrier and Fire Dragon Dance, were formidable fire-attribute skills, each with its unique traits.
Fire Barrier could serve both offensive and defensive purposes, making it more versatile and adaptable to various combat scenarios. Its usability was more convenient.
On the other hand, Fire Dragon Dance was a purely explosive offensive skill. Its usage was more straightforward, but it was also purer and more terrifying in terms of power.
The true power of these two SSS-grade skills could only be known after Liu Yan had truly tried to use them!
At this moment, Liu Yan gradually regained his composure and gazed at the core of the Flaming Mountain.
The core of the Flaming Mountain, upon observing Liu Yan, conveyed its message through spiritual perception.
“It’s truly miraculous. I never imagined you’d improve so much in such a short time. Your talent is truly astounding. Your future knows no bounds!”
Unaware of Liu Yan’s possession of the SSS-grade Divine Extraction, the core of the Flaming Mountain presumed that Liu Yan’s progress stemmed from observation and comprehension
alone.
In this brief period, the core of the Flaming Mountain keenly sensed the terrifying fluctuations of energy emanating from Liu Yan’s body, perceiving the staggering increase in
his strength.
Witnessing this, the core of the Flaming Mountain attributed it to Liu Yan’s exceptional talent.
Liu Yan, in response to the core of the Flaming Mountain’s astonishment, naturally concealed the truth. After all, the SSS-grade Divine Extraction remained Liu Yan’s secret. He had no intention of revealing it to anyone.
With a faint smile, Liu Yan remarked, “Fortunately, I had made ample preparations beforehand. I had always been one step away. This time, with your help, I finally made that leap I had been planning for so long. That’s why I could improve so significantly in an instant!”
“That’s also very impressive. Your talent is truly astonishing, especially in the field of fire elemental powers. Your talent is so terrifying that not to mention humans, even among mystic monsters, I have never seen such a frightening talent. Your future is destined to be limitless, destined to surpass me!”
The core of the Flaming Mountain remained astonished. Liu Yan’s performance was truly astounding.
Typically, in the domain of elemental powers, mystic monsters formed by elemental powers possessed a unique advantage that humans couldn’t match.
However, Liu Yan’s prowess shattered the core of Flaming Mountain’s preconceptions. Despite being human, his talent in fire attribute elemental powers was off the charts, defying
all expectations.
Had they not witnessed it firsthand, the core of Flaming Mountain wouldn’t have believed a human could possess such terrifying mastery over fire attribute elemental powers! Seeing this, Liu Yan remained rather low-key, without saying much. He simply thanked the core of the Flaming Mountain for aiding in his comprehension and then expressed his readiness to depart.
After all, Liu Yan’s purpose for coming here had already been achieved.
Despite significant advancements in power, facing the formidable Lakon Territory might require more strength. Liu Yan aimed to further bolster his abilities and make additional preparations.
In the face of an impending life-and-death struggle, there was no room for complacency. Every increase in strength would enhance his chances of survival. Such matters couldn’t be
taken lightly.
The core of the Flaming Mountain saw Liu Yan preparing to leave but hurriedly continued, “By the way, if that’s all, it might not be enough to repay you for saving my life last time. I’m currently in the process of enhancing myself. Once I’ve completed it, my strength will experience a significant increase. If you need any assistance at that time, feel free to contact me. I can not only help you with comprehension matters but also participate in battles!” Upon hearing this, Liu Yan was momentarily stunned, then brightened with a smile as he
readily agreed.
“Very well, I’ll certainly seek your assistance when needed!”
After bidding farewell to the core of the Flaming Mountain, Liu Yan flew straight up to the ground and left the place.
