Chapter 374: Chapter 228: Celestial Fire Enters the Cauldron (2)

However, Li Mu exerted all his efforts using the Star Nebula Observation Method’s accompanying divine thought techniques, trying various ways, yet he couldn’t break through its barrier to explore its mysteries.

Li Mu furrowed his brows; the Divine Rune True Understanding scripture involved the power of cause and effect, the power of time, and the energy barrier that crippled it was unknown. In short, this was something he couldn’t discern right now.

Li Mu sighed, stored it in the storage compartment, fearing it might need to be shelved for a while.

Li Mu then proceeded to inventory other spoils of battle.

There were as many as thirty-seven types of tier six spiritual materials, and over a hundred portions of tier five spiritual materials. The gains from this trip out of the valley were incredibly abundant. The only pity was that the Nine Yang Spirit Grass had not yet matured, and when he might break through to level six in Artifact Refining Technique remained unknown.

Li Mu thought of something and suddenly reached out, summoning the Tier Six Celestial Void Tripod from the storage compartment.

Li Mu stared at the Celestial Ruins Tripod floating in front of him, his gaze deep as he fell into contemplation.

[Celestial Void Tripod]

[Grade: Tier Six Spiritual Artifact]

[Attributes: Celestial Void Space, Void Spirit Transformation, Sacrificial Refinement of Hundred Demons, Spirit Void Refining, Void Fire to Reality.]

[Status: Nurturing a Tier Seven Fire Phoenix and Tier Six Nine Yang Spirit Grass, slightly insufficient Void Spirit Fire Primordial Power]

[The Tier Six Celestial Palace Essence Crystal, Tier Six Void Origin Soil, Tier Six Demon Suppression Stone, and Void Spirit Fire-crafted Celestial Void Tripod can refine demons into pills, refine medicine into pills, forming its own Celestial Void Spirit Realm.]

Under the Innate Divine Power – Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, the complete attribute information of the Celestial Void Tripod presented itself to Li Mu.

The Void Spirit Fire within the Celestial Void Tripod was supplying both a Tier Seven Fire Phoenix Demon Egg and a Tier Six Nine Yang Spirit Grass, causing the firepower to seem somewhat inadequate. Li Mu hesitated whether to involve Tier Seven Extreme Yang Celestial Fire in it.

Extreme Yang Celestial Fire possesses the fire devouring nature and ability to replenish its own fire element. Its firepower is extremely vigorous. Li Mu feared he couldn’t control it, and that Extreme Yang Celestial Fire might succumb to temptation, devouring both the Void Spirit Fire and the Fire Phoenix Demon Egg.

If he could persuade the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire to nurture the Tier Seven Fire Phoenix and the Nine Yang Spirit Grass, perhaps their growth rate could be further enhanced.

Li Mu hesitated for a moment, feeling somewhat confident in his Spirit Taming Contract Skill, and immediately decided to summon the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire for a try.

Li Mu directed his divine sense into his dantian, awakening the sleeping Extreme Yang Celestial Fire.

The next moment, the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire awoke, transforming into a Purple Gold Fire Phoenix emerging from within Li Mu, seeming to sense the existence of a delicacy, becoming cheerful and highly impatient.

“No, you can’t!”

Seeing the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire rushing towards the Celestial Void Tripod, heading straight for the Fire Phoenix Demon Egg, Li Mu hurriedly utilized the Spirit Taming Contract Seal’s Spiritual Soul Sharing Technique to stop the Purple Gold Fire Phoenix’s action.

The Void Spirit Fire within the Celestial Void Tripod sensed danger, as if a natural enemy appeared. It instantly retracted into the depths of the Celestial Void Tripod like a turtle hiding its head, not daring to release a trace of firepower.

“Chirp!”

The Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix chirped angrily, circling Li Mu once, emitting a bit of extreme yang fire power, slightly scorching some of his hair.

“Don’t be mad, you can’t eat these; I’ll give you something else!” Li Mu immediately comforted, reluctantly taking out two pieces of tier six fire spiritual materials, Gang Fire Red Crystal and Yang Flame Fire Element Stone, from the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl.

“Chirp chirp!”

The Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix glanced disdainfully at the two fire spiritual objects Li Mu took out, its gaze fixed intently on the Tier Seven Fire Phoenix Egg, filled with disdain, as if to say these two spiritual materials weren’t as tasty as the demon egg and Void Spirit Fire inside the tripod.

Feeling the emotion of Extreme Yang Celestial Fire and its expression, Li Mu was somewhat at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

“No, you can’t eat it! I still want to leverage your power to bring it forth quickly! Isn’t considering it a companion better? In the future, I’ll find you other ’delicacies’!” Li Mu conveyed through the Spirit Taming Contract Seal, imploring it.

After listening to Li Mu’s ’persuasion’, the Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix responded with a call, flapping its wings and hovering above the Celestial Ruins Tripod, as if pondering something.

“Chirp!”

The Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix seemed to have figured something out, suddenly looking up and calling out to Li Mu, expressing another intention.

“What! You want the Void Spirit Fire? No way!”

Li Mu ’understood’ the meaning of Extreme Yang Celestial Fire; it was willing to consider the Tier Seven Fire Phoenix an ally, but it was unsatisfied with merely two tier six fire spiritual materials and also wanted to consume the Void Spirit Fire inside the Celestial Void Tripod.

“Chirp chirp!”

Upon hearing Li Mu’s refusal, the Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix angrily raised its head, and in the next moment, the terrifying fire elemental power tilted out, causing the surrounding rock gold in the Artifact Refining Room to turn red hot, and the room temperature to rise sharply.

Li Mu’s expression changed slightly, once again feeling the terror of Extreme Yang Celestial Fire. Under the Innate Divine Power – Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, he also saw the current status of Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, undergoing a frightening transformation.

[Extreme Yang Celestial Fire]

[Grade: Tier Seven Dao Spirit]

[Attributes: Melting All Things, Extreme Yang Supreme Strength, Scorch Evil and Expel Demons, Extreme Yang Dao Principle.]

[Status: Continuously Refused, Mind Unsettled, Entering Frenzy, Willing to Harm Its Origin to Break the Spirit Artifact Seal.]

[Tier Seven Celestial Dao Flame, forged over ten thousand years, gathers the harshest and purest yang fire essence between heaven and earth, condensed with Dao principles, nurturing the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, it is the ultimate celestial fire of yang spirituality, capable of devouring other yang flames, complementing the Extreme Yang Will, and countering the ultimate yin and evil power of heaven and earth, capable of burning and refining all things in the world!]

Upon seeing the state change of Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, Li Mu’s expression immediately altered. Not daring to delay a moment, he quickly intervened, “Okay, okay, stop, let’s talk it over.”

“Chirp!”

Seeing a turn of events, the fire spirit of Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, like a child who had been coaxed, quickly gathered up its fiery ferocity, as abruptly as it had arrived.

With the assistance of Tier Seven Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, other than aiding in artifact refining, the Celestial Ruins Tripod’s other functions were too inferior. Sacrificing the Void Spirit Fire to supplement the fire source of Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, enhancing its power by another notch was feasible as well.

“Chirp chirp!”

The Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix looked at Li Mu who was thinking, and hurriedly urged.

“I know, the Void Spirit Fire can be yours, the two spiritual materials are yours as well. However, you must assume the responsibilities of Void Spirit Fire and assist in nurturing the fire phoenix egg and the Nine Yang Spirit Grass within the tripod! Can you do it?” Li Mu transmitted his divine thoughts to ’Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix’, stating.

“Chirp!”

The Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix glanced at the situation inside the Celestial Void Tripod, looked at Li Mu, and responded straightforwardly.

“Alright then! Our deal is settled!” Li Mu smiled slightly, lifting the two tier six fire spiritual materials.

“Chirp chirp!” The Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix chirped excitedly, spread its fiery wings, and dashed towards the two fire spiritual materials. In a short while, it engulfed them entirely, leaving behind some ashes.

The next second, the Purple Gold Little Fire Phoenix plunged into the Celestial Void Tripod, chirping joyfully.

The Celestial Void Tripod trembled violently, as if an agonizing wail emanated, quickly falling silent.

Soon, the body of the Celestial Void Tripod became blazing red, vibrating intensely, seemingly unable to withstand the power of the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, about to explode.

Li Mu’s pupils contracted, tightly observing the changes in the Celestial Void Tripod, transmitting divine thoughts to the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, urging it to restrain its strength and not damage the Celestial Void Tripod.

However, the divine thoughts that Li Mu sent to the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire were like sinking stones into the sea. It seemed focused on doing something, without energy to respond.

Under the Innate Divine Power – Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, Li Mu saw the changes in the Celestial Void Tripod. The Void Spirit Fire, closely linked with the artifact spirit, was devoured by Extreme Yang Celestial Fire. However, this did not lead to its collapse. The Extreme Yang Celestial Fire seemed to be refining it, creating a nest for itself?

[Celestial Void Tripod (Progressing)]

[Grade: ?]

[Attributes: Celestial Fire Realm??…]

[Status: Artifact Spirit Seized, Artifact Body Collapsing? Spirit Pattern Reshaping?]

[The Tier Six Celestial Palace Essence Crystal, Tier Six Void Origin Soil, Tier Six Demon Suppression Stone, Void Spirit Fire-crafted Celestial Void Tripod. The Void Spirit Fire dissipates, tripod patterns, and artifact arrays undergoing massive changes and restructuring…]

…

Li Mu kept a tight gaze on the changes in the Celestial Void Tripod, already aware of what Extreme Yang Celestial Fire was doing. He was quite worried that the Celestial Void Tripod would not withstand the refining of the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, causing any accidents to the Tier Seven Fire Phoenix Demon Egg and Tier Six Nine Yang Spirit Grass stored inside.

This guy is really too reckless!
