Chapter 187 Refinement
s.h.i.+ Yan didn’t know what was special about “Refinement”.
From inside the Blood Vein Ring, the Ice Cold Flame kept sending messages to instruct s.h.i.+ Yan on how to refine.
According to the Ice Cold Flame’s instruction, s.h.i.+ Yan triggered th power of the earth core fire and pushed it into his veins.
Some minor veins seemed to burn after the fire power came in, and the pain was intolerable.
If his body had not been refined once by the cold power of the Ice Cold Flame on the Munro Island, he could have been burnt by the earth core fire.
The cold power of the Ice Cold Flame had filled his limbs and entails, so when the earth core fire flew in his body, his temperature didn’t surge rapidly.
And that’s why s.h.i.+ Yan’s flesh and veins were not melted though he was enduring incredible pain, which the Ice Cold Flame had foreseen.
It dared let s.h.i.+ Yan refine with the earth core fire as it knew s.h.i.+ Yan’s body was extraordinary with the cold power, which could help him cool down when burnt with fire.
The Ice Cold Flame knew the cold power was enough to prevent s.h.i.+ Yan’s veins and blood from melting, but it couldn’t soften his pain.
He had to go through the pain of burning, and the cold power would strengthen the pain.
Inside the hard ice, little flames came out from s.h.i.+ Yan’s body, and he looked as red as if he was burning in fire.
Dehydration made s.h.i.+ Yan’s body skinny as he operated Rampage.
As the fire was burning in his body, s.h.i.+ Yan kept bellowing, as his eyes turned red and his face hideous.
The Ice Cold Flame kept silent and felt the changes in s.h.i.+ Yan’s body, as his body was forming natural power of defense.
s.h.i.+ Yan’s body had turned dark brown. The moment the flame permeated his body, his Petrification Martial Spirit was triggered.
However, as the flame burnt greatly, his dark brown skin turned red.
The Ice Cold Flame noticed the changes in s.h.i.+ Yan’s body, as the fire got stronger and stronger, s.h.i.+ Yan’s Petrification Martial Spirit started operating to weaken the pain on his body.
Meanwhile, the Immortal Martial Spirit in s.h.i.+ Yan’s body seemed to be awaken as well.
The Ice Cold Flame also gradually settled down.
It was not careful when it handed the “Refinement” to s.h.i.+ Yan, because it thought s.h.i.+ Yan would give up soon after he found he couldn’t bear it.
It was out of its expectation that s.h.i.+ Yan preserved more than others, for he could keep sober even under the torturing of the earth core fire.
The two Martial Spirits took effect gradually, so the Ice Cold Flame came to know, that as long as s.h.i.+ Yan could endure the burning of the fire, the two Martial Spirits would be triggered, and increase his ability.
As his body was refined and his martial Spirits enhanced, s.h.i.+ Yan’s ability surged greatly.
Since they made a deal, the Ice Cold Flame knew that s.h.i.+ Yan’s would keep up his word, and it became friendly with s.h.i.+ Yan.
Now, it was sealed in s.h.i.+ Yan’s Blood Vein Ring so it can’t conduct its power.
Before it got out of the Blood Vein Ring, it hoped that s.h.i.+ Yan would be fine.
Once s.h.i.+ Yan got into accident, it couldn’t get out of the Blood Vein Ring anymore. Even if the Blood Vein Ring had a new master, he may not spare it.
Therefore, to increase s.h.i.+ Yan’s ability as possible as it could was the best choice for it.
And it did so.
s.h.i.+ Yan felt like a century had pa.s.sed.
There was no earth core fire outside, and the fire inside s.h.i.+ Yan’s body was consumed up.
After the torment, this short quiet time was very precious to s.h.i.+ Yan.
“What’s up?” His spirit went into the Blood Vein Ring to ask the Ice Cold Flame.
“Take a rest. You should communicate with the earth core fire and connect your perception with it. Before the earth core fire formed its life, you have to leave your mark in it to let it remember you.”
“Good.”
Soon, s.h.i.+ Yan finished communicating with the Ice Cold Flame. Then he concentrated to approach the flame crystal jade.
Once his perception touched the Flame Crystal Jade, the earth core fire inside the jade became like a smiling face.
The earth core fire was changing inside the flame crystal jade, and now it became a smiling face, appeared very happy.
s.h.i.+ Yan’s spirit felt its delightment.
This time the earth core fire was attached to s.h.i.+ Yan so much, as it wrapped s.h.i.+ Yan’s spirit and played happily with it.
s.h.i.+ Yan had no coice but to stay.
Until s.h.i.+ Yan’s spirit got tired and the earth core fire has exhausted itself, s.h.i.+ Yan’s spirit took the chance to leave.
“It’s too tiresome this time.”
“Have you noticed that it loves you more? And it regards you as famly. Do you notice it?” From inside the Blood Vein Ring came the Ice Cold Flame’s voice.
“Yeah I do.”
“Good.” The Ice Cold Flame seemed to know this would happen, “Your body is refined by the earth core fire for a while, so your body and your spirit power had obtained a touch of the earth core fire. Naturally it loves that smell and treat you as family.”
s.h.i.+ Yan was stunned.
“I ask you to refine with the fire to gain its trust. Only when it was in your body and got familiar with you, will it take you as a friend.” The Ice Cold Flame said slowly, “therefore, you have to be more devoted. “Refinement” could strengthen your body and enhance your Martial Spirits, and you can make friends with the earth core fire.”
“Yeah I know what to do.”
“Good. I will add more earth core fire.”
s.h.i.+ Yan nodded firmly, “Let’s begin.”
The next moment, overwhelming fire power came from all directions.
This time, the fire power was extremely ferocious and wrapped s.h.i.+ Yan in an instant.
The intense fire became another armor on the surface of his body, seperating him from the hard ice.
“Let’s start.” The Ice Cold Flame sent the message.
s.h.i.+ Yan closed his eyes and pushed the earth core fire into his veins.
There were no sun and stars in the magma pond, so there was no concept of time there.
At the bottom of the pond, s.h.i.+ Yan was training with “Refinement” hard, and everytime he took some rest, he would let his spirit communicate with the earth core fire.
Day and night.
“Refinement” tempered one’s body, and the exchange of spirit power and earth core fire consumed a lot of spirit power.
s.h.i.+ Yan brutally used all his energy to train his body and spirit.
On the other day.
He was operating the “Refinement” again.
This time, when the earth core fire flew inside his veins, his spirit found something special.
The Spirit Power was exploring in his blood and flesh.
Suddenly, his blood and flesh was exaggerated greatly, and he could see every cell and the fibric of his flesh.
He could feel the minimum things inside his body.
One piece of flesh was expanded greatly, s.h.i.+ Yan could see the cells, fabrics and milky water drops.
Milky water drops!
They were even smaller than cells, giving out special smell. s.h.i.+ Yan’s spirit went down into the milky drops and carefully felt them.
It’s the power from the Mysterious Martial Spirit!
Everytime when the meridians absorbed much Profound Qi, there would be this strange power from his meridians.
This energy could trigger and enhance the Martial Spirit and trengthen the Profound Qi!
Those milky water were just the strange power from the meridians! They were separated in his cells and fabrics in the form of milky water drops.
“What’s that?” From the Blood Vein Ring came the thought of the Ice Cold Flame, “There was magical power inside those milky water drops. And the power seems beneficial to your body. You just try to melt it and fill it in your cells!”
