Chapter 567 - 565: Infinite Fire Realm

Chapter 567: Chapter 565: Infinite Fire Realm

Su Qing gazed at the Spirit Flowers, lost in thought.

’Forget it.’

’I’ll just let the Spiritual Qi dissipate.’

’The Array Plate can guard this place.’

’The Duanmu Family probably covets this Spiritual Qi.’

’I just hope they can cultivate to a higher level of strength and absorb more of the Spiritual Qi.’

’Otherwise, they’re going to suffer for it.’

’The Spiritual Qi growing denser is a mixed blessing, I suppose.’

Su Qing’s life had become much more eventful.

Especially after he obtained the Fire of Devouring Nothingness.

Su Qing realized that any synthesized Rule-based Flame had to be incorporated, so long as it didn’t have negative effects.

In a single year, he had devoured over a thousand types of Rule-based Flames.

At the same time, Su Qing noticed that the speed at which he digested poisons was becoming faster and faster.

His Skill Level kept rising.

It got to the point where he could digest one Tier Thirteen poison every day.

With over a hundred points of Skill Level per day, he was gaining more than thirty thousand a year.

Su Qing’s Eternal Immortal Skill Level was at 290,000. He was only about ten years away from Perfection.

’Almost there.’

"The Fire of Devouring Nothingness is getting more and more powerful." Su Qing could clearly feel that his Fire of Devouring Nothingness was exceptionally potent.

It was like one flame’s appearance could manifest ten thousand more.

’I wonder if I can create Ten Thousand Layers of Fire, building on the foundation of my Ten Thousand Layers of Water.’

Su Qing fell into thought.

He was researching whether he could try to stack the Ten Thousand Layers of Fire.

The Ten Thousand Layers of Water was already absurdly powerful. Even after Su Qing had experienced the temporal torrent of the Chaos World, his Ten Thousand Layers of Water Divine Techniques had only reached the 3,123rd layer.

A single drop of that Ten Thousand Layers of Water could probably turn this entire region to nothingness.

’Stacking is the true path.’ Su Qing felt his Great Thousand Immortal Realm Dao Foundation.

His mind was racing.

He felt he could create the Ten Thousand Layers of Fire.

’If my thoughts aren’t enough, I’ll use the Eternal Dao Chaotic Immortal Qi to make up the difference!’

With the support of the Eternal Dao Chaotic Immortal Qi, Su Qing felt his thoughts become even clearer.

....

「One month later!」

"Perfect!"

[Ten Thousand Layers of Fire Realm: Divine Technique. Establishes a Grand Thousand Fire Realm, shaping it into the Ten Thousand Layers of Fire Realm. Utilizes a Quantitative Method to forge an Infinite Technique. Can only be shaped with the Eternal Dao Chaotic Immortal Qi.]

[Synthesizable]

"It’s synthesizable!"

"I have to synthesize this!"

He activated Immortal Transformation.

He replicated the Ten Thousand Layers of Fire Realm once.

’Wow, I can replicate it, but it’s incredibly draining.’

[Synthesis Successful: Immortal Transformation Triggered]

[Infinite Fire Realm: Great Divine Technique. In the name of fire, shape an Infinite Grand Thousand Fire Realm. Flame quality must reach Tier Thirteen.]

"Extract."

Without a second thought, Su Qing extracted it. With the help of the Eternal Dao Chaotic Immortal Qi, he began to master the Great Divine Technique, Infinite Fire Realm.

Another month passed.

With the help of the Eternal Dao Chaotic Immortal Qi, Su Qing successfully comprehended the Infinite Fire Realm.

Su Qing exclaimed in amazement, "As expected of a Great Divine Technique. I’m afraid even for those in the Grand Thousand Realm, a technique like this is rare."

"No, that’s not right. I haven’t even reached the Grand Thousand Realm, and I’m already thinking on their behalf?"

"How ridiculous."

When Su Qing summoned the Fire of Devouring Nothingness, the flame was already a deep black from having devoured so many other flames.

When the Fire of Devouring Nothingness appeared, Space and Time themselves began to warp, as if it would tear open the Star Sea World in the next moment.

’It’s getting stronger and stronger. I’m worried that if it keeps devouring, I’ll be thrown back into the Chaos World.’

Su Qing pondered the Fire of Devouring Nothingness in his hand.

In his hand, it split in two, becoming two wisps of the Fire of Devouring Nothingness.

’Let’s use the current Fire of Devouring Nothingness to establish the First Layer Fire Realm.’

The two flames intertwined. Surprisingly, instead of merging back into a single Fire of Devouring Nothingness, they began to coalesce into the prototype of a world. At the same time, numerous illusory Space-Time Veins appeared, much like one would see in the formation of a Grand Thousand Realm.

Countless Dao patterns appeared and intertwined within Su Qing’s eyes as a flame materialized in his hand, controlling the world prototype.

In the end.

The Fire of Devouring Nothingness Realm appeared.

It was still a ball of fire—at least, that’s how it looked on the surface.

However, it had no temperature or any discernible effect. What rested in Su Qing’s hand was merely the illusory shadow of a flame.

The true flame had already begun to evolve into a Grand Thousand Fire Realm, intertwining, devouring, and overlapping other fire realms.

A single layer of the fire realm doubled the intensity of the Fire of Devouring Nothingness.

Even its Rule-based power was slightly enhanced with the stacking of the fire realms.

’I’m on the right track.’

’But the Infinite Fire Realm will probably become harder and harder to advance later on.’

Currently, Su Qing’s process involved ingesting a poison to synthesize a Rule Flame, raising it to Tier Thirteen, then having the Fire of Devouring Nothingness devour it to expand the Infinite Fire Realm.

The process was very slow; at most, he could only create a few flames per day.

The improvement was pitifully small.

’The essence of the Infinite Fire Realm is "infinite." At my current speed of synthesizing flames, I’m afraid that even after tens of thousands of years, I might not be able to advance it by a single layer.’

’I must diversify the types of fire realms, use my Divine Techniques to evolve a Grand Thousand, and then use the Fire of Devouring Nothingness Realm to cultivate the Infinite Fire Realm.’

This was what Su Qing had thought from the beginning, and it was what he did.

Another year passed.

He spent nearly every day synthesizing different flames and shaping fire realms.

By now, he had an immense number of fire realms.

And they were of many different types as well.

’I have more than enough flames now. The only thing left is to evolve a Grand Thousand.’

Su Qing stopped synthesizing flames.

His current fire realms were sufficient to evolve a Grand Thousand. All Su Qing needed to do was take the primary fire realm—the one based on the Fire of Devouring Nothingness—and continuously stack it with the others.

This process would be no less long and arduous than the one for his Ten Thousand Layers of Water.

It was simply an excruciating process.

Su Qing had already split his consciousness five ways to handle these matters.

His main self, meanwhile, only needed to consume poisons and increase his Skill Level.

His Skill Level had reached 330,000. Back when it hit 320,000, a method for opening up his own Space-Time Veins had emerged within his soul.

It also came with a few rules.

All of which required careful attention.

The most crucial point was that to truly evolve a Grand Thousand, he must not incur any karmic debt within the Space-Time Veins he created—not even for a single blade of grass or piece of wood.

None whatsoever.

Otherwise, the evolution would fail.

Secondly, the process of opening the Space-Time Veins had to be done in the Chaos World. No existence within the Great Thousand Worlds was capable of supporting someone else in the creation of their own world.

It could only be done in the Chaos World. When one could withstand the Breath of Chaos alone, it signified they had met one of the conditions for ascending to the Grand Thousand Realm.

’I have the Eternal Dao Chaotic Immortal Qi, so I already more than meet this condition.’

’However, it seems I still lack the power required to establish a Great Thousand World.’

The method Su Qing obtained could be described as this: reversing the past within the space-time he had personally experienced to create a brand-new world.

That was the first step. The second was repaying karmic debts, and the third was evolving the Grand Thousand.

From then on, one would have reached the Grand Thousand Realm.

This would grant him a foothold in the Chaos World and introduce countless new possibilities. It might even allow for beings to emerge from within Su Qing’s own Space-Time Veins who could also gain a foothold in the Chaos World.

’But that’s not a problem for me to worry about right now.’

’My Cultivation Technique has yet to reach Perfection. If it still can’t provide the power needed to create a Grand Thousand after it’s perfected, I’ll have no choice but to synthesize the Cultivation Technique again.’

’So, I’m not in a hurry.’

Su Qing remained calm. With his current strength, he could still forge ahead on his own.

However, he had a feeling that reaching Perfection with his Eternal Immortal Skill this time would be enough to meet the requirements for his breakthrough.

But Su Qing didn’t want to get his hopes up, lest the disappointment be that much greater.

"Hm?"

’Here again.’

Su Qing saw Chaos Residual Spirits appear in the starry sky again. The moment they manifested, their target was clear—they were obviously coming for him.

’Coming for me?’

Su Qing suddenly recalled the description of the Chaos Residual Spirits: neither dead nor alive, possessing only hatred.

’Have the Chaos Residual Spirits locked onto me?’

’Is it just because I wiped them out that one time?’
