Cultivation Begins with Skill Points - Chapter 550: Fire Spirit
Chapter 550: Chapter 550: Fire Spirit
It felt like riding a transmission array; I just sensed a wave of spatial fluctuation before opening my eyes again to find myself in a large, empty hall.
“It’s said that Emperor Realm experts have begun to comprehend the mysteries of space, otherwise this Wuhuang Holy Tower couldn’t withstand multiple people challenging it simultaneously,” Zhong Lin thought to himself.
He entered at the same time as Gu Chen, but at this moment, he couldn’t sense Gu Chen’s presence at all.
Buzz!
As Zhong Lin was observing his surroundings, accompanied by a buzzing of scorching heat, a gigantic Fire Spirit appeared in the center of the hall.
This Fire Spirit was entirely blazing white, standing three meters tall, composed entirely of flame. Without approaching, one could already feel an extremely scorching sensation assaulting them, making it easy to believe it could melt iron and gold effortlessly, and it was much more solid compared to the Fire Spirits outside.
However, its strength…
Swish!
Zhong Lin flicked his fingers, a Sword Qi shooting from his fingertips, piercing right through the core of the Fire Spirit’s chest in the next moment.
The Fire Spirit vanished instantly without even a scream, and the passage leading to the Second Layer appeared before Zhong Lin.
Zhong Lin did not hesitate either, considering it was the First Layer, and the guarding Fire Spirit’s power wasn’t too high.
The layout of the Second Layer was no different from the First Layer, still an empty hall crafted from an unknown reddish-brick material, with a warm sensation when stepped on. Zhong Lin tried to break it but didn’t leave a mark, after all, it was the Heavenly Destiny Imperial Artifact.
“Roar!”
This Fire Spirit, though slightly stronger than the Early Stage Xuandan Realm strength of the First Layer, was still only a Mid Stage Xuandan Realm strength, yet it was still defeated by a single Sword Qi.
Zhong Lin continued to proceed with hands behind his back, stepping into the Third Layer, Fourth Layer…
Outside the Wuhuang Holy Tower, many Martial Artists who had been kicked out were watching closely.
“Hiss! It’s worthy of him; his speed in challenging is so fast, nearly surpassing a layer every breath, far exceeding other prodigies.”
“Naturally, he is the Sixth Saint Heir of Heavenly Sword Sacred Land. His cultivation hasn’t exceeded a century; otherwise, he wouldn’t have achieved such accomplishments.”
“Less than a century, how is that possible?”
“Indeed, Zhong Lin’s rise was too rapid, catching you off guard. You would know his strength if you understood.”
“May I ask who you are?”
“Not talented, I am Chi Zhonglin, Chi Zhonglin of ’goldfish in a pond,’ a disciple of Sword Pavilion in Heavenly Sword Sacred Land.”
Chi Zhonglin, just kicked out of the Wuhuang Holy Tower, dusted off himself proudly.
“Sword Pavilion? Is it the Sword Pavilion with two Kings from Heavenly Sword Sacred Land?”
“Yes, Thunder Sword King is my master, Sword Slaughter King is my senior brother, and Zhong Lin is my junior brother.”
“Oh, a pupil of Sword Pavilion. I apologize for my ignorance. I apologize.”
“No worries, no worries. Didn’t you want to know about Zhong Lin? Let me tell you how he snatched the Undying Evil Emperor’s inheritance from God Desolate King back then…”
“Wait a moment, are you saying Zhong Lin is the one who obtained the Undying Evil Emperor’s inheritance back then?”
“Oh, so you know!”
In just a short moment, everyone had a new understanding of Zhong Lin from Chi Zhonglin’s narration, not merely the previously known Nirvana Realm great ability, but a more complete image.
Born as a Loose Cultivator, pill mastering as a First Rank, Eighth Rank Alchemist, Evil Emperor inheritance, Sealing King Expert dying rather than submitting, Spirit Domain…
Especially when knowing Zhong Lin had comprehended the embryonic form of domains while in the Yin Yang Realm, with hopes of sealing King in the future, everyone was stunned.
“Look, Senior Brother Zhong has reached the ninety-sixth layer; is it possible he will gain another Emperor’s Inheritance?”
“Wait, who is the person behind Senior Brother Zhong? He’s reached the ninety-fifth layer too?”
“I know him; he is that Gu Chen from Xuanming Holy Land. How did he accomplish this despite being only at the Life and Death Realm?”
Life and Death Realm is not very remarkable in the Wuhuang Secret Realm; each Holy Land has prodigious figures likewise, even many have reached the Ninth Layer Heaven of Life and Death Realm and nearly Nirvana Realm cultivation, yet none have ventured this far in the tower.
Under everyone’s shocked gaze, Gu Chen entered the ninety-eighth layer while Zhong Lin astonishingly reached the ninety-ninth layer.
This shocked them and aroused tremendous envy since it’s Wuhuang’s legacy, a major event influencing the entire Qingyuan World!
Meanwhile, various Heavenly Lands’ prodigious figures kicked out now wore extremely black faces, filled with disappointment.
With the two realms’ void passage opening soon, whoever captures the Wuhuang inheritance would survive better in the upcoming two-realm battle.
The ninety-ninth layer of Wuhuang Holy Tower.
This layer was not like the large halls below but resembled an inner bound small world of the Form and Spirit Sect, with nothing but endless yellow sand as far as the eye could see.
“Roar!”
The primal, ancient, ferocious roar echoed throughout the Secret Realm world, embodied with a terrifying force, as if the Secret Realm humbly trembled under this power.
The ground quakes grew increasingly pronounced alongside the roar, scorching waves surged from afar in layers.
In the distance, a red hue, higher than the horizon, spread like a tidal wave across the horizon encompassing all areas, with white steam rising atop this red “tide.” Deep within the void, dreadfully twisted, as if a piece of glaze was being heated red hot.
Incessant heat waves rolled from afar; even the edges of the land turned red like cinnabar, and the air was astoundingly dry.
“Roar!”
Another booming roar rang fiercely from afar; visible waves radiated extremely rapidly, shaking the ground as sound waves extended directionally, forming immense cracks.
Earthshattering!
Zhong Lin’s face turned solemn as well, his body floated up, shaking out ripples, and sped forth.
A moment later, a vast, boundless red flow of flames surged majestically at the center of the land, truly an ocean of fire.
The earth burned, air ignited, everything was ablaze.
Its terrifying heat radiated outward as if it would incinerate everything; what sight fell on were brilliantly red lights, making it hard to discern shapes.
Around this magma-formed ocean, no vegetation could be seen; the earth’s grains were distinct, entirely made of Fire Sand, while at the ocean’s edge drifted dense unyielding blue smoke.
Despite having cultivated the “Five Elements Undying”, beads of sweat like rain poured from Zhong Lin’s forehead, instantly evaporated into white smoke upon falling, rendering him like meat roasting inside a furnace.
Martial Artists possess profound resistance to heat and cold, let alone Nirvana Realm warriors, and Zhong Lin had already polished “Undying Scripture” to the Fourth Layer’s “Five Elements Undying” realm, which grants immense resistance against the Five Elements Power, yet he still couldn’t withstand it fully, revealing the exceedingly high temperature.
