Chapter 597 "Refine" And "Melting"
The small ball of earthy yellow flame floating in front of "Lu Xin" at this moment is naturally the earth fire he created after he felt the true source of flame. However, this small ball of flame cannot be completely called earth fire now. It is just stronger than the fire seed. It is quite appropriate to describe it as a "flame".
But it can also be seen that the current ball of earth fire is much stronger than when "Lu Xin" created it. This is naturally related to the recent ascension of "Lu Xin"'s cultivation, and secondly, it is inseparable from the fact that "Lu Xin" has always placed it in the Suanni Ding to slowly strengthen it.
"Alas, the speed is still too slow. At this rate, even if I really reach the time when I can step into the earth cultivation, you still can't reach the level I want, and it can't be considered a true great success." There was a slightly deep glow in his eyes. "Lu Xin" looked at the flame in front of him that was as big as a baby's fist, and finally shook his head helplessly.
Since the earth fire was created, "Lv Xin" has been paying attention to and strengthening the earth fire in his body all the time. However, the more he tried, the more he felt the difficulty of creating it out of thin air. Even if he had completely created the prototype of the earth fire, it was so difficult to strengthen it to perfection. At least, he didn't know when he would be able to do it by relying on his subtle and repeated strengthening.
In fact, "Lv Xin" finally made up his mind to go into seclusion to strengthen the earth fire, and relied on his own method to cultivate it to perfection in a short time, because he found that strengthening the earth fire was not as simple as he had imagined before.
Although the method that "Lv Xin" thought of still mainly relied on the true source of fire to create, it also had to use the many materials floating around him, and also added his understanding of materials as a weapon fairy and his attainments in identifying materials to a considerable extent. So in general, this time's strengthening of the earth fire is not only a kind of improvement and practice for "Lv Xin", but also a bit like refining a weapon.
This approach is naturally a unique way. If it succeeds, "Lu Xin" will get what he wants in a short time and get the real great earth fire he wants. But the success rate of doing so is probably not high, and it can even be said to be extremely risky. Because no one has ever created fire in this way, this method is completely "Lu Xin" himself based on his experience and understanding, and no one has ever really witnessed whether it can succeed.
It's just that "Lu Xin"'s personality is like this. He knows that practicing Taoism is difficult. If he is timid, he can't do anything, let alone surpass others. He has been practicing Taoism all his life. He has opportunities and good fortune, but the most important thing is to rely on his persistent heart of practicing Taoism, as well as his extraordinary understanding and courage. "Lu Xin" has never been afraid of failure, he is only afraid that he will stagnate. And for the sake of progress, as long as it is a method he has determined, he will not hesitate to implement it even if it is a life-threatening situation.
"As long as these materials are added to the earth fire one by one, if the earth fire does not collapse, then my earth fire will be fully developed because of the power of these materials and the more flame power I have delivered. But if it fails..." After talking to himself here, "Lu Xin" suddenly smiled bitterly and did not continue. He knew that if he failed, the best result would be that the earth fire he had created with great difficulty would be completely destroyed, and everything he had paid before would be in vain. All things related to the earth fire would have to start all over again.
Without thinking any more, "Lu Xin"'s face soon showed a decisive look, and then he opened his mouth again and spit out a ball of blood-red flames, floating on the right side of the earth-yellow flames.
The blood-red flames are naturally the outer fire, which is also what "Lu Xin" wants to use to strengthen the fundamental power of the earth fire.
The reason why the outer fire was chosen instead of the Yin Luo ghost fire was not to fuse the two fires like the first creation. In fact, there is no particularly complicated reason. After all, the current "Lü Xin" has completely understood the true source of fire, and has completely stepped on such a realm, so now for him, there is no difference between the sky-flowing fire and the Yin Luo ghost fire, they are all flames of the same origin, and they can also provide the required flame power for the strengthening of the ground fire.
With a wave of his hand, a pile of sand flew over from behind "Lü Xin" and was caught in his left hand. This sand is called Qianzhang Dust, which is the material that "Lü Xin" requested in the largest amount this time. It comes from at least a thousand feet underground on the island of Xiu Mo Hai.
"Lü Xin" only knew about the existence of Qianzhang Dust after he came to hell. This kind of thing is actually very ordinary, because it is not rare, but it is generally easy to find it in places thousands of feet underground or even deeper, and there are quite a lot of them. Moreover, this kind of thing can neither be used as medicine nor is it used by weapon masters for forging, so there are few places where it can work.
But to say that this kind of thing is not ordinary, there is a certain reason. After all, it is not possible to reach the thousand feet underground just by talking about it. To obtain this thousand feet dust, even a cultivator like "Lv Xin" would have to spend some effort. Moreover, the earth attribute of the thousand feet dust is extremely strong, as if it is the essence of the soil in hell. If we only talk about the earth attribute, there is rarely anything in hell that can compare with it.
"Fire!" With a flick of his finger, the burning fire from the sky split into a small group, and soon came to the right hand of "Lu Xin".
Looking at the small group of fire from the sky on his right hand, "Lu Xin" quickly and decisively pressed all the thousand-foot dust in his left hand into the fire from the sky. A "crackling" sound rang out, accompanied by the slight movement of the blood-red flames. This is a phenomenon that will inevitably occur when two completely different things come into contact with each other.
Not paying attention to this phenomenon at all, "Lu Xin"'s eyes quickly focused on the fire from the sky, and his spiritual power carefully surged out, controlling the flame on his right hand, and whispered: "Refine!"
As soon as the word came out, the fire from the sky was like a spirit, and began to jump more violently, and the thousand-foot dust wrapped by it was soon burned into a pile of ashes. However, this pile of ashes did not fall under the control of "Lu Xin's" spiritual power, but still floated in the flames.
As "Lu Xin"'s spiritual power continued to increase, the ashes began to slowly transform into liquid, and after the liquid, they slowly turned into gas. This skill is quite similar to the way Wei Bing controlled fire and refined materials with one hand. This is also the best proof that "Lu Xin", as a sword-making master, has mastered fire control and refining.
When the thousand-foot dust was completely transformed into gas, it was still under the control of "Lu Xin"'s spiritual power and was still tightly wrapped in the outer fire. At this step, "Lu Xin" took a few deep breaths of air. He knew that he had now completed the first step of the first material.
After a moment of silence, "Lu Xin" still raised his right hand, but his eyes slowly closed. However, the moment his eyes closed, a sharp consciousness rushed out from his consciousness and surged onto the outer fire in his right hand.
"Melt!" He uttered another word lightly. "Lu Xin"'s spiritual power still controlled the blood-red flame on his right hand and the thousand-foot dust gas in the flame. However, what can be found this time is that "Lu Xin" has an extra feeling in his manipulation of spiritual power, and this feeling is called "delicate".
Now "Lu Xin" is doing is to let the outer fire in his hand merge with the thousand-foot dust gas. Once he succeeds in the fusion, the outer fire in his hand will no longer be the outer fire, but the outer fire with a strong earth attribute. At that time, as long as he erases the original attribute of the outer fire, the flame in his hand will be a kind of flame that is not supposed to exist in the Three Realms, but a man-made flame rich in a strong earth attribute.
This kind of man-made flame is naturally thousands of times different from the earth fire, but this is only the first step of "Lu Xin"'s creation. As long as he continues to succeed step by step, the flame he creates will have more and more complicated attributes, and will be closer and closer to the earth fire.
Now "Lü Xin" no longer uses his eyes to observe, but uses his spiritual sense instead. He controls the spiritual power in his hand very finely, because he knows that it is not easy to fuse other things with flames at this step. If he does not control it properly and something goes wrong, then all his previous efforts will be in vain. More importantly, he no longer has any more Qianzhang Dust.
When he closed his eyes, a moment passed. A moment later, when "Lü Xin" opened his eyes again, the blood-colored flame on his right hand had turned into a yellowish earth color, which looked a bit similar to the real earth fire.
"Lü Xin" knew that this was the result of the outer fire losing its original properties and integrating into the Qianzhang Dust. Now he has successfully completed the two steps of "refining" and "melting", and what he has to do next is "combining"!
