Chapter 188 Earth Core Flame

This Earth Core True Flame is located hundreds of feet underground in the alchemy room of the Spiritual Medicine Hall. The location of the alchemy room is connected to the ground by a jade passage.

The reason for this design is that the Spiritual Medicine Hall also wants to use this Earth Core True Flame to make pills. In this way, many alchemists will consume less true essence and can make more pills.

Qiongqi had already dug a tunnel in the distance in advance. After Ye Liuyun and his team arrived, they directly drilled into the tunnel, from the ground to the jade passage, and then dug down along the jade passage.

They turned back to block the hole with the soil they dug out.

"You must have done a lot of sneaky things, otherwise how could you be so professional!" Ye Liuyun couldn't help but say aloud when he saw that Qiongqi had arranged everything in an orderly manner.

"It's just for some resources! Do you think this emperor is willing? Back then, this emperor didn't have anything he wanted, and he had to dig a tunnel himself! I can only say that you are too poor!" Qiongqi also complained, but his claws digging holes were not slow at all.

The further they dug, the higher the temperature underground became. Fortunately, both of them had fire properties in their true essence, so it was not difficult for them.

After digging for about half an hour, Qiongqi slowed down.

"It's just ahead. There is a formation to block the flames and prevent them from leaking out. You should first use your true essence to protect your body and use your Golden Crow Holy Fire to protect yourself." Qiongqi reminded Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun hurriedly did the same. Qiongqi did the same, covering his body with a layer of fiery red true essence, and then he began to crack the formation.

After the formation was broken, a burst of flames rushed in his face.

"Go in!"

Qiongqi called out, and Ye Liuyun flashed and rushed in directly. Qiongqi followed him in, and the formation behind him closed again.

If the formation is not closed, the fire will burn to the ground overnight.

Under the formation is a huge space, like a cave, full of flames. On the ground, a deep red magma river flows.

The two of them landed on the ground and looked around carefully.

Ye Liuyun suddenly noticed that a crimson carp jumped out of the magma, then merged into the magma and disappeared.

"Am I seeing this right? Was that a fish just now? Or am I hallucinating?" Ye Liuyun stared at the flowing magma, searching for the fish just now, but he couldn't find it.

"It's not an illusion. But it's not a real fish either. Some spiritual intelligence is bred in the magma, and occasionally it will turn into an animal form, but this kind of spiritual consciousness is weak. But we have to be careful, maybe there are creatures with higher spiritual intelligence." Qiongqi said cautiously.

The two followed the magma and walked upstream. After walking for about half an hour, they saw a low crater, which was constantly gushing out magma.

The temperature here is also higher. If it weren't for those who practiced fire-attributed exercises, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to get here.

"Haha, I found it. The deepest part of that small crater is the true flame of the earth's core." Qiongqi said excitedly.

"Are you sure we won't be burned to ashes if we jump down?" Ye Liuyun frowned as he looked at the rolling magma.

"Although your Golden Crow Holy Fire has not been cultivated to the right level, it is enough to block the magma. You can go down and try first. If it doesn't work, come up and think of a way." Qiongqi was already eager to try.

Ye Liuyun immediately jumped onto Qiongqi's back. If there was any danger, Qiongqi could still lend a hand.

Qiongqi turned into a stream of light and rushed directly into the crater.

With a "bang", the two of them rushed into the magma, causing the magma to splash and scatter.

As soon as he entered, Ye Liuyun was shocked. His true energy was being consumed rapidly. At this rate, he couldn't even last half an hour.

"Absorb the heat of the magma for your own use." Qiongqi reminded Ye Liuyun immediately.

Ye Liuyun immediately operated the Xuanyuan Refining Qi Jue Jue, absorbing the power of the fire in the magma and replenishing it into his true energy.

Not to mention, this method really works. His true energy soon reached a balance between output and input.

Just as the two of them had just adapted to the illusion and were diving with all their strength, something strange happened.

Two demonic fire monsters screamed, looking like hellish demons, and rushed towards them.

"What is this? A demon from hell?" Ye Liuyun quickly communicated with Qiongqi through his spiritual sense.

"This is the spirit monster you need for the next stage of body refining. It was bred by the true flames of the earth's core, and after years of nurturing by the flames, it has developed a trace of spiritual intelligence. However, their spiritual intelligence is not high, and now they only know how to kill. You can easily destroy their souls by attacking them with your spiritual sense."

Qiongqi's diving speed did not stop at all, and he rushed towards the two fire spirit monsters.

Ye Liuyun activated two soul swords and instantly destroyed the souls of the two spirit monsters.

The souls of these two spirit monsters were still in the form of a ball of flame, and had not formed any biological state at all. They were immediately dispersed by the impact of Ye Liuyun's soul sword.

Qiongqi also rushed forward, and with a claw, two bright flames were caught by it.

After losing their spirits, the two spirit monsters transformed into the form of flames, but they did not merge with the magma, and the flames did not go out.

Qiongqi handed one to Ye Liuyun. "Keep this for future body training. I'll keep this for myself! Input a wisp of spiritual consciousness, otherwise the spirit monster will die if it takes too long!"

As he said this, Qiongqi injected a wisp of spiritual consciousness into the flame, and then put the flame into the storage ring. "

Ye Liuyun followed suit, inputting a wisp of spiritual consciousness and putting the flame spirit monster into the storage ring.

The following dive was smooth. However, Ye Liuyun's true essence was being consumed more and more, and he had to use all his strength to operate the Xuanyuan Qi Changing Jue to replenish the consumption.

The color of the magma in front of them was also getting brighter and brighter, gradually changing from deep red to red, and then to gold.

Ye Liuyun's phantom pupils saw a bright white light deep below from a distance.

"That's the Earth's Core True Flame!" Qiongqi explained to Ye Liuyun: "Your Golden Crow Holy Fire is stronger than this Earth's Core True Flame, so the amount you absorb cannot cover the Golden Crow Holy Fire, otherwise it will be swallowed up by the Golden Crow Holy Fire."

"Okay. "Ye Liuyun agreed, jumped off Qiongqi's back, and absorbed the flame on the spot with Qiongqi on each side.

As Ye Liuyun absorbed and refined more of the Earth Core True Flame, Ye Liuyun felt that the surrounding magma seemed not so hot. The consumption of his body-protecting true essence was immediately reduced a lot.

But Ye Liuyun felt that Qiongqi absorbed faster than him.

"As expected of the Fire Emperor, his control over the flame is much better than mine! Now his strength should be greatly improved. I wonder how strong he can be after his strength is fully restored!"

Ye Liuyun felt that Qiongqi absorbed the flame at a speed almost twice as fast as himself, and he could not help but look forward to Qiongqi.

After about a day, Ye Liuyun stopped. The Earth Core True Flame he absorbed was close to two-thirds of the Golden Crow Holy Fire.

He did not dare to absorb more, lest he swallowed the Golden Crow Holy Fire in turn. The amount was just right, just enough to supplement the Golden Crow Holy Fire and strengthen it.
