Chapter 160 - Reaching The Top
Jian had eaten herbs and spirit fruits which are fire type, and he is trying to break through the Core Formation Realm in Fiery Sun Scripture. The system had informed him that it would not affect his primary cultivation.
But it would allow him to have more control over Fire Qi. As he had eaten all herbs and fruits, he found himself in a similar condition as when he absorbed the Yang Qi from the sunrise.
He started to run the Fiery Sun Scripture and started to devour the heat generated by the herbs and fruits. The fire Qi in the air also began to rush towards him.
The sun in his middle dantian, who was going restless, absorbs all Fire Qi Jian is sending. While Jianwass is cultivating, he feels something loose inside the middle dantian. Be then recalled the scenery he saw when he searched for the tallest volcano.
As he recalled it, the Fiery Sun Scripture started to run itself, and the sun in his middle dantian started to move. It was getting bigger, and as it was getting bigger, its hunger was also getting more significant.
It had already devoured all herbs and fruits fire Qi and whirlpools had formed near Jian\'s chest, which is devouring Fire Qi at incredible speed. Jian didn\'t hesitate and took out the remaining Fire-type herbs and fruits and ate them.
The absorption speed was increased, the whirlpool near his chest has started to calm down. He had eaten all herbs and fruits, so the sun was continuously devouring.
After some time, it stopped getting big but continued to devour. Slowly, the whirlpool around his chest started to disappear, and the qi in the air also started to get calm.
The sun in his middle dantian has stopped absorbing the Qi, but the Fiery Sun Scripture is still running. After a few minutes, cracks started to form in the sun.
Subconsciously Jian didn\'t care about it and continued to run the Fiery Sun Scripture, and after some time, the sun collapsed, and as the sun collapsed, Jian was caught on fire.
Since his robe was protected, it didn\'t burn, but everything else started to burn. His hairs were on fire. The ground near him, which was already burned,t, had begun to catch fire.
Slowly the fire started to calm down. Because it was getting absorbed in the middle dantian. After a few minutes, all fire had been absorbed. Jian had become bald.
But suddenly, cracks started to appear on his body, and the centre point on the shots was his chest, where the middle dantian is located. A red light was shone, and the trials crumbled, and Jian appeared from them.
He opened his eyes, and if one looked closely, he would find a flame burning in his eyes. Slowly hairs started to grow, and in a few minutes, Jian was back to normal, except the impurities he had thrown out were burnt to ashes.
Jian changed the place and sat in meditation. He checked the middle dantian and found that the sun, which had crumbled, had become new, and he felt that the sun was a solid entity.
He continued to check it for a few minutes, and after that, he stood up and searched for a beast to match his strength. Because he felt that his power had increased, he could now see the fire Qi present in the air through the naked eye.
Meaning his affinity towards the fire element had reached Mortal Grade, and it was only one step away from getting earth Grade. He was able to feel the fire element present in the surrounding.
It didn\'t take him time to find a beast because the commotion he caused had led them towards him. At directly attacked, but he used a simple attack of the fire element.
As the attack landed on the beast, it was burnt in that area. Jian was happy to see the improvement. He killed the beast and harvested it, and then rushed back to Song Yu.
While move he told the system to explain what had happened. The plan said to him that a Fiery Sun core is now formed, and you have received baptism from it, so your affinity towards the Fire element has increased.
Jian also asked the system about his strength because it told him it would not affect his cultivation, but he felt that his strength had increased. The plan said the due to an increase in affinity, your attack power has increased.
Jian finally understood and relaxed because he had completed the first part of the Fiery Sun Scripture. He then thought that if Frost Moon Scripture were to reach Core Formation Realm, he could go head to head with Nascent Soul Realm expert.
Song Yu was hiding felt someone approach her. It had been two hours since Jian had gone to breakthrough, so she immediately prepared for a fight, but Jian shouted and informed her that he was.
Song Yu then asked if he had practised the technique to perfection because he had told her that he had a method that could allow them to move closer to the Volcano.
Jian nodded, and then he waved his hand. With a wave of his hand, Jian had dispersed the fire Qi near her and created a barrier that didn\'t allow the fire qi near her. As he had built a wall, Song Yu felt the temperature suddenly decreasing, and then it had become calm.
She was shocked; although she believed him, she didn\'t expect him to have a technique that would allow defending from fire Qi.
Then they didn\'t waste much time and started to move in the direction of the volcano. This time they have decided that they will continuously walk and rest when they reach the volcano.
They continued to walk for seven hours, and they finally reached the volcano. From near, it was at least five times taller than the volcano Jian had climbed to search.
Both were shocked to see the volcano. Because in each direction, a stream of lava was flowing. Jian and Song Yu were able to guess that this was the starting point of each lave river.
They also could hear many different roars of different beasts, so they knew that they had come to the right place. Jian then sat down and recovered to top condition.
On the other hand, Song Yu searched for a place to hide because the heat was unbearable, but she could handle it because of Jian\'s barrier, but they knew that as long as they climbed the volcano, the heat would increase.
So they had decided that only Jian would go to the top of the volcano and bring back the fire element core. And Song Yu will hide at the bottom of the volcano,o and Jian\'s barrier will protect her.
After breaketh the ough, Jian felt very comfortable around the massive amount of fire Qi, so it would be easy for him to climb, and he would be alone so he could handle beasts easily.
Because they have encountered few beasts, but most of them were near herbs of spiritual fruit. So he knew that most beasts would be on the volcano, and he would also find some high-grade herbs and fruits on the volcano.
He had stopped and restocked all herbs and spirit fruits he had used to break through because he didn\'t have any samples remaining to plant in the herb garden.
Jian focused on recovering, and Song Yu had already found a suitable spot to hide. So she waited for him to create a barrier. After twenty minutes, Jian was ready.
The first thing he did was create a barrier around Song Yu\'s hiding spot so that the fire qi could become bearable. After that, he told Song Yu to wait for him to bring the fire element core.
She didn\'t say anything and only nodded. Seeing her nod, he smiled and immediately rushed towards the top of the volcano.
Jian was able to guess that minimum, he will need two hours to rush towards the top without counting the beasts, but if beasts are involved, then it is a different matter.
As he started climbing the volcano, he had encountered a beast. It was a good thing that he has hid Song Yu at a certain distance from the volcano.
He didn\'t waste time and killed the beast and harvested it. This continued till he reached the top. In between, he would stop to harvest the herbs. He found many two-star herbs, and he even found Fiery Demon Lotus.
He killed and harvested his way to the top of the volcano, and in two and half hours, he was standing at the mouth of the volcano. The massive Fire Qi came out of it, so Jian knew that the core was inside the volcano.
He activated Star Gaze and found an area that was not submerged in lava.. He then calmed himself, and a few minutes he jumped inside the volcano.
