Chapter 45

Remember in one second 【↘→】, providing you with exciting novel reading. "Clear Spirit Cold Fire? Big Sister, what is this thing?"

Xiaobaiou looked at the overjoyed Mo Honglian with some confusion, wondering what kind of treasure this burning blue flame could be to make her so delighted.

Lin Yingluo and Sima Ao were also puzzled; they, too, did not know about the Clear Spirit Cold Fire.

Seeing everyone's puzzled expressions, Mo Honglian suppressed her joy and patiently explained the origin and value of the burning blue flame to everyone.

As Mo Honglian explained, everyone's eyes grew brighter, and their expressions became more excited. Their gazes on the burning blue flame gradually turned fiery!

"Big Sister! Is this real? Are you saying that if we successfully refine this Clear Spirit Cold Fire and have enough elemental energy to support us, we can effortlessly break through to the next realm?"

Xiaobaiou's voice, filled with surprise, rang out, her small face flushed with excitement.

"You, you're always lazy when I tell you to read more about the natural treasures of the world..."

Mo Honglian gently tapped Xiaobaiou's forehead with a smile, while Xiaobaiou stuck out her little tongue, looking adorably innocent.

Ye Wuxue nodded inwardly. Since Mo Honglian knew the use of the Clear Spirit Cold Fire, he didn't need to explain it himself.

With that thought, Ye Wuxue stepped forward and said, "Sister Mo, since the Clear Spirit Cold Fire has such wonderful effects, how do we refine it into our bodies?"

As if she knew Ye Wuxue would ask this, Mo Honglian said with a smile, "The Clear Spirit Cold Fire, due to its unique nature, is inherently gentle, without the violent and fierce characteristics of ordinary flames. It has no temperature and does not resist the elemental energy within cultivators, allowing it to be directly refined into the body."

"Sister Mo, you mean we can integrate the Clear Spirit Cold Fire with our own elemental energy and directly introduce it into our bodies?"

Ye Wuxue's eyes flashed as he asked.

"Indeed, it's not too difficult, but since the Clear Spirit Cold Fire is still a type of flame, we must be cautious and not take it lightly."

Lin Yingluo nodded slightly, still cautious, and the others echoed her. Refining a flame is not a trivial matter; a slight mistake could lead to an accident.

"Everyone, prepare. I'll try to see if I can retrieve this Clear Spirit Cold Fire."

"Hum"

Mo Honglian's face showed a serious expression as a red glow emanated from her body. As she channeled her elemental energy, a large red handprint about five meters wide appeared and reached out to the burning blue flame.

"Boom"

The moment the red handprint touched the burning blue flame, a loud explosion occurred, followed by a powerful shockwave that dispersed the red handprint. The blue flame, however, seemed completely unaffected!

"Whoosh"

Mo Honglian retreated ten meters, dispelling the shockwave. Her face showed a serious expression, realizing that her attack had no effect. The Clear Spirit Cold Fire was not as easy to obtain as she had thought.

"Indeed, it seems that the Clear Spirit Cold Fire is protected by a seal."

Stepping forward, Ye Wuxue's eyes narrowed. Although the Fragrant Flower Cave did not have a true third level, the Clear Spirit Cold Fire and the stone room were in the same place. The small seven-color seal was actually a seal on the stone room, while the Clear Spirit Cold Fire itself had its own seal. In this sense, the Clear Spirit Cold Fire could be considered the third level seal of the Fragrant Flower Cave.

"Seal?"

Sima Ao's expression changed upon hearing Ye Wuxue's words. The seven-color seal outside the second level of the Fragrant Flower Cave would have prevented them from entering if not for Ye Wuxue's guidance.

Now, the Clear Spirit Cold Fire was also sealed. As Sima Ao spoke, Mo Qingye, Mo Baiou, and Lin Yingluo's gazes involuntarily focused on Ye Wuxue, who had become a source of reliance for the six of them.

"Brother Wuxue, it seems I can't do anything with this Clear Spirit Cold Fire. It's up to you again."

At this moment, Mo Honglian's voice became playful, lacking her usual grace. Her eyes sparkled with a hint of deep-seated anticipation.

Seeing five pairs of eyes staring at him, Ye Wuxue cleared his throat and turned to look at the Clear Spirit Cold Fire. A voice with a slight smile echoed in his mind.

"The Clear Spirit Cold Fire is indeed surrounded by a seal, but not a complete one."

"Not a complete seal? What do you mean?"

Ye Wuxue was puzzled by Kong's words.

"Meaning the original owner of the Fragrant Flower Cave only casually placed an incomplete seal around the Clear Spirit Cold Fire. This seal has no defensive capabilities; it only serves to protect the Clear Spirit Cold Fire. If it were complete, it would be like the small seven-color seal."

Hearing this, Ye Wuxue realized that without Kong's guidance, he might have been injured by the power within the small seven-color seal, while Mo Honglian was only pushed back.

"In that case, the Clear Spirit Cold Fire is like a turtle in a shell, only defending and not attacking, no matter how it is attacked from the outside."

Understanding the situation, Ye Wuxue said with a hint of helplessness.

"That's simple. You have six people; just work together to break the shell."

"Your meaning is..."

Ye Wuxue's eyes brightened, understanding Kong's intention.

"Yes, gather the power of the six of you, and use the method I told you to break the small seven-color seal. This turtle shell should be able to be shattered by you."

Kong stopped speaking, believing Ye Wuxue knew what to do. In fact, if not for Ye Wuxue's unfamiliarity with seals and the uniqueness of each seal, he might have come up with a way to break it himself.

Turning around, Ye Wuxue looked at the other five with a determined gaze.

Seeing Ye Wuxue's determined look, Lin Yingluo immediately understood that he had a plan. She stepped forward and smiled, "Do you need our help?"

Ye Wuxue looked at the five, who were now eager, and nodded with a smile, "Give me your elemental energy."

"Hum" "Hum" "Hum"

In the second level of the Fragrant Flower Cave, five figures were surrounded by different colors of powerful elemental energy. The waves of energy from five mid-stage Purified Essence and Spirit cultivators swept out, and their gazes focused on the tall, black-robed figure in front of them.

"Hum"

A vast, pale golden holy path battle qi flowed through Ye Wuxue's body. He calmed his mind and focused his sharp eyes on the Clear Spirit Cold Fire. With a deep breath, he shouted, "Begin!"

The deep shout instantly reached the ears of the five behind him. They immediately focused, gathering their elemental energy in their right hands and pressing them onto Ye Wuxue's back.

"Boom"

Ye Wuxue immediately felt five powerful streams of elemental energy from the five hands on his back, surging into his body.

"Ha!"

With a deep shout, Ye Wuxue channeled his holy path battle qi to guide the five streams of elemental energy. As he guided them, the five streams of elemental energy rapidly converged with his holy path battle qi, quickly gathering on his right fist.

"Step back!"

Ye Wuxue shouted, and the five behind him immediately withdrew their hands and quickly retreated, but their gazes remained fixed on the black-robed figure.

"Hum"

Feeling the immense power surging from his right fist, Ye Wuxue was not surprised but rather delighted. His eyes sharpened, and he followed the method Kong had taught him, leaping high and punching toward the Clear Spirit Cold Fire.

"Boom"

Using the unique method to break the seal, Ye Wuxue's right fist struck the Clear Spirit Cold Fire, immediately feeling an invisible barrier. He understood it was the turtle shell.

A powerful shockwave instantly emanated from the turtle shell, trying to block his punch.

Feeling the shockwave growing stronger, Ye Wuxue's eyes narrowed, and his expression turned fierce.

"Break!"

"Boom"

The right fist, infused with the power of six people, burst with a dazzling light. The elemental energy surged and, under Ye Wuxue's control, was channeled into the turtle shell.

"Crack"

A clear sound of something breaking echoed in everyone's ears. Ye Wuxue landed, his eyes filled with joy.

"Hum"

The Clear Spirit Cold Fire, now free from its constraints, became more lively and graceful, floating in the air, about a foot in size.

"Alright, quickly refine the Clear Spirit Cold Fire. Our time... is running out."

With Ye Wuxue's words, Mo Honglian, Mo Qingye, Mo Baiou, Lin Yingluo, and Sima Ao all nodded, their eyes burning with excitement as they looked at the Clear Spirit Cold Fire.

...

Outside the Hundred Yuan Realm, on the white jade platform, the hundred city lords of the Hundred Great Cities were all focused on a ten-meter-wide, softly glowing light screen in the sky.

Wei Xiong stood in the air, his sharp eyes also fixed on the large light screen. On the ten-meter-wide screen, figures of the young geniuses who had entered the Hundred Yuan Realm were constantly flashing.

At the same time, white light occasionally appeared and disappeared on the white jade platform. As the white light flickered, figures with various expressions of defeat, unwillingness, or resentment appeared!

They were the ones who had been eliminated from the Hundred Yuan Realm. These people also saw the ten-meter-wide screen, their eyes turning bloodshot as they stared at it.

As more and more eliminated figures appeared, sighs began to rise among the hundred city lords.

In the front row of the hundred city lords, Qi Shilong felt a strange sensation. His gaze was fixed on a corner of the ten-meter-wide screen, where six figures, surrounded by blue flames, were seated. The leader, dressed in black, with a handsome face, was Ye Wuxue!

"Ye Wuxue, I indeed did not misjudge you..."

Since Ye Wuxue, Lin Yingluo, and Sima Ao entered the Hundred Yuan Realm, their every action had been observed by Qi Shilong through the large light screen. From killing the dark red blood lion to breaking the seal of the Clear Spirit Cold Fire, Qi Shilong had watched them grow rapidly. He was already extremely satisfied with the three he had personally selected, especially Ye Wuxue.

"Yuan Yang Order, Tian Bai Order... strive, you three. The true great battle and opportunities have just begun..."

Wei Xiong, standing with his hands behind his back, remained expressionless. Suddenly, his expression changed, and his gaze shifted to the horizon: "It seems the people from that place are almost here..."

He then returned his gaze to the screen, where several exciting scenes were unfolding.
