47: Chapter 45 Electrox Awakens

A brilliant and clear ice-blue flame suddenly burst open, and an ultimate, bone-chilling cold that could freeze all things instantly swept through the entire ice cave!

Jiang Nannan and Zhang Lexuan's expressions turned stern. Subconsciously, they took several steps back and rapidly circulated their Soul Power to resist this piercing chill.

Looking at the monstrously imposing Mysterious Ice Fire before him, Lin Yan did not act rashly. Instead, he slowly walked over to the ice lotus that had nurtured this Strange Flame.

Since the ice lotus could naturally suppress the violent power of the Mysterious Ice Fire, if he could analyze its principles, it would surely provide a certain amount of assistance for his subsequent refining of the Strange Flame!

In an instant, the Prajna Heart Lamp deep within Lin Yan's Sea of Consciousness lit up once again with a brilliant divine light of wisdom. His perception, Comprehension Ability, and wisdom began to soar wildly.

His Mental Energy spread out completely, enveloping the entire ice lotus. The next moment, the structure of the ice lotus, the circulation of energy, and the subtle internal changes... were all displayed before Lin Yan's eyes without any reservation!

As time slowly passed, the light of the Prajna Heart Lamp finally converged, returning once again to silence.

At the same time, the Emperor Flame flowed across Lin Yan's palm, quietly condensing and reconstructing a lifelike nine-colored fire lotus!

Aside from the difference in size and color compared to the ice lotus, the overall form and textural structure of this Emperor Flame fire lotus were identical down to the last detail!

Although he had not yet completely analyzed and understood the Dao and laws contained within the ice lotus, simply copying the pattern and replicating its internal and external structures was more than enough for Lin Yan at this moment!

And achieving this step was enough to help him refine the Extreme Cold Mysterious Ice Fire!

Dispersing the fire lotus in his palm, the next second, as Lin Yan injected Soul Power through his fingertips at a certain frequency, the ice lotus, which had shrunk to the size of two palms, rapidly stretched and expanded, instantly restoring its original massive form.

After finishing all this, Lin Yan cast his gaze back towards the Extreme Cold Mysterious Ice Fire suspended in mid-air.

Taking a deep breath, he slowly reached his hand into the bone-chilling Mysterious Ice Fire on the surface.

This time, lacking the suppression of the ice lotus, the Emperor Flame covering Lin Yan's palm instantly collided violently with the extreme ice flames on the outer layer of the Mysterious Ice Fire the moment they touched!

"Hiss—hiss—"

As Lin Yan's arm penetrated deeper into the core of the Mysterious Ice Fire, the extreme cold faded, and the temperature instantly skyrocketed again.

The scorching temperature at the heart of the Mysterious Ice Fire was even a large margin higher than the current Emperor Flame!

Gritting his teeth and enduring the long-absent burning pain, Lin Yan finally grabbed the fire seed of the Extreme Cold Mysterious Ice Fire at the deepest part of the flames!

The next moment, as if sensing Lin Yan's action, the entire cluster of ice-blue flames began to churn and churn violently.

The Heaven and Earth Origin Qi in the surrounding space rioted like a stampede, crazily surging toward the Mysterious Ice Fire.

As the Mysterious Ice Fire went completely berserk and the extreme ice flames on the outer layer exploded, the already extremely low temperature within the ice cave plummeted off a cliff once again.

In stark contrast, the temperature at the core of the Mysterious Ice Fire began to build up and climb!

Seeing this scene, the two women who had been forced into the corner of the ice cave immediately had their faces filled with thick anxiety and worry.

"Come out!"

Clenching his palm tightly around that tangible strand of fire seed Origin, Lin Yan let out a deep shout, enduring the tearing, searing pain in his palm, and slowly pulled his arm out from the ice-blue flames.

The instant his arm was completely withdrawn, a wisp of ice-slurry-like liquid fire seed could be seen floating in the palm of Lin Yan's hand!

The fire seed was entirely ice-blue and clear, with only a slender, writhing crimson thread lingering at its core!

Feeling the bizarre characteristics of the ice slurry in his hand—sometimes extremely cold and sometimes extremely hot—Lin Yan turned his head to look at the two women in the distance, nodding gently to signal them to be at ease.

Afterward, without any further delay, he leaped forward and landed right in the center of the massive ice lotus platform, sitting cross-legged.

Seeing this, the two women hurriedly stepped forward. Looking at the worry overflowing on their faces, Lin Yan spoke up first, his tone resolute: "Rest assured, I will definitely be fine."

As his voice fell, with Lin Yan's Soul Power flooding into the ice lotus, the thirty-six lotus petals that had originally unfolded layer by layer instantly began to slowly gather and close!

Thanks to the natural restraining power of the ice lotus, the originally restless and violent fire seed finally gradually calmed down.

Gazing at the ice slurry fire seed in his palm for a moment, Lin Yan no longer hesitated. He urged the Emperor Flame to lock it firmly, then grabbed it and swallowed it directly into his body!

"Ugh ah—"

The moment the fire seed entered his body, the ultimate ice and fire power erupted abruptly, and a suppressed, muffled grunt escaped Lin Yan's mouth. At this moment, his whole body trembled violently as if struck by lightning, and his originally rosy face instantly turned as pale as paper!

Enduring the excruciating pain of ice and fire alternating inside his body and tearing his Meridians, the Emperor Flame surged around Lin Yan, replicating the texture structure of the ice lotus and condensing into a gorgeous nine-colored fire lotus that once again enveloped him!

With the outer ice lotus and the inner fire lotus suppressing the fire seed of the Extreme Cold Mysterious Ice Fire with all their might, Lin Yan slowly closed his eyes, and his mind gradually sank deep into his body.

Inspecting himself inwardly, a misty sensory interface suddenly appeared in Lin Yan's mind.

At this moment, that Mysterious Ice Fire fire seed that had entered his body was being tightly locked layer by layer by the Emperor Flame, disassembled into countless wisps of fine blue ice flames!

However, a Strange Flame truly lived up to its name. Even when subjected to dual suppression and disassembled and differentiated by the Emperor Flame, it remained unruly, wild, and explosive!

With the Emperor Flame and the fire seed taking his body as a battlefield, the ultimate severe cold and ultimate scorching heat alternated in his Meridians, repeatedly colliding as if countless sharp blades were crazily stirring and tearing inside his body, while terrifying energy continuously washed over and split apart his flesh and bones!

The torture of the ice and fire dual heavens swept through his entire body. Lin Yan's muscles twitched violently, and the veins on his forehead bulged. Cold sweat instantly soaked his clothes, only to be quickly dried by the alternating cold and heat, condensing a layer of fine white frost on the surface of his skin.

Enduring the bone-eroding, heart-devouring agony, Lin Yan urged his Soul Power to the limit. The first spirit ring around his body suddenly lit up, its radiance blooming to the extreme!

Majestic refining power poured endlessly from the Emperor Flame, little by little beginning to erode and devour the Origin fire seed of the Extreme Cold Mysterious Ice Fire!

...

As time slowly passed and his consciousness gradually blurred amidst the excruciating pain, Lin Yan clenched his teeth tightly. Relying on his astonishing willpower to guard his mind, he continuously guided the Emperor Flame to nibble away at the fire seed bit by bit.

However, the overbearing nature of the Extreme Cold Mysterious Ice Fire far exceeded his expectations. Its nascent sentience was crazily resisting the Emperor Flame's devouring, causing his refining progress to be abnormally slow for a time!

"Not good!"

Lin Yan's heart sank. If this tug-of-war continued at this momentum, the one who would exhaust his strength and collapse first would definitely be himself!

Just as Lin Yan's thoughts were spinning rapidly as he pondered a way to break the deadlock, an old and familiar voice suddenly came from deep within his Sea of Consciousness.

"Xiaoyan, steady your mind!"

Electrolux, who had been dormant for a long time, had awakened!

There was no time to think about why Electrolux had awakened earlier compared to the original work.

Lin Yan's spirits lifted. Strongly suppressing the churning agony within his body, he split off a wisp of consciousness and quickly sank it into the Sea of Consciousness!
