199: Spirit Fire Fusion

Immediately, Lu Xingchen raised his immortal slaying sword, and the Demon Breaking Slash was released again.

At the same time, Jade Shatter was unleashed, and half of his Battle Qi instantly vanished, replaced by a five-fold increase in attack power.

The milky white fire lotus and the Battle Qi Sword Blade collided once more.

This time, the Battle Qi Sword Blade directly split the fire lotus in two, then fiercely slashed towards the Glazed Pure Fire, cleaving it directly in half.

“Congratulations, Host: Lu Xingchen, for killing a Three-Star Martial Ancestor! You have gained three million experience points and three million exchange points!”

“Congratulations, Host: Lu Xingchen, for advancing your Realm to Five-Star Martial Emperor! You have gained 45 talent points!”

Lu Xingchen was overjoyed and immediately checked his attribute panel.

“Host: Lu Xingchen”

“Realm: Five-Star Martial Emperor”

“Experience Points: 30000 / 6000000”

“exchange points: 7726220”

“Talents: Eagle Eye (50), Strong Strike (50), Berserk (50), Blade Edge (50), Jade Shatter (50), Devour (50), Army Breaker (50), Blade Breaker (50)”

“Professions: Sixth-Grade Alchemist (908000 / 10000000), Fifth-Grade Spirit Array Master (106000 / 1000000)”

“Mount: Nether Dragon (Sixth-Tier)”

“Excellent, another big step forward!”

The Glazed Pure Fire's sentience was erased, and the Origin fire seed that Lu Xingchen had shattered gathered together, forming a cluster of milky white flames.

Lu Xingchen walked towards the flames.

Seeing the battle conclude, Yun Li also unfurled her Dou Qi Wings and flew to Lu Xingchen's side.

“Holy crap, Lu Xingchen, you're truly fierce! You even took down a Three-Star Martial Ancestor!”

Lu Xingchen chuckled, “It was just luck. I owe a lot to Wang Le for using that Seventh-Grade Spirit Formation to weaken the Glazed Pure Fire's strength; otherwise, there's no way I could have been its opponent.”

Yun Li patted Lu Xingchen's shoulder: “So? What are you thinking now? Are you going to refine this Glazed Pure Fire immediately?”

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly.

“The Glazed Pure Fire contains extremely powerful energy and cannot be stored in a Storage Ring. If taken outside, it might attract fatal danger. The best method is to refine it here in the Greedy Wolf Secret Realm.”

Yun Li said softly, “That's true. Then you should refine the Glazed Pure Fire immediately! I'll stand by and act as your Protector.”

“Alright, thank you, Miss Yun Li!”

With that, Lu Xingchen sat cross-legged on the ground and absorbed the Glazed Pure Fire into his body.

After being strengthened by the poji pill, Lu Xingchen's physical strength far exceeded that of an ordinary Five-Star Martial Emperor, and combined with his Initial Spirit Realm Soul Power, he easily suppressed the Glazed Pure Fire.

After a day, Lu Xingchen had completely refined the Glazed Pure Fire.

However, his ambition did not stop there.

He wanted to activate the Burning Art to fuse the Purple Crystal Flame and the Glazed Pure Fire into an even more potent Spirit Fire.

If he succeeded, his combat power would undoubtedly increase significantly.

No sooner said than done!

Lu Xingchen immediately activated the Burning Art, intertwining the two Spirit Fires in his Dantian.

This was an extremely dangerous process; if the Fusion failed, the two Spirit Fires would explode in his Dantian, and his life would truly be unpredictable.

But as the saying goes, no pain, no gain.

To increase his strength, taking some risks was worth it.

Moreover, Lu Xingchen was very confident in his own strength.

However, the Fusion process was not smooth.

The two Spirit Fires leaped around in Lu Xingchen's Dantian, yet they consistently refused to accept each other.

The main reason was that the Glazed Pure Fire was of too high a grade; the Purple Crystal Flame was like a younger brother in front of it.

The Glazed Pure Fire was unwilling to merge with a low-grade Spirit Fire.

But now that the Fusion had begun, if he stopped abruptly, Lu Xingchen would suffer severe backlash.

He could only grit his teeth and endure, mediating between the two Spirit Fires with his powerful Soul Power.

Half an hour later, Lu Xingchen spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his face turning incredibly pale.

Yun Li, who was standing guard nearby, was startled and quickly asked, “Lu Xingchen, are you alright?”

Lu Xingchen said in a deep voice, “The power of this Glazed Pure Fire is too strong; I can't fully control it! Yun Li, hurry and leave, I'm about to explode!”

But instead of fleeing, Yun Li moved forward and embraced Lu Xingchen.

Lu Xingchen was shocked and said in a deep voice, “Miss Yun Li, what do you mean by this? Are you tired of living?”

Yun Li said softly, “I possess the Thunder Roar Physique, and my physical constitution far surpasses others; I can help you share the power of the Glazed Pure Fire. Lu Xingchen, I'm giving you full control of my body; let's fight this battle together!”

Hearing this, Lu Xingchen was startled.

He hadn't expected Yun Li to be willing to go to such lengths for him.

If the Fusion failed, her body would suffer backlash along with his, and losing all her cultivation was not impossible!

“Why?” Lu Xingchen asked in a deep voice.

“I think I've probably fallen for you. Lin Yuan is dead, Lu Xingchen, you're my only reliance. This time, I want to live and die with you.”

Lu Xingchen's nose tingled, and he chuckled, “What foolishness are you talking about? I promise, both of us will be safe and sound!”

Lu Xingchen took full control of Yun Li's body, while Yun Li cooperated unconditionally.

Part of the Glazed Pure Fire's power surged into Yun Li's body, and the lightning power within her body began to contend with the Glazed Pure Fire.

Originally, the Glazed Pure Fire and the Purple Crystal Flame had too great a difference in grade, making Fusion difficult, but Yun Li's Thunder Roar Physique bridged this gap.

The lightning power and the Purple Crystal Flame, sharing a common enemy, cooperated with each other, actually managing to contend with the Glazed Pure Fire.

The biggest problem with the Fusion was thus solved.

With Yun Li's help, the two Spirit Fires began to fuse.

Another day passed, and Lu Xingchen finally completed the Fusion of the two Spirit Fires, and the Burning Art's grade also rose to earth rank high grade.

The fused flame was far stronger than the Glazed Pure Fire before.

Lu Xingchen released Yun Li, and both of them stood up from the ground simultaneously.

Lu Xingchen chuckled, “Miss Yun Li, thank you for saving my life! If you hadn't helped, I might have self-destructed and died.”

Yun Li smiled lightly, “It's what I should do; after all, you are my beloved.”

Lu Xingchen smiled and said, “Miss Yun Li, after these past few days together, I've found that I've deeply fallen in love with you and can't live without you. I want to become Dao Companion with you; I wonder if you are willing?”

Hearing this, Yun Li's pretty face turned crimson, and she stared blankly at Lu Xingchen.

After a long while, she said softly, “I am willing.”

Lu Xingchen, however, rubbed his nose and said with a wry smile, “But I already have a fiancée; her name is Lin Wanqing, and we've known each other for many years. I've fallen in love with you, but I can't let her go either.”

Hearing this, Yun Li frowned and said in a deep voice, “Lu Xingchen, you're quite greedy, aren't you? You actually want to marry two wives!”
