Seeing that it was a Female Cultivator, Wang Mu's Sword Control Technique became three points more fierce.
"Wait!"
At this moment, the Ghost Shadow suddenly froze and spoke slowly, "I surrender."
? Wang Mu wondered. She's giving up already? This Female Cultivator is kind of weak.
Wang Mu felt he hadn't even warmed up yet. His Spiritual Power had only depleted by ten or twenty percent, with plenty of fight left in him!
The Qiankun Sword truly is a secret technique. It doesn't even require Spiritual Power; just blast a round before the fight even starts, and neither humans nor ghosts can withstand it. Although it's a bit costly in terms of Spirit Stones, I'm not too heartbroken since I mined and refined the materials myself, he thought.
"You must be here for the True Yang Star Flame, right?" The Ghost Shadow pointed at the pitch-black meteorite below. "If you want it, I won't compete with you for it. You can have it."
Oh? Wang Mu glanced at it.
The True Yang Star Flame. It indeed sounds like a Divine Fire.
Wang Mu looked at the Jinmao Rat.
The Jinmao Rat shook its head, indicating it didn't know.
This Female Cultivator is conceding so readily; there might be some issues, Wang Mu thought.
"Continuing this fight will sooner or later attract the Disciples from the Mountain Mist Sect outside." The Ghost Shadow seemed to notice Wang Mu's doubts and spoke methodically, "I am just cultivating here and am not particularly interested in the Divine Flame inside this Divine Stone. If you want to take it, you can."
Divine Flames like these are Supreme Treasures even for non-Alchemists; how could she not want it? Wang Mu didn't believe her. Moreover, this Female Cultivator had a close relationship with the people of the Mountain Mist Sect, but she was not a Disciple of their Sect.
Seeing Wang Mu's hesitation, the Female Cultivator suddenly slapped the Divine Stone below.
In an instant, a fissure cracked open from the center of the Divine Stone. Scorching flames shot out, accompanied by strands of mysterious fire flickering like twinkling stars. This cavern instantly turned into a furnace.
With a loud bang, the crack on the Divine Stone rapidly spread. The cavern even began to tremble slightly, as if an Exotic Treasure was being born.
"The True Yang Star Flame has already appeared." The Ghost Shadow quickly retreated after the slap, emitting a hoarse and eerie laugh. "Boy, if you want to take it, hurry up. Otherwise, with the birth of this Exotic Treasure, this cavern will collapse and melt at an extremely fast rate, and those Mountain Mist Sect Disciples will surely notice. If they find out you've obtained this Treasure on their turf, they won't let you leave."
Having said that, the Ghost Shadow, with an extraordinary movement technique, transformed into a shadow and disappeared on the spot.
"Brother, that woman probably never expected to get this Divine Fire!" the Jinmao Rat suddenly shouted. "I understand now! This Divine Flame is incredibly special, and absorbing it is no easy feat. Without a specific Skill, one can only resist it with their bodily strength. With your level of Cultivation, you might be reduced to ashes before you even absorb the flame!"
"Be careful! Lord Rat can't withstand it any longer; I have to leave here quickly." Its fur was already sparking with embers.
No one in the Sect has such Divine Flames, and I've never heard that absorbing these Heaven and Earth Divine Flames requires any special Skill, Wang Mu frowned slightly. Isn't the Fire Control Technique enough? I don't quite understand, but seeing the Divine Flame being born, I certainly can't leave. This thing, even if not used for Alchemy, is a great weapon for killing enemies and Cultivation alike.
He controlled his Flying Sword and flew to the mid-air above the Divine Stone. The Chiyun Flying Sword buzzed, clearly unable to withstand such flames. Just a strand of sparks had already caused the performance of the Chiyun Flying Sword to plummet, even nearly melting it. Wang Mu quickly retracted the remaining Chiyun Flying Swords.
"Fire Control Technique."
Wang Mu had no other thoughts and directly forced himself to absorb it. Muttering the Mantra softly, Spiritual Power gathered in his palm, and he lightly pressed it into the increasingly widening crack of the Divine Stone.
In an instant, his palm seemed to possess a tremendous suction force. The Divine Stone burst apart into two halves.
Who would've thought? This Divine Stone seems to be a type of Divine Ore and Exotic Treasure, and it feels extremely cool to the touch. To contain such Divine Flames for so long, it can't possibly be some Mortal Iron. Later, if I succeed in absorbing the flames, I'll collect it; it might be useful for repairing the Green Frost Sword in the future, Wang Mu mused.
However, at this moment, Wang Mu only had this fleeting thought before he was overwhelmed by the Divine Flames that surged into his palm.
Breaking out of the Divine Stone, the flames were purple-red, twinkling like stars. Each flicker raised the temperature continuously, as if endlessly pouring into Wang Mu's hand. His Fire Control Technique, cultivated to the Fulfilled stage, seemed almost ineffective at this moment.
Wang Mu felt the flames pouring into his body endlessly, as if about to burn him entirely to ash. At the critical moment, the Spiritual Acupoints within his body quickly revolved, driving the Bones, Blood Marrow, and internal organs throughout his body to fiercely resist the Divine Flame.
Almost instantaneously, the flames spread to his entire body; his clothes turned to ash in just a moment of contact.
This flame is so terrifying… Wang Mu was shocked internally. He didn't feel much pain, only a frantic loss of Spiritual Power from his body. A slight burning sensation was felt in various parts of his body, and it was intensifying continuously.
The Divine Flame seemed to have some level of sentience, as Wang Mu felt it traveling and surging within his body, its high temperature forming a peculiar standoff with his physical form. Gradually, the burning sensation grew more and more intense.
Wang Mu held his breath and concentrated, still persistently applying the Fire Control Technique. But the flames were like unbridled wild horses, completely out of control.
The Fire Control Technique is only a low-level Spell... Even if it's at the Fulfilled stage, it's probably extremely difficult to control such a Divine Fire. My body can hold on for a while... If it were other Cultivators, they would probably turn to ash the moment they made contact. How should this be absorbed?
