"Turning the flas into his own strength… that is a realm above Fire Harmony…" Feng Liqiu muttered in a dazed voice.
While the phoenixes remained stunned by Yuan's remarkable achievents, he decided to push the boundaries of his newfound power. Without hesitation, he leaped straight into the eighth level, where the brilliant white flas roared fiercely.
'Sure enough, I don't feel any difference… no… this is even more comfortable than the black flas!' Yuan thought, closing his eyes as the white flas enveloped him.
"This is… outrageous…" Feng Liqiu muttered, her body trembling as she stared at Yuan's figure. The white flas, powerful enough to seriously injure even her—despite having pushed her Fire Harmony to its limits—seed to have no effect on him. Just days ago, he had struggled on the second level, yet now, this re human was enduring the flas of the eighth level with ease. The sight left her speechless and shaken.
"I don't get it." The Primordial Phoenix suddenly muttered out loud.
"Even if he has the ability to absorb my flas, there should be a limit to how much he could absorb without blowing up. His cultivation isn't increasing, and I refuse to believe that his single Chaotic Heart could contain so much Chaotic Essence! Where are all of the Chaotic Essence going?"
The Primordial Phoenix's question was a valid one. Just like a cup, no vessel—no matter how powerful—could hold an infinite amount. If one kept pouring water into a cup, it would eventually overflow. Similarly, there had to be a limit to how much power Yuan could absorb before reaching a breaking point. Yet, this breaking point was nowhere to be seen with Yuan.
Sure enough, Yuan's Chaotic Heart could not contain an infinite amount of Chaotic Essence, and once it was completely filled to the brim, the Chaotic Essence was sent elsewhere.
[Primordial Fire]
[Rank: Celestial]
[Mastery Level: 1]
[Description: The highest level of fire mastery, attainable only by a few bloodlines. Primordial Fire transcends all other flas, bypassing even the strongest fire resistance and immunity. It is the ultimate expression of fire, a fla unrivaled in destructive capability and feared by even phoenixes.]
'So I can turn the flas I absorbed into my own power…' Yuan swallowed nervously at the implications.
'If I can rge my physique with the fire immunity, I should be able to do the sa with other immunities. Perhaps that's how I complete my new physique…'
Soti later, Yuan turned his gaze to the ninth and final level of the Nine Levels of Hell. Unlike the previous eight levels, there were no visible flas in the ninth. However, despite the absence of fire, Yuan could clearly sense sothing powerful and ominous lingering within.
'It looks like I am not completely impervious to all fire yet…' Yuan sighed inwardly. Though he had endured the eighth level without any issues, he could instinctively sense that the ninth level was different—deadly, even for him. 'I guess it's about ti I leave this place.'
In just a few days, he'd completed his Chaotic Heart, gained fire immunity, evolved his physique, and even acquired a Celestial-rank skill.
Feeling satisfied by the results, Yuan left the Nine Levels of Hell.
The mont Yuan erged from the volcano, he instinctively sensed sothing hurtling toward him. Turning around, his eyes widened as he spotted a massive ball of black flas flying directly at him.
Yuan instinctively raised his arm, opening his palm to block the incoming flas with his bare hand. The mont the massive ball of flas made contact with his palm, it was absorbed instantly. The flas, which were strong enough to kill even immortals, vanished into his hand, leaving Yuan unscathed. "What was that about?" Yuan looked at the Primordial Phoenix, who was responsible for the surprise attack.
"I wanted to confirm your abilities."
"What if that had killed ?"
"But it didn't."
"Unbelievable…"
"Why are you complaining? You should be thanking for letting you use the Nine Levels of Hell."
"I would've if you didn't send here because of your pettiness." Yuan shrugged.
"I have no clue what you're talking about." The Primordial Phoenix shook her head.
"Whatever. I'm going to head to the Divine Dragon Sanctuary now that I have completed my Chaotic Heart." "W-wait a minute!" Feng Liqiu suddenly spoke up.
"Hm? Who are you?" Yuan asked.
"I'm Feng Liqiu, the second eldest in the family."
"Oh, hello. Do you need sothing from ?"
"Can you tell how you are absorbing the flas?"
"It's mostly thanks to my unique physique, that's all."
"Were you born with that physique?"
"Yes."
Feng Liqiu suddenly beca silent with a ponderous expression on her face.
"If there's nothing else—"
"Wait, I have one more thing—a request."
"What kind?"
Feng Liqiu narrowed her eyes and spoke, "Give so of your blood and Chaotic Essence."
"What?" Yuan raised an eyebrow, unable to comprehend her request at first.
However, Feng Yao and the Primordial Phoenix reacted with shock, their eyes wide in disbelief. The request clearly struck them, while the Primal Monarch, observing the scene, wore a slight smile, as if amused.
"Hm? Wait a second…" Yuan suddenly had a sense of Deja Vu.
Then, he recalled a certain conversation he had with Lan Yingying.
He swallowed nervously before asking, "That request… you want to conceive with my energy?" She nodded without hesitation.
"What the hell are you thinking?" The Primordial Phoenix suddenly interjected.
"I have been wanting a child for a while now, and I think this is the perfect ti."
"But with a human…? I have never heard of anything like that before! Is that even possible?"
"I guess we'll find out soon enough!" Feng Liqiu smiled.
"Ahem." Yuan cleared his throat and said, "It's definitely possible for beasts to conceive with humans since it's been done before in my world, but I have no intention of doing sothing like that with soone I don't know."
"But I already told you who I am." Feng Liqiu said.
"You know what I an…" Yuan shook his head.
