Chapter 337: Only children make choices!
The palace was very large.
On top of the snow-white pillar was a divine dragon that seemed alive. Walls and floors were made of jade, flickering with a warm light.
Atmosphere was solemn, the pillar was clean, and the decoration was extremely magnificent.
But Bai Jiangye’s attention was completely absent.
A sea of flames floated above the main hall!
Upon closer inspection, this sea of flames was made of countless independent flames.
These flames were all pale blue, flowing slowly like seawater, emitting a terrifying heat.
Deity Transformation’s guardian came back to his senses. He gulped and said, “The flames are blue and as clear as water. Although it’s a flame, it possesses a water attribute aura. Could this be the legendary Pure Lotus Sacred Flame?”
Bai Jiangye nodded. “Judging from this aura, it should be correct.”
Pure Lotus Sacred Flame was rumored to be a powerful Heavenly Flame that could boil and dry even the sea!
However, it had never appeared in the world in thousands of years, and the world had never truly seen it. They could only find a few words in the descriptions of some ancient books.
There were many different opinions about who controlled this Heavenly Flame and whether it really existed.
Never had he imagined that it would be hiding in this dragon palace!
Bai Jiangye looked excited.
Although he already knew that this was the Heavenly Flame Secret realm, he did not expect it to be such a powerful Heavenly Flame!
It was only slightly weaker compared to the Burning Heaven Sacred Flame.
Looking at the sea of flames in front of him, he quickly calmed down. “But why are there so many balls of Heavenly Flames here?”
Deity Transformation’s guardian shook his head. “I’m not too sure. However, the aura of every single flame is the same. It contains explosive energy, and it doesn’t seem like an illusion.”
“Strange.” Bai Jiangye rubbed his chin, “Could this be the test? They want us to find the right one?”
While the two of them were thinking, Li Ran and Feng Wanjiang walked in one after another.
Feng Wanjiang’s injuries were even more severe.
His face was as white as a sheet of gold, and blood dripped down uncontrollably. It was unknown what he had experienced just now.
The moment they entered the palace, they were stunned.
The sea of flames in midair was simply too shocking.
“Is there really a Heavenly Flame here? And there are so many!”
A greedy light flashed in Feng Wanjiang’s eyes. It seemed that he had come to this secret ground for nothing!
“It’s the Pure Lotus Sacred Flame.” Yue Jianli recognised it at a glance and said, “It seems like it wants us to make a choice, but we don’t know what the wrong result is?”
A golden light flashed in Li Ran’s eyes as the sea of flames in his eyes became transparent. The explosive energy appeared before his eyes and was quickly analyzed by the Eye of Disruption.
There was a faint connection between each ball of fire. If he were to act rashly, he would definitely be swallowed by the sea of fire.
The others also realised this. They carefully raised their heads to observe, not daring to make any moves.
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud boom rang out, and all the exits and entrances fell down the stone door!
The entire hall became a secret room!
Feng Wanjiang walked to the side of the door to take a look, exclaiming, “It’s the Devil Roaring Stone! The entire gate is filled with magic crystals!”
Li Ran raised an eyebrow.
Devastating Stone had a natural anti-magic ability. As long as one’s strength didn’t exceed the Heavenly Tribulation realm, all Daoist techniques and divine abilities would fail.
The door to the Li Family’s secret ground was made of the same material.
However, be it the size or thickness of the door, it was several times larger than the Li family’s secret ground. The weight had already reached a terrifying level.
Even a Deity Transformation cultivator wouldn’t be able to push it away.
Everyone was flustered.
At this moment, a soft sound came from the air.
Cha!
In a nearby incense burner, a pillar of incense began to burn. Smoke spiralled upwards.
“Looks like there is a time limit. We must find the true Heavenly Flame within the time it takes an incense stick to burn!”
Yue Jianli frowned slightly. “If it’s just for the test, then there’s a time limit. Why are we locked up here?”
Li Ran said indifferently, “It’s very clear that if we fail, we can forget about leaving alive.”
“Hmm?” Yue Jianli was shocked.
Li Ran said with a strange expression, “Judging from the scene we just entered, we definitely aren’t the first batch of participants, but we don’t see a single corpse. Moreover, the Heavenly Flames are still.”
“This means that not a single one of the participants in the trial has succeeded. They have all been devoured by the Heavenly Flame.”
Yue Jianli’s expression was grave.
No wonder the Pure Lotus Sacred Flame was so mysterious, and it was even to the extent that there were few words and descriptions.
It was because everyone who had seen it had already died!
Back then, in the Burning Heaven Secret realm, even if they failed the trial, they would only lose their qualifications.
However, this so-called Dragon Palace required everyone to put their lives on the line!
The air became quiet for a moment.
Then, they soared into the air and rushed toward the sea of flames. Including Yue Jianli, they all began to search for it.
Time was tight. They had to find the true Heavenly Flame and successfully refine it within fifteen minutes!
On the other hand, Li Ran remained unmoved as he quietly stood where he was. His pale golden eyes observed every single ball of flame.
Time passed by slowly.
Unknowingly, they had already burned two-thirds of the time, leaving only a little more time.
However, everyone was still helpless.
Every single ball of Heavenly Flame was so real, and the aura it emitted was equally hot. It was impossible to tell if it was real or not!
Feng Wanjiang wiped his sweat and gritted his teeth, “There’s no time left. Just pick one!”
Bai Jiangye nodded, “One person, one flame, each depends on their own luck!”
They could not wait any longer. Refining the Heavenly Flame also required time!
Deity Transformation’s guardian stood by Bai Jiangye’s side, ready to protect him at all times.
Yue Jianli turned to look at Li Ran. “Junior sister Li, which one should we choose?”
Golden light in Li Ran’s eyes dissipated. He smiled and said, “Only children make choices…”
Yue Jianli was stunned. “Ah?”
“I want all of them!”
Boom!
Li Ran’s Sword Qi rushed out, and the silver-white light was blinding, instantly enveloping the entire sea of flames!
Bai Jiangye was stunned for a moment before exclaiming, “Are you crazy? This would cause a backlash from the Heavenly Flame!”
This person actually wanted to refine all the flames at the same time!
It was too simple and crude!
Boom! Boom!
The sea of flames instantly became restless as raging flames burst forth and madly resisted the Sword Qi!
The silver Sword Qi was quickly devoured, but the sea of flames was burning more fiercely!
Heavenly Flames could burn everything in the world. Even Sword Qi and spirit energy were no exception!
However, Li Ran’s Sword Qi seemed to be endless, continuously replenishing it. The silver light was like a silver river hanging backward.
Gradually, the speed at which the sea of flames devoured began to slow down. Area was also shrinking, and the silver Sword Qi became even more dazzling!
Deity Transformation guardian couldn’t believe it. “So that’s the case…”
Under everyone’s shocked gazes, the sea of flames was forcibly compressed to the size of a fist, and all the flames merged into a ball.
It condensed into a dark blue flame!
Colour was as deep as the sea, the flames were like waves, and the shape was like a blooming lotus flower. Sound of waves could be heard from within!
“This is the true Pure Lotus Sacred Flame!”
