Chapter 395: Fiery Path

"Retreat before you get caught in the fire! Quickly!"

The remaining disciples from the Star Seeking Sect were trying to escape the fires that raged like a beast. They didn't run for the gates simply jumping over the walls of their once beloved sect, abandoning their hopes and dreams to one day climb the top.

Once they reached the other side of the wall, they found themselves without freedom but at the awaiting maw of the Lopus Family experts sent to anticipate the escaping defeated.

"The Grandmaster is indeed someone unfathomable," Irta said as he split the body of a disciple in two. He then turned to look at the burning mountain and remembered how Wang Ling controlled the element of fire.

[So, the Grandmaster is at Worldly Manifestation Realm. I knew he was strong but to think it is to this degree, I can't even fathom his existence. Alchemist Jiru did also said that the Grandmaster is a Master of Alchemy, he's not someone to mess with after all.]

Only Rank 4 Cultivation and beyond can control an element, Wang Ling had shown his ability to manipulate the wind and fire, it would be foolish for Irta to think Wang Ling's but a mere Rank 2 Qi Cloaking Realm cultivator.

"Hey, don't kill that guy, he's from on the list of not to kill!" Irta snapped out of his own thoughts as he saw someone was just about to kill someone from a family they're going to negotiate with.

The death toll from known families would already be high after this event, it would be unwise to anger more of them. Irta and the Lopus Family as a whole also knew of this fact thus they are sparing those who lived.

But that doesn't mean they'll be able to enjoy a pleasant end either. They have now become a tool for the Lopus Family a true testament for the Lopus Family's capabilities, when these young masters and young misses are returned, they'll become the living chains who will be bound to the fact that Lopus Family just spared them a descendant.

While the massacre and culling continued, the blaze continued to burn ever so brightly. Wang Ling sat in the middle of this hell, the screams and shout of the Elders had long vanished much like their lives.

Wang Ling wished to devour the souls and hasted his cultivation but he no longer has control over the bloodline of the True Devils. He's crippled in that part of his cultivation. 

However, Wang Ling didn't really care. His mind was preoccupied with something else that caused him to be fascinated.

[The Overhaul Phoenix Rebirth is not easily controlled, but I think I finally get how it is activated. The presence of fire is necessary, I have located the source of activation.]

Wang Ling was too busy searching for the core of the constitution he now possesses. If he could just locate it then he'll be able to finally start using it for cultivation.

At the moment the entire Star Seeking Sect was devoured by the flames the Lopus Family started, the atmosphere was filled with the attribute of fire. 

Disregarding this at the moment, after hours of searching for the core of the Constitution in the midst of a hellish place, Wang Ling finally found a raging valley inside this body. 

[So that's how it is? It is directly linked to my existence, huh. So the reason why I cannot find it for the past few months, is because it cannot be found in the ethereal path of meridians. It is also not found in the veins, or even at the heart, the soul is left untouched.]

When Wang Ling arrived in this world, that was the first time the constitution appeared and helped him stand again. The Overhaul Phoenix Rebirth boosts strength and vitality thus giving Wang Ling immense regenerative capabilities, but for a long time, its existence was a mystery to Wang Ling.

Where it came from, how to activate it, and how to strengthen it. All of it was unknown to Wang Ling, but now, not anymore.

Its existence could be found in between the ethereal space of the meridians and the physical veins and arteries. It houses the invisible qi of an Undying Qi, not necessarily a Phoenix, but similar.

It has its own path of circulation and because of this fact, it is not connected to anything other than the very vessel. It has no power only a massive amount of vitality, and the only way to activate it was the exposure to fire.

When Wang Ling got reincarnated, his surrounding was in blazes, thus explains how it first activated. For a long time, Wang Ling sat there thinking how to make this mysterious constitution stronger, then thinking back with his first exposure to it, and now, he found a subtle yet glaring difference in the situation.

[Not only was today's fire stronger than before, but the effects were also stronger does that mean the stronger the fire the stronger it will become? Well, even if it's not true, the fact that it reacts to fire means that if I cultivate a fire attuned cultivation method means that I'll be able to use the effects of this constitution to hasten my improvement I need to revise a new cultivation to fit this body and bloodline.] Wang Ling found another purpose.

Wang Ling has no strong flames at the moment, but with the worldly flames, it's a start.

[But I need to cultivate a strong flame so that it can help purify the body faster. If I can also cultivate a kind of flame and then manifest it through my qi and ignite it using the Holy Qi, I'll be able to fool others into believing I'm at Worldly Manifestation Realm.]

Wang Ling then had a thought and just sighed, [If only I have Suzhen (Heavenly Flames Incarnation) and Fer (Hellish Flames Incarnation) with me then I can use them for this ruse.] he has yet to retrieve the Heavenly Flames and the Hell Flames.

The Heavenly White Flames that can purify even the dirtiest of impurities and the Hell Black Flames that incinerates the entire Universe of any being. The two flames was supposed to be tied to his very existence, but upon his death, it actually left him.

[The two flames were of my own creation; they are derived from the laws of the two realms but they are still from the essence of my existence. Upon my revival, I should be able to retrieve them and use it to strengthen my arsenal, but it is currently missing.]

Wang Ling cannot feel the presence of the flames no matter how much he dives into his soul. It was as though it had disappeared from existence itself.

When Wang Ling asked about Angel about the Heavenly Flames, it said it knew nothing. When it awoke in this world it noticed of the sort thus Wang Ling was left without any concrete lead.

But the question still remained, what if the two Flames that hunger for Holy Qi and Hellish Qi still burns to this day? Just what kind of monstrosity would be born from them?
