Miracle Throne

Chapter 507: Turning misfortune into a blessing

Chu Tian could vaguely remember than when the Netherworld Ghost Flame swallowed the Ice Spirit Flame, the entire ice spirit vein was lit up with the pool as the center. The large amounts of energy surged forward, instantly covering the world and enveloping Chu Tian.

“Damn, father’s luck isn’t bad, I actually didn’t die.”

Chu Tian woke up to find that he was intact and was currently lying in a cave in the Heavenly Yin Mountains recovering. He thought that it would be a small matter, but he never thought that it would reach the point that he would have to escape from death. Chu Tian broke out in a cold sweat thinking about it now.

“Yi, there’s something off!”

Chu Tian found that there were many things wrong when he was recovering. First, he found that the entire world was different compared to before, everything seemed much clearer. The clashing of elemental energy, the energy in space and the flowing spirit veins, every slight change couldn’t escape Chu Tian’s eyes.

Chu Tian could even see every speck of dust floating around him, feeling the hairs of the ants in the holes of every corner. His Divine Sense was more than ten times stronger compared to before!

That’s right!

Chu Tian remembered that in the moment of crisis, he activated the swallowing ability of his main source spiriti, carrying out a life and death battle with the ice spring’s Divine Sense. Finally the mysterious Ice Spirit Flame was defeated and the Netherworld Flame refined it. Not only did it make Chu Tian stronger, it also allowed Chu Tian to swallow the Divine Sense bred in the ice hole for tens of thousands of years.

This was a giant harvest!

Chu Tian’s Divine Sense had broken through, reaching the realm past the “Mind’s Lamp”, reaching the higher “Vision Domain” realm. It can’t be said that Divine Sense cultivation and cultivation itself were unrelated, but there was a large independence between them.

Divine Sense was a way of digging out the power inside a being soul and mind.

Spirit energy was drawing in the energy of the world to use as one’s energy.

The former came from one’s root and the latter came from the world. Who is stronger or weaker cannot be compared, but when Divine Sense wasn’t strong enough, the range of use could be very limited. In comparison to using spirit energy to increase one’s cultivation, it could enhance one’s life and one’s power, so its effects were more clear.

Divine Sense cultivation was very difficult and other than chances or fortuitous encounters, it also required one’s comprehension and other qualities to be high. This kind of hard training method was disregarded by most people. Although Divine Sense had a high value in cultivating and combat, it was not as good as directly increasing one’s strength!

A truly qualified cultivator could not simply chase after strength.

Chu Tian knew that only increasing one’s strength, one could not surpass the limit of one’s realm, so that is why Chu Tian paid attention to his Divine Sense. Only to increase his Divine Sense did not just depend on oneself, but also depended on fortuitous encounters which could only be met and not asked for.

Just this harvest was not enough to justify this danger!

Chu Tian remembered being heavily injured and would require at least half a month to recover, but now he was not injured at all. Instead, his spirit energy increased by a large amount and his cultivation jumped two layers, going from the peak 2nd True Spirit Layer to the peak 3rd True Spirit Layer!

If it wasn’t for the fact there was a bottleneck between the peak 3rd True Spirit Layer and the 4th True Spirit Layer, the large amount of energy gathered within his body would have been enough to reach the 4th True Spirit Layer. What was going on here? Why did is rise so quickly!

This was most likely the increase brought from the Netherworld Flame refining the Ice Spirit Flame.

The biggest regret was that the sword was destroyed in the fight, now it was in the depths of the ice hole. Without the assistance of the Netherworld Sword, his battle strength would be greatly decreased!

Wait a minute.

There was no sword, so where’s the flame?

A sword wasn’t too valuable, the valuable thing was the Netherworld Ghost Flame. Chu Tian looked over his body and he was very surprised to find that in his meridians and his dantian, the flames and spirit energy were perfectly intertwined. The aura of this flame was very much like the Netherworld Flame in the Netherworld Sword.

The Netherworld Flame had swallowed half the Ice Spirit Flame, raising its quality. It had now evolved several times and it couldn’t be compared with before!

Hong!

Chu Tian’s right hand erupted with blue and white flames, passing through his fingers. Although it had swallowed the Ice Spirit Flame, the Netherworld Flame’s nature was still in charge. The two did not fuse together, rather one swallowed the other, so the loser would become the winner’s food.

Without a fire or ice source spirit.

How could the flame directly mix with this spirit energy?

This was a very strange matter, but there was nothing wrong with it and it had instead increased his strength by a large amount.

“Netherworld, how are you right now?”

“I swallowed the Ice Spirit Flame and have evolved, so I can leave the Netherworld Sword, fusing with master’s spirit energy completely. Now I am a part of master’s strength.”

Good!

Very good!

Even if Chu Tian didn’t use his source spirit, his spirit energy itself would be very strong. The more important thing was that Netherworld had evolved because of this, gaining more intelligence, establishing a master and servant relationship with Chu Tian.

This was not quite the same as the little fox.

Chu Tian was the little fox’s master, but if the fox died, Chu Tian wouldn’t die. If Chu Tian died, it would be very hard for the little fox to live. However, the little fox’s personality was a bit too strong and the contract only controlled the little fox’s life, not its thoughts.

Netherworld was not a real being and was completely controlled by Chu Tian. Therefore, when Netherworld developed a personality, it wouldn’t be like the little fox’s. Instead it was one of absolute loyalty and responsibility.

Netherworld was already a top class artificial intelligence.

If its energy body could be strengthened with a Source Energy Matrix, wouldn’t Chu Tian have a super level Smart Brain? This would be very beneficial and convenient, so Chu Tian decided to give it try when he went back.

“Big brother Chu Tian, you’re finally awake!” Vivian felt the movement and immediately came over, “You worried us to death.”

“How long was I out? What happened during that time?”

“Big brother, you still don’t know?” Vivian had a look of admiration as she said in a very exaggerated manner, “You burned the spirit vein of the ice field and large amounts of spiritual energy were blown out, letting us obtain quite a bit of benefits. Even my cultivation increased by quite a bit and Yin Spirit is about to reach the 5th True Spirit Layer! The Death Ice Field is still burning and releasing spiritual energy that surpasses the six spiritual mountains. The Death Ice Field will be a cultivation land not inferior to the six spiritual mountains soon.”

This completely surpassed Chu Tian’s expectations.

Chu Tian didn’t know what was happening, but this wasn’t important. He quickly asked, “How is big sister Bing right now?”

“Big sister Bing is already awake, but she temporarily can’t move.”

“Come, let’s go take a look.”

Chen Bingyu was sitting cross legged in a closed cave. The silver white hair was flowing down, dancing in the wind. There was actually white flames surrounding that mature body and the strange thing was that the flame didn’t burn her.

Seems like Chen Bingyu’s blessings from misfortunes was not lower than Chu Tian’s.

The Ice Spirit Flame had been interrupted halfway through the body possession, so half the Ice Spirit Flame was refined by Chu Tian while the other half entered Chen Bingyu. The ice hole even moved on its own, allowing large amounts of energy enter Chen Bingyu. After that, the Ice Spirit Flame was taken care of by Chu Tian, so this power now belonged to Chen Bingyu.

The Ice Spirit Flame couldn’t just choose anyone to possess.

This was all based on physiques and bloodlines. Chu Tian and Chen Bingyu both took a half of the Ice Spirit Flame. Chu Tian refined it with the Netherworld Flame and after it was refined, it extracted its essence to evolve. Chen Bingyu directly turned the Ice Spirit Flame’s power into her own.

The two sounded the same, but there was a fundamental difference.

On short, Chen Bingyu had increased her powers by a large amount, being around the 5th-6th True Spirit Layer and there was still room for more improvement. Moreover, Chen Bingyu had fire and ice mixed in one body, so her battle power will be greater than before.

“Sorry!” Chen Bingyu saw Chu Tian coming and seeing that this fellow was fine, Chen Bingyu was more relaxed, “The ice spring’s will was too strong, I wasn’t on guard and was misled by it, causing such a dangerous situation to occur. I even implicated you.”

“Don’t say this, I’m very good now.” Chu Tian really didn’t suffer a loss, so he gave a few uncaring laughs, “Just stay here and recuperate. Once we settle the situation, you can become the Great Zhou Queen!”

Chen Bingyu shook her head with a bitter smile.

What queen? She wasn’t interested!

Chu Tian wanted to control the Great Zhou Country, so he needed a subordinate power. Chen Bingyu had already obtained the Great Zhou royal family’s strongest inheritance and had endless future prospects. As long as this news was passed, there would be many people seeking shelter with her!

The position of the Great Zhou Queen, Chen Bingyu couldn’t run away!

Chu Tian was prepared to build the Imperial City near the Death Ice Field. There was abundant spiritual energy near the ice field, so it would develop into a large power. The Great Zhou royal family also had Miracle Commerce behind them, so their influence would be bigger than the six spiritual mountains, giving them a firm grasp over the Great Zhou Country.

“Boss, I’m back!” Nangong Yun brought the people back at this time, “Good news, Yuan Zhennan, Jin Kui, and the others have all submitted. They agree to cooperate with Miracle Commerce as long as their benefits aren’t affected.”

They submitted?

This was also expected!

Chu Tian said with a nod, “This trend already cannot be stopped. We’ll gather the major sects, as well as the medium and small powers of the Great Zhou Country and in the name of justice, we will launch a crusade against the Heavenly Sword Mountain. We’ll take care of this thorn while also sending a message to all the Great Zhou Country’s sects!”

“Alright!” Nangong Yun was filled with confidence, “The Heavenly Sword Mountain’s leaders are already all dead, we can easily destroy them!”
