Chapter 278: The True Mystic Flame!

“Fool, that’s not the true Mystic Flame. It’s a Mystic Void Flame.” Grand Elder Ba Bi commented.

“Fake?” Yang Dingtian replied in disbelief, “Yan Bieqin devoured and refined a fake Mystic Flame? How is this possible? The Mystic Flame I saw was filled with vigorous vitality.”

“Did I ever say that it’s a fake one?” Grand Elder Ba Bi commented, “That Mirage Void Flame is also a Mystic Flame. It would appear similar to the true Mystic Flame and would have its own divine sense and spirit. However, the energy contained within it is only one-tenth of a genuine Mystic Flame.”

“Every Mystic Flame would have a mirage?” Yang Dingtian inquired.

“Of course not.” Ba Bi replied, “Only a small minority of Mystic Flame would possess it. But the Mystic Flames, with a mirage, are extremely strong. They’re the king among the Mystic Flames.”

Immediately, Yang Dingtian was dumbstruck.

He never once imagined that Yan Bieqin had just devoured and refined a Mirage Void Flame and not the true Mystic Flame.

“Senior, where is the true Mystic Flame at?” Yang Dingtian inquired.

Ba Bi replied, “I’m bringing you over to see it. However, you should know that after you get to know this secret, you will no longer be able to stay alive. I will have to kill you. I will kill you after you have seen the true Mystic Flame. Understand?”

“Of course, I understand.” Yang Dingtian smiled coldly immediately.

“Good that you understand. Let’s go. The true Mystic Flame just so happens to mature and bloom right now. We can just pluck it off directly. Son, you can be like mother soon, remaining young forever.” Ba Bi used one hand to hold onto Yang Dingtian while carrying her son on the other as she dived down, and all the hard cold ice around was turned into powder.

Currently, Yang Dingtian also wished to know where the true Mystic Flame was at even if it meant death.

***

Ba Bi kept diving down after breaking through kilometers of cold ice.

Very quickly, they arrived at a familiar location. Unexpectedly, it was the unfreezing pool.

Subsequently, Ba Bi grabbed onto the two of them and jumped into the unfreezing pool.

“Senior Ba Bi, this unfreezing pool is too cold. Your son wouldn’t be able to endure it and would freeze to death.” Yang Dingtian commented.

He didn’t lie. Ba Bi’s son was old and weak. He wouldn’t be able to resist against the coldness of the unfreezing pool.

But after jumping into the unfreezing pool, Yang Dingtian realized that the unfreezing pool was no longer cold.

That bone-chilling coldness had actually disappeared. The water had actually become a room temperature water and was even somewhat warm.

Why would it be like this?

A moment ago, the unfreezing pool was still astonishingly cold. But now, it was no longer cold at all.

Ba Bi carried Yang Dingtian on one of her hands while her son on the other as she dived down rapidly.

As they dived deeper, the water temperature remained the same. It was still warm.

Yang Dingtian was puzzled. Could this not be the unfreezing pool but another pool?

Impossible, this was the unfreezing pool.

However, the kilometers deep coldness should be terrifying.

The unfreezing pool was also in the shape of a funnel, and the widest region was no less than several kilometers wide.

Therefore, the volume of this unfreezing pool was terrifying. The volume of the unfreezing pool in the abandoned mine cavern was around a thousandth of this. Yet, it had already nurtured 999 ten thousand years old blood black gold.

Then, what would this huge unfreezing pool give birth to? What kind of object would actually devour so much heat and produce so much unfreezing water?

The answer was already extremely clear.

The true Mystic Flame. Only the true Mystic Flame would need such a large quantity of heat. Only a true Mystic Flame would be able to produce such an astonishing volume of unfreezing pool.

Then where would the true Mystic Flame be? The answer was already extremely clear.

Right, it was at the bottom of this unfreezing pool.

It was within that narrow space above the circular crystal stone. That was where the real Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame was born.

That warm crystal stone was the altar of the Mystic Flame.

No wonder the mystic qi there was extremely dense. No wonder that crystal stone was able to release a constant stream of energy. No wonder the space above the crystal stone could remain warm even though it was below the extremely cold unfreezing water.

The supreme rank coal-seam fire had its own altar, so did the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame.

Currently, Yang Dingtian had no choice but to laugh bitterly. A moment ago, he had always been above the crystal stone altar, which was the location of where the Mystic Flame was going to be born. However, he left because he wanted to take advantage of the crisis and contest over that Mirage Void Flame.

Yang Dingtian truly had no idea if he should cry or laugh.

Everything turned into a sigh.

Currently, Dongfang Bingling was still beneath the unfreezing pool, and it was unknown if she had woken up.

***

Ba Bi continued to dive deeper while carrying Yang Dingtian and her son.

Very quickly, the trio passed through kilometers of waters and exited as they descended onto the red crystal stone altar.

However, Yang Dingtian and Ba Bi were rendered stupefied after they had rushed out from the water.

There was a beautiful flame that was completely blue in color.

It was extremely pure, enchanting and astonishing.

It didn’t contain any countenance of a flame and was like a blue fairy.

It had actually turned into a beautiful human silhouette after swaying for a moment.

This flame had actually turned into a human form. It looked extremely elegant, beautiful and alluring.

And this was the true Mystic Flame.

Previously, that Mirage Void Flame had its own divine sense and vitality. However, it was too puerile.

This Mystic Flame before him was truly filled with vitality.

This true Mystic Flame was countless fold more beautiful than the Mirage Void Flame.

Yang Dingtian wanted to cry out in surprise when he saw such a beautiful Mystic Flame. However, what caused him and Ba Bi to cry out in surprise wasn’t because of this. Rather, it was because Dongfang Bingling was seated on the ground with both her hands clasping onto the Mystic Flame. She was currently looking eye to eye with the Mystic Flame that had turned into a beauty. Subsequently, she inhaled and was about to devour this Mystic Flame.

Yang Dingtian was also clearly able to see the form the Mystic Flame had taken. It was a small Dongfang Bingling. Regardless was it the stature or facial features, it looked exactly the same as Dongfang Bingling.

However, Dongfang Bingling was as cold as the ice while the beauty the Mystic Flame had transformed into was charming and alluring.

And the most crucial point was the current Dongfang Bingling didn’t look frail or injured. Clearly, she was at her optimal state.

“No...” Grand elder Ba Bi issued a mournful cry when she saw the scene.

“My Mystic Flame, my Million Spirit Demon Flame. My son’s immortality...”

“Witch, you actually dared to snatch away my Mystic Flame. You actually dared to destroy my son. I’m going to kill you. I’m going to kill you...”

Grand Elder Ba Bi was about to crumble and turn crazy.

She had waited for a hundred years just for this Mystic Flame. She wanted to let her son devour this Mystic Flame and live for a few hundred years just like her.

Now, all of this had been destroyed.

This Mystic Flame now belonged to Dongfang Bingling.

She was able to distinctly see that Dongfang Bingling had already poured her mystic qi and divine senses into the Mystic Flame with only the devouring and refinement process left.

At this point in time, she wouldn’t be able to snatch away the Mystic Flame, even if she killed Dongfang Bingling. There would only be a conclusion if she were to kill Dongfang Bingling, which would cause the Mystic Flame to go berserk.

A moment ago, Ba Bi had named this Mystic Flame as the Million Spirit Demon Flame. The reason was that the spirit of this Mystic Flame was condensed from millions of vengeance souls beneath the Burial Land. Therefore, it was called the Million Spirit Demon Flame.

Since thousands of years ago, the Burial Land had always been the only battlefield for the Half-Human Race. The number of half-humans that had died here was far more than ten million.

A Mystic Flame spirit that was formed from millions of vengeance souls and several thousands of corpses buried beneath. Therefore, one could well imagine how strong this Million Spirit Demon Flame was. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been able to give rise to a Mirage Void Flame.

There would only be an ending if such a formidable Million Spirit Demon Flame were to go berserk.

The whole Burial Land would be destroyed while heaven would fall, and the earth would rend. Everyone here would be annihilated instantly.

In short, the might of this Mystic Flame had exceeded a nuclear bomb.

If she were to kill Dongfang Bingling, Ba Bi, her son and Yang Dingtian would die as well.

Grand Elder Ba Bi was obviously very clear on this point.

Therefore, she calmed down very quickly before going berserk due to her anger.

Grand Elder Ba Bi looked at the fairy-like beauty, Dongfang Bingling, as she spoke unhurriedly, “Young lady, let’s make a deal.”

Dongfang Bingling continued to interact with the Mystic Flame and did not give any reply.

“This Million Spirit Demon Flame was formed from the whole East Parting Grassland heat energy together with millions of vengeance souls. It is extremely powerful, and once you devour this Mystic Flame, you can aspire to be the strongest in this world.” Grand Elder Ba Bi continued, “I can give this Mystic Flame to you if you wish to have it. What I want is to let my son live for another 100 years.”

Dongfang Bingling continued to devour this Million Spirit Demon Flame unhurriedly and did not give a reply.

Ba Bi was angered. She inhaled deeply, “You ought to be an extremely pure young lady. How about this. Immediately sleep with my son after you had devoured and refined this Mystic Flame. After which, use the Yin Yang Devour Mystic Ritual and transfer a portion of the Mystic Flame energy into my son’s body. I don’t need much, just a percent of it will do. Previously, I had devoured the Mirage Void Flame, and it allowed my countenance to not age for 200 years. This is a true Mystic Flame. Therefore, so long as a percent of the energy is transferred to my son’s body, it will be sufficient for him to live on for another hundred years.”

Yang Dingtian was immediately angered when he heard this as he looked towards Ba Bi.

Ba Bi continued, “You’re going to expand your illusory innocence. Such a powerful lady like you will never place such a thing like this in your eyes at all. In return, you obtained an opportunity to become the strongest in this world. So, are you going to agree to this transaction?”

Subsequently, Ba Bi’s complexion became gloomy and cold, “I’m only left with my son. I’m willing to do anything not to let him get old. Therefore, young lady, I will have to kill you if you aren’t going to agree to my condition. After which, I will wait for the Mystic Flame to explode due to going berserk as it destroys everything here. Every one of us will just perish together.”
