Chapter 359: The Soaring Pillar of Fire
Chapter 359: The Soaring Pillar of Fire
As Caiyun absorbed the energy from the Silver Moon Crystal using the "Light Energy Absorption" skill, a burst of silver-white evolution glow suddenly blossomed.
The transformation from the Crimson Feather Chicken to the Silver Crown Crimson Feather Chicken was a mere step, not even a significant one, just a slight adjustment.
Thus, the evolution glow wasn't intense, and it didn't last long, fading away completely after about three minutes.
After the evolution glow subsided, a Crimson Feather Chicken with a proud, erect posture, a large comb emitting a silvery sheen, and a noticeably larger body appeared before Li Qian.
"Cock-a-doodle-doo..." Caiyun, sensing the changes in its body, let out an excited cry, even darting around the cultivation chamber for a while.
Li Qian didn't pay much attention to Caiyun's excitement. Instead, he let it roam in the chamber and then focused his gaze on the Beast Ball containing Jiafa.
A faint red light flashed and vanished, and Jiafa appeared in the cultivation chamber.
Seeing Caiyun's transformation, Jiafa darted out, joining the former in their excited clucking.
Li Qian didn't interrupt them. After they had their moment of affection, he spoke, "Jiafa, you should remember the promise I made to you. I said I would take you to greater heights. Now, do you still have the courage to become stronger?"
"The path ahead is dangerous and full of challenges. If you're afraid or hesitant, you can back out. I'll focus all my resources on Caiyun, and when she soars to the top, she might look down on you, a mere little chick."
This simple goading tactic was unlikely to work on most people, but for Jiafa, with an intelligence akin to a five or six-year-old child, it was highly effective.
Jiafa immediately jumped at Li Qian's words, and its eyes shone with intense fighting spirit.
"Since you're so confident, let's not waste any time. Let's get started!" Li Qian said, seeing Jiafa's eagerness to volunteer.
After saying this, Li Qian took a deep breath and removed the Sun Gold Crystal and the Thousand-Year Volcano Stone from the lab bench.
"Caiyun, come here and watch with me," Li Qian called Caiyun to his side and placed both extraordinary resources in front of Jiafa.
"Be patient, don't rush," Li Qian said, addressing both Jiafa and reminding himself.
Time passed, and after about five or six minutes, Li Qian suddenly shouted, "Now! Use the Light Energy Absorption skill!"
Jiafa didn't hesitate; it trusted Li Qian completely and followed his instructions, activating the Light Energy Absorption skill.
Witnessing this, Li Qian continued, his voice resonating, "Give it your all! Hold nothing back!"
As Li Qian shouted, the radiance emanating from Jiafa intensified, becoming even brighter due to the Light Energy Absorption skill.
Sensing the opportune moment, Li Qian acted swiftly. In front of him, the summoning glow flashed and vanished, and the massive Xiao Liu appeared.
"Use the Flame Spray skill on Jiafa!" Li Qian ordered, pointing at Jiafa after Xiao Liu's appearance.
Xiao Liu was a bit dazed, but its instincts told it that Li Qian wouldn't harm Jiafa. So, without hesitation, it followed Li Qian's command and unleashed the skill.
The creature opened its mouth, and within, a high-temperature flame gathered. Then, like a meteor, it shot out.
The orange-red flame, carrying scorching heat, slammed into Jiafa's body.
The flame instantly spread, almost engulfing half of the cultivation chamber.
Li Qian quickly walked over and pressed the button inside the chamber.
As the button was pressed, the cultivation chamber slowly opened like a blooming flower.
The reason Li Qian chose to open the chamber at this moment was not only because he had already used all his evolution techniques, but also because he wanted to see how Jiafa would handle the situation. Additionally, the temperature inside the chamber was indeed a bit too high, and he was genuinely struggling to endure it.
As the chamber opened, the raging flame instantly appeared in the competition arena, illuminating half of the venue.
"What's going on? Why is there such a huge flame inside the chamber?"
"Is it a failed cultivation?"
"What is he researching? How could it cause such a massive fire?"
"With such a huge fire, it's probably a lost cause!"
"..."
In the spectator stands, the audience members witnessing this scene began to discuss it.
"No, the energy is still gathering. This kid must be preparing a powerful move!" Unlike ordinary spectators, Uncle Sun had a better understanding of Li Qian's abilities. Knowing his capabilities, he was certain that Li Qian wouldn't fail so easily. Moreover, as a cultivation master himself, based on his past cultivation experiences and his own judgment, he had already noticed some clues.
Uncle Sun wasn't the only one who had noticed these clues.
These individuals were mostly team leaders from various Beast Taming Universities or investigators from large companies. Their eyes burned with intensity as they gazed at the blazing flame in the arena, some of them staring intently at the energy detection watches in their hands.
Undoubtedly, their faces wore serious expressions.
"It's starting." Li Qian also stared intently, and at a certain moment, when the flame showed a slight weakening trend, he suddenly spoke, exclaiming softly.
Just as his voice fell, the flame, which had already shown signs of weakening, suddenly erupted like a volcanic explosion, soaring into the sky!
A fire pillar formed, reaching a height of over a hundred meters.
The terrifying high-temperature flame almost painted the entire competition arena in a fiery red hue.
"What's happening?"
"I feel like something big is about to happen!"
"Could it be evolving into a terrifying creature?"
"It should be a fire-type pet beast!"
"..."
The sudden eruption of the fire pillar caught the attention of all the spectators in the venue.
They began to chatter, their voices creating a noisy atmosphere.
Moreover, one could see excitement on their faces.
From this, it seemed that whether it was the Zhong Hua Family in the previous life or the Dongxia Federation in this life, ordinary people seemed to enjoy being spectators, possessing an inherent curiosity.
As countless eyes watched, the soaring fire pillar lasted for about three minutes before a new development occurred.
A golden light, even more condensed, lofty, and majestic, rose another fifty meters.
The sight was quite spectacular.
The fire pillar reached a height of over a hundred meters.
In the middle of the pillar, a golden light pillar emerged.
The diameter of the golden light pillar was smaller than that of the fire pillar.
The fire pillar enveloped the golden light pillar, making it resemble a newly unsheathed sword!
