Chapter 567: Core of the Earth's Fire! News of a Super Fire Domain!
Previously, almost every Flame Sovereign's divine split had a special attraction and control over bird-like companion beasts.
This ability and method were almost derived from the Flame Sovereign's innate power.
Even the Divine Gale Pheasant, an Imperial Rank species with a racial limit, couldn't escape the constraints of this ability.
However, Su Ping finally saw a bird-like companion beast that not only broke free from the Flame Sovereign's control over bird-like beasts but also turned the tables, now controlling the Flame Sovereign's divine splits!
Although Su Ping was curious, this Inferno Blaze Phoenix was restraining these Flame Sovereign's divine splits, why was it doing so?
Most likely, it was for the same reason as Su Ping—to pry into the Flame Sovereign's secrets and heritage.
Furthermore, if possible, perhaps the reason the Inferno Blaze Phoenix had not only advanced to the Peak Holy Spirit, but also achieved Rule Breakthrough, was due to this very reason?
Su Ping didn't know.
But he only knew one thing: with just this, the Inferno Blaze Phoenix before him would probably not be lured or won over and would most likely become his enemy!
"Another one!"
In the phoenix's cry, one could hear the unspoken joy of the Inferno Blaze Phoenix.
Clearly, at this moment, the Inferno Blaze Phoenix had just noticed the little Flame Seed, Little Flame, hovering above Su Ping's head.
And the reason it could say "another one" was even more obvious—it had discovered Little Flame's true identity!
As expected, this Inferno Blaze Phoenix was intentionally collecting these Flame Sovereign's divine splits.
Otherwise, in a place like this, it was impossible for so many Flame Sovereign's divine splits to gather, and most importantly, even if they did, they should have started devouring each other!
Instead, like now, several Imperial Rank Flame Sovereign's divine splits were hanging on the Inferno Blaze Phoenix, yet there was no sign of hostility!
Su Ping had no time to ponder further; upon sensing Little Flame's presence, the Inferno Blaze Phoenix seemed to gain a burst of energy, and its divine eyes, like those of a saint, no longer paid attention to the strange Jia Ji by its side,
Instead, they were all fixed on Su Ping and Little Flame above!
It was as if the Inferno Blaze Phoenix was determined to go all out and win at all costs.
With so many Flame Sovereign's divine splits, and all of them being high-level existences, how could it not go all out?
If it could capture them all, and Little Flame smoothly advanced to the Imperial Rank, he could proceed more smoothly with the next stage of the Southern Brightening Fire, and the Flame Seed's mastery level promotion would also be smoother.
By then, if he spent more effort in cultivating Little Flame and created some high-level combat super-tier skills, perhaps at the Imperial Rank, he could complete the entire second stage of the Southern Brightening Fire's cultivation.
Once that happened, all problems would be solved.
With this thought, Su Ping spoke directly, "Senior, please help me!"
"Rest assured!"
Clearly, Jia Ji had been waiting for these words.
At this moment, the infinite flames seemed to be suppressed by the vast ocean.
The island's volcano in the depths of the sea, and the confrontation between water and fire seemed to break free from the constraints of the terrain, becoming the embodiment of the two companion beasts!
However, just like how a volcano in the depths of the sea could never evaporate all the oceans of Blue Star and the entire Endless Ocean!
The battle between the Peak Holy Spirit and the Legendary Rank, in Su Ping's eyes, seemed a bit too plain and unremarkable.
The power of the domain seemed to envelop the entire world's might, and in the region of the Endless Ocean, a terrifying vortex formed, spreading from the deepest part of the sea to the entire ocean's surface.
The power of this level indeed caused tremendous might and destruction, which was difficult to resist.
Not to mention having the Flame Sovereign's divine splits, the gap between a true Legendary Rank and the Peak Holy Spirit was still evident.
Forget about having the Flame Sovereign's divine splits; even the initial Water and Fire conflict would have been uncertain.
So, almost in the instant that a terrifying flame world formed, like a volcanic eruption, all the ocean vortices in the Endless Ocean seemed to collapse, directly crossing the natural barrier and crashing into the vast volcano.
In the depths of the ocean, amidst the rising white smoke carried by the currents, the Inferno Blaze Phoenix let out a crazed howl.
"Ao!"
The scream lacked the crispness and melody of its previous calls.
Su Ping couldn't help but feel a twinge of disappointment.
Where was the promised Kunshan Jade-Shattering Phoenix cry? Was this pathetic squawk all it could manage?
However, he knew this wasn't the time for such complaints.
"Little Flame!"
Little Flame suddenly extended a fiery tendril, not for any offensive purpose, but with a single intent.
It served as a conduit, a means to summon the Flame Sovereign avatars.
And indeed, after this attack, the Flame Sovereign avatars seemed to lose their stability.
Most importantly, under Jia Ji's control, the water droplets didn't affect the Flame Sovereign avatars.
Su Ping was well aware of the nature of the Flame Sovereign and its avatars.
He understood their essence.
So, Su Ping firmly believed that the Flame Sovereign avatars, lacking self-awareness and wisdom, had only one thought and goal.
To merge! To become one with the Flame Sovereign! Even in defeat, they willingly allowed themselves to be devoured and fused.
It was this mindset that Su Ping trusted.
After being controlled by the Inferno Blaze Phoenix for so long, and possibly having learned many inherited abilities, these Flame Sovereign avatars, once awakened and given the chance to escape, would likely not hesitate to merge with Little Flame.
Of course.
As one of the saviors of their original form.
Su Ping believed that the remaining Flame Sovereign avatars would also willingly become a part of Little Flame's ascension to Flame Sovereign.
With the appearance of this flame, the previously dormant Flame Sovereign avatars suddenly ignited with fervor.
The nearly extinguished flames seemed to be reignited, infused with renewed vitality.
One of the top-tier Imperial Rank Flame Sovereign avatars even began to detach itself from the Inferno Blaze Phoenix.
It slowly floated towards Su Ping.
Just as expected!
This floating flame, like a burning lantern, was the first to escape the chaotic battle, attracting other flames to follow in its wake.
Amidst the burning flames, Su Ping didn't hesitate. With Jia Ji's protection, he took a quick step forward and captured the first Flame Sovereign avatar, also of Imperial Rank, into his Beast Control Space.
This action enraged the Inferno Blaze Phoenix.
"Cree!"
At that moment, the underwater volcano beneath them seemed to respond to the Inferno Blaze Phoenix's call. The raging ocean of magma erupted, enveloping the Inferno Blaze Phoenix.
Flowing Flame Robe!
Su Ping immediately recognized the skill.
It wasn't an extraordinary ability, as Little Crow Ya Ya also possessed it.
But on this Inferno Blaze Phoenix, the skill's activation was extraordinary.
Su Ping realized that this was the skill the Inferno Blaze Phoenix had elevated to the Supreme Mastery level.
Supreme Mastery represented a transformation in skill, its effects not only rivaling but also surpassing super-tier skills in their directness.
It was a manifestation of rule mastery.
And the Flowing Flame Robe was a prime example.
It was the epitome of fine control over flames, primarily serving as a defensive flame skill.
Now, having reached the Supreme Mastery level, the Flowing Flame Robe transformed into a protective layer of pure magma.
With the skill activated, the endless sea of water droplets from the Boundless Ocean formed only a faint white smoke on the Inferno Blaze Phoenix, lacking any direct power.
"Tsk!"
Jia Ji smirked in disdain. While the technique was impressive, it seemed merely satisfactory to her.
However, as the terrifying underwater vortex reformed, threatening to extinguish the volcano in its infancy, something unexpected happened, surprising both Su Ping and Jia Ji.
The Inferno Blaze Phoenix, covered in the Flowing Flame Robe, seemed to prepare for an attack. But instead, it turned and dove headfirst into the magma lake below.
Even Jia Ji, who was ready to counterattack, was momentarily stunned, her brows furrowing.
"Fire-type ferocious beasts are known for their volatile and combative nature. For this Inferno Blaze Phoenix to control its urge to attack, especially when I haven't fully revealed my strength, indicates exceptional intelligence!"
Su Ping's brows knitted in concern.
In just a short time, he had managed to capture around five or six Monarch Rank Flame Sovereign Avatars and the most crucial one, an Imperial Rank Flame Sovereign Avatar, into his Beast Taming Realm.
However, he had only managed to capture half of the Inferno Blaze Phoenix.
Such a harvest was not enough to satisfy him.
He turned to Jia Ji:
"Senior, can you force it out? This volcano is only so big, and there shouldn't be any problems, right?"
Jia Ji nodded, not denying anything.
Moreover, it was undeniable that the Inferno Blaze Phoenix had infuriated her! To dare to toy with her? The best outcome for it was to completely extinguish its flames! With this thought, Jia Ji's figure appeared at the edge of the volcano, and a strand of bluish water slowly condensed, trickling into the magma lake.
The water, barely more than a trickle, flowed into the magma without any signs of drying up, and its speed remained unaffected.
Such a method was incredibly mysterious and baffling.
However, Jia Ji's frown deepened.
Finally, after ten whole minutes, the disturbance Su Ping was waiting for did not occur.
The Inferno Blaze Phoenix seemed to have completely vanished from this world, leaving no trace in the magma lake.
Jia Ji opened her eyes, her face grim:
"This is a connection to the core of the Earth! Su Ping, it's unlikely that the Inferno Blaze Phoenix can be forced out in a short time!"
Clearly, seeing her expression, Su Ping guessed the outcome, but he still asked curiously:
"The core of the Earth?"
Jia Ji nodded:
"Even within a planet like Blue Star, there exists a core. The temperature is extremely high, and the most crucial factor is not the heat.
As one approaches the core, the restrictions of Blue Star's rules become more significant, and the effectiveness of skills and rule energy diminishes.
Even a pure Fire-type Holy Spirit like the Inferno Blaze Phoenix can freely stay here, but my energy cannot completely penetrate and force it out.
Moreover, the core's area is indeed vast, and the magma fire is endless. If I forcefully enter, it's uncertain who will perish!"
Even a Legendary Rank existence would need to be cautious in such an environment.
This was undoubtedly the case at hand.
Su Ping's frown relaxed.
If a Legendary Rank couldn't handle it, there was no point in him worrying about it.
He might as well think of something more cheerful! For instance, this core of the Earth, according to Jia Ji, was clearly the place where magma fire was refined!
The second stage of Southern Brightening Fire's final improvement! To ignite the Flame Seed and elevate the Flame Seed skill from Proficiency Rank to Perfect Rank, one needs Life Flame, Soul Flame, Solar Flame, and Magma Flame.
Originally, for Su Ping, these four flames were indeed the most challenging, especially the Magma Flame.
The others were attainable.
But he had no idea where to find the Magma Flame.
So, the current situation could be considered a silver lining after all the setbacks.
Little Flame could complete the final breakthrough and promotion of the Flame Seed here.
With this in mind, Su Ping made a note of the location.
Meanwhile, back in the Beast Taming Realm, Little Flame didn't rush to devour the other Flame Sovereign Avatars who had willingly surrendered. Instead, she conveyed an extremely special and precious piece of information.
At the same time, this seemed to be the primary reason why the Inferno Blaze Phoenix valued the Flame Sovereign Avatar so much.
Through contact with the Imperial Rank Flame Sovereign Avatar, Little Flame had obtained some intelligence.
Upon reaching the Imperial Rank, a Flame Sovereign Avatar would receive information about a super-tier Fire-type skill from the Flame Sovereign.
And the captured Imperial Rank Flame Sovereign Avatar in front of them was proof of this!
