Chapter 1671: Chapter 1671 White Phosphorus Crystals
Ye Liuyun conjured the Power of Ice to keep himself safe as he continued descending with Qiong Qi.
As they went down, they also started absorbing energy.
They also estimated the flame power of the Immortal Realm, but none could withstand the flames here. So, it’s unlikely that anyone will chase us here.
Not long after, Ye Liuyun could no longer descend.
On the contrary, Qiong Qi was as calm as ever. Only then did Ye Liuyun realize that Qiong Qi’s flame power was much stronger than his own.
"Well then, you should stay here to cultivate, I’ll go down and see whether I can find the source of the fire!" Qiong Qi greeted Ye Liuyun, then continued descending.
Ye Liuyun also stayed in place and started absorbing the power of the Yin-fire. The Ghostic Fire’s energy started growing rapidly.
However, both Ye Liuyun and his doppelganger would never allow the White Phosphorus Flame to devour the Ghostic Fire.
So they would stop training after reaching a certain level, wait for the Ghostic Fire to digest and absorb, and then absorb the power of White Phosphorus Flame.
The two of them, with the strengthening of the Ghostic Fire, continued to descend but at a slower pace.
After some time, Qiong Qi, descending alone, also felt that the temperature of the flame was reaching its limit.
So he took out his battered copper cauldron and sat on it to continue his descent. The cauldron could not only absorb flame but also block heat.
Therefore, Qiong Qi got to the deepest part of the fire source with his cauldron.
"What a large chunk of White Phosphorus Crystal!" ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Qiong Qi was surprised when he saw the fire source.
A glaringly white mountain appeared before Qiong Qi, astonishingly two or three times the size of that Devil Crystal.
Qiong Qi didn’t immediately seize that White Phosphorus Crystal, but instead, turned back to consult Ye Liuyun.
The temperature of the flames here was too high, even affecting the distance limit of their Divine Sense communication.
Ye Liuyun was cultivating. He was suddenly startled to see Qiong Qi, who had been sitting in the copper cauldron, rushing back unexpectedly. Seeing the excited expression on his face, Ye Liuyun knew he had found something good!
"Did you find the fire source?" Ye Liuyun asked directly.
"Of course, look who did it!" Qiong Qi brags at first, then mysteriously asked Ye Liuyun: "The fire source is a White Phosphorus Crystal. Guess how big it is?"
Ye Liuyun had never seen a White Phosphorus Crystal before, so he couldn’t make a guess.
"I’ve never even seen that stuff. What are you asking me to guess?" Ye Liuyun said exasperatedly.
"Really ignorant!" Qiong Qi even mocked Ye Liuyun.
"Let me just tell you, it’s two or three times as big as that Devil Crystal! The power of this flame, though not as pure as the Devil Crystal, is of a similar magnitude even if it’s larger in size!" Qiong Qi explained to Ye Liuyun.
"You can’t extract something that big?" Ye Liuyun asked after hearing these words.
He assumed that the reason why Qiong Qi hadn’t taken away the fire source was that he had nothing to store it in.
"Isn’t this why I’m consulting with you on when to collect it? If I take it now, aren’t we about to face the pursuit of those devil cultivators from above? Are you planning to leave directly via the teleportation Black Tower? Or are you ready to fight your way out? We need to discuss this!" Qiong Qi explained.
"Can you take away all those fire sources?" Ye Liuyun questioned further.
"Absolutely! I can make sure not to leave a single bit behind!" Qiong Qi affirmed.
Ye Liuyun also pondered for a moment, then said, "Then you go down first and bring some up. My doppelganger and I will retreat back into the Xuankong Stone and accelerate our cultivation. When we elevate the power of the Ghostic Fire to the Immortal Realm, then you can retrieve the rest! Let’s fight our way out directly and take it as a form of combat training!"
“Hmm! I was thinking the same thing. Dealing with these trash, using the Teleportation Black Tower is a waste of energy! Don’t forget, you also have the magic weapon for dealing with devil cultivators and Devil Clan."
Qiong Qi reminded him, then dived again, helping Ye Liuyun and his doppelganger to directly obtain some White Phosphorus Crystal for cultivation.
Ye Liuyun knew he was referring to the Devil-sealing Stele. He hadn’t used it for a long time and almost forgot about it.
"That’s right! The Devil-sealing Stele can handle the powerful beings here without much effort! It’s their perfect nemesis."
Ye Liuyun also felt it necessary for the Devil-sealing Stele to absorb some power before they leave.
Soon, Qiong Qi returned with a large amount of White Phosphorus Crystal, but only handed a small portion to Ye Liuyun and his doppelganger, telling them to come back for more once they had exhausted their supply.
Even with a small amount of the White Phosphorus Crystal, Ye Liuyun and his doppelganger could manage it.
So both of them, bearing the White Phosphorus Crystal, retreated into the Xuankong Stone to accelerate their cultivation. Qiong Qi protected them while they cultivated amidst the White Phosphorus Flames.
The quality of the White Phosphorus Crystal was indeed worse than the Devil Crystal. It had many impurities and toxic gas would be produced when it was burned.
As for Ye Liuyun and his doppelganger, they had to cultivate the Ghostic Fire and upgrade their own poison source at the same time. As for their cultivation base, these White Phosphorus Crystal didn’t help much.
The devil cultivators outside guarded for half a month without any movements. They all thought that even if there was a treasure inside, it would’ve been melted by the heat by now, so they became slightly more relaxed in their defense.
At this moment, both Ye Liuyun and his avatar had cultivated the Yin- fire to the Immortal Realm.
Both of them also tried to dive into the place where the White Phosphorus Crystal was located, but despite their Ghostic Fire reaching the Immortal Realm, their power was still insufficient.
"You both don’t need to try anymore. I could only dive down there with the help of this copper cauldron. How much power does such a large White Phosphorus Crystal have! On your own, you’ll need to cultivate for a few more years!"
Qiong Qi watched as they fumbled for a while, offering some advice to them.
"How do we collect such a powerful flame then? Do we store it directly in the Spatial World?" Ye Liuyun asked puzzledly.
"It’s not like it’s all yours! Don’t you want to leave half for me?" Qiong Qi rolled his eyes at Ye Liuyun.
"I know there’s half for you, but even half of the heat would be too much for the Spatial World to bear!" Ye Liuyun explained.
"Why do you worry so much? Your Spatial World already has the Yin-fire and the Power of Ice. Once introduced, these forces will interact with each other and achieve a balance.
When there’s an excess of a particular power, prioritize using that for your cultivation, deplete some of it, and all will be well," Qiong Qi casually replied.
"Can three different powers coexist in harmony?" Ye Liuyun couldn’t wrap his head around it.
"It’s the same with any number of powers. Do you honestly think that with all these Devil Beast you’ve contained, with all the Devil Qi and Devil Crystal, your Spatial World can withstand it all?
The Spatial World, regardless of its size, is a world in itself, and it possesses some basic regulatory functions! Your Spatial World already has such an abundance of energy at its core, it can handle any more energy you throw at it!" Qiong Qi patiently explained to Ye Liuyun.
