Chapter 69: Chapter 68: Illusion Spirit Imitates Blue Flame

Translator: 549690339

As the temperature around Li Fan rose, the figure of the Crimson Flame in his Spirit Consciousness became clearer again.

However…

Even if Li Fan pushed the Xuan Huang Heart-Refining Spell to its limit, disregarding the faint smell of burning coming from his body.

Just a moment before the Crimson Flame Spirit was about to take form, Li Fan inexplicably withdrew from the meditative state.

“Could it be that it's too hot, exceeding the limits of my body's endurance?”

Li Fan pondered and began searching in the Tianxuan Mirror for medications that could withstand high temperatures.

At the cost of 10 contribution points, he bought a Frostheart Pill.

Upon consuming it, Li Fan began to try again.

This time, when the sensation of the flame's heat emerged from the Crimson Flame's visualization, a wave of icy coldness also emerged from his Dantian.

This feeling circulated through his body, suppressing the heat.

Without having to distract himself to suppress the discomfort in his body, Li Fan concentrated all his attention and gathered the Crimson Flame Spirit.

But…

It was useless!

The Spirit shattered at the last moment before it could take shape.

An unseen force seemed to deliberately obstruct it, preventing the Spirit from forming.

After over a dozen attempts, the effect of the Frostheart Pill began to fade.

Li Fan stopped.

“Essence of Heaven and Earth is truly extraordinary, even its imaginary model can't be materialized into a Spirit…”

“There must be some rule that I am not aware of limiting this.”

Li Fan thought about it and began searching the Tianxuan Mirror for information related to Essence of Heaven and Earth.

As he expected, the Tianxuan Mirror indicated that his authority was insufficient to view it.

For a time, Li Fan's intent to cultivate the Crimson Flame Spirit reached a deadlock.

However, he had no intention of giving up.

The greater the barrier, the greater the reward once it's overcome.

The might of the Essence of Heaven and Earth is evident, even gaining a tiny fraction of it would be significant.

However, a detailed plan needs to be considered.

Thus, Li Fan maintained his instrumental cultivation aid, quietly thinking with closed eyes whilst in the state of Enlightenment.

One day, two days, three days…

Time passed day by day, and his contribution points were also slowly being consumed.

Finally, after seven days, Li Fan opened his eyes.

The Essence of Heaven and Earth is a manifestation of a certain Principle in

Heaven and Earth.

If the flame within Crimson Flame represents a law related to the flame, then what does the crimson part of the Crimson Flame signify? Are there other types of flame besides the Crimson Flame?

Li Fan immediately set about to test.

Still picturing the Essence of Heaven and Earth in his mind, the image and aura were identical to the Crimson Flame in his memory.

However, the image's color changed from crimson to green.

This time, the Spirit took shape smoothly. But it was extremely weak, like an empty shell without any offensive power.

He dismissed the newborn Spirit in his Spirit Consciousness.

Li Fan tried again.

This time, the color shifted from green to black.

Just like the Crimson Flame, the black flame couldn't form a Spirit. But what differed it was the lack of the burning sensation when visualizing the Black Flame.

He tried again with a different color.

Li Fan tried all the colors he could think of.

What he found was that there were four scenarios in total.

The first one, similar to the Crimson Flame, couldn't form and brought a roasting sensation during visualization.

The second type, just like the Green Flame, could form but was like an empty shell without any strength.

The third type was like the Black Flame, unable to form and didn't bring any unusual phenomenon during the process.

And the fourth one was the most peculiar.

In Li Fan's Spirit Consciousness, an illusory shadow nearly identical to the Crimson Flame slowly formed.

The only difference was that its color was blue.

As the Blue Flame Spirit slowly appeared, the temperature around Li Fan's body began to drop significantly.

A layer of frost spread out from the ground where Li Fan stood.

His hair and eyebrows were covered in hoarfrost, and his body gradually became as rigid as a block of ice.

The Xuan Huang Heart-Refining Spell that had been operating silently was also influenced and started to slow down, as if it might stop at any moment. Li Fan's heartbeat slowed down and his breathing rapidly weakened.

But Li Fan's consciousness fell into a strange state.

It was as if his soul had left his body, and he watched the changes in his body as an outsider.

He was without any emotional fluctuations.

Li Fan had a premonition that in this state, even if his body were destroyed and he was about to perish in the next moment, he wouldn't feel any fear.

This was a state of absolute calmness and rationality.

In this state, Li Fan watched as his body was completely frozen.

It seemed to fall to absolute zero, into absolute silence.

At the same time, the Blue Flame Spirit in Li Fan's consciousness fully took shape.

The temperature didn't rise, but vitality quickly appeared on Li Fan.

It was as if the absolute cold could no longer affect Li Fan.

With a shift in his Spirit Consciousness, the Blue Flame in the consciousness gently pulsated, and the extreme coldness on his body quickly disappeared.

In the blink of an eye, Li Fan returned to his normal state and withdrew from the state of absolute rationality.

It was as if the extreme coldness was an illusion, leaving no trace behind.

“Is this, the power of the Blue Flame?”

In the Spirit Consciousness, the young Blue Flame Spirit fell into a deep sleep.

But Li Fan knew that he could awaken it anytime, and recreate that state just now.

“The four scenarios encountered when visualizing the illusory images of different colored flames should correspond to the state of the Essence of

Heaven and Earth.”

After some thought, Li Fan came up with his conjecture.

The Essence of Heaven and Earth is a manifest Incarnation of the Heavenly Dao rules, and the cultivators here can also cultivate the Essence of Heaven and Earth to achieve the Realm of Unification.

Then, those that are able to form during the previous visualization process but have no power should represent the type of Essence of Heaven and Earth that does not exist.

While those that are unable to form such as the Crimson Flame, should be within the system of the Heaven-Earth Principle but can't be possessed by me, and like the Black Flame, should have been cultivated by a Unity-Path cultivator and no longer exist within the Principality of this world.

Then, what does this Blue Flame represent? “A rule about life and its formation?”

After a long while, Li Fan let out a long breath, burying his various guesses about the Essence of Heaven and Earth deep in his mind.

Regardless, even though he didn't cultivate the Crimson Flame Spirit, he unexpectedly visualized the Blue Flame Spirit.

While the two have opposite properties, the power of the Blue Flame didn't seem to be inferior to the Crimson Flame.

Pleased with himself, Li Fan capitalized on the momentum to carry on cultivating “The Mystical Art of the Nether Spirit”.

He tried to grow the Blue Flame Spirit to attack others with Spirit Consciousness manipulation.

Time slowly passed amidst Li Fan's cultivation.

Not long after, Li Fan suddenly retreated from the assisting cultivation mode.

Turns out, due to the long-term cultivation, his contribution points were once again down to just over a hundred..
