Chapter 927: Moving Forward (2/2)
The True Flame Incantation allowed its users to channel Heavenflame Essence into their flame power cores, where it would be refined and used to temper them.
The True Flame Incantation seemed rather straightforward, and he didn’t encounter much trouble practicing it. As he consumed an increasingly large amount of Heavenflame Crystals, his flame power core became more refined, and came to hold more Heavenflame Essence.
While he practiced the True Flame Incantation, his flame power sub-soul in his sea of awareness derived new enlightenment of Flaming Finger Swords.
In a secret room inside the ancient starship, Nie Tian exclaimed inwardly, “Flaming Finger Swords!”
WHOOSH!
His flame power sub-soul immediately summoned flame power by relying on its seamless connection to his flame power core in his spiritual sea. Blazing flame power poured out of his flame power core and rushed through his arm meridians like rivers of flames.
FZZZ!
Tiny crimson sparks suddenly flew from Nie Tian’s fingertips.
Immediately afterwards, a small sword of flames came to form at the tip of every finger. Each flaming sword looked as if it had been forged from Heavenflame Crystals.
Since they were only the size of his fingers, they didn’t seem very intimidating.
However, as soon as they came to form, Nie Tian shrewdly discovered that his flame power core had suddenly been drained of half its flame power!
According to the descriptions of Flaming Finger Swords, which was an Earth grade incantation, casters with profound cultivation bases would be able to form flaming swords that were several meters long at the tips of their fingers, with which they would be able to pierce through flesh and bone, and burn living beings to ashes.
PUFF!
The small flaming sword at the tip of his left index finger suddenly shot out and pierced into the solid wall.
A small hole instantly appeared in the wall, with sparks flickering inside.
Nie Tian pondered briefly before taking the bone of a sixth grade spirit beast from within his ring of holding.
PUFF!
Another flaming sword left his middle finger and shot into the thick bone.
The bone instantly caught fire and turned black. Heavenflame Essence could be seen burning fiercely in the flames as the bone was soon reduced to ashes, along with every bit of residual flesh power within it.
“Its destructive force is quite impressive.” Nie Tian muttered as he withdrew from his cultivation state. However, as soon as he did, his brow furrowed.
For some reason, he had a feeling that a set of eyes was lurking somewhere in the starry river and looking closely at him.
SHEW!
Jing Feiyang suddenly rushed into his secret room and fixed him with an astonished gaze. “Do you feel like you’re being examined by something, Nie Tian?”
Nie Tian nodded slightly. “Yes, I do, but I thought it was my misconception.”
“It’s not!” Jing Feiyang said with a nervous look on his face. “This is strange. The incantations you were practicing aren’t that special. Don’t tell me that that thing has sensed something special? It shouldn’t be. Things like this haven’t happened in hundreds of years.”
Nie Tian was dumbfounded. “What in the world are you talking about, Senior Jing?”
Brow furrowed, Jing Feiyang said, “Now, we’re out of the Domain of Heaven Python, and heading towards the Domain of Endless Snow. However, there used to be another domain between the Domain of Heaven Python and the Domain of Endless Snow. It was called the Domain of Flame’s End, and the Qi warriors who founded the Divine Flame Sect were originally from there.
“Do you know how the Divine Flame Sect got its name?”
“How?” Nie Tian asked, looking confused.
“Well… about seven thousand years ago, a burning meteor flew into the Domain of Flame’s End. It brought a sea of flames that quickly engulfed the entire domain, plunging its people into a world of suffering and misery.” Jing Feiyang had deep fear in his eyes as he described that calamity. “Many Qi warriors, including Saint domain experts, were burned to death.
“However, some Qi warriors survived, and reestablished their sect in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries.
“This sect was later known as the Divine Flame Sect. They came up with this name because the meteor that had crashed into the Domain of Flame’s End turned out to have a cluster of flames inside of it, which was a Heaven Nourished grade spiritual material called the Divine Flame.
“Now, thousands of years have passed, and that burning meteor is still wandering the remains of the Domain of Flame’s End. It has attacked quite a few passersby who practice special flame power incantations and burned them to ashes.”
