“End of the second round of matches. After an hour break, we’ll continue with the third round!” A loud voice reverberated throughout the entire Hall of Life and Death. Hidden in that voice was a slight hint of delight as the majority of new Transcendents would not even have the qualifications to start a battle among the third round of matches. Even as the emissary in charge of the Infernal Palace’s matters, such words were rarely spoken.

“Hong long long~~~” The gates of the Hall of Life and Death were once again, opened.

Countless mortals and even Transcendents were still excitedly talking about Xue Ying. After all, any single Transcendent who could kill his way through to the third round of battles was someone worthy of admiration.

As for Xue Ying, he went through an opened side-door in one of the corners of the battleground.

…

Within a pavilion in the gardens.

Xue Ying stood around thoughtfully while absorbing the Origin Stone in his hand to replenish the energy used previously. Still, the previous battle did not consume too much of his energy reserve. With the outbreak of his Power Bloodline, he had instantly eliminated his opponent. As for the injuries on his body that had been incurred, more than half of them had long been recovered! Within the time taken to brew a cup of tea, Xue Ying had absorbed the ‘Primitive World Energy’ within the Origin Stone, reaching an optimal condition in both his state of mind and physique!

With a flip of his hand, Xue Ying took out his spear and started training.

‘The spear techniques I’m currently using are still too weak in power. At the time of attack, the explosive power isn’t clean enough.’ Xue Ying stood where he was, and with a turn of his wrist, the spear traversed through an arc before stabbing out! Flames accompanied the stab, bringing out quite a frightening explosive power with it. The waves of air produced from the after-effects smashed into the distant walls in the garden, though no damage could be seen.

‘I need to make the explosive attack even cleaner! Executing it sloppily will only lessen the explosive power.’ Previously in the battle, Xue Ying had sudden inspirations that led to the discovery of a multitude of problems in his spear techniques. Even after the battle ended, he was still thinking about how to refine his spear technique.

“Pu.”

“Pu.”

As the spear was stabbed outwards, some occasional slight changes could be seen.

Xue Ying was pondering and finding the right move that would be suited to his theory. Drifting flames surrounded him as he extended his senses to feel the endless Profound Mysteries hidden behind the World Flame. He searched for an answer.

Half an hour later.

“This time, I’ll succeed.” Xue Ying’s eyes brightened as he, once again, stabbed out with his spear.

The spear was just like a flaming meteor, thrusting out explosively at a speed akin to lightning. Traces of flames were left behind in the air from his attack.

Clean stab!

Even though it was seemingly ordinary and with an even weaker momentum as compared to his previous attack, the current power was much more focused. This change allowed the attacking power to become even more fearsome!

‘I was too foolish in blindly chasing after the explosive power of flames previously. In reality, completely condensing the explosive power into a single point would have an even greater power.’ An expression of joy broke out on Xue Ying’s face as he stabbed out with his spear once again, pu pu pu… Vestiges of the spear were seen. The resounding echo from the attack became softer. Instead, traces of flames from the meteor-like attack were seen staying in the air for a long period of time.

Having condensed the explosive attack completely to a single point, its power became even greater.

Hu~~~

With a single thought, Xue Ying controlled the power of World Flame in the surroundings. Clearly, his control of the World Flame had increased greatly. Countless Flame started gathering before condensing into one that burned hotter! There was a great increase in the suppressive power of this current flame!

‘Realm of Myriad Existences second level!’ Xue Ying laughed, ‘I’ve finally reached the second level of the Realm of Myriad Existences in my understanding of the Profound Mystery of Fire!’

Having a breakthrough in comprehension of the Realms, there would be a qualitative change in his control of the World Energy!
