Chapter 972: Flame Evolution

When Qu Chendan and Di Jie were leaving, they were still in disbelief. According to Mo Wuji's words, they could easily grow top grade Green Dew Rice. If top grade Green Dew Rice could be grown so easily, then it wouldn't be so valuable.

However, they still held great expectations that Mo Wuji's words were true. Thus, after Mo Wuji finished teaching, the two hurriedly bade their farewells as they rushed back to try it out.

Mo Wuji's gains were not small too. After sending Qu Chendan and Di Jie off, he immediately left Shuai Guo and Chi Chuan some instructions, then left High Firmament City.

To Mo Wuji, what he needed to do most urgently was to evolve his Scholar's Heart. However, High Firmament City wasn't the same as Cosmos Edge; in High Firmament City, he wasn't the same overbearing Sect Head Mo.

With his current power, he completely didn't dare to bring out his primal fire crystal in High Firmament City to evolve his Scholar's Heart. Even if he had placed seals, he wouldn't dare to do so.

If the energy of a primal treasure ever gets revealed, people would definitely rush over in swarms. Mo Wuji knew that his power was extremely low. Back in God Domain, it was because he had been pressured with no means of retreat that he had to traverse the Nirvana Ocean of Extinction to get to God Continent.

Now that he had just arrived in God Continent, he did not hope to be forced into such a situation again.

At the same time, Mo Wuji also wanted to make a trip to Dew Drop God City. According to what Qu Chendan said, there will be an auction held in Dew Drop God City in a few days. Not only would there be a primal fire crystal, there would also be a Rootless God Steel.

The Rootless God Steel was a Houtian material, but the value of some Xiantian materials might not even compare to it. The reason was that the Rootless God Steel was a material that had no elemental affinity. Even a person that had no experience with forging equipment could forge a magic treasure with such a material.

The most important point was that after being forged into a magic treasure, the Rootless God Steel would evolve on its own. When it reaches its final state, it definitely wouldn't be weaker than a Xiantian treasure. This point was similar to Mo Wuji's Medicinal Cauldron Stone; it was just that the Medicinal Cauldron Stone was a Xiantian treasure.

But just this point alone makes the Rootless God Steel far more valuable. If your abilities were lacking, you wouldn't dare to use a Xiantian treasure even if you obtained one. However, this wasn't the same for the Rootless God Steel; after it becomes your magic treasure, it would have the aura of an ordinary magic treasure. No one could see through it.

Among the top five Houtian treasures in God World, the Rootless God Steel was ranked third. The other four materials were: World Stone, Void Waterseal, Ferry Bamboo, and Thoughtless Gold.

Ever since he was in God Domain, Mo Wuji's magic treasure had been that ugly halberd which is forged for himself. His Half Moon Weighted Halberd was no longer able to make the mark.

When the differences in cultivation levels weren't very big, the disparity between magic treasures would decide between victory and defeat. Thus, Mo Wuji intended to purchase this Rootless God Steel. That way, he would have something that he could protect himself with.

There wasn't a transfer array between Dew Drop God City and High Firmament God City, and the distance between the two cities was two days worth of travel. According to what Qu Chendan said, the auction will be held four days later. Thus, this was enough for Mo Wuji.

One day later, Mo Wuji appeared beside a vast canyon far from High Firmament City. Within this canyon, Mo Wuji found a nice, spacious area. Thereafter, he prepared layers of arrays and seals. Only then, did he bring out his Scholar's Heart.

The nine sprouts within the Scholar's Heart were green in colour. Clearly, this Scholar's Heart was already at the peak of a Grade 9 immortal flame.

Mo Wuji then took out a primal fire crystal. This primal fire crystal really deserved its name as a primal treasure. Back when it evolved the Scholar's Heart to a Grade 9 immortal flame, it didn't even deplete by a single bit.

Indeed, the moment Mo Wuji brought out the primal fire crystal, his Scholar's Heart began to dance in glee. It directly swept away the crystal from Mo Wuji's hands.

The fire suddenly expanded till it was tens of meters tall. Thereafter, the four fire sprouts within the core of the fire began to merge. Mo Wuji could clearly feel the temperature of his Scholar's Heart rising. In a short time, the temperature rose to a terrifying degree.

Even though it was a fire, Mo Wuji could hear cracking sounds from within the flame. It seemed as though some Laws were being broken while new ones were being formed.

One hour later, Scholar's Heart rapidly receded. A blue, to the point where it looked like it could drip water, flame appeared in Mo Wuji's hand. Mo Wuji could clearly see three faint lines of gold on his Scholar's Heart.

A familiar feeling swept over. Mo Wuji could feel a terrifying temperature which was more than tens times stronger than an immortal flame. There seemed to be a life within the core of the Scholar's Heart; Mo Wuji could even feel its life force.

Grade 3 god flame. Mo Wuji was extremely contented. Indeed, the primal fire crystal was amazing; his Scholar's Heart was able to evolve to a Grade 3 god flame just like this. Moreover, this was with his low cultivation. Otherwise, it wouldn't be impossible for his Scholar's Heart to evolve to higher grades.

It definitely wouldn't be simple to purchase the primal fire crystal during that auction. With his current abilities, he could only bring out his Golden Nirvana Dao Sand. But as for whether that sand could be used to exchange for the fire crystal, it's hard to tell.

Even if the Golden Nirvana Dao Sand was any more precious, it was a far cry from the primal fire crystal. His only hope was that the Golden Nirvana Dao Sand was something that all God Kings desired greatly; a treasure that could provide God Kings with a chance of stepping into the Unity God Stage.

This time, evolving his Scholar's Heart into a god flame did manage to deplete the primal fire crystal. However, this depletion was limited. Clearly, even a god flame wouldn't use too much of his primal fire crystal.
