YM778.TV Chapter 139: Fire Crystal
Long Wei and Su Linhua held absolute authority over the trial ground, yet there was a single exception they couldn\'t tamper with or even relocate.
Positioned between the two statues, this red crystal stood untouched.
"We attempted to activate and understand that object countless times, but it never showed any response from us. Eventually, Long Wei and I deemed it an insignificant crystal, yet now..."
Her view had drastically changed, for the crystal now emanated an intense, scorching flame that even caused both her and Long Wei to experience a sense of danger.
She was more surprised to see that Long Wei was feeling threatened.
Being an Ice Phoenix, it was natural for her to be frightened by the fire emanating from that crystal.
However, Long Wei was a damn dragon!
Dragons are known for their affinity for fire.
So for him to feel threatened by the flame emitting from the crystal, it must have been incredibly powerful.
This revelation made her question the true nature and potential of the crystal. Perhaps it wasn\'t useless after all.
As she and Long Wei were watching the flames flicker and dance within the crystal, Su Linhua\'s fear began to transform into curiosity.
She started to wonder if there was more to the crystal than just for show.
Could it hold some hidden power or significance?
"Hey, we need to stop that kid!"
Long Wei urged, noticing that Su Linhua was still captivated by the flames. He felt the need to remind her about the ongoing situation.
"Y-Your right!"
She completely forgot the cause of all this mess.
Just as both of them were about to spring into action, a sudden surge of energy emanated from the crystal, causing them to freeze in place.
The flames grew brighter and more intense, swirling within the crystal.
The support that was holding the crystal in place started to crack as the energy surged through it.
"That bad!"
Long Wei and Su Linhua\'s eyes widened in horror as they realized the impending danger.
"Su Linhua, quick, protect the girl." Long Wei commanded, his voice filled with urgency.
Su Linhua nodded and quickly vanished, reappearing next to Su Bingxin who was on the 89th step. A protective barrier enveloped them both.
The unexpected arrival of Su Linhua and the swift formation of the protective barrier caught Su Bingxin off guard.
Meanwhile, Long Wei concentrated his energy, and something akin to spiritual Qi but on a much larger scale emanated from within him.
The ground beneath him trembled as he unleashed his power, engulfing every participant left on the Ice staircase with his energy and immediately transporting them outside the trial ground.
Suddenly, the flame inside the fire crystal started to flicker and grow brighter, casting a warm glow across the area.
|Crackk|
A loud cracking sound filled the air, as the support that held the fire crystal shattered into pieces.
|BOOMM|
"No, Chen Tian!!"
Su Bingxin let out a scream as a great explosion erupted, sending shockwaves through the place.
Both the staircase and the top of the trial ground were obliterated in the blast.
Not only that, but the platform where all the participants were before starting climbing was completely destroyed, leaving nothing.
|ZCRZCZCCZ|
"What happened?!"
"Did the realm explode!"
Outside the mystic realm, all eyes looked at the screen that stopped showing the live feed as if it had lost connection with the realm.
"NO!! My granddaughter is there!"
"My son was also there."
Panic and confusion spread among the spectators as they anxiously waited.
The sudden and unexpected destruction of the trial ground left everyone questioning what could have caused such a catastrophic event.
"Are the students okay!?" The sixth Elder yelled, his voice tinged with worry.
The Fifth Elder and Xu Zhiyuan exchanged worried glances, unable to provide an answer.
\'Fuck, I hope nothing will happen, or I might end up buried in a mountain of troubles," Xu Zhiyuan pondered silently, a feeling of unease crawling over him.

In the red world...
When Chen Tian\'s secret technique collided with the fire dragon\'s devastating breath, a tremendous explosion ensued, engulfing everything in its wake.
The air became saturated with smoke and dust, casting an eerie haze over the battlefield.
As the particles began to settle, Chen Tian\'s figure emerged, standing tall amidst the aftermath of the explosion.
His clothes were torn, and beads of sweat mixed with dirt traced paths down his grimy face. Yet, his eyes burned with an unyielding determination.
No, it wasn\'t just in his eyes; fire enveloped his body. The potent ferocity burning within him appeared to extend outward, downing every action and posture he assumed.
He looked like a fire god who had descended from the heavens, wielding the power of destruction in his very being.
The flames danced around him, casting an ethereal glow that illuminated the surrounding landscape.
Chen Tian\'s presence commanded awe and reverence, as if he were a force of nature himself.
At that moment, it was clear that he was not just a mere mortal, but fire itself.
"How did that happen?" Even Chen Tian appeared taken aback, his expression reflecting his surprise.
The dragon\'s body had already dissipated, a result of Chen Tian\'s secret technique slicing through it.
However, simultaneously, Chen Tian found himself entrapped by the dragon\'s devastating breath.
This breath wrapped him like a mantle, searing the ground beneath his feet and causing ripples through the air.
Despite the danger, Chen Tian stood tall, his eyes burning with determination.
As the flames engulfed him, Chen Tian unexpectedly experienced a surge of intense heat emanating from within his body.
Remarkably, he ceased to feel the burning sensation, and even the previously visible mark from the burn vanished.
"Wait, my cultivation has even improved!"
His cultivation, previously at the Fifth Stage of the Qi Refinement Realm, had now reached the peak of the same realm.
This indicated that he had advanced five stages in his cultivation instantaneously.
Chen Tian couldn\'t believe what was happening.
That\'s why he used Chaos Insight on himself.

"Fire Law?"
Chen Tian was baffled by how he had acquired mastery over the Fire Law.
"But I never obtained a Fire crystal; how could I have the fire law?"
"Wait, don\'t tell me!!"
Chen Tian swiftly entered his Dantian, focusing on assessing the current scenario.
As he delved deeper within, he came across a subtle, flickering flame amid the expanse of lightning energy.
The altar, marked with the word "fire," held a red crystal within its structure.
The crystal emitted a soft red glow, though not as vibrant as the lightning altar\'s.
Maybe because of difference in the mastery of both laws.
"The fire crystal—how did it get here?" Chen Tian wondered aloud.
As he continued to observe it, he could sense a strong connection between the flickering flame in his Dantian and the red crystal on the altar.
It was as if they were resonating with each other, amplifying his abilities.
Excitement filled Chen Tian\'s heart as he realized that he had gotten his hands on the fire crystal.
"Oh, that\'s why I didn\'t sense the dragon\'s breath on me," Chen Tian realized, recalling the moment when the dragon\'s breath had ceased burning him.
If he remembers correctly, the lightning crystal had the effect of making him immune to any attack weaker than the law Chen Tian has mastered.
That\'s the reason he was immune to the destructive fire of the flame dragon.
"Sigh..., I don\'t know how it got here, but since I got my hands on the fire crystal, I don\'t have any purpose being here," Chen Tian mused, feeling relief.
"But now that I possess the ability to manipulate fire, I\'ll have to put in more practice, considering I\'ve never trained with the fire element before."
The contrast between his mastery of Lightning Law and Fire Law was strikingly evident.
Chen Tian had spent years honing his lightning skills, whereas he had only recently obtained the fire crystal.
Therefore, he would require time to learn and develop proficiency with it.
He knew that to truly master the fire law, he would need to dedicate just as much time and effort to it as he had to lightning.
Chen Tian chose to exit from his dantian and reenter his body.
Having successfully ascended the 100th step, it signified his accomplishment of the trial.
Unaware of what happened outside, he opened his eyes only to widen them considerably at the scene before him.
"What in heaven name happened here?!"
