Chapter 196: New Stalagmite Fire
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Su gritted her teeth. She used her spiritual energy to tightly wrap around the medicinal effects of the Blazing Flame Pill. Li Ming’s spiritual energy needed to drill in to have more contact with the medicinal effects.
Therefore, she knew Li Ming’s spiritual energy changes like the back of her hand.
Although she knew it very well, she still couldn’t believe it.
Li Ming was able to control dozens of spiritual energy streams with ease. This was clearly not the first time he had encountered such a thing.
This was the first time she had seen Li Ming’s extremely strange refining method, and she could not help but praise Li Ming’s train of thought. Dividing the medicinal strength into several portions and then refining it would greatly increase the efficiency of the refinement.
She was surprised to find that the spiritual energy was as sharp as a knife. Although they did not have much strength, they could easily cut the medicinal power into pieces.
Her cultivation was much higher than Li Ming’s, and her horizons were much higher. Of course, she knew how to do this.
As long as he found the weakest part of the medicinal effect, it would have such an effect.
But the problem was, how could Li Ming be so fast and so accurate to find the place where the medicinal effect was the weakest? She used her spiritual energy to wrap the pill, but she knew that she could not do this.
Not to mention her, even her Senior Brother He Fang would not be able to do this!
Li Ming’s secret was probably here!
Thinking of this, the shock in Su Xin’s heart gradually faded. As the saying goes, everyone has their strengths. For Li Ming to be able to display his strength at a sword-testing conference, how could he not have something unique about him? She was a little too surprised.
She regained her composure and started to admire Li Ming’s “performance.”
Li Ming’s exquisite control of spiritual energy could be called a “performance.”
Dozens of spiritual energy were easily controlled by him. The cooperation between them was like a thousand orderly troops. The violent and overbearing effect of the pill was like a ferocious beast that was easily torn apart.
This series of operations was fast, accurate, clean, and without the slightest hesitation.
Watching them perform was also a pleasing thing to the eye.
However, this also exposed Li Ming’s lack of spiritual energy. Such precise control might be useful in formations, but it wasn’t very useful in sword arts.
Soon, Su made her own judgment.
In her opinion, although Li Ming was very strong, his weakness was also very obvious. In other words, Li Ming’s strength could only be fully displayed in a special environment.
She thought back to the sword-testing conference. The large array that Li Ming had set up had left her dumbfounded. Didn’t it create an environment for her to use it?
She couldn’t help but shake her head. Li Ming’s strength was just a fake strength to her. There were too many restrictions.
Sword cultivation was a great journey. No matter what the situation was, one could firmly grasp their own life in their hands! At the thought of this, she could not help but feel more and more excited about the sword embryo she was going to forge.
After six hours, Li Ming swallowed the last Blazing Flame Pill and refined it into a wisp of lava flame.
The thirty-sixth magma earth fire merged into it, and the stalagmite fire that had been silent for a long time finally had a world-shaking change!
The stalagmite fire suddenly grew bigger and its momentum increased greatly.
Li Ming’s heart tightened. This was the most important moment.
The stalagmite fire was expanding crazily like a ferocious monster. Its cold and violent aura spread in all directions. Even Li Ming’s meridians were affected as if they were being pricked by needles.
Su immediately withdrew her spiritual energy. At this time, her spiritual energy was of no use to Li Ming and would only become a burden to him.
She opened her eyes and saw Li Ming shivering in front of her. A thin layer of frost floated on his forehead.
What terrifying cold flames!
Su couldn’t help but be shocked. Her gaze towards Li Ming was filled with anxiety. If the fusion failed this time, then she could forget about her sword embryo.
Li Ming’s heart was also in his throat. He had already done everything he could. Next, he could only rely on God’s arrangements.
As time passed, the raging stalagmite fire gradually calmed down, and the expanding flames also slowly shrank, finally stopping.
The newly formed stalagmite fire was formed!
The current stalagmite fire was no longer the same as before.
First of all, its body was more than three times larger than before, and in terms of structure, it had undergone earth-shattering changes. Before this, it was white.
However, the current stalagmite fire had three layers.
The outermost layer was still a layer of milky white flames, while the middle layer was a layer of dark red flames. Although it was just a wisp, it was easily distinguished. The three layers of flames were different.
The white one was stalagmite fire, the dark red one was the magma earth fire from refining the Blazing Flame Pill, and in the center was a ball of pitch-black flame. What was that?
Li Ming was interested.
After taking a closer look, he finally understood. This wisp of black flame was the poison he had been contaminated with when he was refining the ink-black lotus seed! If not for the change just now, he would not have noticed it.
This seed contained such a lethal poison. What was even more unbelievable was that this poison could turn into fire!
The new flame was very different from the previous flame. His control over it was also very different.
The Yin energy was greatly reduced, and the transformation of ice and fire became more convenient. However, what was the use of that wisp of black flame in the deepest part? This made Li Ming puzzled.
Among the three layers of flames, stalagmite tire was the lowest level, followed by the magma earth fire, and the highest level was the black flame that Li Ming had no idea what it was. On second thought, Li Ming felt relieved.
The flames of the stalagmite fire were only second-grade.
He wasn’t in a hurry but was constantly exploring. This was a completely different type of flame. Even the Yin Fire Bead Chapter didn’t have any records of it.
As such, Li Ming needed to feel it himself.
Immersed in the process of exploring the new flame, Li Ming did not know how long had passed.
Su was relieved when she realized that the ice on Li Ming’s body had disappeared. Seeing that Li Ming seemed to have entered a meditative state, she did not urge him. She simply sat cross-legged at the side and began to recover her spiritual energy.
Anyway, she had already waited for so long. A few days was not a big deal.
Li Ming sat like this for three days without moving.
When he opened his eyes again, other than exhaustion, there was more excitement in his eyes.
Su decided in her heart.
Another day passed, and Li Ming’s body had recovered to its peak. He was ready to start refining the sword embryo.
Li Ming did not let Su watch from the side. If someone saw it, he was afraid that he would be disturbed. He came to a quiet room. In the quiet room, all the materials and some spirit stones had been prepared so that he could use them to recover his spiritual energy.
Li Ming took the spirit stones with a smile. From this moment on, he would stay in this cultivation room until the refinement was completed. Su held her sword and stood guard at the door..
