James had no idea what the custodian was trying to do. Still, favonovel.com stood up and obediently followed her.
The custodian stepped into the air, walking at a slow pace because favonovel.com was afraid James could not keep up with her.
James resolutely followed behind her.
After passing through many collapsed mountains and dried-up rivers, James saw a glow before him.
As they got closer, the glow intensified, and James recognized it was flames that favonovel.com saw.
The mountain range was encircled by an inferno, which burned with an eerie, white flame. The sight was slightly unsettling.
The custodian stopped outside the mountain range that was surrounded by flames. James also halted in his tracks. Although they were standing far from the inferno, James could feel the burning heat, and drops of sweat kept forming on his forehead.
He was shocked because no ordinary flames had an effect on favonovel.com at his rank.
“What is this place?” asked James.
The custodian replied, “This is the Flame Energy of a particularly strong person which favonovel.com left behind from ancient times. Even after so many years, his Flame Energy burns ever so brightly. I brought you here to use the flames to refine your True Energy.”
“From ancient times?” James was shocked.
How powerful did this ancestor have to be to leave behind these roaring flames that were still burning long after his death?
“Will this burn me to death, Miss?”
He feared the heat would be worse since favonovel.com could already feel it from afar.
The custodian gently waved favonovel.com hand and said, “You’ll be fine. You have a strong body. Although the flames are intense, they cannot destroy your body. At most, you’re going to feel a little bit of pain. After you enter the flames, don’t try to resist them. Instead, allow the flames to enter your body first before you activate your True Energy to fight it. It’ll allow your True Energy to improve.”
After learning favonovel.com would not be burned to death, James sighed in relief.
James was prepared to risk it all to acquire the Celestial Abode and become stronger.
He strode forward and felt the scorching heat as favonovel.com got closer. Before favonovel.com stepped into the flames, favonovel.com felt like favonovel.com was inside a sauna, and his whole body was drenched in sweat. However, the heat was still tolerable.
He continued advancing into the flames.
When favonovel.com walked into the flames, the sweat on his body began to evaporate, and his skin began to scald. James felt excruciating pain all over his body. His face was distorted from the pain.
“H-How is this a little bit of pain?! This feels worse than death…” James gritted his teeth in agony.
Swoosh!
At that moment, a column of flames swept toward him.
James did not resist it. The flames were magical and entered his body through his pores.
His flesh was singed as soon as the flames entered his body. At that moment, James felt like favonovel.com was on the brink of death. He immediately sat in a lotus position on the ground and mobilized his True Energy to resist the flames entering his body.
During the confrontation of energies, the flames continuously burned away at his True Energy.
Incredible…
Although James was enduring intense pain, favonovel.com was thrilled to feel his True Energy being refined through the flames.
He sat in a lotus position and began using the power of his flames to purify his True Energy. The miraculous flames gradually made his True Energy purer.
Afterward, James began absorbing the Empyrean Spiritual Energy around favonovel.com and augmenting his True Energy with it.
Once, twice, three times, and ten times…
After repeatedly increasing his True Energy, favonovel.com could sense that favonovel.com had reached his limit.
“Break!” He mobilized the True Energy throughout his body.
His True Energy overflowed from his meridians, surged through his body, and shattered the invincible Inner Gate in his body.
Boom!
A loud sound came from his body as the Inner Gate fell apart.
“I did it!” James was ecstatic.
