Chi chi chi chi …
The protective Sword Qi rapidly weakened, and only a thin layer remained. In the next moment, the protective Sword Qi collapsed, and the scorching magma drowned Ye Chen. Boom, suddenly, a beam of light exploded, pushing the magma away. Outside Ye Chen's body, a black shield of light reappeared. The true power of the Xuanwu Saint Armor had been activated.
"Thank goodness!"
Ye Chen heaved a sigh of relief. If the Black Tortoise Sacred Armor had not been able to unleash its true power, even if he did not die, he would have been severely injured and his foundation would have been damaged.
Following the pillar of fire, Ye Chen arrived above the crater of the volcano and rushed into the fiery clouds.
Whoosh!
At this time, the power of the fire pillar had weakened. Ye Chen easily escaped from the fire pillar and flew millions of miles away.
With a flip of his palm, the fist-sized Celestial Fiend Fire Spirit Fruit floated above his palm. A bright red flame burst forth from it, making it look more like a miniature sun than a fruit.
"A Heavenly Fiend Fire Spirit Fruit over a hundred thousand years only exists in legends. I wonder if it can help my spirit body break through from mid-Ninth Order to late-Ninth Order."
Although a Heavenly Demon Fire Spirit Fruit that was over a hundred thousand years old was rare in the world, it wasn't that easy to raise a Ninth Stage Spiritual Body. Most importantly, Ye Chen wasn't a Body Refinement Sovereign.
With a Ninth Step Spirit Body, each step was like a different world. Under normal circumstances, unless one was a Body Refinement Sovereign, it would be impossible for them to advance, and they would stay at the Early Ninth Step for the rest of their lives. There were two reasons why Ye Chen was able to raise his spirit body to the Mid Ninth Step. Firstly, he had collected enough heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Secondly, which was also the most important reason, Ye Chen had created the Immortal Sword Body and could be considered a half-baked Body Refinement Sovereign.
Therefore, to advance from the mid-Ninth Order to the late-Ninth Order was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. Only with the Sky Demon Fire Spirit Fruit that was over a hundred thousand years old would it be impossible for Ye Chen's spirit body to advance for a long time.
"Let's find a place to test it first."
After storing the Sky Demon Fire Spirit Fruit, Ye Chen's figure flashed and disappeared without a trace.
…
On a precipitous island, surging spiritual energy suddenly erupted, turning the entire area red. It was as if a volcano was erupting, venting a powerful force.
On the mountainside of the island's only mountain peak, Ye Chen sat cross-legged on the ground. The fiery Sky Demon Fire Spirit Fruit floated above his head.
The Heavenly Demon Fire Spirit Fruit that was over a hundred thousand years old had too much spiritual energy. Directly swallowing it would bring Ye Chen a lot of trouble. Ye Chen simply absorbed its energy slowly to temper his body.
Traces of fire seeped out from the surface of the Sky Demon Fire Spirit Fruit and entered through the top of Ye Chen's head. As the fire entered his body, Ye Chen's body emitted a brilliant heat. His clothes had long turned to ashes, revealing the Black Tortoise Sacred Armor tattoo on his naked body.
"So hot!"
Ye Chen felt as if he had become a furnace. The fire inside was brewing and accumulating. This feeling was very strange. Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh. The human body was too strange. Even as a Legendary Supremacy, he couldn't see through all the mysteries of the human body. Every time he thought he saw through it, it was actually just the surface layer.
Dazzling light flickered. Ye Chen's body glowed, and the surface of his skin gradually turned red, like iron being heated by fire.
This situation continued until Ye Chen's entire body seemed to have turned into a red light. His silhouette and appearance couldn't be seen at all.
One month later, the Sky Demon Fire Spirit Fruit had shrunk by more than half, and the red light man below was even more brilliant.
"Still not enough!"
The red light man raised his head and swallowed the remaining Sky Demon Fire Spirit Fruit.
Boom!
The moment he swallowed the Sky Demon Fire Spirit Fruit, the red light man's seven orifices shot out light. His eyes shot out a deep red light that pierced through the mountain peak.
"So powerful!"
Ye Chen felt that the Sky Demon Fire Spirit Fruit's power was constantly seeping into him, seeping into a depth that he had never explored before. It was transforming his body in an extremely violent manner, sublimating his physique.
Creak!
Ye Chen couldn't help but clench his fists. Space-time trembled, and cracks appeared on the island and the mountain peak. The deep red light leaked out from the cracks, and the entire island was like a glowing crystal that was about to shatter.
One week later, the island still hadn't shattered. An indescribable power was stabilizing the island.
Inside the mountain peak, the red light on Ye Chen's body gradually faded. Only his heart was still shining. Waves of surging power rippled out, causing a large number of space-time cracks to appear around Ye Chen.
After an unknown amount of time, the red light on his heart also faded, until there was only a little left.
Puff!
The little red light was extinguished.
The instant the red light was extinguished, an invisible wave of air erupted with Ye Chen at the center. The island was instantly torn apart, turning into a rain of stones.
Without using any power, Ye Chen floated above the Heavenly River. His powerful vitality field gave him the ability to fly in the Heavenly River.
"Is this the late-stage Rank 9 Spirit Body?"
Ye Chen felt that his body was filled with endless power. It was as if he would never feel tired or exhausted for the rest of his life. Inside the heart, there was an additional black hole. However, this black hole didn't absorb power. Instead, it spat out power. It had become Ye Chen's perpetual motion machine.
Inextinguishable core!
This black hole was the inextinguishable core.
A Rank 7 Spirit Body could give birth to an inextinguishable power. The inextinguishable power could heal any injury, even the origin. However, the consumption was a little high, so it wasn't obvious in the early stages. With a Rank 8 Spirit Body, there would be more and more inextinguishable power. At the Rank 9 Spirit Body, the inextinguishable power would be like a vast ocean. Apart from the origin injuries caused by saint weapons, it could heal almost any injury. But no matter what, the inextinguishable power would eventually be used up. Once it was used up, it would be extremely difficult to recover. However, it was different with an inextinguishable core. The inextinguishable core would constantly spit out inextinguishable power. Although the amount it spat out wasn't much, it had the advantage of being able to last for a long time. As time passed, the inextinguishable power would accumulate.
Apart from that, people with an inextinguishable core were extremely difficult to kill. With the same strength, people with an inextinguishable core were ten times harder to kill.
"I wonder if I can cultivate the Immortal Sword Body to the seventeenth level!"
Ye Chen sat cross-legged in the void. With a wave of his palm, a large number of Rank 3 and 4 supreme swords flew out. Activating the Immortal Sword Body, Ye Chen started to absorb the essence of the supreme swords.
A dense sword light bloomed as the sixteen sword patterns on Ye Chen's body started to wander. The sixteenth sword pattern turned from a shallow one to a very deep one, which was above the other fifteen sword patterns. However, the seventeenth sword pattern still hadn't appeared. At this moment, the Immortal Sword Body should be at the peak of the sixteenth level.
Letting out a breath of metal air, Ye Chen shook his head. The seventeenth level wasn't that easy to break through. Thinking about it, it made sense. If the sixteenth level could block the attack of a Demigod, then wouldn't the seventeenth level be able to ignore the attack of a Demigod?
Not going to the Doomsday Volcano again, the Sky Demon Fire Spirit Fruit had made Ye Chen's body resistant. If he took a second one, the effect would be greatly reduced. Moreover, he might not be able to beat that red snake and the Volcano King, especially that red snake.
