Not long after, Cheng Xuchun and the two elders of Tie Xu Lu came to the peak to congratulate Yanxu Yang.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother Yan, for your great improvement!"
"Congratulations, Senior Brother Yan, I didn't expect you to be ahead of me so soon! I got a second level immortal fire and thought I would advance faster than you, but I'm still lagging behind. "
Yanxu Yang laughed, "After four thousand years of cultivation, I've finally advanced to the advanced stage of Void Step! My life is not in vain! "
"Yes, it's not easy! Thinking about all these years, I've been struggling every day, improving little by little, and finally reaching this stage. Just a little more and I'll be able to see the door of Unification of Dao. Once I cross it, I'll have a lifespan of a hundred thousand years! "
"Senior Brother Yan, this is great! Not only did you advance to the advanced stage of Void Step, Senior Brother Cheng also got a third level immortal fire. Our Four Divine Sect is going to hold our heads high! "
"Oh? Senior Brother Cheng got a third level immortal fire? Can we have another Rite of Fire? Advance to the fourth or fifth level? "
Cheng Xuchun smiled, "There aren't many fire seeds left in the sect. We need to leave some for Junior Brother Yan and the cultivators below. These fire seeds were collected by everyone after years of hard work, we can't let one person use them all. "
Tie Xu Lu thought nothing of it, "If it's all used up, we can just collect more. With the third level spiritual fire, senior brother might be able to jump into the Sacred Fire Lake. You don't have to go deep into the lake, you can even collect spiritual fire from the side. There are so many spiritual fires down there, you can just reach out and grab them? "
Cheng Xuchun looked down the mountain and smiled, "Don't be in a hurry to collect spiritual fire. I'm thinking of a counterattack to clear out all the enemies around us. What do you think, Junior Brothers? "
Yanxu Yang asked, "I've been studying the celestial formation and don't know what's going on around us. Didn't the enemies behave themselves a few days ago? Could it be that they're surrounding us again? "
"Yes, they're even more aggressive this time. Almost all the True Lords of Void Step have been mobilized. Wu Laidong originally had ten Void Step experts under him, but two of them had died. Among the remaining eight, other than the two who did not come, the other six had come. Qiu San Shan has twelve Void Step experts under him, and this time, he sent six. "
Qin Di was surprised to hear this. He didn't expect the other party to send so many people.
Cheng Xu Chun continued, "These people are attacking Morning Sun Peak from the east and north. The ones attacking from the north are Wu Lai Dong's men, while the ones attacking from the east are Qiu San Shan's men. I'm going to the east to defend against the enemy. How about the two of you go to the north? "
Yan Xu Yang and Tie Xu Lu answered in a deep voice, "Yes, Senior Martial Brother!"
Cheng Xuchun glanced at Qin Di and said, "As for Young Friend Qin, you don't have to go out this time. You were in the limelight earlier, so these people were paying attention to you! Therefore, it is too risky for you to make a move now. You might as well go into closed-door cultivation first. You can go anywhere in the entire Morning Sun Peak. When the opportunity comes, it won't be too late to go out and fight. "
Qin Di nodded and said, "Thank you for your advice, Sect Master."
He thought to himself, "After all, my skills are still shallow. I'm strong in offense but weak in defense. I'm relying on the Vast Sea Boat to win from both sides. If I stand still and get slapped by the other party, I'll be doomed eternally. I can only fight as a guerrilla, and I'm not suitable for positional warfare. I can barely handle a beginner Void Step expert. Now that there are more than ten Void Step experts, I can't fight this battle anymore! "
Therefore, Qin Di returned to his residence, entered the cave, and started another Rite of Fire.
When Cheng Xu Chun obtained the third level immortal fire, he felt a strong sense of urgency. He felt that he should jump into the Sacred Fire Lake and swim to the Sacred Mountain on the other side. If he didn't take action now, he might lose the opportunity.
But before he could turn this idea into reality, he had to make some preparations. First, he had to perform another Rite of Fire.
Qin Di had close to four thousand spiritual fires. He took out half of them, a total of two thousand. Then, he picked out the fourth level Immortal Heart Moon Fire and the third level Setting Sun Twilight Fire from the ten immortal fires and placed them on the altar to nurture. As for the remaining eight immortal fires, including the second level Yin Wind Fire, Red Lotus Fire, and four first level immortal fires, he didn't place them on the altar.
Since it was a tripartite confrontation, he had to raise the level of the Immortal Heart Moon Fire and the Setting Sun Twilight Fire first.
The Rite of Fire officially began.
Qin Di sat in front of the altar, took out the immortal fire fan, and fanned it leisurely.
The huge white tiger laid on the ground and let out a light roar, which meant, "Master, I can help you fan the fire!"
Qin Di gently stroked the white tiger's head and said, "Your skills are not enough. Wait until you reach the seventh level."
The white tiger roared again and lowered its head.
Because of the power of the immortal fire fan, the effect of the Rite of Fire was even more obvious. After forty-nine days, the two thousand spiritual fires on the altar had almost completely fused together. There were only six heaven upper grade spiritual fires, two first level immortal fires, the fifth level Setting Sun Twilight Fire, and the sixth level Immortal Heart Moon Fire!
Among them, the Immortal Heart Moon Fire had risen to the sixth level, so it couldn't help but rise up. If it wasn't in the grotto-heaven, it would have ascended to the Spiritual Realm!
Qin Di hurriedly took out the Soul Controlling Talisman and added a layer of restriction on it before swallowing it back into his stomach.
He was very satisfied with the results of this Rite of Fire. It seemed that throwing in two thousand spiritual fires at the Rite of Fire provided a limited amount of fire-type spiritual energy. If he used it to upgrade two immortal fires, there might be a jump. If he threw in six or seven immortal fires at once like before, the result would only be one level.
He still had two thousand spiritual fires. After thinking for a while, he decided to strike while the iron was hot and perform another Rite of Fire.
This time, he put the Yin Wind Fire, the Red Lotus Fire, and the six first level immortal fires that he had obtained in succession on the altar. At the same time, he put the remaining two thousand spiritual fires in one go. He only kept two kinds of spiritual fires of each level in case he needed to fuse them in the future.
He also didn't know what would happen if he threw in so many immortal fires at once, because immortal fires could devour each other.
Sure enough, after another forty-nine days, the spiritual fires on the altar had fused more thoroughly! Not only were the two thousand spiritual fires almost all used up, even the number of immortal fires had decreased by two!
In the end, there were only three heaven upper-grade immortal fires, two first level immortal fires, one second level immortal fire, one third level immortal fire, and the fourth level Yin Wind Fire and Red Lotus Fire left on the altar. There were only six immortal fires left.
Qin Di communicated with the newly born third level Immortal Fire and named it "Cold Ash Death Fire". This kind of fire looked like it didn't have any raging flames and didn't have any bright flames. However, it seemed cold but was actually hot. It could burn people to death unknowingly. Its killing power wasn't below the fourth level Yin Wind Fire.
As for the new second level immortal fire, it was named Smooth Jade Fire. Jade becomes smoother through fire, and lotus is always dry through water. This immortal fire was most suitable for calcining oneself, and it was also suitable for roasting spiritual treasures and artifacts. It was much gentler than the God Li Zun Fire.
The remaining two immortal fires didn't have names yet.
At this point, Qin Di had a total of nine immortal fires. The sixth level Immortal Heart Moon Fire, the fifth level Setting Sun Twilight Fire and God Li Zun Fire, the fourth level Yin Wind Fire and Red Lotus Fire, the third level Cold Gray Death Fire, the second level Smooth Jade Fire, and two nameless first level immortal fires.
He covered all nine immortal fires on the surface of his body, forming nine thick layers of protection. He felt that it wouldn't be too dangerous to jump into the Holy Fire Lake.
However, he did not stop there. He used the power of his consciousness to carve fire-resistant immortal formations on his muscles and bones. He carved the immortal formations into his five viscera palaces, his Zifu World, and even his skull. This way, even if the protection of the nine immortal flames failed, he would still be able to preserve his five viscera palaces, Zifu World, and Niwan Palace. He had mastered the art of reviving withered wood. As long as the key parts were still there, he could revive from the ashes. Just like the 73 Dayan said, "Wildfire can't burn, it can grow again with the spring wind!"
By the time everything was ready, another half a year had passed.
Qin Di first went to the battlefield to take a look. He found that the enemy forces were very strong. There were twelve Void Step cultivators attacking from the front, and there were also the Autumn and Winter Ancestor at the back. Because of this, even though the three Morning Sun Peak Ancestor's cultivation had greatly improved, they still couldn't drive the enemy away. Instead, they relied on the formations to create a stalemate. Some attacked, some defended, some retreated, and some advanced. They were no longer at a disadvantage like before.
Qin Di thought to himself, "If there is no external change, I don't know how many years this battle will last."
Under such a large number of enemies, he, a small Golden Core Enlightened Master, didn't dare to rush to the front.
It was important for people to know their own limits and admit that they were not strong enough. Only then could they live longer.
