King of Creation Chapter 1701: 1686: Three Absolute Poison Dragon Flames

Seeing Hall Master Mu Xu appearing as if Ye Zhen could name his own price, Ye Zhen ultimately decided not to immediately strike a deal.

It wasn’t that Ye Zhen didn’t want to take advantage of Mu Xu, who seemed like a plump sheep; after all, Qingli Peak had initially broken their promise. Now, requiring the latter part of the Yimu Spiritual Communication Technique, they were compelled to seek assistance. It appeared that as long as Ye Zhen's price wasn’t excessively unreasonable, Mu Xu would agree.

However, the predicament was that the innate spiritual object Ye Zhen most urgently needed to replenish his origin power was something Qingli Peak couldn't offer. Moreover, Ye Zhen himself wasn't entirely certain of his immediate greatest need.

Cultivation resources?

Spirit stones for pills?

Or perhaps materials for artifact refinement or acquired spiritual treasures?

Especially after extracting a substantial sum from the Heavenly Temple and acquiring a vast quantity of cultivation resources and rare materials, Ye Zhen felt that proceeding with this transaction right away would be imprudent.

The Yimu Spiritual Communication Technique, having already been given to the Ancestor God Temple by Ye Zhen, would eventually have to be provided by the Qingli Peak Heavenly Temple.

Failing that, under pressure, who knew what measures Qingli Peak might resort to.

Furthermore, it was foreseeable that following the incident where the branch temple was annihilated, Ye Zhen, despite cleverly clearing his name through various stratagems,

would henceforth find his relationship with the Heavenly Temple irreconcilably hostile, akin to water and fire.

And the Heavenly Temple stood as one of the primary powers that governed the world's top-tier resources.

To squander this hard-won opportunity for a transaction with Qingli Peak, where Ye Zhen could dictate the terms, would truly be a colossal waste.

Requesting spirit stones or psychic spirit pills, which also fall under cultivation resources, would, in reality, be a waste.

In the spirit of "applying the best steel to the sharpest edge," Ye Zhen believed it would be wiser to postpone this transaction with Qingli Peak.

Ye Zhen also desired to ascertain precisely what he lacked.

"Hall Master Mu, you understand, I've recently obtained an immense quantity of cultivation resources, so I'm uncertain of my needs at this very moment.

Might I ponder further before declaring my trading conditions?" This was Ye Zhen's considered reply.

"Um..." Mu Xu hesitated, "You realize the five-year deadline is drawing near, and the Peak Master might be unable to extend the delay much longer."

"How about in half a year?" Ye Zhen proposed.

"Half a year, then it's settled!"

After a firm handshake with Ye Zhen, Mu Xu departed with refined grace.

A span of half a year might seem insignificant to others, perhaps not even consuming one or two high-grade thought spirit pills.

However, for Ye Zhen, who had just unsealed the fifth stage of the Mirage Dragon Pearl's spatial seal, this half-year represented six years of cultivation time.

The considerable duration of six years would be ample for Ye Zhen and his companions to achieve significant breakthroughs in their cultivation.

By then, Ye Zhen should possess a clear understanding of his most pressing needs.

...

"Achou, the Innate Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire Spirit that I acquired from the ancient teleportation formation space at the depths of the Outer Domain Dead Sea on the True Profound Continent does not align with the attributes of the Green Smoke Suanni Poison Dragon Pearl.

Even if forcibly integrated, the Innate Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire Spirit is unlikely to become the artifact spirit of this Poison Dragon Pearl, correct?"

This question had occupied Ye Zhen's thoughts ever since Achou had advised him against acting rashly and to accept the Poison Dragon Pearl.

Nevertheless, aware that the Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit, Achou, would not bring him harm, Ye Zhen opted to wait until this moment to inquire.

"My Lord Ye, were it an ordinary Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire Spirit, it would indeed be incapable of subduing the poison flames within the Poison Dragon Pearl. But have you overlooked the word 'innate'!"

"The Innate Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire Spirit not only possesses spiritual wisdom dozens of times greater than common fire spirits but, more crucially, this type of innate fire spirit is also malleable," Achou elucidated.

"Malleable?"

"You imply it can learn to command the poison flames residing within the Poison Dragon Pearl?"

"Learn?" Achou emitted a soft chuckle. "I must say, Lord Ye, doesn't it strike you as a tremendous waste to have the Innate Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire Spirit forgo the utilization of its inherent flame characteristics and instead learn to control those poison flames?"

Achou's subtle mockery caused Ye Zhen's expression to abruptly darken. "Speak plainly if you have something to say, or you shall face my Heavenly Thunder of Fright greeting."

Achou lazily rolled his eyes. "There's no sport in that; I was merely attempting to guide you step by step..."

“Cultivation, what I'm talking about is for the Innate Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire Spirit to cultivate the poison flames. No blasting, no blasting…” Observing Ye Zhe reveal the Heavenly Thunder of Fright, the Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Achou immediately surrendered.

“My Lord Ye, just imagine combining the characteristics of the Innate Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire Spirit with the Poison Dragon Flame Light, what would that create….”

Ye Zhen’s eyes froze at this very thought.

The contemplation alone sent a chill down his spine!

The characteristics of the Innate Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire Spirit are akin to bone-attached maggots, impossible to extinguish with water, unrelenting in the fiercest wind, using all flesh and bones as its fuel. Once it attaches itself to a body, unless the affected part is amputated with utmost speed, it becomes nearly impossible to extinguish; truly terrifying indeed.

However, while the attributes of the Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire may be terrifying, the flame power itself is quite ordinary.

To incinerate a martial artist in the Dark Palace Realm, it might take over an hour of burning.

Within such a prolonged duration, the opponent possesses ample means to extinguish the flames.

But what if the terrifying characteristics of the Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire were to be infused into the immensely powerful Poison Dragon Flame Light? How dreadful would that become?

The poison flames cultivated by the Green Smoke Suanni Beast are actually a Three Absolute Poison Dragon Flame, derived from the Dragon Breath of the Ancient Dragon Clan’s lineage.

Soul Severance, Severed Body, Spirit Severance.

Of course, when cultivators name their formidable cultivation techniques, they tend to employ a degree of exaggeration.

Complete soul severance, body severance, and spirit severance are practically impossible feats, yet these Three Absolute Poison Dragon Flames can effortlessly scorch the divine soul power, the physical dao body, and the various spiritual powers of a martial artist.

The grade of these Three Absolute Poison Dragon Flames is two tiers superior to Ye Zhen’s current Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire, classifying them as a mid-grade true fire.

Their power even surpasses the renowned Samadhi Fire, far exceeding that of the Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire.

If the characteristics of the Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire were to be applied to the Three Absolute Poison Dragon Flames, the sheer terror it would unleash….

On a closer, more personal level, simply integrating the characteristics of Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire into Ye Zhen’s current Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire, further amplified by Ye Zhen’s Xuan Fire Drill, would be sufficient to incapacitate even a Peak of Ninth Stage Realm King Realm expert with a single strike.

But then there’s the matter of difficulty…

“However, the significant issue is that the Innate Phosphorus Fire Spirit lacks a physical form, how can it possibly cultivate? Furthermore, these Three Absolute Poison Dragon Flames are an inherited cultivation technique of the dragon clan; how could the Innate Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire Spirit possibly cultivate them?” Ye Zhen inquired.

“For ordinary individuals, this is indeed an impossible task. But my Lord Ye, have you perhaps forgotten that I hail from the Ancient Mirage Dragon lineage, essentially the primordial ancestor of the Green Smoke Suanni? With the Innate Bone-attached Phosphorus Fire Spirit, all you need to provide is some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

I might just be capable of forging an acquired spirit treasure possessing power that rivals a low-grade innate spiritual treasure for you.”

“Then, for certain, that Baili Fei, who deceived you, will bitterly regret his actions,” Achou from the Mirage Dragon uttered with a cold sneer.

“Truly?”

Ye Zhen’s eyes widened in astonishment; an acquired spirit treasure with power nearing that of an innate spiritual treasure? How many truly innate spiritual treasures exist in this world?

“Truly!”

The face of the Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Achou displayed not the slightest hint of jest.
