177: The Ten Origin Fires

“Good stuff?”

Zhang Fan’s heart stirred, and he asked, “Senior Mao Du, are these two things some kind of treasure?”

Mao Du lazily said, “The information left on this beast hide is very simple!”

“Before Zhurong left Earth, he didn’t know how long it would be until he could return, so he left behind the ‘Chaos True Fire’ he cultivated, to benefit future generations!”

“The beast hide says!”

“As long as they are a descendant of Zhurong and become a Starry Sky Life, they will follow their bloodline sensing to this place and open the palace!”

“Eventually, they will obtain the ‘Chaos True Fire’ left behind by Zhurong!”

“Chaos True Fire?”

Zhang Fan was a bit surprised: “Is this a cultivation technique created by Zhurong?”

“Not so!”

Mao Du shook his head and said, “‘Chaos True Fire’ is one of the Virtual Universe Company’s most precious supreme inheritances!”

“Cultivating this technique can transform one’s own flames into the universe’s supreme flame—Chaos True Fire!”

“Chaos True Fire is the mother of all fires and the source of all flames!”

“It can incinerate all matter and all energy in the world!”

“If one’s cultivation is sufficient, it could even incinerate the entire universe!”

“Its power is unparalleled!”

“Therefore, this cultivation technique is one of the supreme fire-element inheritances!”

“I guess!”

Mao Du lazily said, “After Zhurong joined the Virtual Universe Company, he was bestowed with this cultivation technique!”

“And before he left Earth, he wanted to do something for his descendants, so he left this ‘Chaos True Fire’ behind!”

Zhang Fan felt his blood surge, incredibly excited: “Senior Mao Du, can I cultivate this technique?”

This was the most crucial part!

If he couldn’t cultivate it, then even if the ‘Chaos True Fire’ was incredibly powerful, it would be useless to him!

“You?”

Mao Du lazily said, “Not only can you cultivate it, but I think there’s no one in this universe more suitable to cultivate it than you!”

“Really?”

Zhang Fan was overjoyed.

“Would I lie to you?”

Mao Du snorted lightly: “The essence of ‘Chaos True Fire’ cultivation is to use one’s own flames to devour other flames, allowing one’s own flames to evolve!”

“So, as long as one possesses a fire-element Talent Divine Power, they can cultivate it!”

“And you!”

Mao Du lazily said, “Not only do you possess a fire-element Talent Divine Power, but you can also possess more fire-element Divine Powers!”

“Tell me… are you suitable to cultivate ‘Chaos True Fire’?”

Zhang Fan nodded repeatedly: “Listening to Senior Mao Du, I’ve gained sudden enlightenment!”

He possessed Sun True Fire and Nine Netherworld Fire, two fire-element Talent Divine Powers, so he indeed had the qualifications to cultivate Chaos True Fire!

Furthermore, he could obtain even more fire-element Talent Divine Powers!

Mao Du was very right; there truly was no one in this world more suitable to cultivate ‘Chaos True Fire’ than him!

Zhang Fan was very excited, pointing at the colorful stone next to the beast hide and saying, “Senior, is this a memory crystal?”

“That’s right!”

Mao Du said, “It records the ‘Chaos True Fire’ in detail!”

Zhang Fan nodded repeatedly, picked up the memory crystal, and pressed it against his forehead.

A large surge of information poured into his mind, and Zhang Fan closed his eyes, rapidly receiving it.

After a long while.

Reception complete!

“It really is ‘Chaos True Fire’!” Zhang Fan was very excited.

This cultivation technique was divided into ten layers; each time one devoured a type of origin fire, they could advance one layer.

The cultivation technique meticulously recorded the ten great origin fires of the universe!

They were: Three Ture Fire, Southern Bright Fire, Sun True Fire, Six Dings Divine Fire, Taiyin True Fire, Ziwei Heavenly Fire, Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire, Red Lotus Karma Fire, Nirvana Divine Fire, and Nine Netherworld Fire.

“How strange!”

Zhang Fan wondered, “Senior Mao Du, it seems like all ten great origin fires of the universe are present on our Earth?”

According to the records of ‘Chaos True Fire,’ the ten great origin fires of the universe were widely distributed throughout the universe!

To cultivate ‘Chaos True Fire,’ one had to travel all over the universe to find them!

But what was strange was that.

All ten of these origin fires could be found on Earth!

Some belonged to Titan Warriors, and some belonged to Titan Beasts.

In short.

They could all be found on Earth!

This was too strange!

“Nothing strange about it!”

Mao Du said indifferently, “Earth itself is not an ordinary planet!”

Zhang Fan was startled: “Not an ordinary planet? What do you mean?”

Mao Du lazily said, “You’ll know this later!”

Alright, Mao Du was unwilling to say more, so Zhang Fan couldn’t press him.

After thoroughly checking the palace again and confirming there was nothing else of value, he left.

Arriving outside the palace, he looked at the bones scattered everywhere; on some of the bones, traces of divine spark could even be seen.

Zhang Fan split into hundreds of Shadow Clones to collect all the divine sparks.

Half an hour later, Zhang Fan had 14 more Complete Divine Sparks in his hand!

All of them were Complete Divine Sparks!

Adding the 18 on that necklace, the total was 32!

In other words.

Zhang Fan’s trip to Shanxi yielded him 32 Complete Divine Sparks!

“32 Complete Divine Sparks represent 32 deities!”

Zhang Fan couldn’t help but exclaim, “To what extent was the Earth Civilization developed in ancient times?”

On present-day Earth, in the 50 years since the Great Cataclysm, there hadn’t been a single true demigod or deity!

All demigods were formed by fusing divine sparks, and the only deity, Grandpa Hua, was also formed by fusing a divine spark.

It simply couldn’t compare to the Earth Civilization of ancient times!

“I said, you Earthlings are not ordinary!”

Mao Du said indifferently, “As long as you are given a suitable cultivation environment and enough time, you will achieve great things!”

“Limited by resources, true gods and Stellar Gods might be difficult, but demigods and deities are very easy!”

“In your Earthling words, this is called having good genes!”

“…”

After leaving Zhurong Shrine, Zhang Fan was not in a hurry to return to Chang’an.

After what happened with Teacher Jiang, Zhang Fan really didn’t know how to face her and Da Mimi, so he decided to hide for a while!

Zhang Fan entered the second layer of Fuxi Shrine to cultivate ‘Chaos True Fire’!

The cultivation of this technique was very simple: first, select a flame as one’s life-bound divine fire, and then devour other flames.

Zhang Fan possessed two origin fires: Sun True Fire and Nine Netherworld Fire.

After some consideration, Zhang Fan decided to choose Nine Netherworld Fire as his life-bound divine fire to devour Sun True Fire!

It sounded simple.

It wasn’t difficult to do.

Because Zhang Fan could control both flames simultaneously, using one flame to devour the other was indeed not very difficult!

Zhang Fan sat cross-legged, holding Sun True Fire in one hand and Nine Netherworld Fire in the other.

Then, he circulated the ‘Chaos True Fire’ method, and the dark Nine Netherworld Fire immediately became extremely devouring.

When Sun True Fire approached, Nine Netherworld Fire immediately began to devour it.

This devouring was somewhat similar to two flames mixing.

As the devouring continued, the originally dark Nine Netherworld Fire immediately took on a hint of gold.

After the devouring ended, both Sun True Fire and Nine Netherworld Fire disappeared, replaced by a brand new flame.

Black with gold!

Gold with black!

“The first layer of ‘Chaos True Fire’ was cultivated just like that?”

Zhang Fan felt somewhat dreamlike.

Wasn’t ‘Chaos True Fire’ a supreme inheritance of the Virtual Universe Company?

He had cultivated it already?

Wasn’t it too simple?

Subsequently.

Zhang Fan went outside to find some Titan Beasts to test the new flame.

He finally discovered that:

The new flame not only possessed the soul-burning characteristic of Nine Netherworld Fire but also had the property of Sun True Fire, which incinerates everything!

Most importantly.

Under mutual enhancement, both of these characteristics were greatly strengthened!

Soul burning was more rapid!

Incinerating everything was more domineering!

Zhang Fan didn’t feel surprised.

Devouring other cosmic origin fires was not simply a fusion of flames, but rather a mutual enhancement, where 1+1 > 2!

Therefore, the characteristics possessed by both flames would be enhanced!

“Devouring one Sun True Fire increased its power so much!”

Zhang Fan’s eyes gleamed: “What about devouring more flames?”

Zhang Fan couldn’t imagine how powerful he would become when he cultivated the ninth layer of ‘Chaos True Fire’ and truly formed Chaos True Fire!

Thinking of this, Zhang Fan’s heart burned with eagerness, and he exited Fuxi Shrine to begin searching for new origin fires.

Aside from Nine Netherworld Fire and Sun True Fire, the other eight great cosmic origin fires were all present on Earth!

Zhang Fan sat on a volcano and began searching online with his phone.

“Three Ture Fire is on the Monster Emperor—Inferno Divine Ox!”

“Southern Bright Fire is on a girl named Zhu Huan in BJ!”

“Six Dings Divine Fire is on the Monster Emperor—Golden Horned Beast!”

“Taiyin True Fire is on the female demigod in Hefei—Liu Piao!”

“Ziwei Heavenly Fire is on the national general—Demigod Xu Zhen!”

“Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire is on the demigod in Zhengzhou—Yang Ying!”

“Red Lotus Karma Fire is on the demigod beast—Red Lotus Fire Lion!”

“Nirvana Divine Fire is on the demigod in Nanning—Xiang Yunyun!”

Looking at the information searched online, Zhang Fan felt a massive headache.

Except for Southern Bright Fire.

The other seven types of origin fires were either in the hands of demigods or on Monster Emperors or demigod beasts.

However, neither demigods nor Monster Emperors or demigod beasts were opponents that the current Zhang Fan could contend with!

“Direct confrontation is impossible; it seems I need to find a way to outsmart them!”

Zhang Fan stroked his chin, pondered for a few seconds, and then contacted Grandpa Hua.

“Xiao Fan, do you need something from me?”

Grandpa Hua chuckled.

“Grandpa Hua, I want to ask you to help me get a few blood samples!”

Zhang Fan went straight to the point.

Hua Yunzhang raised an eyebrow slightly, surprised: “The blood you want involves demigods?”

With Zhang Fan’s current strength and status, as long as it didn’t involve demigods, he could handle it completely himself!

“Yes!”

Zhang Fan nodded.

“Tell me about it!”

Zhang Fan immediately listed the 7 demigods, Monster Emperors, and demigod beasts involved with the seven great origin fires.

Hua Yunzhang listened to each one, then exclaimed in surprise, “They are all owners of fire-element Divine Powers, Xiao Fan, what do you need so many fire-element transformations for?”

Zhang Fan explained the matter of cultivating ‘Chaos True Fire’.

Given his relationship with Hua Yunzhang, these things could be told!

“So that’s how it is!”

Hua Yunzhang nodded repeatedly, patted his chest, and said, “Don’t worry! Give me three days, and I’ll get it done for you!”

From Hua Yunzhang’s perspective, he naturally hoped Zhang Fan would be as excellent as possible!

“Thank you, Grandpa Hua!”

Zhang Fan was overjoyed.

“No need to be polite with me!”

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Fan breathed a sigh of relief; with Grandpa Hua stepping in, he believed the problem shouldn’t be too big.

“As for Zhu Huan, the girl with Southern Bright Fire, I’ll have to handle her myself!”

PS: I went to catch snails in the river two days ago and got caught in the rain. I’ve had a cold for the past two days and my whole body aches badly.

It’s been rainy recently, everyone should pay attention to staying warm and not catching a cold!
