Chapter 284: Fallen Sun

Lu Zheng was shocked by the sight before him. A great mass of boiling flames laid on the ground before him blotting out the sky. The mass of boiling flames was so dense and hot that Lu Zheng could only see white when he gazed at it.

From the shape of the mass, Lu Zheng could tell that it was a sun.

The sun writhed with heat that seared even the space around it. Large eruptions of fire shot from it and boiled the ground around it. Lu Zheng could sense that the flames of the sun were strong enough to turn the greatest ice glaciers into puddles of lava.

What stunned Lu Zheng the most was that he could sense the Vermillion Sacred Prism at the centre of the great star.

The other martial practitioners arrived and stayed many hundreds of metres away from Lu Zheng. They did not dare approach the sun. Even the fire path experts of Yi Clan could only stay as close as three hundred metres to the sun.

They did not have the Vermillion Bird Race bloodline and could not tolerate great levels of heat without melting into pools of lava. They were shocked to see Lu Zheng standing so close to the sun.

"What is going on?" An Yin shouted as he spoke to Lu Zheng. The intensity of the fires from the sun was so great that his words were burnt away.

Still, Lu Zheng had great perception. He could hear An Yin well enough.

"This is a fallen sun. My artifact sensed strong fire path cultivation materials within it and flew into it" Lu Zheng transmitted his voice to the others. "This is most likely the incomplete inheritance"

The rest nodded to Lu Zheng's words. If it was like this then the fire path incomplete inheritance was different from the strength path incomplete inheritance. One could only claim it by their own methods.

The fire path Yi clansmen shook their heads. Even from this distance, their lungs felt like they would burn up and their skin sizzled and charred. If they went any further, their bodies would combust spontaneously into strong flames.

Lu Zheng took a step forward and his feet seared into a crimson colour. The pain caused him to withdraw at once.

~So it is impossible~

He had strong willpower and he could endure the pain of being burnt alive but if his body could not endure it, he would only die a pitiful death.

Lu Zheng knew that the Vermillion Sacred Prism was forged by the artificers of the Vermillion Bird Race. It could endure great levels of fire. It was likely that it was already consuming the rank nine Profound Flame Crystal in the core of the fallen sun.

This fire path inheritance would be taken by the Vermillion Sacred Prism.

Lu Zheng did not wish to leave empty handed. He sat on the hot ground and crossed his legs. The strong fire Qi that erupted from the fallen sun flowed into his meridians and blood vessels.

The fire Qi was extremely strong. Lu Zheng's Vermillion Bird bloodline was excited by it. His blood churned and boiled vigorously and the divine imprints of the Vermillion Blood shone like golden lights.

Lu Zheng's bloodline power flowed out of his body like a stream and reacted with the ambient fire Qi. His body changed and his hair changed from silky black to strong locks of red that pierced into the ground around him. His skin turned crimson and different types of Vermillion Birds and fiery creatures formed around him.

He had unconsciously tapped into the base battle body of the Vermillion Bird Race.

The golden divine imprints of the Vermillion Blood and the azure imprint of the Astral Thunderbolt formed on Lu Zheng's body as he cultivated. He was tempering his blood to improve his bloodline.

The fire path Yi clansmen shook. As they peered at Lu Zheng, it was like they were looking at an open book of fire path profound meaning. They suddenly felt like if they focused now, they would increase their fire path attainment.

They did not dare to idle. Immediately, without agreement, they all sat down and focused on comprehending the laws of fire path around them.

Alaka'i and the others did not understand what was happening. They only felt that Lu Zheng was creating a beautiful show of fire path beasts.
