CHAPTER 224: CHAPTER 30: HIGH-TEMPERATURE SPELL

"Snort, snort..."

The Pig Demon focused intently on gnawing the bone, only when Ouyang Hao exuded his imposing aura did it protect its food as if facing a great enemy.

"Ooowwwooo!!!"

But in the next moment, invisible threads bound its whole body, making it unstable and causing it to fall to the ground, rolling over.

Spiritual Power Condensing Threads!

Lin Jing swung his left hand, then flicked an ember-red pill from his right hand, which flew into the Pig Demon’s mouth.

Several Gluttonous Pills followed closely behind, flying in as well.

Condensing a pseudo-elixir, although much less difficult than forming a true Golden Core Dao, still couldn’t be accomplished in a short time.

This Gluttonous Pill could ensure that the Pig Demon swiftly digests the effects of the solar pseudo-elixir, avoiding a long wait.

"Don’t struggle, focus on taking the pill."

As the pill entered, Lin Jing began to speak slowly, causing the Pig Demon’s pupils to shrink, filled with fear far more terrifying than the might of a Golden Core it sensed earlier.

Under the pressure of the Beast Taming Body, the Pig Demon obediently lay on the ground, digesting the pill’s power, yet Lin Jing did not remove the threads binding it...

Next, he would use the threads formed from spiritual power to sense the Pig Demon’s transformation.

"How long do we have to wait?" Ouyang Hao asked nervously.

Lin Jing, who was currently "diagnosing through suspended threads", began to speak: "Given the current absorption rate, about one hour, I think."

"Alright." Senior Brother Ouyang gave a heavy nod, watching the Pig Demon’s transformation closely, as he himself would also have to consume the solar pseudo-elixir like this Pig Demon soon.

In an instant, one hour passed.

The Pig Demon, originally earthen brown all over, was now entirely crimson, like a roasted pig.

However, the high temperatures brought by the mutant solar grass did not currently cause it any negative effects. Within its body, amidst flashes of firelight, a bright red pill seemed to become a new organ, floating within it.

Under the influence of this bright red pill, it appeared to gain exceptional heat resistance... The Pig Demon snorted repeatedly, with the temperature of its body surface rising steadily. As time passed, the air around it grew blurry, surrounding plants began to wither and burn, and a startling heat wave emanated from its body, causing Senior Brother Ouyang’s eyes to light up.

Buzz!

The Pig Demon’s temperature rose even higher, as even the ground and rocks within a certain range started melting, flowing like lava, and this process seemed to be just the beginning...

"Don’t let the power diffuse naturally; attempt to control this high temperature through the pseudo-elixir formed within." Under Lin Jing’s directive, the Pig Demon hesitated for a moment before reluctantly opening its mouth and blowing fiercely. Next moment, a wave of scorching heat blew toward the nearby mountain.

With a whoosh.

The entire mountain began to melt, resembling an erupting volcano, with massive destructive power that made Senior Brother Ouyang exclaim: "Its current cultivation level corresponds to a pseudo-core between Foundation Establishment and Golden Core, but just the power of this Pig’s Breath surpasses the spell power of most Golden Core cultivators!"

"Indeed."

"It seems there’s no problem. It is not a fire-type demon beast; before taking the pseudo-elixir, it was only at Foundation Establishment Peak. If a cultivator practiced fire magic or had a fire-attribute physique and took the solar pseudo-elixir, they could exhibit even greater power." Lin Jing heaved a sigh of relief.

Looks like it was a success.

"Senior Brother, it’s your turn." Lin Jing looked at Senior Brother Ouyang.

"Ah..." Senior Brother Ouyang, still a bit nervous, decided to give it a try after witnessing the might brought by the solar pseudo-elixir.

He opened his mouth, directly taking the pill Lin Jing handed him, and, seeing this, to save time, Lin Jing quickly gave Senior Brother Ouyang a few Gluttonous Pills as well.

Thump.

Thump.

After consuming the pills, Senior Brother Ouyang’s heart immediately raced rapidly, the sound deafening, audible even to Lin Jing and the Pig Demon just now. Currently, Senior Brother Ouyang’s body surface was also turning red quickly, absorbing the pill’s power at a much faster rate than the Pig Demon.

"Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot..."

He continually shouted, while, within his body, next to his Golden Core, a red pseudo-elixir slowly congealed, attaching to his Golden Core, spinning rapidly. With the appearance of this pseudo-elixir, Senior Brother Ouyang’s condition improved somewhat, yet he still seemed a bit muddled, as if burnt silly.

This phenomenon had occurred with the Pig Demon earlier, so neither of them was too surprised. As time passed, the pseudo-elixir completely stabilized within Senior Brother Ouyang, and compared to the clumsy Pig Demon, Ouyang Hao, as a Golden Core Cultivator, demonstrated a more exquisite application of pseudo-elixir techniques right from the start.

"High-temperature technique!" He slowly raised his hand, with a hot, blurry cluster of energy floating above his palm, spinning irregularly like a storm. Witnessing this Divine Power, Senior Brother Ouyang brought out a treasured armor, making contact with the high-temperature power in his palm...

In one pat, the treasured armor melted instantly.

Casually tossing it aside, his hand continued to unleash high heat, leaving a deep, flowing magma-like crack on the ground wherever it passed.

"Powerful..." Ouyang Hao was deeply shaken, a single pill granting someone such powerful high-temperature technique, now he completely trusted Lin Jing’s Alchemy Dao mastery.

Clap, clap, clap.

"Congratulations, Senior Brother, for achieving the high-temperature pseudo-elixir technique." Lin Jing smiled in applause, congratulating as he opened his mouth.

"Don’t rush to congratulate me; it seems my Primordial Yang Body’s power and this high temperature can also form a combined magic!" Ouyang Hao spoke of something unexpected to Lin Jing, with a whoosh, his sun power and high temperature combined, and an orange flame appeared slowly in his palm.

This flame, rich in yang energy, Lin Jing recognized it at a glance.

"Yang Flame, a yang attribute flame, is the nemesis of all gloomy, evil, cold energies." Lin Jing said in amazement, "So it’s this high-temperature technique that caused your Primordial Yang Body to mutate, giving birth to this Yang Flame of fire?"

Ouyang Hao laughed heartily, saying: "It seems so."

"Junior Brother, would this be of any use to you? I remember your Pill Pavilion said something about collecting strange fires???"

Lin Jing shook his head with a smile: "No use, the origin of this Yang Flame is from yourself, and this Yang Flame from your condensation cannot be refined by outsiders, it’s not a kind of fire."

"But leaving some sub-flames for me I can still do."

After all, treasure beasts shouldn’t be viewed with common sense; since Senior Brother Ouyang condensed Yang Flame through a solar pseudo-elixir, perhaps the Fire Lin Dragon could also reference this Yang Flame power to condense it through the solar pseudo-elixir.

If successful, its core formation of strange fire would be complete.

"Great!!!" Senior Brother Ouyang was especially excited at this moment, not to mention the Beast Taming Sect True Heirs; he felt there weren’t many elders within the Beast Taming Sect who could defeat him now.

He couldn’t wait to return to the Beast Taming Sect’s main group to show off his change in strength.

"By the way, Junior Brother, this pig, you don’t want it, right?" After his joy, Senior Brother Ouyang looked at the Pig Demon, which also condensed a pseudo-elixir.

Seeing itself being watched, the Pig Demon took a step back.

"If you don’t want it, I’ll ride it back. With a little cultivation, it can also become a formidable Golden Core combat power..."

"As you wish." Lin Jing shook his head.

......

......

A little over a month later.

Beyond the sixteen paths of Qingzhou, in a non-human faction region.

"Disciple of the Beast Taming Sect Leader, Ouyang Hao, has an important matter to report; seeks audience with Lady Saintess." A young man riding a jet-propelled flying Pig Demon descended slowly outside a palace.
