Episode 9: Flame... Dragon Flame!(Past)
The element of flame or fire existed since ancient times. Its the most unique entity among the other three basic element, Water, Earth, Air.
It is because flame occupies a spot in both destruction and creation. Flame reign supreme in the cycle of end and beginning.
Flame is the source of end and destruction.
A single speck of Flame can cause an entire forest to be set ablaze. Causing all trees and greenery to turn into ash and the forest inhabitants to become homeless. A single speck of flame abolishes life created over thousands of years.
Yet, Flame is also the source of warmth. As flame generates heat and light.
Flame is also the source of creation and the element which ignites the birth and growth of civilization. Flame is engraved in human history since ancient times.
Flame has been used as a main component of weird rituals of many tribes. It is worshipped as God by many people of modern Earth. It is used in agriculture for clearing land. Flame is must for cooking delicious meal.
Flame is the only element that can smelt metal and weapons are forged after smelting metal!
Flame is the source of weapon creation. Weapon is the reason why man(humankind) had been able to crush all adversaries in ancient times and defeat the natural predators that roamed in the jungle. Ancient times where the law of the jungle was prominent.
Feng learned flame magic mere years after transmigrating to Eastern immortals Western Gods Star Clusters. Flame was the third magic learned by Feng. The first two being Blood Magic and wicked Divine Magic.
But Feng was the most prominent in flame magic!
It is all because of his teacher, «Elder-immortal Origin dragon».
The very first thing his teacher told him was Origin Flame Magic and the various style of flame dragon dance.
«Elder immortal origin dragon» was not merely a character that existed in a tale Feng created to fool the mortals. Rather he was Feng actual master, and a creature of origin.
In the Eastern immortals Western Gods star clusters there existed a valley inhabitated by dragons of all elements and exotic nature. The valley was named «Nine-Season»; for the valley was divided into nine different regions. Each region in which the same season remain, throughout the year and will remain the same for all eternity. Each region was as big as thousands of Earth combined.
«Elder immortal origin dragon» was the creator, founder and owner of «Nine-season valley».
«Elder immortal origin dragon» became Feng master after Feng faced a huge conspiracy and nearly lost his life. He became Feng master because he wanted to train Feng, so that Feng can defeat 'Heavenly Emperor Tian Wu'.
Though, Flame is just one of the elements his master taught him.
It was his master that truly made him understand the meaning of flame being both 'destructive and protective'.
"The origin flame magic is divided into three path, depending upon a person will. Each path effects the nature of the origin flame. The will 'To destroy what one must to protect his pride'. The will 'To destroy what one must to protect those he love and cherishes'. The will 'To destroy what one must to avenge himself. 'Little tenth' what path will you choose?" These were the words Feng master graced his wisdom with.
At that time, feng was consumed by endless rage and heart-wrenching sorrow. Rage against 'Heavenly Emperor Tian Wu' and Heart-wrenching sorrow because of losing his wife.
The only word that could come out of Feng mouth was, "I want to destroy"
The Origin flame dragon path at that time he choosed was 'To destroy what one must to avenge himself'
But this time, he will choose another path. This life Feng will was 'To destroy what one must to protect those he love!'
Feng Flame magic chants reverberated throughout the elevated front parking slot of Flamingo Mall. No soul or dead creature was in sight. It was only Feng and him alone, sitting cross-legged with an open right hand, below the gloomy clouds. His face Illuminated by light emitting out of the glossy crystal clear windows of the that Mall.
"The flame comes from the heart,
Oh Heart, let blood rush throughout my body."
Along with this chant, blood began to rush inside of Feng body like water falling out of a broken dam. Feng body began to heat up as the thumping of his heart reverberated along with his chants.
"Thoughts come from the mind,
Oh Brain, form a thousand thoughts."
Feng golden soul flickered in response and a mystical energy travelled to his second-energy field.
"A thousand thoughts combines to form a single firm will. A single will that carries the entire weight of my life conviction."
A golden seed coated in mystical symbols was formed in Feng second-energy field.
"All blood rush throughout my body like erupting volcano. Become the evidence of my passion to kill what I must to protect those I love."
Some of Feng hot like lava blood got absorbed by the seed present in his second-energy field. The blood crystallized after being absorbed and poked their way outside the seed. The golden seed than got ordained by blood jewel.
"Bless my soul with flame. A flame to fight back and defy what's ordained by fate."
The seed violently trembled and some flame energy along with divine energy from his second energy field was consumed. A wisp formed above the palm of Feng right-hand. The wisp was golden in colour, matching sun beauty.
"Origin Flame Magic: «Dragon of destructions»" Feng said.
The wisp began to grow out of his palm and it took the form of a 4 meter dragon that swirled around Feng Mei.
"Flame Magic really do works!" Feng said gazing at the dragon with two tentacle like mustache, that was swirling around him.
"Set it all ablaze" Feng said gazing at the broken cars littered in the parking slot.
"Roar!!" The dragon roared majestically in response and took flight towards the cars.
Its body swirled in the surrounding in different arcs, sometime ascending someone descending, as if it was dancing and it began to pass through each and every substance in the area. Then it returned back to Feng Mei.
