Chapter 59: Condensing the Fire Seed

This kid, is he really eating soft rice?

A hint of envy flashed in Su Yun's mind.

Honestly, being a rich girl's boyfriend is quite enjoyable.

If his last name were Xiao, maybe when he was four years old, he would really try to cling to someone's thigh.

But unfortunately, there are no "ifs," and he can't catch that big ship anymore.

Su Yun shook off this thought.

The progress of his cultivation over the years has given him some confidence. With his foresight, as well as the abilities of the system, he also has the qualification to reach the top.

A rich girlfriend is just going to affect the speed of his cultivation.

Su Yun flew back home, his Qi depleted once again. Sitting cross-legged, he restored his Qi to its peak and entered the system space.

The body of the Amethyst Winged Lion King was too massive to fit into his small courtyard.

For Su Yun, the system space was the safest place.

Extracting the fire seed from the Amethyst Winged Lion King's body was a relatively lengthy and cumbersome process, and it couldn't be interrupted midway, or it would easily fail.

So, Su Yun decided to do it in the system space.

Entering the system space, the massive body of the Amethyst Winged Lion King came into view. From Su Yun's perspective, it looked like a small mountain.

In comparison, Su Yun appeared quite small.

Picking up corpses is a good thing, Su Yun thought as he looked at the huge creature in front of him, nodding in satisfaction.

Su Yun prepared himself, sitting cross-legged, his entire body boiling with Qi, Qi surging through his meridians, emitting a slight sound through Su Yun's body.

Su Yun placed his palms on the blood-stained body of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, closed his eyes, and activated his soul power.

With both Qi and soul power exerted, he directed all the purple flames covering the Amethyst Winged Lion King's body in one direction.

A faint purple light emanated from the Amethyst Winged Lion King's body, and its temperature slowly rose.

Su Yun frowned, focusing all his attention on the Amethyst Winged Lion King's body, not daring to slack off.

Su Yun slowly increased the transmission of Qi and soul power, which was quite a considerable amount of work.

If it were an ordinary Great Fighter, they wouldn't be able to do it at all.

However, Su Yun, having lived two lives, had a naturally powerful soul power, coupled with practicing Soul Technique.

Under his skyrocketing soul power, he couldn't be trifled with by so-called fourth-grade alchemists.

Plus, Yao Lao and the Pure Lotus Demon Saint's experience in playing with fire allowed him to fully utilize Qi and soul power without wasting a single bit.

All these accumulations allowed him to barely extract the fire seed from a Sixth Rank Demonic Beast with the cultivation of a Great Fighter.

As time passed, Su Yun's Qi was rapidly consumed, and fine sweat appeared on his forehead.

Su Yun's teeth moved slightly as he swallowed the Returning Qi Pills that had long been in his mouth.

After some time, almost all the purple fire in the Amethyst Winged Lion King's body was gathered.

Su Yun gritted his teeth. He had reached the final step, and the previous process had been successfully completed. It would be a waste to abandon it now.

"Condense!"

Su Yun shouted lowly, increasing the input of soul power and Qi once again. A light spot with purple flames rose from the body of the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

Su Yun saw it and was overjoyed. It succeeded!

He carefully put away this thing in a specially made jade bottle.

Su Yun took a long breath, his eyes filled with excitement.

The level of the Fighter Realm was not far away from him.

At this level, he could do much more.

First of all, as he broke through to the Fighter Realm, the Qi in his body would surge, and his strength would increase significantly.

What's even more crucial is that at this level, he can already refine fifth-grade elixirs!

The Blood Lotus Pill, a fifth-grade elixir, is necessary for swallowing the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire.

He always planned to break through to the Fighter Realm before heading to the Tagor Desert. The Blood Lotus Pill is one of the reasons for this.

Although he can fuse it using the system's fusion function, it still requires consuming a fifth-grade demonic core.

Obtaining fifth-grade or higher demonic cores in the Imperial Empire is not easy.

Even if he has the financial resources, whether they are available on the market is uncertain.

Fifth-grade demonic beasts correspond to Great Fighters among humans, and they are quite limited in number in the Imperial Empire.

Moreover, he hasn't cultivated any Earth-Grade Martial Techniques yet, so he's still waiting for a fifth-grade demonic core to fuse with one.

After placing the jade bottle aside, Su Yun swallowed some Returning Qi Pills and restored his Qi to full.

After completing the restoration, Su Yun began searching for medicinal materials in the system space.

The beast fire extracted from sixth-grade demonic beasts, even if it can't rival exotic fires, isn't something a Great Fighter can absorb without preparation.

The second-grade elixirs, Artery Protection Pill and Ice Heart Pill, which were used when he swallowed the two fourth-grade beast fires previously, are no longer effective, as their levels are too low.

He plans to refine a fourth-grade elixir, which is a type of elixir that can condense a thin layer of ice within a fighter's body, used to refine this surplus of purple fire.

Su Yun carefully searched but suddenly felt embarrassed.

While the medicinal materials were sufficient, they lacked a demonic core. Crafting this item requires a fourth-grade ice attribute demonic core.

Fourth-grade demonic cores are easy to come by, but ice attributes are another story.

Su Yun sighed. In the end, he still had to find a fourth-grade demonic beast.

Life is a subject that takes a lifetime to master, going round and round, yet still returning to the starting point.

Today's time is not enough; it's already dark.

Su Yun practiced overnight, took a brief rest, and the next day, he once again headed to the depths of the Monster Beast Mountain Range.

In the sky, Su Yun utilized the Illusory Decision to conceal himself, flying in the air with the Purple Cloud Wings.

Su Yun frowned. There were quite a few fourth-grade demonic beasts, but fourth-grade ice attribute demonic beasts were not so easy to find.

Flying in the sky, Su Yun began searching for lakes and cold, damp places.

Generally speaking, demonic beasts choose their habitats based on their attributes.

For example, fire attribute demonic beasts like to live in volcanoes or hot areas, earth attribute demonic beasts prefer caves or even burrow into the ground.

Naturally, ice attribute demonic beasts like icy plains.

However, this place is not like the extreme cold places of the far north, where it's cold all year round, with vast ice plains.

He had to settle for second best and search for lakes and cold, damp places.

The Monster Beast Mountain Range is vast, and Su Yun had to maintain Illusory Decision and Purple Cloud Wings, which consumed a considerable amount of Qi.

So, every now and then, Su Yun had to return to the system space to restore his Qi before searching again.

After flying back and forth for a day, Su Yun still hadn't found anything.

But he wasn't discouraged. He returned to the days when he stayed in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, searching during the day and returning to the system space to practice at night.

This kind of life went on for three full days before finally encountering a turning point.

In a gloomy, damp cave, two fourth-grade demonic beasts were resting inside.

And Su Yun was standing at the entrance of the cave.

Slowly stepping into the cave without making any noise, his figure and aura were concealed by Illusory Decision.
