Chapter 222: Swallowing the Abyss Flame!

“Soul Puppet?”

Chu Tian recognized the item in the little fox’s hands. This was an extremely precious item that could substitute a body to carry a soul. When the little fox sucked out the Hell Fire Demon’s soul, the normal Soul Puppet now had the spectre of the Hell Fire Demon.

The little fox gently blew the puppet.

The Hell Fire’s soul was blown out. With a flash of light, it instantly changed form and a small Hell Fire appeared in front of them.

This Hell Fire was not as strong as it was before it was killed, but from the aura released, it was very strong. It was at the level of being able to fight one of the Southern Summer Eight Marquises.

The most important point.

The Hell Fire did not have a consciousness.

It was completely controlled by the little fox.

Feng Caidie and Nangong Yun were both shocked. What kind of magic art was this? It could contain the Hell Fire’s soul and summon a new Hell Fire Demon!

The little fox gave a few happy cries.

The Hell Fire Demon returned to the puppet and came back to the little fox’s hands before it swallowed it back to its stomach.

Chu Tian rubbed his chin.

This technique seemed like it came from an ancient demon clan.

After being with Chu Tian for so long, did the little fox finally awaken a new skill?

Chu Tian asked, “You were hiding in the Trial Tower just to exchange for this puppet?”

The little fox proudly nodded, looking like he was the greatest.

“Then why didn’t you tell me earlier!” Chu Tian smacked down on its head, “Do you think I would steal this broken toy?”

The little fox revealed a look of despise. Who would have known that!

Chu Tian continued to say, “This soul summoning technique seems to be from an ancient demon clan. I never thought that a fellow like you would be able to evolve a skill like this. Since it’s like this, why did you call back the Hell Fire Demon?”

The little fox gave a few gestures.

This little fox’s technique had limitations.

The Soul Puppet was a top class soul storage item, but the best time to take a soul was while the being was alive. This way, the soul would be new and full of life, so it could be used for a long time.

After the Hell Fire Demon was killed, its soul was now in a decomposing state. Even though the little fox stored it into the Soul Puppet, it could last another two months at most.

Once the soul withered away, it would no longer be of use.

The little fox could call out the Hell Fire Demon three or four times at most. Because it had used one time as a test, there were only three times left, so unless it had to, the little fox was not willing to use it again!

The price of this Soul Puppet would not be cheap.

But from the effect of the Soul Puppet, it was considered reasonable for the little fox to exchange for it.

At least with the Soul Puppet and the Hell Fire’s soul, the little fox could display battle strength at the 9th Awakened Soul Layer!

“This time I won’t argue with you.” Chu Tian fiercely said to the little fox, “Don’t let there be a second time!”

The little fox obediently nodded, but in its heart it thought, who would know!

Nangong Yun looked at the stone all around and said, “What do we do with this?”

“This is material from the Abyss, not being damage by the Abyss Flames over a thousand years. It is a very good item, so we will have to take it.”

Everyone agreed with this.

How strong was Chen Bingyu?

Chen Bingyu’s full force palm attack could not do a thing to it.

Just from this point, it could be seen how strong the Hell Fire’s outer layer of stone was. As well, this stone was strong enough to pass through space without tearing and could withstand the burning of the green abyss flames for all those years, it was enough to prove just how firm and resistant to temperature it was.

“These stones are just extra gifts.” Chu Tian said in a mysterious voice, “The reason why I was willing to take a risk and come to Thunder State was mainly because of this Hell Fire Demon.”

In the Abyss World, the Hell Fire Demon wasn’t even considered a high class demon.

There were countless demons in the Abyss World that were stronger than it. However, for creatures of other planes, the Abyss World could not be explored at will. So life forms of the Abyss World could not be found at will.

This Hell Fire Demon was naturally very precious.

The Hell Fire brought materials from the Abyss World out for Chu Tian. However, what Chu Tian was the most interested in was the Hell Fire Demon’s heart.

The Abyss World’s environment was very special.

The Abyss was a world of chaos, with a myriad of things being born.

Under the environment of the Abyss, there would be many natural treasures being born, as well as many beings being born without parents. The Hell Fire Demon was one of those naturally formed beings.

This being could not reproduce or split like the elemental spirits. Their essence was formed when the abyss aura was condensed to a certain point and a special opportunity presented itself, creating a fire seed.

This natural fire seed contained a strong abyss aura, gradually forming a consciousness and wandering the Abyss World. By swallowing energy, it continued to grow, evolving into a flaming meteor that plundered everything in the Abyss World.

After the Hell Fire Demon was killed, its consciousness disappeared, but the fire seed still persisted and could form another Hell Fire Demon after a thousand years.

As for the demon heart, it was the life source of the demon.

The Abyss World was dangerous and if a demon wanted to survive in this environment, they had to protect their weak point. Most of the Abyss Demons were hard to kill. Whether it was breaking their arms, legs, cutting off their head, or even being chopped to eight pieces, it was difficult for them to die.

The reason was very simple.

Abyss Demons had a special technique that condensed all their life energy into a core. Their life energy, soul, and consciousness were placed in the core. As long as the core was not destroyed, their arms and legs could be broken, and even their heads could be cut off without them dying.

That core was the demon’s heart.

When Chu Tian placed the black rocks into the gourd, he found four-five pieces of the demon heart. Chu Tian revealed a look of joy. Although this demon wasn’t very strong, this was still very useful to the current Chu Tian.

He had also found a green crystal that was the size of a fist.

This was not a crystal, but rather a dense cluster of flames and the source of the Hell Fire’s strength – the fire seed!

This Abyss Fire Seed was very strong and contained the Abyss Energy. The most important thing was the natural Abyss Flames was a material suited for Chu Tian’s «Netherworld Flame Sword»!

If he swallowed these flames, his sword art could reach the Large Success Realm!

From the reports of Thunder State’s situation the Divine Wind Marquis gave him, Chu Tian already had a good idea of the Abyss Demon’s status. This fire seed was the main reason why Chu Tian was willing to join this dangerous mission!

The «Netherworld Flame Sword» was an ancient sword art from the Netherworld Sword he obtained in ten thousand ancient corpse tomb. It was a remnant of an ancient sword art, but it was still very powerful. While Chu Tian had been practicing it, he made several changes that increased the strength of the original sword art by several times!

The «Netherworld Flame Sword» was a little similar to the «Starlight Immortal Body». Only if there were enough resources could it be properly cultivated. Chu Tian had found this rare chance, so how could he give it up?

This risk had been worth it!

“Help me keep guard.” Chu Tian pulled out the Netherworld Sword, “I will absorb the fire seed!”

The Hell Fire Demon was already dead, so the fire seed was quickly weakening. Chu Tian did not have time to bring it back to the city to refine, so he was directly refining it on the spot!

Chu Tian placed the fire seed on the ground and then looked at the ice blue sword blade, “The Abyss Flame is not weaker than the Netherworld Ghost Flame, and is even a grade higher. Now it will all depend whether you can take it or not.”

After saying this.

Chu Tian stabbed the sword into the fire seed!

A final wail came from the fire seed as the last chance for the Hell Fire Demon to revive was shattered. A great strength surged forth, spreading out in all directions!

Green flames were absorbed from the fire seed, slowly following the edge of the blade.

Chu Tian could clearly feel that the Netherworld Sword was excited and nervous. It was excited because this power was too delicious, and if it could absorb this power, the Netherworld sword would recover half its strength, returning to the Soul Contracting Weapon level. It was nervous because if its strength was not high enough, it would not be able to stop the attack of the Abyss Flame and would be burned away in the end.

A blue flame was released and the two flames entwined. They were both pushing and pulling, swallowing each other, engaging in an intense battle.

In terms of quality, the Abyss Flame was not lower than the Netherworld Flame.

The Netherworld Ghost Flame had a consciousness and could become the spirit of the Netherworld Sword.

The Abyss Flame also had a consciousness and that was how it changed into the strong Abyss Demon.

Without a doubt, the Abyss Flame could survive on its own and even become a demon. In terms of strength, it was clearly stronger than the Netherworld Ghost Flame!

But the Abyss Flame was in a weakened state and the Netherworld Flame had the home advantage, so it slowly suppressed the green flames.

The Abyss Flame was slowly being absorbed by the Netherworld Flame.

However, while the Abyss Flame had no confidence in winning, it still made its last stand. While the Netherworld Flame was absorbing the Abyss Flame, the abyss aura was released and its nature began to change.

The Netherworld Sword continued to shake!

Following it, a strong power suddenly entered Chu Tian’s body.

While the Abyss Demon was being absorbed by the Netherworld Sword, a strong spiritual energy was being sent into Chu Tian’s body. Chu Tian could clearly feel how strong it was and it even made Chu Tian break through his bottleneck.

Chu Tian revealed a look of joy.

This spiritual energy was very pure, being enough to let him break through to the 4th Awakened Soul Layer!

This was only natural. The Abyss Demon was so strong and after Chu Tian absorbed its power, he could easily break through a small bottleneck!
