Zhan Long

I was dealt a huge blow, was my Blazing Sun Armor an imitation? But Beichen Guan was probably right. Blazing Sun Armor was a shield of pure energy so as long as the energy was pure enough, nothing could penetrate it. Even the claws of A Grade Artificials wouldn't be able to break through the Blazing Sun Armor's defence

…

"Senior, then how should I cultivate?" I asked.

Beichen Guan smiled, "Breathe in and rotate, slowly train your power. You just need to close your eyes and remove your thoughts. Gather it in your hands to form the armor. Don't stop and continue to rotate it until you finish all the Blazing Sun Power in your body."

I nodded and continued to sit on the ground. I closed my eyes and spread my right hand. Flames flew out and formed small Blazing Sun Armor on my fingernails.

Beichen Guan said, "Look to the left, there is an infra red thermometer that can check your Blazing Sun Armor's temperature. The higher the purity, the higher the temperature but you must control your strength and not let the Blazing Sun Power leak. If not my small wooden house will be burnt by you."

I turned around and there really was a thermometer. On it, it showed my armor's current temperature, 4711 degrees but I was actually suppressing my thermal energy and not releasing it if not the high temperature would cause this tower to turn into a flame ocean. In truth, a Blazing Sun Realm expert had to control temperature and be able to focus the Blazing Sun Armor to around 1 millimeter.

…

Beichen Guan stopped speaking and just closed his eyes. I did too and slowly breathed in. I gathered Blazing Sun Energy to purify the Blazing Sun Armor. I tried cultivating like this before but I never tried to use up all my energy. As expected, like what Beichen Guan said, the armor got hotter and hotter and not long later it exceeded 5000 degrees. Moreover, it was still climbing.

Who knew how long passed by it felt as if my strength was being sucked dry. My shirt was wet and I felt exhausted.

"Continue, don't give up until you can't support the Blazing Sun Power." He continued.

"En."

I nodded and continued to hold on

Who knew how long passed but my body started to shake. A scorching feeling spread from my fingers and my body was unable to support the Blazing Sun Armor.

"Hua…"

The Blazing Sun flame on my fingers flickered and it was about to extinguish.

Finally, I sighed and fell to the ground. I said towards the sky, "Senior, my strength has been sucked dry."

Beichen Guan smiled, "That is right, your body is like a pond. To be able to fill more water, you need to suck it all out and dig more space to build this pond. This is the process you are going through. What was the highest temperature?"

"6122."

"Not bad, go eat and then rest for half an hour before continuing."

"Yes!"

Who knew how long I had cultivated for but my stomach was growling. I turned around and saw that someone had placed a bucket of rice by the door with a few dishes. Although there was no light in the room, but the moment I used the heart eye I was able to see everything. I could even see what dishes they were… Braised chicken, pork slices etc. They were good rice dishes so I started eating right away!

I ate seven bowls of rice and pretty much the entire bucket of rice that even I was shocked. When did I become such a huge eater?

After burping,

I laid on the wall behind me and rested for a short while before Beichen Guan ordered me to sit up and cultivate.

From that half an hour, my strength recovered by 25%. It felt as if the old master was pushing me but I could sense that my upper limit was increasing. This was something I hadn't felt over this period of time. My body and meridians were feeling much wider, it was as if my veins were being opened up.

Not long later, I used up my strength once more.

Old Master Beichen Guan gave me some time to recover 25% strength before I continued to cultivate and use it all.

But I noticed that the temperature of my Blazing Sun Armor was getting higher and higher. I went from 4000 degrees to 9000+ degrees. When I broke ten thousand, I felt like the small flame armor on my fingertips was like a small nuclear reactor. Fortunately, I formed a shield above this layer of strength, if not this small piece would destroy the houses within hundred meters!

My body was wet but then it dried up right away and then it turned wet once more. This cultivation process felt endless. But the old master was really kind and he stopped when needed.

…

But very quickly, I witnessed his violence.

"Hua!"

When I rested for 3 hours and healed up to around 70-80%, the old master stood up. He stepped on flames and smiled towards me, "Li Xiao Yao do you know what is the strongest ability of the mid Blazing Sun Realm?"

"Blazing Sun Armor?" I asked.

"No, a small portion of armor is useless. A true expert can see through your weakness and the best defence is impenetrable defence. So, the highest realm of Blazing Sun Armor is like that…"

He hollered and flames wrapped around his body to form a 10-centimeter armor. They protected his whole body and the flame lit up the entire tower. Beichen Guan was covered in the flame armor and he looked like a god, "This is the highest level of the Blazing Sun Armor, the Song Dynasty cultivators called this– Flame Body Protection!"

I was speechless. The person from the Song Dynasty was definitely a senior in game development, if not how would the name sound like that of a skill…

…

Beichen Guan continued, "I know that you have to face many dangers so you need this skill but you can't do it yet. So since you came, I will make you learn this if not you can forget about leaving!"

I was stunned, 'Senior, you are forcing things a little right?"

"No."

He smiled and showed his violent side, "I will use Blazing Sun Power to attack you and you need to gather Blazing Sun Armor to protect yourself. Remember, I won't show mercy. The more you form, the safer you are until you can get 100% defence, then your Flame Body Protection would be complete."

I sucked in a deep breath and stood up. I kicked the bowl aside and walked forwards. I bowed, "Then… Thank you senior!"

…

Beichen Guan smiled and didn't say anything. he didn't even move. Flames gathered from his body and turned into a flame sword that flew towards me. It wasn't really strong but it was quick.

I couldn't dodge at all. Beichen Guan didn't plan to allow me to dodge. I was only able to form a 20-centimeter Flame Armor in front of my best!

"Peng!"

Beichen Guan controlled his strength and his attack spread out along my armor. He smiled, "Still okay, but… My attacks will increase in number so be careful! I also heard that our Feng'er likes a girl called Lin Wan Er. You took Lin Wan Er from his side, did that happen? As his old master, I have to do something for him right?"

Damn, this old fellow wants to kill me?

Beichen Guan became really ruthless and three flame swords flew over. I formed three Blazing Sun Armor to defend and also controlled the trajectory of the armor to block his attacks. Three more attacks came after and they were from three angles. They were as fast as lightning and I was unable to move my body to dodge.

"Peng peng…"

I formed two Blazing Sun Armor fragments to block two attacks but the third exploded on my shoulder. Both my jacket and long sleeved shirt were shattered. Fortunately, Beichen Guan didn't use much strength so it was painful but I wasn't injured!

"Come again kid!"

…

Many flame meteors flew around the small temple. I stood on the spot and gathered Blazing Sun Armor to defend. Under these intense attacks, I saw through some secrets within and formed Blazing Sun Armor much quicker. I originally could only control 3-4 pieces but now I could even control 9.

But where was one's limit, probably someone wouldn't know.

Beichen Guan was someone that helped me to see my limit!

Time passed bit by bit and even I didn't know how long I was in here for.

…

"Peng peng peng…"

Many flame meteors struck me but none of them dealt much damage to me. Although I was in a bad state and my clothes were all destroyed but I was able to form a dense amount of flame armors around me. Each one of them was connected and controlled by me, like… I had successfully trained the Flame Body Protection?

"Ha, did I succeed?"

I felt really weak but I still asked with joy.

The flames around Beichen Guan's body disappeared and he sat on the mattress once more, "Kid, you are the most talented cultivator I have seen so please take care. I have done what Lin Cheng told me to do so you can head out."

"Thank you senior!"

I cupped my fist and knelt one knee onto the ground. The Blazing Sun Armor around me scattered too but the moment it did, I was totally exhausted. I climbed and stumbled out. When I was out, I noticed that it was morning and both Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue were looking at me in shock.

"How… How did you end up like that?" Lin Wan Er helped me up in shock.

I hugged her and nearly cried. This process was too tough, I was just being beaten up!
