Chapter 6: Absorbing Flame Energy

  In a huge pit with a diameter of ten zhang and a depth of five zhang, Ye Lin wore a beast skin shorts, in the midst of the raging flames burning all around him, he punched out his fists one move at a time.

  Not bad, from the horizon a piece of fire cloud, Ye Lin saw the divine dragon flying in the midst of the great fire, he suddenly had an idea, wanting to cultivate within the great fire and absorb the thick flame energy.

  It can be said that Ye Lin has already entered a state of madness, using his body to absorb external energy, which is a skill that only warriors can possess. Ye Lin, who is now just a small warrior in the second layer of the Body Refining Realm, actually dares to think that he can use his own body to absorb external energy. Isn't this crazy? What else could it be?

  However, Ye Lin still jumped into the fire pit, in the midst of the raging flames, he opened up his fist technique, one punch and one claw, like a soaring dragon flying through the sky.

  Although the boxing method looks like the original Dragon Elephant Boxing, if you look closely, you will find that it is now truly only 'Dragon Elephant' without 'Elephant'.

  In ancient legend, the dragon is the strongest attacking power among all divine beasts, while the elephant is the strongest in terms of strength among all divine beasts.

  It can be said that Long Xiang Pan Ruo Fist is a kind of fist method that combines the strongest attack with the strongest strength, and those who practice this fist method will have strength that far exceeds others.

  This way, it's not hard to explain why Ye Lin's father would be a strong fighter who can defeat anyone in Yunshui City, even though he only obtained one or two percent of the 'Dragon Elephant' true transmission.

  Ye Lin is now one level higher than his father, having truly obtained the divine dragon's legacy and grasped its essence.

  Originally, the divine dragon, as the most powerful of all creatures in the universe, roamed freely between heaven and earth, and was not something that ordinary people could see. To cultivate such a technique, one could only use the python as an object of contemplation, and at best gain only 1% or 2% of its essence. However, Ye Lin was an exception, possessing magical eyes that allowed him to gaze into the true origin of the dragon's law, thus gaining about 10% or 12%.

  However, even so, to truly grasp its essence, there is still a great distance.

  The Dragon is the most powerful attacking creature in the universe, born with unparalleled strength, superior to all things. It has sharp claws like an eagle, capable of tearing any living thing in half. Its snake-like body allows it to roam freely in space, moving a hundred million miles with just one movement. With its beautiful and powerful deer-like antlers, it also possesses hard scales that provide immense defensive power, making it invincible and all-powerful.

  What's more, the dragon has a powerful dragon flame that can destroy heaven and earth. With one breath of dragon flame, the sky will be burned with a hole.

  To truly obtain the divine dragon's marrow, one must comprehend the tyrannical way of the dragon fire.

  Coincidentally, as if by fate, Ye Lin suddenly had an epiphany and thought of practicing his fist technique in the midst of the raging fire, feeling the majesty of the flames, their gentleness, their destructive power, and their ruthlessness...

  Gradually, Ye Lin completely sank into the study of boxing, the comprehension of fire.

  "Hmm? This guy, the energy of fire has already been stirred up by him."

  Xing Tian had been watching Ye Lin's movements all along, he wanted to rescue him at the first time when Ye Lin couldn't bear the raging fire. However, what he didn't expect was that after Ye Lin jumped down, not only did he not get burned by the fire, but instead, with his fist technique moving, he actually made the flames dance along with his fists.

  "This, how is this possible? Isn't it that only true warriors can absorb the natural energy of heaven and earth? How can he?"

  Just now, Xing Tian clearly saw that the heat of the raging fire had dropped a level, and he also felt a sense of flame energy gathering towards the center of the big pit. However, he could also clearly feel that around Ye Lin's body right now, the flame energy hadn't increased at all.

  Such a result can only explain one problem, that is, the flame energy gathered in the center has been absorbed by Ye Lin.

  But how is this possible? He's a martial artist at the Refining Body stage, so how can he absorb energy?

  "Add fire!"

  Suddenly, a voice came into his ear from beside him.

  "Master."

  Turning his head, it was actually his master, the one-armed old man had arrived by his side.

  "Add firewood."

  The old man with a broken arm didn't care about Xing Tian at all, but instead stared at Ye Lin with his eyes wide open and shouted loudly.

  "Yes!"

  Xing Tian did not dare go against his master's will and hastily pushed all the wooden firewood prepared by Ye Lin, which was as big as a mountain, into the large pit.

  "Now that Master is here, I'm not afraid anymore." Xing Tian thought secretly in his heart.

  Although he was being roasted by the fierce flames and sweating profusely, he still didn't want to leave. After all, he couldn't bear to part with Ye Lin and wanted to stay by his side every step of the way.

  It was the old man with the severed arm who stood beside the raging flames, his body seemingly unaffected by the intense heat.

  "Master's strength is really high!"

  Looking at the armless old man who seemed like an ordinary person, Xing Tian thought with some envy.

  However, when he looked at Ye Lin again in the midst of the raging flames, he was even more shocked. From Xing Tian's perspective, Ye Lin was currently standing in the middle of the inferno, yet his body didn't even have a single drop of sweat on it. Moreover, his hair and eyebrows were still perfectly intact, as if the flames that seemed to be unbearable for even Xing Tian had no effect on him whatsoever.

  "This, this has all been absorbed!"

  Xing Tian exclaimed, he suddenly discovered an astonishing reality, that is, the raging flames in the big pit all gathered towards the center. However, when all the flame energy was gathered around Ye Lin's side, the raging flames mysteriously disappeared, as if Ye Lin's physical body had a bottomless black hole.

  "Can it really absorb?"

  Xing Tian did not dare to imagine that this was actually the young master who had been called a waste by others and whom he had accompanied for ten years.

  However, seeing this situation, Xing Tian's heart only had excitement: Hmph, from now on, whoever dares to call Young Master a waste again, I'll beat him until he can't even take care of himself, and make him become a real waste.

  At this time, in Xing Tian's heart, Ye Lin was that number one divine talent under the heavens. What did it matter if his innate talent was inferior? Who could make their physical body absorb the energy of the heavens and earth during the Body Refining stage?

  No one had ever heard of it, but surprisingly, his young master, Ye Lin, did just that.

  "Xing Tian, hurry up and go find some firewood, otherwise this kid won't have a fierce flame to aid him in his cultivation, or he'll wake up from it."

  The old man with a broken arm was there watching Xing Tian excitedly gesticulating, his mouth slightly smiling, saying.

  With the strength of a broken-armed old man, he could naturally see that Ye Lin had already entered a mysterious realm of understanding martial arts, a realm that was rare in ten thousand years, even more mysterious than sudden enlightenment.

  Naturally, such a state of mind, the stronger your intuition, the more beneficial it will be for you.

  However, the old man with the broken arm knew that without the raging fire, Ye Lin would definitely wake up from this strange state.

  "Alright, Master."

  Xing Tian listened to the words of the old man with the broken arm and didn't say another word, raised his own large battle-axe, and walked into the thicket.

  "Little monkey, you go too and help Xing Tian move all the firewood over here."

  Xing Tian's strength was naturally not a big problem, but the old man with the broken arm knew that as long as the fierce fire continued, Ye Lin would still be asleep for a long time. In this case, the amount of firewood required would be somewhat excessive.

  With the help of Hunky Monkey, transporting firewood would be much easier.

  Ahh!!

  Hunyuan Golden Hair Monkey felt a bit awkward when he heard that he had to cooperate with Xing Tian, and was not very willing. He let out a loud cry, expressing his own resistance.

  However, the current Broken Arm Old Man only wants to see how long Ye Lin can persist, and there is no room for him to oppose.

  "Hurry up!"

  The old man with the broken arm let out a low growl and glared with his eyes.

  After that, Hunyuan Golden Hair Monkey became much more honest, although unwillingly, and followed Xing Tian into the forest.

  Soon, from the jungle, came the sound of trees falling.

  Boom! Boom! Boom!!!

  The Hunyuan Golden Hair Monkey was indeed incredibly powerful, carrying a thick and large tree trunk from the jungle as if it were nothing.

  "Let it go!"

  The old man with the broken arm pointed in front of his eyes and ordered.

  The Hunyuan Golden Hair Monkey tapped its furry head, and with a tree trunk as thick as a sea bowl and over three zhang long, it put it down and continued walking towards the thicket.

  "Little kid, I'd like to see just how strong your intuition is!"

  As he spoke, the one-armed old man swung his arm, and a flash of knife light passed by. This tree trunk, over three zhang long and as thick as a sea bowl, instantly turned into scattered firewood on the ground.

  "Go!"

  The old man with one arm swung his remaining arm once more, and all the firewood was evenly placed around the large pit. The dying flames were rekindled, and the fire roared back to life, burning fiercely once again.

  It was just that Ye Lin was still punching one after another, not affected by the external disturbances at all. However, when the flames rose again, all the flame energy seemed to be drawn in and converged towards him once more.

  "Good kid, you've absorbed so much flame energy and yet it still isn't enough."

  This raging inferno, although just a ordinary flame, was enormous in quantity. Even an average warrior, even if they had reached the peak of Body Tempering and were a Yuan Dan Realm expert, would be completely incinerated by such a massive fire.

  As the saying goes, water and fire are ruthless; in front of them, whoever it is, dare not be careless.

  It was precisely because of this that the one-armed old man's interest grew even thicker.

  "Alright, this time I'm going to see just how much potential you've got, you little brat!"
