I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 754 The Origin Fire of Zhurong
"laugh!"

As soon as the dragon claw touched the crimson broken wall, Xia Daoming couldn't help but gasp and grit his teeth, a long-lost burning pain drilling straight into his forehead.

The golden scales covering the dragon's claws, the hardest of all and impenetrable even to prehistoric species at the True Transformation Realm level, were softening at this moment, showing signs of melting away.

"Both are true fires, but the primordial fire cultivated by Zhurong has reached the level of burning the heavens and destroying the earth, which is far beyond what my current true fire can compare to. Even if only a little bit is attached to this broken wall, its power can melt my Ancestral Dragon Claw!" Xia Daoming was not surprised but delighted. He endured the pain and gripped the red broken wall tightly, pulling it out of the torrent.

The crimson cliffs, viewed from afar, already give the impression of being enormous.

When it was seized and landed in front of Xia Daoming, it appeared even larger, like a huge mountain standing in front of him. The ancient and majestic aura emanating from it made the Taoist figure in the purple rainbow circle behind Xia Daoming's head suddenly become unstable, as if it could not withstand this aura.

Standing before this broken wall, Xia Daoming himself felt a sense of insignificance and triviality.

"Not good!" Xia Daoming was startled, and the purple rainbow ring suddenly burst forth with purple light.

The faint light was able to withstand the ancient and majestic aura emanating from the broken wall, and was not intimidated or suppressed by it.

Only then could Xia Daoming truly look at the ancient runes on the broken wall and try to feel the aura emanating from them.

Just one glance, one heartfelt feeling—

Xia Daoming was jolted awake.

Deep in my mind, it was as if a door sealed for countless years was quietly pushed open by the ancient runes on the broken wall.

next moment.

A celestial palace, beyond description, slowly emerged from the endless void.

That was not the exquisite beauty of the Heavenly Palace.

Instead, it is a—

The Heavenly Palace is based on Heaven and Earth and its beams are the Great Dao.

The Heavenly Palace hangs beneath the crimson sky, its palaces stretching endlessly, layer upon layer. Each hall seems to have risen directly from molten mountains, its walls rugged and majestic, unadorned yet naturally flowing with flame-like patterns.

Those textures are not decorations.

But -

The trajectory left by the Great Dao cultivated by Zhu Rong at the beginning of the creation of the Crimson Heaven.

Beneath the Heavenly Palace lies a vast expanse of crimson earth.

The earth split open into countless abysses, and the subterranean fire surged like a river of blood. The flames did not burn upwards, but rather rose and fell like the tides, as if the entire world was breathing.

In the very center of that palace, a figure stood silently.

He was tall, but not exaggeratedly so.

Its entire body was enveloped in crimson flames, but the flames were not violent; instead, they were calm and heavy, like the backbone that supports heaven and earth.

Upon seeing this figure, Xia Daoming couldn't help but have a feeling—

He created this world, and he is its unique master.

"Zhurong..."

A name subconsciously surfaced in Xia Daoming's mind.

When that name comes to mind, all the images in my mind vanish.

What appeared before Xia Daoming was still that red broken wall.

At this moment, when Xia Daoming looked at it again, it was no longer just a piece of red broken wall, but seemed to be a heavenly palace that could not be described as "huge".

You can see the whole leopard from just one spot!

Xia Daoming knew that this broken wall was the opportunity for him to glimpse the secrets of Chichen Capital!
He took a deep breath, and in an instant, his mind was completely absorbed into that crimson broken wall.

The ancient runes on the broken wall were no longer static markings in his eyes. They were constantly flowing and changing, revealing the secrets of forging the Crimson Heaven Capital.

That profound and mysterious secret, rooted in the heart and based on the primordial fire of Zhurong as the energy of heaven and earth and the laws of the Great Dao, directly pointing to the original mystery of the creation of the world of Dutian, slowly revealed itself to Xia Daoming.

A glimmer of understanding appeared in Xia Daoming's mind.

The six true fires within his body trembled slightly, seemingly drawn by an invisible force, slowly approaching the rhythmic runes on the broken wall.

True fire was born at the beginning of the world; though different, they share the same origin.

The six true fires were naturally drawn to and resonated with the ancient runes on the broken wall that carried the secrets of the Zhurong Fire.

Sensing the unusual movements of the six true fires within his body, Xia Daoming gained some insight and took the initiative to slowly guide the six true fires within his body, so that they resonated more strongly with the original flames of Zhu Rong, little by little, according to the rhythm shown by the runes.

boom--

After an unknown amount of time, a wisp of crimson-gold flame was drawn out from deep within the broken wall.

The flames were not intense.

Yet it was so heavy it seemed to bear the weight of an entire world, and so mysterious it appeared to be engraved with countless fire runes.

"Zhurong forged the primordial fire of the Crimson Heaven!"

Xia Daoming stared at the wisp of crimson-gold flame, his eyes burning with fervor.

But the burning passion in his eyes quickly turned into calm.

He had just glimpsed a trace of the mysteries of the Crimson Heaven and suddenly realized that the reason he had been unable to reach the threshold of forging a Heavenly World was not only because his understanding of the Dao was not yet sufficient to support a top-tier Heavenly World, but also because his internal organs were not strong enough. The quality and strength of the twelve true fires and true waters he cultivated were far from reaching the level of the primordial fire before him, which had been cultivated for countless years by Zhu Rong.

Overcoming any of these three gaps will require a long period of time for Xia Daoming; it cannot be achieved overnight.

Unless he builds upon the work of his predecessors and directly absorbs and refines their achievements.

The crimson-gold flame before him was the opportunity for Xia Daoming to overcome the gap in those three aspects more quickly.

This wisp of crimson-gold flame is the primordial fire that Zhu Rong cultivated over countless long years. If one can refine and absorb it, one can not only gain a deeper understanding of the mysteries of the Crimson Heaven and improve the quality of the true fire, but also use it to better and faster temper one's internal organs.

Of course, this fire is extremely powerful.

Drawing it into the body for refining is extremely dangerous. Even if a Golden Immortal of the Myriad Laws Realm dares to actively draw it into their body, even if it is only a small wisp, they will surely die ten times out of ten.

However, although Xia Daoming's current realm and strength are far inferior to those of a Golden Immortal in the Myriad Laws Realm, his conditions for obtaining and refining the Origin Fire of Zhu Rong are exceptionally favorable, and even a Golden Immortal in the Myriad Laws Realm cannot compare to him.

First of all, his most powerful part is now the Crimson Palace, where twelve divine soldiers are stationed, and fire sycamore trees are planted on Crimson Island.

The location of the Crimson Palace is the heart.

Chichen Dutian is a capital city built with the heart as its foundation.

From this perspective, Xia Daoming has already laid a solid foundation for the creation of the Crimson Heaven Capital. Relatively speaking, it is easier for him to withstand a small wisp of the Zhurong Origin Fire that originally ran in the Crimson Heaven Capital, and it is also easier for him to absorb and integrate the profound laws contained within it.

On the other hand, with the help of the six true fires of the same origin and the fire sycamore tree to fuse and guide, the impact on the heart will be greatly reduced.

Secondly, and very importantly, Xia Daoming's Purple Mansion has been opened, and his powerful and keen Purple Mansion divine sense can precisely guide and control the changes in the fire.

With his mind racing, after a period of calm analysis, Xia Daoming's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he decided to draw fire into his body.

He became increasingly careful to activate the six true fires within his body, gradually resonating with the original flames of Zhu Rong.

As the resonance grew stronger, the six true flames drew closer and closer to that primordial flame.

The moment they touched, the six true fires fluctuated violently, and like snow melting, the true fires on the contact surface melted and went out.

The Crimson Palace trembled, and its edges and corners showed signs of softening. Xia Daoming felt an unprecedented burning pain.

　That concludes today's update.
