Invest in Liu Shen at the beginning! I kill my way through the perfect world!

Following Lin Xuantong and Lin Qing, Huo Ling'er and Qingyi also triggered the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Tribulation.

The place where Huo Ling'er was in seclusion was engulfed in raging flames, turning the entire void into a crimson sea of ​​fire.

Dressed in red, she stood in the center of the sea of ​​fire, holding a crimson crystal surrounded by the phantom of a Vermilion Bird in her palm—the Vermilion Bird Stone.

This stone was a gift from Lin Shu, and it contains the supreme path of nirvana and rebirth, and the burning away of all things.

"The Vermilion Bird undergoes Nirvana, burning the heavens and boiling the seas..."

Huo Ling'er's gaze was firm, and she activated the primal power within the Vermilion Bird Stone without hesitation.

"Bah!"

A clear and melodious phoenix cry resounded through the heavens, and the Vermilion Bird Stone shattered with a crash, transforming into a gigantic Vermilion Bird made entirely of flames, its wings spread wide, blotting out the sun.

The fiery Vermilion Bird let out a long cry and rushed directly towards Huo Ling'er, merging with her.

In an instant, Huo Ling'er's aura surged, and unprecedentedly hot flames ignited around her. Her hair and her pupils turned into the pure color of flames.

However, the process of fusing with the essence of the Vermilion Bird is extremely painful.

That was the domineering power originating from the ancient divine bird, frantically washing over and transforming her physical body and soul, as if trying to completely assimilate her and turn her into a new Vermilion Bird.

Huo Ling'er focused her mind, recalling Lin Shu's calm yet firm gaze when he gave her the stone, and boundless courage welled up in her heart.

Using her own Dao Fire as a catalyst, she continuously refined and tamed the Vermilion Bird's essence, fusing the true meaning of Nirvana within it with her own Dao Fruit.

Her body was constantly being destroyed in the flames, and then reborn again and again under the power of Nirvana. With each rebirth, her aura became stronger and her control over the flames became more exquisite.

The moment the Vermilion Bird's essence was completely refined, the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Tribulation arrived as scheduled.

Endless crimson lightning poured down like a torrential rain, igniting and burning even the laws of nature wherever it passed.

Huo Ling'er let out a long roar, and the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire around her burned fiercely, transforming into an even larger and more magnificent Vermilion Bird of Flames, which took the initiative to rush into the sea of ​​thunder.

She used the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire to fight against the lightning tribulation, and used the power of thunder to temper herself, pushing the true meaning of Nirvana to its extreme.

Finally, when the tribulation lightning dissipated, a majestic and sacred Vermilion Bird of Flame was reborn from the ashes and transformed into human form. It was none other than Huo Ling'er, who had successfully stepped into the realm of Quasi-Immortal Emperor!
Quasi-Immortal Emperor Huo Ling'er, accomplished!

At almost the same time, in another secluded place, Qingyi's breakthrough also reached its most critical moment.

Unlike Huo Ling'er, who specializes in one path, Qingyi takes a much more difficult one.

Over the years, in addition to the perfectly fused Azure Moon Flame and Purple Flame, she has also received three kinds of rare heaven and earth flames from Lin Shu: Heaven-Burning Golden Flame, Nine Netherworld Cold Flame, and Void Starfire.

At this moment, she sat cross-legged in a world of flames evolved from the Primordial Burning Technique, with five flames emitting completely different auras floating in front of her.

The Azure Moon Flame is as cold and clear as the moon, the Purple Flame Flame is violent and blazing, the Heaven-Burning Golden Flame is extremely yang and strong, the Nine Netherworld Cold Flame is extremely yin and cold, and the Void Starfire is ethereal and elusive.

The five strange flames have different attributes and even conflict with each other. To perfectly fuse them is far more difficult than ever before.

Qingyi remained calm, her eyes reflecting the five-colored flames. She recalled Lin Shu's words when he entrusted these wondrous flames to her: "The way of fire lies in fusion, in control."

This sentence pointed her in the right direction.

"All fires return to their source, burning away all the heavens..."

Qingyi spoke softly, slowly raising her hands, and activated the Primordial Burning Technique to its fullest extent.

She will use herself as a furnace and the Primordial Burning Technique as a foundation to completely fuse these five strange flames of heaven and earth, which represent different primordial powers, and forge an unprecedented path of returning all flames to their origin!
This process is a hundred times more dangerous than fusing the two flames before!
The moment the five strange flames made contact, they unleashed a devastating energy surge.

The gentleness of the Azure Moon Flame, the domineering power of the Purple Flame Flame, the extreme yang of the Burning Heaven Golden Flame, the extreme yin of the Nine Nether Cold Flame, and the ethereal quality of the Void Starfire—five completely different forces clashed and collided with each other, seemingly about to completely annihilate this world of flames.

Blood kept spilling from Qingyi's mouth. Her body trembled violently under the impact of the five forces, and cracks even appeared on the surface of her skin, as if it might collapse at any moment.

But her gaze remained firm as she fully activated the Primordial Burning Technique, forcibly suppressing the violent surge of the five strange flames and guiding them to slowly approach.

This is an extremely slow and meticulous process that requires a great deal of mental effort.

Qingyi's forehead was covered in sweat. Her soul was under tremendous pressure, but her understanding of fire was also improving rapidly.

She witnessed the destruction of fire, and she also witnessed its creation; she saw its fury, and she also witnessed its gentleness.

Flame is not limited to one form or one attribute.

It can burn everything, or it can warm all living beings; it can destroy everything, or it can bring new life.

This is the path she will take—to return all fire to its source and control all forms and changes of flame!

As time went by, under the harmonizing effect of the Primordial Burning Technique, the repulsive force of the five strange flames gradually weakened, and signs of fusion began to appear.

Blue, purple, gold, black, and silver flames slowly merged, transforming into a chaotic flame containing both world-destroying power and the possibility of creating new life.

When the last trace of repulsive force was completely eliminated, the five strange flames merged perfectly together, transforming into an ultimate flame that presented a chaotic color and seemed to contain the origin of all flames in the world!

The moment this new flame appeared, the fire-based laws of the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths resonated with it!

Just then, the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Tribulation suddenly descended!
The thunder was not ordinary lightning, but a fiery thunder formed by the condensation of countless kinds of strange fires of heaven and earth. It also contained the inner demon fire that directly attacked the heart of the Dao, specifically targeting those who use fire to prove their Dao.

Qingyi stood up, controlling the chaotic flame, and took the initiative to meet the lightning tribulation.

The newly formed flames displayed unparalleled power, directly devouring and refining the bolts of fire and lightning, turning them into nutrients for their own growth.

The inner demon fire was extinguished by her with her supreme Dao heart as it approached her.

When the tribulation lightning dissipated, Qingyi successfully stood in the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm, surrounded by chaotic flames, her aura vast and boundless, as if she held the power over all the flames in the world.

Quasi-Immortal Emperor Qingyi, accomplished! (End of Chapter)
